أَتَأْمُرُونَ
النَّاسَ بِالْبِرِّ وَتَنسَوْنَ أَنفُسَكُمْ وَأَنتُمْ تَتْلُونَ الْكِتَابَ ۚ
أَفَلَا تَعْقِلُونَ
Surah al Baqarah
[2:44]
They preach people and encourage
them to do good and they forget themselves. And you recite the book also, is
there no sense in you?
This fits perfectly on today’s
Ulema.
Here God is complaining that you
are teaching and preaching others to become good but you forget yourself. You
recite the Holy Book and scriptures but you seem to have no sense (Aqal) in
your head. There is a defect it’s not simply a case of hypocrisy, it’s not
simply a case of being practical or impractical. There is more to it. You
encourage others to become good but you don’t remind yourself the same. It’s
about some kind of defect and that defect is controlled by Shaitan.
When your Aqal is affected, when
the power of intellect is controlled by some alien power, then you don’t know
what you are doing. You don’t see your defects. You only see wrong in others
and this happens when you think very high of yourself. When you think you can
never make a mistake, then you will never have this thought in your head that
what you are reciting, you should also act upon it. You will tell people that according
to Quran, we should not backbite, we should not slander. But at the same time
you are doing the same, you are also involved in all the sins you are asking
people not to do.
وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا وَكَذَّبُوا بِآيَاتِنَا أُولَـٰئِكَ أَصْحَابُ
النَّارِ ۖ هُمْ فِيهَا خَالِدُونَ
Surah al Baqarah
[2:39]
People who have rejected my signs
and made a lie about it, they are the companions of hellfire. They will
eternally live there.
رَبَّنَا إِنَّكَ جَامِعُ النَّاسِ لِيَوْمٍ لَّا رَيْبَ فِيهِ ۚ إِنَّ
اللَّـهَ لَا يُخْلِفُ الْمِيعَادَ
Surah Aal-e-Imran
[3:9]
O’ our Lord, one day you will
gather all humanity and in this there is no doubt. Allah does not go against
his promise. [Refers to
Ummat-e-Wahida]
Nazar ul Bashar and Abdul Bashar
are two different types of obtaining enlightenment. To worship God is the only
apron of Spirituality and religiosity. Humanity was not aware of the other type
of method. People were not aware of Nazar ul Bashar because Nazar ul Bashar is
the method of rendering enlightenment to selected individuals and this method
was adopted by God alone. This is why no messenger and no prophet had to find a
Spiritual Guide.
HDE Gohar Shahi said in His book: Can anyone become a prophet by virtue of worship?
No messengers and no prophets had
to find a Spiritual Guide and they did not have a Spiritual Guide. Were they
already enlightened by birth? No, they were not. They were not enlightened when
they were born, then how did it happen? How did they become enlightened? How
did they have all this discerning and all this knowledge and this power of
distinction? People only know about revelation from God. They do not know how
does revelation of God come about and descend on that particular individual. Before
a potential prophet-to-be is able to receive a revelation from God, he has to
have an enlightened heart.
The problem with most people is
they do not stimulate their brain. They do not ponder. When they do not
understand anything, they say God will do it. If you ask a Muslim especially, most
of these Muslims will not want to hear what I am saying about a prophet or
messenger not being enlightened at the time of his birth. They derive the wrong
meaning from the sayings of the Prophet. When the Prophet said I had already
been a prophet even before my arrival in this world what do you think people
will understand? They will say when he was already a prophet then how come his
Nafs was not purified? This could be their argument. But then again Prophet
Mohammad himself said, ‘When a man is born a Satanic Jinn is born with him
also,’ and his companions asked him, ‘was that Satanic Jinn born with you too?’
Prophet Mohammad said, ‘Yes, but later he became enlightened in my company.’
Now, how does a prophet or a
messenger-to-be get enlightened and how does it happen? How his heart is revived
and how he obtains mortification of the Self and Ego when he apparently doesn’t
have a Spiritual Guide? He is not initiated by a man, then how all that process
of purgation, mortification and purification comes about?
These potential prophets and
messengers, and the process of enlightenment, is taken care of by God. But even
when God does it, there is a system. For example, God is the Provider (Raziq).
You believe that but then do you still work? God is the Provider but you still
work. Why do you have to work when God is the Provider? You have no answer.
Similarly, God enlightens the prophets and the messengers and he uses his assistant
Gabriel. Gabriel appears before the potential prophet and messenger. What does
he do? Now, there is no doubt that Prophet Mohammad had already been a prophet
before he came here. But when he came into this world, Quran said for the first
time Gabriel appeared before him, he said:
اقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ
Surah al Alaq [96:1]
Prophet Mohammad said, ‘انا
لىس بقارئ’ and he said it three times. Then Gabriel held him against his
chest and squeezed him very tight and God’s name was transferred from his chest
into the heart of Prophet Mohammad. This was the process of enlightenment.
Individuals may argue with me and
say Prophet Mohammad had already been pure and he was already a prophet even
before he came here and he doesn’t need more purification. Then I say to them,
before Prophet Mohammad came into this world, wherever was he? Was he living in
his body? It was just his soul. The rank of Prophet-hood and Messenger-hood was
rewarded to his soul and then finally the soul was sent into this world and the
body was created. The body and other Lataif (subtleties of the breast) needed
to be activated because when the soul was there, the soul was not accompanied
by the Lataif. The only time when Lataif are accompanied by the soul and Nafs
is the time when you are in your body and you are on earth.
Before your birth, your reality
is confined to the being of your soul. That’s all you are. When you are born
into this world it doesn’t matter who you are, you may be common man or you may
be Moses. It doesn’t matter. For example both a common man and Moses fall into
a ditch and it is muddy, do you think the prophet will not get dirty only the
common man will? The body can never be completely pure because there is no messenger, no
prophet who came into this world and didn’t have to go to the toilet. This is
based on reality.
This world, the Realm of Nasout,
was designed to favour inhabitancy of Jinnat and this is why everything that we
have in the Realm of Nasout is composed of Naar (Evil Energy). When you are
breathing in air you are breathing in Naar. When you are eating food you are
consuming Naar. The system in this Realm of Nasout runs off Naar. The word
‘Nasout’ is a Suryani word and Nasout means to breathe. When we go to Realm of Malakout
we don’t breathe. Being a composite in a body, living in a body is not any way
lesser in degree than living in hell. When your inner eye is open most of the
time you peep into your body and see there is bag in your body that has 10kg of
shit. Then you have blood and blood is dirtier than shit. Then do you know how
meat is formed? You churn milk and keep churning it and when it’s churned well
the layers of milk start making threads and those tiny threads form a stream of
heavy threads. Similarly the movement of blood in our body is like the blood is
churned and the formation of lean muscles comes from the churning of the blood
and this churning of the blood turns into threading of meat and then layers of
those meaty threads piled upon becomes a muscle.
In the Spiritual World it is said
that at least once a week you should travel inside yourself. In order to purify
your body you meditate and one of your own Jussas (souls) that have gone out of
your body and are purified, you ask them to enter your blood stream and go in
every nook and cranny of your body and wherever they find any obstacle or any
clots, not the usual clots where a drop of blood becomes thick and forms a
stone, but another clot. Some clots are formed with blood and Naar and they are
like bubbles in blood. Whenever you have those bubbles of Naar in your body you
will feel that area is warm. This body is all impurity. You have to watch over
the percentage of purity of your body every day. When you shit you don’t want
to see it but before you see it, it was part of your body. You can understand
how pure you are. Do you think you will see God with this body? Do you think
God will accept the worship of this body? God is pure light. God is a composite
of pure Noor. You will only develop acquaintance with God when you awaken
something which has no composite of Naar; something which can become 100% pure
and that can be your soul not your body. God doesn’t even want to look at your
body. Hadith:
... إنَّ الله لا ينْظُرُ إِلى
أجْسَامِكُمْ ، ولا إِلى صُوَرِكمْ ، وَلَكن ينْظُرُ إلى قُلُوبِكمْ
[Muslim]
He doesn’t want to look at your
body nor any deeds done by the body.
When you go into a mosque and you
offer Salat God is upset. Why? Your heart is Jahil, dark. There is no Noor in
your heart and you are standing there and Naar is released from your body. That
is why God said in Quran, from you, Shar (mischief) rises to me and from me Khair
(mercy) descends on you. This is why Mohammad said, ‘La
Salat Illa bil Hazoori-e-Qalb.’ Without the presence of the heart in that
Salat, your Salat is just a form of physical activity/exercise. You are
releasing Naar only. If you are saying:
(٤) وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ كُفُوًا أَحَدٌ (٣) لَمْ يَلِدْ
وَلَمْ يُولَدْ (٢) اللَّهُ
الصَّمَدُ (١) قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ
Surah al Ikhlaas
[112:1-4]
Do you think when you read this
you generate any Noor?
HDE Gohar Shahi: The ayah of Quran like you have now have no Noor but there is a system in which you recite the ayah a specific number of times and then Noor is generated.
For example recite Surah al Muzzammil
eleven times and then you generate Noor from this Surah. One time reading it
doesn’t do any good. So when you are standing in Salat and saying ‘Allahu Akbar,’
do you think you are generating Noor? But if the door of your heart is open and
Gods name is already pounding in your heart then recitation of Quran from your
mouth will mingle with the repetition of God’s name inside your heart then it
will generate Noor. Without the presence of the heart you are just standing in
Salat and recitation of Quran by your mouth does not produce Noor, only mischief
rises from your side no matter how many times you recite the Quran. Without the
given method by God you do not make any Noor. This is why people recite Quran
every day and they have no Noor in them. This is why people offer Salat everyday
but their Salat does not stop them from bad deeds. The Quran says:
إِنَّ الصَّلَاةَ تَنْهَى عَنِ الْفَحْشَاء وَالْمُنكَرِ
Surah al Ankaboot
[29:45]
Salat will stop you from bad
deeds, from indecent acts and prohibited deeds
But you see people in Pakistan
have a turban on their head and a beard on their faces, they are Musaleen (offer
prayers regularly) and they are breaking into banks, looting and plundering and
involved in adultery and all major sins. Why their Salat is not stopping them
from committance of bad deeds? Where is their Salat? Do you think the Quran is
lying? It’s God’s word. The Quran, Bible, Torah and Talmud cannot be wrong.
There is something wrong with your Salat. God is right when God said you are
reading Quran and telling other to do good, but you forget that you also should
do the same. You are reciting the Quran, is there no intellect in your head?
If you are ill you go to the
doctor and if the medicine doesn’t work you complain. The Quran said Salat will
stop you from prohibited deeds and indecent acts and you become a regular Musalee
and go to the mosque five times a day and you have been doing it for many years
and you are doing everything you used to do before you became a Musalee. It’s
just a mind over the matter. I’m doing something not producing results what
should I do now? If my Salat is not stopping me from bad deeds who should I
complain to? You don’t even think this divine method of Salat is not working on
you. You don’t think God is right to say you have no sense in your head and
still you don’t care you don’t think about it. You don’t have this thought in
your head, 'Why am I still doing the same shit that I used to do before I was a
Musalee?' It’s very easy to understand! You are diseased, you saw a doctor he
prescribed a medicine and you take that medicine and you keep taking it. You
finish the course. It’s not possible you start a course of antibiotics, finish
it, and the disease is still there. Antibiotics are not good for your health, but
then again when you finish the course and still you are not well, you would be
really worried and you would see the doctor again and say, 'What’s wrong? What
should I do? Am I dying?' You are very conscious about your health by you are
not conscious about your Emaan (faith) and life hereafter. The ritual
of reciting the Quran, Bible, Torah and Talmud and by going to the temple and
church and mosque you think this is a burden on you, and you just want to run
from the mosque and the churches. If you tell them 'Your Salat is defected,' they don’t
want to correct it. You are in the mosque because if you don’t do it you think
you are going to enter hellfire. You close your eyes and think the lion has disappeared
but that is not the case.
People in this day and age are
health conscious they are not God-conscious or spiritual health conscious. They
think this life is the only form of life. Loot plunder do anything you want to
do and even then you are a Saint of God. This is the case with everybody.
The ones who live here in the
west they have no fear they don’t have this instilled in their brain that this
is a sin so they are doing it. You can trust them they are not doing anything
bad in the toilet except shitting. When it comes to Pakistani boys and girls
they want to be like Mariam and Bibi Fatima; behind your eyes, they are Monica
Lewinsky. You see his sin and his sin but you do not see your sins and this is
the meaning of this verse. You tell humanity do good but you do not tell
yourself do good. So this body is impure.
Now, can a prophet be born
without a Latifa-e-Nafs? Why? If you don’t have Latifa-e-Nafs what will happen?
Some spiritual people who do not have either this spiritual knowledge or a
mighty Spiritual Guide so they kill their Nafs and their Nafs die, but they
still live.
HDE Gohar Shahi: Kill your Nafs if you cannot purify it
So tell me is it possible that
you have a body but you don’t have a Latifa-e-Nafs in it? Can a body survive
without the Latifa-e-Nafs? What will be the impact? HDE Gohar Shahi says to
purify the Nafs. Now, Prophet Mohammad is the beloved of God. Evil is exempted
from Prophet Mohammad and Nafs is an evil soul. But why is it important to have
a Latifa-e-Nafs? In the physical world, if Prophet Mohammad did not have
Latifa-e-Nafs, he would not eat anything. He would not marry any woman; he
would not look at any woman. He would not want to taste anything and he would
not want to preach anybody. Why? You have this inclination of meeting people
because you have a Latifa-e-Nafs in you; the Nafs has the inclination of
meeting people. Why did Christian hermits seclude themselves and enjoy a spiritual
life? They killed their Latifa-e-Nafs and when the Latifa-e-Nafs is killed, then
you want to sit alone. You don’t want to eat anything you don’t want to meet any
woman. You just want to live alone. No food, nothing. But in order to survive
you will eat anything. So, if Prophet Mohammad was not given a Latifa-e-Nafs
then Prophet Mohammad would not enjoy eating in this world, he would not want
to meet anybody. He would spend all his time in seclusion and he would become a
recluse. Because of Latifa-e-Nafs, you want to see people, you want to eat good
food and put on good clothes. Now if the Latifa-e-Nafs is impure, you want to obtain
all these things the bad way and when it is purified you want these things the
good way. That is the difference. Therefore Prophet Mohammad was also given a Latifa-e-Nafs
and Latifa-e-Nafs is given to all whoever they are. Prophet Mohammad was a
Prophet even before he came here but before he came here wherever he was this
body was not accompanied. Lataif were not accompanied, there was no Latifa-e-Nafs
and when he came into this world, the Nafs and Lataif were inserted.
Coming into this world is like
falling into a ditch. You need to take a shower. You are pure but you fell into
a ditch so now you need to clean yourself. But if God says to you I push you
into a ditch but when you get dirty I will give you a shower don’t worry. This is
what happens when a prophet is born. By being born in this world all the dirt
he accumulated, God takes care of it through the method of Nazar ul Bashar. When
a common man is born he falls into a ditch and he is there forever, unless
somebody comes and says you are in the ditch. When a common person is born he
is in a ditch of dirt and sins and he is doing everything. Then we have Murshid-e-Kamil
(Perfect Spiritual Guide) and he says, 'Come purify yourself, come out from that
ditch.' Some people try to come out from the ditch and they succeed and some
don’t want to come out. They say it’s very difficult, ‘I can’t do it.’ If you
are a common man or Saint of God being born into this world is like being born
into dirt. You need to take a shower because you are not a prophet or messenger.
There is no divine facility of a shower. Don’t take it for granted that as soon
as you come out of the ditch there will be a shower from God.
People do not know that they are living
in the world and it’s like living in the dirt. They need to come out of the
dirt. First of all they need to understand that when they come out they need to take
a shower. If you have taken a shower you are pure and in the Quran a pure one
is a Mutaqee. For a common man, there are so many problems. The common man is
like a frog of the well. The frog is in the well and he thinks, 'This is my world
and there is nothing outside this well. This is the entire world.' In a similar
way when a common man is in the ditch, in this world, he thinks, 'This is the
world. This is life: you go to a college, get a degree, find a job, get married,
have children, raise them, get old and die. That’s it.'
Then comes a Saint of God and
they tell you, what are you doing this world is very temporal when you die you
will travel into the world of eternity. If you do good here that eternity will
be good for you forever and vice versa. Some people understand it and Spiritual
Guides tell you how to take a shower. In a normal shower there is a big mouth
of the shower and water comes down in abundance but when the Spiritual Guide
tells you how to take a shower, you spend 12 years in trying to reach your
heart and when finally your heart is initiated, Noor is generated and produced
drop by drop in your heart. Just imagine if you were to receive one drop of
water after a minute how would you take a shower? This is if you are a
Dhakir-e-Qalbi. If you were to take a shower and only one drop of water was to
come after one minute, it’s so frustrating. When you become a Dhakir-e-Qalbi,
Noor comes to you in small droplets. This is why the Nafs requires 12 years for
purification. This is why Spirituality is very difficult.
But glad-tidings for the people of this era because Imam Mehdi is here, we do not need an individual shower and you do not have to look for a shower! Forget about droplets of Noor. The shower that showered purity on the prophets and messengers was a single-wired shower. Now Imam Mehdi Gohar Shahi has introduced a shower that has seven water-pipes, a pressure shower. This is even better than Nazar ul Bashar. But this seven-piped shower is not for everybody, it is for those who want it.
How clean
you are after a shower depends not on you but on the quality of the shower. It
doesn’t depend on how efficiently you are using the shower it depends on how
good the shower is. How clean you are, is not because you worshiped really
hard, it depends on how beautifully efficient and how good the shower is. His
Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi has elevated all faculties to its culmination. To
even call this method dispensed by HDE Gohar Shahi Nazar ul Bashar is a great
disrespect. Where there was one pipe now there are seven and this is the
Spiritual Grace of HDE Imam Mehdi, Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi.
Jesus Christ didn’t like anything. He didn’t like to see women he didn’t like to
spend time with people, he didn’t have any comforts of life he didn’t like any
luxury of life. He had the expertise of austerity (Zohad-e-Kamil). When he was
born, if Jesus had Latifa-e-Nafs in his body, then his statement of being a
prophet in infancy did not have any authority. If Jesus had Latifa-e-Nafs in
his body then what he said while he was still an infant would be subject to
doubt. In the presence of Latifa-e-Nafs how do we believe he is right? There
was a Latifa-e-Nafs for him but not in the body.
It is not possible for somebody
who has come from Alam-e-Ghaib (Unseen World) to allow Latifa-e-Nafs in the body where there
is Rouh Allah. Therefore the Latifa-e-Nafs of HDE Gohar Shahi has always been
outside HDE’s body. Most of the time people met with Latifa-e-Nafs of HDE.
