Dr. Carroll Nash, Parapsychologist: Is there anything that Bawa Muhaiyaddeen would like to tell me that would be of benefit to me or to other people?

M. R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen:There is the truth of God—God’s power.This truth cannot be destroyed by anything.This power is God’s beauty.It is His qualities, His justice, and His peacefulness.It is the love and compassion which He bestows without ego, without the ‘I’.Selflessly, He bestows His grace to all, keeping nothing for Himself.This is the power which He bestows upon all creation as tolerance, patience, peacefulness, and compassion.It is without anger.It bestows all nourishment and sustenance to each of God’s creations, according to its needs and wants.It is our duty, our sole duty, to take the qualities of God within ourselves.We must acquire the three thousand qualities of God, which are His divine power.

If you can train a tiger and sharpen its intellect, you may be able to teach it not to attack and kill other lives.If you can train it to eat nothing other than the food it is given, then it will no longer leap upon other creatures and kill them.Similarly, if we begin to imbibe only the qualities of God, we will not cause harm to any of God’s creations.It is His qualities that we must first learn and acquire within ourselves and then teach to others.

God has no form.He has no shadow.There is nothing in comparison to Him.He has neither wife nor child.He is neither darkness nor light.He is not like the sun, nor the moon, nor the stars.God is one power, a power which is able to control and subdue all other powers.From the single atom to all of the universes, this is a power which is intimately mixed within all things.It has nothing, no shadow, no aid.It is the One who is alone, the Original One.It is a point, a power, which has neither beginning nor end.There is no language for it, nor does it have a religion.It does not possess a race; there are no colors in it, no black or white.It is a power, a point which is within every creation.

It has no mouth, no tongue to speak, yet through our mouths that power is speaking.It has no eyes, yet it is observing through our eyes.It has no ears, yet it replies to the sounds that we hear with our own ears.It has no nose, but it senses fragrance through our sense of smell.It has no hands, but that power makes our hands the agency for giving and receiving.It has no feet or legs, but it walks throughout all the universes.Such is that power.

The mind cannot see this power.The mind has the form of a demon.Earth, fire, water, air, and ether are the form of this demon.It is the essence of the elements, the form of spirits or vapors, the form of desire and illusion.Therefore, mind and desire cannot see or pray to God.God is that treasure which transcends mind and desire.If we want to see that treasure and realize it, then we have to understand ourselves.Only wisdom can understand that treasure, and if we want to realize God, then we must acquire His qualities within ourselves.Those qualities create a different form within us, the form of His beauty.God can never be seen.It is God’s qualities which are His beauty, and the light which radiates through those qualities is His power.Those qualities are His form and that light is His power.That is God.
