How
strange it is that the Quran accepts our sovereignty and command of the
universe and opens for us the doors of sovereignty and command, and yet we
think the Quran is but an auspicious book we have decorated on the bookshelf.
When we fall into misery then we recite the verses of the Quran and pray to get
rid of worldly misery. Yet we do not even consider thinking so deeply about the
Quran that becomes a habit so that as a result when we undertake an action then
ruling the whole universe would be assured. It is deplorable that neglect all
these treasures and are in need of others.
KHWAJA SHAMS-UD-DEEN AZEEMI
What is the universe? It is a point, and this point is a
divine light, and the divine light is itself a light.
Every point is the imprint of luminescence (Tajalli). When
this imprint transforms itself into the divine light then it becomes Aura
(Jism-e-Misali). The display of the Aura is the physical body.
The physical body is built up as a structure of bones, flesh,
and muscle. The skin is a kind of plaster and color on this building. The life
of the human being who is made up of veins, arteries, nerves, bones, and flesh,
is nothing except senses.
