A Letter of Knowledge in Modern Style (9)
Tags:
1. My cazizan in London: Ya cAli Madad! Prophets, Imams (i.e., awliya'), Perfect Men (i.e., kamilin), and those who attain macrifat (i.e., carifin) see and attain the recognition of resurrection, spirituality, the hereafter, and paradise in this very world. See three of its many proofs in the verses: 17:72, 47:6, 76:20. Think also of hadith-i nawafil and [the state of] merging in God (fana' fi'llah): When God becomes the eye of His servant, what can remain invisible in that state? This shows that the Divine treasures contain every blessing, and to acquire which, one needs determination and knowledge. Indeed, God's mercy transcends everything.
2. The law of the Single Soul (nafs-i wahidah) is definite and immutable for paradise. According to it, everyone's spiritual and intellectual birth takes place in his [i.e., the Single Soul's] personal world (31:28). This means that people experience all the events of resurrection in the soul (batin) of the Single Soul. Moreover, God asks people: "Am I not your Lord?" 7:172] in his [i.e., the Single Soul's] Sacred Sanctuary, only when at that level of upbringing, people have become Monoreality by merging in the Image of the Compassionate (surat-i Rahman).
3. The supreme definition of Monoreality is that it is the Image of the Compassionate (surat-i Rahman), which is also the ta'wil of the pictures in the bazaar of paradise (Hazar Hikmat, hikmat 512). While writing this letter to the cazizan of London, this unique ta'wil is also revealed that our pre-eternal oneness is the Image of the Compassionate, which is also everyone's Monoreality, and it is present in the Sacred Sanctuary. Thus, it has now become comprehensible to say that I live in all [my] cazizan and that they dwell in me. However, this reality will become apparent and miraculous in the universal paradise.
4. Our own beloved souls in London are: Doctor Faquir Muhammad sahib Hunzai, Samsam Rashida Noormohamed-Hunzai, Zahir Lalani, Eshrat Rumi Zahir, Durr-i Maknun Zahir. These five angels, in addition to having many other virtues, are also Life Governors. Amin Kotadia, Maryam Amin, Salman Amin, Abuzarr Amin, Abdur Rahman, Nimet Rahman, Farid Rahman, Khalil Rahman, Mehboob Chatur, Feroza Mehboob, Zulfiqar Jamani, Farhat Jamani, Raziuddin Jamani.
