In the name of God, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate. Al-salam 'alaykum wa-rahmat Allah wa barakatuhu kulluhu. May all the peace, the beneficence, and the blessing of God be upon us all. May God help us all. My love you (anbu), my dearest brothers and sisters - Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler). Outline of Spiritual Letter: 7. Understanding The Gift of God for Our Age - understanding the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) both on the "outside" of us, while He was with us in the world, and now since His passing, on the "inside" of each of us 8. Learning To Do Our Duty "Here" From "There" - as the "living presence of God" for this age, for this age of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) 9. Completing The Journey of Muhammad (Sal.) Within Us - transforming the Nur Muhammad, as the Seed of Iman, as the Seed of True Man within us, that God personally placed on the forehead of Adam (peace be upon Him) within us, which is the dunya or this earth world within us, which is the Creation of God within us, into Allah Muhammad or True Man, into the Seed of Islam, the Seed of God within us, in order to reveal True Man within the Creation of God within us, that we must then personally place on the forehead of the Children of Adam (peace be upon Them) within us, which is akhirah or the hereafter within us, which is the Creation of True Man within us, in order to reveal God within the Creation of True Man within us Text of Spiritual Letter: 7. Understanding The Gift of God for Our Age - understanding the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) both on the "outside" of us, while He was with us in the world, and now since His passing, on the "inside" of each of us We must all quickly come to the realization of what Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) has already done for all of us, for His Children, which is everyone living in the world today, and what is now our duty, the duty of the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with each of Us), to the rest of the world, which is everyone living in the world today, who don't know that in truth they are the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), which is to pray to God for them, which is to plead with God each day for them, and in each waqt or time of prayer, and with each breath, thought, and intention, for them, that God save our brothers and sisters from their own stupidity, from their arrogance, karma, and illusion, which is only further separating them each day from the love and protection of God within them, from their wisdom, and from God within their wisdom, from the Shaikh within them, and God within Him. This is what we all must now do. It is our primary work in the world, because only God can save us, only God can open our hearts to the grace of God for our age, which is the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) within us, that God personally and ever so lovingly placed within each of us before we came here, to this dunya, to this earth world, which we now call our home. Amen, Amen, Ya Rabil Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahman Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahim Alameen. Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. And this includes all of the Hindus or creation or water worshippers (which is the part of our body below the waist), all the Zoroastrians or fire worshippers (which is our stomach), the Christians or air worshippers (which is our Chest), and Muslims or light or ether worshippers (which is our head), for as such we are all One, the part below the waist, the stomach, the chest, and the head, of each of us, of all of us, is in truth One, as all of the Four Major Religions are One, and as such are in truth pointing to the One within each of us, to the "Oneness of God and True Man" which is God and True Man within each of us. In this way, Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) saved each of us, each of His Children from certain destruction, for as Bawa told us one day, when asked by one of His Children, "What would have happened to us if Bawa had not come into our life?" And Bawa said, "Most of you would be dead by now!" Such is the truth of our life, my dearest loving brothers and sisters, of the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship, the truth of a life that has only been saved by Him to serve Him, and to serve God within Him, not to live here better, or more secure, or smarter, or richer, or more influential, or more "anything", but rather to completely and willingly give up our life for His life, to completely and willingly join with Him, and with God within Him, in what He has started in the world within each of us, which is to reveal True Man within the Creation of God within us, within the dunya or the earth world within us, within the 18,000 universes within us, so God can complete what He has started within Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) within us, within His wisdom and Truth, which is to reveal God within the Creation of True Man within us, which is akhirah within the dunya within us. Please know this now, my dearest loving brothers and sisters, of the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship, and start to live and act accordingly. May we both start to live and act in this way, with this clarity, giving up our own personal life of "separation and differences", of "separation from" God, of "separation from" each other, and of "separation from" the Creation of God within us, so True Man, the life of "oneness with" God within us, can live within us. Only in this way, will our life become successful. Only then will our wisdom reason over our fate. Only then will the qualities of our inner selves become victorious over the qualities of our outer selves. Please realize, understand, accept and join with this truth of our lives, the truth of our life for this age, for this age of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), the truth of God for this age that through the grace of God has emerged from within our life, the truth that Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) within us, as the Guardian of our Soul, as the Wisdom surrounding our Soul, has awakened within the Children of God for this age, through the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) on the "outside" of us. And as such, Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) on the "outside" of us, has lovingly saved us from destruction on the "inside" of us, from an eternal life of "separation from God", if we will but accept it, if we will but join it, if we will but accept that He has, as the Shaikh within us, and as God within Him, with so much loving effort and with great difficulty, that He has, as the life within our life, that He has brought us all out of the 71st and the 72nd Groups within us, which are the Hindu, Zoroastrians, Christians, Jews, and Muslims of our age within us, as the "people of the book" within us, who love and trust in God through their ancestry, that they have received "outside" of them, not through the "living presence of God" within them, as those who love and trust in both God and in the world, as those whose words and actions are still different. 8. Learning To Do Our Duty "Here" From "There" - as the "living presence of God" for this age, for this age of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) In this way, Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), both on the "outside" and on the "inside" of each of us, every so lovingly, every so patiently, through the wisdom and truth of God within us, has moved us, all of us, all of us living in the world today, whether we know it or not, whether we want it or not, every so gradually back into the One True Group of Man for our age, into the true Hindus, the true Zoroastrians, the true Christians, the true Jews, and the true Muslims of our age, into the 73rd group, into those who love and trust only in God, either "inside" or "outside", and not in the world in any way. As those who's words and actions are One, as those who in truth are really living "there", in their heart, even while they are still physically living "here" in the world, who in truth are doing their duty to God, to the Shaikh, to the Fellowship, and to the world, from their heart, not from their mind and desire, who are doing their duty "here" from "there", not "here" from "here", are doing their duty as "One with" God, as the "living presence of God" for this age, for this age of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him). And if we do this, if we live this way in the world, doing our duty "here" from "there", from within our heart, not "here" from "here", not from our mind and desire", allowing in this way, our Shaikh within us to become our Soul, while we become His Form, allowing God within us to become the True Disciple within us, making us the Three within the Three within us, the Three of Us within the Triple Flame of God within us, as the - Disciple, Shaikh, and God - within us, within the Triple Flame of God within us, within -Ya Allah, Ya Rasul, Ya Muhaiyaddeen - within us, then we will become the 99 wilayah or Powers of God, within us. Becoming in this way, as Bawa teaches, "The Power, within the Essence, of Everything". Becoming in this way, as Bawa teaches, "The Taste, within the Juice, of the Apple." Then Adam (peace be upon Him) within us will recover from His fall within us, from His fall from the grace of God within us, and the Eye of the Nur Muhammad will once again open within us, as it originally opened when Satan approached Adam (peace be upon) within us, initially driving Satan away from Adam (peace be upon Him) within us, before God had finished creating Adam (peace be upon Him) within us, but then mistakenly closed His Eye within us, because even though the original Nur Muhammad was able to know and experience "who He was", He did not understand "who He was", and therefore could not transcend His experience of "who He was", He could not move forward on His Journey, leaving Adam (peace be upon) at the mercy of Satan. In this way, allowing Satan to have his way with Adam (peace be upon Him) within us, producing in this way, the life of "separation and differences" that we are currently experiencing, the life of "arrogance, karma, and illusion", that we are currently experiencing with our brothers and sisters, in the world that we collectively see in our ignorance as existing "outside" of us. Such is our fate, our destiny, our karma, that only our wisdom, and the truth of God within our wisdom, can win over, can reason over, can reason over this fate, destiny, and karma that we are currently experiencing, and incorrectly accepting, as "who we are", as "where we are", and as "what is happening" in our life, if we but accept Them, if we but realize, understand, accept, and join with our Shaikh within us, and God within Him, and with what They are doing within us, which is revealing True Man within the Creation of God within us, and revealing God within the Creation of True Man within us, accept and join with Them as the true life within the false life within us, as the light within our darkness, as the truth within our falsehood, as our wisdom within our mind and desire, as our human qualities within our animal qualities, as our life of "oneness with" God within our life of "separation from" God. May we all know this now, and start to act accordingly, my dearest loving brothers and sisters. And may we all do this before we die, and before the "beast" within all of us prematurely comes out of one of us, destroying the "outside" of all of us, destroying any chance of any of us getting it right before we die. It is very, very important. Amen, Amen, Ya Rabil Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahman Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahim Alameen. Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. 9. Completing The Journey of Muhammad (Sal.) Within Us - transforming the Nur Muhammad, as the Seed of Iman, as the Seed of True Man, on the forehead of Adam (peace be upon Him), into Allah Muhammad or True Man, into the Seed of Islam, the Seed of God For only then, if we become One with our Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, becoming in the way the "Three of Us" within the "Three of God" within us, as the - Disciple, the Shaikh, and God - within the Triple Flame of God within us, within the Nur Muhammad within us, within - Ya Allah, Ya Rasul, Ya Muhaiyaddeen - within us, can Muhammad (Sal.) within us complete the Journey that He is on within us. For only then, with the "Three of Us" coming to maturity within the "Three of God" within us, as the Understanding of the Triple Flame of God within us, can the Nur Muhammad within us, having come to an understanding of "who He is" within us, and "who He is" is what is within Him, which is the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, successfully arriving at this understanding because of the journey of Adam (peace be upon Him) within us, the journey of Adam (A.S.) within us from the fall of Adam (A.S.) within us to the recovery of Adam (A.S.) within us. From the fall of Adam (A.S.) within us, from the grace of God within us, because of the spit of Satan that fell on Adam (A.S.) within us, because the Eye of the Nur Muhammad within us did not remain open within us, protecting Adam (A.S.) from Satan within us, because the Nur Muhammad did not understand "who He was" within us. Resulting in the fall of Adam (A.S.) within us, separating Adam (A.S.) and Eve (A.S.) from God's grace within us, sending Them, and the main instruments of Their Final Fall, the snake and the peacock to the world, with each of them being sent to one of the four corners of the dunya, of the earth world within us, where they have stayed every since. And now, in this final age, this age of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), They are given the final opportunity to be saved, for Adam (A.S.) to recover from His fall within us, allowing Muhammad (Sal.) to complete His journey within us, His journey from the Nur Muhammad to Allah Muhammad within us, to reveal True Man within the Creation of God within us, allowing True Man to reveal God within the Creation of True Man within us, and at this stage in His journey, in the journey of Muhammad (Sal.), for the Nur Muhammad within us to understand "who He is", allowing the Eye of the Nur Muhammad to re-open and remain open for eternity within us. Such is the significance, my dearest loving brothers and sisters, of our realizing, understanding, accepting, and joining with our Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, becoming in this way, and only in this way, the understanding of the Nur Muhammad within us, allowing Muhammad (Sal.) within us to complete His journey within us, which is to reveal True Man within the Creation of God within us. May we all reflect on these beautiful wisdom points, my dearest loving brothers and sisters, they are very, very important, for all of us, for all of us living in the world today, and for everyone who has every been born into this world over the last 200 million years since Adam (A.S.), and Eve (A.S.), and the snake, and the peacock, came into this world, and in this way created the world, as we currently know it, and are currently experiencing it, without understanding it, which means we can never leave it, we can never transcend it, creating the four corners of the world we now live in, that we all now call our home, with all of this occurring after Their fall from God's grace. For as Bawa teaches us, "To know is to experience, to understand is to transcend." So, like the Nur Muhammad within us, only if we come to understand what we are currently experiencing can we ever transcend it, and what we are currently experiencing is the world of four corners on the "outside" of us, which is really "inside" of us as the four chambers of our own heart, with us living lives of "separation and differences" with our brothers and sisters within the world of four corners on the "outside" of us, lives of "separation from" God, of "separation from" each other, and of "separation from" the Creation of God within us. And only when we come to understand this, this illusory world of four corners "outside" of us, and the lives of "separation and differences" that are lived within these four corners, by becoming One with the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) within us, by becoming One with the Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, by becoming the "Three of Us" within the "Three of God" within us, by becoming the Oneness of - the Disciple, Shaikh, and God - within the Triple Flame of God within us, within - Ya Allah, Ya Rasul, Ya Muhaiyaddeen - within us, within the Nur Muhammad within us, can we transcend it, can we ever leave it, can we ever see the four chambers of our own heart, and join with God to close them down, making the Flower of the heart bloom within us, for the benefit of all of the Creations of God, which is the dunya within us, and the Creations of True Man, which is akhirah within us. Only then can we ever leave the world of "separation and differences" that we are currently experiencing with our bothers and sisters, that we currently see in our collective ignorance as existing "outside" of us, can we ever leave or escape from our fate, our destiny, our karma, that in a short time will only lead us to the Angel of Death within us, to the suffering of the grave within us, to Qiyamah (the Standing Forth; the Day of Judgment) within us, and to an eternal life of "separation from" God within us, for we all carry all of it with us, either heaven or hell, either an eternal live of "oneness with" God or "separation from" God, all of it happening within us. The choice is ours. For like the Nur Muhammad within us, unless we come to understand "who we are", we cannot move forward in our life, unless we come to understand what we currently only know, what we are currently experiencing, we can never truly move forward in our life, only then, can our soul ever return to the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, from which it came from within us, only then, will our life ever become successful before we die, and before the "beast" comes out of one of us, to destroy the "outside" for all of us. Only then, as Bawa teaches us, when wisdom dawns within us, "Can our wisdom reason over our fate". For as Bawa teaches us on page 111, in Chapter 30, "The Mystical Meaning of Man's Body", in the book, "The Pearl of Wisdom", after singing us the beautiful song, "Fate Rules Me With a Show of Scenes, What Will My Conscience Do To Me In the World?", "Son, it (your fate) will thus make you do many other things." "After a man is born, it is said by everybody that his life is controlled by fate. But Son, it is not so." "Life is the victory of wisdom reasoning over fate." Like this, and like the journey of the Nur Muhammad within us, when wisdom dawns within us, "who we are" is what is within us, and what is within us is the "Three of Us" as One, as the Oneness of - the Disciple, Shaikh, and God - within us, within the "Three of God" within us, within - Ya Allah, Ya Rasul, Ya Muhaiyaddeen - within us. "Who we are" is the "Three of Us" as One, which is the understanding of the Triple Flame of God within us, allowing the Three of God within us, the Triple Flame of God within us, to again become the Oneness of God within us, which is the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, which in truth is God and True Man within us. "Who we are" is the understanding of the Nur Muhammad within the Nur Muhammad within us. Al-hamdu lillah. Allah Akbar. Only then can They, can Adam (A.S.) and Eve (A.S.) within us recover from the fall of Adam (A.S.) within us, transforming the four corners of the world, which in truth are the four chambers of the heart, the chambers of water, fire, air, and ether, within the heart, which is the earth, into the flower of the Qalb, allowing the Eye of the Nur Muhammad on the forehead of Adam (A.S.) within us to re-open, completing the journey of Muhammad on Mi'raj, revealing within the 25 letters of man, which is the "Iman of Kalimah", revealing the 26th and the 27th letters of man, which is the Ruh, and the Nur, allowing the Eye of Nur Muhammad, the Eye of Wisdom on the forehead of Adam (A.S.) within us to stay open for eternity. Allowing Muhammad (Sal.) to complete His journey, transforming the Nur Muhammad within us into Allah Muhammad within us, and in this way, revealing True Man within the Creation of God within us, which is the dunya within us, the 18,000 universes within the sukun of the meem within us. Allowing, as Bawa teaches us, at the bottom of page 31, Chapter 2, "The Wondrous City", in the book, "A Mystical Journey", allowing, "The alif to become the pillar of the sukun of the meem" within us. Allowing True Man within us to reveal God within the Creation of True Man within us, which is akhirah within us, the hereafter within us, "here" and "now" within us, before the "beast" within one of us comes out prematurely to prevent any of this from happening within any of us. Please know this now, my dearest loving brothers and sisters, accept this truth of our lives, accept the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), as the gift of God for our age, for all of the Children of God for this age, which is all of us living in this age. May we all accept this truth of our lives, and start to act accordingly. Amen, Amen, Ya Rabil Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahman Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahim Alameen. Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. For only through the grace of God for this age, for the Children of God living in this age, not through anything sent by God before, for the Children of God living in earlier ages, but through the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), both initially on the "outside" of us, and then after His passing, on the "inside" of all of us, can Adam (A.S.) and Eve (A.S.) within us, complete Their journey back into "Oneness with" God, that Adam (peace be upon Him) and Eve (peace be upon Her) experienced before the fall of Adam (Sal.) and Eve (A.S.) within us, bringing with Them "Us" as the understanding of the Nur Muhammad, allowing Muhammad (Sal) within us to complete His journey, revealing True Man within the Creation of God. The journey of Adam and Eve (peace be upon Them) within us, and of "Us", through 200 Million years of darkness and ignorance within us, as the 9 states of Muhammad (Sal.), the Messenger of God within us, and as the 11 states of the Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) of God within us, revealing in the process the 124,000 Prophets, and Lights, and Saints, and Qutbs of God within us, culminating in the Age of Abraham and Moses (peace be upon Them) within us, from 4000 BC to 2000 BC, to the Age of David (peace be upon Him) within us, from 2000 BC to O BC/O AD), to the Age of Jesus (A.S.) and Muhammad (Sal.) within us, from 0 AD to 1000 AD, to the Age of Qutb Muhaiyaddeen Abdul-Qadir al-Jilani (may God be pleased with Him) within us, from 1000 AD to the present age, and now to the final Age of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) and the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with each of Us) within us, from 1886 AD to 2086, finally allowing God and True Man within us to complete what They have started within Us. (Note: for more on this journey, on this process, this process of Adam and Eve (peace be upon Them) recovering from Their fall from God's Grace, bring "Us" along with Them, as the Oneness of the "Three of Us" within Them, please read Spiritual Letters 26, "The Three Testaments of God", and Spiritual Letter 27, "The Three Judgments by God") For now, with the recovery of Adam (A.S.) and Eve (A.S.) within us, and with the Nur Muhammad having now come to the understanding of "who He is" within us, the eye of the Nur Muhammad does not close in the presence of Satan within us, and Satan must retreat and can never again have his way with Adam (peace be upon Him) within us, or with the Children of Adam (peace be upon Them) within us, allowing Muhammad (Sal.) to complete the journey that He was on within us, when God placed the Nur Muhammad on the forehead of Adam (peace be upon Him) within us, over 200 Million years ago, which was to reveal Allah Muhammad within Him, which is to reveal True Man within the Creation of God within us. Allowing us, as One with our Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, "To see the eighteen thousand universes" within us. For as Bawa teaches us on page 31, Chapter 2, "The Wondrous City", in the book, "A Mystical Journey", for us, ---------- Beginning of Material by Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) ---------- My children, now let us enter this wondrous house. This is the house of the Qutb, Muhaiyaddeen 'Abdul-Qadir al-Jalani (may God be pleased with Him), the house of wisdom. This is the sixth level of wisdom, the state of Qutbiyyat, the wisdom which explains. This is the wisdom of 'ilm, the state of divine analytic wisdom. Here you can find Allah, the soul and goodness. Here will be the food that is good for you, and all that is permissible, or halal. From this vantage point, let us look down and observe the city of the world, the dunya. You can see so many wonders - seventy thousand varieties of lights, colors, fruits, leaves, and other wondrous things. And yet that whole world is but a tiny dot, or nuqat, below the Arabic letter "ba" (the Arabic letter for 'b', like in the word Bawa). Everything we see exists within this dot. From here we can also see the eighteen thousand universes. They are contained within the sukun, the circle on top of the letter mim, the Arabic letter for "m" (like in the word Muhaiyaddeen or Muhammad or Moses). This sukun appears in Allah Muhammad. Allah is the support for this house, the alif, the pillar for the sukun of the mim. Once the mim is supported by Allah, it becomes Allah Muhammad. Because Allah protects Muhammad (Sal.), the world of pure souls and the eighteen universes, this house of the soul is absolutely indestructible. Have you looked at this house? It is a mystery. Do you know its length and breath or its depth? Do you know how vast it is? As you look deeper and deeper into each universe, it becomes vaster and vaster. These eighteen thousand universes are yours, and the eight heavens are yours. Whenever you wish, you may come and go, to and fro, among them. You have been given the freedom to do this. Yet man continues to live confined within this tiny dot, which is the world. How difficult he finds it to live there! How terrified he is, imprisoned in such a small place! You must think about this. My children, the world is only a nuqat, a tiny house were the creations live, but this sukun, this Rahmatul-'alamin, the grace of all the universes, is your true home, your secret house, and it is a vast mystery. You must understand this mystery, my children." ---------- End of Material by Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) ---------- In this way, if we join with our wisdom and with the truth of God within our wisdom, if we join with our Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, if we allow Him to, "Close down the world of hell within us, re-open the world of souls within us, and open the kingdom of God within us". Then our life will be victorious. Then "our wisdom will reason over our fate". Then "the qualities of our inner selves will be victorious over the qualities of our outer selves". In this way, if we join with our Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, if we join with the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) both "outside" and "inside" of us, allowing us, as One with Him within us, allowing Him as One with God within Him, to enter this wondrous House of Wisdom within us, this House of Qutb Muhaiyaddeen Abdul-Qadir al-Jilani (may God be pleased with Him), our life will be victorious. Allowing Bawa within us, and God within Him within us, to complete what They are doing within us, allowing the Nur Muhammad within us, having joined as One with our soul within us, which is the 26th letter of man within us, allowing the Nur Muhammad within us, to travel back to the Primal One within us, becoming the 27th letter of man within us, to travel through the 70,000 veils of separation within us, that we have all grown within us, since our birth. With each veil of separation from God only giving up its secrets about God and True Man within us to our wisdom and to the truth of God within us, not to us, never giving up their secrets to us in the state of "separation from" God, to us in our state of "separation from" each other, and to us in our state of "separation form" the Creation of God within us, which is our current state within us, in our mind and desire within us. And in this way, and only in this way, destroying forever the 70,000 veils of separation from God within us, only then allowing then to disappear from within us, to disappear forever within us as the life of "separation and differences" within us, the lives of darkness that we have in our ignorance grown over our soul, grown over the life and light of our soul, over the life of purity within us, and of True Man within our soul. In this way, and only in this way, providing explanations to our wisdom, and to the truth of God within us, to the Nur Muhammad (Sal.) within us, about the nature of God and True Man within us, the explanation that allows Muhammad (Sal.) within us to remove the final veil that separates True Man from God within us, to remove the final veil of the body within us. Only in this way, can this final veil of "separation from" God within us, this final veil which is our own body, can this final veil be removed from within us, by the Nur Muhammad, when He understands "who He is", and through this understanding has become One with our soul, an understanding that is given up to our wisdom, and to the truth of God within our wisdom, by the dunya, an understanding given to the Nur Muhammad within us, an understanding that can never be given to "us", not to "us" as our mind and desire, not to "us" on the way to Pittsburgh, or to Jerusalem, or to Mecca, or to our Mosque, Temple, Church, or Shrine. Know this now, and act accordingly, my dearest loving brothers and sister, and become a slave to our wisdom, and to the truth of God within us, to our Shaikh within us, and to God within Him, become the Oneness of the "Three of Us" within the "Three of God" within us, allowing the "Three of God" within us, the Triple Flame of God within us, to again become One within us, to again become One with the "Oneness of God" within us, to again become the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, which in truth is God and True Man within us. Amen, Amen, Ya Rabil Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahman Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahim Alameen. Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. 10.

Learning To Do Our Duty "Here" From "There" - as the "living presence of God" for this age, for this age of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) 9. Completing The Journey of Muhammad (Sal.) Within Us - transforming the Nur Muhammad, as the Seed of Iman, as the Seed of True Man within us, that God personally placed on the forehead of Adam (peace be upon Him) within us, which is the dunya or this earth world within us, which is the Creation of God within us, into Allah Muhammad or True Man, into the Seed of Islam, the Seed of God within us, in order to reveal True Man within the Creation of God within us, that we must then personally place on the forehead of the Children of Adam (peace be upon Them) within us, which is akhirah or the hereafter within us, which is the Creation of True Man within us, in order to reveal God within the Creation of True Man within us Text of Spiritual Letter: 7. Understanding The Gift of God for Our Age - understanding the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) both on the "outside" of us, while He was with us in the world, and now since His passing, on the "inside" of each of us We must all quickly come to the realization of what Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) has already done for all of us, for His Children, which is everyone living in the world today, and what is now our duty, the duty of the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with each of Us), to the rest of the world, which is everyone living in the world today, who don't know that in truth they are the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), which is to pray to God for them, which is to plead with God each day for them, and in each waqt or time of prayer, and with each breath, thought, and intention, for them, that God save our brothers and sisters from their own stupidity, from their arrogance, karma, and illusion, which is only further separating them each day from the love and protection of God within them, from their wisdom, and from God within their wisdom, from the Shaikh within them, and God within Him. This is what we all must now do. It is our primary work in the world, because only God can save us, only God can open our hearts to the grace of God for our age, which is the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) within us, that God personally and ever so lovingly placed within each of us before we came here, to this dunya, to this earth world, which we now call our home. Amen, Amen, Ya Rabil Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahman Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahim Alameen. Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. And this includes all of the Hindus or creation or water worshippers (which is the part of our body below the waist), all the Zoroastrians or fire worshippers (which is our stomach), the Christians or air worshippers (which is our Chest), and Muslims or light or ether worshippers (which is our head), for as such we are all One, the part below the waist, the stomach, the chest, and the head, of each of us, of all of us, is in truth One, as all of the Four Major Religions are One, and as such are in truth pointing to the One within each of us, to the "Oneness of God and True Man" which is God and True Man within each of us. In this way, Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) saved each of us, each of His Children from certain destruction, for as Bawa told us one day, when asked by one of His Children, "What would have happened to us if Bawa had not come into our life?" And Bawa said, "Most of you would be dead by now!" Such is the truth of our life, my dearest loving brothers and sisters, of the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship, the truth of a life that has only been saved by Him to serve Him, and to serve God within Him, not to live here better, or more secure, or smarter, or richer, or more influential, or more "anything", but rather to completely and willingly give up our life for His life, to completely and willingly join with Him, and with God within Him, in what He has started in the world within each of us, which is to reveal True Man within the Creation of God within us, within the dunya or the earth world within us, within the 18,000 universes within us, so God can complete what He has started within Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) within us, within His wisdom and Truth, which is to reveal God within the Creation of True Man within us, which is akhirah within the dunya within us. Please know this now, my dearest loving brothers and sisters, of the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship, and start to live and act accordingly. May we both start to live and act in this way, with this clarity, giving up our own personal life of "separation and differences", of "separation from" God, of "separation from" each other, and of "separation from" the Creation of God within us, so True Man, the life of "oneness with" God within us, can live within us. Only in this way, will our life become successful. Only then will our wisdom reason over our fate. Only then will the qualities of our inner selves become victorious over the qualities of our outer selves. Please realize, understand, accept and join with this truth of our lives, the truth of our life for this age, for this age of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), the truth of God for this age that through the grace of God has emerged from within our life, the truth that Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) within us, as the Guardian of our Soul, as the Wisdom surrounding our Soul, has awakened within the Children of God for this age, through the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) on the "outside" of us. And as such, Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) on the "outside" of us, has lovingly saved us from destruction on the "inside" of us, from an eternal life of "separation from God", if we will but accept it, if we will but join it, if we will but accept that He has, as the Shaikh within us, and as God within Him, with so much loving effort and with great difficulty, that He has, as the life within our life, that He has brought us all out of the 71st and the 72nd Groups within us, which are the Hindu, Zoroastrians, Christians, Jews, and Muslims of our age within us, as the "people of the book" within us, who love and trust in God through their ancestry, that they have received "outside" of them, not through the "living presence of God" within them, as those who love and trust in both God and in the world, as those whose words and actions are still different. 8. Learning To Do Our Duty "Here" From "There" - as the "living presence of God" for this age, for this age of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) In this way, Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), both on the "outside" and on the "inside" of each of us, every so lovingly, every so patiently, through the wisdom and truth of God within us, has moved us, all of us, all of us living in the world today, whether we know it or not, whether we want it or not, every so gradually back into the One True Group of Man for our age, into the true Hindus, the true Zoroastrians, the true Christians, the true Jews, and the true Muslims of our age, into the 73rd group, into those who love and trust only in God, either "inside" or "outside", and not in the world in any way. As those who's words and actions are One, as those who in truth are really living "there", in their heart, even while they are still physically living "here" in the world, who in truth are doing their duty to God, to the Shaikh, to the Fellowship, and to the world, from their heart, not from their mind and desire, who are doing their duty "here" from "there", not "here" from "here", are doing their duty as "One with" God, as the "living presence of God" for this age, for this age of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him). And if we do this, if we live this way in the world, doing our duty "here" from "there", from within our heart, not "here" from "here", not from our mind and desire", allowing in this way, our Shaikh within us to become our Soul, while we become His Form, allowing God within us to become the True Disciple within us, making us the Three within the Three within us, the Three of Us within the Triple Flame of God within us, as the - Disciple, Shaikh, and God - within us, within the Triple Flame of God within us, within -Ya Allah, Ya Rasul, Ya Muhaiyaddeen - within us, then we will become the 99 wilayah or Powers of God, within us. Becoming in this way, as Bawa teaches, "The Power, within the Essence, of Everything". Becoming in this way, as Bawa teaches, "The Taste, within the Juice, of the Apple." Then Adam (peace be upon Him) within us will recover from His fall within us, from His fall from the grace of God within us, and the Eye of the Nur Muhammad will once again open within us, as it originally opened when Satan approached Adam (peace be upon) within us, initially driving Satan away from Adam (peace be upon Him) within us, before God had finished creating Adam (peace be upon Him) within us, but then mistakenly closed His Eye within us, because even though the original Nur Muhammad was able to know and experience "who He was", He did not understand "who He was", and therefore could not transcend His experience of "who He was", He could not move forward on His Journey, leaving Adam (peace be upon) at the mercy of Satan. In this way, allowing Satan to have his way with Adam (peace be upon Him) within us, producing in this way, the life of "separation and differences" that we are currently experiencing, the life of "arrogance, karma, and illusion", that we are currently experiencing with our brothers and sisters, in the world that we collectively see in our ignorance as existing "outside" of us. Such is our fate, our destiny, our karma, that only our wisdom, and the truth of God within our wisdom, can win over, can reason over, can reason over this fate, destiny, and karma that we are currently experiencing, and incorrectly accepting, as "who we are", as "where we are", and as "what is happening" in our life, if we but accept Them, if we but realize, understand, accept, and join with our Shaikh within us, and God within Him, and with what They are doing within us, which is revealing True Man within the Creation of God within us, and revealing God within the Creation of True Man within us, accept and join with Them as the true life within the false life within us, as the light within our darkness, as the truth within our falsehood, as our wisdom within our mind and desire, as our human qualities within our animal qualities, as our life of "oneness with" God within our life of "separation from" God. May we all know this now, and start to act accordingly, my dearest loving brothers and sisters. And may we all do this before we die, and before the "beast" within all of us prematurely comes out of one of us, destroying the "outside" of all of us, destroying any chance of any of us getting it right before we die. It is very, very important. Amen, Amen, Ya Rabil Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahman Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahim Alameen. Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. 9. Completing The Journey of Muhammad (Sal.) Within Us - transforming the Nur Muhammad, as the Seed of Iman, as the Seed of True Man, on the forehead of Adam (peace be upon Him), into Allah Muhammad or True Man, into the Seed of Islam, the Seed of God For only then, if we become One with our Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, becoming in the way the "Three of Us" within the "Three of God" within us, as the - Disciple, the Shaikh, and God - within the Triple Flame of God within us, within the Nur Muhammad within us, within - Ya Allah, Ya Rasul, Ya Muhaiyaddeen - within us, can Muhammad (Sal.) within us complete the Journey that He is on within us. For only then, with the "Three of Us" coming to maturity within the "Three of God" within us, as the Understanding of the Triple Flame of God within us, can the Nur Muhammad within us, having come to an understanding of "who He is" within us, and "who He is" is what is within Him, which is the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, successfully arriving at this understanding because of the journey of Adam (peace be upon Him) within us, the journey of Adam (A.S.) within us from the fall of Adam (A.S.) within us to the recovery of Adam (A.S.) within us. From the fall of Adam (A.S.) within us, from the grace of God within us, because of the spit of Satan that fell on Adam (A.S.) within us, because the Eye of the Nur Muhammad within us did not remain open within us, protecting Adam (A.S.) from Satan within us, because the Nur Muhammad did not understand "who He was" within us. Resulting in the fall of Adam (A.S.) within us, separating Adam (A.S.) and Eve (A.S.) from God's grace within us, sending Them, and the main instruments of Their Final Fall, the snake and the peacock to the world, with each of them being sent to one of the four corners of the dunya, of the earth world within us, where they have stayed every since. And now, in this final age, this age of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), They are given the final opportunity to be saved, for Adam (A.S.) to recover from His fall within us, allowing Muhammad (Sal.) to complete His journey within us, His journey from the Nur Muhammad to Allah Muhammad within us, to reveal True Man within the Creation of God within us, allowing True Man to reveal God within the Creation of True Man within us, and at this stage in His journey, in the journey of Muhammad (Sal.), for the Nur Muhammad within us to understand "who He is", allowing the Eye of the Nur Muhammad to re-open and remain open for eternity within us. Such is the significance, my dearest loving brothers and sisters, of our realizing, understanding, accepting, and joining with our Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, becoming in this way, and only in this way, the understanding of the Nur Muhammad within us, allowing Muhammad (Sal.) within us to complete His journey within us, which is to reveal True Man within the Creation of God within us. May we all reflect on these beautiful wisdom points, my dearest loving brothers and sisters, they are very, very important, for all of us, for all of us living in the world today, and for everyone who has every been born into this world over the last 200 million years since Adam (A.S.), and Eve (A.S.), and the snake, and the peacock, came into this world, and in this way created the world, as we currently know it, and are currently experiencing it, without understanding it, which means we can never leave it, we can never transcend it, creating the four corners of the world we now live in, that we all now call our home, with all of this occurring after Their fall from God's grace. For as Bawa teaches us, "To know is to experience, to understand is to transcend." So, like the Nur Muhammad within us, only if we come to understand what we are currently experiencing can we ever transcend it, and what we are currently experiencing is the world of four corners on the "outside" of us, which is really "inside" of us as the four chambers of our own heart, with us living lives of "separation and differences" with our brothers and sisters within the world of four corners on the "outside" of us, lives of "separation from" God, of "separation from" each other, and of "separation from" the Creation of God within us. And only when we come to understand this, this illusory world of four corners "outside" of us, and the lives of "separation and differences" that are lived within these four corners, by becoming One with the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) within us, by becoming One with the Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, by becoming the "Three of Us" within the "Three of God" within us, by becoming the Oneness of - the Disciple, Shaikh, and God - within the Triple Flame of God within us, within - Ya Allah, Ya Rasul, Ya Muhaiyaddeen - within us, within the Nur Muhammad within us, can we transcend it, can we ever leave it, can we ever see the four chambers of our own heart, and join with God to close them down, making the Flower of the heart bloom within us, for the benefit of all of the Creations of God, which is the dunya within us, and the Creations of True Man, which is akhirah within us. Only then can we ever leave the world of "separation and differences" that we are currently experiencing with our bothers and sisters, that we currently see in our collective ignorance as existing "outside" of us, can we ever leave or escape from our fate, our destiny, our karma, that in a short time will only lead us to the Angel of Death within us, to the suffering of the grave within us, to Qiyamah (the Standing Forth; the Day of Judgment) within us, and to an eternal life of "separation from" God within us, for we all carry all of it with us, either heaven or hell, either an eternal live of "oneness with" God or "separation from" God, all of it happening within us. The choice is ours. For like the Nur Muhammad within us, unless we come to understand "who we are", we cannot move forward in our life, unless we come to understand what we currently only know, what we are currently experiencing, we can never truly move forward in our life, only then, can our soul ever return to the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, from which it came from within us, only then, will our life ever become successful before we die, and before the "beast" comes out of one of us, to destroy the "outside" for all of us. Only then, as Bawa teaches us, when wisdom dawns within us, "Can our wisdom reason over our fate". For as Bawa teaches us on page 111, in Chapter 30, "The Mystical Meaning of Man's Body", in the book, "The Pearl of Wisdom", after singing us the beautiful song, "Fate Rules Me With a Show of Scenes, What Will My Conscience Do To Me In the World?", "Son, it (your fate) will thus make you do many other things." "After a man is born, it is said by everybody that his life is controlled by fate. But Son, it is not so." "Life is the victory of wisdom reasoning over fate." Like this, and like the journey of the Nur Muhammad within us, when wisdom dawns within us, "who we are" is what is within us, and what is within us is the "Three of Us" as One, as the Oneness of - the Disciple, Shaikh, and God - within us, within the "Three of God" within us, within - Ya Allah, Ya Rasul, Ya Muhaiyaddeen - within us. "Who we are" is the "Three of Us" as One, which is the understanding of the Triple Flame of God within us, allowing the Three of God within us, the Triple Flame of God within us, to again become the Oneness of God within us, which is the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, which in truth is God and True Man within us. "Who we are" is the understanding of the Nur Muhammad within the Nur Muhammad within us. Al-hamdu lillah. Allah Akbar. Only then can They, can Adam (A.S.) and Eve (A.S.) within us recover from the fall of Adam (A.S.) within us, transforming the four corners of the world, which in truth are the four chambers of the heart, the chambers of water, fire, air, and ether, within the heart, which is the earth, into the flower of the Qalb, allowing the Eye of the Nur Muhammad on the forehead of Adam (A.S.) within us to re-open, completing the journey of Muhammad on Mi'raj, revealing within the 25 letters of man, which is the "Iman of Kalimah", revealing the 26th and the 27th letters of man, which is the Ruh, and the Nur, allowing the Eye of Nur Muhammad, the Eye of Wisdom on the forehead of Adam (A.S.) within us to stay open for eternity. Allowing Muhammad (Sal.) to complete His journey, transforming the Nur Muhammad within us into Allah Muhammad within us, and in this way, revealing True Man within the Creation of God within us, which is the dunya within us, the 18,000 universes within the sukun of the meem within us. Allowing, as Bawa teaches us, at the bottom of page 31, Chapter 2, "The Wondrous City", in the book, "A Mystical Journey", allowing, "The alif to become the pillar of the sukun of the meem" within us. Allowing True Man within us to reveal God within the Creation of True Man within us, which is akhirah within us, the hereafter within us, "here" and "now" within us, before the "beast" within one of us comes out prematurely to prevent any of this from happening within any of us. Please know this now, my dearest loving brothers and sisters, accept this truth of our lives, accept the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), as the gift of God for our age, for all of the Children of God for this age, which is all of us living in this age. May we all accept this truth of our lives, and start to act accordingly. Amen, Amen, Ya Rabil Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahman Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahim Alameen. Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. For only through the grace of God for this age, for the Children of God living in this age, not through anything sent by God before, for the Children of God living in earlier ages, but through the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), both initially on the "outside" of us, and then after His passing, on the "inside" of all of us, can Adam (A.S.) and Eve (A.S.) within us, complete Their journey back into "Oneness with" God, that Adam (peace be upon Him) and Eve (peace be upon Her) experienced before the fall of Adam (Sal.) and Eve (A.S.) within us, bringing with Them "Us" as the understanding of the Nur Muhammad, allowing Muhammad (Sal) within us to complete His journey, revealing True Man within the Creation of God. The journey of Adam and Eve (peace be upon Them) within us, and of "Us", through 200 Million years of darkness and ignorance within us, as the 9 states of Muhammad (Sal.), the Messenger of God within us, and as the 11 states of the Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) of God within us, revealing in the process the 124,000 Prophets, and Lights, and Saints, and Qutbs of God within us, culminating in the Age of Abraham and Moses (peace be upon Them) within us, from 4000 BC to 2000 BC, to the Age of David (peace be upon Him) within us, from 2000 BC to O BC/O AD), to the Age of Jesus (A.S.) and Muhammad (Sal.) within us, from 0 AD to 1000 AD, to the Age of Qutb Muhaiyaddeen Abdul-Qadir al-Jilani (may God be pleased with Him) within us, from 1000 AD to the present age, and now to the final Age of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) and the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with each of Us) within us, from 1886 AD to 2086, finally allowing God and True Man within us to complete what They have started within Us. (Note: for more on this journey, on this process, this process of Adam and Eve (peace be upon Them) recovering from Their fall from God's Grace, bring "Us" along with Them, as the Oneness of the "Three of Us" within Them, please read Spiritual Letters 26, "The Three Testaments of God", and Spiritual Letter 27, "The Three Judgments by God") For now, with the recovery of Adam (A.S.) and Eve (A.S.) within us, and with the Nur Muhammad having now come to the understanding of "who He is" within us, the eye of the Nur Muhammad does not close in the presence of Satan within us, and Satan must retreat and can never again have his way with Adam (peace be upon Him) within us, or with the Children of Adam (peace be upon Them) within us, allowing Muhammad (Sal.) to complete the journey that He was on within us, when God placed the Nur Muhammad on the forehead of Adam (peace be upon Him) within us, over 200 Million years ago, which was to reveal Allah Muhammad within Him, which is to reveal True Man within the Creation of God within us. Allowing us, as One with our Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, "To see the eighteen thousand universes" within us. For as Bawa teaches us on page 31, Chapter 2, "The Wondrous City", in the book, "A Mystical Journey", for us, ---------- Beginning of Material by Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) ---------- My children, now let us enter this wondrous house. This is the house of the Qutb, Muhaiyaddeen 'Abdul-Qadir al-Jalani (may God be pleased with Him), the house of wisdom. This is the sixth level of wisdom, the state of Qutbiyyat, the wisdom which explains. This is the wisdom of 'ilm, the state of divine analytic wisdom. Here you can find Allah, the soul and goodness. Here will be the food that is good for you, and all that is permissible, or halal. From this vantage point, let us look down and observe the city of the world, the dunya. You can see so many wonders - seventy thousand varieties of lights, colors, fruits, leaves, and other wondrous things. And yet that whole world is but a tiny dot, or nuqat, below the Arabic letter "ba" (the Arabic letter for 'b', like in the word Bawa). Everything we see exists within this dot. From here we can also see the eighteen thousand universes. They are contained within the sukun, the circle on top of the letter mim, the Arabic letter for "m" (like in the word Muhaiyaddeen or Muhammad or Moses). This sukun appears in Allah Muhammad. Allah is the support for this house, the alif, the pillar for the sukun of the mim. Once the mim is supported by Allah, it becomes Allah Muhammad. Because Allah protects Muhammad (Sal.), the world of pure souls and the eighteen universes, this house of the soul is absolutely indestructible. Have you looked at this house? It is a mystery. Do you know its length and breath or its depth? Do you know how vast it is? As you look deeper and deeper into each universe, it becomes vaster and vaster. These eighteen thousand universes are yours, and the eight heavens are yours. Whenever you wish, you may come and go, to and fro, among them. You have been given the freedom to do this. Yet man continues to live confined within this tiny dot, which is the world. How difficult he finds it to live there! How terrified he is, imprisoned in such a small place! You must think about this. My children, the world is only a nuqat, a tiny house were the creations live, but this sukun, this Rahmatul-'alamin, the grace of all the universes, is your true home, your secret house, and it is a vast mystery. You must understand this mystery, my children." ---------- End of Material by Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) ---------- In this way, if we join with our wisdom and with the truth of God within our wisdom, if we join with our Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, if we allow Him to, "Close down the world of hell within us, re-open the world of souls within us, and open the kingdom of God within us". Then our life will be victorious. Then "our wisdom will reason over our fate". Then "the qualities of our inner selves will be victorious over the qualities of our outer selves". In this way, if we join with our Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, if we join with the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) both "outside" and "inside" of us, allowing us, as One with Him within us, allowing Him as One with God within Him, to enter this wondrous House of Wisdom within us, this House of Qutb Muhaiyaddeen Abdul-Qadir al-Jilani (may God be pleased with Him), our life will be victorious. Allowing Bawa within us, and God within Him within us, to complete what They are doing within us, allowing the Nur Muhammad within us, having joined as One with our soul within us, which is the 26th letter of man within us, allowing the Nur Muhammad within us, to travel back to the Primal One within us, becoming the 27th letter of man within us, to travel through the 70,000 veils of separation within us, that we have all grown within us, since our birth. With each veil of separation from God only giving up its secrets about God and True Man within us to our wisdom and to the truth of God within us, not to us, never giving up their secrets to us in the state of "separation from" God, to us in our state of "separation from" each other, and to us in our state of "separation form" the Creation of God within us, which is our current state within us, in our mind and desire within us. And in this way, and only in this way, destroying forever the 70,000 veils of separation from God within us, only then allowing then to disappear from within us, to disappear forever within us as the life of "separation and differences" within us, the lives of darkness that we have in our ignorance grown over our soul, grown over the life and light of our soul, over the life of purity within us, and of True Man within our soul. In this way, and only in this way, providing explanations to our wisdom, and to the truth of God within us, to the Nur Muhammad (Sal.) within us, about the nature of God and True Man within us, the explanation that allows Muhammad (Sal.) within us to remove the final veil that separates True Man from God within us, to remove the final veil of the body within us. Only in this way, can this final veil of "separation from" God within us, this final veil which is our own body, can this final veil be removed from within us, by the Nur Muhammad, when He understands "who He is", and through this understanding has become One with our soul, an understanding that is given up to our wisdom, and to the truth of God within our wisdom, by the dunya, an understanding given to the Nur Muhammad within us, an understanding that can never be given to "us", not to "us" as our mind and desire, not to "us" on the way to Pittsburgh, or to Jerusalem, or to Mecca, or to our Mosque, Temple, Church, or Shrine. Know this now, and act accordingly, my dearest loving brothers and sister, and become a slave to our wisdom, and to the truth of God within us, to our Shaikh within us, and to God within Him, become the Oneness of the "Three of Us" within the "Three of God" within us, allowing the "Three of God" within us, the Triple Flame of God within us, to again become One within us, to again become One with the "Oneness of God" within us, to again become the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, which in truth is God and True Man within us. Amen, Amen, Ya Rabil Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahman Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahim Alameen. Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. 10.
