The Journey

“Come, come, whoever you are …”

“Our friend who has come here today

Has come to ask about the power of the spirit

Because he has been awakened to the existence of the spiritual world.

Whoever passes near to a warm sea finds in themselves a desire to enter it.

They feel it calling them.

Our friend has come close to the sea and feels refreshed and tranquil.

But now, even as the spiritual relief and comfort are coming to his attention,

He realises all the more that there is an emptiness inside of him that is crying to be filled.

Now that he has begun to taste he realises jut how great a capacity he has to  taking in more and more of the blessed knowledge,

And just how great the need.

Beginings…

We are seeking and asking for very precious treasures

…Therefore what is the way?  

… women may reach to holy stations in forty days;  in a second they may  move from earth to heavens and  from east to west.   They may reach to universes in their heart. …   That chance is not given to men. They must do hard work,

perhaps for years 

Follow His Will  like a shadow follows a moving body … you must try to  free yourself from your ego’s hold so that you may be in the hands of  your  Lord ..        when one has finally surrendered to the hand of his Lord, the Lord says:

"Oh My servant, you are for Me; and I am for you."

And now a story - Ask, glorify and bring your best

For every level of faith you must accept a test to rise in faith level; and the levels of faith are never- ending.

The Sheikh was asked - "when tragedy comes into our lives how can we keep our faith in God's Mercy; 

 how can we feel that He cares about what is happening to each and every one of us?"

Sheikh Nazim mourns his wife

In our day beliefs are the subject of ridicule for  people,..         … the powers of evil, are trying to make people not believe.

 The enemy of faith is doubt.   Where doubt comes, belief must be harmed, must be destroyed.  Therefore we must try to defeat doubt within ourselves ....

It is foolish to ask for other than your destiny.

Leave it that He decides.   You may only ask for forgiveness - nothing else......
