We are permitted [the act of invoking] the ethereal protective circle.
If we are instructing you to say the name of HDE Gohar Shahi 25 times and cast an ethereal circle around you,
the angelic protectors would surely oblige our instructions.
You must only try casting [the ethereal circle around you].
Ethereal Shield for Protection Against Satanic Attacks
I tell you of one thing that I do,
and I advise you to do the same.
When I do it, I find benefit,
so I am faithful that you too shall find benefit from this.
Now, I have been doing this for quite some time.
What is it that I do?
Say I sit to engage in Zikr.
Like I told you, when I resided in Karachi,
I would go to the cemetery at night.
I would find myself in many different situations,
one of which was quite dangerous; I was quite apprehensive when this happened.
So what happened?
I was at the Mewa Shah cemetery within which there was an inconspicuous tomb
locally named: 'Shrine of Mushtaq Baba',
and directly behind it was an open and empty grave.
When I saw that there was nothing in it
I peeped in and saw there was nothing inside.
So, since I knew there is nothing inside, I would sit in it at night and I would engage in zikr.
Now, one day, I got a real fright.
A tall, dark-skinned man approached me,
grabbed my legs and started dragging me.
I called for HDE and blew upon him...
He appeared to be dark, however,
when I'd blow upon him with HDE’s name,
a flame would emerge from within the darkness.
I would see fire within him.
When I would blow on him with HDE’s name and say, ‘Ya Gohar Shahi Almadad!’
His darkness would dissipate and reveal the fire within.
Now, he was pulling me...
He pulled me halfway through the grave and I was petrified!
I cannot put into words the fear that coursed through me.
Then I suddenly see that HDE Gohar Shahi has arrived,
and as soon as they do, the man escapes.
When HDE Gohar Shahi appeared and the man escaped,
the Lord said something to me.
Firstly, They said, 'I told you that you would be given everything in the comfort of your home. Why did you come here?
There was no need for you to come here. You should not have come here’.
Then HDE Gohar Shahi said, 'Now do this.
Whenever and wherever you engage in Zikr,
say my name and make a circle around you’.
This is called 'Hisar'.
Now, it is enough to say HDE Gohar Shahi's name once,
but you like to be told a specific number,
so I'll tell you to say HDE Gohar Shahi's name 25 times and make a circle around you.
Otherwise, you can even say ‘Ya Gohar Shahi Almadad’ just once and trace a circle around yourself.
Perhaps it may not be sufficient for you [to say it once]
because, in order to create a powerful circle around you, using the Lord’s name, you must have divine energy in your index finger
as that is what creates the circle.
This is why I say perhaps doing it once would not be enough to protect you.
You need to have divine energy in your index finger to be able to produce that circle.
For instance, if you want to encircle someone with rope,
you can’t just call upon the rope for it to appear, right?
You would only be able to make a circle with that rope if you have it in your hands.
Similarly, if you have divine energy in your index finger
then you can create a protective circle around yourself using the Lord’s name.
Otherwise, you can simply say that it’s done although nothing will come of it.
You’ve simply moved your finger around.
You don’t have divine energy in your finger; you can only create the protective circle if you have divine energy.
If you don’t have divine light,
[then] recite the name of HDE Gohar Shahi 25 times
and the name of HDE Gohar Shahi shall make an ethereal protective circle around you like a rosary.
If you want to practise Transcendental Meditation or even offer salah, do so by creating the etheric protective circle around you
so that you are protected against satanic interference.
Whatever you are going to do - like, you’re about to sleep,
so before you go to sleep, create that protective shield around you so that you can sleep peacefully.
Now, what used to happen to me was when I would go to sleep,
all sorts of evil creatures and monsters would launch attacks on me.
The reason for this was
that I would spend my nights on the streets of Karachi.
At times, I would be going to Liaquatabad from Old Golimar, to Quwwat ul Islam Mosque, all on foot.
There’s a stream, called Gujjar Stream that ran [through the city].
It had a terrible stench.
I would walk along [the stream] and it was a very haunted stream.
Many djinns would come over me because I’d walk by the stream.
When I’d sleep, they’d trouble me.
However, when I began protecting myself with the etheric shield then I slept peacefully.
This protective shield solved a lot of my problems.
If you create this protective shield around you before you go to sleep, you will not be in any danger.
Give it a try, you never know, it could work for you.
Reciting the Lord’s name 25 times will generate a small circle around you.
If you try to generate a large shield around you,
then 25 recitations of the Lord’s name would not be enough.
So just circle your body, like this.
Don’t try to create a city-wide shield;
25 recitations would not suffice for that.
So, I advise you to start creating this protective shield around you
before offering prayers, reciting the Qur’an, and even before sleeping so that there is no danger.
That Hisar will protect you. Believe me.
There are many different types of Hisar (ethereal protective shield).
There is an external Hisar, there is also an internal Hisar.
There is a satanic Hisar, and there is also a divine Hisar.
When one obtains sainthood,
God almighty renders a Hisar around him.
That is a divine Hisar.
That person (who has become a saint) cannot be freed from that Hisar.
For example, Prophet Muhammad (s)
you know, it’s like a knot, like tying a knot [around you].
So, when you are connected to the Prophet (s),
the Prophet (s) shall tie their knot around you so
that you stay within the shield of their love instead of wandering here and there.
The Spiritual Master also casts a Hisar (around the disciple).
After three years, when the [disciple’s] heart is strengthened,
when one becomes a Fana fi Sheikh. Now, how does one actually become a Fana fi Sheikh?
With the Master’s Hisar.
The Spiritual Master casts a Hisar [around the disciple].
People with spiritual sight are able to see the Hisar the Spiritual Master casts on his disciples
they understand the disciple must be very special.
If there is no Hisar protecting the disciple, they understand the Master does not care for the disciple
they may do as they please; stay or leave.
However, those whose hearts are shielded by the Hisar,
the people with spiritual sight are able to determine their value in the eyes of the Master.
So, there are many different types of Hisar.
Now, when the Occultation occurred,
I was quite troubled.
I would wonder how things would be resolved, how I would manage to gather everyone, how anything would happen.
At that point, I was reminded of something HDE Gohar Shahi said.
I was in America with the Lord, when the Lord resided in Cherry Hill.
I was sitting with the Lord and they were speaking to us.
They were sitting on the sofa, and we were sitting in front of them.
So, there were a few of us and then at some point, all those who felt sleepy left the room one by one.
Now, it was just His Divine Eminence and me, no one else was in the room.
So, I asked HDE Gohar Shahi,
'How would we be able to tell how much someone has progressed in spirituality
and how benevolent you have been on them from their actions?'
HDE Gohar Shahi said, 'I am not bothered about their actions'.
So I asked, 'Lord, then how are we to know of your benevolence [upon someone]?'
HDE Gohar Shahi said, 'The greatest benevolence I bestowed upon someone that pleased us is
that we bound an etheric protective circle around their chest.
Then, even if they are involved in [unfavourable] acts, Satan cannot affect them'.
They uttered, ‘We are care-free of those upon whose chests we have cast an ethereal guard over.
They cannot go astray.
[When] the land holds firm his feet in a storm, that’ll be the ethereal guard’.
Then, after the occultation [of HDE Gohar Shahi]
we saw that Satan attacked people in the swathes; their thoughts and their sight were under attack.
However, no attack ever reached the hearts of those that HDE Gohar Shahi had protected with their Hisar.
So this was the greatest benevolence of the Lord, that of shielding the entire bosom, of placing an armour of their spiritual attention.
The Lord said, ‘We do not care for actions; they are deceptive’.
What matters to the Lord most is to purify and enlighten what is to return to God.
Your actions have no value in the eyes of God.
Your actions are simply evidence of your servitude to God in this world.
The real deal is to awaken and purify the ethereal spirits,
to make them a mirror [of God].
The greatest benevolence of HDE Gohar Shahi was
that the chest was guarded with the spiritual attention of the Lord.
The faiths of those were safeguarded whose chests were protected by HDE Gohar Shahi
and it was such people that said, 'Whose coffin is this? Take it away, HDE Gohar Shahi has nothing to do with it!'
Such people felt terrible unease [in this situation].
They could not tolerate it. Why?
Their chests were shielded with the etheric protective circle of the spiritual sight of HDE Gohar Shahi!
Just as people tie the Imam Zamin around (their arms) before travelling. Don’t they tie the Imam Zamin?
Why do they do that? For protection.
Who is the one that permitted you to wear the Imam Zamin?
If the one who permitted you is an Imam from the household of the Prophet (s),
is a Godly person and a Fakir,
then he will have enclosed angelic protectors within the amulet that shall guard you.
If anyone else were to write the same words and bind them in the Imam Zamin, you will not be protected whatsoever.
If anyone else does it, you shall not be protected.
Similarly, there is the Ayat ul Kursi.
People recite the Ayat ul Kursi and blow upon people for their protection,
but why do they not find protection?
You are not protected because you do not have divine energy in you.
The angelic protectors within the Ayat ul Kursi only listen to the command of the one whose heart is enlightened.
But you do not have divine energy in your heart.
We are permitted [the act of invoking] the ethereal protective circle.
If we are instructing you to say the name of HDE Gohar Shahi 25 times and cast an ethereal circle around you,
the angelic protectors would surely oblige our instructions.
You must only try casting [the ethereal circle around you].
Try it and see what happens.
But you must strictly only use this for your own protection
and for the protection of your family members that believe in HDE Gohar Shahi.
For the protection of your children, for the protection of your faith,
you are permitted to cast this Hisar.
However, only those are permitted to do so who are listening to me right now.
Do not think if you inform someone else of this that you have given them permission to do this. It will not work.
In order for the Hisar to be cast successfully, it is important for my voice to reach your ears.
If you are listening to my words and then you cast the Hisar, it shall work for you. It shall not work if you hear it from someone else.
You understand the technicalities here, right?
Do not ask those who have been appointed to give Zikr to permit you to cast this Hisar.
They do not have the power to permit you. I have permission, and I am giving it to all of you.
The next time Bakra Eid comes, before Bakra Eid,
from the 1st of Zu'Hijj,
I have decided that I will give the spiritual benevolence of the Holy Black Stone to several people,
and I shall attach their spiritual hearts with the Holy Black Stone;
only to those whose hearts I deem capable of this benevolence.
What is the benefit of this?
When your heart is connected to the Holy Black Stone,
you shall become a half-saint, and thereafter the Kaaba shall begin circumambulating around you.
