It
is important to explicate here how the cosmos is formed and what is the role of
Time and Space in its control and administration.
Universe
has two aspects. If one is termed as the Internal Self then the other will have
to be termed as Personal Ego. Internal Self is the base line comprising huge
heavenly bodies and the smallest particle of the universe, id est, all the
lights which combinatively constitute the great and small heavenly bodies and
the other particles of the universe, are the parts of the Internal Self. If we
could see these lights they will appear in the form of the concept
(Imaginations). These very imaginations are handed down to the Personal Ego by
the Internal Self. Transference of imagination (concepts) depends upon the
Internal Self. Personal Ego is bound to accept the imaginations handed over to
it by the Internal Self. For instance, only those imaginations are conveyed to
the rose by the Internal Self which are exhibited in the form and figure of the
rose. Similarly, man receives only those concepts from the Internal Self which
are to be exhibited in the form and figure of a human being.
What
is the Structural Formation of man?
He
is a collection of those concepts which acquire the consciousness of the
Personal Ego in the Internal Self. Man’s Unconscious (the Internal
Self) constructs its own body. That which is ordinarily called Substance’
(matter) is the product of the machine of the Unconscious. Normally
it is considered that the diet taken from the out formulates blood and the flesh
of the body. It is altogether a wrong conjecture. In fact, Man’s
Unconscious (Internal Self) converts the concepts into matter by using the
light. Matter makes its existence known by taking the form of physical figure
and features and gravity. Death occurs when, due to any cause,
the Unconscious does not arrange to convert the concept into matter or
substance.
Man
in his lifetime usually suffers, sometimes more than once, from fetal and
protracted diseases and his diet is reduced to the minimum or is totally
forbidden but still he doesn’t die. One would eventually conclude that the
physical machine is not responsible for keeping the life functional. These
Observations also confirms that what the human body gets from without are not
the resources of life. The skill of the Unconscious is responsible for the life.
There
are many ways to understand the Internal Self. Characteristics
of the Internal Self are innumerable. Man after his birth and then
infancy, attains the age of sixty or sometimes even ninety. His body, his
thoughts, his knowledges and activities keep changing all time. Every bit and
part of his body, knowledge and thoughts changes but the person remains the
same person born some ninety or sixty years ago. If his name is Tom
he would always be addressed by the name of Tom and will be remembered as Tom.
What
is this Tom?
This
Tom is the Internal Self. All that changes is the Personal Ego. Internal Self
is encompassing the universe. The Knowledge of the universe is not
possessed by the Personal Ego because of its unconcernedness regarding the
internal Self. If all the interests of a person are limited to his family alone
his experiences and Observations will also be limited accordingly and his
thinking will remain confined to his family only. Or
so to say, he has confined his understanding within the perimeter of his family
so much so that he is unable to see beyond his family. Eyes
and ears of a person see and hear within the perimeter of the understanding of
that person. They simply fail to see or hear beyond the range of the person’s
perception. Apparently he enjoys well established contacts with the world
around but the understanding of such a person is not at all attracted by
anything out of his family unit. His conscious is just like that of a
few years old child who is at a loss to make anything out of the news broadcast
of the world. From the view point of spiritualism a man is considered to be only
few years old even if in his fifties his thinking is confined within the limit
of his family alone. Conscious of a person remains immature even in his hundredth year
if he only cares about his own individual interests. For
this reason he remains unaware about the Internal Self. He,
on the stage of universe, reminds us of a three year child present in an
international symposium. For the very reason religion is an integral part of the life, A
nation can neither observe the standards of the universe nor can its
understanding comprehend the sciences concerning the universe, if it does not
believe in sincerity for the universe. It has detached itself from the
Internal Self. This type of a nation would remain in infancy despite living for
many thousand years.
The
light which is felt by our eyes is a veil drawn between the Internal Self and
the Personal Ego. The concepts are conveyed to the Personal Ego from the Internal
Self through the very same light. In other words, informations given
to the Personal Ego by the Internal Self are carried over to the Personal Ego
by this light after giving them shape, color and dimension. Television
could be referred to as an example of it. All that is telecast from a television
station can be seen and heard or seen on the television screen but when the communication
is switched off nothing can be heard or seen on the screen. Similar
is the case of the information coming from the Internal Self. Individuals
of the mankind receive the informations through the light. Man’s
observations and the knowledge is in accordance with the informations received
by him. When the supply of the informations is disconnected for an
individual that person expires but this disconnection is form the Phenomenal
World only, that is, man is disconnected from one phase of life only, supply of
information remains intact from the second phase, known as the Unseen.
It
must be kept in mind that the light because of which our eyes observe also has
two planes. The senses of one plane have both the gravity and the dimensions
whereas the senses of the other plane have only dimensions. The
planes of the dimensions are found in the depths of this very light. The
informations supplied from the upper plane of light are seen and heard directly
but the informations dispatched from the lower plane of the light are observed by
something due to which the senses fail to grasp them completely. Actually,
the informations received from the upper plane becomes a hindrance for the
informations of the lower plane and a wall like obstruction is formed which is
so hard that our senses despite their best endeavors cannot permeate through it.
Informations
of the upper plane are also of two types.
1.
Informations
pertaining to the motives. We have partial and biased attitude
for such informations.
2.
Informations,
not associated with the individual interests.
These
attracts our impartial attitude.
If,
Keeping both the types of information in view, we deliberate, it would be
revealed that man enjoys two angles of perception. One,
which is limited with in individuality and the other, which is beyond the
limits of individuality. When we look in individuality the universe does not partake but
when we look out of individuality the universe partakes. The
angle in which the universe is present, we perceive ourselves along with all
the articles and objects of the universe. The process of this perception is
recurring. The same is called the World of Experiences. On
the one hand we are used to seeing the universe in our individuality and on the
other hand we see our individuality in the universe, that is, we represent the
individuality on one hand and the universe on the other. When
both these two representations collide we come up with a vindication to support
the representation of individuality. Supporters of this vindication
sometimes find it hard to avoid a clash with their opponents ensuring a conflict
of ideologies. Individuality could be pertaining to one person, a class or a
nation. The biggest of all the flaws of the angels of individuality is that
ultimately it renegades other objects of the universe except its own self.
Sight
is bound to commit a mistake in this angle, for instance, size of an object in
water appear to be different than that of the size of the same object in air. This
difference of sight is because of the spatio-temporal restrictions. Unless
the observer does not emancipate himself from Time and Space he cannot find the
reality of an object.
Qalandar Baba Auliay (R.A)
Alshaikh Khwaja
Shamsuddin Azeemi, Chief Editor of the monthly Roohani Digest, the renowned
spiritual scholar, founder of the chain of Muraqba Halls the world over has had
the honour of learning the spiritual sciences from his spiritual mentor, His
Divine Grace Qalander Baba Auliya, the sage of this age. In order to teach him
the spiritual sciences Qalander Baba Auliya made Alshaikh Azeemi to pen down
the words that he used to narrate. Alshaikh Azeemi being a devoted disciple not
only noted the contents but also did his best to understand what he was taught.
The eventual out come of his dedicated work took the form of the ‘Loh-o-Qalum’,
the first ever book that comprises the whole syllabus of the spiritual science.
Who else was more suitable to explain the contents of this document but
Alshaikh Azeemi, the very able student of Qalander Baba Auliya. Dissemination
of that knowledge, which is the legacy of prophets and had reached him in
disciplic succession, has become an obsession for Alshaikh Azeemi because, according
to him, this knowledge is the only elixir and the antidote for the ailing
humanity in present times.
