Bawa. Here is Page 2 of 3 of a beautiful sharing, of "Spiritual Letter 134", which is a Spiritual Letter sharing the recent experiences of this child, that is, of Bawa "Correcting the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), that is, of Bawa "Curing Himself of you", that is, of "you" 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. For Example, here are 5 New Questions asked by the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) at the Last Sunday Meeting, on 03-02-08, at the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship, that is, by Malik, Jean (Granny) , Shams, Ahmad Muhaiyaddeen, and John (may God be pleased with all of My Children), 5 New Questions which when added to the other 17 Questions & Answers Listed on Page 1 Now brings the Total Number of Questions in this First Version of this Document to 22 Questions & Answers.
Bawa. That is, with these 5 New Questions Now becoming Question 18, 19, 20, 21, and 22 of the "Never Ending Document" which "We" have called,
"Correcting the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.): Document Number 1"

Question asked by John (Ral.) at last Sunday Meeting, on 03-02-08
Bawa. That is, with "This Version" of these 5 New Questions, and the Following 5 Answers to these Questions, coming into the heart of this child, that is, into the heart of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), when "We" handed to Bawa what Malik, Jean (Granny), Shams, Ahmad Muhaiyaddeen, and John said at the meeting, that is, handing what each of My Children said to Bawa within "Us", thanking Him, and Praising God, saying "Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar."
Bawa. And then, after briefly reflecting upon what each of My Children had to say, saying the following to God, as Bawa has taught this child to do, :
Thank You, O God. No Thank You, O God, What's Next?
Bawa. And then this is what Next came into the heart of this child, that is, these 5 New Questions along with the Correct Answer for each of them, with Bawa explaining to this child at that time, that in truth these were the Questions that His Children were trying to address, when they spoke at the Sunday Meeting.
Bawa That in truth these were the Questions that His Children truly wanted to ask of God directly, and to let God answer directly, all of which God would have Most Certainly Done, within the heart of each of My Children, as God did within the heart of this child, if His Children had only learned How,
Not To Be There, So God Can Be There.
Bawa. As this child has Now learned to do.
Bawa. And Now, a Set of Questions and Answers that My Children must Now Start to accept as the "Word of God" for your age and for your life, coming to you Now from within the heart of the "Word of God made flesh" for your age and for your life, that is, coming Now from within the heart of "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you.
Bawa. And a Set of Questions and Answers that My Children must Now Start to truly realize, understand, accept, and join with, if God is to finish what God Started within each of My Children a very, very long time ago, which is to reveal God to God, 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, that is, to truly join as "One with" these 5 New Questions and Answers, as well as with the 17 Earlier Questions and Answers, that is, to truly "Make Them Your Own", Now for your age and for your life.
Bawa. That is, for each of My Children to truly make these 22 Questions and Answers as Now the "Word of God" for your age and for your life, to truly make these Questions and Answers God "Speaking Directly To You", for your age and Now for your life, that is, to truy make them God Speaking to You through the heart of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), through who in truth is Now the "Word of God made flesh" for your age and Now for your life, if you like.
Bawa. For in truth "What More Can God Now Do", for each of His Children, but to Now give You His Son, but to Now give you your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, Now as "Your Door", Now as "Your Way", as Now in truth the Final Example, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, as Now in truth the "Final Example" for your age and for your life, the "Final Example" of who in truth "You Now Are", if you like.
Bawa. That is, if you will only truly accept it, that is, accept this truth about "Who You Are", by accepting Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, and at the very same time, by rejecting your "current life", that is, by rejecting who in truth "you now act like you are", First on the "outside" of you and then within you, all of which in truth is "Just Not True", So if you like, the "Child of Light" can come forward, and the "child of darkness" can leave, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, within God within you.
Bawa. All of which in truth is Now "God Happening", within God within you, if you like, all of which in truth is Now "Who Your Are" and "Where You Are", if you life, all which is Now within the heart of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), within God within you, if you like, and of which in truth is Now "What Is Truly Happening" in your life, which is "True Man Happening" within "God Happening" within Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), within God within you.
"The Rest is Up To You"
Bawa. That is, The Rest is "Up To You", and The Rest is whether you truly Start to accept "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) as such, or not, and whether you truly Start to accept yourself Now as such, or not, that is, to truly Start to accept yourself, First as the "child of darkness", and then as His Child, as the Child of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First as "His Shadow", as the "Shadow of the Guru", and then as "His Light", and whether you truly Start to use Him as such, for your age and for your life, or not. Amen. Ok?.
Bawa. That is, whether you truly Start to use Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), as such, or not, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, and whether you truly Start to let Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) use "you" as such, or not, that is, as Now "His Shadow", that is, as Now "The One" who He must Now Raise, as Now "The One" who He must join with God within Himself to move forward, that is, to move from "you" Now as "His Shadow" to "You" Next as "His Light".
Bawa. That is, if you will only let Him, So True Understanding can occur, the Understand that "Has No Contrast" because God has No Contrast, the Understanding that will allow God to Now Start to Answer His Own Question of Himself, in Anathi, in the time before the beginningless beginning, So in the End, there is "No Child Left Behind", So in the End, there is Nothing Still Separating God from God. Amen. Ok?
Bawa. And in this way, and Only in this way, for you to Start to apply these 5 New Questions and Answers from God to your life, as well as Start to apply the 17 Earlier Questions and Answers from God to your life, that was shared with each of My Children as "Page 1" of "Spiritual Letter 134".
Bawa. That is, for each of My Wise Children who are Still on the "Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen Mailing List", and for each of My Wise Children who Still Read what "We" Send You, from God within the Heart of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), as truly the First Step on the "Path of God" within Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within you.
Bawa. All of which in truth is Now the Straight Path, the "Way of the Lord" Now for your age and for your life, all which in truth is Now God's Story for your age and for your life, the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man", the Story of God that contains the following Four Steps, as the "Final Gift of God" Now for your age and for your life, that is, the following Four Steps Now known for your age and for your life as:
1. Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.). 2. Shaikh Muhammad Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) 3. Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) 4. Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.).
Bawa. For in truth the Choice is yours, not God's, that is, the Choice to accept what God has Now given you, that is, to Either accept the "Form of God" that God has Now given you, as "You", that is, to accept the current "Life and State and Form" of "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), as "You", First on the "outside" of you and then within you, Or to accept the "form of satan" that God has Now given you, as "you", that is, to accept your "current life", your current "life and state and form", as "you", First on the "outside" of you and then within you.
Bawa. That is, to Either accept you Now as the "Form of God", Or to continue to accept you Now as the "form of the satan", One or the Other, and within that to accept you Now as Either God's Story, as Now the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man", Or as the "story of the satan, all of which in truth is Now the current "Life and State and Form" of "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you", that God Has Now Given to Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), as an Example for each of My Children, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, an Example in truth of "Who You Are", of "Where You Are", and of "What Is Happening" in your life, if you like.
Bawa. That is, to accept Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), as Now "Who You Are", and Now as "Where You Are", and Now as "What Is Happening" in your life, and to reject your current "life and state and form", letting God "Make It So", First on the "outside" of you and then within you.
Bawa. Or to accept you Now as the "form of satan", and within that to accept you Now as "satan's story", as the story of the "separation of God and True Man", all of which in truth is Now the current "life and state and form" of each of My Children, First on the "outside" of you and then within you", that is, to accept your current "life and state and form", that God Has Now Given to each of My Children, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, an Example in truth of the Contrast, the Opposite of "Who You Are", of "Where You Are", and of "What Is Happening" in your life, if you like.
Bawa. That is, to accept the Contrast, the Opposite of in truth "Who You Are", of "Where You Are", and of "What Is Happening" in your life, as Now "who you ere", and Now as "where you are", and Now as "what is happening" in your life, that is, to accept your current "life and state and form", which in truth is the "form of satan", and within that in truth is the "story of satan", the story of the "separation of God and True Man", and to reject the current "Life and State and Form" of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), which in truth is the "Form of God", and within that in truth is the Story of God, the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man", and in this way, with you in the End, letting "the satan" have "his way" with you.
Bawa. That is, with you in the End letting the satan "harvest you" as "his crop", and "claim you" as "his property", and in the End, with you letting the satan drag you to hell "as the satan", after "the satan" is blinded by the "Light of the soul" within you, which in truth is Now Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within God within you, for in truth "only satan goes to hell".
Bawa. And Such Is Now Your Choice, My Dearest Loving Children, that is, to Either accept "You" Now as God, as Now "One with", as Now in truth Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, as Now the First Step on the Path of God within the heart of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within God within you, that is, on the Path of Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), all of which is Now your True Heritage, your True Birthright, the True Destiny of your soul, if you like, all of which in truth is the "From of God" for your age and for your life, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, if you like.
Bawa. Or to accept "you" Now as "the satan", as Now "separate from", as Now in truth "the child of darkness", as Now the Last Step on the Path of "your parents", a Path which you have Now completed, with you Now having become "your parents", that is, in your ignorance and Now in your arrogance about your ignorance, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, if you like.
Bawa. All of which in truth is Now your "current life", your "current state", and "your current form", all of which in truth is Now the temporary "kingdom of hell", the temporary kingdom of "the satan", on the illusory "outside" of you, and the permanent kingdom of hell, the permanent kingdom of "the satan" within you, that is, if you die in your "current state", that is, if you don't become My Wise Child, or at least truly join with Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), to truly Start to become My Wise Child, before you die to the flesh, So God can then do Everything Else necessary to make your life truly successful in your lifetime.
Bawa. For if you do, if you truly join as "One with" Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) to Start to do this "Hearts Work", First on the "outside" of you and then within you, then God will most certainly do Everything Else to make your life truly successful in your lifetime.
Bawa. For in truth this is "God's Promise", this is "God's Guarantee", for your age and for your life, and that is for sure, for as "We" taught My Children when "We" were living in the world,
"If you are there then God is Not there, and if God is there then you are Not there".
Bawa. So Please join with Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) My Dearest Loving Children, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to truly learn How Not To Be There, So God Can Be There, and That's It, because when you do then Most Certainly Only God Will Be There, Not "you" as "separate from", Not "you" as your current life, Not "you" in your current form, Not "you" as the "form of satan", and within that, Not "you" as "the satan", for in truth the Only One who goes to hell, is "the satan".
Bawa. And in this way, My Dearest Loving Children, the Choice is Now yours, not God's, that is, the Choice to accept Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) and what is within Him, or not, that is, the Choice to accept Him and what is within Him, as in truth Now "Who you are", as Now "Where you are", and Now as "What is truly happening" in your life, or not.
Bawa. So in the End, you are Either the "Form of God", which Starts Now as the "Form" of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, Or you are the "form of the satan", which Ends Now as your current form, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, all of which in truth is Now the "form" of all of My Children, whether you know it or not, and even whether you like it or not.
Bawa. For in truth this is what God is Now Showing you, Now Showing each of My Children, Now Showing you these Two Forms, One Form as "who you Now are", First on the "outside" of you and then within you, that is, as the Example of who you Now mistakenly "Think You Are", that is, as the Example of the "form of the satan", and the Other Form, which is Now Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, as the Example of "Who You Truly Are", if you like, as the Example of "Who You Next Are", if you like, "So You Can Make This Choice".
Bawa. For in truth there are Only Two Choices in your life, Either Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), Or "you", that is, Either the "Current Life" of "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), Or "you" as your "current life", Not Three Choices, Not "God, or you, or satan", and Not "God, or heaven, or hell", as My Children still mistakenly believe, but to your eternal peril. Amen. Ok?
Bawa. All of which in truth is within God's Tawwakul, within God's Responsibility, Not Within Your Responsibility, as My Children still mistakenly believe, because in truth all of this is Just What God is Now Showing You, that is, God is Now Just Showing your these "Two Forms", So you can Now Choose between them, that is, as where and how you will spend eternity, either as the "Form of God", or as the "form of the satan".
Bawa. God is Now Just Showing you both of these forms, that is, God is Just Showing you an Example of both of these forms, So you can Choose, So you can Choose your Role for eternity, Either as God or as "the satan", that is, with you as Either the "From of God", First on the "outside" of you and then within you, which in its First Step is Now Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), Or the "form of the satan", First on the "outside" of you and then within you, which in its Last Step is Now "you" in your "current life, in your "current state", and in your "current form", that is, is Now "you" living as "your parents", But The Choice Is Yours, Not God's, and This Is The Truth Now of your life.
Bawa. And these are Now the Two Examples that God is Now Showing My Children, as an Example of the Two Different Roles each of My Children can Now have for eternity, that is, as God, or as "the satan", One or the Other, but Not Both.
Bawa. That is, So you can Choose Between Them here, in this earth world, and then Experience Them for eternity there, in Akhirah or the hereafter.
Bawa. And in truth this is all that is really going on here, in this earth world, that is, this Choice between there Two Examples, between God or "the satan", for in truth Everything Else that you Now see is just drama, the drama of "I and you", of "mine and yours.
Bawa. That is, Everything Else you see, or think, or are Now experiencing, Other Than This Choice, is false, is just a distraction, is just "the drama" of "the satan", to keep you "off balance", So you miss the true point of being here, that is, you fail to "Make the Correct Choice" which is God, and you end up being tricked by "the satan", into becoming "the satan", because in truth No One would ever willingly become "the satan" for eternity, and that is for sure.
Bawa. And in truth this is all that is really going on here, in this temporary earth world, which is the Choice between God or "the satan" for there, that is, for eternity in the hereafter, with each of My Children Now Showing to My Children the Example of the "form of the satan", First on the "outside" of you and then within you, and Now "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) Now Showing to My Children the Other Example, that is, the Example of the "Form of God", First on the "outside" of you and then within you.
Bawa. And all of which God has Done, has brought to Completion, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, Not you, and Not Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), and all of which is within God's Responsibility, Not your Responsibility, and Not Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen's (Ral.) Responsibility.
Bawa. And Now You Must Choose, Now you must Now Choose between God or "the satan", before you die to the flesh, Now you must Choose between the Two Examples, that is, between Either the Example of "you" in your "current form", which is the "from of the satan", as the Last Step in the journey of becoming "the satan" for eternity, that is, by becoming "your parents", Or the Example of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral) in His "Current Form", which is the "Form of God", as the First Step in the journey of becoming "One with" God, that is, by becoming Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), and the Choice is yours, not God's Choice, and certainly not Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen's (Ral.) Choice. Something to think about a little, Yes?
Bawa. Next is an "Initial Review" of these 5 New Questions and Answers, from the last Sunday Meeting, on 3-02-08, that is, from Malik, Jean (Granny), Shams, Ahmad Muhaiyaddeen, and John, for your reading and hopefully for your sharing enjoyment, PLUS an "Initial Review" of the 3 Questions and Answers that "We" both asked and answered when "We" were living in the world.
Bawa. And like with the "Initial Review" of the 17 Question and Answers presented on Page 1, "We" have also presented the "Initial Review" of the following 5 New Questions and Answers in a Contrast Format, in an Either/Or Format, So My Children can Start to reflect on both "your current life", which is the "form of the satan", and if you like, on "Your Next Life", which is the "Form of God", that is, on "The Next Life" that is Now available to My Children, before you die to the flesh, if you like, the "Form of God" Now available for your age and for your life Known As Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, if you like, for the Choice is yours, not God's. Amen. Ok?
============================================================= Review of Q & A" Of The 5 New Questions and Answers In This New Document, "Correcting the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.): Document No. 1"
18. Why Was Satan Thrown Out of Paradise? Question asked by "The Life" of Malik (Ral.) at last Sunday Meeting, on 03-02-08
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. Satan was thrown out of paradise Either because he failed to praise God, or failed to pray to God, or failed to understand God, or failed to use God to accomplish his own personal agenda, or failed to move forward his life on the "Path of God.
Bawa. Or because satan failed to "Line up Behind Adam", that is, satan failed to do all of these thing behind Adam (peace be upon Him), that is, satan failed to "Line up Behind" what God gave satan, that God gave to all of God's Creation, at that time, to praise God, to pray to God, to understand God, to use God to accomplish your own personal agenda, or to move forward your life on the "Path of God.
Initial Review:
Bawa. Like what God gave My Children, as the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), when "We" were living in the world, as How You, and all of the Creation of God within you, Line Up Behind Adam (Ral.), for your age and for your life, that is, as How you, and all of the Creation of God within you, praise God, that is, behind the physical Guru, and pray to God, that is, behind the physical Guru, and understand God, that is, behind the physical Guru, and use God to accomplish your own personal agenda, that is, behind the physical Guru, and move forward your life on the "Path of God, that is, behind the physical Guru.
Bawa. And if you did not do that work, that is, become the Physical Guru by sitting behind the physical Guru in the proper way, in the appointed time, that is, before Bawa physically left the world, for whatever reason, then This Is What You Still Must Do, behind the physical Guru, in the proper way, and in the Now appointed time, to become truly successful in your lifetime. Period.
Bawa. And Most Certainly Not Start to do what satan did in his arrogance, karma, and illusion, not Start to do what "the satan" did that caused him to be thrown out of paradise, that is, not Start to think that you can do it without being behind the physical Guru, that you can do it directly, that in your current state of "separation from" God you can somehow build a relationship of "Oneness with" God, and then accomplish through this direct relationship between "you and God", that is, between the "separate from" and the "One with", all of the things that God told all of His Creation that they could not do, without "Lining Up Behind Adam".
Bawa. That is, you did not do that work, that is, become the Physical Guru by sitting behind the Physical Guru in the proper way, in the appointed time, for whatever reason, for example, like because your faith in God was weak, or because you were too young to understand what Bawa was saying, or because you were being raised by parents whose faith in God was weak or who were too young to understand what Bawa was saying, or because you were not born while Bawa was living in the world, or because you did not meet Bawa when Bawa was living in the world.
Bawa. Realizing Now that This Is What You Still Must Do, but Now You Must Do It behind The One Who Did It Properly when Bawa was living in the world, and as a result has Now truly become the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Us, and with Him) for you, and for your age, and for all of My Children..
Bawa. And in this way, Instead of this Folly of going the "Way of the satan", which all of My Children have Now Done, what you must Now Do, is again "Throw Yourself Into "The Fire of God", that is, that is, into "The Fire of God" that is Now burning in the world, which Now is "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, realizing Now, either for the first time, or this time, that in truth there "Is No Other Way", that in truth there is no other way to merge with God, to reach God, that is, to let your soul "Realize Allah", and that is for sure.
Bawa. So, either for the first time, or this time, "Let It Consume You", that is, "Let It Destroy You" and reveal God, that is, let it destroy "you" as "separate from" and reveal "You" as "One with", that is, let it destroy the "form of the satan" that is your "current life" and reveal the "Form of God" which is Your Next Life, that is the life of the Child of Light Now hidden within the "child of darkness" within you, which in truth is Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within you, and Now is the life of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) on the "outside", So you can demonstrate all of this to God, So you can demonstrate the True Disciple to God.
Bawa. That is, So you can truly become the "Child of the Guru", as you came into the world as the "child of your parents", that is, So Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral) can Now literally raise you, as your mother and father raised you when you came to them as a child, and if you, if you truly join with God to do this "Hearts Work", First on the "outside" of you and then within you, then you will become Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, as your have Now become your parents, First on the "outside" of you, as a teenager, and then within you, as Now an "adult", and then as Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, you will become the "Child of God", and God will then raise you, allowing You To Become Him, as God is Now raising this child, if you like. Amen. Ok?
Bawa. And if you truly Start to do this properly, and in the allotted time, My Dearest Loving Children, by Starting to truly accept "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), as Now such for your life and for your age, that is, as Now the Light of God for your age and for your life, as Now the Fire of God burning in the world, for your age and for all life, then God will do "Everything Else" to make your life truly successful in your lifetime, and that is for Sure. Amen. Ok?
Bawa. Please do it like this, My Dearest Loving Children, that would be Good. Good for you, and Good for "Us", and Good for all of your brothers and sisters, and in truth Good for all of the Creation of God that God placed within each of My Children, a very, very long time ago, for in truth Such is the "Exaltedness of Your Own Life", So You could come to understand them, and having Understood them, to bring them back into God, as Now "The Door", as Now "The Way", as Now the Straight Path of God for all of the Creation of God, within God within you, So in the End, there is "No Child Left Behind", So in the End, there is Nothing Still Separating God From God. Amen. Ok?
Bawa. And please realize, without the slightest doubt, My Dearest Loving Children, that it is Just As Hard for "Our" dearest loving Son, and your brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), to "Be The Choice" for your life, as for My Children to "Make The Choice", that is, to accept Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) over "you", that is, for you to accept Him as who in truth "You Really Are", for your life.
Bawa. "We Are All One", So in truth there are No Winners In This Game of God, in this Story of God, in this Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man", except for the Creation of God, Everyone Else is God Revealing God To God, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God, No matter what Role you "May Appear To Be Playing", either the Role of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), as this child is Now Playing, or the role of My Children, that you are Now Play, that is, Either the Role of "The Choice" or the Role of "Making the Choice", for in truth it is all the same, for in truth "It Is All God". Amen. Ok?
19. What Causes Our Mind To Truly Sit Down? Question asked by Jean (Granny) (Ral.) at the Sunday Meeting, on 03-02-08
Suggested Answer"
Bawa. What causes your mind to truly sit down is Either "you" learning about the nature of your mind, Or "Your Wisdom" standing up.
Initial Review:
Bawa. For as "We" taught My Children when "We" were living in the world,
"Your Mind will only sit down when your wisdom stands up".
And:
"Your wisdom will only stand up when you "Call Me".
That is:
"Before you do anything "Call Me", call "Me" Jesus (A.S.), call "Me" Murugan (one of the 201 Names of Muhammad (Sal.), call "Me" Nur Muhammad (Sal.), call "Me" Qutb Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), or call "Me" Bawa Adam (Ral.), but "Call Me", for in truth "They are all One".
Bawa. For in truth "They" are "The 6 wisdoms that surround God", They are "The 6 Faces of Clarity known as Muhammad (Sal.)", They are "The 6 Faces of God", the 6 wisdoms Now known for your age and for your life as Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.).
Bawa. And as "We" taught you when "We" were living in the world, and Now as recorded for you as Chapter 21, "The Six Faces", in the beautiful book of wisdom, "The Pearl of Wisdom" (www.ThePearlOfWisdom.homestead.com), starting on page 72,
"They are the six wisdoms which are beyond estimation, beyond imagination, and beyond pleasure. They distinguish the truth that surrounds God, discipline the body, melt the heart, and like the season of spring sprout the six kinds of wisdom."
"They are known as Kandan, Kandampan, Murugan, Velan, and Veliraivan (God of Vel), and by several other Names as well. They exist in every religion."
"People refer to them according to the depths of their understanding, but nobody has discovered the True Meaning (that in truth, Now Man and God are One, if you like), and reached the End, (Until Now)".
Bawa. All of which is Now Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), if you like, which is Now "Who You Are", is Now "Where You Are", and is Now "What Is Happening" in your life, if you like, for the Choice is yours, not God's.
20. Where Do We See Our Own Faults? Question asked by "The Life" of Shams (Ral.) at the Sunday Meeting, on 03-02-08
Bawa. You see your own faults Either within yourself, Or within others.
Bawa. For as "We" taught My Children when "We" were living in the world,
"My Children, you must not find fault with any of God's Creation, you must realize that the Center is within. You must "Open Your Wisdom", Stand in the Center, and look intently at Yourself. Then you will Understand the Point."
"Do not waste your time looking at other people trying to figure out why they act the way they do, because if you do Everything will go wrong, because each person sees his own faults in others."
Bawa. And as "We" taught My Children when "We" were living in the world,
"If you see a fault in someone else, realize that "you only see it" in others because "you have it" within yourself, So instead of wasting your time looking at others on the "outside" of you go looking for examples of this fault within yourself, and most certainly you will find them, examples of this fault that you were previously seeing in others".
"Then as you find examples within yourself of this fault ask God to forgive "you", to forgive "you" for each example of this fault that you continue to find within yourself, and if you keep doing this, over and over again, for each fault that you mistakenly see in others, then when you are done this "Hearts Work", in partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, using your wisdom, which in truth is your Guru or Shaikh, which in truth is your point, or connection, or focus to God, then you will no longer see this fault in others, and this is the truth, Now for your age and for your life". Amen. Ok?
21. How Many Gods Do We Truly Have In Our Lifetime? Question asked by "The Life" of Ahmad Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) at theS unday Meeting on 03-02-08
Suggested Anwer:
Bawa. In your lifetime you Either have One God, as all of the Religions believe and teach, Or you have Three Gods in your lifetime, as Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) teaches you for your age and for your life.
Initial Review:
Bawa. For as "We" taught My Children when "We" were living in the world,
"You have 3 Gods in your life, your First God is your mother and your father. Your mother teaches you about your body, and your fathe r teaches you about the world".
"Your Second God is your Guru, your Shaikh. He teaches you about your soul and about the relationship between your soul and God".
"And your Third God is God. He teaches you about God"
Bawa. And for these Three Gods to be valuable to your life you must come to each one of them as a child, for your cannot raise an adult, and you must come to them in the proper sequence, First coming to your First God, to your parents, to your mother and father as a child, letting them raise you into your parents, in to your First God, Second coming to your Second God, to your Guru, to your Shaikh, after becoming your First God, after first becoming "your parents", this time coming to your Guru, to your Shaikh Again as a Child, as a Child that He must raise, raise to be your Second God, not coming as "your parents", not coming as your First God, and Third, finally coming to your Third God, to God, after first becoming your Second God, after first becoming the Guru, after first becoming the Shaikh, this time finally coming to God Again as a Child, as a Child that God must Now raise, raise to be your Third God, not coming as the Guru, not coming as the Shaikh, not coming as your Second God.
Bawa. This is How You Must Use the Three God in your lifetime, one after the other, in the proper sequence, letting each raise you to become Them, at the appropriate point in your life, always coming to Them as a Baby, never as "your parents" to the Guru, to the Shaikh, and never as the Guru to God, never as the Shaikh to God, always letting your Next God put down your Current God, letting our Next God put down what you are coming as, as the God you have become, and transform you into Him, into your Next God.
Bawa. For example, with you coming as "your parents", as your First God, to the Guru, to the Shaikh, letting your Guru End "you" as your First God, as "your parents", and reveal "You" as your Second God, as the Guru, as the Shaikh, and then with you coming as the Guru, as the Shaikh to God, letting God End "You" as the Guru, as the Shaikh, letting God reveal "You" as your Third God, as God.
Bawa. In this way, Always letting your Next God raise you, as a Baby from within what you have Now Become, always joining with your Next God to put down your Last God, and in this way, and only in this way, for "You" to become your Next God, and Never jumping out of this sequence, that is, Always First becoming "your parents", Second becoming your Guru, becoming your Shaikh, and then, and only then, Third becoming God.
Bawa. And Never trying to have a relationship with the God of your Next God, Never trying to jump a Step, as an excuse for not truly taking the Next Step, for not truly giving up your Last God, for not truly giving up "you" as Now having become your Last God, that is, for not truly giving up who you have Now Become, that is, the God you have Now Become, which in the case of My Children is Now your First God, is Now "you" living as "your parents.
Bawa. A mistake that My Children keep trying to do, that is, with My Children trying to have a relationship with the God of the Guru, the God of the Shaikh, before you have truly become the Guru, before you have truly become the Shaikh.
Bawa. For as "We" taught My Children when "We" were living in the world,
"The apple fruit is connected to the tree, not to the earth, and in this way, it is the tree that is connected to the earth, not the fruit".
"And in the same way, God is connect to the Guru, to the Shaikh, not to the Disciple, and in this way, it is Guru, it is the Shaikh that is connected to the Disciple, not God".
"And in this way, God will only accept you after the Guru, after the Shaikh has accepts you".
Bawa. So instead of all of this foolishness, My Dearest Loving Children, that is of "you" as "your parents, as your First God, trying to "Pray to God" directly, that is, of "you" as your First God trying to "Pray" to your Third God, without First Becoming your Second God, First become a Baby of the Guru, a Baby of the Shaikh, So He can put down your First God, and transform you into your Second God, So you can then truly "Pray" to your Third God.
Bawa. So your Second God, So your Guru, your Shaikh can truly join in partnership with God, with God within the Guru, with God within the Shaikh, that is, with your Third God, to put down all of your current foolishness, that you have Now become, that is, to put down your First God that you have Now become.
Bawa. For example, So He can destroy the Ego, So He can overcome the "Enemy of the soul", So He can transform the "form of the satan" into the "Form of God", So He can do battle with the "Enemy of the soul", in order to liberate your soul from the Cross of Jesus (peace be upon Him), catching your soul in the "Body of Truth" that He harvests from your ocean of illusion, if you will only let Him.
Bawa. And in truth you have already learned About How It Works, that is, About this process of moving from the Child to God, by letting your parents raise you, that is, by you becoming the Child to your First God, that is, by you coming to your mother and father as a child, So they could accept you as "their child" and raise you, So in time you could become them, So in time you could your First God, you could become "your parents".
Bawa. And in this way, by you moving through this process correctly, that is, by you coming to your First God in the proper sequence, and by you coming to them as a Child, you allowed them to raise you, you allowed them to give you "What They Had", with you Now becoming your First God, and in this way, you have Now become your mother and your father, that is, you have Now became the body and desire of your mother, and the mind and drama of your father, all of which is Now the current "life and state and form" of My Children.
Bawa. But in truth this is where all of My Children have Now Stopped, you have Now become your First God, you have Now become "your parents", but you have failed to make the next transition, that is, the transition from your First God to your Second God, because you have failed to put down your First God, because you have failed to put down "you" Now being "your parents", become you have failed to become the Child of the Guru, the Child of the Shaikh, the Child of your Second God, So He can put "you" down as your First God, and So He can Now accept you as "His Child" and raise you, raise "You" as your Second God, but this time not with the body and mind and desire of your parents, but this time with wisdom, but this time with the grace, the wisdom, and the 'Ilm or divine knowledge of God.
Bawa. For in truth there is a tremendous limit to this First of your Three God's, and that is your elemental body, and that is your mind of "separation and differences", and that is your intellect, all of which in truth is the "form of the satan", all of which in truth is only leading you to the Angel of Death (peace be upon Him), to the "suffering of the grave", where after you die to the flesh, if you are not wise, you will roam the earth world within you as a demon, a jinn, a fairy, or a ghost, until Qiyamah (the Standing Forth; the Day of Judgment).
Bawa. Until Qiyamah (the Standing Forth; the Day of Judgment), where Again if you are not wise, you will take on as part of your Judgment 105 million rebirths, ending as a worm in hell with only one level of consciousness, or feeling, that is, you will take on as part of your Judgment an eternal life within you as "separate from" God within you.
Bawa. That is, if in your lifetime you do not truly become your Second God, or at least truly Start to, in partnership with, as "One with" your Second God, and Start to truly Pray to your Third God, that is, if you do not become the Guru, if you do not become the Shaikh, in your own lifetime, if you do not become the "Form of God", or at least truly Start to, in partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, So God can then do "Everything Else" to make your life truly successful in your lifetime.
Bawa. And you cannot truly become your Second God, you cannot truly become the Guru, the Shaikh, unless you First become the Baby of the Guru, the Baby of the Shaikh, truly handing to the Guru, to the Shaikh, all that your parents gave to you when you came to them as a Baby, that is, when you let them "Raise You", when you let your First God, when you let "your parents", give you "Everything that they had", which in truth is Everything that their parents gave to them, when they were a child.
Bawa. And in truth this is How It Works, this process of moving through the Three Gods, One by One in your lifetime, First when you are the child of your parents, and Second when you truly become the Child of the Guru, the Child of the Shaikh, and Third, when you become the Child of God, with each of these Three Gods giving you what They have, One by One, each in its turn, allowing you to become Them.
Bawa. For in truth you cannot become the Baby of the Guru, the Baby of the Shaikh, until you have successfully come to your parents as a child, and in this way, until you have let them raise you, until you have let your parents give you Everything that they have, transforming you into "your parents", into your First God, into the "form of the satan", into the "Enemy of the soul", all of which in truth is Now the current state of all of My Children.
Bawa. And Now you cannot become the Baby of God, until you have successfully come to your Guru, to your Shaikh as a Child, and in this way, until you have let Him raise you, until you have let Him give you Everything that He has, transforming you into the Guru, into the Shaikh, into the Triple Flame of God, into the "Fire of God", into the "Presence" of God, into the "Word of God" for your age and for all life, all of which is Now the current state of "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brothers Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Us, and with Him), in whom "We are well pleased".
Bawa. And this is the Only Problem of all of My Children, you are still "your parents", you are still in the "form of the satan", you have Now become your First God but you will not put it down, and become your Second God, Instead you want to use the First God to directly Pray to your Third God, when in truth there is No Direct Connection between your First God and your Third God, because in truth your Third God is hidden within your Second God, just like the apple fruit is hidden within the apple tree, not within the apple seed, while it is the apple tree that is hidden within the apple seed buried within the earth, just waiting for the apple seed to germinate, that is, to let itself End, So the apple tree hidden within it can appear, and then the apple tree can reveal the apple fruits.
Bawa. And this is the Only Problem of My Children, you will not put down your First God, So you can become your Second God, So you can Pray Directly to your Third God, that is, you will not Again become a Baby, but this time a Baby of the Guru, but this time a Baby of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, So He can "Raise You", So He can transform you into Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you.
Bawa. Instead "you", Now as "your parents", Now as your First God, are trying to have a direct relationship with your Third God, who in truth only has a relationship with your Second God, that is, a relationship with the One who is Now trying to raise "You" as your Second God within your First God, that is, who is trying to raise "Your" as the "Child of Light" within the "child of darkness", that is, who is trying to raise "You" as the "Form of God" within the "form of the satan", if you will only let Him, if you will only join Him, as "One with" Him, as "His Baby", in this "Glorious Endeavor", before you die to the flesh.
Bawa. And in this way, My Dearest Loving Children, this is Now True Success in Your life, not any of the current silliness that My Children are Now doing, that is, if you will only Let Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) Have His Way with you, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, all of which in truth is the Straight Path of God, within God within you, is the "Way of the Lord", Now for your age and for your life, all of which in truth is the Story of God, the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man", that you have come to this earth world, to Join as One with God, and with the Creation of God, within God within you, to tell, So in the End, "No Child Is Left Behind", So in the End, there is "Nothing Still Separating God From God". Amen. Ok?.
22. Who Am I? Question asked by "The Life" of John (Ral.) at the Sunday Meeting, on 03-02-08
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. You are Either the "Shirt" for the soul, which is what your parents gave you, when they rolled around like snakes on a bed, a story that God then took from your parents, printed, put a cover on, animated with the soul, and then handed to you, Or you are the soul.
Bawa. That is, Either you are of the Creation of God, Or you are Of God.
Initial Review:
Bawa. For as "We" taught My Children when "We" were living in the world,
"The only thing that can return to God is what came from God, and that is your soul, which is a ray of light coming to the Nur Muhammad on the forehead of Adam (peace be upon Him), in truth everything else that you are Now experiencing as "your life" grew here and in truth has no interest in returning to God".
And:
"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."
