Mudzubiat Ravings

  They’ve been where you are, They’ve gone where you’re going,  They’re going where you want to go and will show you the way. I follow in Thy footsteps which lead me to the eternal goal. from prayer Nabi by Hz Inayat Khan ... where the two worlds meet, t he door is round and open. Don’t go back to sleep - Rumi

Tone aloud  the magic " Hu"  (huuuu) feel the 'uuuu' buzzing between your lips, as a trumpet player improvising a divine note surrender to the sound feel its vibration lifting you expanding you into the cosmos. The magic is in the sound from your own voice! Hear it with your heart feel it as divine presence! Ya Hu   

No matter what Spiritual Path one travels, those who find enlightenment, self-realization, Awakening, Oneness, or whatever you want to call it, will evidence the same core qualities (most of the time), not just in words, but in action... Desire to Help & Serve others & humanity Awareness of the Unity and Sacredness of all beings and Life A sense of Interbeingness Selflessness Humility Gratitude Forgiveness Compassion and Kindness toward others Respect and Consideration for others  Caring and Tolerance of others An Open Heart An illuminated presence  If these qualities are not apparent,  then it is quite apparent,  that being is not enlightened!

The person who has realized Truth and makes a business out of selling their realization to others is like a person selling land back to those who already own it and don't know it. 😋 Those who have not  realized Truth and make a business out of selling what they think Truth is, are like people selling land they don't own  to people who don't know any better. 💔 Sorry but that's how the Mudzub feels about it... the Mudzub receives Truth freely  gives it freely and remains free. 😅 On the other hand... what is service and what is selling? Real Awakening to Truth, and 'En-Lighten-Ment' is too precious not to share with others,  in this, expenses are incurred and need to be covered. The mudzub must decide how to fairly handle such  in the flow of the Dharma, and the judgement of the One (God).  For in the One is the fair measure of all things and  where the scales of our actions are balanced.

  Magnetism draws to itself that which shares its essence. For example, a magnet draws iron, not aluminum because it is made of iron -- aluminum does not share that essence with the magnet. The more essence it shares, the stronger the magnetic attraction and connection. Like is drawn to like, to what it has affinity with... Like is always recognised by like.   – Hz. Inayat Khan Our attitudes, thoughts and emotions are “magnetized” by the heart and mind, and in turn, these faculties are magnetized by breath and soul. Therefore, if left unchecked, what we think and feel, due to the law of magnetic attraction, draws to us the same thoughts and feelings from others of like kind, i.e. those that share the same essence. And we will find ourselves surrounded by people and situations that share those same thoughts, feelings, and attitudes as we have created in our mind and heart. ‘Birds of a feather flock together’. It is true that what you think and feel (or fear), consciou...

  Whatever is reflected in a mirror consumes the entire mirror. Your soul is a clear mirror ,  it will reflect, and therefore be filled with, whatever is put in front of it! The substance that fills the soul mirror is your thoughts and feelings. If you put sadness in front of it, it will reflect and be filled with sadness; if you put anger and hate in front of it, it will reflect and be filled with anger and hate;  if you put beauty in front of it, it will reflect and be filled with beauty;  If you put love in front of it, it will reflect and be filled with love.   The soul will reflect whatever is in front of it for as long as you focus on it , and t he longer you focus on it, the more the soul believes that is what it is! The mirror has no power of discrimination. The power to discriminate and change what is reflected in the mirror of the soul is  Will Power , operating with the mind – with your will power, you can choose what to focus on and more import...

  Fact is... There is no god “out there”, until you touch God within your heart,  then everything and everybody becomes God.

  A Sufi should never be without a fikr or darood  This would be like a fish without water  If you don't have one, I'll give you one  breathe  Allah Hu all the time! Inhale Allah and Exhale Hu to feel divine presence;  Inhale Hu and Exhale Allah to feel Allah's kiss. Amin

Oh meditator don't look for peace in life - you will not find it. Life is not meant to be peaceful... Balance - yes, Contentment - yes, Purpose - yes, Transformation - yes, Growth - yes, Evolution - yes, Awakening -yes, Unity - yes. But not peace. You can only find peace by going deep within, to that origin place of stillness in you, which is beyond life, beyond breath, beyond death. When you find it there, if you want it in life, then you must hold on to it, and carry it with you  amidst the constantly changing, transforming movement of life's breath. Isn't it exhilarating to walk in the ocean's waves, and swim with its currents - as long as you can swim of course! 

  True presence has no judgement, but it does witness      what is in the moment, and ‘affirms’ its presence!

  Being present is a gift that will uplift! The easiest way to presence, Is to become Aware                       of your breathing.

  To be present, is to stop                                               Everything just long enough to come into      this moment. From that still point, you can see things as they truly are!

  There is power in presence, There is power in ‘being’ present. The power in ‘presence’ is spirit, The power in ‘being present’ is soul.
