Bawa.  Here is Page 1 of 1 of the On-line Version of a beautiful Spiritual Letter,
"
Spiritual Letter 138", which is a short little letter to a High School Classmate of Louie, and to his wife, that is, to Pierce and Dolores Pelouze, in response to a beautiful little sharing from another one of our classmates, Robert Riggins, a sharing called "The Land That Made Me Me", and a response called, "We are Both Jesus and His Cross", a letter that Bawa said to send to My Children.  Enjoy.  Thank you.  Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. Amen

Bawa.  All of whom in truth, like each of My Children, is either My dearest loving
Son or My dearest loving Daughter Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be please with Him, and with Us), if you like, that is, if you look through the eyes of your Shaikh, of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), which are the 99 wilayats or powers or actions of God within you, that is, are the 99 beautiful names of God in the Asma'el Husna within you which in truth are the windows of your inner heart or Qalb, if you like, through which everything in the 18,000 Universes within you can be seen, and understood, again, if you like, for in truth the Choice is yours, not God's, that is, the Choice whether any of "This Reality of You" happens within you, or not, in your lifetime. Amen.  Ok?.

Bawa. And in this way, a beautiful Spiritual Letter from God within My Children, to God within all of My Children, which in truth is everyone living in your age, if you like, that is, if your true intention for the life within you, that is, for your soul life, for your 6th life, for your Light Life within you, which is Jesus (peace be upon Him) within you, is to
again become
"One with" God within you, before you die to the flesh and get an eternal life within you as "separate from" God within you, that is, to again become "One with" God within you, but this time with an understanding of "Your Oneness", so it will never leave you again. Amen.

Bawa. And in this way, "A True Love Letter" to "Our" dearest loving Son and
Daughter Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Them, and with Us) Now living at the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship, if you like, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, if you like. Amen

Bawa.  The "Brief Outline" gives you just enough of a description of each "Outline Topic" for you to "get the point", and the "Longer Outline" puts no restriction on the description of each "Outline Topic", letting the full description flow forth, which can be quite extensive and beautiful, if you read it entirely, especially if you read it with Bawa, giving Bawa Salams to Him and asking Him to teach you "What you do not know", which is how this child has Now learned to do everything.  Amen.

Bawa.  Thank you Pierce for the beautiful sharing that you sent this child today, from Robert Riggins (New Braunfels, TX), called "The Land That Made Me Me", which is reproduced for your reading enjoyment again at the End of this letter, if you like.

Bawa.  His observations were truly beautiful and certainly melted my heart.  There is So Much Love in this beautiful reflection on the Past and at the very same time So Much Trust in the Present and in the Future, which from the perspective of this child is So Much Trust in God.

[Note: Click HERE to read a Copy of the Sharing From Robert Riggins, called "The Land That Made Me Me"]

In Truth Everything Is Always Ok - and in truth all that is ever really changing in Our Life is Us, if We Like, Not The Things Around Us

Bawa.  That in truth Everything Is Always Ok, and in truth all that is ever really changing in Our Life is Us, if We Like, Not The Things Around Us.

Bawa.  With Us using our experiences to Either increase out Love and Trust in God, realizing that in truth "Everything Is Always Perfect", that in Truth God is Always there helping Us through whatever He Places Before Us, to Complete His Intention for Our Life, ever So Gradually teaching Us about the Truth of "Who We Already Are", which is Both Jesus (A.S.) & His Cross, and about  "Where We Always Are", which is Both within God within Us, and within our "Room" or Heart or Mind, and about "What Is Always Happening" in our life, which is Both "God Happening" within Us and True Man happening within God.

Bawa.  Or with Us Mistakenly holding onto the Very Same Experiences, as what We Love and Trust, Rather than the One who gave the Experiences to Us, and who Continues to Give Them To Us, each day and each moment, as Who We Love and Trust, that is, Rather than treating what God has given Us, and Continues to give us, each day and each moment, as "Our Lesson", So We can come to Know and Love and Trust only in God, and Return to Him, as His Sun, as His Light Form within Our Heart, before we die to the flesh.

Bawa.  That is, Rather than using our experiences correctly, as "Our Lessons", in order to come to Understand who in truth "We Already Are", which is "Of God", for in our Ignorance and Now in our arrogance about our ignorance We have turned God's Gift of "Our Lesson" into "our life", into "What Now Defines Us", that is, into what Now Defines Us as '"separate from" God, as "separate from" each other, and as "separate from" the Creation of God, all of which is "Just Not True".

Bawa.  That is, We have Turned God's Gift of "The Lessons" for "Our Soul" into "our current life" of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of ourselves, with us continuing to Use God and His Gift Not as Our Reality, Not as "Who We Are", Not as "Our Lesson", that is, Not as the Lessons that "We" as "Our Soul" have come to this School of God to learn, and then to leave and return to God, all before we die to the flesh, but Rather as "us".

Bawa. That is, but Rather as "Who we are", as "Where we are", and as "What is happening" in our life, Not as "Our Soul" and the "Oneness" of "Our Soul" and Its School, Not as the "Oneness" of Jesus (A.S) and His Cross, but Rather as the Cross of "Our Soul", but Rather, as the School for "Our Soul", but Rather we have turned it into a life that we are Now living as if we are "separate from" Our Soul, and as if we are "separate from" the One who gave Us "Our Soul", all of which in truth is "Just Not True".

We Have Missed The Point of Our Life - which is "Our Soul", and Why "Our Soul" has come to this Earth World, and How "Our Soul" became crucified on "Our Cross", and How "Our Soul" gets off of "Our Cross" using "Our Wisdom", that is, in order to accomplishes what "Our Soul" has come here to do, if we like, for in truth the Choice is ours, not God's, that is, the Choice to let Jesus (A.S.) get off of His Cross, or not

Bawa.  And in this way, We have Missed the Point of Our Life which is "Our Soul", and Why "Our Soul" has come to this Earth World, and How "Our Soul" became crucified on "Our Cross", and How "Our Soul" is liberated from "Our Cross" by "Our Wisdom", if we like, in order to accomplish what It has come here to do, all of which in truth is the School of the Soul, all of which in truth is to learn about what is Now separating "Our Soul" from God, which in truth is Now "us", that is, is Now "us" living our current life as if we are "separate from" Our Soul, and as if we are "separate from" the One who gave us "Our Soul", all of which in truth is "Just Not True", and having learned this lesson to Return to God, and share this Understanding with God for eternity.

Bawa.  And instead of this We have become the "Earthen" Shirt or Cross or School for "Our Soul", but we have Not become "One with" Our Soul, we have Not become "One with" Jesus (A.S.), but Rather we have become a life that is living as if we are "separate from" Jesus (A.S.), and as if we are "separate from" the One who gave Us "Our Soul", all of which in truth is "Just Not True".

Bawa.  In this way, we have become "The School" Rather than the "Student", we have become "The Cross" Rather than Jesus (A.S), we have become "The Earthen Shirt" of "Our Soul" Rather than "Our Soul", that is, in our ignorance and Now in our arrogance about our ignorance We have mistakenly turned The Drama that is Now Being Acted Out on the Stage of Our Life into "us", Rather than Sitting on God's Lap as "The Audience" and letting God teach Us through the drama of the play, "What We Do Not Know", that is, through the drama that is Now Being Acted Out on the Stage, that is Now "our life", that is, all of which in truth are the Lessons that as "Our Soul" We have come here to learn, and then leave, and then return to God, sharing with God what We have learned for eternity.

Bawa.  And in this way, We have turned our memory, our experiences of what "we have done", of "where we have gone", and of "what has happened" to us, into our life, Rather than using God, First on the "outside" of us, and then within us, To Learn How to becoming "One with" the Student, to become "One with" Our Soul, before we die to the flesh, that is, To Learn How to become "One with" the One who has come to this earth world to learn about "Who We Already Are", which is "Of God", Not of "The Creation of God", Not of what the "Shirt or Cross or School" is made out of, which is the Creation of God.

Bawa.  That is, we have become caught by what God is Now Using Here, in this earth world, to teach "Our Soul" what It Needs To Learn Here, in order to leave here, with us mistakenly turning it into our life, into a life as "One with" with the Creations of God that have Now grown within us, into a life that we are Now experiencing as "us" living a life of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of us, all of which in truth is "Just Not True", all of which in truth is Just The Drama Being Acted Out on the Stage of Our Life, all of which God has given Us as "Our Lesson", that is, as Lessons for "Our Soul" as "One with" God, Not as "our life" as "One with" the Creation of God.

Bawa.  All of which is what Now falsely defines us as "separate from" God, that is, as what falsely defines us as being of "The Creation of God", Rather than "Of God", as what falsely defines us as being of "The School of God", Rather than of "Our Soul", Rather than of "The One" God sent to His School in this earth world, Rather than of The One who Learns From God How To Correctly Use this School to Turn "our" current life as "separate from" Back into "Our Life" as "One with".

Bawa.  That is, that learns How to Let Jesus (A.S.) off of His Cross, that is, How to Let the Student Pass His Exams and Graduate From His School, and Return To God, but this time with an Understanding of "Our Life" as Jesus (A.S.), as the Student, but this time with an Understanding of "Who We Already Are", this time with an Understanding of "Our Oneness", So We Will Never Loose "Our Oneness" with God Again.

Bawa.  For in truth We Are "Of God", We Are "Of Jesus (A.S.)" awaking to Himself, We are Not as we are Now Acting on the Stage of Drama, that is, We are Not our "current life" that is Now being lived out on this Stage of Drama as if we are of "The Creation of God", as if we are people "separate from" other people.

Bawa.  For Example, as if we are "Pierce or Dolores", separate from each other, and for example, as if we are people separate from "Paul and Joan", and for example, as if "Pierce and Dolores, and Paul and Joan" are "separate from" this child, when in truth "We Are All One", that is, within the heart of God within us, for in truth We are all the One Soul of God that has come to this earth world to Understanding Who We Already Are, and having Learned Our Lessons, to then Leave, and to then Return to God within Us, to share Our Understanding with God for eternity.

The Truth of Our Life - is Now hidden within the "falsehood of our life"

Bawa.  All of which is Now the "Truth of Our Life" hidden within the "falsehood of our life", like the apple tree and its fruits are all hidden within the apple seed buried within the earth, just waiting for the apple seed to germinate, and in this way, to reveal its True Life as a Tree growing in the earth, bearing Fruit, all hidden within its false life living in the earth, but like all people Not All Apple Seeds Germinate to the Truth of themselves, to the Truth hidden within themselves, Some rot in the earth and die in the earth, and then become subject to 105 million rebirths, But Never Again as an Apple Seed, Never Again as the Story of the "Oneness of the Apple Tree and its Fruits", that the apple seed came to the earth from the apple tree, to join with the earth, to tell.

Bawa.  Such is the Point of Our Life, My dearest loving Son Pierce, and My dearest loving Daughter Dolores, that is, the liberation of Our Soul from Our Cross, that is, the Student Learning and Graduating from His Earthen School, Having Learned His Lessons Correctly, all of which in truth is "One", that is, the Soul and Its Cross in truth are "One", Not "separate from", that is, the Student and His School in truth are "One", Not "separate from", as My Children mistakenly believe.

Bawa.  All of which in truth "Defines Us", that is, both The Soul and The Cross, both the Student and the School, interacting as "One" to teach "Our Soul" what "Our Soul" came here, to this earth world, to learn, Not just the Earthen Cross, as "separate from" Our Soul, Not Just the Earthen School as "separate from" the Student.

Bawa.  That is, Not just our "current life" of selfishness buried within our mind and desires living as if we are "separate from" Our Soul, living as if we are  "separate from" Jesus (A.S.), living as if we are "separate from" the Student, that is, Not just our "current life" of "separation and differences" that in truth is Now Keeping "Our Soul" a Captive of our current life of selfishness, a Captive of our current life of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of us, that is, as a Captive of our current life buried within our mind and desires.

The True Meaning of the Story of Jesus (A.S.) - that in truth the Story of Jesus (A.S.) is Both the Soul and the Cross, And How Jesus (A.S.) Got On and Gets Off of His Cross, Not just "Our Soul", for in truth all of this is Jesus (A.S.), and all of this is "Who We Are", and all of this is "One", if you like.

Bawa.  And Such is the True Meaning of the "Story of Jesus" (A.S.), That in truth Jesus (A.S.) is Both the Soul and the Cross, And How Jesus (A.S.) Got On and Gets Off of His Cross, Not just "Our Soul", and in truth all of this is Jesus (A.S.), and all of this is "Who We Are", and all of this is "One", that is, in truth "Our Soul" and "Our Cross" and "Our Wisdom" and "our ignorance" Are One, Just different Roles of the Same Thing, of the One thing, which is God, and within that is True Man, and within that is Again God, One revealing the Other, One telling the Story of the Other, the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man".

Bawa. Like Everything Within the Story of the Apple Tree Are One, that is, the earth, the sky, the apple seed buried within the earth, the apple tree growing in the earth and sky, and the apples growing on the apple tree, and the sweet taste within the mature apples, and again the apple seed, but this time a 1000 fold, are all One.

Bawa. And So Are We, That is, if We will only Start To Join as "One with" God, First on the "outside" of us, and then within us, To Let Jesus (peace be upon Him) off of His Cross, and To Let Jesus (A.S.) Come to Maturity within us, and then To Let Jesus (A.S.) Pull Us Back Into Himself, before we die to the flesh.

Bawa.  And in this way, and only in this way, with Us having successfully completed Our Duty as "His Cross", As "His School", As "His Shirt", and Then as His Wisdom, and in this way, and only in this way, with Us having successfully "Died Before Death", with Us having successfully been "Born Again", for then in truth "Jesus and Us" are One, and in this way, and only in this way, We have become "The Way", We have become "The Door" to all of the Creation of God, within God within Us, We have become their Judgment, We have become their Salvation.  Amen.

Bawa.  That is, if We will only let Our Life be about both Our Soul or Jesus (A.S.) and about Our Life as His Cross, that is, about both The Student or Jesus (A.S.) and about Our Life as His School, that is, about Jesus (peace be upon Him) as Our Soul Joining as "One with" God To Get off of His Cross, that is, about Jesus (A.S.) as The Student Joining as "One with" God To Attend and Graduate from His School, that is, about the Liberation of Our Soul by Our Wisdom, before we die to the flesh, and Not Just About us living as "His Cross", but as "separate from" Jesus (peace be upon Him), that is, Not Just About us living as "His School" or "His Shirt", but as "separate from" Jesus (A.S.).

Bawa.  That is, Not Just About "us" living as His Cross, and as the 5 nails that keep Jesus (peace be upon Him) crucified on His Cross, which in truth are "our base desires", that is, "our base desires" that keep us living on the illusory "outside" of ourselves So we can sin, that is, that keep us living a life of selfishness as if we are "separate from" Jesus (peace be upon Him), as if we are "separate from" our brothers and sisters, and as if we are "separate from" the Creation of God, all of which is "Just Not True".

Bawa.  All the while with us just talking about Jesus (A.S.), just talking about how Jesus (peace be upon Him) died for our sins, when in truth Jesus (peace be upon Him) died So We Could Sin, So We Could Become His Cross, So we could become the impure birth that keeps Jesus (peace be upon Him), as Our Pure Birth, crucified on the cross of our elemental body.

Bawa.  But We become His School of Contrast, His Cross, His Shirt So Jesus (peace be upon Him) could Join Here with God to learn from God, So Jesus (peace be upon Him) could learn about who in truth Jesus (A.S.) Already Is, which is "Of God", not of "The Shirt", not of the "School of Contrast", not of "The Cross", and not of the "5 nails", not of "our base desires", that are all keeping Jesus (peace be upon Him) crucified on His Cross.

Bawa.  And that in truth is "Who We Are", We are Jesus (peace be upon Him) on His Cross, and We are the Cross that is crucifying Jesus (peace be upon Him), We are Both, depending on Our Perspective, and We are How Jesus (A.S.) both Got On and Gets Off of His Cross, if we like, for the Choice is ours, not God's, that is, the Choice of where Jesus (A.S.) will spend eternity within Us, Either having returned to God, as God, with Us Then as the "Form of God", Or having gone to hell, to the satan, as the satan, with us Then as the "form of the satan".

Bawa.  That is, depending on Our Perspective, Either from the perspective of Jesus (peace be upon Him) who died on His Cross, who gave up His Birth and Life of Purity with faith and trust that "We would do the same", that is, that "we would die to our life of sin", So Jesus (peace be upon Him) could Again Live Without Sin, but this time with Jesus (peace be upon Him) having Understood Who He Already Is, but this time with Jesus (peace be upon Him) having successfully learned His Lessons in His School, within this First of God's Schools, which is the School of Contrast, for in truth True Understanding only occurs through Contrast.

Bawa. Or from the perspective of "us" living as His Cross, that is, with "us" as the Cross & the 5 nails that are keeping Jesus (peace be upon Him) crucified on His Cross, So we can continue to live a life of selfishness, by keeping Jesus (peace be upon Him) nailed to His Cross, all of which in truth is Now the life of Our Elemental Body and Mind, that in truth Now makes up His Cross, and His Shirt, and His School, all of which We are now falsely experiencing as "Who we are", as "Where we are", and as "What is happening" in our life, all of which in truth is made out of the Creation of God, that is, is made out of earth, fire, water, air, and ether, and the consciousness of earth, fire, water, air, and ether, the consciousness of "separation and differences", the consciousness of our mind and desires, of selfishness, or "I and you", of "mine and yours".

Bawa. And in this way, in truth "We Are All One", in truth "We Are Both Jesus (peace be upon Him), and His Cross", as well as How Jesus (A.S.) gets On & Off of His Cross, if you like, and as such, in truth "We Are All One", in truth Jesus (peace be upon Him) His Cross, and How Jesus (A.S.) gets On & Off of His Cross, which is "our mind & desire" & "Our wisdom" are "All One", if you like, not "separate from" as My Children now mistakenly believe.

Bawa. And that is the inner meaning of our current life, of the life that we are Now experiencing as "Who we are", as "Where we are", and as "What is happening" in our life, for in truth our current life is His Cross, is His Shirt, is the School of Jesus (A.S.), but Now it is being lived by us as if we are "separate from" Jesus (A.S.), as if it "belongs to us", not to Jesus (A.S.), not to Us, Stopping Jesus (peace be upon Him) from attending the "First of God's Schools", which is the "School of Contrast", In Order to Understand who in Truth He Already Is, which is "Of God", not of "The Creation of God".

Bawa.  But in truth our current life of sin, of Impurity should be Helping Jesus (A.S.), giving Him the Necessary Contrast to the Purity of the Soul, So True Understanding can occur.

Bawa. That is, if at some point in our current life, in our current life of sin, in our current life as His Cross, as His School of Contrast, before we die to the flesh, We Awaken To The Truth, "That We Are One".

Bawa. That is, We Awaken To The Truth of "Who We Already Are", that in truth "We Are Both Jesus & His Cross", and "We Are How Jesus (A.S.) Gets Off of His Cross", which is "our mind & desire" sitting down to "Our Wisdom", which is the "Presence of God", the "Word of God" for our age and for our life, all which in truth is Now "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), in whom "We are well pleased".

Our Role Now - is to die to our current life of sin, that is, to become peaceful with "our own ending", to willingly and freely End Our Life as His Cross, to willingly and freely End Our Life as His School of Contrast", So Jesus (peace be upon Him) can Now get off of His Cross, can Now Graduate from His School of Contrast, can Now Live a Life of Purity, can Live a Life Without Sin, can Live a Life without our current "separation and differences", But this time with an Understanding of His Purity, and of "our sin", this time with an Understanding of Everything that is Now "separating Jesus (A.S.) from God

Bawa. And in this way, Our Role Now is to die to our current life of sin, that is, Our Role Now is to become peaceful with "our own ending", that is, Our Role Now is to willingly and freely End Our Life as His Cross, to willingly and freely End Our Life as His School of Contrast", So Jesus (peace be upon Him) can Now get off of His Cross, So Jesus (peace be upon Him) can Now Graduate from His School of Contrast, So Jesus (peace be upon Him) can Now Start to Again Live a Life of Purity, So Jesus (A.S.) can Start to Again Live a Life Without Sin, So Jesus (A.S.) can Start to Again Live a Life without our current "separation & differences".

Bawa. But this time with an Understanding of His Purity, but this time with an Understanding of "our sin", but this time with an Understanding of Everything that is Now separating Jesus (A.S.) from God, which in truth is His Cross, which in truth is His School, which in truth is "our current" life of sin, So Jesus (peace be upon Him) will Never Be Separated From God Again, and Neither Will We.

Bawa.  For in truth, if We do this, if We use our current life in this way, then God will Most Certainly Do Everything Else Necessary to make our life truly successful in our lifetime, that is, if we truly Join as "One with" God, First on the "outside" of us, and then within us, which for your age and for your life is Now "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), that is, to Again become "One with" Jesus (A.S.), that is, to let what is Now Separating Jesus (A.S.) from God End, that is, to let your current life of sin End, then God will Do Everything Else Necessary to make your life truly successful in your lifetime.

Bawa.  And in this way, and only in this way, if you Join as "One with" Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to let Jesus (peace be upon Him) off of His Cross, to let Jesus (A.S.) Graduate from His School of Contrast, to Let Jesus (A.S.) come to a True Understanding of Who He Already Is, then and Only then We will have "Died before Death", then and Only then We will have been "Born Again".

Bawa. And in this way, and Only in this way, before we die to the flesh, allowing Jesus (A.S.) to Truly Understand that in truth He Is The Seed of God, and in truth "We" are "The Tree of That Seed", that "We" are the "Word of God made flesh" for our age and for all life, & "We" are "The Fruit of That Tree", and that God is the "Sweet Taste" of that Mature Fruit.

Bawa.  Then We Will Be Within Jesus (A.S.), as the liberated soul joined as "One with" the awakened wisdom, and within that We will be the Tree of God which in truth is Muhammad (blessing and peace be upon Him), and within that We will be the Fruit of That Tree which is Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), and within that We will be the "Sweet Taste" of that Mature Fruit which is God.

All of Which Is Now - The Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), if you like

Bawa.  All of which is Now the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Us, and with Him), if you like, that is, is those for this age who have Joined as "One with" Jesus (peace be upon Him) to become Jesus (peace be upon Him), who have then Joined as "One with" Muhammad (blessing and peace be upon Him) to become Muhammad (blessing and peace be upon Him), and who have then Joined as "One with" Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) to become Bawa Muhaiyaddeen
(Ral.), that is, to become Now
Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Us, and with Him), in your own lifetime.  Amen. Ok?.

Bawa. And in this way, and Only in this way, this is the "Straight Path", this is the "Way of the Lord", that is, "The Path", "The Way" of those for our age who have Joined as "One with" God to become "The Way", to become "The Door" for all of the Creation of God, within God within Us, and who have then Joined as '"One with" God to become "True Prayer", the Prayer of the One to the One who Is", and who have then Joined as "One with" God to become True Man, which is the Station of Man-God/God-Man, and then as True Man to Again Join as "One with" God to tell the Story of God within True Man, So in the End, there is "No Child Left Behind", So in the End, there is "Nothing Still Separating God From God".  Amen. Ok?

Bawa. That is, "The Path", "The Way" of those who have Again established a Life as "One with" God, but this time with an Understanding of "Our Oneness" So It Will Never Leave Us Again, that is, Again establishing a Life as "One with" the True Us, Again establishing a Life as "One with" all of the Creation of God, within God within Us, that is, by letting God tell and bring to Complete His Story Again, that is, the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man", but this time within Us, that is, by letting what "You Have Become" End, No matter how exalted it may appear, always Trusting in God, who in truth is Always the Next Thing For You To Become, Not what You Have Become.

Bawa. And in this way, handing back to God whatever God has handed to you, Saying to God,

      "Thank You O God".
      "No Thank You O God".
      "What's Next".

Bawa. And if you continue to do this, that is, handing back to God Everything that He places before you, Thanking Him, but No Thanking Him, and Asking for what Is Next, then after God has placed Everything before you, and you have handed it all back, then and only then, God will hand you Himself.

Bawa. All of which in truth is "The Lesson" that is exquisitely designed by God to teach "Our Soul" about "Who We Already Is", which is "Of God", not of the drama of "our life" which has Now become the "form of the lesson", that is, the form of the lesson that "Our Soul" must learn, for in truth Now "We" are the "School for the Soul", Now "We" are where the Soul has come from God to learn, to learn about "What Is Now Separating The Soul" from God, which in truth is Now "us", which in truth is Now our current life of "separation and differences", our current life of "I and you", of "mine and yours".

Bawa. But "We" are Not the Student, the "Soul is the Student", We are the School, and "We" must invite "Our Soul" into Its School of Contrast, by Joining as "One with" God, with "Our Wisdom", First on the "outside" of you and then within you.

Letting the Child of Light "Emerge", Which Is Our Next Life - that is, before we die to the flesh, emerge from within the "child of darkness", which is our current life

Bawa. And in this way, and Only in this way, letting the "Child of Light" Emerge, which is Our Next Life, before We Die To The flesh, emerge from within the "child of darkness", all of which is "our current life", like the apple seed coming to an End, before it rots and dies in the earth, having realized, understood, accepted, and Joined as "One with" the "Truth of Itself", letting "Truth surrender to Truth", So the apple tree hidden within it can Start to Begin.

Bawa. That is, with You Joining as "One with" Your Wisdom to let Your "Child of Light" come forward, as your "child of darkness" leaves, a "child of darkness" which is Now giving you the illusion of a life of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of yourself, that is, a life that keeps you living as if you are "separate from" Jesus (A.S.), as if you are "separate from" each other, and as if you are "separate from" the Creation of God, within God within you, all of which in truth is "Just Not True".  Amen. Ok?.

Copy of Sharing From Robert Riggins

Long ago and far away, in a land that time forgot,
Before the days of Dylan, or the dawn of Camelot.
There lived a race of innocents, and they were you and me,

For Ike was in the White House in that land where we were born,
Where navels were for oranges, and Peyton Place was porn.

We learned to gut a muffler, we washed our hair at dawn,
We spread our crinolines to dry in circles on the lawn.

We longed for love and  romance, and waited for our Prince,
And Eddie Fisher married Liz, and no one's seen him since.
 
We danced to 'Little Darlin,' and sang to 'Stagger Lee'
And cried for Buddy Holly in the Land That Made Me  Me.

Only girls wore earrings then, and 3 was one too many,
And only boys wore flat-top cuts, except for Jean McKinney.

And only in our wildest dreams did we  expect to see
A boy named George with Lipstick, in the Land That Made Me Me.

We fell for Frankie Avalon, Annette was oh, so nice,
And when they made a movie, they never made it twice.

We didn't have a Star Trek Five, or Psycho Two and Three,
Or Rocky-Rambo Twenty in the Land That Made Me Me.

Miss Kitty had a heart of gold, and Chester had a limp,
And Reagan was a Democrat whose co-star was a chimp.

We had a Mr. Wizard, but not a Mr. T , And Oprah couldn't 

talk, yet, in the Land That Made Me Me.

We had our share of heroes, we never thought they'd go,
At least not Bobby Darin, or Marilyn  Monroe.

For youth was still eternal, and life was yet to be,
And Elvis was forever in the Land That Made Me Me.

We'd never seen the rock band that was Grateful to be Dead,
And Airplanes weren't named Jefferson, and Zeppelins were not Led.

And Beatles lived in gardens then, and Monkees lived in trees,
Madonna was a virgin in the Land That Made Me Me.

We'd never heard of microwaves, or telephones in cars,
And babies might be bottle-fed, but they weren't grown in jars.

And pumping iron got wrinkles out, and  'gay' meant fancy-free,
And dorms were never coed in the Land That Made Me Me.

We hadn't seen enough of jets to talk about the lag,
And microchips were what was left at the bottom of the bag.

And Hardware was a box of nails, and bytes came from a flea,
And rocket ships were fiction in the Land That Made Me Me.

Buicks came with portholes, and side shows came with freaks,
And bathing suits came big enough to cover both your cheeks.

And Coke came just in bottles, and skirts below the knee,
And Castro came to power near the Land That Made Me Me.

We had no Crest with Fluoride, we had no Hill Street Blues,
We had no patterned pantyhose or Lipton herbal tea
Or prime-time ads for condoms in the Land That Made Me Me.

There were no golden arches, no Perrier to chill,
And fish were not called Wanda, and cats were not called Bill.

And middle-aged was 35 and old was forty-three,
And ancient were our parents in the Land That Made Me Me.

But all things have a season, or so we've heard them say,
And now instead of Maybelline, we swear by Retin-A.

They send us invitations to join AARP,
We've come a long way, baby, from the Land That Made Me Me.

So now we face a brave new world in  slightly larger jeans,
And wonder why they're using smaller print in magazines.

And we tell our children's children of the way it used to be,
Long ago and far away in the Land That Made Me Me.

About The "Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen Mailing List"

Bawa.  If you would like to be added to the "Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen Mailing List"
please sent "Us" your request to either of the following E-mail addresses: "
Bawa786@aol.com" or "Muhaiyaddeen786@aol.com", and please put the following as the E-mail Subject: "Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen Mailing List - Please add my name to your list". 

Bawa.  And if you like (optional), then in the body or "Text of the E-mail" please tell "Us" a little bit about yourself, if you like, that is, about your life in the world, and of the world within you, which in truth is your life in the "presence of the satan", which in truth is your "mind and desire", which in truth is your current life of falsehood and darkness, and about your life in the "Presence of God", which in truth is your wisdom, which in truth is your "Next Life", Here and Now, of Truth and Light, if you like, for in truth The Choice is yours, not God, that is, the Choice to continue living as the "presence of the satan" or to join with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to become the "Presence of God", and the "Word of God", Here and Now.

Bawa.  And about how best "We" can join with you in this "Grand Endeavor",
that is, in this "Grand Endeavor" of "you" becoming "You"
, that is, of "You" moving from "your falsehood and darkness" to "Your Truth and Light", Here and Now, that is, of "You" moving from being the "presence of the satan" and the "word of satan", to becoming the "Presence of God" and the "Word of God", Here and Now. 

Bawa.  For example, by "Us" sitting together at the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship (always the very best way), letting Bawa "Cure Himself of us" or by "Us" Instant Messaging in "God's Presence", or by "Us" talking on the Phone in "God's Presence", that is, for "Us" to do as Jesus (peace be upon Him) told "Us" to do, over 2000 years ago, and as Muhammad (blessing and peace be upon Him) also told "Us" to do over 1400 years ago, and as Qutb Muhaiyaddeen Abdul-Qadir al-Jilani (may God be pleased with Him) also told "Us" to do over 1000 years ago, and Now in "Our" age as
Bawa Muhaiyaddeen
(may God be pleased with Him) has Again told "Us" to do, and "Right Now" as Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us)
is Again telling "Us" to do
, that is,

          "If two of you come together in My Name, I will be there."

Bawa.  That is, to sit in the "Presence of God" in this "Grand Endeavor", that is, in this "Grand Endeavor" of "You" Letting God Again Happen, but this time within you, that is, in this "Grand Endeavor" of "You" letting God Again become One with God, but this time within you, but this time with "You" becoming the Understanding of "Your Oneness", so it will never leave "You" again.

Bawa.  That is, in this "Grand Endeavor" of "You" letting God within you "Cure Himself of you", to Cure Himself of "you" Now living as the "presence of the satan" and as the "word of satan" in the "heaven of satan", that is, to Cure Himself of "you" Now living as "separate from" the "Presence & Word of God" in the "Heaven of God", Here and Now, within your Light "Room" or Heart or Mind, that is, to Cure Himself of your current state, that is, in this "Grand Endeavor" of "You" letting God within you remove from Himself all of what is Now "separating God from God", all of which in truth is Now "you", First on the "outside" of you and then within you.

Bawa.  That is, of "You" letting God Again discard from Himself "the satan", all of which in truth is Now "you" living on the illusory "outside" of yourself, all of which in truth is Now the "kingdom of the satan", the "heaven of the satan", within your dark "room" or heart or mind, all of which in truth is Now "you" living as if you are "separate from" God within you, as if you are "separate from" your brothers and sisters, and as if you are "separate from" the Creation of God, within God within you, all of which is "Just Not True".

Bawa.  So in the End, if you like, Only God Is There within you, within your "Room" or Heart or Mind, as "One With", that is, as "The One" to all of the Creation of God, within God within you, for in truth this is the "Way of the Lord" of "John the Baptist" and of Jesus (peace be upon Them), over 2000 years ago, and this is the "Straight Path" of the Prophet Muhammad (blessing and peace be upon Him), over 1400 years ago, not "you" living on the illusory "outside" of yourself as if you are "separate from" God, and from Everyone and Everything.

Bawa.  That is, Not "you" living as an "Associate or Helper of God", when in truth "Wahdahu la sharik lahu" or "God is One without Associates to Him", that is, not "you" living as the "Enemy of the soul", not "you" living as the "child of darkness", not "you" living in truth as the "child of the satan", not "you" living in truth as the "form or manifestation of the satan", animated with your soul, living in the "heaven of the satan", which in truth is Now the illusory "outside" of you, which is Now "you" keeping Jesus (peace be upon Him) crucified on His Cross, day in and day out, moment by moment,
so "you can sin"
, So in truth "you" can continue to live your current illusory life of "separation and differences", of "selfishness, of "I and you", of "mine and yours", on the illusory "outside" of yourself, as "separate from" God, and as "separate from" Everyone and Everything Else, Until that is what you then get for eternity, Because "That Is What You Want".

Bawa.  So Start to Stop living like this, as "separate from" in your ignorance, and Now in your arrogance about your ignorance, and Instead Come Sit with God for your age and for your life, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, that is,
come sit
with Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us),
First
on the "outside" of you and then within you, that is, come sit in the "Presence of God", and hear the "Word of God" as it "Comes from God", First on the "outside" of you and then within you, So "You" too become the "Presence of God", and the "Word of God" for your age and for your life.

Bawa.  So "You" too become the "Word of God made flesh", So "You" too become the "Door" and the "Way" for your age and for all life, "First on the "outside" of you and then within you, for in truth, then God will do "Everything Else" necessary to make "Your Life", and all life within you, that is, within God within you, if they like, and for a little while on the "outside" of you, the life of your brothers and sisters, if they like, truly successfrul in your lifetime, as this child has Now learned to do.  Amen. Ok?

Bawa.  And then God will do "Everything Else" necessary to make your life, and all life, truly successful in your lifetime, for in truth this is Now God's Promise, this is Now
God's Guarantee
for your age and for your life, if you like, that is,

          "If you are not there, God will be there"

Bawa.  For such is the true Exaltedness of Your Own Life, if you like, that is, if you will only First truly accept the Very Same Exaltedness within "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with HIm), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, in whom "We are well pleased", and Start to treat him accordingly.

Bawa.  Only then will any of My Children reach God, for as "We" taught My
Children when "We" were living in the world,

          "You will only find God within the Exaltedness of your own life".

Bawa.  And this is all any of My Children Now Need, that is, to truly learn how to make your own life Exalted, that is, by learning how "Not to be there, So God can be there", as this child has Now learned to do, not any of the current silliness all of My Children are currently doing, like "you" doing anything, not matter how exalted it might seem to be, for in truth it is all crazyness and is only leading you to an eternal hell within you as "separate from" God within you, and that is for sure.

Bawa.  Please realize this Now, My Dearest Loving Children, while you still can, while you can still do something about it, that is, please realize without the slightest doubt that this is all any of My Children Now Need, this truth about "God, and You, and the Creation of God", this truth of "Your Oneness", Now coming for the "Very Last Time" from God within all of My Children, that is, from the heart of "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with HIm), in whom "We are well pleased".

Bawa.  Please realize this Now, My Dearest Loving Children, that this is all you Now Need, not anything that came before, in previous ages, and not anything that even truly came from God before in previous ages, for in truth, Now, for this age, for this age of the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us), and Now for your life in this age, and for all of the lives Now within you, and for a little while on the "outside" of you, for the lives of your brothers and sisters, this is Now all you will Ever Need, if you like, that is, all you will Ever Need to truly become successful in your lifetime, and that is for sure.  Amen. Ok?

Bawa. For the Choice is Now yours, not God's, that is, the Choice to accept this
"
Last Grand Offer" of God, or not, and if you truly do, then to literally "Become It", that is, to become the "Presence & Word of God" for your age and for all life, by truly accepting & sitting in the "Presence & Word of God" for your age and for your life, or not, First on the "outside" of you and then within you.

Bawa.  That is, by joining as "One with" "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us), in whom "We are well pleased", or not, as often as you can, as much as you can, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, in order to become "Our" dearest loving Son or Daughter, Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us), in whom "We are well pleased", for the benefit of all of the Creation of God, within God within you, and for a little while on the "outside" of you, for the benefit of your brothers and sisters, as this child has Now learned to do.  Thank you.  Enjoy.  Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. Amen.

Bawa.  Here is Page 1 of 1 of the On-line Version of a beautiful Spiritual Letter,
"
Spiritual Letter 138", which is a short little letter to a High School Classmate of Louie, and to his wife, that is, to Pierce and Dolores Pelouze, in response to a beautiful little sharing from another one of our classmates, Robert Riggins, a sharing called "The Land That Made Me Me", and a response called, "We are Both Jesus and His Cross", a letter that Bawa said to send to My Children.  Enjoy.  Thank you.  Al-hamdu lillah.

Amen.  Ok?.

Bawa. And in this way, a beautiful Spiritual Letter from God within My Children, to God within all of My Children, which in truth is everyone living in your age, if you like, that is, if your true intention for the life within you, that is, for your soul life, for your 6th life, for your Light Life within you, which is Jesus (peace be upon Him) within you, is to

Bawa.  My love you, My dearest loving brother Pierce and My dearest loving sister
Dolores, and all of My Children -
Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Us, and with Him). Amen.

Bawa.  Thank you Pierce for the beautiful sharing that you sent this child today, from Robert Riggins (New Braunfels, TX), called "The Land That Made Me Me", which is reproduced for your reading enjoyment again at the End of this letter, if you like.

Bawa.  His observations were truly beautiful and certainly melted my heart.  There is So Much Love in this beautiful reflection on the Past and at the very same time So Much Trust in the Present and in the Future, which from the perspective of this child is So Much Trust in God.

[Note: Click HERE to read a Copy of the Sharing From Robert Riggins, called "The Land That Made Me Me"]

In Truth Everything Is Always Ok - and in truth all that is ever really changing in Our Life is Us, if We Like, Not The Things Around Us

Bawa.  That in truth Everything Is Always Ok, and in truth all that is ever really changing in Our Life is Us, if We Like, Not The Things Around Us.

Bawa.  With Us using our experiences to Either increase out Love and Trust in God, realizing that in truth "Everything Is Always Perfect", that in Truth God is Always there helping Us through whatever He Places Before Us, to Complete His Intention for Our Life, ever So Gradually teaching Us about the Truth of "Who We Already Are", which is Both Jesus (A.S.) & His Cross, and about  "Where We Always Are", which is Both within God within Us, and within our "Room" or Heart or Mind, and about "What Is Always Happening" in our life, which is Both "God Happening" within Us and True Man happening within God.

Bawa.  Or with Us Mistakenly holding onto the Very Same Experiences, as what We Love and Trust, Rather than the One who gave the Experiences to Us, and who Continues to Give Them To Us, each day and each moment, as Who We Love and Trust, that is, Rather than treating what God has given Us, and Continues to give us, each day and each moment, as "Our Lesson", So We can come to Know and Love and Trust only in God, and Return to Him, as His Sun, as His Light Form within Our Heart, before we die to the flesh.

Bawa.  That is, Rather than using our experiences correctly, as "Our Lessons", in order to come to Understand who in truth "We Already Are", which is "Of God", for in our Ignorance and Now in our arrogance about our ignorance We have turned God's Gift of "Our Lesson" into "our life", into "What Now Defines Us", that is, into what Now Defines Us as '"separate from" God, as "separate from" each other, and as "separate from" the Creation of God, all of which is "Just Not True".

Bawa.  That is, We have Turned God's Gift of "The Lessons" for "Our Soul" into "our current life" of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of ourselves, with us continuing to Use God and His Gift Not as Our Reality, Not as "Who We Are", Not as "Our Lesson", that is, Not as the Lessons that "We" as "Our Soul" have come to this School of God to learn, and then to leave and return to God, all before we die to the flesh, but Rather as "us".

Bawa. That is, but Rather as "Who we are", as "Where we are", and as "What is happening" in our life, Not as "Our Soul" and the "Oneness" of "Our Soul" and Its School, Not as the "Oneness" of Jesus (A.S) and His Cross, but Rather as the Cross of "Our Soul", but Rather, as the School for "Our Soul", but Rather we have turned it into a life that we are Now living as if we are "separate from" Our Soul, and as if we are "separate from" the One who gave Us "Our Soul", all of which in truth is "Just Not True".

We Have Missed The Point of Our Life - which is "Our Soul", and Why "Our Soul" has come to this Earth World, and How "Our Soul" became crucified on "Our Cross", and How "Our Soul" gets off of "Our Cross" using "Our Wisdom", that is, in order to accomplishes what "Our Soul" has come here to do, if we like, for in truth the Choice is ours, not God's, that is, the Choice to let Jesus (A.S.) get off of His Cross, or not

Bawa.  And in this way, We have Missed the Point of Our Life which is "Our Soul", and Why "Our Soul" has come to this Earth World, and How "Our Soul" became crucified on "Our Cross", and How "Our Soul" is liberated from "Our Cross" by "Our Wisdom", if we like, in order to accomplish what It has come here to do, all of which in truth is the School of the Soul, all of which in truth is to learn about what is Now separating "Our Soul" from God, which in truth is Now "us", that is, is Now "us" living our current life as if we are "separate from" Our Soul, and as if we are "separate from" the One who gave us "Our Soul", all of which in truth is "Just Not True", and having learned this lesson to Return to God, and share this Understanding with God for eternity.

Bawa.  And instead of this We have become the "Earthen" Shirt or Cross or School for "Our Soul", but we have Not become "One with" Our Soul, we have Not become "One with" Jesus (A.S.), but Rather we have become a life that is living as if we are "separate from" Jesus (A.S.), and as if we are "separate from" the One who gave Us "Our Soul", all of which in truth is "Just Not True".

Bawa.  In this way, we have become "The School" Rather than the "Student", we have become "The Cross" Rather than Jesus (A.S), we have become "The Earthen Shirt" of "Our Soul" Rather than "Our Soul", that is, in our ignorance and Now in our arrogance about our ignorance We have mistakenly turned The Drama that is Now Being Acted Out on the Stage of Our Life into "us", Rather than Sitting on God's Lap as "The Audience" and letting God teach Us through the drama of the play, "What We Do Not Know", that is, through the drama that is Now Being Acted Out on the Stage, that is Now "our life", that is, all of which in truth are the Lessons that as "Our Soul" We have come here to learn, and then leave, and then return to God, sharing with God what We have learned for eternity.

Bawa.  And in this way, We have turned our memory, our experiences of what "we have done", of "where we have gone", and of "what has happened" to us, into our life, Rather than using God, First on the "outside" of us, and then within us, To Learn How to becoming "One with" the Student, to become "One with" Our Soul, before we die to the flesh, that is, To Learn How to become "One with" the One who has come to this earth world to learn about "Who We Already Are", which is "Of God", Not of "The Creation of God", Not of what the "Shirt or Cross or School" is made out of, which is the Creation of God.

Bawa.  That is, we have become caught by what God is Now Using Here, in this earth world, to teach "Our Soul" what It Needs To Learn Here, in order to leave here, with us mistakenly turning it into our life, into a life as "One with" with the Creations of God that have Now grown within us, into a life that we are Now experiencing as "us" living a life of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of us, all of which in truth is "Just Not True", all of which in truth is Just The Drama Being Acted Out on the Stage of Our Life, all of which God has given Us as "Our Lesson", that is, as Lessons for "Our Soul" as "One with" God, Not as "our life" as "One with" the Creation of God.

Bawa.  All of which is what Now falsely defines us as "separate from" God, that is, as what falsely defines us as being of "The Creation of God", Rather than "Of God", as what falsely defines us as being of "The School of God", Rather than of "Our Soul", Rather than of "The One" God sent to His School in this earth world, Rather than of The One who Learns From God How To Correctly Use this School to Turn "our" current life as "separate from" Back into "Our Life" as "One with".

Bawa.  That is, that learns How to Let Jesus (A.S.) off of His Cross, that is, How to Let the Student Pass His Exams and Graduate From His School, and Return To God, but this time with an Understanding of "Our Life" as Jesus (A.S.), as the Student, but this time with an Understanding of "Who We Already Are", this time with an Understanding of "Our Oneness", So We Will Never Loose "Our Oneness" with God Again.

Bawa.  For in truth We Are "Of God", We Are "Of Jesus (A.S.)" awaking to Himself, We are Not as we are Now Acting on the Stage of Drama, that is, We are Not our "current life" that is Now being lived out on this Stage of Drama as if we are of "The Creation of God", as if we are people "separate from" other people.

Bawa.  For Example, as if we are "Pierce or Dolores", separate from each other, and for example, as if we are people separate from "Paul and Joan", and for example, as if "Pierce and Dolores, and Paul and Joan" are "separate from" this child, when in truth "We Are All One", that is, within the heart of God within us, for in truth We are all the One Soul of God that has come to this earth world to Understanding Who We Already Are, and having Learned Our Lessons, to then Leave, and to then Return to God within Us, to share Our Understanding with God for eternity.

The Truth of Our Life - is Now hidden within the "falsehood of our life"

Bawa.  All of which is Now the "Truth of Our Life" hidden within the "falsehood of our life", like the apple tree and its fruits are all hidden within the apple seed buried within the earth, just waiting for the apple seed to germinate, and in this way, to reveal its True Life as a Tree growing in the earth, bearing Fruit, all hidden within its false life living in the earth, but like all people Not All Apple Seeds Germinate to the Truth of themselves, to the Truth hidden within themselves, Some rot in the earth and die in the earth, and then become subject to 105 million rebirths, But Never Again as an Apple Seed, Never Again as the Story of the "Oneness of the Apple Tree and its Fruits", that the apple seed came to the earth from the apple tree, to join with the earth, to tell.

Bawa.  Such is the Point of Our Life, My dearest loving Son Pierce, and My dearest loving Daughter Dolores, that is, the liberation of Our Soul from Our Cross, that is, the Student Learning and Graduating from His Earthen School, Having Learned His Lessons Correctly, all of which in truth is "One", that is, the Soul and Its Cross in truth are "One", Not "separate from", that is, the Student and His School in truth are "One", Not "separate from", as My Children mistakenly believe.

Bawa.  All of which in truth "Defines Us", that is, both The Soul and The Cross, both the Student and the School, interacting as "One" to teach "Our Soul" what "Our Soul" came here, to this earth world, to learn, Not just the Earthen Cross, as "separate from" Our Soul, Not Just the Earthen School as "separate from" the Student.

Bawa.  That is, Not just our "current life" of selfishness buried within our mind and desires living as if we are "separate from" Our Soul, living as if we are  "separate from" Jesus (A.S.), living as if we are "separate from" the Student, that is, Not just our "current life" of "separation and differences" that in truth is Now Keeping "Our Soul" a Captive of our current life of selfishness, a Captive of our current life of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of us, that is, as a Captive of our current life buried within our mind and desires.

The True Meaning of the Story of Jesus (A.S.) - that in truth the Story of Jesus (A.S.) is Both the Soul and the Cross, And How Jesus (A.S.) Got On and Gets Off of His Cross, Not just "Our Soul", for in truth all of this is Jesus (A.S.), and all of this is "Who We Are", and all of this is "One", if you like.

Bawa.  And Such is the True Meaning of the "Story of Jesus" (A.S.), That in truth Jesus (A.S.) is Both the Soul and the Cross, And How Jesus (A.S.) Got On and Gets Off of His Cross, Not just "Our Soul", and in truth all of this is Jesus (A.S.), and all of this is "Who We Are", and all of this is "One", that is, in truth "Our Soul" and "Our Cross" and "Our Wisdom" and "our ignorance" Are One, Just different Roles of the Same Thing, of the One thing, which is God, and within that is True Man, and within that is Again God, One revealing the Other, One telling the Story of the Other, the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man".

Bawa. Like Everything Within the Story of the Apple Tree Are One, that is, the earth, the sky, the apple seed buried within the earth, the apple tree growing in the earth and sky, and the apples growing on the apple tree, and the sweet taste within the mature apples, and again the apple seed, but this time a 1000 fold, are all One.

Bawa. And So Are We, That is, if We will only Start To Join as "One with" God, First on the "outside" of us, and then within us, To Let Jesus (peace be upon Him) off of His Cross, and To Let Jesus (A.S.) Come to Maturity within us, and then To Let Jesus (A.S.) Pull Us Back Into Himself, before we die to the flesh.

Bawa.  And in this way, and only in this way, with Us having successfully completed Our Duty as "His Cross", As "His School", As "His Shirt", and Then as His Wisdom, and in this way, and only in this way, with Us having successfully "Died Before Death", with Us having successfully been "Born Again", for then in truth "Jesus and Us" are One, and in this way, and only in this way, We have become "The Way", We have become "The Door" to all of the Creation of God, within God within Us, We have become their Judgment, We have become their Salvation.  Amen.

Bawa.  That is, if We will only let Our Life be about both Our Soul or Jesus (A.S.) and about Our Life as His Cross, that is, about both The Student or Jesus (A.S.) and about Our Life as His School, that is, about Jesus (peace be upon Him) as Our Soul Joining as "One with" God To Get off of His Cross, that is, about Jesus (A.S.) as The Student Joining as "One with" God To Attend and Graduate from His School, that is, about the Liberation of Our Soul by Our Wisdom, before we die to the flesh, and Not Just About us living as "His Cross", but as "separate from" Jesus (peace be upon Him), that is, Not Just About us living as "His School" or "His Shirt", but as "separate from" Jesus (A.S.).

Bawa.  That is, Not Just About "us" living as His Cross, and as the 5 nails that keep Jesus (peace be upon Him) crucified on His Cross, which in truth are "our base desires", that is, "our base desires" that keep us living on the illusory "outside" of ourselves So we can sin, that is, that keep us living a life of selfishness as if we are "separate from" Jesus (peace be upon Him), as if we are "separate from" our brothers and sisters, and as if we are "separate from" the Creation of God, all of which is "Just Not True".

Bawa.  All the while with us just talking about Jesus (A.S.), just talking about how Jesus (peace be upon Him) died for our sins, when in truth Jesus (peace be upon Him) died So We Could Sin, So We Could Become His Cross, So we could become the impure birth that keeps Jesus (peace be upon Him), as Our Pure Birth, crucified on the cross of our elemental body.

Bawa.  But We become His School of Contrast, His Cross, His Shirt So Jesus (peace be upon Him) could Join Here with God to learn from God, So Jesus (peace be upon Him) could learn about who in truth Jesus (A.S.) Already Is, which is "Of God", not of "The Shirt", not of the "School of Contrast", not of "The Cross", and not of the "5 nails", not of "our base desires", that are all keeping Jesus (peace be upon Him) crucified on His Cross.

Bawa.  And that in truth is "Who We Are", We are Jesus (peace be upon Him) on His Cross, and We are the Cross that is crucifying Jesus (peace be upon Him), We are Both, depending on Our Perspective, and We are How Jesus (A.S.) both Got On and Gets Off of His Cross, if we like, for the Choice is ours, not God's, that is, the Choice of where Jesus (A.S.) will spend eternity within Us, Either having returned to God, as God, with Us Then as the "Form of God", Or having gone to hell, to the satan, as the satan, with us Then as the "form of the satan".

Bawa.  That is, depending on Our Perspective, Either from the perspective of Jesus (peace be upon Him) who died on His Cross, who gave up His Birth and Life of Purity with faith and trust that "We would do the same", that is, that "we would die to our life of sin", So Jesus (peace be upon Him) could Again Live Without Sin, but this time with Jesus (peace be upon Him) having Understood Who He Already Is, but this time with Jesus (peace be upon Him) having successfully learned His Lessons in His School, within this First of God's Schools, which is the School of Contrast, for in truth True Understanding only occurs through Contrast.

Bawa. Or from the perspective of "us" living as His Cross, that is, with "us" as the Cross & the 5 nails that are keeping Jesus (peace be upon Him) crucified on His Cross, So we can continue to live a life of selfishness, by keeping Jesus (peace be upon Him) nailed to His Cross, all of which in truth is Now the life of Our Elemental Body and Mind, that in truth Now makes up His Cross, and His Shirt, and His School, all of which We are now falsely experiencing as "Who we are", as "Where we are", and as "What is happening" in our life, all of which in truth is made out of the Creation of God, that is, is made out of earth, fire, water, air, and ether, and the consciousness of earth, fire, water, air, and ether, the consciousness of "separation and differences", the consciousness of our mind and desires, of selfishness, or "I and you", of "mine and yours".

Bawa. And in this way, in truth "We Are All One", in truth "We Are Both Jesus (peace be upon Him), and His Cross", as well as How Jesus (A.S.) gets On & Off of His Cross, if you like, and as such, in truth "We Are All One", in truth Jesus (peace be upon Him) His Cross, and How Jesus (A.S.) gets On & Off of His Cross, which is "our mind & desire" & "Our wisdom" are "All One", if you like, not "separate from" as My Children now mistakenly believe.

Bawa. And that is the inner meaning of our current life, of the life that we are Now experiencing as "Who we are", as "Where we are", and as "What is happening" in our life, for in truth our current life is His Cross, is His Shirt, is the School of Jesus (A.S.), but Now it is being lived by us as if we are "separate from" Jesus (A.S.), as if it "belongs to us", not to Jesus (A.S.), not to Us, Stopping Jesus (peace be upon Him) from attending the "First of God's Schools", which is the "School of Contrast", In Order to Understand who in Truth He Already Is, which is "Of God", not of "The Creation of God".

Bawa.  But in truth our current life of sin, of Impurity should be Helping Jesus (A.S.), giving Him the Necessary Contrast to the Purity of the Soul, So True Understanding can occur.

Bawa. That is, if at some point in our current life, in our current life of sin, in our current life as His Cross, as His School of Contrast, before we die to the flesh, We Awaken To The Truth, "That We Are One".

Bawa. That is, We Awaken To The Truth of "Who We Already Are", that in truth "We Are Both Jesus & His Cross", and "We Are How Jesus (A.S.) Gets Off of His Cross", which is "our mind & desire" sitting down to "Our Wisdom", which is the "Presence of God", the "Word of God" for our age and for our life, all which in truth is Now "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), in whom "We are well pleased".

Our Role Now - is to die to our current life of sin, that is, to become peaceful with "our own ending", to willingly and freely End Our Life as His Cross, to willingly and freely End Our Life as His School of Contrast", So Jesus (peace be upon Him) can Now get off of His Cross, can Now Graduate from His School of Contrast, can Now Live a Life of Purity, can Live a Life Without Sin, can Live a Life without our current "separation and differences", But this time with an Understanding of His Purity, and of "our sin", this time with an Understanding of Everything that is Now "separating Jesus (A.S.) from God

Bawa. And in this way, Our Role Now is to die to our current life of sin, that is, Our Role Now is to become peaceful with "our own ending", that is, Our Role Now is to willingly and freely End Our Life as His Cross, to willingly and freely End Our Life as His School of Contrast", So Jesus (peace be upon Him) can Now get off of His Cross, So Jesus (peace be upon Him) can Now Graduate from His School of Contrast, So Jesus (peace be upon Him) can Now Start to Again Live a Life of Purity, So Jesus (A.S.) can Start to Again Live a Life Without Sin, So Jesus (A.S.) can Start to Again Live a Life without our current "separation & differences".

Bawa. But this time with an Understanding of His Purity, but this time with an Understanding of "our sin", but this time with an Understanding of Everything that is Now separating Jesus (A.S.) from God, which in truth is His Cross, which in truth is His School, which in truth is "our current" life of sin, So Jesus (peace be upon Him) will Never Be Separated From God Again, and Neither Will We.

Bawa.  For in truth, if We do this, if We use our current life in this way, then God will Most Certainly Do Everything Else Necessary to make our life truly successful in our lifetime, that is, if we truly Join as "One with" God, First on the "outside" of us, and then within us, which for your age and for your life is Now "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), that is, to Again become "One with" Jesus (A.S.), that is, to let what is Now Separating Jesus (A.S.) from God End, that is, to let your current life of sin End, then God will Do Everything Else Necessary to make your life truly successful in your lifetime.

Bawa.  And in this way, and only in this way, if you Join as "One with" Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to let Jesus (peace be upon Him) off of His Cross, to let Jesus (A.S.) Graduate from His School of Contrast, to Let Jesus (A.S.) come to a True Understanding of Who He Already Is, then and Only then We will have "Died before Death", then and Only then We will have been "Born Again".

Bawa. And in this way, and Only in this way, before we die to the flesh, allowing Jesus (A.S.) to Truly Understand that in truth He Is The Seed of God, and in truth "We" are "The Tree of That Seed", that "We" are the "Word of God made flesh" for our age and for all life, & "We" are "The Fruit of That Tree", and that God is the "Sweet Taste" of that Mature Fruit.

Bawa.  Then We Will Be Within Jesus (A.S.), as the liberated soul joined as "One with" the awakened wisdom, and within that We will be the Tree of God which in truth is Muhammad (blessing and peace be upon Him), and within that We will be the Fruit of That Tree which is Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), and within that We will be the "Sweet Taste" of that Mature Fruit which is God.

All of Which Is Now - The Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), if you like

Bawa.  All of which is Now the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Us, and with Him), if you like, that is, is those for this age who have Joined as "One with" Jesus (peace be upon Him) to become Jesus (peace be upon Him), who have then Joined as "One with" Muhammad (blessing and peace be upon Him) to become Muhammad (blessing and peace be upon Him), and who have then Joined as "One with" Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) to become Bawa Muhaiyaddeen
(Ral.), that is, to become Now
Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Us, and with Him), in your own lifetime.  Amen. Ok?.

Bawa. And in this way, and Only in this way, this is the "Straight Path", this is the "Way of the Lord", that is, "The Path", "The Way" of those for our age who have Joined as "One with" God to become "The Way", to become "The Door" for all of the Creation of God, within God within Us, and who have then Joined as '"One with" God to become "True Prayer", the Prayer of the One to the One who Is", and who have then Joined as "One with" God to become True Man, which is the Station of Man-God/God-Man, and then as True Man to Again Join as "One with" God to tell the Story of God within True Man, So in the End, there is "No Child Left Behind", So in the End, there is "Nothing Still Separating God From God".  Amen. Ok?

Bawa. That is, "The Path", "The Way" of those who have Again established a Life as "One with" God, but this time with an Understanding of "Our Oneness" So It Will Never Leave Us Again, that is, Again establishing a Life as "One with" the True Us, Again establishing a Life as "One with" all of the Creation of God, within God within Us, that is, by letting God tell and bring to Complete His Story Again, that is, the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man", but this time within Us, that is, by letting what "You Have Become" End, No matter how exalted it may appear, always Trusting in God, who in truth is Always the Next Thing For You To Become, Not what You Have Become.

Bawa. And in this way, handing back to God whatever God has handed to you, Saying to God,

      "Thank You O God".
      "No Thank You O God".
      "What's Next".

Bawa. And if you continue to do this, that is, handing back to God Everything that He places before you, Thanking Him, but No Thanking Him, and Asking for what Is Next, then after God has placed Everything before you, and you have handed it all back, then and only then, God will hand you Himself.

Bawa. All of which in truth is "The Lesson" that is exquisitely designed by God to teach "Our Soul" about "Who We Already Is", which is "Of God", not of the drama of "our life" which has Now become the "form of the lesson", that is, the form of the lesson that "Our Soul" must learn, for in truth Now "We" are the "School for the Soul", Now "We" are where the Soul has come from God to learn, to learn about "What Is Now Separating The Soul" from God, which in truth is Now "us", which in truth is Now our current life of "separation and differences", our current life of "I and you", of "mine and yours".

Bawa. But "We" are Not the Student, the "Soul is the Student", We are the School, and "We" must invite "Our Soul" into Its School of Contrast, by Joining as "One with" God, with "Our Wisdom", First on the "outside" of you and then within you.

Letting the Child of Light "Emerge", Which Is Our Next Life - that is, before we die to the flesh, emerge from within the "child of darkness", which is our current life

Bawa. And in this way, and Only in this way, letting the "Child of Light" Emerge, which is Our Next Life, before We Die To The flesh, emerge from within the "child of darkness", all of which is "our current life", like the apple seed coming to an End, before it rots and dies in the earth, having realized, understood, accepted, and Joined as "One with" the "Truth of Itself", letting "Truth surrender to Truth", So the apple tree hidden within it can Start to Begin.

Bawa. That is, with You Joining as "One with" Your Wisdom to let Your "Child of Light" come forward, as your "child of darkness" leaves, a "child of darkness" which is Now giving you the illusion of a life of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of yourself, that is, a life that keeps you living as if you are "separate from" Jesus (A.S.), as if you are "separate from" each other, and as if you are "separate from" the Creation of God, within God within you, all of which in truth is "Just Not True".  Amen. Ok?.

Copy of Sharing From Robert Riggins

Long ago and far away, in a land that time forgot,
Before the days of Dylan, or the dawn of Camelot.
There lived a race of innocents, and they were you and me,

For Ike was in the White House in that land where we were born,
Where navels were for oranges, and Peyton Place was porn.

We learned to gut a muffler, we washed our hair at dawn,
We spread our crinolines to dry in circles on the lawn.

We longed for love and  romance, and waited for our Prince,
And Eddie Fisher married Liz, and no one's seen him since.
 
We danced to 'Little Darlin,' and sang to 'Stagger Lee'
And cried for Buddy Holly in the Land That Made Me  Me.

Only girls wore earrings then, and 3 was one too many,
And only boys wore flat-top cuts, except for Jean McKinney.

And only in our wildest dreams did we  expect to see
A boy named George with Lipstick, in the Land That Made Me Me.

We fell for Frankie Avalon, Annette was oh, so nice,
And when they made a movie, they never made it twice.

We didn't have a Star Trek Five, or Psycho Two and Three,
Or Rocky-Rambo Twenty in the Land That Made Me Me.

Miss Kitty had a heart of gold, and Chester had a limp,
And Reagan was a Democrat whose co-star was a chimp.

We had a Mr. Wizard, but not a Mr. T , And Oprah couldn't 

talk, yet, in the Land That Made Me Me.

We had our share of heroes, we never thought they'd go,
At least not Bobby Darin, or Marilyn  Monroe.

For youth was still eternal, and life was yet to be,
And Elvis was forever in the Land That Made Me Me.

We'd never seen the rock band that was Grateful to be Dead,
And Airplanes weren't named Jefferson, and Zeppelins were not Led.

And Beatles lived in gardens then, and Monkees lived in trees,
Madonna was a virgin in the Land That Made Me Me.

We'd never heard of microwaves, or telephones in cars,
And babies might be bottle-fed, but they weren't grown in jars.

And pumping iron got wrinkles out, and  'gay' meant fancy-free,
And dorms were never coed in the Land That Made Me Me.

We hadn't seen enough of jets to talk about the lag,
And microchips were what was left at the bottom of the bag.

And Hardware was a box of nails, and bytes came from a flea,
And rocket ships were fiction in the Land That Made Me Me.

Buicks came with portholes, and side shows came with freaks,
And bathing suits came big enough to cover both your cheeks.

And Coke came just in bottles, and skirts below the knee,
And Castro came to power near the Land That Made Me Me.

We had no Crest with Fluoride, we had no Hill Street Blues,
We had no patterned pantyhose or Lipton herbal tea
Or prime-time ads for condoms in the Land That Made Me Me.

There were no golden arches, no Perrier to chill,
And fish were not called Wanda, and cats were not called Bill.

And middle-aged was 35 and old was forty-three,
And ancient were our parents in the Land That Made Me Me.

But all things have a season, or so we've heard them say,
And now instead of Maybelline, we swear by Retin-A.

They send us invitations to join AARP,
We've come a long way, baby, from the Land That Made Me Me.

So now we face a brave new world in  slightly larger jeans,
And wonder why they're using smaller print in magazines.

And we tell our children's children of the way it used to be,
Long ago and far away in the Land That Made Me Me.

About The "Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen Mailing List"

Bawa.  If you would like to be added to the "Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen Mailing List"
please sent "Us" your request to either of the following E-mail addresses: "
Bawa786@aol.com" or "Muhaiyaddeen786@aol.com", and please put the following as the E-mail Subject: "Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen Mailing List - Please add my name to your list". 

Bawa.  And if you like (optional), then in the body or "Text of the E-mail" please tell "Us" a little bit about yourself, if you like, that is, about your life in the world, and of the world within you, which in truth is your life in the "presence of the satan", which in truth is your "mind and desire", which in truth is your current life of falsehood and darkness, and about your life in the "Presence of God", which in truth is your wisdom, which in truth is your "Next Life", Here and Now, of Truth and Light, if you like, for in truth The Choice is yours, not God, that is, the Choice to continue living as the "presence of the satan" or to join with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to become the "Presence of God", and the "Word of God", Here and Now.

Bawa.  And about how best "We" can join with you in this "Grand Endeavor",
that is, in this "Grand Endeavor" of "you" becoming "You"
, that is, of "You" moving from "your falsehood and darkness" to "Your Truth and Light", Here and Now, that is, of "You" moving from being the "presence of the satan" and the "word of satan", to becoming the "Presence of God" and the "Word of God", Here and Now. 

Bawa.  For example, by "Us" sitting together at the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship (always the very best way), letting Bawa "Cure Himself of us" or by "Us" Instant Messaging in "God's Presence", or by "Us" talking on the Phone in "God's Presence", that is, for "Us" to do as Jesus (peace be upon Him) told "Us" to do, over 2000 years ago, and as Muhammad (blessing and peace be upon Him) also told "Us" to do over 1400 years ago, and as Qutb Muhaiyaddeen Abdul-Qadir al-Jilani (may God be pleased with Him) also told "Us" to do over 1000 years ago, and Now in "Our" age as
Bawa Muhaiyaddeen
(may God be pleased with Him) has Again told "Us" to do, and "Right Now" as Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us)
is Again telling "Us" to do
, that is,

          "If two of you come together in My Name, I will be there."

Bawa.  That is, to sit in the "Presence of God" in this "Grand Endeavor", that is, in this "Grand Endeavor" of "You" Letting God Again Happen, but this time within you, that is, in this "Grand Endeavor" of "You" letting God Again become One with God, but this time within you, but this time with "You" becoming the Understanding of "Your Oneness", so it will never leave "You" again.

Bawa.  That is, in this "Grand Endeavor" of "You" letting God within you "Cure Himself of you", to Cure Himself of "you" Now living as the "presence of the satan" and as the "word of satan" in the "heaven of satan", that is, to Cure Himself of "you" Now living as "separate from" the "Presence & Word of God" in the "Heaven of God", Here and Now, within your Light "Room" or Heart or Mind, that is, to Cure Himself of your current state, that is, in this "Grand Endeavor" of "You" letting God within you remove from Himself all of what is Now "separating God from God", all of which in truth is Now "you", First on the "outside" of you and then within you.

Bawa.  That is, of "You" letting God Again discard from Himself "the satan", all of which in truth is Now "you" living on the illusory "outside" of yourself, all of which in truth is Now the "kingdom of the satan", the "heaven of the satan", within your dark "room" or heart or mind, all of which in truth is Now "you" living as if you are "separate from" God within you, as if you are "separate from" your brothers and sisters, and as if you are "separate from" the Creation of God, within God within you, all of which is "Just Not True".

Bawa.  So in the End, if you like, Only God Is There within you, within your "Room" or Heart or Mind, as "One With", that is, as "The One" to all of the Creation of God, within God within you, for in truth this is the "Way of the Lord" of "John the Baptist" and of Jesus (peace be upon Them), over 2000 years ago, and this is the "Straight Path" of the Prophet Muhammad (blessing and peace be upon Him), over 1400 years ago, not "you" living on the illusory "outside" of yourself as if you are "separate from" God, and from Everyone and Everything.

Bawa.  That is, Not "you" living as an "Associate or Helper of God", when in truth "Wahdahu la sharik lahu" or "God is One without Associates to Him", that is, not "you" living as the "Enemy of the soul", not "you" living as the "child of darkness", not "you" living in truth as the "child of the satan", not "you" living in truth as the "form or manifestation of the satan", animated with your soul, living in the "heaven of the satan", which in truth is Now the illusory "outside" of you, which is Now "you" keeping Jesus (peace be upon Him) crucified on His Cross, day in and day out, moment by moment,
so "you can sin"
, So in truth "you" can continue to live your current illusory life of "separation and differences", of "selfishness, of "I and you", of "mine and yours", on the illusory "outside" of yourself, as "separate from" God, and as "separate from" Everyone and Everything Else, Until that is what you then get for eternity, Because "That Is What You Want".

Bawa.  So Start to Stop living like this, as "separate from" in your ignorance, and Now in your arrogance about your ignorance, and Instead Come Sit with God for your age and for your life, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, that is,
come sit
with Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us),
First
on the "outside" of you and then within you, that is, come sit in the "Presence of God", and hear the "Word of God" as it "Comes from God", First on the "outside" of you and then within you, So "You" too become the "Presence of God", and the "Word of God" for your age and for your life.

Bawa.  So "You" too become the "Word of God made flesh", So "You" too become the "Door" and the "Way" for your age and for all life, "First on the "outside" of you and then within you, for in truth, then God will do "Everything Else" necessary to make "Your Life", and all life within you, that is, within God within you, if they like, and for a little while on the "outside" of you, the life of your brothers and sisters, if they like, truly successfrul in your lifetime, as this child has Now learned to do.  Amen. Ok?

Bawa.  And then God will do "Everything Else" necessary to make your life, and all life, truly successful in your lifetime, for in truth this is Now God's Promise, this is Now
God's Guarantee
for your age and for your life, if you like, that is,

          "If you are not there, God will be there"

Bawa.  For such is the true Exaltedness of Your Own Life, if you like, that is, if you will only First truly accept the Very Same Exaltedness within "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with HIm), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, in whom "We are well pleased", and Start to treat him accordingly.

Bawa.  Only then will any of My Children reach God, for as "We" taught My
Children when "We" were living in the world,

          "You will only find God within the Exaltedness of your own life".

Bawa.  And this is all any of My Children Now Need, that is, to truly learn how to make your own life Exalted, that is, by learning how "Not to be there, So God can be there", as this child has Now learned to do, not any of the current silliness all of My Children are currently doing, like "you" doing anything, not matter how exalted it might seem to be, for in truth it is all crazyness and is only leading you to an eternal hell within you as "separate from" God within you, and that is for sure.

Bawa.  Please realize this Now, My Dearest Loving Children, while you still can, while you can still do something about it, that is, please realize without the slightest doubt that this is all any of My Children Now Need, this truth about "God, and You, and the Creation of God", this truth of "Your Oneness", Now coming for the "Very Last Time" from God within all of My Children, that is, from the heart of "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with HIm), in whom "We are well pleased".

Bawa.  Please realize this Now, My Dearest Loving Children, that this is all you Now Need, not anything that came before, in previous ages, and not anything that even truly came from God before in previous ages, for in truth, Now, for this age, for this age of the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us), and Now for your life in this age, and for all of the lives Now within you, and for a little while on the "outside" of you, for the lives of your brothers and sisters, this is Now all you will Ever Need, if you like, that is, all you will Ever Need to truly become successful in your lifetime, and that is for sure.  Amen. Ok?

Bawa. For the Choice is Now yours, not God's, that is, the Choice to accept this
"
Last Grand Offer" of God, or not, and if you truly do, then to literally "Become It", that is, to become the "Presence & Word of God" for your age and for all life, by truly accepting & sitting in the "Presence & Word of God" for your age and for your life, or not, First on the "outside" of you and then within you.

Bawa.  That is, by joining as "One with" "Our" dearest loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us), in whom "We are well pleased", or not, as often as you can, as much as you can, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, in order to become "Our" dearest loving Son or Daughter, Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us), in whom "We are well pleased", for the benefit of all of the Creation of God, within God within you, and for a little while on the "outside" of you, for the benefit of your brothers and sisters, as this child has Now learned to do.  Thank you.  Enjoy.  Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. Amen.
