All Shall Perish..

 

I know..

One day “I” will not be, yet I shall be. I know that all of this Earth shall change and all shall perish.

All the mighty shall fall and structures shall crumble like dust. The mountains shall float and the seas shall merge and ..yes… ALL shall perish. All creatures gathered and judgments given. All shall be as no one can imagine.. and ALL shall perish..

The tears, the smiles, the joys of people… The memories and little things we put in little boxes to keep forever.. The trees and flowers we planted with love, the dresses we wore and the homes we built.. All shall perish. When we will not cry for anyone, when we will not care. When we will just know ourselves alone…and YOU… for YOU shall not perish.

Yes, I know.. that one day.. the Earth will spill out all it contains and reveal to all with sense what was reality. Reality we ignored and chose illusions.. illusions that shall perish..

I ask you my Allah, in writing and in word and from my heart and my soul… I beg you .. that when All this does perish.. let not my awareness of You perish.. let not your mercy for me Perish.. let not your love Perish.. I beg you.. I request.. I bow in submission and ask you and know that you are the Most Merciful and Compassionate… Do not let your Mercy upon me Perish…

La ilaha Il Allah, Muhammadun Rasool Allah…

Be Still

Stand still for a minute. Keep silent. Let the world pass by. Let the sun rise and let it set again. Don’t be in a hurry. Don’t be afraid of loss. And, don’t run for gain. Be still.
Look around you and see the purpose of each created entity. A tree stands in a place for a reason. A man crosses the street for a reason. An event, good or bad, occurs for a reason. For once, don’t interfere with all that is happening. Don’t try to change what you cannot change.
Go back in time to another day in the past. Remember all that you did that day and all that occurred. And, in your mind, be very still that day. You see how each and every word and action from you and all the people of the world resulted in changes today. Had you stood still that day, your today would not have been the way it is today.

All happens for a purpose. Be still and calm and you will start to see how the world works. You will see how every second is counted and every action allowed or disallowed… is so significant…

The Presence

A constant awareness of being observed. Each word recorded. Each thought noted. A silent reaction felt loudly. A presence. Constant and consistent. Showing and guiding silently. Creating reason and defining situations. A presence.

It is not an illusion for illusions never last so long. It is too powerful to ignore even when extreme joy of this world overwhelms the mind or when the heaviest burden of despair is placed upon the heart..the silent observer, the owner, the Creator…the presence is constant. Unseen and not felt by any of the senses but by a sense undefined and unknown. A feeling so deep within that ignoring leaves my being with no realm to exist in..
I live each moment..in thy presence my Lord…each moment..

A realization..

Is this the dream or is the dream what I see when I sleep?
We gather together in other realities to meet and see the reality of eachother each night and upon return to this world of illusion, we forget it all..
There is so much we experience but awareness restricts us. That is because we restrict awareness. Our fears guard it from wandering out of the cage of reality we construct and confine feelings, sensitivity snd awareness to…
We see it all, we know it all yet we shall admit it not..that is because we fear the responsibility of being aware and we fear holding the light In our hearts. Why?

We see our own soul and other souls..but we ignore their reality and impose our own so that we can label..

We love to play God and not submit to God..

My Feelings..

Often..and many times in a day..you complain.
You say that I don’t pay attention…that I live in a world of my own. Often you say this. And, I walk away silently. And, this you hate.
But then tell me…..what am I to do?
When words mean nothing and when explanations are destroyed by disbelief..what is one to do but remain silent.
Silently, I watch the sun rise and set..I watch the night disappear into day and day into night..silently, I see faces change and life move. Silently, I give all my attention to you and you see it not….
You see not the gaze of my heart as my eyes look elsewhere..you see not my constant awareness of you…you see me not. You see only your own pain..
…..and not my feelings…

Ignorant Believer

Not a book have I read nor shall I read nor can I!
Ignorant I am of the sciences taught and definitions. Educated I am not in suppositions and I know not what great men have written.

But I bow not to a man..I beg not a human nor a jinn. I walk tall and I fear no one. I give to and I take not from people. I fear not death nor an enemy strong. I stop to wipe the tears of a child and I sit with the old and hear their tales with a smile.

I am a believer of God. I see Him not, I feel Him. I ask Him for even a pinch of salt..if needed. I spend my moments with Him around..and I feel peace when all are lost..
IGNORANT ..they call me. Yet, to me they come. They call me night and day..I call them not. Their knowledge makes them weak and sad..my faith makes me happy and strong..yes..ignorant am I!
No! Make me not of the knowledgable..I am happy in ignorance..but deprive me not of faith in you My Lord…

Broken Hearts..

Broken hearts are in reality unbreakable containers of despair sealed by disappointments..
Disappointments caused by expectations from the created and not the Creator..
Forgive, overlook and move on..be fair to your heart..

Consequence of Anger..

And when the Sea is angered, ships are wrecked and lives are lost.. 

Enforce with anger, express with anger.. intolerant and angry. Whether right or wrong, some people are always angry. Most of the time this anger is to scare someone and many times it is ignorance. Because Anger is the child of frustration and frustration is only because of either ignorance or deprivation, or a perception of deprivation of something. Anger is the attempt to secure oneself. But, it does not deliver security at all.

The beauty of truth is lost if truth is expressed in anger and haste.

A reaction to good or bad is wasted if the reaction is anger. A heart is destroyed if anger surrounds it. Anger is the impatience of a soul to deliver or to BE in a state of being. Impatience is not a virtue. It is the ignorant mind’s assumption of time and this mind truly feels that existence is limited , when it is not. Anger is the result of knowing the half truth and not the whole truth. Thus, the angry person , even if saying what is right, is not appreciated nor loved and sometimes…. not even heard.

Perception will never be complete, nor vision will ever see completely if anger is not dealt with. Anger is the formation of a powerful energy that can be converted to lift the soul to a higher place..and it must be suppressed for it to acquire this quality. Silence tames anger. Halting expression and gesture at the time of anger tames it. Do so.

The consequence of anger is never good. So, if you think you have said something right or enforced goodness through anger ,and you even may have – you have also caused despair and resentment and put the seed for rebellion and chaos..

No, if you have not controlled anger, you have a long journey of learning ahead of you…

Lets take a walk..

Lets take a walk , like we used to… to nowhere. Holding hands and talking..discussing.. and defining nothing..but talking. Enjoying a conversation that has no meaning. Excited about the walk. The togetherness. Lets take that walk again… me and you.

A walk without purpose. A walk on a beach, a garden or a road. A walk during the day , evening or night. Lets take that walk again. Just you and me. Celebrating us. Celebrating our existence and meeting. That walk which in itself is pleasure. A walk so long and so far that many would get so tired, yet we do not tire nor do our legs feel pain. You look at me and express nonsense with joy , I smile at you and nod as if I understand. Then I tell you a story with so much excitement and you say “wow” , yet you did not hear a word.

Yes, my dear.. let us take that walk again. It has been a while. We have been smart too long. We have been wise enough. We have been “realistic” and been on a mission. We are tired of sitting. Lets get up and go. Together. On that walk…

Lets just enjoy each other .. once again.

Secret of the Desert

Why did you tell me the secret of the desert? I was far away. Purposely. I had walked away. Happily. I had forsaken this land. Why my Lord? Why? For in knowing what I do, I am to be held responsible for what I know. And, silently I see many perish and many rise. I must quietly watch, and lovingly suggest.

Beware oh Curious one..

…Below the acres of sand are the greatest treasures of earth and on it are displays to hide these treasures. Illusions to distract the eye and test the minds and hearts of those that dare to enter. Where they fear to talk, is compassion. Where they dare to speak , is wrath. What seems unjust, is fair and what seems fair is a test. One shall meet a young man who was born a century ago and one shall meet an old man who is but a child. You shall be tested and yes, you can test too. Whom you shall see as an enemy , shall do you favors. And, who you think is a friend, shall betray you. You shall be tested in this desert.

This desert will make you a prince and this desert shall send you back crying or you may get buried in despair and die. You decide.

You walk on the land that God has chosen. You walk on the land of peace. But peace comes not without power. And power is from God. You shall be given many moments of solitude and many days of joy. You will have to reflect and you will have to look in your own heart. You will have to seek within and not here nor there. You must, if you wish to embrace this land and befriend the desert. And more than all this, if you wish to BE.

The Secret of the Desert is not revealed to many. And it is discovered by a few.

For when you walk on this land, you walk on where Judgement shall be..
