Chapter: | On knowing manifestation and its secrets. |
Page 485 - from Volume Two (Display Image)In terms of its images, it is not possible for them to do that, for in their solitude they must see images of the wall, door, ceiling, machinery in which the house of solitude has been built, and the lining and cover and food and drink. Not from actions, because if the person in seclusion were with animals, he would still be in seclusion and would not distract him from what he wanted unless he was afraid of their harm. Also, if there was a tendency in the wall, he would be afraid of it being destroyed and falling on him. If he chooses to abandon except for the words that people speak with, if he understands what he is talking People using it in the manner that the truth has placed in them, he would increase his knowledge of what he did not have, and if he prayed one prayer, I mean one rak ah, he would not have asked for abandonment. For this is one of the honors of the righteous that God hears them uttering things. If that does not benefit them with knowledge, that would not be a blessing from God for them. Whoever has been provided with understanding on behalf of God equals solitude and solitude with him. Rather, sitting may be more complete in his right and greater benefit, because at every moment he increases knowledge of God that he did not have. ( In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful ) Chapter two hundred and six in the case of manifestation in the gymFor the unseen is a light over the insights *** He reveals what was in the secrets For every heart of every person *** brought him the right to the lecturer So see how the matter is going *** and behold the judgment in the resources He has a first and an outward *** and we have an inner and a last His division is like praying in us *** an eye for an eye, so be thankful and hurry up What is between a slave locked up is helpless *** and a God over him is able Thanks to him, it has been revealed to us *** What praise be to God in consciences [ Transfiguration is that which is revealed to the hearts by the lights of the unseen ]Know that the manifestation in the people is what is revealed to the hearts of the lights of the unseen, and it is on different stations. It relates to the lights of the names, including what is related to the lights of births and mothers, and the causes and causes on their levels, so every light of these lights, if it rises from the horizon and coincides with the eye of insight, safe from blindness, blindness, cracks, conjunctivitis, and afflictions of the eyes, reveals with every light what it spreads, so examine the meanings of what they are in themselves and examine their connection With pictures of words and words indicating them, and by his witnessing of them, she gave him what they are from the facts in the same matter without imagination or confusion. About our faith that supports us, and among them are lights that are from our pious left, and among them are lights that are above us, descend upon us to benefit us, and from them are lights that are below us that we possess by disposing of them, and among them are lights that we make of them. It is in our tidings, in our poems, in our poetry, and in our poetry, and it is the end of the matter. As for the lights of meanings that are abstract from matter, every knowledge is not related to a body, or a body, or an imaginary, or an image, and we do not know it in terms of its conception, but rather we comprehend it as it is, but with what we are, and that is only until I am a light. I was like this, so I don't realize anything from this knowledge, which is what he said In his supplication, may God s prayers and peace be upon him, and make me a light And God says, God is the light of the heavens and the earth, so it is not illuminated except by it, as he said, and the earth shines with the light of its Lord, meaning the land of the gathering. its Lord, and every soul knows by that light what it forwards and delays, not by it, you will find it present which He reveals to it. |
