Muhammad786:

Al-salaam 'alaykum my dear, sweet brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen. I hope that you and your family are well. I wanted to send you my salaams and let you know that I am still alive and well. However I just do not have time right now for wisdom sharing. The end of the term at school is coming up and I have one big assignment to finish before tomorrow night.

Muhammad786:

Insha 'Allah we will have some more time to share after tomorrow - if I can get the work done - by doing it from within the heart of my Shaikh, of course.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim. In the name of God, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate. Wa 'alaykum al-salam, my dearest loving brother, Muhammad Muhaiyaddeen. My love you (anbu) - Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler).

Muhammad786:

My love you my dear brother, precious jeweled light of my eyes. May Allah bless you in all that you do. May He grant your intention to become one with His intention so that the purpose of your life on this earth may be fulfilled. Ameen.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. Amen.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. We said the word "Bawa", establishing the "Presence of God" within us, and then disappeared within Bawa within us, and God within Him, to overhear Their conversation about your last transmission, my dearest loving brother, which was,

          "May He grant your intention to become one with His intention so that the
          purpose of your life on this earth may be fulfilled."

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. And the clarity that came into the heart of this child was the following quotation from our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), and from God within Him, as follows,

          "Every breath must remind us of God, every look must be spent searching for
          God, or looking at God, every word must be the speech of God, every taste must
          be in search of His taste and remind us of Him, every thought must be of God,
          and every intention and action must be His."

          "We must always think and act in this way. Just as God looks at each heart,
          and understands, and then comforts its sorrow, so must we try to alleviate the
          sorrow and the suffering in the hearts of other. Just as God treats all lives a like,
          so must we."

          "We must think of His attributes and put them into practice. We must take on
          the duties and the qualities of God. (We must take on God). Amen.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. In this way, my dearest loving brother, this child does not "intend to become one with God's intention".

Rather, we let "every intention and action be His", by stopping all intention and action on the "outside" of me, by saying the word "Bawa", establishing the "Presence of God" within us, so what God is intending becomes the only intention present within this life, so God's actions become the only action present within this life.

And in this way, "the purpose of our life is naturally fulfilled" by God within us, when we do as Bawa teaches us in the "Invocation To The Guru", on page 11 in the beautiful wisdom book, "The Pearl of Wisdom", when we,

          "Let grace spring forth,
          Let the darkness vanish,
          Let the love of Guru grow,
          Let qualities be purified."

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. Then God is there, within us, as "One with" True Man within Him within us, and True Man is there, within us, as "One with" God within Him, within us, and we will be within Them, as the witness of this true "happening" within us. Amen.  

Does my dear brother see the difference? 

The difference between,

          "Us intending to be one with God's intention, so the purpose of our life on this
          earth may be fulfilled".

Which though it sounds nice is still living a life focused on "us" on the "outside" of us, focused on the purpose of our life as experienced "outside" of us, and how this purpose can be fulfilled, still focused on what "we", as "separate from" God within us, have to do "outside" of us to be successful in our life.

Rather than,

          "Letting God finish what He has started within us, which is to reveal God to God
          within us, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us".

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. Rather than giving up our life as currently lived, because we have realized, understood, accepted, and joined with the truth of us, that has naturally emerged from within us, because we are now ready to hear and accept it, and because we have rejected the falsehood of us, we have rejected our life as "separate from" God, as "separate from" each other, and as "separate from" the Creation of God within us, we have rejected our life "outside" of us.

Because we have shifted our focus, shifted our focus off of "us" as "separate from" God living "outside" of us, living with our brother and sisters "outside" of us, and shifted our focus onto this path of God within us, taking on this direction in our life, which is within us rather than "outside" of us, in everything that we say or do, always saying the word "Bawa" before we say or do anything, in this way, causing our mind and desire, our life of "separation and differences" on the  "outside" of us to sit down within us, establishing the "Presence of God" within us, before we say or do anything.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. Because we have firmly decided to live this way, for the rest of our life, to live within us with God within us, and all of the "Friends of God" within us, with God, the truth of God, the wisdom of God, and the completeness of God within us, rather than trying to continue living "outside" of us, with all the friends of our mind and desire on the "outside" of us, which are really within us, hidden from us, which are the lives of darkness within us, rather than trying to improve our current life as currently lived on the "outside" of us, as a way to "work for wages to get into heaven".

Because we have firmly decided to live this way, with God within us, with Bawa within us, and God within Him, always trying to be "One with" Them within us, and to join with Them within us, in each thing that God places before us, in our life, and in this way, to give up our life as "separate from" God, as currently lived and experience on the "outside" of us, in this way, letting our life on the "outside" of us come to a peaceful end on both the "outside" of us, and within us, in the service of the higher purpose of our life, which is within us, not "outside" of us, which is God's purpose for His life within us, not our purpose for our life "outside" of us.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. In this way, relying on God within us to get to God within us for us, supporting Him with everything within us, supporting Him with all of "His Stuff" within us, which are His 124,000 Prophets, heavenly beings, and lights of God, in this way, making our life "outside" of us into His life within us.

In this way, making "us" living "outside" of us into His problem within us, a problem which He can easily solve within us, which in truth is solved by revealing Him within Him within us, is solved by letting "Him happen" within us, by letting "Him happen" again, but this time within us, by letting Him within us transform the Creation of God within us into the form or house of Qutb Muhaiyaddeen Abdul-Qadir al-Jilani (may (may God be pleased with Him) within us, which are the 99 wilayats or powers of God within us.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. And then into the form or sifat of the 8th heaven of Muhammad (blessing and peace be upon Him) within us, which is the beauty of the heart of God within us or Ahamad Muhammad reflected in the Muham or face of God within us, which is Muhammad (blessings and peace be upon Him) within us, which is the Rasul or Wisdom of God within us, and with the soul of Muhammad (Sal.), which is the light of wisdom within us, being the Nur Muhammad within us.

And in the process ending our life "outside" of us, and beginning His life within us, as a "baby suckles milk", with us becoming the witness of His work both within and "outside" of us.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. And this approach, this approach of using God within us to get to God within us, will work both within and "outside" of us, my dearest loving brother, Muhammad Muhaiyaddeen, as nothing else will work, because God does not see us as "separate from" Him, but as "One with" Him, God sees us as "Him happening" within Him within us, as we must see "God happening" within us, as "Us happening" within Him within us. 

For only in our ignorance, in our karma, arrogance, and illusion, in our living "outside" of us, as a life of "separation and differences", with our brothers and sisters, living as "separate from" God, as "separate from" each other, and as "separate from" the Creation of God within us, do we see and experience our life and what is happening to us as "our life", and as "out experiences", as our personal life, with our personal experiences, and our personal stuff, all occurring on the "outside" of us, and as "separate from" God, and as "separate from" all that "God is One with" within us.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. In this way, my dearest loving brother, Muhammad Muhaiyaddeen, we must always remember that we are not the one dreaming the dream that is happening within us, rather "we are the dream" that God is having within us, a dream which God must awaken from within us, not us, if our life is to become successful, before we die, a dream that God can only awaken from, if we let Him, if we willing let "us" as His dream end.

Because if we die in the dream, that is, if we die in the dream because our time is up, because the Angel of Death (peace be upon Him) comes for us, because our allotted amount of food and drink is over, if we die in God's dream within us in this way, not willingly and freely before our time is up, but after our time is up, being dragged to the grave by the Angel of Death (peace be upon Him), then we have failed in our life and must suffer the consequences of a failed life, which is "separation from" God for eternity..

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. Then the dream God is having within us will most certainly end, but not in a good way, not with God awaking to Himself within us, while we are still alive in the world "outside" of us, allowing God to finish what He has started within us, which requires us still being alive in the world "outside" of us, allowing God to finish His work within us, which is to reveal God to God within us, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. And if we awaken from God's dream within us, after we die, when it is too late for God to finish what He has started within us, then we will see for the first time what we did to bring the dream of God within us alive "outside" of us, we will see for the first time the lives of darkness within us, which becomes "the suffering of the grave" within us, we will see what we brought to life within us, in our ignorance, and what we kept alive within us, through our life of sin in the world, in the world that we see in our ignorance as existing on the "outside" of us.

We will truly see what "we have done with our life", with the gift of God for our life, which is to have completely missed the point of our life, which is God, and what God is doing within us, which is who we are, which is God revealing God to God within us, for the benefit of all of the Creations of God within us. Amen.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. We will see what we nourished through our life of arrogance, karma, and illusion on the "outside" of us, what we did wrong in our life, like placing our faith and trust in the world "outside" of us, like "working for wages to get into heaven" on the "outside" of us, and we will see what we could have done in our life that could have saved us from our current fate, like placing our faith and trust in God, and in God alone, like using God within us to get to God within us, like joining in partnership with God within us to "die before death", that is, to die both "outside" and within  us, before we really die "outside" of us.

In this way, we will see how we kept the dream of God going within us, so we could continue to life a life of sin on the "outside" of us, in this way, not letting God within us awaken from His dream within us, not letting the dream of "us" as "separate from" God end within us.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. In this way, after we die, no longer living within God's dream within us, but now seeing for the first time the reality within us behind God's dream within us, seeing for the first time all of the lives of incompleteness, all the lives of darkness within us that were being nourished by God's dream within us, by God creating, nourishing, and sustaining "us" as himself but as "separate from" Himself on the "outside" of us, all occurring within His dream within us.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. In this way, we chose to let God's dream continue within Him within us, rather than letting God awaken from His dream "outside" of us to His reality within us, we chose to let the dream of "us" on the "outside" of us to continue until we die, because we did not want to freely die, to voluntarily die, before our time is up, to die within our prime within the dream "outside" of us.

Having realized, understood, accepted, and joined with the truth of us, the truth that we are of God, of the "Oneness" of God within us, we are of the nature and work of God within us, and not of "us" on the "outside" of us, not of "separation and differences" on the "outside" of us, not of the nature and work of "us" as 'separate from" God on the "outside" of us, not as the dream of God within us that is seen and experience as "outside" of us, but rather as the reality of God within us, rather as God revealing God to God, for the benefit of all of His Creation within us. Amen.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. In this way, if we accept the truth of us, and freely bring the dream of God within us to an end, in this way, bringing "us" as "separate from" God on the "outside" of us to an end, before we die, then we are of the truth of God within us, we are of what God is doing within us, which is revealing Himself to Himself within us, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us, we are of the truth of us that naturally emerges from within us, when we are ready to hear and accept it.

And if we reject the truth of us, if we refuse to accept it, refusing to bring the dream of God within us to an end, in this way, allowing "us" as "separate from" God on the "outside" of us to continue, until we die, until our time is up, then we are not of the truth of God within us, we are not of what God is doing within us, which is revealing God to God within us, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us, because we do not hear it as the truth of us, because we do not want our life and world of "separation and differences", our life and world of race and religions, to end, and in this way, we are not of the truth of us that naturally emerges from within us.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. And such is our judgment. In this way, if we accept the truth of God within us, and of us within God within us, that naturally emerges from within us, when we are ready to hear and either accept or reject it, if we let the dream of God within us end within us, if we join with God within us to end the dream within us, before we die, if we do all of this within us, if we let our wisdom reason over our fate within us.

Then all of the lives of incompleteness within us, of darkness within us, of ignorance within us will be transformed into lives of completeness within us, into the Qualities of God within us, into the form of the 6th life within us, the life of wisdom within us, the palace of the soul within us, the life of Qutb Muhaiyaddeen Abdul-Qadir al-Jilani
(may God be pleased with Him) within us, which in maturity becomes the 8th heaven of Muhammad (blessing and peace be upon Him) within us, which is firdaus, the kingdom of God within us. Then this is our judgment.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. And if we reject the truth of God within us, and of us within God within us, that naturally emerges from within us, when we are ready to hear and either accept or reject it, then our current life continues until we die, and we, that is, all of the lives of incompleteness, the lives of darkness, the lives of ignorance within us, are harvested by the Angel of Death (peace be upon Him) within us, when we die.  And that is our judgment.

And this is our current life "outside" of us, my dearest loving brother, Muhammad Muhaiyaddeen, which is the dream that God is having within us, the dream of arrogance, karma, and illusion, a dream of Him living as "us" on the "outside" of us, as "separate from" God within us, as "separate from" each other "outside" of us, and as "separate from" the Creation of God both within and "outside" of us.  Which if we don't join with God within us, with Bawa within us, and with God within Him, to change within  us, then becomes our judgment for eternity, with us moving into the house we have built, with us harvesting the crop we have sown.

For as our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him),

          "The Justice of Gos is that whatever we intend is what we will receive."

So if we intend nothing, and have faith and trust in God within us, and only in God within us, and join in partnership with God within us, saying the word "Bawa" within us before we say or do anything, establishing the "Presence of God" within us, disappearing within Bawa within us, and within God within Him, then what God within us is already intending becomes what we will get, which is God within us, and what God is doing within us, which is revealing God to God within us, which is "God happening" within us,for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us. Amen.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. Such is our current life, a dream which He will naturally wake up from within us, if we will only let Him wake up, if we will only let Him wake up within us, if we will only place our faith and trust in God and God alone within us, and stop placing our faith and trust in "us" and in the world "outside" of us, and in this way, if we will "let grace spring forth" within us, if we will join in partnership with Bawa within us, and God within Him, to let Them end the dream within us, to "let darkness vanish" within us, to let Them build, enter, and live within firdaus within us, the 8th heaven of Muhammad (blessing and peace be upon Him) within us, that is, to "Let the Love of Guru Grow" within us.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. In this way, transforming the Creation of God within us, the lives of incompleteness within us, into lives of completeness within us, that is, "Let Qualities be purified" within us, and all of this will naturally happen within us, once we realize, understand, accept, and join with the truth of us, that naturally emerges from within us, when we are ready to hear and either accept or reject it.

And my dearest loving brother, Muhammad Muhaiyaddeen, we are both ready to hear and either accept or reject the truth of God within us, and the truth of us within God within us, so for us the "when" is "now".  May we both realize this, and may we both do this divine work within us, and accept the truth of God within  us, and of us within God within us, so God can end His dream within us, and we can become "One with" God within us, and "One with" all that God is "One with" within us, before our time is up, before it is too late, before we die.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. May we both realize this without the slightest doubt, that the truth of God within us, and of us within God, is that we are the "Seed of God" buried within the "earth of God" within us, which is the Creation of God within us, and the Creation of God within us contains everything necessary for the "Tree of God" within us to grow within us, and bring to maturity all of the "Fruit of God" for this age. Amen.

Such is the dream of God within us, which is our current life of "separation and differences" on the "outside" of us, which will naturally end within us, if we will let "us" as His dream end "outside" of us, if we will let "us", and our entire life "outside" of us end, if we let "us" be but His dream of "separation and differences" within Him within us, which is currently all of what defines "us" on the "outside" of us, if we will only let it end, if we will willingly, and freely, and even enthusiastically, let the dream of us, as "separate from" God on the "outside" of us come to an end within us, so what God was doing before His dream can be finished within us, before we die.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. So God can continue on with what He was doing within us, before He stopped doing it, before He started to dream, and time started within His dream within us, and "we" started to live within Him as His dream of "separation and differences" on the "outside" of us, we started to live, as Bawa teaches us, as,

          "The evil actions of kalam (time) that lead us to kalan (to the Angel of Death).

When God started to dream about himself within us, to dream about himself as "us" as "separate from" Himself within us, about "us" as "separate from" what He is doing within us, when God started to dream about himself as "us" living "outside" of us, as "separate from" God within us, as "separate from" each other on the "outside" of us, and as "separate from" the Creation of God both within us and "outside" of us.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. This is what is really going on both within us and "outside" of us, my dearest loving brother, Muhammad Muhaiyaddeen.

May we both realize this without the slightest doubt, and before we die let God within us wake up from His dream within us, and finish what He has already started within each of us, before it is too late, before we die, so God can complete His duty to all of the Creations of God within Him within us, which is to reveal God to God within us, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us. Ok?

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. May all the peace, the beneficence, and the blessing of God be upon us all. May God help us all. Amen.

Please give my love and salams to your wife, to your children, to your students, especially to the One who taught us to be humble. Please tell them that Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler) loves them very, very much, and that they are always in my prayers.

MuhaiyaddeenLB:

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. And as always, please try to join with Bawa within us, and with God within Him, to share this sharing with them.

Please try to do this "Heart's Work" my dearest loving brother. Then God will truly awaken from His dream within us, and we will begin to see and experience the reality of God within us, and of us within God, rather than God's dream of "separation and differences" within us.

May we both do this divine work before it is too late, before we are harvested by the Angel of Death (peace be upon Him) within  us, rather than by God within us. Amen.

My love you (anbu) - Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler).
