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."

30. How Do You "Change" What You Now Identify With?
Question asked by Musa (Ral.) at the Saturday Night Meeting on 3-29-08
Expanded Question:
Bawa. That is, How do the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) Stop Identifying with the "Shirt of the soul", as "Who you are", as "Where you are", and as "What is happening" in your life, and Instead, Start To Identify with your "soul".
Bawa. That is, How Do My Children Stop Identifying with the life and consciousness of the "Shirt of the soul" which in truth is the "life and state and form" that your parents gave to you, and has Now come to maturity, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, all of which in truth is Now what defines you, is Now what defines you as "separate from", that is, with you Now living a life of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of yourself, as if you are "separate from" God/Bawa within you, 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", but all the while with you feeding all of the lives of darkness and evil within you, with your every look, thought, and action.
Bawa. That is, How Do you Stop Identifying with what you have Now become, and Start to Identify with what God Created You To Become, that is, to Stop Identifying with your current life which in truth is the "life and state and form" of "the satan" within you, of "the satan" who is always talking to you as "your thoughts", and is always in front of you as "your visual scenes", but which in truth is the Ego, or your mind and desire, is your Nafs Ammarah, or your 7 base desires, and is Maya, or the illusory scenes shown to you as the world..
Bawa. That is, How Do you Stop Identifying with the consciousness of darkness and evil within you which always "Eases, God, Out" of everything that you are experiencing, always placing you "Front And Center" in everything that you think that "you are doing", all of which in truth is just God's First School, the "School of Contrast", were God has sent the soul to teach the soul about who it "Already Is", by First teaching the soul about what is Now "separating the soul from God", that is, "separating the soul" from who in truth it "Already Is".
Bawa. All of which is Now "separating your soul" from God within you, all of which "you" having Now become, in your ignorance, and Now in your arrogance about your ignorance, that is, all of which having Now become what Now defines you, that Now defines you as "separate from", rather than as "One with", which is the Nature of God and of your soul.
Bawa. That is, with you Now having become the "Opposite" of the Nature of God and of the soul, with you Now having become "The Contrast" to the soul, So True Understanding can occur for the soul, not for "you", not for "The Contrast", since True Understanding only occurs through Contrast, with you Now having become that "Contrast, "The Contrast" of the soul.
Bawa. And in this way, with you Now having become the "Enemy of the soul", with you Now having become what is Now covering the soul, preventing the soul from returning to God, that is, with you Now having become what is Now keeping Jesus (peace be upon Him) nailed to His Cross with the 5 nails of "your desire" to live on the illusory "outside" of you and sin, that is, to .
Bawa. In this way, with you having Now become what is Now "separating the soul" from God, So the soul can Now Understand who it "Already Is", that is, if you will only let It, that is, if you will only join as "One with" God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to let "Your wisdom reason over your fate", that is, to let God "Cure Himself of you", to Cure Himself of the "Contrast to the soul", with this "Contrast of the soul" having Now become "who you are", and "where you are", and what is "happening in your life".
Bawa. All of which has Now become the consciousness of your mind and desire, that is, of your arrogance, karma, and illusion, all of which has Now become the "current life" of all of My Children, the current life of "separation from", that is, the current life of "I and you", of "mine and yours" of all of My Children, which in truth is just a life of sin, of selfishness, that is only leading you to hell, to an eternal life within you as "separate from" God within you, and that is for sure.
Bawa. But All of which has to Now leave My Children, if you are ever to become successful in your lifetime, that is, this life as Now the "Contrast of the soul", this life as Now the "Enemy of the soul", or at least truly Start to leave My Children in partnership with God, in your lifetime, that is, before you die to the flesh, if My Children are to ever successfully complete the journey of your soul, which is the journey of truth back to God, by My Children Now joining in partnership with God, joining as "One with" God, before you die to the flesh, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, which Now for your age and for your life Now Means joining in partnership, as "One with" Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), in whom "We are well pleased", First on the "outside" of you and then within you. Amen. Ok?.
Bawa. And in this way, and only in this way, for My Children to at least Start to Identifying with your "soul", and with the wisdom surrounding your soul, and this journey of truth of the soul, as in truth "Who You Are", as in truth "Where You Are", and as in truth "What Is Happening" in your life, in order to awaken the wisdom surrounding your "soul", So the wisdom surrounding your soul can Start to do battle with the "Enemy of your soul", which in truth is Now "you", So your "current life" of darkness, of "the satan" can Start to Leave, So your "Next Life" of Light, your "Next Life" of Jesus (peace be upon Him) off of His Cross, that is, So your "Next Life" of your awakened wisdom joined as "One with" your liberated soul, in search of the Nur, in search of the Light of your wisdom, can Begin.
Bawa. That is, So Your Next "Life and State and Form" as Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), in whom "We are well pleased", can Start to appear in My Children, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, can Start to come forward within you.
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. You can "Change" What You Now Identify With, Either by you continuing to describe in increasing levels of detail "What" has to be transcended, that is, a description of "What" currently is defining you, which in truth is "What" is currently defining all of My Children, and a description of "What" Next Needs to define you, which in truth is what Next Needs to define all of My Children.
Bawa. Or by you joining in partnership with God, for your age and Now for your life, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to become what Next Needs to define you, which in truth is Now Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), in whom "We are well pleased", First on the "outside" of you and then within you.
Initial Review:
Bawa. And Then, that is, after you have actually done it yourself, after you have truly become "What Is Next" for all of My Children, as Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) has Now done, in whom "We are well pleased", for you to then help others also do it, by you not only telling them "What to Do", as you are Now doing, but "You" as Now the "Presence of God", but "You" as Now the "Word of God made flesh", for your age and for all life, by "You" letting "God Explain to His Children", who have Now become "Your Children" How to Do It, that is, by,
"Using God to get to God", and by
"Using the World to get rid of the World".
Bawa. That is, by you,
"Letting God Cure Himself of you", by you
"Stepping Back So God Can Step Forward", by you
"Saying The Name of Your Guru", by you "Saying Bawa",
before you do Anything, that is,
before you "Say, or Do, or Write" Anything,
as this child is Now doing.
Bawa. That is, by you,
Handing Back To God Everything That God Hands To You,
Which In Truth Everything That Comes To You,
After Briefly Reflecting Upon It,
But Never Acting Upon It
Saying To God,
"Thank You O God.
No Thank You O God.
What's Next?"
Bawa. For then and only then,
When God Has Handed You Everything,
And You Have Handed it All Back,
Will God Then Hand You Himself,
Because Then and Only Then,
Have You Used Your Life Correctly, That is,
To Demonstrate To God That In Truth
"You Do Not Exist", That In Truth
"There Is Nothing Other Than God", That In Truth
"You Want Nothing", And In Truth
"That Nothing, That No-Thing, Is God".
Amen. Ok?
Bawa. That would be very good. Good for you, Good for Us, Good for all of My Children, and Good for all of the Creation of God within God within you. Amen. Ok?
31. What Do Psychologist "Never" Talk About? - but that "The Religious" always talk about, and that the Psychologist "Always" talks about but that "The Religious" never talk about, both of which My Children must Now join in
Partnership with God, that is, as "One with" God, to get rid of, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, before you die to the flesh, by Now joining in Partnership with Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), in whom "We are well Pleased", that is, with My Children Now becoming "One with" Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you
Question asked by "The Life" of Locke (Ral.) at the Sunday Meeting on 3-30-08
Expanded Question:
Bawa. What Do Psychologist "Never" Talk About because It would instantly Put
Them Out of Business, that is, what is the One Thing that Religions Always Talk About because it instantly Puts Them In Business, but that Psychologists Never Talk About, because It would instantly Put Them Out of Business.
Bawa. And in a Similar way, what is the One Thing that Psychologists Always Talk About because it instantly Puts Them In Business, but that "The Religous" Never Talk About, because It would instantly Put Them Out of Business.
Bawa. And in the same way, what are the Two Things that My Children, that the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) Never Put Together, never talk about at the Same Time, that is, never talk about as in truth the Same Thing, as the One Thing that is Now "separating you" from God, because it would instantly Put You Out of Business, because it would instantly End your "current life" of sin, of selfishness, of "separate from", of "separation and differences", because it would instantly Destroy "you" and Reveal God within you.
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. What the Psychologist will "Never" Talk About is Either what the
Psychologist does not think in all honesty is best for his patient to hear, as what "The Religious" will Never Talk About is what in all honesty they do not think is best for their followers to hear.
Bawa. Or what the Psychologist will "Never" Talk About is what in truth the Psychologist does not want to think about, talk about, or hear himself, which in truth is the "very real but false" inside of both the Psychologist and of his patents, that is, which in truth is the current "life and state and form" of sin and evil of both the Psychologist and of his patents, a current "life and state and form" of sin and evil that Now literally defines both the Psychologist and each of his patients, even though the Psychologist sets himself up as the Example for others to follow, for such is the hypocrisy of their lives.
Bawa. Or what "The Religous" will "Never" Talk About is what in truth "The Religous" does not want to think about, talk about, or hear himself, which in truth is the "illusory" outside of both "The Religous" and of his followers, which in truth are all of the attachments of all of the Creation of God that have Now grown within them, in their ignorance and Now in their arrogance about their ignorance..
Initial Review:
Bawa. All of which in truth, that is, the current "life and state and form" of sin and evil of the Psychologist and of his patients, is causing all of the problems that the Psychologist and his patients come together to resolve, but which in truth they have both learned to completely ignore, treating this truth as if it did not exist, that is, treating their current "life and state and form" of sin and evil as if it did not exist, treating it very nicely as "The Elephant in The Room", that is, an Elephant that nobody even acknowledges as present, although it is always present, all the time, almost completely filling the room, with its presence, with its smell, let alone with its feces and urine.
Bawa. But this "Elephant" in the "Psychologist's Room" is in truth the very "Stuff of Religion", which the Religious use to "fill their one-span stomach", and to build all of their Churches, Mosques, and Temples, as well as Now to build their Colleges and Universities, where they can endless talking about the Sin and Evil of everyone living in the world, but certainly to No Avail, either to themselves or to anyone else, because in truth "The Elephant In The Room" for the Religions is Now the "Flip Side" of the "Elephant In The Room" for the Psychologist.
Bawa. That is, "The Elephant In The Room" for the Religions is the Attachments of the Creation of God, that the Religious will "Never Talk About", the Attachment of the Creation of God that everybody has, but that nobody will talk about as bad, or evil, or sinful, or even connect it in any way to what they do talk about all the time, which is "their bread and butter", which is the Sin and Evil of the world
Bawa. That is, the "Attachments of the Creation of God" that nobody will give up, in order to reach God, in order to find and merge with God, in order to accomplish all of the things that the Religious endlessly talk about, that is, in order to change your current "life and state and form" of Sin and Evil, into the "Life and State and Form" of God.
Bawa. That is, to change your "current life" of Sin and Evil into the "Life and State and Form" of God, or at least truly Start to, before you die to the flesh, that is, changing it First into Moses (peace be upon Him), as your Wisdom, as the "Presence of God", with you having joined as "One with" God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, in order to Understand and then Close Down the 10 Openings of your elemental body.
Bawa. And in this way, with you joining as "One with" God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to close down the world of hell, of jinns, and of fairies within you, which in truth are the "current sections" of hell within you, that is, below the waist, which is false creation, your stomach, which is false destruction, and your chest, which is false life.
Bawa. And Second, to change it all into Jesus (peace be upon Him), as the liberated soul joined as "One with" the awakened wisdom, in search of the Nur, in search of the Light of your wisdom, with you Now having Understood and Transcended what is truly "separating you from God", Third as Muhammad (blessing and peace be upon Him), as True Prayer, as the "Prayer of the One to the One who Is", with you Now having Completed The Straight Path, the Way of the Lord, for all of the Creation of God, within God within you, and Fourth into True Man, as Now the "Form of God", as Now the "Duty that is Greater Than God", with you Now as "One with" God, and God Now as "One with" You, as the "Sound of God", as the "Sound of the One becoming the Three and of the Three becoming the One", Three Times. Amen. Ok?.
Bawa. Again an "Elephant in the Room", but this time for the Religions, again an Elephant that nobody in the Religions even acknowledges as present, although it is always present, and almost completely fills the room, with its presence, with its smell, let alone with its feces and urine, all of which in truth is the very source of the Evil and Sin that the Religious endlessly talk about, between themselves and to their followers, but a Topic or Subject, that is, these "Attachments of the Creation of God", that the Religious will never address, because it would "Put Them Out of Business", Instantly, and they know it.
Bawa So this is why the Psychologist will "Never" talk about Sin and Evil, because it would literally "Put Them Out of Business", and from the other perspective of the Same Thing, of this One Thing, this is also why the Religions will Never Talk About the "Attachments of the Creation of God", because it would also literally "Put Them Out of Business".
Bawa. And this is what the Religions will Never Talk About which in truth is what the Religions do not want to think about, talk about, or hear themselves, which in truth is all of their attachments to the world which they have also failed to give up, or transcend, even though they set themselves up as the Example for others to follow, for such is the hypocrisy of their lives.
Bawa. That is, all of the attachments of the Creation of God, that everybody has, but nobody will let go of, all of which in truth is leading everyone to hell, attachments to your body, and to the world, including all of the things that you see and hear, and know, and understand, and do, including everything that you have Now experienced as "your life", like your family, including your mother and father, your wife or your husband, or today Now your companion or life partner, and your children. And everything else in "your life" like your job, including your skills, your talents, your accomplishments, and all of your friends, all of which in truth are Now "Separating the Creation of God" within you from God within you.
Bawa. "The Attachments of the Creation of God" which in truth are the very Substance and Topic that make up the Religious Scriptures worshipped, sung, and quoted, by the Religious, every Saturday, Sunday, and Now Friday, but in truth are
leading everyone to hell.
Bawa. But these very same "Attachments of the Creation of God" are the very "Stuff of Psychology", are the very thing that the Psychologist uses to "fill their one-span stomach", and to put their children through school, by endless talking about the Attachments of the Creation of God, with each other, and with their patients, but Again certainly to No Avail, because in truth "The Elephant in the Room" of the Psychologist" is the real problem, not anything that the Psychologist and his patients endlessly talk about.
Bawa. That is, the real problem is the "life and state and form" of sin and evil of both the Psychologist and of his patient, which neither the Psychologist or his patiends can solve, without the direct intervention of God, for in truth this is the real problem, "Lack of Faith In God", or "Weakness in Faith in God", and is the source of all the "Attachments of the Creation of God" that they endlessly talk about, but a Topic or Subject, that is, their "life and state and form" of sin and evil, but a Topic or Subject that the Psychologist will never address, because it would "Put Him Out of Business", Instantly, and he knows it.
Bawa. And So To, this is "The Problem" Now facing all of My Children, the failure of My Children to put these two things together in your life, to begin to see them "As One", that is, the current "outside" of you which is a dream, an illusion, and the current "inside" of you which is very, very real, but false, all of which are the lives of darkness, of sin, of evil, that you have Now allowed to grow within you, and have Now come to maturity within you, as a demon, a jinn, a fairy, and a ghost, in your ignorance, and Now in your arrogance about your ignorance.
Bawa. That is, all of the lives of darkness, of sin, of evil that Now live hidden within you, that "We" keep telling you about, that in the End will be your destruction, but which is Now hidden from your view, hidden by your "current life" on the illusory "outside" of you, as your "current life", as the "Attachments of all of the Creation of God".
Bawa. So you can truly live in "Denial of The Truth" of you, that in truth you have become the "life and state and form" of "the satan", that is, that you have become the "life and state and form" of Sin and Evil.
Bawa. All of which is Now being experience by you on the illusory "outside"
of you, not as the "life and state and form" of Sin and Evil within you, but rather as the "Attachments of the Creation of God" on the illusory "outside" of you, but when the veil drops, that is, when the "outside" of you is over, that is, when you die to the flesh, all that will remain will be the "very real but false" inside of you.
Bawa. All that will remain of you, if you have Not Become My Wise Child, is what is now hidden inside of you, which is a demon, jinn, fairy, and a ghost, all of which then becomes your eternal life until Qiyamah (the Standing Forth; the Day of Judgment), when finally God will pass judgment upon you, and sends you to some level of hell, because you failed to join in partnership with God Here and Now.
Bawa. So God could pass judgment upon all of the Creation of God within you, Here & Now, which in truth is "Why You Came Here", to this earth world, that is, to become Jesus (peace be upon Him), to become "The Door", to become "The Way" for all of the Creation of God, within God within you, with you joining as "One with" God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you.
Bawa. That is, to remove Jesus (peace be upon Him) from His Cross, by allowing the Qutb of God, your wisdom, which is Moses (peace be upon Him) to pull out the 5 nails from His Cross, which in truth are your desires to live on the illusory "outside" of you and sin, that is, to continue living your current life of "separation and differences".
Bawa. So your liberated soul joined as "One with" your awakened wisdom could find and merge with the Nur and then "Realize Allah", that is, So Muhammad could then establish True Prayer within you, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within you, 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. Amen. Ok?

Bawa. For example, that in truth God in the world is Seen as His Qualities and His Actions. That is, How do My Children Now Demonstrate to God within you that you Understand and Truly Believe This on the "outside" of you?

Amen. Ok?
35. How Do You Begin, Do, and Complete The Hajj? - and what are you Now
Doing in your life that will Either Truly Move "You" Forward on this Journey of
your soul, Or Truly Prevent "you" from accomplishing this "Hearts Work" in
your lifetime.
Question asked by Musa (Ral.) at the Sunday Meeting on 4-06-08
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. My Children can Begin, Do, and Complete the Hajj Either by "you"
learning about the Journey of Hajj, by "you" reading about it, and by "you" listening to what other people have to say about Hajj, including those who truly believe they have gone on Hajj, and as such who talk about their experience on Hajj, and how that experience has changed their life, as was done by Musa (Ral.) and by Jacob (Ral.) and by others at the last Sunday Meeting, and then at some point in your life for you to go on Hajj, if you like..
Bawa. Or by "You" placing all of your trust in God, and in God alone, by "You" Starting to say the Word "Bawa" before you "say or do or write" anything, as this child has Now learned to do, and by "You" Starting to Sit in the "Presence and Word of God" Now for your age and for your life, as much as you can, as often as you can, So God can truly "Cure Himself of you", of both the '"very real but false" inside of you, and of the illusory "outside" of you, which in truth are one, are the one thing separating God from God within you, if you like, and Now for your age and for your life, this "Presence and Word of God" is Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brothers Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), if you like, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, in whom "We are well pleased".
Initial Review:
Bawa. That is, by you calling "Bawa", by you saying the Word "Bawa", before you "say or do or write" anything, as this child has Now learned to do, and as "We" told all of My Children to do when "We" were living in the world.
Bawa. And in this way, and only in this way, with you establishing the "Presence of God" within you, before you "say or do or write" anything, allowing God within you to "Cure Himself of you", that is, to "use the world to remove the world" by revealing "Your Truth" hidden within "your falsehood", by revealing "Your Good Qualities" hidden within "your bad qualities", by revealing "God's belief in God", God's Iman, hidden within "your belief in God.
Bawa. That is, allowing God to cure Himself of "you", of "you" living in your current "life and state and form" on the illusory "outside" of you, that is, with "you" Now living on the "illusory outside of you", as if you are "separate from" Us, 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", all of which in truth is Now the "life and state and form" of "the satan" within you, that is, within your "heart" or "mind" or "room", and within that, is "the satan", that is, is what God has Now discarded to Become God within you, and what God must Again discard, but this time within you, that is, within your "heart" or "mind" or "room", for You to become True Man within God within you, if you like.
Bawa. For the Choice is yours, not God's, that is the Choice to use your life in this way, or not, that is, the Choice to Now let "God have His Way" with you, as you earlier let "the satan" have his way with you. Amen. Ok?
Bawa. For in truth, as "We" taught My Children the following while "We" were still living in the world,
"Before you do Anything Call Me,
Call Me Jesus (peace be upon Him),
Call Me Murugan (A.S.)
(one of the 201 Names of Muhammad),
Call Me Nur Muhammad (Sal.),
Call Me Qutb Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.),
or Call Me Bawa Adam (Ral.),
They are All One, but Call Me."
And:
"Your mind will only sit down
when your wisdom stands up,
and your wisdom will only stand up
when you Call Me."
And:
"When I leave the world I will go into the hearts of all of My Children and then Sit in Your Heart and Wait for You to Task Me."
"And when it is All Over and if things do not turn our the way you hoped they would, and at that time if you ask Me what went wrong, that is, "Why did things turn out for me this way?", Then at that time I will tell you, I will tell you it was because "You Never Tasked Me".
"That is, you never gave Me Something To Do, Anything to do, you never made Me Truly Part of Your Life, you never joined as "One with" Me, you never let Me make "You And Me" One, you never let Me intervene in your life, you never let Me awaken your wisdom and liberate your soul, joining your awakened wisdom and your liberated soul as One, as Jesus (peace be upon Him) Now off of His Cross, you never let Me transform your "1001 wells of hell" into the "Crystal Heart".
"That is, into the Palace of the soul, into the House of wisdom, into the House of Qutb Muhaiyaddeen Abdul-Qadir al-Jilani (may God be pleased with Him), and in this way, into the Ship of the Qutb, which in truth is the 11 Weapons of the Qutb, into the One Passenger for that Ship, which is Muhammad (blessing and peace be upon Him), allowing your soul to take on the Resplendence and the Sound of the Nur, of the light of your wisdom and "Realize Allah".
"Instead you tried to do it all yourself, and for this reason all I could do for you was just "Sit and Watch You", as you grew the fire wood that would, in the End, burn you in hell".
36. What Is The Significance of The "Black Stone"? - and what is the true significance of your struggle to Either reach and kiss the "Black Stone" when you go to Mecca, and find eternal peace in your lifetime, Or of you continuing to become subject until the End, to all of the illusory forces surrounding this struggle
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. The Significance of the "Black Stone" at the Kabah in Mecca, and the Struggle to reach it, and kiss it, for both men and women, is Either for "you" to complete that outer requirements of your journey to Mecca in your lifetime, completing the Fifth Outer Obligation, or "Pillar of Islam" in the Islamic tradition.
Bawa. Or for "You" to overcome the "spit of satan", and the "black magic" of satan that caused the original fall of the Adam (peace be upon Him) from God's grace, sending Adam and Eve (peace be upon Them) to this earth world, that is, for "You" Now as the Children of Adam (peace be upon Him) to overcome the "sperm of your father" and the "ovum of your mother", which has Now caused the fall of the Children of Adam (peace be upon Him) from God's grace, and has also brought each of My Children to this earth world.
Initial Review:
Bawa. Such is the true significance of this Stuggle to reach and kiss the "Black Stone" in the Kabah in Mecca, for both males and females, with the males lining up parallel to the "Black Stone", and the females lining up perpendicular to the "Black Stone" both pushing and shoving to reach the "Black Stone" at the same time, creating a maelstrom of confusion for all who visit the Kabah and take on this journey of life and death, that is, this path of truth to awaken your wisdom and liberate your soul, before you die to the flesh, before the illusory "outside" of you is gone, allowing your soul to return to God, but this time with an understanding of its Purity, this time within you, if you like.
Bawa. For the Choice is yours, not God's, that is, the Choice to Now join as "One with" God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to let God "Cure Himself of you", that is, to cure Himself of "you" living on the illusory "outside" of yourself as a male or female engaged in this "dance of death", that is, So your can die in God before you die to the flesh, and then be "Born in God" to live as "One with" God for eternity.
Bawa. And the "Gift of God" Now for your age and for your life, to Now do this
in your lifetime, is 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", if you like.
Bawa. For Again, the Choice is yours, not God's Choice, and certainly not
Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen's (Ral.) Choice, for in truth "We" have already made "Our" Choice, and "We" Chose "You as "One with" Us", and Now you too must Choose, you must Choose Either "Us", as "One with" Us, Or "you" as "separate from" Us, that is, you must Choose Either God, Or "the satan".
Bawa. Because in truth this is the Only True Choice in your life, that is, these Two Choices, that is, "God or you", that is, "God or satan", not the Three Choices
that My Children Now mistakenly believe in, that is, not "God, or you, or satan", that is, not "God, or heaven, or hell", that is, Only God or hell, for in truth Only "God goes to heaven", and Only "the satan goes to hell"
Bawa. And if you Choose Wisely, as this child has Now done, then the Consequences are God as your life for eternity, and if you fail to Choose Wisely, then the Consequences are "the satan" as your life for eternity, that is, if you Choose Wisely the Consequences are You allowing God to "Cure Himself of you".
Bawa. That is, the Wise Choice is You allowing your awakened wisdom which is Moses (peace be upon Him) or the Qutbiyyat of God, to take Everything within you to the "Promised Land", with you then disappearing into Moses (peace be upon Him), as Now "Who you are", that is, with You allowing your 6th level of wisdom, if you like, to pull out the 5 nails of "your desire" to live on the illusory "outside" of yourself and sin, liberating Jesus (peace be upon Him) which is your soul from His Cross, from the Cross of Jesus (peace be upon Him) which in truth is Now the current life of "separation and differences" of My Children.
Bawa. And in this way, and only in this way, allowing your awakened wisdom joined as "One with" your liberated soul to find and join as "One with" Muhammad (blessing and peace be upon Him) which in truth is your heart or the Nur, the Light of your wisdom, So your soul can use the Resplendence and Sound of the Nur to "Speak to God, establishing a Continuous Conversation with God, and in this way, and only in this way, "Realize Allah", then taking its life, its food, its wisdom, everything, directly from Allah. Amen. Ok?
Bawa. For as "We" taught My Children the following when "We" were living in the world, and which is Now available on-line for My Children to read Spiritual Discourse 06 (www.SpiritualDiscourse006.homestead.com), if you like, awaiting its formal publication, perhaps as the Next Discourse on the back of the Cover of the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship Calendar, that is, of the Calendar for 2009.
Bawa. That is, the following short little discourse, which this child has called
"The Rosette Stone" of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), or "Understanding And Joining As "One with" The Journey of Your Soul", which pulls together in a beautiful way the life and teaching of His Holiness, and Now the life and teaching of His Children, of the
Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), if you like, in such a simple yet all encompassing way, that is, the life and teaching His Holiness and of His Children,
Now in truth as One, if you like, that is, the life and teaching of Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Us, and with Him), Amen. Ok"
"The Rosette Stone" of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.),
Or "Understanding And Joining as "One with"
The Journey of Your Soul, That is,
With "The Journey of Truth" Hidden
Within "your journey of falsehood"
"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.
Original By: His Holiness, M. R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), given as a short discourse by His Holiness on April, 22, 1983, and Now on the "outside" of you, as given by His Children, by the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), if you like

37. Who Is Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.)? - why did He come into the world, and how does He accomplish what He came here to do?
Question asked by "The Life" of Fatimah (Ral.) at the Sunday Meeting on 4-13-08
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) is Either a holy man who came to America from Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) in 1971 to teach His Children about the "Oneness of God and True Man", and who lived in America, off and on, from 1971 until 1986, when on Decemberr 8th, 1986 His Holiness died, and is Now buried in a little farming community about an hours ride outside of the City of Philadelphia, USA, at a place His Children Now lovingly call "The Farm", or the Mazar or Shrine or burial place of His Holiness Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us)).
Bawa. Or Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) is the "Bank of God" within God within you, for your age and for your life, that is, Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) is How God Has Already Saved You, if you like, if you will Now Truly Accept Everything that is Now "Within God" within you as in truth "Who you are", and "Where you are", and "What is happening" in your life, and at the very same time, if you will Now Truly Reject Everything that has grown within you, in your ignorance and Now in your arrogance about your ignorance, and that Now mistakenly "defines you", that is, as the "very real but false" inside of you, but that My Children are Now mistakenly seeing and thinking about every moment of your life as the illusory "outside" of yourself, as Now "who you are", and "where you are", and "what is happening" in your life, all of which in truth is "Just Not True".
Initial Review:
Bawa. And Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) came into the world Either to "help you" to learn about God, and to develop the qualities of God and to teach you how to reach God in your own lifetime, and to provide you with an Example of One with the Qualities of God, and of One who has learned How to reach and merge with God.
Bawa. Or Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) came into the world to "destroy you", that is, "Not for you", but rather for your soul, that is, to awaken your wisdom, that is, to awaken the wisdom surrounding your soul, So the wisdom surrounding your soul can do battle with the "Enemy of your soul", if you like, that is, to do battle with the "Enemy of your soul" all of which in truth is Now "you", that is, is Now you living your current life of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of yourself, with you Now living the "falsehood of your life", rather than the "truth of your life", that is, with you Now 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. And Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) accomplishes what He came here to do by Him Either First teaching you what He could when He was alive in the world, and then when he died, by Him leaving you with a "Group of Like Minded People" which you Now call the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship, and with a collection of books and tapes where you have recorded some of the teachings of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) while He was living in the world.
Bawa. Or Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) accomplishes what He came here to do by Him First dying for His Children, So His Children could live, that is, by Him
First dying on the Cross of your elemental body So You can Now live a life of sin, that is, by Him First Giving Up His Life of Purity So you can Now live a life of impurity, a life of sin, all of which is Now your current life of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of yourself, with Faith & Trust in God, that you would do the same, that is, that you would die for Him, So He can Now Live Again, that you would give up your "current life" of impurity So He could Again live His Life of Purity, but this time within you.
Bawa. And then, by Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) appearing before His Children on the "outside" of you, that is, in the world, as a Holy Man, as the Father of your soul, and in truth as the "Foster Mother who raises you", to prove to His Children that in truth, "You do not Exist", that in truth "Only God exists", to prove to His Children that in truth, "Your Life is God Happening" within you, not "you happening" on the "outside" of you, and in this way, by Him encouraging His Children, day in and day out, moment by moment, to become "Peaceful with your own ending", by you joining in partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, that is, to
"Settle into stillness
through the realization
that in truth Everything is Perfect"
Bawa. That is, by Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) appearing before His Children on the "outside" of you to convince you, without the slightest doubt, that in truth "Who you are" is "What Bawa is doing", that in truth "Where you are" is within the "Dream of the Guru", and that in truth "What is happening" in your life is God revealing God to God, within God within you, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God, within God within you, 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.
Bawa. That is, with Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) dying to His Life of Purity, within God within you, dying to His Birth and Life of Purity, So you could Now live out your birth and life of impurity on the illusory "outside" of you, So you could Now exist on the illusory "outside" of you as your current life of selfishness, of arrogance, karma, and illusion, that is, So Understanding Could Occur, because Understanding Only Occurs Through Contrast, and Now you have become the "Shadow of the Shaikh", Now you have become His Contrast, if you like, So He can Now teach the soul about who It "Already Is", if you like, for Now the Choice is yours, not God/Bawa's, that is, the Choice to let Bawa use you as His Contrast, or not, in service of your soul, or not. Amen. Ok?.
Bawa. And this is How Bawa Accomplishes What He Is Now Doing, by Bawa dying in this way, to give you an impure birth and an impure life, with faith and trust in God that in time you would "Return the Favor", that is, in time "You would do the same", that is, in time "you would die, So Bawa could then live Again", So Bawa Now as your awakened wisdom joined as "One with" your liberated soul, could again live, but this time within you, and this time with an Understanding of "Your Oneness", So you will never loose it again.
Bawa. That is, So God can move forward, if you like, within God within you, what "Bawa is Now Doing", within God within you, which is Completing the First Part of God's Story, which is the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man", that is, Completing the First Part of God's Story, which is the Story of True Man within God".
Bawa. That is, Bawa Died For You, So You Would Die For Him, that is, Bawa Died For You, with Faith and Trust in God, that in your own lifetime, that You, with Faith and Trust in God, Would Die For Him, that is, before you die to the flesh, that you would "Return the Favor", that is, that you would realize and accept the truth of yourself, and join with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to Germinate To That Truth,
Bawa. That is, to Germinate to the truth that "You and God and the Creation of God are One", just like an apple seed germinates to its truth, that in truth the "Apple Tree and Apple and Apple Seed are One", that is, that in your own lifetime, before you die to the flesh, that you will realize, understand, accept, and join with the truth of yourself, that in truth you are the "Seed of God" buried within the earth of God, which is His Creation, and in truth that this Creation of God contains Everything Necessary for the "Tree of God" Now hidden within you to grow, and bear fruit, and again reveal the "Seed of God", but this time a 1000 fold. Amen. Ok?.
Bawa. And in this way, and only in this way, like the apple seed which realizes and accepts its truth, and joins as "One with" the earth to reveal the apple tree, in your own lifetime, before you die to the flesh, you will realize and accept your truth, which is the life of Bawa within God within you, and realize and reject your falsehood, which is Now the life of you within "the satan" within you, all of which is now your current life of impurity, which is your current life of sin, both within you, as the "very real but false" inside of you, and for a little while on the "outside" of you as you living a life of "separation and differences" with your brothers and sisters on the illusory "outside" of you.
Bawa. That is, That you will willingly and freely die in God, before you die to the flesh, So God can Again be born within God, So God can Again Happen, but this time within God within you, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God, within God within you, 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. Amen. Ok?
Bawa. That is, with Bawa dying So you can Now live, with faith and trust in God that during your own lifetime that "you will do the same", that you, with faith and trust in God, would die So He can Again live, that is, that in your own lifetime, before you die to the flesh, that you will "die to your sins", that you will "die to your impurity", So Bawa can get off of His Cross, So Bawa can live Again, but this time within you, this time within God within you, that is, So Bawa can get off of His Cross within you and again live a life of purity, of "Oneness", but this time within you, but this time with an understanding of His Purity, of His Oneness, So it will never leave Him again, and in truth, if you do, then "You Will Be Within Him" for eternity, you will not taste death, and you will remain immortal. Amen. Ok?
Bawa. That is, Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) is How Everything Comes into the World, that is, as the Rahman of God, if you like, and comes to Completion in the world, if you like, that is, Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) is the Completion of the First Part of the Two Part Story of God, which is the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man", that is, the Completion of the First Part of God's Story which is the "Story of True Man within God", if you like.
Bawa. That is, Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) is How God Has Already Saved You,
has already saved all of My Children, all of the Children of God for this age, if you like, all you Now have to do is accept it, that is, all you Now have to do is to truly join as "One with" God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, that is, all you Now have to do is to truly join as "One with" Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then
within you, to accept what is "Within God" within you, as Now your true heritage, as Now your true birthright, as Now the true destiny of your soul. Amen. Ok?
38. Who Are The Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.)? - why did "We" come into the world, and how do "We" accomplish what "We" came here to do?
Question asked by Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) for all of My Children
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. The Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) are Either those who gathered around His Holiness Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) when He was living in the world, and both during His Life in the world, and after His Death, built a Fellowship of "Like Minded People" around the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) and Now call it the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship, and who Now hold meetings that focus on the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), that is, where people can come and gather, and eat, and share, and listen to discourses and songs by His Holiness, and who publish books, and pamphlets, and maintain a Web Site (www.bmf.org) devoted to the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), and who annually hold celebrations about the significant "Comings and Going" of His Holiness when He was living in the world, like His arrival in America, and His death, that is, His passing from the world.
Bawa. Or the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) are in truth Now the "Bank of True Man" within the "Bank of God" within God within you, for your age and for all life, if you like, that is, the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) are in truth Now How God Is Saved, if you like, that is, the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) are in truth Now How God Separates From Himself Everything that is Now "separating God from God", which in truth is Now Everything that has Come Out of God, to Save the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.).
Initial Review:
Bawa. That is, if you will Now Truly Accept Everything that is Now "Within God" within you as in truth Now "Who you are", and "Where you are", and "What is happening" in your life, and at the very same time, if you will Now Truly Reject Everything that has Now grown within you, in your ignorance and Now in your arrogance about your ignorance, as the "very real but false" inside of you, a "very real but false" inside of you that you are Now mistakenly seeing and thinking about every moment of your life as the illusory "outside" of yourself, that is, as what "defines you", that is, as "who you are", as "where you are", and as "what is happening" in your life, all of which in truth is "Just Not True".
Bawa. And the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) came into the world Either to learn about God, and to develop the qualities of God and to reach God in your own lifetime, and to meet and use the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) as an Example of One with the Qualities of God, and as One who has learned How to reach and merge with God.
Bawa. Or the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) came into the world to die, that is, to become "Peaceful about your Ending", and in this way,"Not to live for yourself", but rather "To die for your soul", that is, to join in partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you to awaken your wisdom, that is, to awaken the wisdom surrounding your soul, So the wisdom surrounding your soul can do battle with the "Enemy of your soul", if you like, that is, So the wisdom surrounding your soul can do battle with the "Enemy of your soul" all of which in truth is Now "you", that is, all of which is Now you living your current 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, with you Now living the "falsehood of your life", rather than the "truth of your life".
Bawa. And the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) accomplish what you came here to do by you Either joining with the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) when He was alive in the world, and then when he died, by you joining with the "Group of Like Minded People" which you Now call the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship, and by you publishing and using, and encouraging other to use, the collection of books and tapes produced by the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) about the life and teachings of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), while He was living in the world.
Bawa. Or the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) accomplish what you came here to do, when you "Stop Fighting With Your Guru For Your Soul", and you "give up the ghost", So to speak, that is, when you let yourself End, that is, when you let Bawa live Again, but this time within you, that is, when you Stop all of your "working for wages to get into heaven", and instead when you Start to "join in partnership with God", First on the "outside" of you and then within you, when you Start to let God awakened your wisdom and liberate your soul from His Cross, which in truth is Jesus (peace be upon Him).
Bawa. That is, to let God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, liberate Jesus (peace be upon Him) from His Cross of your elemental body, by pulling out the 5 nails of "your desire" to live on the illusory "outside" of yourself and sin, that is, So your soul can again live a life of Purity, but this time with an Understanding of His Purity, this time with a form, for currently your soul is just a Secret within you, without a form or sound, a Secret that roams around like breath, or smoke or vapor, giving life to the elemental spirits within you.
Bawa. But if you truly join as "One with" the "Gift of God" Now for your age and for your life, as Now the "Presence and Word" of God for your age and for your life, then God will do Everything Else to make your life truly successful in your lifetime, that is, as Now the "World of God made flesh" for your age and for your life, All of which is Now Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), in whom "We are well pleased".
Bawa. Then "We" will harvest the truth from your ocean of illusory and make it into a form, which is the Qalb or the innermost heart of God within you, which is the 4 letter form of Alif, mim, hay, and dahl, or Ahamd within you, allowing your soul to rest for a while, before "We" take your soul to the Nur, with the Nur then giving the soul the Resplendence and Sound of the Nur, allowing the soul to Start to Speak to Allah, allowing the soul to then "Realize Allah", with the soul then taking its life, wisdom, food - everything, directly from Allah, making your life eternal. Amen. Ok?
Bawa. That is, the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) are How Everything Returns to God from the World, that is, is the Rahim of God, if you like, is How Everything comes to Completion Again in God, if you like, that is, the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) are the Completion of the Second Part of the Two Part Story of God, which is the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man", that is, the Completion of the Second Part of God's Story which is the "Story of God within True Man", if you like.
Bawa. That is, the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) are How God is Saved, that is, Is How Everything That is Now Separating God from God, is Separated From God, all of which is How Everything that has Now Come Out of God, in order to Save Man, Now returns to God, to Save God, So in the End, there is "No Child Left Behind", So in the End, there is Nothing Still Separating God from God
Bawa. That is, by True Man allowing God to Answer His Own Question, the Question that God asked of God in Anathi, for the benefit of all of His Creation, in the time before the beginningless beginning, the Question, "Who a I?, by True Man proving to all of the Creation of God, without the slightest doubt that in truth they are "Of God", that in truth they came "Out of God", in order to answer the First Part of God's Question, that is, "Who is True Man withiin God?", that is, in order to "Save Man", and Now they must "Return to God" in order to answer the Second Part of God's Question, that is, "Who is God within True Man", that is, in order to "Save God".
Bawa. And in truth this is "Who they are", and this is "Where they are", and in truth this is "What is happening" in their life, and that Now it is time for each of them to "Return to God", to again become "One with" God, but this time with an Understanding of "Your Oneness", So it will never leave you again, all of which is like the rain falling back into the ocean, having completed its duty as rain, again becoming the ocean, no longer existing as the rain, no longer existing as "separate from" God. Amen. Ok?
Bawa. For in truth, as "We" taught My Children the following, when "We" were living in the world,
"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."

That is, of Bawa
"Correcting the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.),
That is, of Bawa
"Curing Himself of you", of Bawa Curing Himself
Of "you" living as if "you" are "separate from" 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,
"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."
[Quote from the life and teaching of
His Holiness, M. R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen
(may God be pleased with Him, and with Us). Amen].

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?"
