Recent experiences of this child, 
That is, of Bawa "Correcting the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), That is, of Bawa "Curing Himself of you", of "you" living as if "you" are "separate from" God, As if "you" are "separate from" each other, And As if "you" are "separate from" the Creation of God, Within God within you, all of which is "Just Not True".
That is,
"Of Bawa putting all of His Children within Himself, within "His Bag", within the "Bag or Purse of the Qutb", like so many stones of little value, with rough edges and dirt and all, and then with Bawa twirling "His Bag", twirling His Children with their faults and all, letting one stone bang off the rough edges of another, letting one stone polish the others, until "You" come out as the perfect, polished gems of God, which Bawa then hands to God, to God within you, if you like, for the Choice is yours, not God's, that is, the Choice to stay in the "Bag of the Qutb", until "He Is Done", or not."

18. Why Was Satan Thrown Out of Paradise?
Question asked by Malik (Ral.) at the Sunday Meeting, on 03-02-08
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. Satan was thrown out of paradise Either because he failed to praise God, or failed to pray to God, or failed to understand God, or failed to use God to accomplish his own personal agenda, or failed to move forward his life on the "Path of God.
Bawa. Or because satan failed to "Line up Behind Adam", that is, satan failed to do all of these thing behind Adam (peace be upon Him), that is, satan failed to "Line up Behind" what God gave satan, that God gave to all of God's Creation, at that time, to praise God, to pray to God, to understand God, to use God to accomplish your own personal agenda, or to move forward your life on the "Path of God.
Initial Review:
Bawa. Like that God gave My Children the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) when "We" were living in the world, as How You, and all of the Creation of God within you, Line Up Behind Adam (Ral.), for your age and for your life, that is, as How you, and all of the Creation of God within you, praise God, that is, behind the physical Guru, and pray to God, that is, behind the physical Guru, and understand God, that is, behind the physical Guru, and use God to accomplish your own personal agenda, that is, behind the physical Guru, and move forward your life on the "Path of God, that is, behind the physical Guru.
Bawa. And if you did not do that work, that is, become the Physical Guru by sitting behind the Physical Guru in the proper way, in the appointed time, that is, before Bawa physically left the world, for whatever reason, then This Is What You Still Must Do, behind the physical Guru, in the proper way, and in the Now appointed time, to become truly successful in your lifetime. Period.
Bawa. And Most Certainly Not Start to do what satan did in his arrogance, karma, and illusion, not Start to do what "the satan" did that caused him to be thrown out of paradise, that is, not Start to think that you can do it without being behind the physical Guru, that you can do it directly, that in your current state of "separation from" God you can somehow build a relationship of "Oneness with" God, and then accomplish through this direct relationship between "you and God", that is, between the "separate from" and the "One with", all of the things that God told all of His Creation that they could not do, without "Lining Up Behind Adam".
Bawa. That is, you did not do that work, that is, become the Physical Guru by sitting behind the Physical Guru in the proper way, in the appointed time, for whatever reason, for example, like because your faith in God was weak, or because you were too young to understand what Bawa was saying, or because you were being raised by parents whose faith in God was weak or who were too young to understand what Bawa was saying, or because you were not born while Bawa was living in the world, or because you did not meet Bawa when Bawa was living in the world, Realizing Now that This Is What You Still Must Do, but Now You Must Do It behind The One Who Did It Properly when Bawa was living in the world, and as a result has Now truly become the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Us, and with
Him) for you, and for your age, and for all of My Children.
Bawa. And in this way, Instead of this Folly of going the "Way of the satan", which all of My Children have Now Done, what you must Now Do, is again "Throw Yourself Into "The Fire of God", that is, that is, into "The Fire of God" that is Now burning in the world, which Now is Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.),
First on the "outside" of you and then within you, realizing Now, either for the first time, or this time, that in truth there "Is No Other Way", that in truth there is no other way to merge with God, to reach God, that is, to let your soul "Realize Allah", and that is for sure.
Bawa. So, either for the first time, or this time, "Let It Consume You", that is, "Let It Destroy You" and reveal God, that is, let it destroy "you" as "separate from" and reveal "You" as "One with", that is, let it destroy the "form of the satan" that is your "current life" and reveal the "Form of God" which is Your Next Life, that is the life of the Child of Light Now hidden within the "child of darkness" within you, which in truth is Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within you, and Now is the life of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) on the "outside", So you can demonstrate all of this to God, So you can demonstrate the True Disciple to God.
Bawa. That is, So you can truly become the "Child of the Guru", as you came into the world as the "child of your parents", that is, So Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral) can Now literally raise you, as your mother and father raised you when you came to them as a child, and if you, if you truly join with God to do this "Hearts Work", First on the "outside" of you and then within you, then you will become Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, as your have Now become your parents, First on the "outside" of you, as a teenager, and then within you, as Now an "adult", and then as Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, you will become the "Child of God", and God will then raise you, allowing You To Become Him, as God is Now raising this child, if you like. Amen. Ok?
Bawa. And if you truly Start to do this properly, and in the allotted time, My Dearest Loving Children, by Starting to truly accept Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), as Now such for your life and for your age, that is, as Now the Light of God for your age and for your life, as Now the Fire of God burning in the world, for your age and for all life, then God will do "Everything Else" to make your life truly successful in your lifetime, and that is for Sure. Amen. Ok?
Bawa. Please do it like this, My Dearest Loving Children, that would be Good. Good for you, and Good for "Us", and Good for all of your brothers and sisters, and in truth Good for all of the Creation of God that God placed within each of My Children, a very, very long time ago, for in truth Such is the "Exaltedness of Your Own Life", So You could come to understand them, and having Understood them, to bring them back into God, as Now "The Door", as Now "The Way", as Now the Straight Path of God for all of the Creation of God, within God within you, So in the End, there is "No Child Left Behind", So in the End, there is Nothing Still Separating God From God. Amen. Ok?
Bawa. And please realize, without the slightest doubt, My Dearest Loving Children, that it is Just As Hard for Our Dearest Loving Son, and your brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), to "Be The Choice" for your life, as for My Children to "Make The Choice", that is, to accept
Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) over "you", that is, for you to accept Him as who in truth "You Really Are", for your life.
Bawa. "We Are All One", So in truth there are No Winners In This Game of God, in this Story of God, in this Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man", except for the Creation of God, Everyone Else is God Revealing God To God, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God, No matter what Role you "May Appear To Be Playing", either the Role of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), as this child is Now Playing, or the role of My Children, that you are Now Play, that is, Either the Role of "The Choice" or the Role of "Making the Choice", for in truth it is all the same, for in truth "It Is All God".
Amen.Ok?
19. What Causes Our Mind To Truly Sit Down?
Question asked by Jean (Granny) (Ral.) at the Sunday Meeting, on 03-02-08
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. What causes your mind to truly sit down is Either "you" learning about the nature of your mind, Or "Your Wisdom" standing up.
Initial Review:
Bawa. For as "We" taught My Children when "We" were living in the world,
"Your Mind will only sit down when your wisdom stands up".
And:
"Your wisdom will only stand up when you "Call Me".
That is:
"Before you do anything "Call Me", call "Me" Jesus (A.S.), call "Me" Murugan (one of the 201 Names of Muhammad (Sal.), call "Me" Nur Muhammad (Sal.), call "Me" Qutb Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), or call "Me" Bawa Adam (Ral.), but "Call Me", for in truth "They are all One"".
Bawa. For in truth "They" are "The 6 wisdoms that surround God", They are "The 6 Faces of Clarity known as Muhammad (Sal.)", They are "The 6 Faces of God", the 6 wisdoms Now known for your age and for your life as Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.).
Bawa. And as "We" taught you when "We" were living in the world, and Now as recorded for you as Chapter 21, "The Six Faces", in the beautiful book of wisdom, "The Pearl of Wisdom" (www.ThePearlOfWisdom.homestead.com), starting on page 72,
"They are the six wisdoms which are beyond estimation, beyond imagination, and beyond pleasure. They distinguish the truth that surrounds God, discipline the body, melt the heart, and like the season of spring sprout the six kinds of wisdom."
"They are known as Kandan, Kandampan, Murugan, Velan, and Veliraivan (God of Vel), and by several other Names as well. They exist in every religion."
"People refer to them according to the depths of their understanding, but nobody has discovered the True Meaning (that in truth, Now Man and God are One, if you like), and reached the End, (Until Now)".
Bawa. All of which is Now Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), if you like, which is Now "Who You Are", is Now "Where You Are", and is Now "What Is Happening" in your life, if you like, for the Choice is yours, not God's.
20. Where Do We See Our Own Faults?
Question asked by Shams (Ral.) at the Sunday Meeting, on 03-02-08
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. You see your own faults Either within yourself, Or within others.
Initial Review:
Bawa. For as "We" taught My Children when "We" were living in the world,
"My Children, you must not find fault with any of God's Creation, you must realize that the Center is within. You must "Open Your Wisdom", Stand in the Center, and look intently at Yourself. Then you will Understand the Point."
"Do not waste your time looking at other people trying to figure out why they act the way they do, because if you do Everything will go wrong, because each person sees his own faults in others."
Bawa. And as "We" taught My Children when "We" were living in the world,
"If you see a fault in someone else, realize that "you only see it" in others because "you have it" within yourself, So instead of wasting your time looking at others on the "outside" of you go looking for examples of this fault within yourself, and most certainly you will find them, examples of this fault that you were previously seeing in others".
"Then as you find examples within yourself of this fault ask God to forgive "you", to forgive "you" for each example of this fault that you continue to find within yourself, and if you keep doing this, over and over again, for each fault that you mistakenly see in others, then when you are done this "Hearts Work", in partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, using your wisdom, which in truth is your Guru or Shaikh, which in truth is your point, or connection, or focus to God, then you will no longer see this fault in others, and this is the truth, Now for your age and for your life". Amen. Ok?
21. How Many Gods Do We Truly Have In Our Lifetime?
Question asked by Ahmad Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) at Sunday Meeting, on 03-02-08
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. In your lifetime you Either have One God, as all of the Religions believe and teach, Or you have Three Gods in your lifetime, as Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) teaches you for your age and for your life.
Initial Review:
Bawa. For as "We" taught My Children when "We" were living in the world,
"You have 3 Gods in your life, your First God is your mother and your father. Your mother teaches you about your body, and your father teaches you about the world".
"Your Second God is your Guru, your Shaikh. He teaches you about your soul and about the relationship between your soul and God".
"And your Third God is God. He teaches you about God"
Bawa. And for these Three Gods to be valuable to your life you must come to each one of them as a child, for your cannot raise an adult, and you must come to them in the proper sequence, First coming to your First God, to your parents, to your mother and father as a child, letting them raise you into your parents, in to your First God, Second coming to your Second God, to your Guru, to your Shaikh, after becoming your First God, after first becoming "your parents", this time coming to your Guru, to your Shaikh Again as a Child, as a Child that He must raise, raise to be your Second God, not coming as "your parents", not coming as your First God, and Third, finally coming to your Third God, to God, after first becoming your Second God, after first becoming the Guru, after first becoming the Shaikh, this time finally coming to God Again as a Child, as a Child that God must Now raise, raise to be your Third God, not coming as the Guru, not coming as the Shaikh, not coming as your Second God.
Bawa. This is How You Must Use the Three God in your lifetime, one after the other, in the proper sequence, letting each raise you to become Them, at the appropriate point in your life, always coming to Them as a Baby, never as "your parents" to the Guru, to the Shaikh, and never as the Guru to God, never as the Shaikh to God, always letting your Next God put down your Current God, letting our Next God put down what you are coming as, as the God you have become, and transform you into Him, into your Next God.
Bawa. For example, with you coming as "your parents", as your First God, to the Guru, to the Shaikh, letting your Guru End "you" as your First God, as "your parents", and reveal "You" as your Second God, as the Guru, as the Shaikh, and then with you coming as the Guru, as the Shaikh to God, letting God End "You" as the Guru, as the Shaikh, letting God reveal "You" as your Third God, as God.
Bawa. In this way, Always letting your Next God raise you, as a Baby from within what you have Now Become, always joining with your Next God to put down your Last God, and in this way, and only in this way, for "You" to become your Next God, and Never jumping out of this sequence, that is, Always First becoming "your parents", Second becoming your Guru, becoming your Shaikh, and then, and only then, Third becoming God.
Bawa. And Never trying to have a relationship with the God of your Next God, Never trying to jump a Step, as an excuse for not truly taking the Next Step, for not truly giving up your Last God, for not truly giving up "you" as Now having become your Last God, that is, for not truly giving up who you have Now Become, that is, the God you have Now Become, which in the case of My Children is Now your First God, is Now "you" living as "your parents.
Bawa. A mistake that My Children keep trying to do, that is, with My Children trying to have a relationship with the God of the Guru, the God of the Shaikh, before you have truly become the Guru, before you have truly become the Shaikh.
Bawa. For as "We" taught My Children when "We" were living in the world,
"The apple fruit is connected to the tree, not to the earth, and in this way, it is the
tree that is connected to the earth, not the fruit".
"And in the same way, God is connect to the Guru, to the Shaikh, not to the
Disciple, and in this way, it is Guru, it is the Shaikh that is connected to the
Disciple, not God".
"And in this way, God will only accept you after the Guru, after the Shaikh has
accepts you".
Bawa. So instead of all of this foolishness, My Dearest Loving Children, that is of "you" as "your parents, as your First God, trying to "Pray to God" directly, that is, of "you" as your First God trying to "Pray" to your Third God, without First Becoming your Second God, First become a Baby of the Guru, a Baby of the Shaikh, So He can put down your First God, and transform you into your Second God, So you can then truly "Pray" to your Third God.
Bawa. So your Second God, So your Guru, your Shaikh can truly join in partnership with God, with God within the Guru, with God within the Shaikh, that is, with your Third God, to put down all of your current foolishness, that you have Now become, that is, to put down your First God that you have Now become.
22. Who Am I?
Question asked by John (Ral.) at the Sunday Meeting, on 03-02-08
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. You are Either the "Shirt" for the soul, which is what your parents gave you, when they rolled around like snakes on a bed, a story that God then took from your parents, printed, put a cover on, animated with the soul, and then handed to you, Or you are the soul.
Bawa That is, Either you are of the Creation of God, Or you are Of God.
Initial Review:
Bawa. For as "We" taught My Children when "We" were living in the world,
"The only thing that can return to God is what came from God, and that is your soul, which is a ray of light coming to the Nur Muhammad on the forehead of Adam (peace be upon Him), in truth everything else that you are Now experiencing as "your life" grew here and in truth has no interest in returning to God".
And:
"The things that change are not your real life. Within you is another body and another beauty. It belongs to that ray of light which never changes. You must discover how to mingle and become "One with" this unchanging thing. You must realize and understand this treasure of truth. This is why you have come to this earth world."
23. What Does It "Now Mean" To "Find An Insan Kamil?" - that is,
what does it "Now Mean" for the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), To
"Find An Insan Kamil, A Perfected Man?
Question asked by "The Life" of Muhammad Abdul Lateef (Ral.) at the Sunday
Meeting, on 03-09-08
Expanded Question:
Bawa. What is, what does it "Now Mean" for Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) to accomplish the following, as described on Page 5 in the "Introduction" to the beautiful book of wisdom, "Shaikh & Disciple" (www.ShaikhAndDisciple.homestead.com), in order to become truly successful in your lifetime, that is, in this book of wisdom by His Holiness, M. R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), that is,
"The most difficult task in life is to find a True Man among the Created
Beings. To find a True Human Being and to Understand Him is very difficult
indeed. Only after realizing the True Man and God within myself could I
perform True Meditation (that is, Prayer; Zikr or Salat). I had to Understand the
cage of this body. Outer Acts Are Not Real. I had to find the place within to
perform True Meditation. At this point (in Bawa's Life") I was told (the following,
that is, Bawa was told the following by His Physical Guru, by the One who
Bawa accepted as the "Presence of God" for His Life, as the "Word of God" for
His Life, as the "Word of God made flesh" for His Life", that is, Bawa was told
by His Physical Guru):
"There is a house that was built and given to you. That house is your body?"
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. To "Find An Insan Kamil", a Truly Perfected Man "Now Means" for your life, Either for "you" to keep on reading and learning and talking about the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), that is, for "you" to keep on trying to apply the life and teaching of His Holiness to your life, day by day, moment by moment, that is, for "you" to keep on trying through your effort to develop the qualities and actions of God.
Bawa. Or for "You" to Now Accept the Facts That Now Apply to your life, and Start to Do Now what you failed to Do Then, or were Not Able to Do Then, that is, to become an "Insan Kamil" when Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) was still living in the world.
Initial Review:
Bawa. But this time To Do It using "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), as Now the "Fire of God" for your age and for your life, as Now the One who is Living In The World who truly gives each of
My Children, who have Now become His Children, if you like, the opportunity, if you like "To Get It Right", that is, "To Get It Right", either this time, or for the first time, that is, the opportunity to truly "Become The Fire of God", for your age and for all life, while you still can, that is while both He and you are still living in the world.
Bawa. An opportunity which Now applies to all of Bawa's Children, who have Now become His Children, who have Now become the Children of Shaikh
Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), as well as to Everyone Now born into the world since Bawa left the world, for in truth Now Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) and Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) are Now "One", if you like, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, if you like.
Bawa. For in truth the Choice is yours, not God, that is, the Choice to use your life Now in this way, or not, that is, the Choice to Now build your life around the life and teaching of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), or not.
Bawa. Please know this Now, and please accept this Now, My Dearest Loving Children, for in truth this is Now the "Great Opportunity" of your life, Not what came before in your life, Not the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.).
Bawa. That was for then, and any value that you could take from that experience has Now been taken, to the level that you were able to take it. But Now that opportunity is over. Amen. Ok?
Bawa. And Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) Is Now the "Great Opportunity" of your life, of all life living in your age, all of which in truth is Now the "Last Great Opportunity" of your age and of all life, Not you hanging onto the past, and to "What Could Have Been", and Not for you to keep making the same mistakes Now that you made then, when Bawa was living in the world, that is, Not to again find some excuse to Stop Stepping Into "The Fire of God" Now for your age and for all life.
Bawa. For in truth this is why Bawa came into the world, that is to reveal Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) to the world, that is, to bring Him to Maturity as Now the "Fire of God" for your age and for all life, as Now the "Presence of God" for your age and for all life, as Now the "Word of God", that is, as Now the "Word of God made flesh" for your age and for all life, for in truth Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) is Now to the Rahim of God, as the Prophet Muhammad (Sal.) was to the Rahman of God, that is, Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) in this age is Now the "Form of the Rahim" of God, as Muhammad (Sal) was the "Form of the Rahman" of God in the Last age, and if you like, Now So Are You.
Bawa. That is, Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) is Now the Beginning of God Breathing "In", pulling Everything Back into Himself, as Muhamamd (Sal) was the Completion of God Breathing "Out", revealing Everything to His Creation that was within Him, that is, with God telling and bringing to Completion the "Story of God", which First is God telling and bringing to Completion the Story of True Man, which Ends with True Man, that is, with God disappearing within Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), within the "Form of God" known as the True Man.
Bawa. And Now with True Man telling and bringing to Completion the "Story of God", which in truth is True Man telling the Story of God, which Ends with God, that is, with True Man, with Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), disappearing into God, and in this way Completing the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man", a Story that each of My Children have come to this earth world to tell, that is, to join as "One with" the "Form of God", with Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), to tell, if you like. Amen.
Bawa. So the Choice is Now yours, or not, to join as "One with" Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), to become Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, or not, that is, to Complete this "Grand Endeavor" of God revealing God to God, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God, or not.
Bawa. And if you Choose Not To, well then you must suffer the Consequences of your Choice, but whether or not you accept or reject this "Final Gift of God" for your age and for all life, or not, Just Don't Stop Others from having the opportunity to Choose, for if you do, if your life become hiding or blocking others from this "Final Gift of God" then the Consequence of this Choice will be looked at Severely By God.
Bawa. So Either Join Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), Or Not, but don't become a "Pillar of Hell", don't become 'the satan", don't become a "Sworn Enemy of God",
don't become one who blocks or prevents others from Making This Choice for themselves.
Bawa. That is, at least Stay Neutral. Decide for yourself, but don't set yourself up as who decides for Others. Please don't step in that direction, My Dearest Loving Children. Please don't do this work of "Hiding God" from Other, of Hiding This "Final Gift" of God for your age and for all life.
Bawa. Please at least don't go to war with Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), who in truth is Now this "Final Gift of God" for your age and for all life, for if you do then in the End God will most Certainly Discard you from within Himself, for eternity, as "the satan", with you then becoming one of the "Pillars of Hell" for eternty, all within Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within you, who in truth is Now the Hereafter or Akhirah, who in truth is Now firdaus, the 8th heaven of God within you, HERE and NOW, if you like, as well as the depths of the 7 hells of satan, if you like, for in truth the Choice is yours, that is, the Choice of "Who and Where" within Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) you will spend eternity. Please Choose wisely. Amen. Ok?

What you do Now, the Next Thing for My Children, for the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) is Either to "Get It Right" This Time, and if you are New to "This Adventure", to "Get It Right" the First Time, by Now becoming the Children of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), by Now learning How "Not to be there", So God can "Be There", by Now becoming "One with" the Final "Gift of God" for your age and for your life, by Now becoming "One with" the Last "Sunnah" or Physical Example of Our Dearest Loving Prophet Muhammad (Sal.), that is, by Now becoming "One with" the Life and Teaching of Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, in whom "We are well pleased". Amen. Ok?.
Bawa. Or what you do Now, the Next Thing for My Children, for the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) is to Continue to "Get It Wrong", and if you are New to "This Adventure", to Start to "Get It Wrong" that is, is to Continue to live, or to Start to live, as the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), thinking "That Is Enough", that is, is to Continue "Working for wages to get into heaven", that is, to get into some New illusory "outside" of you, better than the current "outside" of you, only in the End to become "Very Sad" when you get it.
Initial Review:
Bawa. As "We" told you would become "Very Sad" when you get it, if in your lifetime you failed to truly "Join In Partnership With God", that is, if you failed to learn How To Sit in the "Presence of God", allowing God to "Cure Himself of you", for in truth "you are God's Illness", you are what is Now "Separating God from God", within God within you, that is, to let God cure Himself of your current life of sin, that is, to let God cure Himself of "you" living your current life of selfishness, of sin, of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of yourself, with you living as if you are "separate from" God/Bawa, as if you are "separate from" each other, and as if you are "separate from" the Creation of God, within God within you, all of which is "Just Not True".
Bawa. Or, from another perspective, what you do Now, the Next Thing for My Children, for the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) is for you to continue trying to grow the "right leg" by doing battle with the "left leg", only in the End, to become the "left leg", to become the demon, jinn, fairy, and ghost that you thought you were battling in the first place, all of whom are very real.
Bawa. All of whom are the "very real but false" lives within you, all of whom are hidden within you, as hidden lives of darkness and evil that have Now grown within you, in your ignorance and Now in your arrogance about your ignorance, and who are eternal, and will not die when you die, all of whom Now rule over you as the 9 Openings of your Elemental Body, with "God's Permission", that is, until you "See God and Steady God" within you, allowing God to then Start to "Cure Himself of you".
Bawa. And then in the End, if you have not become My Wise Child, then as a demon, a jinn, a fairy, or a ghost, you Start to roam the earth world within you, until Qiyamah (the Standing Forth; the Day of Judgment), with you then taking on as part of your judgment 105 million rebirths, ending as worm in hell with only one level of consciousness, or feeling, with you then taking on as part of your judgment an eternal life within you as "separate from" God within you, all because the battle that you thought you were fighting in truth was a dream, all because the battle was just a "two headed snake", all because the battle was the "trick of satan" to keep you distracted and satisfied until "your time" was up, and you have become the "form of the satan", and within that, you have become "the satan".
25. What Is Freewill? - that is, What is the Choice Now Available to the
Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.)
Question asked by Muhammad Muhaiyaddeen Sulaiman (Ral.) of Shaikh
Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) later in the day, after the Sunday Meeting, on 3-16-08
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. "Freewill" is satan, and "God's Will" is God, if you like, and the Choice is yours, not God's, that is, the Choice between Either "Freewill", Or "God's Will", that is, the Choice to Either "Let God Have His Way" with you, Or to "let the satan have his way" with you.
Initial Review:
Bawa. That is, the Choice to Either "Let God Grow His Crop" within you, which is the "Current State" of My Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, Or to "let the satan grow his crop" within you, which is the "current state" of My Children, First on the "outside" of you and then within you.
Bawa. That is, the "current state" of this Earth World or "Room" or Heart or Mind that God has given to My Children, with you Now having become "your parents", in your ignorance and Now in your arrogance about your ignorance.
Bawa. And in this way, with you Now having become the "child of darkness", with you Now having become the Cross of Jesus (peace be upon Him), and with you Now having become the "5 nails" that keep Him on His Cross, all of which is "your desire" to live on the illusory "outside" of yourself and sin, that is, "your desire" to continue living as "separate from" rather than as "One with", that is, to continue living your current selfish life of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of yourself as if you are "separate from God/Bawa, as if you are "separate from" each other, and as if you are "separate from" the Creation of God, within God within you, all of which is "Just Not True", that is, because you are still
"Fighting with your Shaikh for your soul".
Bawa. And in this way, the Choice is to Either "Let God Grow His Crop" within you, and in the End, "Harvest You" as "His Crop", and "Claim You as His Property", and then in the End, "Take You" with Him, as "His Form" to Heaven, that is, as "His Kingdom", and within that, as Him, as God, that is, as His Hereafter or Next World or
Akhirah, HERE and Now, that is, as "Our" Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) has Now Done, in whom "We are well pleased"
Bawa. Or for "you" to continue doing what you are Now doing, Or to continue with "business as usual", which in truth is to "let the satan grow his crop" within you, and in the End, "harvest you" as "his crop", and "claim you as his property", and then in the End, "take you" with him, as "his form" to hell, that is, as "his kingdom", and within that as him, as "the satan", as the his Hereafter or the his Next World or Akhirah, as My Children have Now done.
Bawa. That is, if you don't Wise Up before it is too late, if you don't Now become "One with" this Last "Gift of God" for your age and for your life, that is, with this Last "Sunnah" or Physical Example of Our dearest loving Prophet Muhammad (Sal.), for your age and for your life, before you die to the flesh, and before "The Beast" comes out of at least one of My Children and destroys the "outside" of you for all of you, for then it will be too late to do this "Hearts Work".
Bawa. For then this Earth World or "Room" or Heart or Mind that God has given to My Children will be All Over, and then you will simply move into it, and then you will simply take ownership of it, that is, of what you have done within it, that is, then you will move into and take ownership of what you have allowed to happen within your Earth World or "Room" or Heart or Mind, then you will move into the "House that you have build", and then you will Start to experience the "Crop that you have grown", and that is for sure.
Bawa. For in truth,
"The "Justice of God"
is that whatever you intend
is what you will receive".
====================================================================
When A Disciple Is Ready,
The Shaikh Will Appear By His Side
Bawa. And as "We" taught My Children the following when "We" were living in the world, which is Now recorded for you as Wisdom Point 510, on page 212 in the original version of the beautiful book of wisdom, "Golden Words of a Sufi Shaikh (www.GoldenWords.homestead.com)
by His Holiness, M. R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), as follows:
510. When A Disciple Is Ready, The Shaikh Will Appear By His Side
"People say that when a disciple is ready, the Shaikh will appear by his side. What is the meaning?", the poet Selvaratnam asked His Holiness Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.).
His Holiness replied,
"O poet, although this question can be answered in one word (i.e, Iman-Islam), let me explain something to you."
"The outside world is merely an example which illustrates the worlds and universes within us. Every human being, whether it be you or anyone else, carries many worlds and many disciples within himself. Within your mind you can confer with kings, ministers, representatives, and messengers. You carry within you princely palaces with towers, infantries, artillery, cavalries, soldiers on elephants, navies, air forces, and many demonic forces, and you depend on their help."
"As long as you depend on the world, you are relying on these forces within yourself. But they are changing and perishable, and they can let you down."
"YOU MUST PLACE YOUR FAITH in the One indestructible, imperishable God."
"To Do This, YOU MUST STOP DEPENDING on the kings, forces, and armies within you."
"When you GIVE UP ALL THIS and STAND ALONE AND DEFENSELESS, in front of God, saying,
"O God,
It Is All Your Will!"
"Then the Shaikh will STAND BY YOUR SIDE, saying,.
"Come My Son,
Now You Are Ready,
Come, Let Us Go."
"It is only when you SURRENDER TO ALLAH, that the Shaikh, who is the explaining wisdom of the Qutbiyyat which guides you on the Path of God, will come To Stand By Your Side, saying,
"Son!",
"Now you are ready.
Come, let Us Go."
"WHEN THAT TIME COMES,
"You will no longer be the firewood (of hell),
You will have become the Fire (of God);
You will not be the gem (of hell),
But the Light within the gem;
You will not be the sun (of hell),
But the Light of the sun;
You will not HAVE the world within you,
But You will BRING Resplendence to the world."
26. Where Is Your Physical Prophet? - that is, where is your "Sunnah" or
Physical Example of the Prophet, for your age and for your life, that you must
Now praise and elevate above you, So God can praise and Elevate You Above
Him, as Now the "Duty that is Greater Than God"
Question asked by Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) for all of My Children.
Expanded Question:
Bawa. That is, as Now those who come together as "One" to protect and defend your
"Sunnah" or Physical Example of the Prophet, for your age and for your life, as Now
how "The Beast" Is finally Destroyed in your age and for your life, that is, when "The
Beast" which is "the satan" finally emerges out of at least one of My Children, that is,
out of "his mountain", and "harvests his crop", and claims it as "his property", all with
"God's Permission".
Bawa. That is, before he is blinded by the "Light of the Soul" which in truth is Now
Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, and
sent to his eternal hell, that is, is sent down the "pit of hell" which in truth are the
"1001 wells of hell" that you now call the "place of birth", in your ignorance, and now in
your arrogance about your ignorance.
Bawa That is, the "Sunnah" or Physical Example of the Prophet of God for your age
and for your life, all of which is Now "Our" dearest loving Son and your dearest loving
brother Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), in whom "We are
well pleased", So the world can rise up against Him and try to destroy Him, because
He is now revealing the True Nature of "All of the Idols" that Now fill "your heart" or
Kabah, that is, of all of the Idols of "your ancestors" which are Now all the things that
you truly believe and trust in and love, other than God, allowing "The Beast" to finally
"lick his way" out of "his mountain", harvest "his crop" and then be blinded, and then
be sent to his eternal hell, So "this world", this earth world or dunya, can finally come
to an End, and the "Next World", the hereafter or akhirah, can truly Begin, HERE and
Now.
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. Your "Sunnah" or Physical Example of Our Dearest Loving Prophet Muhammad (blessing and peace be upon Him) Is Either "You", Or "you" don't have One.
Bawa. That is, Is Either "You" and Your Guru or Shaikh living as "One Life", Or is "you" living your "current life" of selfishness, of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of you, as if you are "separate from" God/Bawa, as if you are "separate from" each other, and as if you are "separate from" the Creation of God, within God within you, all of which in truth is "Just Not True", all of which in truth is just a dream, an illusion, and in truth "does not really exist".
Initial Review:
Bawa. That is, Is Either "You" Starting to live as One Real Life, as One Real Life with Two Real Legs, as the Mubarakat, as the Rahmat of Allah, as the Wealth of the Three Worlds, that is, as "heaven and hell", as "good and evil", and as the Qualities of God, with you taking on the role of the "Shadow of the Guru", and with your Guru or Shaikh taking on the role as the "Light of God", For Your One Real Life, that is, with you taking on the role as "His Left Leg", as His "child of darkness", as "His Contrast", as He takes on the role as "Your Right Leg", as your "Child of Light", as "Your Contrast", So True Understanding can occur.
Bawa. So He can awaken the wisdom surrounding your soul, So "You" can join as "One with" your awakened wisdom against the "Enemy of your soul", which is your current life as "His Dream", allowing your awakened wisdom to liberate your soul with your Awakened Wisdom, pulling out the "5 nails" now keeping Jesus (peace be upon Him) on His Cross, that is, Now keeping your soul crucified to the Cross of your elemental body, So you can sin, So you can continue to live as "His Dream", allowing your Awakened Wisdom joined as "One with" your Liberated Soul to find and become "One with" the Nur, with the Light of your wisdom, and "Realize Allah". Amen. Ok?
Bawa. Or is "you" refusing to give up your current life as "His Dream", Or is you refusing to let your wisdom awaken from "His Dream", Or is you continuing to fight with your Guru or Shaikh for your soul, until you die to the flesh, until you die to the illusory "outside" of yourself, until you die in your current illusory state of "separation and differences", and you get your current life of "I and you", of "mine and yours" for eternity, with you taking on 105 million rebirths, ending as a worm in hell with only one level of wisdom or consciousness, or feeling, with you taking on an eternal life within you as "separate from God within you, Not because of God's Punishment, but rather in truth because that is "what you want", So what is God to do, but give you that for eternity.
Bawa. That is, Your "Sunnah" or Physical Example of Our Dearest Loving
Prophet Muhammad (blessing and peace be upon Him) Is Now "You", If you Like, that is, If you will only Now truly accept "You" as you rather than "you" as you, that is, if you will only Now truly accept the "Child of Light" as "You" rather than the "child of darkness" as you, if you will only Now truly accept Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) as you, rather then your "current life" of "separation and differences" as you, First on the "outside" of you and then
within you.
==============================================================
How The "you" Is Destroyed &
"You" Become The Shaikh, If You Like
Bawa. For as "We" taught My Children the following when "We" were living in the world, in response to the following Question,
Disciple:
"In what way, how and where, does the disciple begin to see his Shaikh within?
Bawa. And the Answer To This Question follows, all of which is Now recorded for My Children in the book of wisdom, "Questions of Life - Answers of Wisdom, Volume 1", and on the "Back of the Front Cover", in The Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship Calendar, for 2005, and Now On-line as "Spiritual Discourse 05", (www.SpiritualDiscourse005.homestead.com), as follows:
His Holiness:
Do you see hunger? Have you ever seen hunger coming on?
Disciple:
I can feel it.
His Holiness:
"Right, it is a feeling. This is how you will know the Shaikh, in your feeling. If you come to the right state, you will experience the Shaikh in the same way. You won't see Him, but you will be going behind Him."
"If you have accepted the Shaikh and surrendered to Him, you can come to that state and know Him within your body and your wisdom."
"Look at this thing called hunger. You can't see it, but within your perception and awareness, you can feel it plucking at you. And when you give it the right kind of food, the hunger keeps quiet, doesn't it."
"In the same way, if you imbibe your Shaikh in the right manner, that will stop the hunger of your karma, the hunger of your avarice, and the hunger of your desires and attachment."
"If you drop a bee into the fire, what will happen? It will burn up. The flames will consume it. Where is the bee then? The bee has merged with the fire and the fire has merged with the bee. The bee and the fire are one. There is no difference between them any more."
"In the same way, if you become a true disciple or devotee, and if you serve the Shaikh in the correct way, if you truly surrender and immerse yourself within the Shaikh, then the "you" will be dead and gone. Only the fire will remain, and if someone tries to touch you at that time, his hand will burn."
"But as long as you stay outside the fire there will be two. As long as you have qualities that the Shaikh does not have, you and the Shaikh will be two separate beings."
"Only on the day that the "you" dies will you become the Shaikh. Then right and wrong, good and bad, truth and falsehood will be understood directly. And when you see something that is right, you will always recognize it as right."
"When you are in that state, at that level of wisdom, all things will be explained. That will be the correct food to appease your hunger."
"That level of wisdom will know. There will be no room for wrong; you will be filled with right."
"But as long as you do not attain such a state, you will not have this inner awareness.

How Your Soul
Comes To "Realize Allah",
If You Like
Bawa. And as "We" taught My Children the following when "We" were living in the world, about the journey of the soul within My Children, with the soul Starting as a "Secret", as a "Silent Formless" Secret within My Children that "runs all over, like breath, smoke, or vapor, animating or giving life to the handful of earth impregnated by your parents, and if you like, if you truly join as "One with" God, for your age and for your life, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, with your soul Ending by taking "its life, its food, its wisdom -- everything -- from Allah, and for eternity Resounding the praise of Allah".
Bawa. That is, with each look, with each thought, with each smile, with each word, of "separationl and differences", of "I and you", of "mine and yours", that is, of selfishness, My Children are keeping Jesus (peace be upon Him) crucified on His Cross, a Cross that in truth is Now the "current life and state and form" of My Children, that is, with you keeping your soul crucified to your elemental body with "5 nails", which in truth are your 7 base desires, your desires to live on the illusory "outside" of yourself and sin. That is, So you can sin, that is, So you can continue living your current life of selfishness, of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of you, as if you are "separate from" God/Bawa, as if you are "separate from" each other, and as if you are "separate from" the Creation of God, within God within you, all of which is "Just Not True".
Bawa. That is, until you "Stop Fighting With Your Shaikh For Your Soul", that is, until you let your Guru awaken the wisdom surrounding your soul, and let your awakened wisdom Start to do battle with the "Enemy of your soul", which in truth is "you", is your current life, that is, until you let your Guru awaken the Truth that is Now destroyed and buried within your ocean of illusion, which in truth is Now your visual life on the illusory "outside" of you, and awaken your Iman, which in truth is "God's belief in God" that is Now buried within "your illusory belief in God", and awaken your hayat, your soul, and teach it the Nature of the soul in awwal, the beginning of Creation, allowing the awakened wisdom joined as "One with" your liberated soul to find and become "One with" the Nur, with the Light of your wisdom, and "Realize Allah".
Bawa. All of which is Now provided for your review On-line, as "Spiritual Discourse 06" (www.SpiritualDiscourse006.homestead.com) as a beautiful short discourse, given by His Holiness, M. R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), on April, 22, 1983, as follows:
How Your Soul
Comes To "Realize Allah",
If You Like
"Perrarivu is the wisdom of Plenitude. When it joins with the ruh, the soul, the ruh or soul is given Sound, and realizes Allah".
"After that the soul always focuses on Allah. All of its actions, speech, qualities, and conduct, will be that of Allah. The soul joins with Allah, takes it food from Him, and keeps on Resonating".
"Alif by itself has no sound. Purity by itself has no sound".
"Until the Qutbiyyat gives the soul a form, it exists as a secret. It has no form till then. When the form comes, it lodges in the qalb. Before that it runs all over, like the breath (alternate: smoke, vapor). People call it "life" or "soul", but the formation of the soul has not taken place. Only when Truth merges with the soul does the soul get a form. This is a great secret".
"The Physical Body functions with three levels: feeling, awareness, and intellect.
The Subtle Body works at the level of judgment and subtle wisdom".
"The Qutbiyyat (Allah's wilayat or powers) creates the (Body of) "Truth" and the "Body of the soul". It creates the "Body of Truth", so the soul can rest in that".
"Even at that point the soul has no sound".
"But when the Nur, the Perrarivu (the "Body of the soul"), joins with the soul, it gives its Resplendence and Sound to the soul. When the Sound and Resplendence of the Nur come to the soul, the soul makes its connection to Allah".
"Allah comes to the soul, and with that Sound the soul makes its connection to Allah. It converses with Allah. Then the soul is placed in the Secret Kingdom of God within your qalb".
"Now the soul is in constant communion with Allah. It has established a connection by which it can speak to Allah. It takes its life, its food, its wisdom -- everything -- from Allah, and goes on Resounding the praise of Allah".
"This is a deep and mysterious secret that man must try to understand".

How You Become The Guru,
The Guru Becomes God,
And God Becomes The True Disciple,
Three Flames as One God, If You Like
Bawa. And finally, as "We" taught My Children the following about the "Nature of the Triple Flame", about How To Become Jesus (peace be upon Him), about this "Extraordinary Process", in your own lifetime, by doing as Jesus (peace be upon Him) told you to do over 2000 years ago, and again as "We" told My Children to do when "We" were living in the world, that is,
"If two of you come together in My Name,
I Will Be There".
Bawa. And My Name is "Oneness with", for in truth this is the Great Secret of your life, this is how your illusory life of "separation and differences" can become the Holy Trinity of Jesus (peace be upon Him), that is, the Holy Trinity of the "Father, the Sun, and the Holy Spirit", that is, becomes the Triple Flame of Muhammad (Sal.), becomes "Ya Allah, Ya Rasul, Ya Muhaiyaddeen" within "Alif, Lam, Mim", all of which in truth is One, that is, Jesus (peace be upon Him) and Muhammad (Sal.) are One, that is, are the "Presence of God" for all of the Creation of God.
Bawa. That is, until Muhammad (Sal.) goes on Mi'raj and Joins as "One with" God to become the "One within the Three", becomes "One with" the Nur Muhammad, taking on the "Resplendence and the Sound" of the Nur, and then as the One Soul "Realizes Allah", as True Prayer, as the "Prayer of the One to the One who Is", as the Station of Man-God/God-Man, with God disappearing into the "Form of God, as Allah Muhammad within the Nur Muhammad within the Qutb, as the "Power within the Essence of Everything". Amen.
Bawa. All of which is Now provided for your review On-line as "Spiritual Discourse 07" (www.SpiritualDiscourse007.homestead.com), that is, as a beautiful short discourse, about this "Extraordinary Process", given by His Holiness, M. R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), as follows:
How You Become The Guru,
The Guru Becomes God,
And God Becomes The True Disciple,
Three Flames as One God, If You Like
"If you wish to reach God you need a teacher, a true Gnana Guru, a Qutb with the qualities of God; you will find all the attributes of God in this teacher"
"When you take refuge in such a Guru you will see God. You become the Guru, disappearing in Him while the Guru disappears in God (becoming God, and God disappears within You, becoming the True Disciple)"
"Three flames become One God. God is a flame, the Guru is a flame, the Disciple is a flame. As the two disappear in One, this is the Triple Flame. Children, please understand this Extraordinary Process".

"His Bag", twirling His Children with their faults and all, letting one
stone bang off the rough edges of another, letting one stone polish the
others, until "You" come out as the perfect, polished gems of God, which

Bawa. And a beautiful Spiritual Letter which "We" have also given the following
"Expanded Title" (at least in concept, if not just in words), if you like,
Expanded Title
of Spiritual Letter 134
"Join As "One With" Us On The "Outside" of You
To Become "One With" Us Within You,
In Order To Truly Become "One With" God Within You,
In Order To
Truly Understand
"Who You Already Are",
And "Where You Already Are",
And "What Is Already Happening" In Your Life,
While You Still Can,
Before This Kind of Understanding
Is No Longer Available To You,
Because You Have Become
What God Has Discarded From Himself,
In Order To Become God Within You.
That Is,
To Truly Understand
"What Can Truly Return To God Within You",
Because It Is What Truly Came Here From God Within You,
And To Truly Understand
"What Cannot Return To God Within You",
Because It Is What Truly Grew Here,
As The Lives of Darkness and Evil Within You,
And Really Has No Interest In Returning To God Within You,
No Matter What It Might Tell You To The Contrary.
And To Truly Understand This Choice,
And What Will Help You Make The Correct Choice,
Which In Truth Is Only God Within You,
And For A Little While God On The "Outside" of You,
And What Won't Help You Make The Correct Choice,
Which Is Everything Else,
No Matter How It Is Currently Decorated
On the Illusory "Outside" of You,
And No Matter How it Currently Speaks To You
As Your Thoughts Disguised As Wisdom.
And Start To Understand Everything
From God's Perspective
As "One with" Everyone and Everything,
As God Witnessing God Tell And Bring To Completion
His Story Within Him
For the Benefit of all of the Creation of God Within Him,
And For a Little While On the "Outside" of You
For The Benefit of Your Brothers and Sisters,
As This Child Has Now Learned To Do.
And Stop All of Your Current Activity
Of Trying To Understand Everything
From Your Prospective
As "Separate From" Everyone and Everything,
As "Your Story" On the "Outside" of You,
For Your Benefit,
Not For The Benefit of Anyone Or Anything Else
Amen. Ok?"

Either because he failed to praise God, or failed to pray to God, or failed to understand God, or failed to use God to accomplish his own personal agenda, or failed to move forward his life on the "Path of God, Or because satan failed to "Line up Behind Adam", that is, satan failed to do all of these things behind Adam (peace be upon Him), that is, satan failed to "Line up Behind" what God gave satan, that God gave to all of God's Creation, at that time, to praise God, to pray
to God, to understand God, to use God to accomplish your own personal agenda, or to move forward your life on the "Path of God".
Question asked by "The Life" of Malik (Ral.) at the Sunday Meeting on 03-02-08
19. What Causes The Mind To Truly Sit Down? - What causes your mind to truly sit down is Either "you" learning about the nature of your mind, Or "Your Wisdom" standing up. For as "We" taught My Children the following when when "We" were living in the world,
"Your Mind will only sit down when your wisdom stands up".
And:
"Your wisdom will only stand up when you "Call Me".
That is:
"Before you do anything "Call Me",
call "Me" Jesus (A.S.), call "Me" Murugan
(one of the 201 Names of Muhammad (Sal.),
call "Me" Nur Muhammad (Sal.),
call "Me" Qutb Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.),
or call "Me" Bawa Adam (Ral.),
but "Call Me",
for in truth "They are all One".
Question asked by "The Life" of Jean (Granny) (Ral.) at the Sunday Meeting on
03-02-08
yourself, Or within others. For as "We" taught My Children the following when"We" were living in the world,
"My Children, you must not find fault with any of God's Creation, you must realize that the Center is within. You must "Open Your Wisdom", Stand in the Center And Look Intently At Yourself. Then You Will Understand "The Point".
"Do not waste your time looking at other people trying to figure out why they act the way they do, because if you do Everything will go wrong, because each person sees his own faults in others.
Question asked by Shams (Ral.) at the Sunday Meeting on 03-02-08
Either have One God, as all of the Religions believe and teach, Or you have Three Gods in your lifetime, as Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) teaches you, Now for your age and for your life. For as "We" taught My Children the following when "We" were living in the world.
"You have 3 Gods in your life.
"Your First God is your mother and your father. Your mother teaches you about your body, and your father teaches you about the world."
"Your Second God is your Guru, your Shaikh. He teaches you about your soul, and about the relationship between your soul and God".
"And your Third God is God. He teaches you about God"
Question asked by "The Life" of Ahmad Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) at Sunday Meeting
on 03-02-08
22. Who Am I? - You are Either the "Shirt" for the soul, which is what your parents gave you, when they rolled around like snakes on a bed, a story that God then took from your parents, printed, put a cover on, animated with the soul, and then handed to you, Or you are the soul. That is, Either you are of the Creation of God, Or you are Of God. For as "We" taught My Children the following when "We" were living in the world,
"The only thing that can return to God is what came from God, and that is your soul, which is a ray of light coming to the Nur Muhammad on the forehead of Adam (peace be upon Him), in truth everything else that you are Now experiencing as "your life" grew here and in truth has no interest in returning to God.
And:
"The things that change are not your real life. Within you is another body and another beauty. It belongs to that ray of light which never changes. You must discover how to mingle and become "One with" this unchanging thing. You must realize and understand this treasure of truth. This is why you have come to this earth world.

"Now Mean" for the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), To "Find An
Insan Kamil, A Perfected Man? - To "Find An Insan Kamil", a Truly Perfected
Man "Now Means" for your life, Either for "you" to keep on reading and
learning and talking about the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.),
that is, for "you" to keep on trying to apply the life and teaching of His Holiness to
your life, day by day, moment by moment, that is, for "you" to keep on trying
through your effort to develop the qualities and actions of God. Or for "You" to
Now Accept the Facts That Now Apply to your life, and Start to Do Now
what you failed to Do Then, or were Not Able to Do Then, that is, to become an
"Insan Kamil", or Perfected Man", when Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) was still
living in the world. But this time To Do It using "Our" dearest loving Son,
and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), as Now the "Fire
of God" for your age and for your life, as Now the One who is Living In The World
who truly gives each of My Children, who have Now become His Children, if you
like, the opportunity, if you like "To Get It Right", that is, "To Get It Right", either
this time, or for the first time, that is, the opportunity to truly "Become The Fire
of God", for your age and for all life, while you still can, that is while both He and
you are still living in the world. An opportunity which Now applies to all of
Bawa's Children, who have Now become His Children, that is, who have Now
become the Children of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), as well as to Everyone
Now born into the world since Bawa left the world, for in truth Now Bawa
Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) and Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) are Now "One", if you
like, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, if you like.
Question asked by "The Life" of Muhammad Abdul Lateef (Ral.) at the Sunday
Meeting on 03-09-08
[Spiritual Email 134 (Pages 5 & 6) - Click HERE to read an On-line Version of the Original Email (Page 5 & 6) which includes an "Initial Review" of Q & A 24 & 25 & 26]
Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) - What you do Now, the Next Thing for My
Children, for the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) is Either to "Get It
Right" This Time, and if you are New to "This Adventure", to "Get It Right" the
First Time, by Now becoming the Children of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), by
Now learning How "Not to be there", So God can "Be There", by Now becoming
"One with" the Final "Gift of God" for your age and for your life, by Now becoming
"One with" the Last "Sunnah" or Physical Example of Our Dearest Loving
Prophet Muhammad (Sal.), that is, by Now becoming "One with" the Life and
Teaching of Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh
Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), in whom "We are well pleased". Amen. Ok?. Or what
you do Now, the Next Thing for My Children, for the Children of Bawa
Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) is to Continue to "Get It Wrong", and if you are New to
"This Adventure", to Start to "Get It Wrong" that is, is to Continue to live, or to
Start to live, as the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), thinking "That Is
Enough", that is, is to Continue "Working for wages to get into heaven", that is,
to get into some New illusory "outside" of you, better than the current "outside" of
you, only in the End to become "Very Sad" when you get it.
Question asked by "The Life" Sonia (Ral.) at the Sunday Meeting on 3-16-08
of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) - Freewill" is satan, and "God's Will" is God,
if you like, and the Choice is yours, not God's, that is, the Choice between
Either "Freewill", Or "God's Will", that is, the Choice to Either "Let God Have
His Way" with you, Or to "let the satan have his way" with you. That is, the
Choice to Either "Let God Grow His Crop" within you, which is the "Current
State" of My Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh
Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, Or to
"let the satan grow his crop" within you, which is the "current state" of My
Children, First on the "outside" of you and then within you.
Question asked by Muhammad Muhaiyaddeen Sulaiman (Ral.) of Shaikh
Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) later in the day, after the Sunday Meeting, on 3-16-08
Physical Example of the Prophet, for your age and for your life, that you must
Now praise and elevate above you, So God can praise and Elevate You Above
Him, as Now the "Duty that is Greater Than God", as Now those who come
together as "One" to protect and defend your "Sunnah" or Physical Example of
the Prophet, for your age and for your life, as Now how "The Beast" Is finally
Destroyed in your age and for your life, that is, when "The Beast" which is "the
satan" finally emerges out of at least one of My Children, that is, out of "his
mountain", and "harvests his crop", and claims it as "his property", all with
"God's Permission", that is, before he is blinded by the "Light of the Soul" which
in truth is Now Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and
then within you, and sent to his eternal hell, that is, is sent down the "pit of hell"
which in truth are the "1001 wells of hell" that you now call the "place of birth",
in your ignorance, and now in your arrogance about your ignorance. Your
"Sunnah" or Physical Example of Our Dearest Loving Prophet Muhammad
(blessing and peace be upon Him) Is Either "You", Or "you" don't have
One. That is, Is Either "You" and Your Guru or Shaikh living as "One Life",
Or is "you" living your "current life" of selfishness, of "separation and
differences" on the illusory "outside" of you, as if you are "separate from"
God/Bawa, as if you are "separate from" each other, and as if you are "separate
from" the Creation of God, within God within you, all of which in truth is "Just Not
True", all of which in truth is just a dream, an illusion, and in truth "does not
really exist". That is, Is Either "You" Starting to live as One Real Life, as
One Real Life with Two Real Legs, as the Mubarakat, as the Rahmat of Allah, as
the Wealth of the Three Worlds, that is, as "heaven and hell", as "good and evil",
nd as the Qualities of God, with you taking on the role of the "Shadow of the
Guru", and with your Guru or Shaikh taking on the role as the "Light of God", For
Your One Real Life, that is, with you taking on the role as "His Left Leg", as His
"child of darkness", as "His Contrast", as He takes on the role as "Your Right
Leg", as your "Child of Light", as "Your Contrast", So True Understanding can
occur, So He can awaken the wisdom surrounding your soul, So "You"
can join as "One with" your awakened wisdom against the "Enemy of your
soul", which is your current life as "His Dream", allowing your awakened wisdom
to liberate your soul with your Awakened Wisdom, pulling out the "5 nails" now
keeping Jesus (peace be upon Him) on His Cross, that is, Now keeping your soul
crucified to the Cross of your elemental body, So you can sin, So you can
continue to live as "His Dream", allowing your Awakened Wisdom joined as "One
with" your Liberated Soul to find and become "One with" the Nur, with the Light of
your wisdom, and "Realize Allah". Amen. Ok? Or is "you" refusing to give up
your current life as "His Dream",
Or is you refusing to let your wisdom waken from "His Dream",
Or is you continuing to fight with your Guru or Shaikh for your soul,
That Is, until you die to the flesh, until you die to the illusory
"outside" of yourself, until you die in your current illusory state of "separation and
differences", and you get your current life of "I and you", of "mine and yours" for
eternity, with you taking on 105 million rebirths, ending as a worm in hell with
only one level of wisdom or consciousness, or feeling, with you taking on an
eternal life within you as "separate from God within you, Not because of God's
Punishment, but rather in truth because that is "what you want", So what is God
to do, but give you that for eternity.
That is, Your "Sunnah" or Physical Example of Our Dearest Loving Prophet
Muhammad (blessing and peace beupon Him) Is Now "You", If you Like,
That is, If you will only Now truly accept
"You" as you rather than "you" as you, that is, if you will only Now truly
accept yourself as the "Child of Light" rather than as the "child of darkness",
that is, if you will only Now truly accept Our Dearest Loving Son, and your
dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) as "You", rather then your
"current life" of "separation and differences" as "you", First on the "outside" of
you and Then within you.
Question asked by Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) for all of My Children.
