Spiritual Discourse 09
"To First Understand Yourself,
And Then To Start To Talk To God and Learn His Story,
Is To Have Learned The Outside Book or Example Known as The Qur'an,
Is To Have Finished Your Outside Learning.
That is the Power Within the Essence of Everything,
That is the Ummul Qur'an Within the Tiru Qur'an
Within the Form of the Qur'an or Creation,
That is the Dhat Within The Sirr Within The Sifat,
That is the Hereafter or Akhirah or the Kingdom of God,
Within The World of Souls or Awwal or Heaven or the Palace of the Soul,
Within This World or Dunya or the World of hell,
That is, God Within The Truth Within The Falsehood.  Amen.

1.  "Let Us Speak About The Connection" - between God, the Truth, and Falsehood
2.  The Nature of Man And of The Creation of God - Man is made with Three Sections, the Dhat, the Sirr, and the Sifat, that is, the Inside, the Understanding of the outside, and the outside, and All of Creation is made with Two Sections, the Dhat, and the Sifat, the Inside and the Outside, and in this way, Man is the bridge or as Jesus (peace be upon Him) teaches us, Man is the Door or the Way for all of the Creation of God, Man is How the Creation of God returns to God, by lining up behind Man, behind Adam (peace be upon Him) when praying to God
3.  The Nature of the Holy Qur'an - "Everything is within the Qur'an", that is, the Qur'an is the three Sections of Man, the Dhat, the Sirr, and the Sifat, that is, the Qur'an is the "Power within the Essence of Everything", that is, the Qur'an is the Mubarakat or the Rahmat of Allah, the Wealth of the Three World, the Qur'an is the Three Worlds inside of Man, just waiting to be revealed, if you like.
4.  The Nature of the Tiru Qur'an - is the Understanding of what is seen on the "outside", is the Triple Flame, is the 6th level of wisdom, is the wisdom that explains, is the wisdom that explains what is seen and experience on the "outside", all of which is the Qutb or the Action of God within you, all of which is what moves forward the Story of God, the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man" which God started to tell within you a very, very long time ago, but which God Stopped telling when you came into "your presence" within you, as "separate from" God within you, when you came into "your presence" of "separate from" around the age of 3 years old, first on the "outside" of you and then within you, that is, within your "room" or heart or mind of "separate from", that is, as "separate from" God within you, as "separate from" your brothers and sisters, and as "separate from" the Creation of God, within God within you, all of which is "Just Not True"

Partial Discourse by His Holiness - with a Full "Initial Topic Review" for each "Outline Topic" that was extracted so far by Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us) from the discourse by His Holiness, M. R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us).  Amen

                                                                      - go to "Outline of Discourse"
1.  "Let Us Speak About The Connection" - between God, the Truth, and Falsehood

His Holiness:

Now we will speak about the connection between God, truth, and yourself.

David Freudberg:

Bawangal, I wish to ask about the Qur'an.  The Inner Qur'an.  What is its meaning to man's life?

                                                                      - go to "Outline of Discourse"
2.  The Nature of Man And of The Creation of God - Man is made with Three Sections, the Dhat, the Sirr, and the Sifat, that is, the Inside, the Understanding of the outside, and the outside, and All of Creation is made with Two Sections, the Dhat, and the Sifat, the Inside and the Outside, and in this way, Man is the bridge or as Jesus (peace be upon Him) teaches us, Man is the Door or the Way for all of the Creation of God, Man is How the Creation of God returns to God, by lining up behind Man, behind Adam (peace be upon Him) when praying to God, in order to learn the wisdom of Adam (peace be upon Him), in order to become the Sirr, the Understanding of Creation, and in this way, in order to become the Dhat, the Understanding of God, that is, in order to return to God as His Understanding, allowing God to tell and bring to Completion His Story, the "Story of the Oneness of God and True Man", so in the End, there is "No Child Left Behind", so in the End, there is Nothing still "Separating God from God".  Amen.

His Holiness:

The form of man has been made with the 28 letters.  In all God's Creation, there are two sections of dhat and sifat, or sharr and khair.  What is seen as an example outside is sifat.  That which is understood inside, that is dhat.

There is sharr and khair.  Sharr is that which is seen outside, khair is that which is understood within.  Dhat is on the inside, sifat is on the outside, khair is on the inside and sharr is on the outside.

                                                                      - go to "Outline of Discourse"
3.  The Nature of the Holy Qur'an - "Everything is within the Qur'an", that is, the Qur'an is the three Sections of Man, the Dhat, the Sirr, and the Sifat, that is, the Qur'an is the "Power within the Essence of Everything", that is, the Qur'an is the
Mubarakat
or the Rahmat of Allah, the Wealth of the Three World, the Qur'an is the Three Worlds inside of Man, just waiting to be revealed, if you like.  That is, First the Qur'an is the Hereafter or Akhirah or the Kingdom of God or the 8th Heaven or Firdaus, which is the Wealth of the "Qualities of God", Second, the Qur'an is the World of Souls or Awwul or Heaven or the Palace of the Soul, which is the Wealth of "heaven and hell", and Third, the Qur'an is this World or Dunya or the World of hell, which is the Wealth of "good and evil", that is, the Qur'an is the Dhat or Ummul Qur'an, it is the
Sirr
or Tiru Qur'an, and it is the Creation or the Sifat Qur'an.  And "As It Came Now So Must It Return", but Now in the Other Order, that is, First, as the Sifat Qur'an, then as the Tiru Qur'an, and then as the Ummul Qur'an.  That is, First the Qur'an is Understanding Yourself by joining with God as Your Guru, first on the "outside" of you as your True Sifat, which Now is Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us) on the "outside" of you, to separate your inner Sifat, or your "room" or heart or mind, into heaven and hell, and then by joining with God as your True Sirr, which Now is Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us) on the "inside" of you, to separate your Sirr into "good and evil", that is, to liberate your soul or Jesus (peace be upon Him) from His Cross, from your elemental body, by pulling out the 5 nails of "your desire" to live on the illusory "outside" of you and sin, that is, to live on the illusory "outside" of youself as "separate from", that is, allowing your awakened wisdom to liberate your soul as a Secret, as a Secret which is currently animating the 5 ruhanies or elemental spirits within you, allowing them to roam the earth world within you, giving you the illusion of roaming the illusory "outside" of you as "a person", that is, with you soul now living a Secret Life within you without a form and without sound.  And in this way, if you like, if you join with your awakened wisdom against "you", allowing your soul to rest by lodging your soul in the Qalb or "Crystal Heart" or body of Truth within you, that is Naturally created within you, if you like, from within the "Ocean of Illusion" within you by the Qutb, if you like, that is, if you will only join in partnership with your awakened wisdom against the "Enemy of your soul", which in truth is "you".  That is, for the Qutb and the Nur to emerge out of the Shadow within you, out of the 25 letters within you, revealing the 3 letters of God within you, that is, out of the 28 letters that make up the Mystical Form of Man within you, and as One join with Allah, to reveal the Alif, and from within the Alif, to reveal the Lam and the Mim, which is the Tiru Qur'an within you, and then as the Three joined as One, as "Ya Allah, Ya Rasul, Ya Muhaiyaddeen", within "Alif, Lam, and Mim" to stand as the "Presence of God" before the Creation of God within you, as "Their Judgment and Salvation", as "Their Door or Way" back into God, if they like.  And within this within you, the Qur'an is to Understand God within You by letting Your Soul join with Your Dhat or the Nur Muhammad to Realize Allah, that is, to become the Qualities of God, allowing the One who tastes those Qualities, which is True Man or Allah Muhammad to go on "Resonating the Praise" of Allah.  Such is the True Gift of Man for all of the Creation of God within you, not for you, that is, when you learn how to join with God, first on the "outside" of you and then within you, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within you, that is, to allow them to stand in "God's Presence" within you, not in your presence on the "outside" of you, that is, to allow them to Pray to God behind Adam (peace be upon Him), not behind you, So God can both Pass Judgment upon them, and offer them Salvation, if they like, all happening before you die to the flesh, if you like.  For the Choice is yours, not God's, that is, the Choice to become Jesus (peace be upon Him), first on the "outside" and the within you, that is, to become the Door, the Way for 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, and as you can also learn to do, if you like, that is, as Now your Judgment and your Salvation, if you like.  Amen. Ok?

His Holiness:

All that is seen on the outside is the Qur'an.  All the explanations on the outside are the Qur'an, the explanation of creation, all that is sifat, and (all) that is the (outside or the Sifat) Qur'an.  Whatever you see on the outside is the Qur'an.

                                                                      - go to "Outline of Discourse"
4.  The Nature of the Tiru Qur'an - is the Understanding of what is seen on the "outside", is the Triple Flame, is the 6th level of wisdom, is the wisdom that explains, is the wisdom that explains what is seen and experience on the "outside", all of which is the Qutb or the Action of God within you, all of which is what moves forward the Story of God, the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man" which God started to tell within you a very, very long time ago, but which God Stopped telling when you came into "your presence" within you, as "separate from" God within you, when you came into "your presence" of "separate from" around the age of 3 years old,
first
on the "outside" of you and then within you, that is, within your "room" or heart or mind of "separate from", that is, as "separate from" God within you, as "separate from" your brothers and sisters, and as "separate from" the Creation of God, within God within you, all of which is "Just Not True".  For in truth God is closer to you than you own breath, your own thoughts, and even your own life, He was there within you before any of this dream life started within you, that is, before the Qutb of God within you, fell asleep and dreamed you, dreamed you as His Shadow, dreamed you as the Contrast of the Light, dreamed you as the Contrast of the Aathi, so Understanding could occur, So the Qutb as the 6th level of wisdom could finish answering the Question, at that level of wisdom or consciousness, the Question that God asked of God in Anathi, in the time of Darkness or Lack of Understanding, before the Beginningless Beginning, the Question, "Who Am I?", causing God to Start to Continue telling His Story, but this time within you, a Story told in "God's Presence" and with "God's Intention", with the Intention that in the End, "No Child Is Left Behind", with the Intention that in the End, "There is Nothing" still "Separating God from God".  And this is "Who you are", and "Where you are", and "What is happening" in your life, if you like, not anything that you are currently experiencing on the illusory "outside" of you, if you like, all of which in truth is just a reflection of the "very real but false" lives of darkness and evil that you have allowed to grow within you, in your ignorance and Now in your arrogance about your ignorance, and which Now Rule over you as the 9 Openings of your elemental body, with "God's Permission".  For again, the Choice is yours, not God's, that is, the Choice to let God Again Start to tell and bring to Completion His Story, but this time within you, the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man", but this time with an Understanding of "Your Story", this time with an Understanding of "Your Oneness", so it will never leave you again.  And this is the Tiru Qur'an, this is the Sirr, this is what distinguishes Man from the Creation of God, which is the bridge between the Sifat Qur'an and the Ummul Qur'an, the bridge between the Dhat and the Sifat, the bridge between God and His Creation, the bridge that allows God to pull all of His Creation back into Himself from which "Everything" has come, if they like, and before that, if you like.  So in truth your role is not to "Cross This Bridge", for your benefit, as
My Children
still Mistakenly believe, but rather to "Become This Bridge", 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, and which you can also learn to do, if you like, that is, if you will only truly join in partnership with God, first on the "outside" of you and then within you, to give up all of your selfish thoughts of "Crossing this Bridge", for the selfless truth and really of "Becoming It".  And the Choice to do this, or not, the Choice to Start to join in partnership with God to do this with your life, or not, is most certainly your Choice, not God's Choice.  So please Choose Wisely My Dearest Loving Children.  Amen. Ok?
