Ok? ============================================================= Text of Version 01 - with an expanded summary for some Version 01 Topics 01. Please Try to be Patient - with what we have shared with you in this Spiritual Letter, about the "truth of us", and about the "truth of God" within us My dearest loving brothers Tom and Aron, please try to be patient with what we have shared with you in this Spiritual Letter, about the truth of us, and about the truth of God within us, as we know this provides a very different perspective about us, about our current life, that is, about the "outside" of us, and about God within us. A very different perspective about our current life, about our source, which is God within us, and about the potential within each of us to truly return to our source, through our faith and trust in God within us, through our using God within us, to get to God within us. That is, through our joining in partnership with God within us, to find and become "One with" the "Gift of God" for our age, and through this "Life and Teaching of God" for our age, this "Word of God" for our age, both within us and on the "outside" of us, for the "Children of God" for our age, to become truly successful in our lifetime. For the "Children of God" for our age, which in truth is all of us living in our age, if we truly want it, if the true intention for our life within us, not on the "outside" of us, for our soul life within us, is to again become "One with" God within us, before we die to the flesh. And in this way, to join in partnership with God within us to close down the world of hell within us, which is the world of illusory creation within us, and to close down the world of jinns within us, which is the world of false destruction or death within us, and to close down the world of fairies within us, which is the world of illusory life within us, the illusory life of all of the of darkness and evil within us, that in our ignorance we have allowed to grow within us, all of which makes up the 7 hells within us, the worlds below our neck, which is our chest, our stomach, and below our waist. In this way, closing down the real but "false inside" of us, and opening the "true inside" of us, which are the 7 heaven within us, all existing above our neck, with us living in our heart, the handful of earth that God placed within us, as Adam (peace be upon Him) within us, as the true boundary between the two, between heaven and hell within us, between good and bad within us, and between truth and falsehood within us, which is the "Wealth of the Three Worlds" within us, which in the Islamic tradition is called the "Mubarakat" within us. Which is our heart within us, which is the "mim" of Muhammad (blessing and peace of God be upon Him) within us, which is currently in hot dispute within us, between the 7 heavens and the 7 hells within us, which is the true Jerusalem within us, and the true conflict of the Middle East within us, all of which is truly within us, and can only be truly resolved within us, within each of us, not on the "outside" of us. That is, if at least one of us, before the "outside" of all us is destroyed by at least one of us, will only willingly and peacefully let the illusory world on the "outside" of us, gradually come to an end within us, both within us and on the "outside" of us, establishing the state of "Perfected Faith" within us, which is the true "Shaikh-Disciple Relationship" within us, which is the light and form of "Perfected Faith" or Iman within us, which is Moses (peace be upon Him) within us, the 96 potentialities of man within us. In this way, through the "Perfected Faith" of Abraham (peace be upon Him) within us, being peace and contentment in His "Pit of Fire" within us, and of His two Sons within us, of Ishmael and Isaac (peace be upon Them) within us, realizing the "True Exaltedness of Self Sacrifice", of dying to the "outside" of us so God can truly live again within us, which is Jesus (peace be upon Him) within us, which is the true lineage of both Judaism, Christianity, and Islam within us, as "One" within us, not as "separate" on the "outside" of us. In this way, having overcome the 36 potentialies within man within us, which in truth is our "current illusory drama" of life on the "outside" of us, a drama of "separation and differences", of "mind and yours", of "I and you", of sin or "selfishness", on the "outside" of us, and of the real but incomplete lives of darkness and evil within us, that we have allowed to grow within us, in our ignorance, which have now become in maturity the real but "false inside" of us, which now rule over us as the 9 openings of our elemental body, with "God's Permission", until we "See God and Steady God" within us, if we like, allowing God to then "Cure Himself of us", of "us" living on the "outside" of us, as if we are "separate from" God within us, all of which is not true. Then to re-open the world of souls within us, which is our original pure birth, and life, and consciousness within us, our 6th level of consciousness within us, which is the wisdom surrounding our soul within us, or God consciousness or wisdom within us, which teaches, analyzes, and controls everything within us, having awakened, liberated, and become "One with" our soul within us, which in truth is Jesus (peace be upon Him) within us, is the "Light of the Purity of God' within us, the Light of man within God within us, which is our awakened wisdom within us have liberated our original pure birth and life within us, which is Jesus (peace be upon Him) within us, from our impure birth and life within us, from the "Enemy of our soul", both within us and on the "outside" of us. From the "Enemy of the soul" within us, which in truth is "us" living on the "outside" of us, is "us" living an illusory life, a dream life, of "separation and differences" on the "outside" of us, in our ignorance, as if we are "separate from" God within us, which in truth is not true, and which in truth is the flower of the "triple dirt" within us, of the lives of arrogance, karma, illusion, mind and desire, which form the lives of darkness and evil within us, that have grown like weeds within a beautiful flower garden within us, in our ignorance, and that now in maturity rule over us as the 9 openings of our elemental body Amen. And then, if we like, our awakened wisdom after liberating our soul, by pulling out the 5 nails of "our desire" to live on the "outside" of us, and sin, and having joined as "One with" our liberated soul, goes in search, finds, and becomes "One with" the "Light of our wisdom", which is the "body of the soul" within us, the form of grace within us, in order to open the Kingdom of God within us. And in this way, for God within us to again becoming "One with" God within us, or at least truly start up again this journey of God within us back into God within us, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us, on the "Path of God" within us. Using God within us, if we like, not what God has discarded within us, that is, using our awakened wisdom, our liberated soul, and the light of our wisdom within us, if we like, and not using the current "us" on the illusory "outside" of us, not using the "flower of the triple dirt" within us, and doing this, or at least truly starting it, before we die to the flesh, so God within us can then "Do everything else", in order for God within us to disappear back into God within us, and "We will be within it", as the Witness, as the Witness of God, and what God is doing within us, which is revealing God to God within us, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us. Amen. And my dearest loving brothers, Tom and Aron, all of this is most certainly true within us. This is what we must join in partnership with God within us to realize, at this point in "Our Story", without the slightest doubt, if we are to truly become successful in our lifetime. We must realize this, and realize that God has truly given each of us, that is, all of us living in this age, everything necessary for this truth of us, and this truth of God within us, to germinate and come to maturity within us, which includes the ability to realize, understand, accept, and join in partnership with this truth of us, and with this truth of God within us, if we like, that is, to join in partnership with God within us, to bring it to completion within us. So it all comes down to the following. 1) What do we want to do with it, that is, with the right, the good, and the truth of us, now that we have heard about it. 2) And what do we want to do with it, that is, with the wrong, the bad, and the falsehood of us, now that we have heard about it. For the choice is ours, not God, but in truth only God within us can truly do anything with the "right and wrong", the "good and bad", and with the "truth and falsehood", that He has lovingly and ever so patiently placed within each of us, as the "Wealth of the Three Worlds" within us, as the 7 heavens and the 7 hells within us, which in truth is the "Wealth of the Three Worlds" within us, of the "World of souls" within us, "This earth world or dunya" within us, and the "Here after or akhirah" within us, not "us" as "separate from" God within us, because in truth we have not come here for the wealth, but rather for the understanding that can be obtained by joining in partnership with God to experience that wealth. For we have come here, not to get something, but rather to understand who we "Already are", and having understood this, to then leave here, and return to who we "Already are", sharing this understanding with who we "Already are", with God within us for eternity, and "understanding only occurs through contrast", through the contrast within each of the "Three Worlds", between the 7 heavens and the 7 hells. Ok? Something to certainly think about, Yes? So what are we to do, and the answer is so very simple, it has to be, if any of this is to truly happen within us, so simple indeed that the answer immediately reveal the only problem in the way, the only fly in the ointment, which is our ego, with is the "idea" or thought that "we exist" as "separate from" God within us, and reveals the solution, to join in partnership with God within us to destroy the ego, for once it is gone, God is there. For in truth, as our dear Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) within us, and God within Him, teach us for our age, and now on the "outside" of us, as His Children are teaching us right now, in this Spiritual Letter, and in all of the material in the "On-line Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Library" (www.Bawa.homestead.com), the following, "If you are there God is not there, and if God is there you are not there". And as we shared earlier, "Man is God in the forgetting of himself." Such is the limitation of an "ego oriented life", of a life living on the "outside" of us, as if, we are "separate from" God within us. It has nowhere to go, except to end, either peacefully having realized the truth of us, and the truth of God within us, that in truth, "We are One", that is, "us", and God within us, and True Man within God within us, are all One, like an apple seed, the apple tree, and the apple fruits, are all one, One within the other as One, One revealing the Other within us, as it disappears within the One being revealed, only to appear again from within the Other, in the next cycle, in the next cycle of the "AppleTree-Apple/Apple-AppleTree, or in our case, the next cycle of "God-Man/Man-God". It is truly this simple. That is, if "you are there" as "separate from" God within us, then in truth "God is not there", God cannot be there, because God is One, God is the Truth, the truth that "There is nothing other than God" within us, the truth that "Only God exists" within us, and the truth that "God is One" within us. And if "God is there", as "One with" us, and with "us" as "One with" God within us, then in truth, "we are not there", that is, the "we" as "separate from" God within us, is then not there, because when we give up the ego, in partnership with God within us, when we give up the illusory "us" and the illusory "outside" of us, which in truth is the real but "false inside" of us, in partnership with God within us, then God will then "Cure Himself of us", of "us" as "separate from" God, because then, "We no longer exist", we no longer exist as "separate from" God within us, and God can then discard it again from Himself, as He did before to become God within us, but t his time discarding it from within Himself within us. And in this way, if we just make this small step in our life, and truly turn back to God within us, as our life, as our faith, as our truth, as our religion, as our Prophet, as our everything, and let God gradually pull the soul within us, the 6 life within us, the light life within us, which in truth is Jesus (peace be upon Him) within us, then God will do "Everything Else", to make our life truly successful in our lifetime. This is "God's Promise", this is "God's Guarantee" for our age. And when He has finished what He has started within us, a very, very long time ago, then "We will be within it", as the Witness, as the Witness of the telling and the bringing to completion of the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, a Story which in truth we have come to this earth world, to join as "One with" this earth world, with the Creation of God within us, to tell. That is, to tell and bring to completion within us in partnership with God within us, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God (which is this earth world or dunya or School of Contrast) within us, and for the benefit of all of the Creation of True Man (which is the hereafter or akhirah or School of Light) within us. Amen. And this is the truth for our age. May we all know it now, and start to act accordingly, allowing our soul to again become "One with" God within us, before we die to the flesh, that is, before we physically die to the "outside" of us, and before at least one of us prematurely destroys the "outside" of us, for all of us, which is also a very real possibility in our age. May God help us all. Amen. In this way, what God has given to us is everything necessary for "Us", which is "us" joined in partnership with God within us, everything necessary to make our life truly successful in our lifetime, that God has given to us as part of His incomparable love for us, and of His undiminishing grace within us, which is Himself within us, and the "Seed of Himself" within us, buried within the Creation of God within us, and everything necessary, if we like, to allow that seed to germinate within us, within the Creation of God within us, within the "Earth of God' within us, and in this way, to reveal the "Tree of God" within us, and the "Fruits of God" on that Tree, and again the "Seed of God" within those Fruits, but this time a 1000 fold. Amen. And this is where God is, within us, within the wisdom surrounding our soul, and this is where our soul is, our 6th life is, as the "Seed of God" buried within the Creation of God within us, on the forehead of Adam (peace be upon Him) within us, and this is where all of the "Stuff of God" is, within God within us, including all of the 124,000 Heavenly Beings, Prophets, and Lights of God within God within us, that God has lovingly and patiently sent into the world on the "outside" of us, to teach us "what we do not know", to show us by example, who we "Already are", so we can do as They (peace be upon Them) did, which is to reveal God within Themselves (may God be pleased with all of His Prophets). Amen. Not for them become someone or something that we worship as "separate from" our selves, not to put another layer between us and God within us, which in truth is just the opposite of why They came in to the world, that is, to bear Witness of God within Them, and teach us how to do the same, before we die to the flesh. This is why They came into the world, over and over again, to all of the people of the world, in each age, as "Fingers Pointing To God" within us, within all of us, if we like, so we could also become "Fingers Pointing To God" within us, so we could also become the "Light of God" to the world for our age, for the benefit of everyone living in the world in our age, and doing all of this, or at least truly starting to do it, in partnership with God within us, before we die to the flesh, if we like, that is, if that is what we want, if the true intention for our life within us, for our soul life, is to again become "One with" God within us, before we die to the earth. May we all know this now, and start to act accordingly. Amen. And in this way, this is where God placed our soul, this is where God planted the "Seed of Himself", within us, within the Creation of God within us, which in truth is the "Earth of God" within us, or Adam (peace be upon Him) within us, and this is where God hid Himself within us, within the wisdom or divine consciousness of God surrounding our soul within us, which is our 6th level of wisdom within us, which in truth is Moses (peace be upon Him) within us, is the Qutbiyyat of God or the Holy Spirit or the Muhaiyaddeen of God within us, which is the wisdom within us which teaches, analyzes, and controls everything within us, if we like. And once awakened within us, if we lie, our awakened wisdom will liberate our soul, will liberate our original pure birth and life within us, which is Jesus (peace be upon Him) within us, from our impure birth and life within us, which is "us" on the "outside" of us, which is our current life of "separation and differences" that we are currently living with our dearest loving brothers and sisters, in the world that we see in our collective ignorance as existing on the "outside" of us, but which in truth is within us. But which in truth are the lives of darkness and evil that in our ignorance we have allowed to grow within us, and which are now ruling over us as the 9 openings of our elemental body, with God's Permission, until we "See God and Steady God" within us, if we like, allowing God to then "Cure Himself of us", of "us" as "separate from" Him, because when we join with the "Gift of God" for our age, with the "Life and Teaching of God" for our age, with the "Word of God" for our age, for the "Children of God" for our age, we will most definitely "See God" within us, and "Steady God" within us. And when we do this, when we join in partnership with God within us, to "See God and Steady God' within us, then if we like, God will most definitely "Cure Himself of us", of "us" as "separate from" Him, without "separating us" from Him, without "separating us" as "One with" God within us, for when our soul has been liberated from our impure birth and life, that is, then Jesus (peace be upon Him) has been removed from His Cross within us, which is our current life of sin, of selfishness, on the "outside" of us, and when God has then discard the "illusory outside" of us, and the "false inside" of us, from Himself, without discarding "us", because now we are within God within us. Because this is where we end up within God within us, before we die to the flesh, and this is how we end up within God within us, before we die to the flesh, when we join in partnership with God within us, in our current state of "separation from" God within us, to allow our awakened wisdom to liberate and becomes "One with" our soul within us, by pulling out the 5 nails of "our desire" to live on the "outside" of us and sin, allowing our soul to then become again "One with" God within us, and allowing the "illusory outside" of us, and the real but "false inside" of us, to come peacefully to an end, or at least truly start to end, before we die to the flesh, then "We will be within it". Amen. And in this way, we need to ask us the following question, that is, "What we want to do with what we have in our ignorance grown within us, and in our ignorance that we now see as existing on the "outside" of us?" For this is the true question of our life, not whether we will go to heaven or hell, which is really just a distraction from the reality of our current life, that what we are currently telling God within us, that we want for eternity, is hell, is an eternal life as "separate from" God within us, because in truth there are only two Choices, God or hell, not three Choices as some would have us believe, so we can continue living a life of sin in the world on the "outside" of us, and not stop all of useless "working for wages to get into some illusory heaven within us, when we die to the flesh", all of which is not true. Rather than starting the true useful work of our life, which is to "join in partnership with God" within us, before we die to the flesh, to allow our soul to again become "One with" God within us, and if we do, then when They are One, "We will be within it", as the Witness, as the Witness of God completing what God started within us, a very, very long time ago, which is to reveal God to God within us, or before we die to the flesh, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us. Amen. For in truth we only have two Choices, and that is an eternal life as "One with" God within us, or an eternal life as "separate from" God within us, and the Choice is ours, not God's And what we have grown within us in ignorance is the real but "false inside" of us, which we in our ignorance only currently see as the "outside" of us, as "us" and our dearest loving brothers and sisters living a life of "separation and differences" in the world that we see in our collective ignorance as existing on the "outside" of us, all of which is not true, and which is only leading us to an eternal life as "separate from" God within us. For example, if we choose to accept this Spiritual Letter as in truth, "our own life speaking to us", as God within us all speaking to all of the Children of God for our age, and not just the ramblings of this fool, as truly our "last chance" to get it right before we die to the "outside" of us, and before at least one of us prematurely destroys the "outside" of us, for all of us, which is also a very real possibility in our age, then "God will do everything else", and then our life will become successful in our lifetime. This is "God's Promise", this is "God's Guarantee" for our age. For as our dear Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased within Him) within us, and God within Him, teach us for our age, and now on the "outside" of us, as His Children (may God be pleased with each of Us) are teaching us right now, if we like, both in "Spiritual Letter 72" (www.SpiritualLetter071. homestead.com), and in all of the other material in the "On-line Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Library" (www.Bawa.homestead.com), and as shared earlier in this document, "Man is God in the forgetting of himself". My dearest loving brothers Tom and Aron, this is the true "point of our life", that we have come here to this earth world to learn, that in truth we are not what we are currently experiencing in our ignorance on the "outside" of us, but rather we are in truth "what is within us", as an apple seed buried within the earth is not the earth it is buried within, but is the apple seed, and is "what is hidden within it". In a similar way, we in truth are the "seed of something else" buried within the "earth of God" within us, that is, we are the "Seed of God" buried within the Creation of God within us, as the apple seed buried within the earth, is an "apple seed" not the elemental lives surrounding it within the earth, lives of earth, fire, water, air, and ether or colors, it is the seed of the "apple tree" and its "apple fruits" hidden within us, and again the apple seed, the apple seeds hidden within the sweet taste of the mature apple, but this time appearing a 1000 fold. But until it, until the apple seed buried within the earth, realizes the "truth about itself" and the truth about "what is hidden" within it, and joins with it, as "who it is", and as "where it is", and as "what is happening" it its life, that in truth it is the "apple fruit happening" within the "apple tree happening" within the earth that is buried within, until then, it believes, the apple seed buried within the earth, truly believes in its ignorance, as we currently truly believe in our ignorance, that it is what is on the "outside" of it. And truly believes that's its primary work, in order to survive, as we currently believe, that in order to survive it has to somehow protect itself from that very same "outside" of itself, that is, to protect itself from the earth that it is buried within, to protect itself from being destroyed by the earth surrounding it. And in this way, the apple seed, like each of us, has a covering over it, protecting it from the earth surrounding it, from being destroyed by the "outside" of itself, which we can see with close examination, as a separate covering over each of the two halves of the apple seed, just like what is now covering the true value hidden within each of us, which is our mind and desire, just like what is now covering our soul life within us, covering the "Seed of God" within us, from the "outside" of us, which is what has grown within us, in our ignorance, right out of the "outside" of us, which is current consciousness of ignorance, which is our mind and desire, always acting like they are protecting us from the "outside" of us, but all the while leading us to hell, to an eternal life as "separate from" God within us. Such is the state of the apple seed buried within the earth, before it realizes the truth of itself, and the truth of what is hidden within it, as such is the state of each of us, buried within the Creation of God within us, seeing everything on the "outside" of us through our mind and desire, that is, before we, like the apple seed, become ready, ready to hear, and ready to either accept or reject, the truth hidden within us, ready to realize the truth of ourselves, and the truth of what is hidden within us, that naturally emerges from within us, like this Spiritual Letter, when we are ready to hear this truth, which is the truth of us, and the truth of God within us. And in this way, when the apple seed buried within the earth is ready, just like each of us now living in the world today are now ready, that it, ready to realize, to understand, to accept, and to join as "One with" the truth of ourselves, and of the truth of what is hidden within us, and ready to either accept or reject this truth, then quite naturally, this truth will emerge from within us, as it quite naturally emerges from within the apple seed, from within the apple seed buried within the earth, before it rots in the earth and eventually dies in the earth. In this way, giving the apple seed the opportunity, if it likes, if it chooses to, as we are right now being given the opportunity with this Spiritual Letter, to either germinate or not, that is, to either join with the earth that it is buried within, to germinate, and to reveal what is hidden within it, which is the apple tree, and its fruits, and again the apple seeds, or not, and if not, to then rot in the earth, and eventually die in the earth, only to be re-born 105 million times, but never again as the apple seed, as the story of the "Oneness of the apple tree and its fruits", that it came from the apple tree, and from the fruits of that tree, to join as "one with" the earth, to tell. Never again as that. And so can we, if we like, we too can germinate, and reveal the truth hidden within us, if we like, we too can join as "One with" our earth, which is the Creation of God within us, to allow God within us, and True Man within God within us, to tell the story of the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God and of True Man within us. That is, if the true intention for our life within us, for our soul life, for the light life buried within the 5 elemental lives within us, buried within the impure birth and life within us, that is now covering the original pure birth and life within us, before we die to the flesh, if the true intention for our life within us, for our soul life, is to again become "One with" God within us, before we die to the flesh, rather than continue to try and live a life of sin, a life of "separation and differences", a life of "selfishness" on the outside of us, as if we are "separate from" God within us, all of which is not true. Or not, or rot in mind and desire, in our earth, and eventually die in our earth, and become subject to 105 million rebirths, but never again as the "Seed of God" within us, never again as the story of the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, that we came from God within us, and from True Man within God within us, to become "One with" the Creation of God within us, with the "Earth of God" within us, to tell. Never again as that. So now the choice is yours, each of you, to make the next move, and to use your dearest loving brother Louie, or Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler), to help you in any way that he can, for in truth "he belongs to you", "he is you", if you like, as "Bawa" belongs to this child, as "Bawa" is this child", if he likes. For such is the true nature of the true "Shaikh-Disciple Relationship", which is "Oneness" or "Unity", that each of us must join in partnership with God within us to establish, to establish between ourselves and God within us, both on the "inside" and on the "outside" of us, or at least truly start it up, before we die to the flesh, so God can then "Do everything else", so God within us can finish His journey back into God within us, along the "Path of God" within us, having completed His duty within us, like the rain falling back into the ocean, having completed its duty, again becoming the ocean, no longer existing as the rain, as "separate from" the ocean. Amen. For in truth, Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen, is the name of each of the Children of God for our age, when we awaken to the truth of us, and to the truth of God within us, when we realize, understand, accept, and join as "One with" the truth of us, and as "One with" the truth of God within us, and gradually, ever so gradually, by joining in partnership with God within us, in each breath, in each prayer, by establishing the "Presence of God" within us before we "say or do" anything on the "outside" of us, in this way, allowing God to reveal God to God within us, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us, and allowing True Man within God within us, to reveal True Man to True Man within us, for the benefit of all of the Creation of True Man within us, in this way, revealing the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, which in truth is God and True Man within us, and "We will be within it", as the Witness, as the Witness of Them within us, and of what They are doing within us. Amen. And this is the name, Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), that our dear Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) within us, and God within Him, gave to this child in 1980, when we went to Ceylon, at the request of His Holiness, to visit His Holiness, walking into His room, in Colombo, which is in the center of this tiny Island off the southeastern coast of India, arriving on December 25, Christmas morning, spending 3 weeks with Him and His Children, in prayer, cooking, eating, and visiting, ending up in Northern Ceylon, which is now called Sri Lanka, in Jaffna, where His Holiness built a "House of God", for the Children of God for our age, where all are welcome, as He also did in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA, where all are welcome, no matter what religion we may come from, or currently practice, or not. Amen. May all the peace, the beneficence, and the blessing of God be upon us all. May God help us all. My love you (anbu), my dearest loving brothers Tom and Aron - Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler). End of "Version 01" of "Expanded Overviews" of - Spiritual Letter 72 - .........................
