Recent experiences of this child,
That is, of Bawa "Correcting the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), That is, of Bawa "Curing Himself of you", Of "you" living as if "you" are "separate from" God, 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".
That is,
"Of Bawa putting all of His Children within Himself, within "His Bag", within the "Bag or Purse of the Qutb", like so many stones of little value, with rough edges and dirt and all, and then with Bawa twirling "His Bag", twirling His Children with their faults and all, letting one stone bang off the rough edges of another, letting one stone polish the others, until "You" come out as the perfect, polished gems of God, which Bawa then hands to God, to God within you, if you like, for the Choice is yours, not God's, that is, the Choice to stay in the "Bag of the Qutb", until "He Is Done", or not."

Click HERE to "Review" Page 2 of this Document, that is, to "Review" Questions 18 to 26 Only.
01. Why Are We "Still Alive" - and Why Has Destruction Not Yet
Happened?
Question asked for My Children by Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.)
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. Either because it is Not Yet Time for Destruction to occur, and/or it is Not Yet Time for you to die.
Bawa. Or because "Destruction itself has Now been Destroyed", as"We" told My Children it would be when "We" were living in the world, that is, if before "We" left the world at least One of My Children truly accomplished what "We" asked all of My Children to do, and One Has, and that is "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), in whom "We are well pleased".
Initial Review:
Bawa. For in truth Now "Us" and all of My Children are all living within the heart of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), which is Now the "Body of Truth", or the Qalb or Ahamd within all of My Children, that is, is Now "The Place" within each of My Children where the awakened wisdom has joined as "One with" the liberated soul, that is, "The Place" of Jesus (A.S.), of the Four Lettered "Crystal Heart" of "Alif, Mim, Hay, and Dahl", of the 4 Religions Now Joined as One.
Bawa. All of which is Now the "Palace of the Soul", the "House of Wisdom", the House of Qutb Muhaiyaddeen Abdul-Qadir al-Jilani (Ral.) within all of My Children.
Bawa. And within that is the "Secret Form of the Truth of Allah" or Alhamd, or the 5 Lettered "Secret World of Allah" of "Alif, Lam, Mim, Hay, and Dahl", or Firdaus, the 8th Heaven of Muhammad (Sal), the Kingdom of God, or the Hereafter or Akhirah, or "The Place" within Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within each of My Children where the awakened wisdom joined as "One with" the liberated soul, has Now joined as "One with" the Nur, with the Light of Wisdom, allowing the soul to "Realize Allah", if you like.
Bawa. For Now the Choice is yours, not God's, and Not Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen's, the Choice to truly accept and fall into Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) as Now "Who You Are", or Not, that is, before you die to the flesh, and aneternal hell becomes your lot
02. Why Do We "Keep Acting" On The Stage of Drama?
Question asked by Faqradeen (Ral.) at Sunday Meeting, on 02-24-08
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. Either because "you" have Not Yet Learned Enough about the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.).
Bawa. Or because you have Not Yet Surrendered to the Guru, Or because you have Not Yet Fallen into the Fire of God, that God has Now Given To all of My Children, for your age and for your life, Or because you have Not Yet Made Your Choice, between an eternal life within you as "One with" God within you, or an eternal life within you as "separate from" God, Or because "you" and Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) are still two separate being, Or because you still have qualities that Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) does not have

03. Why Are We Still "Separate From" God/Bawa?
Question asked by "The Life" of Ahmad Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) at Sunday Meeting,
on 02-17-08
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. Either because "you" have Not Yet Learned to Pray to God correctly, that is, to do the Zikr or Salat correctly or enough, or you have Not Yet Learned to Do Duty correctly or enough, that is, to do duty selflessly, with God's Qualities, or you have Not Yet Developed the Qualities of God.
Bawa. Or because "you" Are Still in the "form of satan", that is, "you" Are Still living the "life and state and form" of "separation from" that in your ignorance, and Now in your arrogance about your ignorance, you have Taken On as "who you are", as "where you are", and as "what is happening" in your life, all of which is "Just Not True", all of which in truth "Does Not Define You".
Initial Review:
Bawa. But all of which you have Now Brought to Maturity within you as the "Four Destructive Women", which in truth is Now your "current elemental body" of 9 Openings, that Now Rules Over You, with "God's Permission".
Bawa And all of which you have Now also Brought to Maturity within you as the "Four False Gurus", which in truth is Now your "mind and desire", which is Now your life of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of yourself, all of which truly starting to grow within you around the age of 3, when as a child, upon coming to this earth world, without an Understanding of "Yourself", without an Understanding of "Who You Already Are", you "Forgot God and fell into many a trap", no longer knowing to "Seek Yourself within Yourself, although God exists within Man".
Bawa. Or because, "You" have Not Yet Taken On the "Form of God", that is, the "Life and State and Form" of "Oneness with" that is Now being offered to you by God/Bawa, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, all of which in truth is Now "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, if you like.
[For more on these wisdom points, please read the Discourse by His Holiness, M. R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) dated 8/11/73, and the First Four Chapters in the beautiful book of wisdom, "The Pearl of Wisdom" (www.ThePearlOfWisdom.homestead.com), that is, "Signs of Spiritual Significance" (www.ThePearlOfWisdomChap01.homestead.com), and "Search For God", and "Search For A Guru", and "The Four Gurus". Planned Sharing with Ahmad Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.)]
04. What Are The "Significant Relationships" In Our Life?
Question asked by Abdul Qadir (Ral.) at Sunday Meeting, on 02-10-08
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. Either "You" as "One with" Or "you" as "separate from" God/Bawa, Either
"You" as "One with" Or "you" as "separate from" your brothers and sisters, and
Either "You" as "One with" Or "you" as "separate from" the Creation of God, within
God within you.
Initial Review:
Bawa. And the Choice is yours, not God's, that is, the Choice of how you will live,
both here, for a little while move on the "outside" of you, and then how and where you
will live for eternity.
Bawa. All of which in truth is Now happening within the heart of Shaikh
Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), not on the illusory "outside" of you, if you like, that is, within
the heart of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) which in truth is where "We" and all of My
Children Now live, both for a little while as the illusory "outside" of My Children, and
then for eternity.
Bawa. That is, Either as what is Now within God/Bawa within Shaikh
Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), Or as what is Now being discarded from Shaikh
Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) by God/Bawa, and then in the End, as what God/Bawa has
discarded from within Himself, in order to become God within Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen
(Ral.), for eternity, for in truth "There is No Other Choice".
Bawa. Such is the True Significance of My Children who truly Realized,
Understood, Accepted, and Joined as "One with" the life and teaching of Bawa
Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), before He left the world, that is, the True Significance of My
Children who truly did what "We" told all of My Children to do, before "We" left the
world.
Bawa. And Now, Such is the True Significance of "Our" dearest loving Son,
and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), who most certainly
did what "We" told all of My Children to do, before "We" left the world.
Bawa. And as Such, Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) is Now "Us" for all of My
Children, and Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) is Now both "The Here" for a little while,
for all of My Children, and then in the End, Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) is Now
"The Hereafter" for "Us" and for all of My Children.
Bawa. And Again, the Choice is yours, not God's, that is, the Choice of where and
how each of My Children will spend eternity within Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), as
Either God in the "Form of God", Or as "the satan" in the "form of satan".
Bawa. And in this way, Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) is Now the Judgment and
Salvation of all of My Children, is Now "How My Children" make this Choice, that
is, the Choice of where and how you will spend eternity, within Shaikh
Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), Either as "One with" God, as God, Or as "separate from" God,
as "the satan".
Bawa. And My Children Must Now Make This Choice by Either accepting, Or by
rejecting Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), that is, by Either accepting, Or by rejecting
the life and teaching of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), that is, by Either becoming
"One with", Or by staying "separate from" the life and teaching of Shaikh
Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), that is, by Either building your life around the life and teaching
of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), Or not, First on the "outside" of you and then
within you.
Bawa. And My Children must Now do this, before Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) too
leaves the world, for when He Too Leaves The World, then this earth world, this
"School of Contrast", this First of God's Schools, is All Over, and the Hereafter,
Eternity begins, Here and Now. And if you are wise, that is, if you have truly become
"My Wise Child", then the Next of God's Schools, the "School of Light" begins for My
Wise Children, within Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.).
Bawa. And if you are not wise, that is, if you truly refuse to accept this "Final Gift of
God" for your age and for your life, if you truly refuse to become "My Wise Child",
then an eternal hell becomes your eternal reward, all within Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen
(Ral.), then an eternal hell as "separate from" God/Bawa begins for My Children who
so refuse, and that is for sure, for the Choice is yours, not God's.
Bawa. For by My Children rejecting this "Final Gift of God", you have Chosen hell
over God, you have Chosen "the satan" over God, So what are "We" to do, but to give
you exactly "What you want", but to give you an eternal life of "separation from"
God/Bawa. [Planned Sharing with Abdul Qadir (Ral.)]
05. What Is True Change In "Our Life"?
Question asked by Jacob, Rahim, Austin, Veronica at Sunday Meeting, 02-3-08
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. Either "You" taking on the "Life and State and Form" of God, that is, Either "You" falling into the Fire of God for your age and for your life, before you die to the flesh, all of which is Now Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, that is, Either "You" building your life around the life and teaching of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.).
Bawa. Or "you" continuing to hold onto the "life and state and form" of "the satan" as "who you are", as "where you are", and as "what is happening" in your life, and the illusory life of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of yourself as "change" in your life.
Bawa. That is, Or "you" continuing to experience "the drama" of your life, you continuing to experience the illusory swing of happiness and sadness in your life, as "change" in your life, that is, Or "you" continuing to accept your current "life and state and form" of "the satan", all of which your parents gave to you by rolling around like snakes on a bed, as "change" in your life, until you die to the flesh, and an eternal life within Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) as "separate from" God within Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) becomes your eternal reward
Initial Review:
Bawa. That is, Either True Change is the drama of the life of the "Shirt", of "your" mind and desire", that is, of the 5 element mind and body that "you" are Now falsely experiencing as "who you are", as "where you are" and as "what is happening" in your life, that you are Now experiencing as your life of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of yourself, by keeping "your" soul which in truth is Jesus (peace be upon Him) crucified on the cross of your elemental body, So "you can sin", So you can continue to live your current life as if you are "separate from", that is, as if you are "separate from" God within you, 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", all of which in truth is just a 5 element shirt, a false life of sin, and a story of "separation and differences" that your parents created by rolling around like snakes on a bed, and which God then took, printed, put a cover on, animated with "your soul" and then handed to you
Bawa. Or True Change is when "You" realize this "Truth of your current life", without the slightest doubt, by sitting at the "Feet of God" for your age and for your life, when "You" listen to God Speak to the "Child of Light" within the "child of darkness" within you, that is, within your dark "room" or mind or heart, allowing God to "Cure Himself of you", of everything that is Now "Separating God from God" within you
(Planned Sharing with Jacob, and Rahim, and with Austin and Veronica (Ral.), and with all of the other Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us) who spoke during the Sunday Meeting, if you like)
06. Who Has Bawa Come For?
Question asked of Hamsa BeeBee Dale (Ral.) by Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.)
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. Either for "your soul", Or for "you", that is, Either to liberate your soul which in truth is Jesus (A.S.) from the cross of your elemental body, and return it to the Light and Sound of the Nur, allowing the soul to "Realize Allah", that is, to awaken the wisdom surrounding your soul, so the wisdom surrounding your soul can do battle with the "Enemy of your soul", Or for "you", for "you" who is Now the "Enemy of the soul", for "you" who Now refuses to Change "your form", from your "current form" of satan, to the "Form of God".
Initial Review:
Bawa. For if you don't, then God in the End will have no Choice but to let satan "have his way with you", that is, to let satan harvest "you", and claim "you" as "his property", and take "you" with him "yelling and screaming" to hell, that is, when in the End satan comes out of at least one of My Children, as "The Beast", and is blinded by the Light of the soul, which Now is Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), within God within you.
[Click HERE to read a Discourse by His Holiness, M. R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) on this wisdom point (www.spiritualdiscourse006.homestead.com)
Bawa. That is, Bawa has come into the world Either for "you" as the "shirt" of "your" soul, for "you" as the children of "your" mother and father, who "you" have Now become, and Now as "your" mother and father, for "your" children, Or for "your" soul, for that which "you" are Now keeping crucified on the "shirt", with the 5 nails of "your" desire to live on the illusory "outside" of "yourself" and sin, that is, So "you" can continue to live a life of selfishness, of "I and you", of "mine and yours". For in truth the Choice is yours, not God's.
07. What Is The "True Joke & Punchline" of Our Life?
Question asked of Muhammad Razzaq (Ral.) by Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.)
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. Either in falsehood "you" mistakenly "Think you are God", Or in truth, "You are God", that is, Either in falsehood you continue to "think you can pray to God", and you continue to "think you can do the duty of God", that is, you continue to "think you can do what Only God Can Do, like Pray to God, and Do God's Duty", Or in truth, with "You" as "One with" God", in truth "You are Prayer", in truth "You are Salat", in truth "You are Zikr", in truth "You are the Duty that is Greater Than God".
Bawa. That is, Either in your ignorance, and Now in your in your arrogance about your ignorance, "you" continue to think and act like "you" are God, continue to think and act like you can do what Only God can do, like Pray to God, and do the Duty of God, and have the Qualities and Actions of God.
Bawa. Or "You" find and understand a True Human Being, that is, "You" learn How Not To Be There, as "separate from", So God Can Be There, as "One with", "You" learn How To Make "you" into God's Problem, not "your" problem, that is, "You" learn How To Get God to "Cure Himself of you", but this time within you, to "Cure Himself" of "you" living an illusory life of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of yourself, as if you are "separate from" God within you, as if you are "separate from" your brothers and sisters, and as if you are "separate from" all of the Creation of God, within God within you, all of which is "Just Not True".
Initial Review:
Bawa. That is, "You" find and understand a True Human Being to truly realize, understand, accept, and join with the truth, without the slightest doubt, that in truth "Man is God in the forgetting of himself", a joke and a punchline that "You" must truly Start to understand if "You" are ever to truly find peace in "Your" life, for if not, then truly "The joke is on you", but this time for eternity (Sharing with Muhammad Razzaq)
08. Who Prays To God, And Who Does God's Duty?
Question asked of Abdul Bajir (Ral.) by Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.)
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. Either "you" as an "associate of God", that is, "you" believing that somehow "you" are God's helper, that "you" are God's intermediary, Or Muhammad (Sal.) as the Abduhu or Slave of God, as the Rasuluh or Messenger of God, that is, Muhammad (Sal.) as the "Beauty of God", and Muhammad (Sal.) as the "Qualities of God"
Initial Review:
Bawa. For in truth, as "We" taught My Children the following on May 21, 1978, which is a Short Discourse which is Now published as part of the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship Calendar for the year 2001, on the back of the Front Cover,
"It is God's Beauty within you that worships God within you, and it is God's Qualities within you
that performs God's duty from within you, and it is God's Modesty within you that overcomes the fascination of torpor within you, and it is God's Peace of Mind within you that overcomes the illusion or maya within you, and it is God's Remembrance of God within you, God's Remembrance to Pray to God within you, that allows you to lose the swing of happiness and sadness within you, that is, that allows you to overcome "the drama" of "I and you", of "mine and yours" in your life."
Bawa. And in truth, as "We" taught My Children when "We" were living in the world, in "The Second Kalimah (The Islamic Testimony of Faith), "Wahdahu la sharik lahu", that is, "God is One without associates to Him".
"Bear witness of both the Truth of God and of the falsehood of "the satan", and then to reject the falsehood of "the satan", that is, and reject all "associates of God", including "yourself" as "separate from" God, that is, including rejecting "yourself" as One who can pray to God, or as One who can do the duty of God, as "separate from" God All of which in truth is to testify to the Straight Path of God, the "Way of the Lord", a Path that in truth, "Only God Can Walk", not "you" as "separate from" God.
Bawa. That is, to say, with each breath, with each look, with each word, with each taste, with each thought, before you "Say or Do or Write" anything, as this child has Now learned to do,
"I testify that there is Nothing Other Than God, Only God Exists, You are Allah. And I testify that God is One without associates to Him. And I testify that Muhammad (Sal.) is His Only Servant or Slave and His Only Messenger, that is, I testify that Muhammad (Sal.) is His Only 'abduhu wa-rasuluh".

09. What Allows "Us" To Escape From "Our" Jail?
Question asked of Malik (Ral.) by Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.)
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. Either "you" translating, publishing, giving, and reading books about Bawa,
Or "You" becoming Bawa [Sharing with Malik]
Initial Review:

10. What Breaks The Relationship Between "Us" And God? - and
"if we are not very careful", between "us" and "our children"
Question asked of Muhammad Abdul Qadir (Ral.) by Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. What Breaks The Relationship Is Either the influence of the world on "you", and then on "your" children, Or is "your hypocrisy", that is, is you talking about God and "goodness", but you loving and trusting in the world, that is, is "you" licking hell, is "your" failure to Again become Flexible when what "you" have given birth to has Now
become Ridged.
Initial Review:
Bawa. For in truth as "We" taught My Children the following when "We" were living in the world,
"When a tree is lgrowing it is very flexible and can bend, like when a child is young and is growing up. At this time the parent can be rigid and inflexible and the child will bend to the will of the parent, and the relationship between the child
"But as the child gets older, like the tree that getting older loses its flexibility, its ability to bend, So too as the child starts to grow up he loses his earlier flexibility, his earlier ability to bend to the will of the parent, and if the parent stays rigid at this time, while the child starts to become rigid, then the relationship between the child and the parent can break, if you are not careful, and switch roles, that is, with you becoming the child, the flexible child, making the child Now the parent,
"In the same way, the relationship between you and God broke when you "Came into this earth world, Forgot God, and fell into many a trap, that is, when you no longer knew To Seek Yourself Within Yourself, Although God Exists Within You".
Bawa. That is, when you established "your presence" as "separate from" God's Presence,
and "your intention" as "separate from" God's Intention, and "your story" as "separate from" God's Story, A Story that in truth you came to this earth world to tell, that is, to join as "One with" the Creation of God, and with God within His Creation, to tell, if you like, for the Choice to Either tell God's Story, Or not, is most certainly your Choice, not God's.
Bawa. So Now you must Again become the child, the flexible child, but this time the "Child of God", and Let God Raise You, bending to His Will, and let what you have raised, which is "the satan", which is the "child of darkness", become the parent, the rigid parent, the rigid parent of all of the lives of darkness and evil that have Now grown within you, a rigid parent and his children that God must Now control, correct, and bring back into Himself, offering them Judgment and Salvation, if they like, before you die to the flesh, but either way, removing them from within you before eternity, as God has Now removed them from this child [Sharing with Muhammad Abdul Qadir (Ral.)]
11. What Is The Requirement To "Start" To Pray? - and To "Start"
To Do Duty?
Question asked of Muhammad Yasin & Topi (Ral.) by Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. Either "you" as "separate from" God starting to pray to God, starting to do duty to God,
Or "You" becoming "One with" God to "Start" To Pray, to "Start" To Do Duty to God.
Bawa. That is, Either "you" learning to do the Zikr properly, the Islamic "Remembrance of God", or "you" learning to do Salat properly, the Islamic 5 times of prayer, that is, "you" learning to breathe properly, by "you" learning to perform the 5 times of prayer properly, and by "you" learning to develop the qualities of God.
Bawa. Or by "You" becoming "One with" God in order to Start To Pray, by "You" becoming "One with" God in order to Start To Do Duty, that is, by "Us" learning to properly use what God has Now Give His Children in this age to "Pray To Him" and to
"Do His Duty" in this age.
Initial Review:
Bawa. That is, by "You" using the correct Point, or Focus, or Connection to God that God has Now given to His Children for this age and for your life, which within you is "Your" dearest loving Father, Bawa, or Bawa Muhaiyaddeen, or Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us), and Now On The "outside" of you, is Now "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother, Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us), in whom "We are well pleased" (Sharing with Muhammad Yasin & Topi)
12. How Do "We" Do The Perfect Prayer?
Question asked by Constance (Ral.) at Sunday Meeting
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. Either through "your effort", Or through "Your" faith and trust in God, and only in God, and "Your" surrendering all responsibility for Prayer, and for Everything to God, and to God alone.
Bawa. Either by "you" learning more and more about praying the "Perfect Prayer", Or by "You" getting God to pray to God, but this time within you [Sharing with Constance (Ral.)]
Initial Review:
- In process. Please come back later. Thank you -
13. Why Do The Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) Die?
Question asked by Assia (Ral.) at Sunday Meeting
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. Either because of accidents, or illnesses, or "your time is up", Or because
God/Bawa moving forward the life of the "One True Child of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen
(Ral.) hidden within each of My Children, like the apple tree and fruits hidden within
the apple seed, just waiting to appear.
Initial Review:
Bawa. For as "We" taught My Children the following when "We" were still living in the world,
"God takes each life at the Perfect Moment for each life"
Bawa. That is, Either because of accidents or illness or "our time" is up, Or for the
same reason that Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us)
died, and why each of "us" will also die, when it is the "Perfect Moment" for "us" to
die, that is, to "Move Forward" what God is Now doing within "Us" All, which is to
bringing to maturity the "One True Child of God" within "Us" all, for the benefit of all of
the Creation of God, within God within "Us", and for a little while on the "outside" of
"you", for the benefit of "Our" brothers and sisters, as this child has Now learned to do.
[Planned Sharing with Assia (Ral.), Howard Posner's daughter, who asked the
question in a meeting, "Why did Howard die?", if you like]
14. What Will Cause "Our Soul" To Rise?
Question asked of Abdul Jabbar (Ral.) by Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.)
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. Either "you" using the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship as "your ingredients" to make "Spiritual Bread", Or "You" letting Bawa use "You" as "His Ingredients" to make "God's Bread", for in truth, Only Then will your soul "Rise". [Sharing with Abdul Jabbar (Ral.)]

15-a. What Causes "Your Life" To Truly Move Forward?
Question asked by Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) for all of My Children
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. Your Life Truly Moves Forward Either because "you" continuing to sit in "your presence", hearing or reading "Bawa's words", Or because "You" learn How To Sit In "God's Presence" and hear "God Speak" directly to Everything within God within you, in order for "You" to become the "Presence and Word" of God, that is, in order for "You" to become the "Word of God made flesh", for your age and for all life.
Bawa. That is, Either because of "your" effort, like "you" raising a family, "you" publishing books, "you" reading the discourses of Bawa, "you" conducting meetings, "you" celebrating worldly events like the anniversary of Bawa's coming to America, and Bawa's passing from this earthly experience, "you" visiting or praying or doing duty at the Mosque or Mazar of Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), or "you" visiting or doing duty at the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship, and "your" understanding of the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.),
Bawa. Or because "You" sit in the "Presence of God" for your age and for your life, hearing the "Word of God" come directly from God for our age and for our life, that is, "You" sitting in the "Presence" of the "Word of God made flesh" for our age and for all life, all of which in truth is Now Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, in whom "We are well Pleased". Amen. Ok?
Initial Review:
Bawa. That is, with "You" Allowing God to "Cure Himself of you", allowing God to cure Himself of everything within you separating God from God within you, which in truth is Now Everything within you, that is, within "your" dark "room" or heart or mind, and Everything on the illusory "outside" of "you", that is, Everything that Now makes up "your" current life of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of you.
Bawa. All of which in truth is Now "you" living as the "Enemy of the soul", is Now "you" living as an "associate of God", when in truth "God is One without any Associates to Him", that is, is Now "you" living a life of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of "you" as if "you" are "separate from" God within you, as if "you" are "separate from" each other, and as if "youe" are "separate from" the Creation of God, within God within you, all of which in truth is "Just Not True".
Bawa. Such is the Enormity of the Problem Now called "you". A Problem that Only God Can Solve, if you will Only Let Him, if you will Only Let Him do this "Hearts Work" within you, if you will Only Join Him, as "One with" Him in this "Grand Endeavor", First on the "outside" of you and then within you, in this "Grand Endeavor" of God becoming God Again, but this time within you.
Bawa. That is, if you will Only Use what God has Now Given "You" to do this "Hearts Work", in your lifetime, while you still can, if you like, which in truth is Now Using Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, for in truth the Choice is truly yours, not God's, that is, to use your life in this way, or not, that is, to Now build your life around Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), or not. So God can then do Everything Else to truly make your life successful in your lifetime. Please try. Amen. Ok?
Expanded Review: - "Three Great Bawa Stories"
Bawa. Next is One of the "Three Great Bawa Stories" included in this "First Version" of this Document, that is,
1) "The Michael Toomey Story"
2) "Why Does An Apple Seed Germinate?"
3) "What Has "Incredible Movement So It Can Stand "Perfectly Still"?"
Bawa. "The Michael Toomey Story" is next, As Question 15-b, as the "Expanded Review" of Question 15-a, and the Last Two follow "The Michael Toomey Story" as Questions 16 and 17, if you like.
15- b. "The Michael Toomey Story" - (The "Expanded Review" of Question 15-a)
"The Michael Toomey Story"
(A story told by Michael Toomey)
Bawa. Michael Toomey [Abdul Jabbar (Ral.)] told us a wonderful story, that one day Bawa gave His Children a beautiful discourse in the morning which Micharl was moved to tape record and transcribe and then to hand out to all of the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.). After transcribing the discourse Michael was ready to make copies of it and hand it out when in the afternoon Bawa started to give His Children another discourse, So before making copies of the morning discourse by Bawa, and handing it out, Michael went with everyone else to Bawa's room to listen to the afternoon discourse.
Bawa. At some point during Bawa's afternoon discourse Michael was so excited about the morning discourse that he had transcribed that he got up and started to quietly leave the room with the intention of making copies of the morning discourse and handing it out when Bawa finished the afternoon discourse.
Bawa. And of course Bawa saw Michael leaving the room, and stopped him, and asked him why he was leaving, even though you could hear Bawa's discourse throughout the house, not just in Bawa's room.
Bawa. So Michael explained to Bawa what he was doing, and that he was leaving the room to make copies of Bawa's morning discourse with the intention of handing it out to everyone. And Bawa immediately said to him,
"That will do nobody any good."
Bawa. Of course everyone, including Michael was confused with Bawa's comment
because this was a copy of Bawa's discourse from this morning, and why would a copy of that discourse "Do nobody any good".
Bawa. Bawa then told Michael to sit back down, and then Bawa gave His Children the following explanation about the True Value of the True Guru/Shaikh as the "Presence of God", and as the "Word of God" for your age and for your life, that is, as the "Rain of God's Grace" that you must take "As It Is Raining", that is, as the True Guru/Shaikh is Speaking, not try and take it later in some other format, like as book, or as an audio tape, that is, after the "Rain Has Stopped", not later after theTrue Guru/Shaikh has "Stopped Speaking", and is No Longer "Physically Present", mistakenly thinking that you can somehow still receive its True Value by reading about what the True Guru/Shaikh said from a book, or by listening to what the True Guru/Shaikh said as a tape recording of the True Guru/Shaikh's Words, all of which is "Just Not True".
"The End"
of "The Michael Toomey Story"
(A story told by Michael Toomey)
Bawa. And in this way, with Bawa and Now with Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) explaining in a most beautiful way the Answer to the Question asked above, that is,
"What Causes "Your Life" To Truly Move Forward?"
Bawa. So here is what "We" told My Children at that time, that is, when "We" were living in the world as Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), and here is what "We" are Now telling My Children with "Us" Now living in the world as Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), if you like, for in truth Now "We are One". Amem
Bawa. When it rains it isn't just the water that is of value to the plants and trees, in truth the greatest value of the "rain water" is not the water but rather it is the magnetic or electrical energy within the water, an energy that the water only contains as the rain water falls from the sky.
Bawa. This is what makes the plants and trees grow, this magnetic or electrical energy within the "rain water" that gives the plants and trees the necessary energy to pull what they need both from the earth and from the sky, in order to properly grow and come to maturity and bear seeds and fruits. This is why the trees and plants grow, and move forward in their lives, because of this magnetice or electrical energy that comes to them as part of the "rain water", as it is falling from the sky, not just the water.
Bawa. Now if you collect this same "rain water" in a barrel with the intention of storing the "rain water", so you can pour the "rain water" on the plants later, that is, after it has stopped raining, then all of that magnetic or electrical energy that was in the "rain water" before, while it was raining, and which made it so valuable, is Now lost, that is, is not in the Now "barrel water", and as a result, the Now "barrel water" will not benefit the plants and trees when it is poured on them, that is, in the same way that the "rain water" did when it was falling from the sky.
Bawa. In this way, the true value of the "rain water" is Only when it is falling, not afterwards when it is stored, only then, when the "rain water" is falling from the sky is this magnetic or electrical energy in the "rain water", a magnetic or electrical energy that allows the plants and trees to grow, that is, to move forward in their lifetime, all of which is only available in the "rain water" when it is raining, that is, when the rain is actually falling from the sky, not afterwards, like when you store that same "rain water" in a '"rain barrel", truly changing it into "barrel water.
Bawa. In the same way, the "Words of God" for your age and for your life are only truly valuable to you, and to any of My Children, when they are being Spoken Directly By God, which in truth is Now the True Physical Guru/Shaikh for your age and for all life, only then can these "Words of God" truly move your life forward on the "Path of God", that is, when you sit at the "Feet of God" for your age and for your life, accepting this True 'Feet of God" for your age and for your life, as Now the "Presence of God", and the "Word of God" made flesh for your age and for your life. Amen.
Bawa. Only then, when the "Words of God" are actually being "Spoken By God" to His Children, are "These Words of God" truly valuable to you, and to any of My Children, that is, only when these "Words of God" come directly to you from God as the "Rain of God's Grace", as the "Words of the True Guru/Shaikh", are they truly valuable to you, not afterwards when you have stored them in some medium for future use, that is, as separate from the "Physical Presence" and "Physical Speeking" of the True Guru/Shaikh for your age and for your life.
Bawa. That is, not afterwards when you have stored these "Very Same Words" in some "word barrel", like in a book, or as a vidio or audio tape recording, or in any other form of "word barrel", like on a computer, or on the internet, or in "your memory", or in "your mind and desire", or in your intellect, that is, as something new that you Now know, as something new that Now defines you as "a person", as something new that you can Now talk about and share with other "like minded people", that is, as something new for your "false fellowship".
Bawa. Such is the true value of a True Guru/Shaikh, which is the "Presence of God", and the "Word of God" made flesh, Now for your age and for your life, not "your presence" and not "your words", all of which is How you truly move your life forward on the "Path of God", if you like, that is, by you becoming the "Presence of God", and the "Word of God" made flesh Now for your age and for all life, not by you storing these "Words of the Guru/Shaikh" in some form of "word barrel", either on the "outside" of you or within you.
Bawa. For in truth Only Then Are My Presence & My Words Truly Valuable to My Children, by You Now Becoming Them, that is, by You Now Becoming "God's Presence" and by You Now Becoming "God's Words, Now for your age and for all life, all of which Starts, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, that is, by you Finding and then Letting the "Rain of God's Grace" which are the "Words of Your True Guru/Shaikh" rain down upon you, as such, as much as you can, as often as you can.
Bawa. And Now for your age and for your life, the One who has Now Become Them, the One who has Now Become the "Presence of God" and the "Word of God" made flesh for your age and for your life, the One who has Now Become your True Guru/Shaikh for your age and for all life, is Now Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother
Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), in whom "We are well Pleased", and then if you like, It Is You, It Is Each of My Children, if you like, that is, when You Truly Become Them, when You Truly Become "God's Presence" and "God's Words" for your age and for all life, that is, rather than just "talking about them", as My Children are Now mistakenly doing, but to your peril.
Bawa. And then, if you do Truly Become Then, if you do Truly Become the "Presence of God" and the "Word of God" Now for your age and for all life, to then "Rain God's Grace" upon all of the Creation of God, within God within you, awakening the Wisdom surrounding your soul, allowing your awakened wisdom to liberate your soul, from "your presence" and from "your words", that is, from you as "a person", from you as a "false fellowship", that is, from all that is Now defining you as "separate from", that is, from all that is Now defining you as if you are "separate from" God within you, as if you are "separate from" your brothers and sisters, and as if you are "separate from" the Creation of God, within God within you, all of which is "Just Not True". Amen.
Bawa. That is, the "Rain of God's Grace" awakening the Wisdom surrounding your soul, allowing the Wisdom surrounding your soul to do battle with the "Enemy of your soul", which in truth is Now "you, which in truth is Now "your current life" of "separation and differences", both within you as the "very real but false" inside of you, and on the "outside" of you as the dream, that is, as you Now living on the illusory "outside" of yourself, as if you are "separate from" God within you, as if you are "separate from" each other, and as if you are "separate from" the Creation of God within you, all of which is "Just Not True". Amen.
Bawa. That is, Such is the True Value of "The Physical Presence" of Your True Guru/Shaikh, and the "Physical Words" of Your True Guru/Shaikh, as Now the "Rain of God's Grace" for My Children, if you like, that is, allowing My Children to sit at the feet of your True Guru/Shaikh Now for your age and for your life, if you like.
Bawa. Who in truth is Now Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother
Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, as Now the "Presence of God", and as Now the "Word of God" for your age and for your life.
Bawa. And in this way, and only in this way, with My Children Now letting the "Word of God's Grace", which is the "Grace of Your Wisdom", which in truth is your True Physical Guru/Shaikh, wash across you, letting God speak directly to His Children and to His Creation.
Bawa. And in this way, and only in this way, letting God speak directly to His Children which in truth is to the wisdom surrounding your soul, as "One with", not to "you" as "a person" as "separate from", that is, to speak directly to Jesus (peace be upon Him), not to "you" as the Cross of Jesus (peace be upon Him), and the 5 nails that keep Him Crucified to His Cross, which in truth are "your desires" to live on the illusory "outside" of you and sin, that is, to continue living as "separate from" on the illusory "outside" of you.
Bawa. And then to speak directly to all of His Creation within God withiin His Children, if you like, in this way, letting God "Cure Himself of you", that is, to Cure Himself of "you" Now living as the "Form of the satan", and in this way, revealing the "Form of God", hidden within the "Form of the satan", in the same way that the apple tree and its fruits are hidden within the apple seed buried within the earth, just waiting for the apple seed to germinate, that is, to realize, understand, accept, and join as "One with" the Truth that Naturally Emerges from within it, when it is both ready to hear it, and ready to Either Accept Or Reject It.
Bawa. Such is Now the True Significance of Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) in the life of all of My Children, as Now the "Truth of You" emerging from within you, because Now you are ready to hear it, and Now you are ready to Either Accept Or Reject it.
Bawa. Because Now like the apple seed buried within the earth, Now you are ready to Germinate to the "Truth of You", or not, as Now the Final Gift of God for your age and for all life, as Now the Last Fire of God burning in the world, as Now the Judgment and Salvation of all of the Creation of God, within God within you, and for a little while on the "outside" of you, as Now the Judgment and Salvation of all of your brothers and sisters, as this child has Now learned to do. Amen. Ok?.
16. Why Does An Apple Seed Germinate?
Question asked of His Children by Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.)
Suggested Answer:
Bawa. The apple seed germinates Either because of the influence of the 5 elements, that is, because of the influence of earth, fire, water, air, and ether, as the world teaches you,
Or because of awareness, that is, because the apple seed becomes aware of its truth.
Bawa. That is, because the apple seed becomes aware of and accepts the truth that Naturally emerges from within the apple seed, that is, when it is ready to both hear it, and Either accept Or reject "its truth", as these words of "your truth" are Now Naturally emerging from within you, from the heart of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within each of My Children, to Now teach you about your truth, So you can Now "Do The Same", So you can Now Either accept Or reject "Your Truth".
Bawa. That is, the apple seed germinates because it realizes, understands, accepts, and becomes "One with" its truth, that is, with the truth that naturally emerges from within the apple seed when the apple seed is ready to hear it, that is, both ready to hear, and Either accept Or reject the truth about itself, about the truth that lies hidden within itself, which is the apple tree, about the truth of where it original came from, which is from within the mature fruit of that same apple tree.
Bawa. And the truth about why it came here, which is to make "The Choice of Its Life", that is, "The Choice" between its "Truth or Falsehood", that is, The Choice between its current "false and selfish life" buried within the earth, as "separate from" the earth, always protecting itself from being destroyed by the earth, and Its Next "True and Selfless Life", if it likes.
Initial Review:
Bawa. Because Like All People, Not All Apple Seeds Germinate to "Their Truth", and Open & Reveal Their Next Life, that is, by joining as "One with" the earth they are Now buried within, in order to die to their "current life" as an apple seed, in order to Open & Reveal Their Next Life, which is the Story of the apple tree and its fruits, that is, the Story of the "Oneness of Apple Tree & Its Fruits", a Story which they have come to the earth, to join with the earth, to tell, that is, to come to maturity within the earth Now as an apple tree for the benefit of the five elements, that is, within the earth, fire, water, air, and ether, and for the benefit of all of the Creation of God.
Bawa. And Now it is the same for each of My Children, to Now hear the truth about why you came here, which is to Now make "The Choice of Your Life", that is, "The Choice" between your "Truth or Falsehood", that is, The Choice between your current "false and selfish life" buried within the earth, as "separate from" the earth, always protecting yourself from being destroyed by the earth, and Your Next "True and Selfless Life", which is the Story of the "Tree of God" and its Fruits, also coming to maturity within the earth for the benefit of the five elements, that is, within the earth, fire, water, air, and ether, 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.
17. What Has "Incredible Movement" - So It Can Stand "Perfectly
Still"?
Question asked of His Children by Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.)
Suggested Answer:
- In process. Please come back later. Thank you -
Initial Review:
Bawa. For as "We" taught My Children the following when "We" were still living in the world as Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), and Now as "We" are Again Teaching My Children the same, Now living in the world as Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.).
Question By His Holiness To His Children:
"What has incredible movement So it can stand perfectly still?"
Children:
No answer.
His Holiness:
"A humming bird".
"A humming bird has incredible movement
So it can stand perfectly still and take the nectar from the flower.
And like that, God has incredible movement on the "outside"
so he can stand perfectly still on the "inside"
and take the 'Ilm or divine knowledge from His Creation".

"His Bag", twirling His Children with their faults and all, letting one
stone bang off the rough edges of another, letting one stone polish the
others, until "You" come out as the perfect, polished gems of God, which
Bawa then hands to God, to God within you, if you like, for the Choice is
yours, not God's, that is, the Choice to stay in the "Bag of the Qutb",
until "He Is Done", or not."

"Join As "One With" Us On The "Outside" of You
To Become "One With" Us Within You,
In Order To Truly Become "One With" God Within You,
In Order To
Truly Understand
"Who You Already Are",
And "Where You Already Are",
And "What Is Already Happening" In Your Life,
While You Still Can,
Before This Kind of Understanding
Is No Longer Available To You,
Because You Have Become
What God Has Discarded From Himself,
In Order To Become God Within You.
That Is,
To Truly Understand
"What Can Truly Return To God Within You",
Because It Is What Truly Came Here From God Within You,
And To Truly Understand
"What Cannot Return To God Within You",
Because It Is What Truly Grew Here,
As The Lives of Darkness and Evil Within You,
And Really Has No Interest In Returning To God Within You,
No Matter What It Might Tell You To The Contrary.
And To Truly Understand This Choice,
And What Will Help You Make The Correct Choice,
Which In Truth Is Only God Within You,
And For A Little While God On The "Outside" of You,
And What Won't Help You Make The Correct Choice,
Which Is Everything Else,
No Matter How It Is Currently Decorated
On the Illusory "Outside" of You,
And No Matter How it Currently Speaks To You
As Your Thoughts Disguised As Wisdom.
And Start To Understand Everything
From God's Perspective
As "One with" Everyone and Everything,
As God Witnessing God Tell And Bring To Completion
His Story Within Him
For the Benefit of all of the Creation of God Within Him,
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.
And Stop All of Your Current Activity
Of Trying To Understand Everything

As "Separate From" Everyone and Everything,
As "Your Story" On the "Outside" of You,
For Your Benefit,
Not For The Benefit of Anyone Or Anything Else
