Bawa. Each Summer “Louie’s Funny Little Family”, Which Consisted of Crisi, Lisa, Susan, Mrs. Vee (sometimes), Which Is What Everyone Called Crisi’s Mother, and Louie, Would Go To “The Shore” At Cape May, New Jersey, For A Week of “Summer Fun” Which Consisted of Lots of “Sitting On The Beach”, Soaking Up The Sun, As They Say, Walks On The Boardwalk, Thrill Rides (for the kids), Eating Lots of Silly Food, Like Pizza, Ice Cream, Chocolate Covered Nuts (you get the idea), As Well As Lots of “Regular Or Fast Foods”, Like Cheese Hoagies, Potato Chips, Coffee, Soda (again, you get the idea), and then riding home for 2 to 3 hours in the Jersey Traffic, Tired, And Hopefully Not To Sun Burned (which was always a danger for Louie), Until “The Next Time”, and that was for sure.

On December 8th, 1986, When Everything Again Would Change In Our Life, and that is for sure, That Is, As We “Sat On God’s Lap”, And Bawa Conducted Our Life, That Is, To “The Level That We Would Let Him”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. For About A Week Before Our Planned “Trip To The Shore”, For Again A Week of “Summer Fun”, Bawa Said To This Child, As Clear As A Bell, From Within Our Heart,
“Lou Tambi - This Time "Go To The Shore" With Me.
Bawa. And Then Bawa Explained “What He Wanted Us To Do” When We Went Down To The Shore This Time, With Bawa Instead of With The Family, That Is, First He Wanted Us To Sleep In Our “Own Tent”, Separate From “The Family Tent”, And Not Join With The Family In Any of Their Traditional “Summer Fun” Activities, And Second, To Aways Wear Our Kufi Or “Prayer Hat” For The Whole Week, That Is, To Aways Wear The “Prayer Hat” That The Boys And Men Traditionally Wear When They Do Salat, That Is, When They Do “The 5 Times Prayers” In The Islamic Tradition, And Third, To Do All of “The 5 Times of Prayer” In The Islamic Tradition, Each Day, Including Getting Up Before Sun Rise For The First Prayer, and that is for sure. Ok?

Ok?
01-3. “The Ramadan 1986 Bawa Discourses” - Was “God’s Last Great Teaching” In The World For Our Age, That Is, While Bawa Was Still Living In The World, and that is for sure.
Bawa. All of Which Was Made Up of “The Ramadan 1986 Discourses” That Bawa Gave To Us A Month Or So Before Bawa Physically Left The World On December 8th, 1986, That Is, With Bawa Formally Speaking To His Children 4 or 5 Times A Day, Each Day For The Whole Month of Ramadan, In 1986, Which Is The Traditional Month of Fasting In “The Islamic Tradition”, As “God’s Last Great Teaching” In The World For Our Age, That Is, While Bawa Was Still Living In The World, and that is for sure. Ok?
01-4. And Now As “God’s Last Great Teaching” In The World - That Is, Now Before “The End” of The World, Which Is Now “The Divine Feet”, And “The Life And Teaching”, And “The Heart”, of The Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), In The World, and that is for sure, That Is, When The Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) Truly Come To “Spiritual Maturity” In The World, That Is, While You And God Still Can, That Is, Before “You Die To The Flesh” In “Your Current State”, Which Is Now “The Current State” of All of My Children, Without Exception, That Is, In “Your Current State” of You Now Living As If Somehow You Now Exist As You As “Separate From” God, and that is for sure, All of Which of Course Is “Just Not True”, and that is for sure.

Bawa. That Is, When You And The Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) Truly Come To “Spiritual Maturity” In The World, While You And God Still Can, That Is, Before “You Die To The Flesh” In “Your Current State”, That Is, In “Your Current State” of You Living As If Somehow You Are “Separate From” God, and that is for sure, All of Which of Course Is “Just Not True”, and that is for sure.

Ok?
01-6. About Bawa “Taking Over” In Our Life - That Is, When We Stepped Back And Invited Him To Step Forward, Before We Did Anything, That Is, When We Said “The Word Bawa”, Before We Did Anything, As Bawa Has Told All of His Children To Do, That Is, When Bawa Was Still Living In The World, and that is for sure.
Bawa. And When Bawa Told All of This To This Child, That Is, About “What Bawa Wanted Us To Do”, When We Went To “The Shore” With Bawa, Instead of Going With “Our Family”, of Course We Were Both Happy and Concerned, Happy That Bawa Wanted Me To “Take Him To The Shore With Us”, And Live “This Way” As “One With” Bawa, As Bawa Described, Focused Exclusively On Prayer, On “The Holy Qur’an”, And On “The 1986 Ramadan Bawa Discourses”, For A Whole Week, Instead of “Business As Usual”, As They Say, But Concerned That “Louie’s Funny Little Family” Would Not Understand, To Say The Least, And May Even Decide To “Go To The Shore Without Louie” Altogether, Deciding That Louie Was Just “A Crazy Man”, And Should Be “Left Alone”, and that was for sure. Ok?
Bawa. So When Bawa Told Us What He Now Wanted “Lou Tambi” To Do, We Said To Bawa,
“What About Our Family, What Shall We Tell Them?”
Bawa. And Bawa Immediately Said The Following To “Lou Tambi”,
"Don’t Worry About Them. Just Call Them All Together And Tell Them What We
Have Told You, Stepping Back And Inviting Me To Step Forward And Talk To
Them”.
Bawa. And We Did As Bawa Told Us To Do, Calling Them All Together, Stepping Back And Inviting Bawa To Step Forward And Talk To Them, And Much To Our Surprise, Which Is Always The Case, They All Took It As Perfectly Normal, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And After “We” Told Them All of This, That Is, With “Bawa And Us” As “One”, They Said That Our Being “With Bawa At The Shore”, As Bawa Had Describe It, Was Fine With Them, That Is, That Our Wearing Our Prayer Hat For The Whole Vacation, Our Staying In A Separate Little Tent, Rather Than In The Main Family Tent, Our Praying “The 5 Times Prayers”, Including The Prayer Before Sun Rise, And Our Focusing All of Our Time And Energy On Reading The Holy Qur’an, And On Listening To “The 1986 Ramadan Bawa Discourses”, Rather Than Joining With Them In “The Summer Fun Activities”, As We Usually Did, Was Fine With Then, and that was for sure. Ok?
Bawa. So Now “Louie’s Funny Little Family” Had In Truth Now Become “God’s Funny Little Family”, And We Were Now All Set For “Our Week At The Shore”, And “The Ramifications” of Truly Living This Way With Bawa, At That Time In Our Life, That Is, of Our “Letting God Have His Way With Us”, Rather Than “Letting You Mind Have Its Way With Us” Were Then And Are Now Truly Amazing, All of Which We Will Next Describe In “The Body” of “Spiritual Insight 07-3” To Follow, and that is for sure, Starting With The First Lesson - “Nothing Is As You See It”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. My Love You (anbu) - Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us). Amen.
02. The First Lesson - “Nothing Is As You See It”, and that is for sure.
Bawa. My Love You (anbu) - Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us). Amen.
Bawa. So “Off To The Sea Shore” Went “God’s Funny Little Family” For Some “God Business”, As Well As For Some “Business As Usual”, And After Putting Up The Two Tents, That Is, Both The Big Family Tent, And Now “The Little Louie Tent”, We Started To Do What Bawa Had Told Us To Do, That Is, We Wore Our Kufi, Our Prayer Hat All The Time, We Did “The 5 Times Prayers”, As Prescribed In The Islamic Tradition, And We Start To Read Both “The Holy Qur’an” And Listen To “The 1986 Ramadan Bawa Discourses” Until It Was Time To Go To Bed, Setting Our Alarm Clock To Get Up Before Dawn For “Morning Prayers”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. When The Alarm Went Off We Set Our Intention As Bawa Had Taught Us, That Is, That Bawa Come As “One With” This Child, And Do What Bawa Had Told Us To Do, Starting With Getting Dressed, Going To The Bathroom, Having Something To Eat, And Then Washing For “The Morning Prayer”, And Then Starting The Prayer, But “Which Way To Pray”, That Is, Where Was “My Kiblah”, That Is, What Was The Proper Direction To Face While Praying, That Is, The Direction of “The Sacred Building At Mecca” That All Muslims Face When They Pray, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. Well It Was “Pitch Black”, And We Were At A Camping Ground In Cape May, And Not A Creature Was Stirring, And We Did Not Have A Clue Which Way Was East, Let Alone “The Correct Direction For Prayer”, So “What To Do?”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. Well The Answer For This Child Is Always So Simple, For This And For All Questions In My Life, For The Very First Time That We Met And Talked With Bawa, “In-The-Room”, As We Say, In The Summer of 1975, Bawa Told This Child The Following,
“Now You Think That We Are Just An Old Man Sitting On A Bed, But In Truth We
Are The Guide For Your Soul.”
“Now There Is No Reason That You Should Believe That, That In Truth We Are
The
“When You Leave Our Room Take Us With You, And If You Have A Question
About Anything Ask Us, And We Will Answer Your Question”.
Bawa. And We Said To Bawa.
“Yes Bawa. We Will Do That, We Do As You Requested.”
Bawa. And When We Left Bawa’s Room For The First Time in 1975 We Immediately Started To Ask Bawa Questions, And To Our Amazement He Immediately Answer Each of Them, As Clear As A Bell, From Within Our Heart, Just As If Were Were Physically Together In His Room, Exactly As He Told Us He Would, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. So By This Time, At Cape May In The Summery of 1987, Which Was Almost 12 Years To “The Day” That We Met Bawa For The First Time in 1975, And We Made “This Agreement Together”, That Is, To Live Our Life As “Bawa As One With Us”, Rather Than As “Us As Separate From Bawa”, This Practice of “Asking Bawa Questions”, When We Had A Question, And “Asking Bawa What To Do”, When We Did Not Know What To Do, Was Well Established In This Child, With Bawa Demonstrating To This Child For 12 Years That “He Was Always There”, And That In Truth “We Were Never Alone”, And That He Know The Correct Answer To Everything, Always Giving Us The Answer That Was Appropriate To Our Level of Understanding, And Then Always Giving Us The Next Deeper Answer When We Were Ready For That, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. So We Said To Bawa, Standing At The Camp Ground In Cape May, In The Summer of 1987,
“Which Way Should We Face For Prayer”.
Bawa. And Bawa Immediate Told Us Which Way To Face.
Bawa. And Then We Said To Bawa, As We Have Learned To Do, That Is, To Ask Him About Each Small Detail of What He Has Told Us To Do,
“Should We Stand Here And Pray?”.
Bawa. And Bawa Told Us,
“No. Not Here”
Bawa. That Is, “Not Here”, Which Was In The Middle of The Camp Grounds, And Bawa Said To Start Walking In The Direction He Had Given Us As “Our Direction For Prayer”. So We Started To Walk In That Direction At Bawa’s Direction, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. Soon We Came To The Edge of The Camp Grounds, And All We Could See Before Us Was Thick Woods, In Darkness, So We Stopped, And Again Asked Bawa,
“Keep Walking?”.
Bawa. And Bawa Said,
“Yes”.
Bawa. So We Did, At Bawa Direction.
Bawa. Now Earlier In The Evenings We Had Seen A Family of Skunks And At This Point In “Our Bawa Adventure”, As We Have Learned To Call Them, We Started To Smell The Distinctive Aroma of “Skunk”, So This Thought Was In Our Mind, And As We Started To Walk Into The Woods That Bordered The Camp Grounds In “Our Direction of Prayer”, At Bawa’s Direction, We Encountered A Thick Growth of Thorn Bushes, Which We Gradually Made Our Way Through, When Suddenly “The Woods Ended” And A Huge Open Field Was Before Us, And Above Us Was A Million Bright Stars, Much To Our Surprise, And We Were Immediate Moved To Go To The Center of The Field To Stand And Do Our Prayers, and that was for sure. Ok?
Bawa. But As We Have Learned To Do, “We Stepped Back, And Invited Bawa To Step Forward”, Saying To Bawa,
“Should We Continue To Walk Into The Field, And Pray From The Center of The
Field?”.
Bawa. And Bawa Immediately Said,
“No. Stand Right Here And Pray”.
Bawa. Which We Then Did, With The Distinctive Aroma of “Skunk”, And The Memory of “The Difficult Journey” To The “Edge of The Field” Gradually Fading From Consciousness Being Replaced With “The Awe of God” As “The Darkness of The Night” Gradually Gave Way To The Rising of The Sun From The East, And As The Large Birds In The Sky That Were Circling Over Us As We Prayed All Flying As If By Command Toward The Rising Sun, Disappearing From View, With Us Ending “The Prayer” With A Beautiful Dua (Supplication To God) Asking God To Protect Cape May And All of The People Living In Cape May, And The Prayer Was Over, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. What A Wonderful “Bawa Adventure”. Yes?
Bawa. But Then We Looked Across The Field And “The First Lesson” For This “Week At The Shore With Bawa” Was Learned, That is, “Nothing Is As You See It”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. For Outstretched From The Edge of “My Prayer Mat”, Where Bawa Had Us Stand To Pray, To The Center of The Field That “We Were Earlier Moved To Invade”, So “We Could Pray”, Were A Million Small Corn Plants Just Starting To Peek Through The Soil, Which We Would Have Killed, Destroyed, Devastated, If We Had “Had Our Way”, And Prayed At The Middle of The Field, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. That Is, If We Were Not By This Time In Our Life, “Living Within The Heart of The True Gnana Guru”, Now For Our Age, That Is, Living Within “The Heart” of God’s Example Now For Our Age of “A True Human Being”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And At That Moment We Realized “How Dangerous We Are”, To Everyone And Everything Else, When We Live In “Our Impure Heart”, Within “Our Mind” Within Us, And “How Glorious Our Life Can Be”, To Everyone And Everything Else, When We Live Within “The Pure Heart” of God Within Us, Which Is “The Heart” of “The True Gnana Guru”, Now For Our Age, That Is, Which Is “The Heart” of God’s Example Now For Our Age of “A True Human Being”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. Something To Think About “A Lot”, Yes?
Bawa. So, My Dearest Loving Brothers And Sisters, Sons and Daughters, And Grand Children, Please Let “This” Be “The Truth” Now For “Your Life”, Please Let “This” Be “The Final Gift of God” For “His Children” Before “This World” Ends, And “The Next World”, Begins, Which In Truth “Is Almost Now”, Which In Truth Is “2086”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And Please Join In Partnership With God, First On The Outside of You, And Then Within You, To Let God Now “Make It All So” For You, Within God Within You, While Both You And He Still Can, That Is, By You First Sitting At “The Divine Feet” of Our Dearest Loving Son, And Your Dearest Loving Brother, Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), In Whom “We Are Well Pleased”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. That Is, To Get God To “Cure Himself of You”, That Is, To “Cure Himself” of “The Mind” Part of You, That Is, To “Cure Himself” of First “The Individual Mind Part of You”, And Then, of “The Universal Part of You”, While Both You And He Still Can, That Is, When “You Truly Start To Demonstrate To God”, Moment To Moment, In “Your Life”, That In Truth “You Are Now Completely Done With You”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. That is, That In Truth “You Are Now Completely Done” With “Your Current Life", on “The Illusory Outside” of You, All of Which In Truth Is Just "Your Personal Example” of “The Dream Part” of “The Individual Mind” Part of You, All of Which In Truth Is Now “Your Life”, And “The Life” of All of My Children, and that is for sure, But To Your Eternal Peril, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And For You To “Truly Start To Do This”, That Is, To Truly “Start To Do” This “True Heart’s Work”, In Partnership With God, First On The Outside of You, And Then Within You, Before “You Die To The Flesh”, And Now Before “2086”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And If You Do, Then "God Will Do Everything Else" To Make Your Life Truly Successful In “Your Lifetime”, For In Truth This Is “God’s Promise”, This Is “God’s Guarantee” For Your Life”, For Your Age, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. My Love You - Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us). Amen.
03. The Second Lesson - “Why Does An Apple Seed Germinate?”, and that is for sure.
Bawa. My Love You - Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us). Amen.
Bawa. Bawa. So “Bawa As One With Louie” Continued To Do What Bawa Had Told Us To Do, That Is, Wear Our Kufi, Our Prayer Hat All The Time, Do “The 5 Times Prayers”, As Prescribed In The Islamic Tradition, Read Both “The Holy Qur’an” And Listen To “The 1986 Ramadan Bawa Discourses” Each Day, Throughout The Day, With Us Getting Up Each Day Before Dawn For “Morning Prayers”, Facing In The Direction Bawa Gave Us, As “My Kiblah”, And Standing At The Edge of “The Beautiful Field” of Baby Corn That Bawa Literally Opened Within “Our Heart And His Heart” As One, As “My Mosque”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And Then One Afternoon At Cape May, During Our Being “At The Shore With Bawa”, While Listening To One of “The 1986 Ramadan Bawa Discourses” Everything, And Everyone, For The Rest of Our Life Changed, When We Heard Bawa Ask His Children On The Tape The Following Question,
“Why Does An Apple Seed Germinate?”
Bawa. And We In Cape May, Like Everyone Else Sitting In The Room When Bawa Asked That Question During “The Month of Ramadan” In 1986, At The Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship, On 5820 Overbrook Avenue, In Philadelphia, USA, Knew The Answer To That Question, Right, and that was for sure. Ok?
Bawa. Wrong, and that was for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And After Bawa Listened To All of The Answers Posed By The Children At That Time, To Bawa’s Question, Which Was Also Our Answer, All of Which Had Something To Do With The 5 Elements, That Is, All of Which Had Something To Do With “The Earth, The Fire, The Water, The Air, And The Either”, Bawa Smiled And Said To His Children “In-The-Room” At That Time,
“No My Children, That Is Not Why An Apple Seed Germinates, Not Because of The Influence of The 5 Elements, Not Because of The Influence of “The Earth, The Fire, The Water, The Air, And The Either”.
“An Apple Seed Germinates Because It Become Aware That It Is An Apple Seed, That it Is Buried Within The Earth, And That The Earth Contains Everything Necessary For The Apple Tree Hidden Within The Apple Seed To Grow And Come To Maturity.”
“Then The Earth Becomes Aware That The Apple Seed Is Now Aware That It Is An Apple Seed, That it Is Buried Within The Earth, And That The Earth Contains Everything Necessary For The Apple Tree Hidden Within The Apple Seed To Grow And Come To Maturity.”
“And Then Within “That Mutual Awareness” The Apple Seed Surrenders To The Earth, And The Earth Surrenders To The Apple Seed, And That Is Why The Apple Seed Germinates, Through Awareness, Not Because of The Influence of The 5 Elements, Not Because of The Influence of “The Earth, The Fire, The Water, The Air, And The Either”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. So, Like In The First Lesson, “Nothing is As We See It”, And Now “Nothing Happens As We Believe Things Happen”, Because We Are Seeing Everything In A Godless Way, That Is, As If Man Is In Charge, Not God, That Is, As If Man Exists As “Separate From” God, “Not Only God Exists” As “One With” Man, And As Such, That Man Is Capable of Doing Things, Deciding Things, Causing Things To Happen, One Way Or Another, But All of Which, That Is, That “Way of Thinking”, That “Way of Believing”, Is False, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And Now, With This Answer, “Nothing Happens As We Believe Things Happen”, That is, “Mother Mature” Is Not The Cause of Anything, God Is, That Is, The 5 Elements Coming Together In A Certain Way Is Not Why “An Apple Seed Germinates”, But Rather “An Apple Seed Germinates” Because of “The Realization of The Truth” That Naturally Emerges From Within “The Apple Seed”, When It Is Ready To Hear “Its Truth”, And Ready To Either Accept Or Reject “Its Truth”, That In Truth It Is An Apple Seed, That It Is Buried Within The Earth, And That The Earth Contains Everything Necessary For The Apple Tree Hidden Within It To Grow And Come To Maturity”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And So It Is With Each of Us, That Is, “Our Mother” Is Not The Cause of Anything, God Is, That Is, Our Mother And Father Coming Together In A Certain Way Is Not Why “We Now Exist”, But Rather God Is Why “We Now Exist”, And God Is Why “We Come To Maturity”, Not Because of Any Effort On Our Part, As If We Now Exist As “Separate From” God, All of Which of Course Is “Just Not True”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And “We Germinate To Our Truth”, To The Truth That “God Is One With Us”, By Our Rejection of Our Falsehood, To The Falsehood That “You Are Separate From God”, That Is, We Germinate “To Our Truth” When “Our Truth” Naturally Emerges From Within Us, That Is, When We Are Ready To Hear It, And Ready To Either Accept Or Reject “Our Truth”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And When “Having Heard Our Truth”, Like The Apple Seed”, We Accept It, And Disappear Into Our Truth, “Letting God Have His Way With Us”, Revealing “The Tree of God”, Within God Within Us, For The Benefit of All of The Creation of God, Within God Within You, As The Apple Seed Disappeared Into “The Earth”, Letting The Earth Have Its Way With it”, Revealing And Bringing To Maturity The Apple Tree Hidden Within It, For The Benefit of Everyone And Everything Else, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. Also, Something To Think About “A Lot”, Yes?
Bawa. So, My Dearest Loving Brothers And Sisters, Sons and Daughters, And Grand Children, Please Let “This” Be “The Truth” Now For “Your Life”, Please Let “This” Be “The Final Gift of God” For “His Children” Before “This World” Ends, And “The Next World”, Begins, Which In Truth “Is Almost Now”, Which In Truth Is “2086”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And Please Join In Partnership With God, First On The Outside of You, And Then Within You, To Let God Now “Make It All So” For You, Within God Within You, While Both You And He Still Can, That Is, By You First Sitting At “The Divine Feet” of Our Dearest Loving Son, And Your Dearest Loving Brother, Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.),
In Whom “We Are Well Pleased”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. That Is, To Get God To “Cure Himself of You”, That Is, To “Cure Himself” of “The Mind” Part of You, That Is, To “Cure Himself” of First “The Individual Mind Part of You”, And Then, of “The Universal Part of You”, While Both You And He Still Can, That Is, When “You Truly Start To Demonstrate To God”, Moment To Moment, In “Your Life”, That In Truth “You Are Now Completely Done With You”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. That is, That In Truth “You Are Now Completely Done” With “Your Current Life", on “The Illusory Outside” of You, All of Which In Truth Is Just "Your Personal Example” of “The Dream Part” of “The Individual Mind” Part of You, All of Which In Truth Is Now “Your Life”, And “The Life” of All of My Children, and that is for sure, But To Your Eternal Peril, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And For You To “Truly Start To Do This”, That Is, To Truly “Start To Do” This “True Heart’s Work”, In Partnership With God, First On The Outside of You, And Then Within You, Before “You Die To The Flesh”, And Now Before “2086”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And If You Do, Then "God Will Do Everything Else" To Make Your Life Truly Successful In “Your Lifetime”, For In Truth This Is “God’s Promise”, This Is “God’s Guarantee” For Your Life”, For Your Age, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. My Love You - Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us). Amen.
04. The Third Lesson - “The One Thing, The Only Thing, That God Will
Ever Accept From You, Is God”, and that is for sure.
Bawa. My Love You (anbu) - Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us). Amen.
Bawa. Bawa. So “Bawa As One With Louie” Continued To Do What Bawa Had Told Us To Do, That Is, Wear Our Kufi, Our Prayer Hat All The Time, Do “The 5 Times Prayers”, As Prescribed In The Islamic Tradition, Read Both “The Holy Qur’an” And Listen To “The 1986 Ramadan Bawa Discourses” Each Day, Throughout The Day, With Us Getting Up Each Day Before Dawn For “Morning Prayers”, Facing In The Direction Bawa Gave Us, As “My Kiblah”, And Standing At The Edge of “The Beautiful Field” of Baby Corn That Bawa Literally Opened Within “Our Heart And His Heart” As One, As “My Mosque”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. But Now With “The First Lesson” of Our Life, “That Nothing Is As We See It”, And Now “The Second Lesson” of Our Life, “That Nothing Happens” As We Have Been Told That Things Happen, and that is for sure, Now Resonating In “The One Heart” That Is Now “Bawa As One With Us”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And At The End of “This Glorious Week” At The Shore With “Bawa As One With Louie”, As In Truth “The Successful Completion” of “The First 12 Years With The Guru”, As They Say, “Louie’s Funny Little Family” That Had Now Become “Bawa’s Funny Little Family”, With Everyone Getting Exactly What They Wanted From God, We All Came Back To 123 Argyle Avenue, In Ardmore, Pennsylvania, USA, For The Start of “The Second 12 Years With The Guru”, As They Say, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And The First Night Back From “This Bawa Adventure” This Child Sat All Night Praying In Bawa’s Room At 5820 Overbrook Avenue, In Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA, Reflecting On “These First Two Great Lessons” of Our Life, Until “The Call To Morning Prayer” Came Over The Loud Speaker, Which Bawa Then Told Us To Attend, Which We Then Did, Greeting All of Our Brothers And Sisters After Prayers, As If We Had Not Ever Really Seen Them, Or Understood Them In Any True Way, and that was for sure, Peacefully Letting Each Thing “Just Happen” In Our Life, Rather Than Trying To Organize It, And Conduct it, And Actively Participate In It, As If “We Were Really Important” And Needed For Anything of Value To Occur, All of Which of Course Is “Just Not True”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And When Everyone Had Left “The Mosque” of Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), After Morning Prayers, We Ended Up In The Little Classroom On The First Floor of “The Mosque” With Ali Applebaum (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us) Sharing With Him What We Had Experienced, And We Said To Him As Part of This Sharing The Following,
“Ali. It Is As If You Say To God,
“O God, Now We Know Who We Are. We Are “The Seed” of You. And We Are
Content Being “The Seed” of You, Now Buried Within “The Heart” of You, Now
Ready To Germinate Revealing “The Tree” of You, That Will Then Come To
Maturity And Bear “The Fruit” of You, All As Part of You Now Moving Forward
“Your Story”, And Within “That” Our Story”, and that is for sure.
“And O God, That Is Enough For Us. We Don’t Need Anything Else. We Don’t
Need To Become “The Tree” of You. We Are Peaceful Now Just Ending As “The
Seed” of You", and that is for sure.
Bawa. And As We Were Peacefully Sharing These Words With Our Dearest Loving Brother Ali, We Could Literally Smell “The Earth” That In Truth We Were Now Buried Within, An Earth That Was Now Ready To Surrender To Us, As We Were Now Ready To Surrendered To It, Ending Us Within God, Before We “Ended In The Grave”, And Beginning God Within God, For The Benefit of All of The Creations of God, Within God Within Us, And For A Little While More On The Illusory Outside of Us, For The Benefit of All of Our Brothers And Sisters, That Is, To Whatever Degree They Would Let it Benefit Them, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And We Were Very Tired, Having Stayed Up The Whole Night In Bawa’s Room, So We Gave Salaams To Our Dearest Loving Brother Ali And When Home To Ardmore, And Immediately When To Sleep, Getting Up Around Noon, When We Immediately Did The Noon Prayer, As Was Now Our Practice, and that was for sure. Ok?
Bawa. But While Sitting On Our Prayer Mat, After The Completion of Our Prayer, We Realized That Now We Literally Lived Within “The Heart of The Guru”, That Is, That We Were No Longer “The Seed” of God Buried Within “The Earth” of God, Ready To Germinate, But Rather That Now We Truly Lived Within “The Heart” of Our Dearest Loving Father Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us), Whatever That Meant, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. All of Which Was A Nice Thought But Did Not Fit With The Life That We Were Now Experiencing On The Outside of Us, So We Did What Bawa Has Told Us To Do With “Such Things”, That Is, We Put It On The Shelf For Later, Got Up, Took A Shower, And Drove Back To The Fellowship For Lunch, And For Prayers, And For The Saturday Night Meeting, and that was for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And After Lunch We Were Sharing Our “Week At The Shore With Bawa” With One of Our Sisters, Which She Listened To Politely, And After We Had Finished She Said To Us,
“Happy Birthday”.
Bawa. And of Course, As Is Usual In Our Life, We Were The Last To Hear About It, And We Asked Her What She Meant, And She Said,
“It Is Your Birthday of Being With Bawa For 12 Years”.
Bawa. And We Immediately Realize That She Was Right, It Was About 12 Years To The Day When We First Met Bawa In The Summer of 1987, And of Course That Made Us Very, Very Happy, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And We Then Sat There Reflecting On “This Physical Fact”, All of Which Only Exists Within “Our Impure Heart”, Within “Our Mind” Within Us, And Has Absolutely “Nothing To Do With God”, That Is, All of Which Only Has To Do With Our Illusory Life of “Separation And Differences” On The Illusory Outside of Us, As If We Somehow Exist As “Us As Separate From Bawa”, That Is, Until Bawa Literally Pulled Us Out of It, That Is, Until Bawa Literally Pulled Us Back Into “Our Reality” From “Our Dream”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. With Bawa Saying To This Child, As Clear As A Bell, From Within Our Heart, As We Sat At The Fellowship,
“Lou Tambi”. Don’t You Know What Happened?”
Bawa. And We Said To Bawa.
“No Bawa, We Don’t Know What Happened”.
Bawa. And Bawa Said To This Child, Again As Clear As A Bell, From Within Our Heart, As We Sat At The Fellowship,
“That Prayer That You Said To God This Morning In “The Mosque”, With Ali As
Your Witness, God Accepted It”.
Bawa. And Now We Understood What Had Happened In Our Life, We Had Truly Become Peaceful With Our Own Ending, Dying As “The Seed” of God, Dying In God, Before We Died In The Grave, Letting God Be Born Into God, Within “The Heart” of The True Gnana Guru, Now For Our Age, That Is, Within “The Heart” of Our Dearest Loving Father Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), and that is for sure, And Now “The Seed” of God, Buried Within “The Earth” of God, Was Now “The Seedling” of God, Growing Within “The Earth” of God”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And Now “The First 12 Years With The Guru” Had Successfully Come To Completion, And Now “The Second 12 Years With The Guru” Had Begun, and that is for sure, And Now We Were No Longer Happy, Within Our Mind, But Rather, Again We Were Peaceful, Again We Were Peaceful And Content Within Bawa, Trusting In God, And In God Alone, Praising God And Only God For Whatever Happens To Us, Glorifying God And Only God For Everyone And For Everything That We Experience, As We Had Now Learned To Be, Not Do, During “The First 12 Years With The Guru”, Culminating With “Our Week At The Shore With Bawa”, And Now In God Acceptance of “Our Prayer” In “The Mosque”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And In This Way, My Dearest Loving Brothers and Sisters, Sons and Daughters, And Grand Children, And Only In This Way, “The Third Great Lesson” of Our Life Was Learned, That In Truth “The One Thing, The Only Thing, That God Will Ever Accept From You, Is God”, All of Which Can Only Happen Within “The Heart” of “The True Gnana Guru”, Now For Your Age, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And Now For Your Age, That Is, For This “Final Age of Man”, From 1886 To 2086, “The Divine Feet”, And “The Life and Teaching”, And “The Heart” of “The True Gnana Guru”, Now For Your Age, In The World, Was Our Dearest Loving Father Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), From 1886 To 1986, In Whom “We Are Well Pleased”, and that is for sure, With Bawa Physically Leaving The World On December 8th, 1986, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. And Now For “The Second Part” of This Final Age of Man”, From 1986 To 2086, “The Divine Feet”, And “The Life and Teaching”, And “The Heart” of “The True Gnana Guru”, Now For Your Age, In The World, Is Now Our Dearest Loving Son, And Your Dearest Loving Brother, Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), In Whom “We Are Well Pleased”, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. That Is, “If You Are A Wise Child”, Now For Your Age, And Not Just A Foolish Child, Now For Your Age, As Bawa Tells Us, and that is for sure. Ok?
Bawa. My Love You - Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us). Amen.
