Veil
O' Beloved,
I thought You
were so distant from me,
hiding beyond a veil.
Now I see
its my own veil,
my own lack of clear vision.
Why do I wear this veil
that keeps You distant from me?
Fashion?
Custom?
Habit?

Each, Alone
Each, Alone
We help each other discover a path,
We help each other travel the path,
Yet each must walk alone on their personal path,
Each must surrender alone, in private.
No one else can surrender for us,
No one else can take away the separation
that we have chosen.
No one else can surrender for us,
No one else can take away the pain
that we have chosen.
Oh Beloved, I walk alone,
empty,
into Your arms.
Each in their own time,
into Your arms.
Each in their own way,
into Your arms.
Each, alone, one by one,
into Your arms.
Each, alone, by their own desire,
into Your arms.
Each, alone, one by one,
into Sweet Surrender.
Wahiduddin from Rendezvous with the Beloved

Don't complain the Beloved is listening
"Don't complain the beloved is listening", that is the title for one of the sufis poem by the great Jalaluddin al Rumi. Unfortunately i could only lay my hand on the translated title without the poem's body. I have tried in vain to search for the translated version but unable to find any. Nevertheless the title alone is enough for us to understand the intended message of the peom, i guessed.
As servant of Allah it is a great sins for us to complain about our life, for when we complains we are implying that Allah don't know what best for us and at the same time we are saying Allah being unjust (zalim) to us. So long that we keep complaining about our lifes, complaining about others mistreating us, complaining about our misfortune and ill fate we remain in the disgrace of not knowing our true self.
Hazrat Khwaja Moinuddin Chishty (R.A.) once said "A person who has firm faith and believes in Allah doesn’t complain of others behaviour"
Next time before we complain we should remember that.....
The above was, (as i was told) from an email that was voted as the best email of the Year...I could understand why...because it touch everybody's heart. Does it touch yours?
Here is another opportunity for us to feel blessed, for Allah has created us with complete arms and legs..not like Nick Vujicic.
Say Subhanallah and Alhamdulillah.

If you think you are unhappy, look at them
If you think your salary is low, how about her?
If you think you don’t have many friends...
If you think you suffer in life, do you suffer as much as he does?
If you complain about your transport system, how about them?

Knowledge of all things is within us.
According to Ibnu Arabi, Allah deposited within all of us knowledge of all things, and then He blocked us from perceiving it; this is one of the divine mysteries that reason denies totally and thinks impossible. This mean that we are not able to gain this knowledge using our reasoning and thinking ability alone. Most of this knowledge is also not available by normal method of learning through books.
"And He taught Adam the names - all of them. Then He showed them to the angels and said, "Inform Me of the names of these, if you are truthful." (Quran 2:31)
The nearness of the mystery to those who do not know is like God's nearness to His servant, as proclaimed in His words,
"We are nearer to Him than you, but you do not see" (Quran 56:83) and His words, "We are nearer to Him than His jugular vein" (Quran 50:16).
Despite this nearness, the servant does not perceive or know anything; no one can know what is within himself until it is revealed to him moment by moment.
For those who seek and travel on the path to know himself this special knowledge will be revealed directly to him moment by moment. But this is only so after he reached a certain level of "knowing himself".
To reach to that stage he must do so under the guidance of Wise Spritual Master. It is wise for us not to deny the existence of such knowledge.

Hakikat mati sebelum mati
Seorang saudagar telah sekian lama memelihara seekor burung di dalam sebuah sangkar di rumahnya.
Satu hari ia mengambil keputusan untuk berangkat ke India, tanah asal burung itu, lalu menanyakan burung itu kalau-kalau ia ingin meminta sebarang buah tangan dari sana. Burung itu meminta kebebasannya, tetapi ditolak oleh saudagar. Karena itu ia minta saudagar itu pergi ke hutan di India dan memberitahu tentang keadaannya yang dalam hal dirinya yang di kurung itu kepada burung-burung lain yang masih bebas.
Saudagar itu pun melaksanakan pesan tersebut, dan sebaik sahaja ia mengucapkan pesan tersebut, seekor burung yang serupa dengan burung yang dipeliharanya jatuh dari sebuah pohon, tak sadarkan diri ke tanah.
Si saudagar berpendapat bahawa tentulah ia saudara kepada burung peliharaannya, dan ia pun merasa sedih kerana telah menyebabkan kematiannya.
Ketika ia pulang, burung peliharaannya bertanya apakah tuannya ada membawa sebarang khabar gembira dari India.
“Tidak,” jawab saudagar itu, “Aku membawa khabar buruk. Salah seekor saudaramu tak sedar diri lalu jatuh dekat kakiku ketika aku khabarkan tentang keadaanmu di sini.”
Sebaik sahaja kata-kata itu diucapkan, burung peliharaan saudagar itu pun tak sedarkan diri dan jatuh di dalam sangkar.
“Khabar kematian saudaramu telah menyebabkan kematianmu juga,” fikir saudagar itu. Dengan sedih diambilnya burung itu dari sangkarnya, lalu diletakkannya di tepi jendela.
Segera saja burung itu hidup kembali lalu terbang ke pohon berdekatan.
“Kini aku ingin memberi tahu kepada engkau,” kata Si Burung, “bahawa apa yang kau kira sebagai khabar buruk itu, ternyata merupakan khabar baik bagiku yang dipesan oleh saudaraku melalui kamu. Untuk mendapat kebebasan di dunia ini maka hendaklah kamu mematikan diri kamu, nescaya dengan itu engkau akan beroleh kebebasan.”
Dan burung itupun terbang, bebas merdeka akhirnya.
Cerita ini sesuai dengan hadis Nabi Muhammad s.a.w "Muutu Qobla An-Tamutu", artinya :"Matilah kamu sebelum Kamu Mati".
Kisah di atas memberi iktibar dan petunjuk penting kepada mereka yang ingin mencari identiti dan jati diri yang sebenar. Maka sebab itu lah barang kali Jalaluddin Rumi menukilkan sebagai tinggalan kepada mereka terkemudian untuk direnung-renungkan. Dr Wayne Dyer seorang pakar motivasi barat sendiri telah menyebut kisah ini di dalam sessi ceramah beliau. Lihat di sini

Knowing self
Knowing others is wisdom
Knowing the self is enlightenment.
Mastering others requires force
Mastering the self requires strength.
- Tao Te Ching
"It is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself,
you will not be imperiled in a hundred battles; if you do not
know your enemies but do know yourself, you will win one and
lose one; if you do not know your enemies nor yourself, you
will be imperiled in every single battle."
- Sun Tzu
"He who knows others is learned, but the wise one is one who knows
himself. Learning without wisdom is of no use." - A sufi

Dr Wayne Dyer - The Matrix of Life
All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force which brings the particle of an atom to vibration and holds this most minute solar system of the atom together. We must assume behind this force the existence of a conscious and intelligent mind. The mind is the matrix of all matter.

The Grace of Unconditional Love
In this message, Harold W. Becker shares that it is usually during times where we face the greatest challenges in life that we also create the most beautiful opportunities. These are the moments where we often initially feel the intense sense of helplessness or hopelessness, fear and doubt. Yet, when we are fortunate to be aware of the present now moment, remember to take a deep breath, release our attachment to the challenge and the outcome, and allow unconditional love as our perspective we experience grace.
If you wish to travel far and fast, travel light. Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness, selfishness, and fears.

Internal Power: Seven Doorways to Self Discovery
In this overview from the book by Harold W. Becker, Internal Power, Seven Doorways to Self Discovery, we find ourselves in a Grand Hallway with seven doorways representing our potential. Each doorway leads us into greater insight, understanding and personal awareness. The hallway represents our inner selves while the doorways help us recognize our journey to inner peace and freedom.
The first doorway, Choice, is the foundation of our journey of self discovery. Here we also realize the power of intent and responsibility in relationship to our choices.
In doorway two, we encounter the various ways we Communicate, both within and externally. Auditory, visual or kinesthetic along with our internal and external dialogue all point to the types of thoughts we entertain.
Positive Thinking is doorway three and here we find the road to happiness and joy in acknowledging the positive aspects of our lives.
Doorway four opens us up to the world of our Creativity. By accepting our creative nature through our thoughts, we restore the fullness of our ability to consciously create in everything we do.
Doorway five brings us to the important understanding of our innate Masculine and Feminine energies. Perhaps one of the most potent of our attributes is to embrace and balance the imagination, the feminine energy, with that of our masculine energy of willpower. This goes beyond our gender identification and when in balance, we become more whole and complete.
Doorway six leads us to the most incredible and fulfilling relationship of our Child Within. We can learn to bring this vibrant and dynamic energy back into our present moment as a spontaneous and joyful expression.
This brings us to the final doorway of Unconditional Love. The culmination of our life journey, here we release our attachments to fear and doubt and accept the natural flow of love that is always present. Our Internal Power is greatest when we realize unconditional love for ourselves and all life.
