Sufi secrets 6

Heart must desire -will- knowledge – gnosis of Allah nothing else for purification .

Unification consists in making the heart single –1.The mystic’s desire and will should be severed from all things which are desired and willed 2.all objects of knowledge and understanding should be removed from his intellectual vision. His thoughts should be directed solely towards God, he should not be conscious of anything besides.

With passion and lust-it is hard to maintain relation with God.mind must be filled with Allah alone.

It is an axiom of the Sufis that what is not in a man he cannot know.

Man  is the micro-cosm(entire universe is in him), ‘a copy made in the image of God,’ ‘the eye of the world whereby God sees His own works.’

In knowing himself as he really is, he knows God, and he knows himself through God, who is nearer to everything than its knowledge of itself. Knowledge of God precedes, and is the cause of, self-knowledge.

Gnosis proclaims that ‘I’ is a figure of speech, and that one cannot truly refer any will, feeling, thought, or action to one’s self.

If a man regards himself as existing through God, that which is of God in him predominates over the phenomenal element and makes it pass away, so that he sees nothing but God.

If, on the contrary, he regards himself as having an independent existence, his unreal egoism is displayed to him and the reality of God becomes hidden from him.

The gnostic neither laughs/gain nor weeps/loss (both are selfish actions)

Prosperity is true belief in God, which requires complete abstraction from created things.

In the gnostic’s vision there are no divine rewards and punishments, no human standards of right and wrong. For him, the written word of God has been abrogated by a direct and intimate revelation.

“I do not say,” exclaimed Abu ’l-Hasan Khurqani, “that Paradise and Hell are non-existent, but I say that they are nothing to me, because God created them both, and there is no room for any created object in the place where I am.”

God, the omnipresent and omnipotent, is not limited by any one creed, for He says (Kor. 2.109), ‘Wheresoever ye turn, there is the face of Allah.’ 

When I want to talk to Allah I say prayers and when I want that he talk to me I recite quran- Hazrath Ali(ra)
