Sufism Sufism is the path of love
Sufism is the path of purification
Sufism is to polish the mirror of your
heart and bring back its lost shine and
polish the mirror of your heart to an
extent where your heart is able to
reflect
the image of whomsoever it is in front
of sufism
[Music]
is to apply to God the grant of his love
love is not something that you already
have or that you know how to perform
love is a commodity the monopoly of
which lies with God alone you begin to
love God only after God has granted his
love to your heart and in order to know
whether or not God wants to grant you
his love
you adopt Sufism
when you adopt Sufism you do not simply
go to a bookstore or a library and get a
few books of Sufism study them and you
consider yourself that you have adopted
Sufism adopting Sufism is adapting the
ways of Sufism adopting Sufism is
adapting the ways of Sufism
in order to adopt Sufism one has to have
a Sufi master why is there something
special that he's going to tell you no
it is not going to tell you anything
you think something is special
is hidden to you nothing is hidden to
you
if a master will do
is something that you cannot do yourself
adopting Sufism involves enlightenment
activation of the heart
when we say activation of the heart
we're not implying the same heart that
is beating in your chest
it's already activated
right but the heart which is already
activated in your chest the same type of
heart is activated in a dog then what is
the difference between a dog heart in a
human heart
what is the difference between a dog
heart
a human heart our dog's heart is just a
physical heart does the same job
the physical heart in a human breast
does
but what extra a human heart has is what
makes a human being superior to the rest
of the
Oh God the extra bit on the human heart
is a dormant soul
which sits on the physical heart God has
granted this potential
to every single human being regardless
of the religion
practices whether he practices
a religion which was established
by a messenger or a prophet sent by God
or he practices a religion
a set of principles carved
thought of by human beings
[Music]
every single human
being has this potential and that
potential is a dormant soul
and it is a celestial soul
you
and the celestial saw
is sitting on your physical heart
when you do not know that there is a
soul dormant soul sitting on your
physical heart when you do not know this
knowledge
activated if
you need to be told about what is inside
you
do you have any control over the things
that you do not know well you don't even
know what is inside you you don't even
know that
I mean how could you consider yourself
capable
of activating
treasure which has been placed in you by
God
so activation of that soul that sits on
the physical heart is enlightenment of
the spiritual heart awakening of the
spiritual heart the Gateway
love
and you will obtain this
of the spiritual heart only through a
divinely ordained spiritual mediator
a spiritual agent
a mediator is one who acts like a bridge
between two clients
in Sufism and spirituality
the spiritual mediator
makes a bridge between men and God
why does he do it
because God appoints such a sufi to do
it so that gods
the tension lovers of God
not be left stranded
god always sends spiritual masters and
mediators
those aspiring to seek spiritual
knowledge those who are aching
to find ways to love God through the
spiritual mediator
connected to God
sufism
you
and there is a mystery in the Western
world
man are often of shahu for Hut or
afforable
there's this mystery
I studied so many books of Sufis and
obviously some of you would have
the same
and there are many
who interpret
and who translate the divine text the
divine text which came
prophets and messengers and the divine
text
which was indirectly
granted to common he
beings
bedded in the speech of prophets and
messengers
you
and they fail
to comprehend
the hidden meaning of the divine text
on this occasion we're
I gave the Sufi garb to some of the
here tonight
as a token of their acceptance
I would like to mention Hmong are often
of Sahu
ro4 Abajo I have been given
this
hidden meaning
to share with you
and I would like to share this with you
today nufs
is of two types terrestrial
and celestial
nafse terrestrial and celestial
the terrestrial nafs is Latifa enough
and the celestial nerves is Latifah Anna
the celestial nafs is Latifah Anna when
Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
said man are a fan of Sahu he did not
mean Latifah enough he meant Latifah
Anna Hmong are a fan of Shahu who has
enlightened his Latif Ayane faqad arafa
Abu who only he will know God because
this belongs to God
this is why we call it the self Anna in
Arabic language
Anna means I the self
God in us this is the representation of
God in us honor when Mansoor hollered
said on al-haq he meant in his head
resides the Lord and al-haq the truth is
in me
Huck is in me how through the
representation of Latifah Ana Ana means
I
do you understand my point man are often
of Sahu not this nufs there are many
among Sufis who enlightened and purified
their Latifah nerves
but they never saw God however according
to this hadith Qudsi anyone who
successfully purifies his nufs would
come to know of god's reality but there
are many thousand Sufis
who were successful in him purifies
their relative enough they never got
Irfan of Allah
so this word nufs in this particular
prophetic tradition
referre
to the lower self Latifah enough
rather it is referred to the higher self
well which is notify Anna this is why
the lower shelf
is directly connected to the higher-self
this is why the lower self is directly
connected to the higher self this is why
you tie it with a knot of Yahoo the
higher self the lower self when this is
purified and this is purified you are
complete self
