This
world is a magical place. It is not easy for wisdom to understand this magic,
for wisdom does calculations of minor things. If you think deeply you will see
that the whole world is a toy made of sand whose fate is eventually to break
down and disperse in parts. The reality of the limited life is like a sip of
wine. If you have it, it is well and good, but if you don't have it, then it
doesn't make any difference. I want that wine one sip of which frees me from
the limitations of time and space.
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.
