The Difference Between A Common Disciple & An Elite Disciple
When a Spiritual Master takes the responsibility of supervising a disciple, first the Spiritual Master makes arrangements for it.
Do you understand?
For example, Shahid is in charge of everything here and if he says he needs to go to Dubai for a month,
I will ask him who will run everything here?
So Shahid will say that he has prepared his team, he has given them training and they will take care of everything.
So there are two things here.
How many? Two things.
Firstly, there are some disciples who are always in the spiritual concentration of the Spiritual Master.
He keeps the common disciples under his spiritual concentration.
Now, I am speaking from another perspective, therefore those whom I refer to as “common” disciples are in fact, elite disciples.
I will explain this another day.
So those whom I am referring to as common disciples today are in fact the elite disciples
and those whom I refer to as elite are the elite of the elites.
So the Spiritual Master keeps his common disciples under his spiritual concentration at all times
which fulfils all their spiritual needs.
However, when it comes to supervision, it is not for the common disciples.
It is for those who are appointed on duty.
Supervision is for those who are appointed on duty.
Now, what is that supervision?
We have the statement of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi for this.
“Successful is one who obtains two things”.
“Successful is one who obtains two things."
"A Spiritual Heart which engages in constant commemoration of God’s name
and a Spiritual Master that is able to remotely supervise you no matter the distance”.
This is a statement of His Divine Eminence.
The first person to tell me about this was Nadeem’s elder and Anwar’s younger brother, the middle one.
He came and told me what His Divine Eminence said.
This is a very important statement but understanding it completely is imperative.
Thousands of people have heard this statement even in Pakistan but how many understood what it means?
This has very strict conditions which cannot be applied to everyone.
Even if your heart is engaged in the commemoration of God’s name, the condition here is: constant commemoration.
Successful is one whose Spiritual Heart engages in constant, nonstop commemoration of God’s name.
You don’t fall in this category if your heart becomes silent after commemorating God’s name 40,000-50,000 times in a day.
It has to be nonstop.
Nonstop commemoration.
What constitutes nonstop commemoration?
Nonstop.
Nonstop means it is constantly happening.
Successful is one who obtains two things.
First, a Spiritual Heart that engages in nonstop commemoration of God’s name.
Second, a Spiritual Master that is able to remotely supervise you no matter the distance.
Out of these two things, the first condition is the most important.
If your Spiritual Heart does not engage in constant commemoration of God’s name
then the Spiritual Master will not supervise your remotely.
So we understand that not every heart is able to engage in constant commemoration of God’s name
nor is every Spiritual Master capable of remote supervision.
Right?
Not every heart can engage in constant commemoration of God’s name as it is a special divine grant.
So neither can every heart engage in constant commemoration of God’s name
nor is every Spiritual Master capable of conducting remote supervision.
Now, let’s suppose the Spiritual Master is capable of supervising his disciple remotely, so what is the issue here?
The question is do you have a capable heart?
Your Spiritual Master is capable of supervising you remotely but is your heart capable of receiving that supervision?
Why is it necessary to have a Spiritual Heart that engages in constant commemoration of God’s name
in order to receive remote supervision from the Spiritual Master?
Let’s suppose the Spiritual Master wants to supervise you
and he sends a message to you spiritually
and in that moment your Spiritual Heart was silent and heedless of the commemoration of God’s name
and the Devil interferes with the message.
This leaves both you and the Spiritual Master worried.
Why is the Spiritual Master worried?
You will think the message is from the Spiritual Master but due to the interference from the Devil,
you will become misguided and the blame will fall on the Spiritual Master.
This is why it is crucial to have a Spiritual Heart that engages in constant commemoration of God’s name
in order to receive the supervision from the Spiritual Master,
so that no matter when Spiritual Master sends a message to you, your heart is ready to accept it immediately.
For example, we make orders online on eBay and Amazon, right?
We can only accept the delivery if we are at home.
If we are not at home, the delivery man will go back.
So what do we understand?
In order to accept the delivery, you must stay at home until it arrives.
You stayed at home all day but then decided to leave and the delivery man came in your absence, so he went back.
Not everyone is supervised by the Spiritual Master.
