Oh,
human being! Tear away the blinders that hinder your memory screen and peer
inside. Do you not remember those pleasant days when you used to breathe the
air of freedom (Heaven)? There was neither pangs of hunger nor thirst, nor did
the hot sunshine trouble you. There were no fears or problems. The only sadness
is that you are unaware of these things. You used to eat happily anywhere you
wished. Time and space had no meaning for you. You flew like a happy bird in
the space less world that was the topic of discussion among the angels.
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.
