                                                          "Swamiyar?",       (Outline of Chapter 16)
or
"Are You My God
Who Will Take Me To God?
Who Will Turn Me Into God?"

Longer Title of Spiritual Letter:

Son, the term "Swami" is of great significance.  It is full of grace. 
It refers to God.

"Swamiyar?" is a Question, that is, the Question, "Are you God for my life, are you the "Presence of God", the "Word of God" made flesh for my life, are you How we become "Swamiyar", how we become God, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God, within God within us, and for a little while on the "outside" of us, for the benefit of our brothers and sisters, as this child has Now learned to do.

That is, are you the "Fire of God that is Now burning in the world
that we can Now "Fall Into"
before we die, if we like, to truly die before death, to truly become Again "Our Oneness With" that we lost by Now becoming "our separation from", to truly Again become "Our Oneness With" but this time with an Understanding of "Our Oneness With", So it will never leave us again? - M. R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.)".

Bawa.  Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim. In the name of God, the Most Merciful, the Most
Compassionate.

Bawa.  Al-salam 'alaykum wa-rahmat Allah wa-barakatuhu kulluhu. Wa 'alaykum
al-salam wa-rahmat Allah wa-barakatuhu kulluhu.  May all the peace, the beneficence,
and the blessing of God be upon all of My Children.  May God help all of My
Children.  May God be pleased with all of My Children.  Amen.

Bawa.  My love you (anbu), My dearest loving Grand Children, Sons and Daughters,
and Brothers and Sisters, and all of My Children  - Shaikh Muhammad Rahim
Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us).  Amen.

Bawa.  Here is Page 1 of 1 of the E-mail Version of a "Beautiful Review" of Chapter 16, "The Different Types of Swamis" (www.SpiritualBook002Chap16.homestead.
com), in the beautiful book of wisdom, "The Pearl of Wisdom" (www.ThePearlOf
Wisdom.homestead.com), by His Holiness, M. R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us), for your reading and hopefully for your sharing enjoyment. Amen. Ok?

Bawa.  A beautiful Spiritual Letter to each of My Children, who in truth is My Dearest Loving Son or Daughter Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be please with Him, and with Us), if you like, that is, if you look through the eyes of your Shaikh, of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), which are the 99 wilayats or powers of God within you, that is, are the 99 beautiful names of God in the Asma'el Husna within you, which in truth are the windows of your heart, if you like, through which everything in the 18,000 Universes within you can Now be seen, and understood, again, if you like, but this time within you, for in truth the Choice is yours, not God's. That is, the Choice of whether any of "The Truth and Reality of You" happens within you, or not, in your lifetime. Amen.

Bawa.  And in this way, a beautiful Spiritual Letter from God within My Children to God within My Children, which in truth is everyone living in your age, if you like, that is, if your true intention for the life within you, that is, for your soul life, for your 6th life, for your Light Life within you, which is Jesus (peace be upon Him) within you, is to again become "One with" God within you, or at least to truly Start to, in partnership with God within you, before you die to the flesh.

Bawa.  And in this way, and only in this way, you can avoid the consequences of your current life of "selfishness" in the world, of "separation from", all of which in truth is an eternal life of hell within you, that is, an eternal life within you as "separate from" God within you, for in truth,

"Hell Is Simply The Realization
That you have "separated yourself" From God within you,
Which in truth means that you have
Separated "yourself " From "Yourself" within you,
From Your Higher Self within you, If You Are Not Wise,
If You Don't Again Become One With God within you,
Before you die to the flesh,
But this time with an Understanding
Of Who "You Already Are",
So "Your Oneness" will never leave you Again,
Because in truth the Choice is yours, not God's"

Bawa.  All of which can only be avoided in your lifetime if you are wise, that is, if you wise up before it is too late, that is, if you Start to live as "One with" God, if you Start to demonstrate God to God within you, which in truth is the True Disciple, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, as this child has Now learned to do.

Bawa.  And that this child learned to do when Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) was still living in the world, First on the "outside" of me and then within me, becoming "One with" the One True Child of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), all of which all of My Children can still do, if you like, but Now by becoming "One with" the One True Child of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), that is, by Now using Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us) As Now "Us" for My Children, as Now your Father, your Shaikh, and your Guru, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, if you like.

Bawa.  So in the End you don't get an eternal life within you as "separate from" God within you, which in truth is the true result of the "current life and state" of all of My Children, So in the End you don't get some illusory heaven on another "outside" of yourself, as My Children still mistakenly believe. 

Bawa.  But instead, you become "One with" God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, if you like, but this time with you doing it using Our Dearest Loving Son, and your brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us) as "Us", as Now your Father, your Shaikh, and your Guru, First on the "outside" of you as your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), and then within you as "Us", as Now Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within you.

Bawa.  And if you do, that is, if you truly learn How To Do this "Hearts Work" correctly, before you die to the flesh, or at least Truly Start to, then your soul life, which is Jesus (peace be upon), your 6th life within you, will "Become Free".

Bawa.  For in truth all that is Now Stopping "This Freedom of the soul", is
"you", is Now your "current form and state", all of which in truth is Now "you" as "the form and state of the satan", which in truth is Now "you" as the "anti-christ", which is Now "you" as Jesus (peace be upon Him) crucified on His Cross, with the 5 nails of "your desire" to live on the illusory "outside" of yourself as "separate from, that is, as a life of selfishness, of sin, of "separation and differences", that is, with "you" Now living as if you are "separate from" God within you, as if you are "separate from" your brothers and sisters, and as if you are "separate from" the Creation of God, within God within you, all of which is "Just Not True".

Bawa.  And Only in this way will you truly become successful in your lifetime,
My Dearest Loving Children
, that is, Only in this way will "You" as "One with" Us,
with "You" as "One with" God, will "You" as Jesus (A.S.) get off of Your Cross
, by Letting "Us" destroy the "anti-christ", that is, by Letting "Us" destroy "you" as "separate from", and reveal "You" as "One with".

Bawa. Only in this way will You Learn Again How To Live as God's Purity, joined as "One with" God's Consciousness, in search of God's Light, but this time for eternity, but this time with an Understanding of "Your Oneness", so it will never leave "You" again. Amen.

Bawa.  And in this way, this "Spiritual Letter 152" on the "True Meaning of the Word Swamiyar" is "A True Love Letter" to Our Dearest Loving Son and Daughter Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) Now living at the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship, both within you and for a little while on the "outside" of you.

Bawa.  "A True Love Letter" To the "Inner Heart" and From the "Outer Heart" of all
of My Children, that is, To your "Inner Heart" within you, which in truth is Now the True Fellowship within all of My Children, which in truth is Now "Us" living within "Your Wisdom", which in truth is Now "Us" living within Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within you.

Bawa.  And "A True Love Letter" From your "Outer Heart", for a little while on the "outside" of you, which in truth is Now the heart of Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us), if you like, in whom "We are well pleased".

Bawa.  Therefore, "A True Love Letter" that you can Only Send To "Us", by you Now Learning How To Become "One with" God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, by you First Learning How To Become "One with" Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, if you like, because in truth,

"What is Separating you from God,
Is what is Separating you from each other,
And what is Separating you from each other,
Is what is Separating you from God"  Amen.

Bawa.  And a beautiful Spiritual Letter which "We" have also given the following

"Join As "One With" Us On The "Outside" of You
To Become "One With" Us Within You,
In Order To Truly Become "One With" God Within You,
In Order To
Truly Understand
"Who You Already Are",
And "Where You Already Are",
And "What Is Already Happening" In Your Life,
While You Still Can,
Before This Kind of Understanding
Is No Longer Available To You,
Because You Have Become
What God Has Discarded From Himself,
In Order To Become God Within You.
That Is,
To Truly Understand
"What Can Truly Return To God Within You",
Because It Is What Truly Came Here From God Within You,
And To Truly Understand
"What Cannot Return To God Within You",
Because It Is What Truly Grew Here,
As The Lives of Darkness and Evil Within You,
And Really Has No Interest In Returning To God Within You,
No Matter What It Might Tell You To The Contrary.
And To Truly Understand This Choice,
And What Will Help You Make The Correct Choice,
Which In Truth Is Only God Within You,
And For A Little While God On The "Outside" of You,
And What Won't Help You Make The Correct Choice,
Which Is Everything Else,
No Matter How It Is Currently Decorated
On the Illusory "Outside" of You,
And No Matter How it Currently Speaks To You
As Your Thoughts Disguised As Wisdom.
And Start To Understand Everything
From God's Perspective
As "One with" Everyone and Everything,
As God Witnessing God Tell And Bring To Completion
His Story Within Him
For the Benefit of all of the Creation of God Within Him,
And For a Little While On the "Outside" of You
For The Benefit of Your Brothers and Sisters,
As This Child Has Now Learned To Do.
And Stop All of Your Current Activity
Of Trying To Understand Everything
From Your Prospective
As "Separate From" Everyone and Everything,
As "Your Story" On the "Outside" of You,
For Your Benefit,
Not For The Benefit of Anyone Or Anything Else.
Amen. Ok?"

Bawa.  A Spiritual Letter from God within us all, to the Children of God for this age, which continues to "outline" for you what most of My Children are currently doing wrong, and how to correct their mistake using My Children, that is, using Those of
My Children
who have truly learned from "Us" how to do it right, that is, who have truly learned "How not to be there, So God can be there", So in the end, there will be "No Child Left Behind" within you, that is, there will be nothing still "separating God" from God within you.

Bawa.  May God all the peace, the beneficence, and the blessing of God be upon all
of My Children.  May God help all of My Children.  May God be pleased with all of
My Children
.  Amen.

Bawa. My love you - Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Us, and with Him). Amen.

3-0.  The Three Swamis of "Falsehood"

3-1.  The Swami of Estimation - is the Swami of "Earth joined with Water", or of "False Creation", or "false form", all which in truth is the life of the demon, focused on "False Creation" and on Estimation, on the "illusory place of birth", all of which in truth is Now your life as experience Below Your Waist, only for the earth joined with water to "let you down" later in your life, realizing in the end that, "When I trusted the earth, I was deceived, When I desired women, I was a demon"
3-2.  The Swami of Imagination - is the Swami of "Earth and Water joined with Fire", or of "False Destruction", or "false essence", all of which in truth is the life of the jinn, focused on "False Destruction" and Power, or Imagination, all of which in truth is Now your life experienced as Your Stomach, which in truth is just your "hunger, illness, old age, and dearth, given to you as the "gift of your mother" on the "outside" of you, as the guru of the 64 arts and 64 sextual games that only lead you to 105 million rebirths, with ending as a worm in hell with only one level of consciousness, or feeling.
3-3.  The Swami of Pleasure - is the Swami of "Earth and Water and Fire joined with Air", or of "False Life", or "false power", all of which in truth is the life of the fairy, focused on "False Life" and on "torpor or fascination" or pleasure, all of which in truth is Now your life experience as Your Chest, which in truth is just the "attachments of all of the Creation of God", attachments which you Now hope to keep forever by "working for wages" to get into some New illusory "outside" of you after you die to the flesh, but all of which is "Just Not True".

Summary of Topic 01:

Bawa. To Truly Believe In God You Need Understanding, that is, you First need
to know the difference between the "Truth of God" and the "falsehood of the  world",
and then you need to Start to believe in and actively embrace the "Truth of God", and
to Stop believing in and actively reject the "falsehood of the world" in everything that
you "Say, or Do, or Write", as this child has Now learned to do.

Bawa.  And to do this by invoking the "Truth of God" which is "God's Presence"
and "God's Words" within you, before you "Say, or Do, or Write" anything, as this child has Now learned to do, all of which for your age and for your life, for all life, is
Now "you" invoking the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within you, by
"you" saying the Name of your Shaikh/Guru, by "you" saying the Word "Bawa", or
"Bawa Muhaiyaddeen", or "Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen"
(Ral.), before you "Say, or Do, or Write" anything, as this child has Now learned to do.

Bawa.  And then, if you do, if you do this, as Bawa told all of His Children to do,
when He was living in the world as Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), and Now as Shaikh
Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) is Again telling you to do, Now as His Children, if you like,
then God within you will do Everything Else, everything else necessary to make your life truly successful in your lifetime, and that is for sure.  Amen.  Ok?

Expanded Summary of Topic 01:

Bawa. To say that "The world is great and that there is a God for all the universes" is not enough, because to just say it is not to Understand It, and to not Understand it, is most certainly not to "Become it", because in truth to just say it is just two worldly statements, statements that anyone in the world can make, but by themselves these two statements do not constitute true belief and faith in God. 

Bawa.  For that, for true belief and faith in God, you need something more, for that you need Understanding of both God and of the world, specifically, you need an Understanding of the difference or the Contrast between the "Truth of God" and the "falsehood of the world".  Only then can you Start to transcend "your falsehood", if you like, and Start to become "Your Truth", if you like, that is, the truth that "Man and God are One".

Bawa. For example, people say that they believe in God and that they have faith in God, but do they believe in God knowing the truth of God and knowing the falsehood of the world, for to truly believe in God you must First know the difference between the truth of God, and the falsehood of the world, and then Start to believe in the truth of God, and Start to reject the falsehood of the world, otherwise your belief in God, your faith in God, is just another reflection of your hypocrisy, that is, of you "saying one thing but of you doing another".

Bawa. Otherwise your belief and faith in God is just like a parent's belief in Santa Clause, that is, belief for the sake of the parents selfish need to please the child, rather than God's Selfless Love to truly "Guide the child" away from "faith and belief in the world", or in Santa Clause, or in "the satan", and toward "True Belief and Faith in God", all of which in truth is just faith in the falsehood of a child's life, all of which in truth is just the world the child is born into, from his mother's womb, as the "child of his parents", a world which in truth is the "form of the satan" or the illusory world on the "outside" of all of My Children.

Bawa.  And instead to Join in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you
and then within you, to truly "Guide the child" toward "true belief and faith in God".

Bawa  All of which truly Starts with the Parents belief and faith and trust in the truth of the child's life, that is, of their life "as the child", and all of which truly Starts
with your belief and faith and trust in the world that you "as the child" came from as a soul, which is the "World of souls" within you, that is, with you "as the child" coming from the "World of souls" as a "Ray of the Light of God", as the "Child of God's", coming First to the "Form of Adam" (peace be upon Him), which in truth is the Original "Form of God" for your life, all of which you "as the child" First experiences as the "womb of your mother", that is, as your "True Country", before you "as the child" came into the "earth world" within you, that is, into your "false country".

Bawa.  That is, into your "false country" which in truth all of My Children Now mistakenly place their belief, and faith, and trust in, but which in truth is the illusory "outside" of all of My Children, that is, when each of My Children upon appearing on this earth world, that is, upon "falling out of the mothers womb", then "Forgets God" and falls into many a trap, coming to the "current state" of all of My Children, where you no longer know to "Seek Yourself within Yourself", although God exists within man.

Bawa.  But a world, that is, the world of the child's "True Country", which in truth is the world of his mother's womb, all of which is Now hidden within all of My Children, but that My Children must Now Join as "One with" God within you to "Re-open" within you, and then to "Open" the Kingdom of God hidden within the "Re-opened" World of souls within you, and to do this, or at least to truly Start to do this, in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you, as Now Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), and then
within you as "Us" within
Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within you, and to do this Now, Here and Now, or at least truly Start To, in Partnership with God, before you die to the flesh.

Bawa. A world which was earlier known as the "World of souls" within you,
that is, before you came to the First of God's Schools within you, to the "School of Contrast" within you, to Understand who "You Already Are", by First learning about what is Now "Separating You From God", because in truth Understanding only occurs through Contrast, So before you die to the flesh, you can graduate from this First of God's Schools within you, this "School of Contrast", having Now Joined in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to "cut away" everything that is Now separating all of My Children from God within you, which in truth is "you", which is your "current life" as "separate from", and reveal your "Next Life" as "One with", Here and Now, which is You as the "Child of Light" hidden within "you" as the "child of darkness", and in this way, with "You" Now Ready to go to the Next of God's Schools within you, that is, to the "School of Light" within you, where God will teach God about God within you.

Bawa.  All of which requires "you" to Now Join In Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to "Re-open" the "World of souls" as "One with" within you, all of which Now lies hidden within all of My Children, by you Now joining in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, that is, to "close down" your "current life" as "separate from" within you, which in truth is the "world of hell or demons" within you, and the "world of jinns" within you, and the "world of fairies" within you, which in truth is the three "current sections" of your body below your head, that is, the section below your waist or false creation, your stomach or false destruction, and the section of your chest, which is false life, or impure spirits.

Bawa.  And to do this, that is, to "Re-open" the "World of souls" within you before you die to the flesh, that is, before the illusory "outside" of you is over, because Only then will your life become truly successful in your lifetime, that is, Only then will you reach success in your lifetime, when you are again living in the "Re-opened" World of souls, as the Qutb of God within you, as the Qutbiyyat of God, which is your "6th level of wisdom", the wisdom that explains, or Divine Analytic Wisdom, before you die to the flesh, or at least truly Start to "Re-open" it before the illusory "outside" of you is over, will My Children be able to transcend death, be able to survive the grave.

Bawa.  That is, Only In This Way will any of My Children be able to truly survive or transcend your death and the "suffering of the grave" without being destroyed at the grave site, that is, Only In This Way will any of My Children be able to miss or skip the "suffering of the grave" and Qiyamah (the Standing Forth; the Day of Judgment", that occurs after you die to the flesh, if you are not wise, that is, all of which will most certainly come to all of My Children if "you are not wise", that is, if you don't wise up before it is too late, that is, before this temporary school of Contrast is over, So you can successfully graduate from this "First of God's Schools", by letting God reveal God to God, that is, by letting God "Use Your Life" to "Reveal the Child of Light" that is Now hidden within "you" as the "child of darkness", while God still can, that is, while you are still living in the world, and that is for sure.  Amen. Ok?

Bawa.  Because Only then, that is, Only if you truly become the "Child of Light" as "One with" which is Now hidden within the "child of darkness" as "separate from", within each of My Children, will you be able to transcend the "suffering of the grave" and Qiyamah after the grave, because by becoming the "Child of Light" you will have become Qiyamah before the grave, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God, within God within you, and for a little while on the "outside" of you, for the benefit of all of your brothers and sisters, as this child has Now learned to do, and as the "Child of Light", after you die to the flesh, you will then immediate leave the grave to go off to the Next of God's Schools within you, having Now graduated from the School of Contrast within you, which is the School of Light within you, where God will teach God about God within you.

Bawa. Allowing God to return to God within you, from which He has Come,
allowing True Man to allow God to Complete the Story of God within you, which is the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man", within God within you, So in the End, "No Child Is Left Behind", so in the End, there is Nothing Still "Separating God from God" within you, and that is for sure.  Amen. Ok?

Bawa. Please reflect on these beautiful "Words of Grace, Wisdom, and 'Ilm",
My Dearest Loving Children, while you still can, at least a little bit, they could save you from an eternal life within you as "separate from" God within you, if you like.  Amen. Ok?

2-0.  The Four Kinds of Swamis

                                                            - go to "Text of Topic 02"
Summary of Topic 02:

Bawa.  The Four Kinds of "Swamis" are the Three Swamis of "Falsehood" and the One True Swami of "Truth", that is, the Three False Swamis of of "Estimation", of "Imagination", of "Pleasure", all of which in truth is the Swami of the "triple dirt" of "the satan", First on the "inside" of you as the elemental spirits within you, as the demon, the jinn, and the fairy, as the three sections that Now make up your body, that is, below the waist, your stomach, and your chest, all inimated and controlled by the 9 openings, 7 in your head and two below, and then on the "outside" of you, as Now "you", as Now "you" as the "Enemy of the soul", as Now "you" as the "anti-christ".

Bawa.  And then "You" as the One True Swami of "Truth", First on the "outside" of you as the True Disciple, and then within you as the "Triple Flame" of God within you, as then as Jesus (peace be upon Him) having gotten off of His Cross within you, having destroyed the "anti-christ", that is, having destroyed "you" and Revealed God to God within you.

                                                            - go to "Summary of Topic 02"
Text of Topic 02:

Guru:

Son, the term "Swami" is of great significance.  It is full of grace.  It refers to God.

"Swamiyar?" is a Question, that is, the Question, "Are you God for my life, are you the "Presence of God", the "Word of God" made flesh for my life, are you How we become "Swamiyar", for the benefit of all of the Creation of God, within God within us, and for a little while on the "outside" of us, for the benefit of our brothers and sisters, as this child has Now learned to do, that is, are you the fire of God that is Now burning in the world that we can Now fall into before we die, if we like, to truly die before death, to truly become Again "Our Oneness With" that we lost by Now becoming "our separation from", to truly Again become "Our Oneness" but this time with an Understanding of "Our Oneness", So it will never leave us again?

In this way, "Swami" has two meanings. First, "Swami" can refer to God, that is, to what God has given to you and to all of My Children for the salvation of your soul, that is, that God has give to you as your "Judgment and Salvation", as your Guru/Shaikh for your age and for your life, for all life, that is, as Jesus (peace be upon Him) having gotten off of His Cross, that is, with you liberated soul having joined as "One with" your awakened wisdom, in search of the Nur, the Light of your wisdom, by destroying the "anti-christ" within you, by destroying the "form of the satan" within you, that is, by transforming the "anti-christ" into the Christ within you, by transforming the "form of the satan" into the "Form of God" within you.

And Second, ordinary men too have the name "Swami", as a term of endearment used at home referring to a son, a child, or a loved one.  And the name "Swami" can be used as a derogatory term, for in truth there are "Swamis" who deserve contempt.

However, the "Main Point" is that the world is in the process of searching for a "True Swami" for the salvation of your soul, for the liberation of your soul from a "silent and formless" life, moving or roaming throughout you like breath, smoke, or vapor, animating the 7 hells within you, all of which is Now the two sections of your body below your chest, which is your stomach, which in truth is the world of jinns or beings of fire within you, or false destruction within you, and the section below your waist, which in truth is the world of demons or beings of water within you, or false creation within you.

And Now also animating your "current life" of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of yourself, all of which in truth is Now the "flower of hell" within you, the 8th hell within you that Now fills the handful of earth known as your heart, which in truth is the world of fairies or being of air within you, or false life, all animated and ruled over through the 7 openings in your head and by the 2 openings below, as the 9 planets of celestial being of the 12 signs of the Zodiac.

That is, with you Now being Ruled Over by the 9 Openings of your elemental body, all with "God's Permission", that is, until you "See God and Steady God" within you, that is, within your heart, and in this way, and only in this way, until you join in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to

"Close down the world of hell or demons within you,
The world of jinns within you,
and the world of fairies within you,
Re-open the World of Souls within you,
And then Open the Kingdom of God within you"

Such is the True Significance of the Term or Question "Swamiyar?", that is, Are you Now God for my life, Are you Now what God has given to me for my life, for the salvation and redemption of my life, before we die to the flesh, and have to enter the grave, and suffer the "Questioning of the Grave", and experience Qiyamah (the Standing Forth; the Day of Judgment", the Question that in truth the whole world is Now asking, whether you know it or not, and even whether you want it or not, for in truth "This Question" in truth is what Now defines and drives all life and all activity for your age.

And in truth the Answer to "This Question" is Now "Yes", for all of My Children,
which in truth is Now Everyone in this age,
the Answer is Now "Yes", is Now "Yes" we are "Swamiyar", the Answer is Now "Yes" for all of My Children, if you like, that is, "Yes", we are Now God for all life, "Yes" we are Now the Salvation and Redemption for all life, because "God has Now" Made It So", for your age and for all life, for in truth each of My Children Now have but to "Pick It Up", that is, to pick up your "True Birthright, your True Heritage, the True Destiny of your soul, which is God, which in truth is Now "Swamiya" for all of God's Creation, because God has Already Done "Everything Else" necessary to "Make It So", for you, if you like, and such is Now the "True Exaltedness" of your own life, of the life of all of My Children, if you like. 

And in this way, The Choice is Now yours, not God's, that is, the Choice to be "Swamiyar" for all of the Creation of God, within God within you, because God has already made His Choice, and He Chose "Oneness with You", and Now all you have to do is the same, that is, Now Choose "Oneness with God", that is, Now "Let Yourself Be God".   And That's It.  For Then "God Will Make It So".  Amen. Ok?

And in this way, the world is Now in the Process of Searching For God, that is, the world is Now Searching for Salvation and Redemption, is Now asking this One Question, "Swamiyar?", Everywhere and All The Time, which in truth is "The One Point" behind Everything that is Now happening in your life, in the life of all of My Children, in all life, No Matter How you are currently seeing or experiencing it, all of which is just your dream, is just your fate, is just what is written on your forehead by the Kalam or Pen, but beyond your dream is always this One Question, is this One Search, and each of My Children is the True Answer to this One Question, to this One Search, and that is for sure, and that One Answer is Now "Yes", Yes We Are God for you.

Please know this Now My Dearest Loving Children, and Start to Act Accordingly,
Start
to "Let Yourself be God", and then God will do Everything Else Necessary to "Make It So", and Yes, it is truly this simple.  How Else would God have made it?  Amen. Ok?

So Please join in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to Start to "Pick Up" this "Truth of your life" that truly defines each of My Children, that in truth "You and God" are One, and Start to "put down" the "falsehood of your life" that Now falsely defines each of My Children, that "you" and God are separate".  It is truly this simple.  Amen. Ok?

And in this way, the world is Now in the Process of Searching For God, for a True Swami, that is, the world is always saying this behind Everything that is Now happening in your life,  the world is always saying,

"Who is He? 
Could it be this "Swami" or that "Swami"? 
Could it be this "Person" or that "Person"?

And Unaware of who the "True Swami" is, that in truth He is "You", and has always been "You", and will always be "You", no matter what you say or do or think, because this is the "Truth of your life", because God has "Made It So" for your life, for all of My Children, both Now and Forever, the world continues to search for the "True Swami" the world over, all of which is like a "fish looking for water", or like a "bird looking for air", or like a "squirrel looking for earth", when in truth the "fish is water", and the "bird is air", and the "squirrel is earth", the world continues to act like it is very, very rare indeed for such a "True Swami" to be discovered and identified, because in the world, especially today, who is even truly asking the Question, "Who Am I?", when in your ignorance "you" already think you know "Who you are".  Right?

And for this reason each household will laughingly say that there is many a "True Swami", because in truth man has truly given up asking about the Living "Presence of God" and the Living "Word of God" Now for your age and for your life, and man has reduced even the idea of a "True Swami" to some earlier age, at least on the "outside" of yourself, and because man in his ignorance, and Now in his arrogance about his ignorance, thinks he knows "Who he is", So he is certainly not looking for "Himself', either on the "outside" of Himself and certainly not "within" Himself".

However, in truth there are still "Four Different Kinds of Swamis" that occur in the world, all of which "We" shall Now describe for you in this and subsequent Chapters, as "We" described for you in a similar way in previous Chapters, where "We" described the "Four Destructive Women" (Chapter 01), and the "Four False Gurus" (Chapter 04), and recently "We" described the "Four Types of Charity" (Chapter 15).

All of which provide some clarity about the "True Journey of Life" that gradually reveals the "True Swami" as "You", if you like, as well as gradually reveals the "True Wife" of the soul as "You", as well as reveals the "True Guru" of the "True Light on Earth" as "You", and as well as reveals the "True Charity" as "You", again, if you like, that is, that gradually reveals God within you, to God within you, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God, within God within you, and for a little while on the "outside" of you, for the benefit of your brothers and sisters, if you like, as this child has Now learned to do.  Amen. Ok?

That is, if you truly join in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to gradually cut away from "Yourself" everything that is Now covering the "True Swami" within each of My Children, that is, all of which in truth is the Journey of God within you to "separate from" God all that is Now "Separating God" from God within you, or for you to "Let Yourself Be God", or for you to "Let God Cure Himself of you", that is, to Let God cure Himself of your current life as "a person", as the "false fellowship" of "like minded people" who come together to talk and talk about Everything, including to talk about God, but never to become what you talk about, that is, never to "Become God".

That is, for you to Join in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to "Let God Cure Himself" of "you", of "you" Now living as the "Enemy of the soul", as the "anti-christ", that is, to "Let God Cure Himself" of "you" living a life of "separation and differences", of selfishness or sin, on the illusory "outside" of yourself, as if you are "separate from" God within you, as if you are "separate from" your brothers and sisters, and as if you are "separate from" the Creation of God, within God within you, all of which is "Just Not True".  Amen. Ok?

And "We" will Start in this Chapter to describe the Three Kinds of False Swamis, which in truth is Now your life of Arrogance, Karma, and Illusion, which in truth is Now your life as the "triple dirt", First on the "outside" of you as your "current life" of "separation and differences", and then within you as the "form of the satan", as the world of demons, the world of jinns, and the world of fairies that you have mistakenly opened in your ignorance, and that you are Now keeping open in your arrogance about your ignorance, all of which Must Now Leave You, all of which you must Now join in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to Close Down, and in this way to Re-Open the "World of souls", First on the "outside" of you and then within you, and then to Open the Kingdom of God within you, becoming True Man within God within you.

And then in subsequent Chapters "We" will describe the One True Swami, which in truth is God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, that is, First on the "outside" of you as Three within the One, as "Your Triple Flame", as Now Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), in whom "We are well Pleased", and then within you, as "Us" within Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within you, that is, as the One within the Three, allowing God to Pray to God, which is the Only True Prayer, the "Prayer of the One to the One who Is".

Allowing God to finish telling and bringing to Completion the First Part of God's Story, which is the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man", the First Part of God's Story, which is the "Story of True Man within God" within you, bringing it to Completion as True Man within God within you, if you like, allowing True Man to then tell and bring Completion the Second Part of God's Story, the Second Part which is the "Story of God within True Man", So in the End, there is "No Child Left Behind", So in the End, there is Nothing Still "Separating God" from God.  Amen. Ok?
   
That is, First "We" will describe the Three Swamis of "Falsehood", Next in this Chapter, that is, the Three Swamis of "Estimation", of "Imagination", and of "Pleasure", all of which in truth is the Swami of the "triple dirt" of "the satan", First on the "inside" of you as the elemental spirits within you, as the demon, the jinn, and the fairy, and then on the "outside" of you as Now "you", as Now "you" as the "Enemy of the soul", as Now "you" as the "anti-christ".

And then in subsedquent Chapters "We" will describe the One True Swami of "Truth", First on the "outside" of you as the True Disciple, and then within you as the "Triple Flame" of God, as Jesus (peace be upon Him) having gotten off of His Cross, having destroyed the "anti-christ", that is, having destroyed "you" by Revealing God to God within you, that by awakening the wisdom surrounding your soul, joined as "One with" your liberated soul, in search of the Nur, which is the Light of your wisdom.  Amen. Ok?

He is another Swami who had lived a life of prosperity, had ruled many countries, had amassed great wealth, had traveled widely with wife and children, seen many things, heard of many things, consumed intoxicants and enjoyed life till he had lost all his possessions and incurred heavy losses.

Now, discarded by his wife and children, and also by his relatives and other people, he has none to inquire after him and look after him.  There is a saying,

"If a rich are ruined
They will not belong even to a dry pot"

So with a distorted mind and forgetful of the earth, he directs his mind the other way to ask,

"Is this the world? 
Is this how the end will be?

He beats his head and seeks refuge in the Primal One, saying,

"The world is false.
This birth is false.
My God is the Only True One"

So lamenting, he carries a bowl in his hand and becomes the Swami who begs for food.

Text of Topic 3-3:

"This is no birth for me", says the third type of Swami.  He wonders with no self-awareness, delusioned by the great earth, fascinated, mesmerized and blinded by the supposed greatness of the earth.

He boasts of his disbelief in death.  He shows kindness to his parents but causes evil to his neighbors and misery to the poor, saying,

"Who is equal to me!"

He charges interest, lives a frugal life, loiters about in a foolish manner, and lives a life like the useless poisonous tree.  He is a miserable sinner possessing treachery and witchcraft.  He fraudulently amasses wealth and buries it under the earth.  He is forgetful of Charity and offers no help to brothers, sisters, children and others.  He neither eats adequately nor clothes himself properly.

Such a miser will leave his body and enter the torturous hell.  The miser's relatives and people are displaced and his begotten son fearfully carries a begging bowl, loiters here and there, wandering about pleading for alms and searches for resting places in cemeteries and other places.

He recollects the lives of his parents and past generations while spending his days in lazy existence, helping himself to the morsels of food for which he sings daily.  He is unmindful of day or night. 

With disheveled appearance and unaware of the way of life, he becomes lazy, eats like the cattle thinking it is the best way to live and the best approach to attain the achievable.  He eats what he gets to develop his body.  He performs the ritualistic and ceremonial prayers, having eaten like a bull.

He voices the "O" sound and the "Ah" sound of the "Onkaram" as authority.  He thinks that within the raw mango is sourness, within the coconut is the kernel, within the stomach are the intestines, and inside the paddy is the grain.

"Is this not all true?" says the Swami.

"The darkness of ignorance can dispel sorrow and change it into a state of happiness and cause the eye to resplend.  It is surely the night. Dawn will be the day". 

"All what I said is reasonable, isn't it?  Tomorrow will be a happy day if you realize it.  It is sorrowful to develop the destructive body.  What I said was about earthly happiness".

"On this earth there are many more pleasant Swamis". So saying he ends his sermon.

What shall I say about the characteristics of this third type of Swami?  Son, I have related to you the special features of the three types of Swamis.  Now I shall tell you about the characteristics of the fourth type of Swami, starting in the Next Chapter.  Listen.

His Holiness teaches His Children:

Disciple:

Swami, O Noble Guru, It is said that the world is great.  It is also extolled that there is a God for all the universes.  Swami, advise us.

People believe in God and have faith in Him.  Do they say this knowing the truth or knowing themselves?

Swami, please explain this to me.  How many swamis are there?

Guru:

Son, the term "Swami" is of great significanceIt is full of grace.  It refers to God.

"Swamiyar?" is a Question, that is, the Question, "Are you God for my life, are you the "Presence of God", the "Word of God" made flesh for my life, are you How we become "Swamiyar", for the benefit of all of the Creation of God, within God within us, and for a little while on the "outside" of us, for the benefit of our brothers and sisters, as this child has Now learned to do, that is, are you the fire of God that is Now burning in the world that we can Now fall into before we die, if we like, to truly die before death, to truly become Again "Our Oneness With" that we lost by Now becoming "our separation from", to truly Again become "Our Oneness" but this time with an Understanding of "Our Oneness", So it will never leave us again?

In this way, "Swami" has two meanings. First, "Swami" can refer to God, that is, to what God has given to you and to all of My Children for the salvation of your soul, that is, that God has give to you as your "Judgment and Salvation", as your Guru/Shaikh for your age and for your life, for all life, that is, as Jesus (peace be upon Him) having gotten off of His Cross, that is, with you liberated soul having joined as "One with" your awakened wisdom, in search of the Nur, the Light of your wisdom, by destroying the "anti-christ" within you, by destroying the "form of the satan" within you, that is, by transforming the "anti-christ" into the Christ within you, by transforming the "form of the satan" into the "Form of God" within you.

And Second, ordinary men too have the name "Swami", as a term of endearment used at home referring to a son, a child, or a loved one.  And the name "Swami" can be used as a derogatory term, for in truth there are "Swamis" who deserve contempt.

However, the "Main Point" is that the world is in the process of searching for a "True Swami" for the salvation of your soul, for the liberation of your soul from a "silent and formless" life, moving or roaming throughout you like breath, smoke, or vapor, animating the 7 hells within you, all of which is Now the two sections of your body below your chest, which is your stomach, which in truth is the world of jinns or beings of fire within you, or false destruction within you, and the section below your waist, which in truth is the world of demons or beings of water within you, or false creation within you.

And Now also animating your "current life" of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of yourself, all of which in truth is Now the "flower of hell" within you, the 8th hell within you that Now fills the handful of earth known as your heart, which in truth is the world of fairies or being of air within you, or false life, all animated and ruled over through the 7 openings in your head and by the 2 openings below, as the 9 planets of celestial being of the 12 signs of the Zodiac.

That is, with you Now being Ruled Over by the 9 Openings of your elemental body, all with "God's Permission", that is, until you "See God and Steady God" within you, that is, within your heart, and in this way, and only in this way, until you join in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to

"Close down the world of hell or demons within you,
The world of jinns within you,
and the world of fairies within you,
Re-open the World of Souls within you,
And then Open the Kingdom of God within you"

Such is the True Significance of the Term or Question "Swamiyar?", that is, Are you Now God for my life, Are you Now what God has given to me for my life, for the salvation and redemption of my life, before we die to the flesh, and have to enter the grave, and suffer the "Questioning of the Grave", and experience Qiyamah (the Standing Forth; the Day of Judgment", the Question that in truth the whole world is Now asking, whether you know it or not, and even whether you want it or not, for in truth "This Question" in truth is what Now defines and drives all life and all activity for your age.

And in truth the Answer to "This Question" is Now "Yes", for all of My Children, which in truth is Now Everyone in this age, the Answer is Now "Yes", is Now "Yes" we are "Swamiyar", the Answer is Now "Yes" for all of My Children, if you like, that is, "Yes", we are Now God for all life, "Yes" we are Now the Salvation and Redemption for all life, because "God has Now" Made It So", for your age and for all life, for in truth each of
My Children
Now have but to "Pick It Up", that is, to pick up your "True Birthright, your True Heritage, the True Destiny of your soul, which is God, which in truth is Now "Swamiya" for all of God's Creation, because God has Already Done "Everything Else" necessary to "Make It So", for you, if you like, and such is Now the "True Exaltedness" of your own life, of the life of all of My Children, if you like.

And in this way, The Choice is Now yours, not God's, that is to be "Swamiyar" for all of the Creation of God, within God within you, because God has already made His Choice, and He Chose "Oneness with You", and Now all you have to do is the same, that is, Now Choose "Oneness with God", that is, Now "Let Yourself Be God".   And That's It.  For Then "God Will Make It So".  Amen. Ok?

And in this way, the world is Now in the Process of Searching For God, that is, the world is Now Searching for Salvation and Redemption, is Now asking this One Question, "Swamiyar?", Everywhere and All The Time, which in truth is "The One Point" behind Everything that is Now happening in your life, in the life of all of My Children, in all life, No Matter How you are currently seeing or experiencing it, all of which is just your dream, is just your fate, is just what is written on your forehead by the Kalam or Pen, but beyond your dream is always this One Question, is this One Search, and each of My Children is the True Answer to this One Question, to this One Search, and that is for sure, and that One Answer is Now "Yes", Yes We Are God for you.

Please know this Now My Dearest Loving Children, and Start to Act Accordingly,
Start
to "Let Yourself be God", and then God will do Everything Else Necessary to "Make It So", and Yes, it is truly this simple.  How Else would God have made it?  Amen. Ok?

So Please join in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to Start to "Pick Up" this "Truth of your life" that truly defines each of My Children, that in truth "You and God" are One, and Start to "put down" the "falsehood of your life" that Now falsely defines each of My Children, that "you" and God are separate".  It is truly this simple.  Amen. Ok?

And in this way, the world is Now in the Process of Searching For God, for a True Swami, that is, the world is always saying this behind Everything that is Now happening in your life,  the world is always saying,

"Who is He? 
Could it be this "Swami" or that "Swami"? 
Could it be this "Person" or that "Person"?

And Unaware of who the "True Swami" is, that in truth He is "You", and has always been "You", and will always be "You", no matter what you say or do or think, because this is the "Truth of your life", because God has "Made It So" for your life, for all of My Children, both Now and Forever, the world continues to search for the "True Swami" the world over, all of which is like a "fish looking for water", or like a "bird looking for air", or like a "squirrel looking for earth", when in truth the "fish is water", and the "bird is air", and the "squirrel is earth", the world continues to act like it is very, very rare indeed for such a "True Swami" to be discovered and identified, because in the world, especially today, who is even truly asking the Question, "Who Am I?", when in your ignorance "you" already think you know "Who you are".  Right?

And for this reason each household will laughingly say that there is many a "True Swami", because in truth man has truly given up asking about the Living "Presence of God" and the Living "Word of God" Now for your age and for your life, and man has reduced even the idea of a "True Swami" to some earlier age, at least on the "outside" of yourself, and because man in his ignorance, and Now in his arrogance about his ignorance, thinks he knows "Who he is", So he is certainly not looking for "Himself', either on the "outside" of Himself and certainly not "within" Himself".

However, in truth there are still "Four Different Kinds of Swamis" that occur in the world, all of which "We" shall Now describe for you in this and subsequent Chapters, as "We" described for you in a similar way in previous Chapters, where "We" described the "Four Destructive Women" (Chapter 01), and the "Four False Gurus" (Chapter 04), and recently "We" described the "Four Types of Charity" (Chapter 15).

All of which provide some clarity about the "True Journey of Life" that gradually reveals the "True Swami" as "You", if you like, as well as gradually reveals the "True Wife" of the soul as "You", as well as reveals the "True Guru" of the "True Light on Earth" as "You", and as well as reveals the "True Charity" as "You", again, if you like, that is, that gradually reveals God within you, to God within you, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God, within God within you, and for a little while on the "outside" of you, for the benefit of your brothers and sisters, if you like, as this child has Now learned to do.  Amen. Ok?

That is, if you truly join in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to gradually cut away from "Yourself" everything that is Now covering the "True Swami" within each of My Children, that is, all of which in truth is the Journey of God within you to "separate from" God all that is Now "Separating God" from God within you, or for you to "Let Yourself Be God", or for you to "Let God Cure Himself of you", that is, to Let God cure Himself of your current life as "a person", as the "false fellowship" of "like minded people" who come together to talk and talk about Everything, including to talk about God, but never to become what you talk about, that is, never to "Become God".

That is, for you to Join in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to "Let God Cure Himself" of "you", of "you" Now living as the "Enemy of the soul", as the "anti-christ", that is, to "Let God Cure Himself" of "you" living a life of "separation and differences", of selfishness or sin, on the illusory "outside" of yourself, as if you are "separate from" God within you, as if you are "separate from" your brothers and sisters, and as if you are "separate from" the Creation of God, within God within you, all of which is "Just Not True".  Amen. Ok?

And "We" will start in this Chapter to describe the "Three Kinds of False Swamis", which in truth is Now your life of Arrogance, Karma, and Illusion, which in truth is Now your life as the "triple dirt", First on the "outside" of you as your "current life" of "separation and differences", and then within you as the "form of the satan", as the world of demons, the world of jinns, and the world of fairies that you have mistakenly opened in your ignorance, and that you are Now keeping open in your arrogance about your ignorance, all of which Must Now Leave You, all of which you must Now join in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to Close Down, and in this way to Re-Open the "World of souls", First on the "outside" of you and then within you, and then to Open the Kingdom of God within you, becoming True Man within God within you.

And then in subsequent Chapters "We" will describe the "One True Swami",
which in truth is God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, that is,
First on the "outside" of you as Three within the One, as "Your Triple Flame", as Now
Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), and then within you, as "Us" within Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within you, that is, as the One within the Three, allowing God to Pray to God, which is the Only True Prayer, the "Prayer of the One to the One who Is".

Allowing God to finish telling and bringing to Completion the First Part of God's Story, which is the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man", the First Part of God's Story, which is the "Story of True Man within God" within you, bringing it to Completion as True Man within God within you, if you like, allowing True Man to then tell and bring Completion the Second Part of God's Story, the Second Part which is the "Story of God within True Man", So in the End, there is "No Child Left Behind", So in the End, there is Nothing Still "Separating God" from God.  Amen. Ok?
  
That is, First "We" will describe the Three Swamis of "Falsehood", Next in this Chapter, that is, the Three Swamis of "Estimation", of "Imagination", and of "Pleasure", all of which in truth is the Swami of the "triple dirt" of "the satan", First on the "inside" of you as the elemental spirits within you, as the demon, the jinn, and the fairy, and then on the "outside" of you as Now "you", as Now "you" as the "Enemy of the soul", as Now "you" as the "anti-christ".

And then in subsedquent Chapters "We" will describe the One True Swami of "Truth", First on the "outside" of you as the True Disciple, and then within you as the "Triple Flame" of God, as Jesus (peace be upon Him) having gotten off of His Cross, having destroyed the "anti-christ", that is, having destroyed "you" by Revealing God to God within you, that by awakening the wisdom surrounding your soul, joined as "One with" your liberated soul, in search of the Nur, which is the Light of your wisdom.  Amen. Ok?

Now Lets briefly look in this Chapter at the Three Swamis of "Falsehood". 

First there is the Swami who travels the earth, saying,

"O God, you are my Savior!" 

He is the Swami who had lived a happy married life enjoying the worldly pleasures till adversity brought him poverty, harassment, and difficulties.  Harmed by his wife and children and despised by the world, he roams the forest and wonders in the desert

Second, there is another Swami who had lived a life of prosperity, had ruled many countries, had amassed great wealth, had traveled widely with wife and children, seen many things, heard of many things, consumed intoxicants and enjoyed life till he had lost all his possessions and incurred heavy losses.

Now, discarded by his wife and children, and also by his relatives and other people, he has none to inquire after him and look after him.  There is a saying,

"If a rich are ruined
They will not belong even to a dry pot"

So with a distorted mind and forgetful of the earth, he directs his mind the other way to ask,

"Is this the world? 
Is this how the end will be?

He beats his head and seeks refuge in the Primal One, saying,

"The world is false.
This birth is false.
My God is the Only True One"

So lamenting, he carries a bowl in his hand and becomes the Swami who begs for food.

And Then there is the Third False Swami.

"This is no birth for me", says the third type of Swami.  He wonders with no self-awareness, delusioned by the great earth, fascinated, mesmerized and blinded by the supposed greatness of the earth.

He boasts of his disbelief in death.  He shows kindness to his parents but causes evil to his neighbors and misery to the poor, saying,

"Who is equal to me!"

He charges interest, lives a frugal life, loiters about in a foolish manner, and lives a life like the useless poisonous tree.  He is a miserable sinner possessing treachery and witchcraft.  He fraudulently amasses wealth and buries it under the earth.  He is forgetful of Charity and offers no help to brothers, sisters, children and others.  He neither eats adequately nor clothes himself properly.

Such a miser will leave his body and enter the torturous hell.  The miser's relatives and people are displaced and his begotten son fearfully carries a begging bowl, loiters here and there, wandering about pleading for alms and searches for resting places in cemeteries and other places.

He recollects the lives of his parents and past generations while spending his days in lazy existence, helping himself to the morsels of food for which he sings daily.  He is unmindful of day or night. 

With disheveled appearance and unaware of the way of life, he becomes lazy, eats like the cattle thinking it is the best way to live and the best approach to attain the achievable.  He eats what he gets to develop his body.  He performs the ritualistic and ceremonial prayers, having eaten like a bull.

He voices the "O" sound and the "Ah" sound of the "Onkaram" as authority.  He thinks that within the raw mango is sourness, within the coconut is the kernel, within the stomach are the intestines, and inside the paddy is the grain.

"Is this not all true?" says the Swami.

         "The darkness of ignorance can dispel sorrow and change it into a state of
         happiness and cause the eye to resplend.  It is surely the night. Dawn will be
         the day". 

         "All what I said is reasonable, isn't it?  Tomorrow will be a happy day if you
         realize it.  It is sorrowful to develop the destructive body.  What I said was about
         earthly happiness".

         "On this earth there are many more pleasant Swamis". 

So saying he ends his sermon.

What shall I say about the characteristics of this third type of Swami?  Son, I have related to you the special features of the three types of "False Swamis". 

Now I shall tell you about the characteristics of the fourth type of Swami, about the One "True Swami" of "Truth" hidden within the Three False Swamis of "Falsehood", that is, the Swami who is hidden within each of My Children, if you like, like the apple tree and its fruits is hidden within the apple seed, if the apple seed likes, for like all people, not all apple seeds germinate the "their truth", some reject "their truth" and fail to geminate, only to rot and eventually die in the earth, taking on 105 million rebirths, but never again as an apple seed, never again as the "Story of the Tree", which is the Story of the "Oneness of the apple seed, that apple tree, and the apple fruits", a Story that the apple seed came to the earth, to join as "One with" the earth, to tell.

And such is "Your Truth" hidden within "your fasehood", that is, as the "Triple Flame" hidden within the "triple dirt", that is, as Your Next Life as "One with", Here and Now, that is Now hidden within your "current life" of "separate from" on the illusory "outside" of you, that is, Your Next Life" which is just waiting for you to "germinate" to "Your Truth", that in truth "You and God" are One, if you like, all of which "We" will start to describe in the Next Chapter.   So, please Listen.

His Holiness teaches His Children:

Disciple:

Swami, O Noble Guru, It is said that the world is great.  It is also extolled that there is a God for all the universes.  Swami, advise us.

People believe in God and have faith in Him.  Do they say this knowing the truth or knowing themselves?

Swami, please explain this to me.  How many swamis are there?

Guru:

Son, the term "Swami" is of great significanceIt is full of grace.  It refers to God.

"Swamiyar?" is a Question. "Swami" has two meanings. First, "Swami" can refer to God.  Ordinary men too have the name "Swami", as a term of endearment used at home referring to a son, a child, or a loved one.  And the name "Swami" can be used as a derogatory term, for in truth there are "Swamis" who deserve contempt.

However the world is in the process of searching for a "True Swami", saying,

"Who is He? 
Could it be this "Swami" or that "Swami"? 

Unaware of the "True Swami", the search continues for the "True Swami" the world over.  It is very, very rare indeed for such a "True Swami" to be discovered and identified.  Each household will laughingly say that there is many a "True Swami".

However, there are "Four Different Kinds of Swamis".  I shall describe them.  Listen

First there is the Swami who travels the earth, saying,

"O God, you are my Savior!" 

He is the Swami who had lived a happy married life enjoying the worldly pleasures till adversity brought him poverty, harassment, and difficulties.  Harmed by his wife and children and despised by the world, he roams the forest and wonders in the desert

Second, there is another Swami who had lived a life of prosperity, had ruled many countries, had amassed great wealth, had traveled widely with wife and children, seen many things, heard of many things, consumed intoxicants and enjoyed life till he had lost all his possessions and incurred heavy losses.

Now, discarded by his wife and children, and also by his relatives and other people, he has none to inquire after him and look after him.  There is a saying,

"If a rich are ruined
They will not belong even to a dry pot"

So with a distorted mind and forgetful of the earth, he directs his mind the other way to ask,

"Is this the world? 
Is this how the end will be?

He beats his head and seeks refuge in the Primal One, saying,

"The world is false.
This birth is false.
My God is the Only True One"

So lamenting, he carries a bowl in his hand and becomes the Swami who begs for food.

And Then there is the Third False Swami.

"This is no birth for me", says the third type of Swami.  He wonders with no self-awareness, delusioned by the great earth, fascinated, mesmerized and blinded by the supposed greatness of the earth.

He boasts of his disbelief in death.  He shows kindness to his parents but causes evil to his neighbors and misery to the poor, saying,

"Who is equal to me!"

He charges interest, lives a frugal life, loiters about in a foolish manner, and lives a life like the useless poisonous tree.  He is a miserable sinner possessing treachery and witchcraft.  He fraudulently amasses wealth and buries it under the earth.  He is forgetful of Charity and offers no help to brothers, sisters, children and others.  He neither eats adequately nor clothes himself properly.

Such a miser will leave his body and enter the torturous hell.  The miser's relatives and people are displaced and his begotten son fearfully carries a begging bowl, loiters here and there, wandering about pleading for alms and searches for resting places in cemeteries and other places.

He recollects the lives of his parents and past generations while spending his days in lazy existence, helping himself to the morsels of food for which he sings daily.  He is unmindful of day or night. 

With disheveled appearance and unaware of the way of life, he becomes lazy, eats like the cattle thinking it is the best way to live and the best approach to attain the achievable.  He eats what he gets to develop his body.  He performs the ritualistic and ceremonial prayers, having eaten like a bull.

He voices the "O" sound and the "Ah" sound of the "Onkaram" as authority.  He thinks that within the raw mango is sourness, within the coconut is the kernel, within the stomach are the intestines, and inside the paddy is the grain.

"Is this not all true?" says the Swami.


        "The darkness of ignorance can dispel sorrow and change it into a state of
         happiness and cause the eye to resplend.  It is surely the night. Dawn will be
         the day". 

         "All what I said is reasonable, isn't it?  Tomorrow will be a happy day if you
         realize it.  It is sorrowful to develop the destructive body.  What I said was about
         earthly happiness".

         "On this earth there are many more pleasant Swamis". 

So saying he ends his sermon.

What shall I say about the characteristics of this third type of Swami?  Son, I have related to you the special features of the three types of "False Swamis". 

Now I shall tell you about the characteristics of the fourth type of Swami, all of which "We" will start to describe in the Next Chapter.  So, please Listen.

Longer Title of Spiritual Letter:

Son, the term "Swami" is of great significance.  It is full of grace. 
It refers to God.

"Swamiyar?" is a Question, that is, the Question, "Are you God for my life, are you the "Presence of God", the "Word of God" made flesh for my life, are you How we become "Swamiyar", how we become God, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God, within God within us, and for a little while on the "outside" of us, for the benefit of our brothers and sisters, as this child has Now learned to do.

That is, are you the "Fire of God that is Now burning in the world
that we can Now "Fall Into"
before we die, if we like, to truly die before death, to truly become Again "Our Oneness With" that we lost by Now becoming "our separation from", to truly Again become "Our Oneness With" but this time with an Understanding of "Our Oneness With", So it will never leave us again? - M. R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.)".

Bawa.  Here is Page 1 of 1 of the E-mail Version of a "Beautiful Review" of Chapter 16, "The Different Types of Swamis" (www.SpiritualBook002Chap16.homestead.
com), in the beautiful book of wisdom, "The Pearl of Wisdom" (www.ThePearlOf
Wisdom.homestead.com), by His Holiness, M. R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us), for your reading and hopefully for your sharing enjoyment. Amen. Ok?

Bawa.  A beautiful Spiritual Letter to each of My Children, who in truth is My Dearest Loving Son or Daughter Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be please with Him, and with Us), if you like, that is, if you look through the eyes of your Shaikh, of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), which are the 99 wilayats or powers of God within you, that is, are the 99 beautiful names of God in the Asma'el Husna within you, which in truth are the windows of your heart, if you like, through which everything in the 18,000 Universes within you can Now be seen, and understood, again, if you like, but this time within you, for in truth the Choice is yours, not God's. That is, the Choice of whether any of "The Truth and Reality of You" happens within you, or not, in your lifetime. Amen.

Bawa.  And in this way, a beautiful Spiritual Letter from God within My Children to God within My Children, which in truth is everyone living in your age, if you like, that is, if your true intention for the life within you, that is, for your soul life, for your 6th life, for your Light Life within you, which is Jesus (peace be upon Him) within you, is to again become "One with" God within you, or at least to truly Start to, in partnership with God within you, before you die to the flesh.

Bawa.  And in this way, and only in this way, you can avoid the consequences of your current life of "selfishness" in the world, of "separation from", all of which in truth is an eternal life of hell within you, that is, an eternal life within you as "separate from" God within you, for in truth,

"Hell Is Simply The Realization
That you have "separated yourself" From God within you,
Which in truth means that you have
Separated "yourself " From "Yourself" within you,
From Your Higher Self within you, If You Are Not Wise,
If You Don't Again Become One With God within you,
Before you die to the flesh,
But this time with an Understanding
Of Who "You Already Are",
So "Your Oneness" will never leave you Again,
Because in truth the Choice is yours, not God's"

Bawa.  All of which can only be avoided in your lifetime if you are wise, that is, if you wise up before it is too late, that is, if you Start to live as "One with" God, if you Start to demonstrate God to God within you, which in truth is the True Disciple, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, as this child has Now learned to do.

Bawa.  And that this child learned to do when Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) was still living in the world, First on the "outside" of me and then within me, becoming "One with" the One True Child of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), all of which all of My Children can still do, if you like, but Now by becoming "One with" the One True Child of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), that is, by Now using Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us) As Now "Us" for My Children, as Now your Father, your Shaikh, and your Guru, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, if you like.

Bawa.  So in the End you don't get an eternal life within you as "separate from" God within you, which in truth is the true result of the "current life and state" of all of My Children, So in the End you don't get some illusory heaven on another "outside" of yourself, as My Children still mistakenly believe. 

Bawa.  But instead, you become "One with" God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, if you like, but this time with you doing it using Our Dearest Loving Son, and your brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us) as "Us", as Now your Father, your Shaikh, and your Guru, First on the "outside" of you as your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), and then within you as "Us", as Now Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within you.

Bawa.  And if you do, that is, if you truly learn How To Do this "Hearts Work" correctly, before you die to the flesh, or at least Truly Start to, then your soul life, which is Jesus (peace be upon), your 6th life within you, will "Become Free".

Bawa.  For in truth all that is Now Stopping "This Freedom of the soul", is
"you", is Now your "current form and state", all of which in truth is Now "you" as "the form and state of the satan", which in truth is Now "you" as the "anti-christ", which is Now "you" as Jesus (peace be upon Him) crucified on His Cross, with the 5 nails of "your desire" to live on the illusory "outside" of yourself as "separate from, that is, as a life of selfishness, of sin, of "separation and differences", that is, with "you" Now living as if you are "separate from" God within you, as if you are "separate from" your brothers and sisters, and as if you are "separate from" the Creation of God, within God within you, all of which is "Just Not True".

Bawa.  And Only in this way will you truly become successful in your lifetime,
My Dearest Loving Children
, that is, Only in this way will "You" as "One with" Us,
with "You" as "One with" God, will "You" as Jesus (A.S.) get off of Your Cross
, by Letting "Us" destroy the "anti-christ", that is, by Letting "Us" destroy "you" as "separate from", and reveal "You" as "One with".

Bawa. Only in this way will You Learn Again How To Live as God's Purity, joined as "One with" God's Consciousness, in search of God's Light, but this time for eternity, but this time with an Understanding of "Your Oneness", so it will never leave "You" again. Amen.

Bawa.  And in this way, this "Spiritual Letter 152" on the "True Meaning of the Word Swamiyar" is "A True Love Letter" to Our Dearest Loving Son and Daughter Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) Now living at the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship, both within you and for a little while on the "outside" of you.

Bawa.  "A True Love Letter" To the "Inner Heart" and From the "Outer Heart" of all
of My Children, that is, To your "Inner Heart" within you, which in truth is Now the True Fellowship within all of My Children, which in truth is Now "Us" living within "Your Wisdom", which in truth is Now "Us" living within Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within you.

Bawa.  And "A True Love Letter" From your "Outer Heart", for a little while on the "outside" of you, which in truth is Now the heart of Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him, and with Us), if you like, in whom "We are well pleased".

Bawa.  Therefore, "A True Love Letter" that you can Only Send To "Us", by you Now Learning How To Become "One with" God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, by you First Learning How To Become "One with" Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), First on the "outside" of you and then within you, if you like, because in truth,

"What is Separating you from God,
Is what is Separating you from each other,
And what is Separating you from each other,
Is what is Separating you from God"  Amen.

Bawa.  And a beautiful Spiritual Letter which "We" have also given the following

"Join As "One With" Us On The "Outside" of You
To Become "One With" Us Within You,
In Order To Truly Become "One With" God Within You,
In Order To
Truly Understand
"Who You Already Are",
And "Where You Already Are",
And "What Is Already Happening" In Your Life,
While You Still Can,
Before This Kind of Understanding
Is No Longer Available To You,
Because You Have Become
What God Has Discarded From Himself,
In Order To Become God Within You.
That Is,
To Truly Understand
"What Can Truly Return To God Within You",
Because It Is What Truly Came Here From God Within You,
And To Truly Understand
"What Cannot Return To God Within You",
Because It Is What Truly Grew Here,
As The Lives of Darkness and Evil Within You,
And Really Has No Interest In Returning To God Within You,
No Matter What It Might Tell You To The Contrary.
And To Truly Understand This Choice,
And What Will Help You Make The Correct Choice,
Which In Truth Is Only God Within You,
And For A Little While God On The "Outside" of You,
And What Won't Help You Make The Correct Choice,
Which Is Everything Else,
No Matter How It Is Currently Decorated
On the Illusory "Outside" of You,
And No Matter How it Currently Speaks To You
As Your Thoughts Disguised As Wisdom.
And Start To Understand Everything
From God's Perspective
As "One with" Everyone and Everything,
As God Witnessing God Tell And Bring To Completion
His Story Within Him
For the Benefit of all of the Creation of God Within Him,
And For a Little While On the "Outside" of You
For The Benefit of Your Brothers and Sisters,
As This Child Has Now Learned To Do.
And Stop All of Your Current Activity
Of Trying To Understand Everything
From Your Prospective
As "Separate From" Everyone and Everything,
As "Your Story" On the "Outside" of You,
For Your Benefit,
Not For The Benefit of Anyone Or Anything Else.
Amen. Ok?"

Bawa.  A Spiritual Letter from God within us all, to the Children of God for this age, which continues to "outline" for you what most of My Children are currently doing wrong, and how to correct their mistake using My Children, that is, using Those of
My Children
who have truly learned from "Us" how to do it right, that is, who have truly learned "How not to be there, So God can be there", So in the end, there will be "No Child Left Behind" within you, that is, there will be nothing still "separating God" from God within you.

Bawa.  May God all the peace, the beneficence, and the blessing of God be upon all
of My Children.  May God help all of My Children.  May God be pleased with all of
My Children
.  Amen.

Bawa. My love you - Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Us, and with Him). Amen.

3-1.  The Swami of Estimation - is the Swami of "Earth joined with Water", or of "False Creation", or "false form", all which in truth is the life of the demon, focused on "False Creation" and on Estimation, on the "illusory place of birth", all of which in truth is Now your life as experience Below Your Waist, only for the earth joined with water to "let you down" later in your life, realizing in the end that, "When I trusted the earth, I was deceived, When I desired women, I was a demon"

Summary of Topic 01:

Bawa. To Truly Believe In God You Need Understanding, that is, you First need
to know the difference between the "Truth of God" and the "falsehood of the  world",
and then you need to Start to believe in and actively embrace the "Truth of God", and
to Stop believing in and actively reject the "falsehood of the world" in everything that
you "Say, or Do, or Write", as this child has Now learned to do.

Bawa.  And to do this by invoking the "Truth of God" which is "God's Presence"
and "God's Words" within you, before you "Say, or Do, or Write" anything, as this child has Now learned to do, all of which for your age and for your life, for all life, is
Now "you" invoking the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within you, by
"you" saying the Name of your Shaikh/Guru, by "you" saying the Word "Bawa", or
"Bawa Muhaiyaddeen", or "Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen"
(Ral.), before you "Say, or Do, or Write" anything, as this child has Now learned to do.

Bawa.  And then, if you do, if you do this, as Bawa told all of His Children to do,
when He was living in the world as Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), and Now as Shaikh
Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) is Again telling you to do, Now as His Children, if you like,
then God within you will do Everything Else, everything else necessary to make your life truly successful in your lifetime, and that is for sure.  Amen.  Ok?

Expanded Summary of Topic 01:

Bawa. To say that "The world is great and that there is a God for all the universes" is not enough, because to just say it is not to Understand It, and to not Understand it, is most certainly not to "Become it", because in truth to just say it is just two worldly statements, statements that anyone in the world can make, but by themselves these two statements do not constitute true belief and faith in God. 

Bawa.  For that, for true belief and faith in God, you need something more, for that you need Understanding of both God and of the world, specifically, you need an Understanding of the difference or the Contrast between the "Truth of God" and the "falsehood of the world".  Only then can you Start to transcend "your falsehood", if you like, and Start to become "Your Truth", if you like, that is, the truth that "Man and God are One".

Bawa. For example, people say that they believe in God and that they have faith in God, but do they believe in God knowing the truth of God and knowing the falsehood of the world, for to truly believe in God you must First know the difference between the truth of God, and the falsehood of the world, and then Start to believe in the truth of God, and Start to reject the falsehood of the world, otherwise your belief in God, your faith in God, is just another reflection of your hypocrisy, that is, of you "saying one thing but of you doing another".

Bawa. Otherwise your belief and faith in God is just like a parent's belief in Santa Clause, that is, belief for the sake of the parents selfish need to please the child, rather than God's Selfless Love to truly "Guide the child" away from "faith and belief in the world", or in Santa Clause, or in "the satan", and toward "True Belief and Faith in God", all of which in truth is just faith in the falsehood of a child's life, all of which in truth is just the world the child is born into, from his mother's womb, as the "child of his parents", a world which in truth is the "form of the satan" or the illusory world on the "outside" of all of My Children.

Bawa.  And instead to Join in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you
and then within you, to truly "Guide the child" toward "true belief and faith in God".

Bawa  All of which truly Starts with the Parents belief and faith and trust in the truth of the child's life, that is, of their life "as the child", and all of which truly Starts
with your belief and faith and trust in the world that you "as the child" came from as a soul, which is the "World of souls" within you, that is, with you "as the child" coming from the "World of souls" as a "Ray of the Light of God", as the "Child of God's", coming First to the "Form of Adam" (peace be upon Him), which in truth is the Original "Form of God" for your life, all of which you "as the child" First experiences as the "womb of your mother", that is, as your "True Country", before you "as the child" came into the "earth world" within you, that is, into your "false country".

Bawa.  That is, into your "false country" which in truth all of My Children Now mistakenly place their belief, and faith, and trust in, but which in truth is the illusory "outside" of all of My Children, that is, when each of My Children upon appearing on this earth world, that is, upon "falling out of the mothers womb", then "Forgets God" and falls into many a trap, coming to the "current state" of all of My Children, where you no longer know to "Seek Yourself within Yourself", although God exists within man.

Bawa.  But a world, that is, the world of the child's "True Country", which in truth is the world of his mother's womb, all of which is Now hidden within all of My Children, but that My Children must Now Join as "One with" God within you to "Re-open" within you, and then to "Open" the Kingdom of God hidden within the "Re-opened" World of souls within you, and to do this, or at least to truly Start to do this, in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you, as Now Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), and then
within you as "Us" within
Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within you, and to do this Now, Here and Now, or at least truly Start To, in Partnership with God, before you die to the flesh.

Bawa. A world which was earlier known as the "World of souls" within you,
that is, before you came to the First of God's Schools within you, to the "School of Contrast" within you, to Understand who "You Already Are", by First learning about what is Now "Separating You From God", because in truth Understanding only occurs through Contrast, So before you die to the flesh, you can graduate from this First of God's Schools within you, this "School of Contrast", having Now Joined in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to "cut away" everything that is Now separating all of My Children from God within you, which in truth is "you", which is your "current life" as "separate from", and reveal your "Next Life" as "One with", Here and Now, which is You as the "Child of Light" hidden within "you" as the "child of darkness", and in this way, with "You" Now Ready to go to the Next of God's Schools within you, that is, to the "School of Light" within you, where God will teach God about God within you.

Bawa.  All of which requires "you" to Now Join In Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to "Re-open" the "World of souls" as "One with" within you, all of which Now lies hidden within all of My Children, by you Now joining in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, that is, to "close down" your "current life" as "separate from" within you, which in truth is the "world of hell or demons" within you, and the "world of jinns" within you, and the "world of fairies" within you, which in truth is the three "current sections" of your body below your head, that is, the section below your waist or false creation, your stomach or false destruction, and the section of your chest, which is false life, or impure spirits.

Bawa.  And to do this, that is, to "Re-open" the "World of souls" within you before you die to the flesh, that is, before the illusory "outside" of you is over, because Only then will your life become truly successful in your lifetime, that is, Only then will you reach success in your lifetime, when you are again living in the "Re-opened" World of souls, as the Qutb of God within you, as the Qutbiyyat of God, which is your "6th level of wisdom", the wisdom that explains, or Divine Analytic Wisdom, before you die to the flesh, or at least truly Start to "Re-open" it before the illusory "outside" of you is over, will My Children be able to transcend death, be able to survive the grave.

Bawa.  That is, Only In This Way will any of My Children be able to truly survive or transcend your death and the "suffering of the grave" without being destroyed at the grave site, that is, Only In This Way will any of My Children be able to miss or skip the "suffering of the grave" and Qiyamah (the Standing Forth; the Day of Judgment", that occurs after you die to the flesh, if you are not wise, that is, all of which will most certainly come to all of My Children if "you are not wise", that is, if you don't wise up before it is too late, that is, before this temporary school of Contrast is over, So you can successfully graduate from this "First of God's Schools", by letting God reveal God to God, that is, by letting God "Use Your Life" to "Reveal the Child of Light" that is Now hidden within "you" as the "child of darkness", while God still can, that is, while you are still living in the world, and that is for sure.  Amen. Ok?

Bawa.  Because Only then, that is, Only if you truly become the "Child of Light" as "One with" which is Now hidden within the "child of darkness" as "separate from", within each of My Children, will you be able to transcend the "suffering of the grave" and Qiyamah after the grave, because by becoming the "Child of Light" you will have become Qiyamah before the grave, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God, within God within you, and for a little while on the "outside" of you, for the benefit of all of your brothers and sisters, as this child has Now learned to do, and as the "Child of Light", after you die to the flesh, you will then immediate leave the grave to go off to the Next of God's Schools within you, having Now graduated from the School of Contrast within you, which is the School of Light within you, where God will teach God about God within you.

Bawa. Allowing God to return to God within you, from which He has Come,
allowing True Man to allow God to Complete the Story of God within you, which is the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man", within God within you, So in the End, "No Child Is Left Behind", so in the End, there is Nothing Still "Separating God from God" within you, and that is for sure.  Amen. Ok?

Bawa. Please reflect on these beautiful "Words of Grace, Wisdom, and 'Ilm",
My Dearest Loving Children, while you still can, at least a little bit, they could save you from an eternal life within you as "separate from" God within you, if you like.  Amen. Ok?

2-0.  The Four Kinds of Swamis

                                                            - go to "Text of Topic 02"
Summary of Topic 02:

Bawa.  The Four Kinds of "Swamis" are the Three Swamis of "Falsehood" and the One True Swami of "Truth", that is, the Three False Swamis of of "Estimation", of "Imagination", of "Pleasure", all of which in truth is the Swami of the "triple dirt" of "the satan", First on the "inside" of you as the elemental spirits within you, as the demon, the jinn, and the fairy, as the three sections that Now make up your body, that is, below the waist, your stomach, and your chest, all inimated and controlled by the 9 openings, 7 in your head and two below, and then on the "outside" of you, as Now "you", as Now "you" as the "Enemy of the soul", as Now "you" as the "anti-christ".

Bawa.  And then "You" as the One True Swami of "Truth", First on the "outside" of you as the True Disciple, and then within you as the "Triple Flame" of God within you, as then as Jesus (peace be upon Him) having gotten off of His Cross within you, having destroyed the "anti-christ", that is, having destroyed "you" and Revealed God to God within you.

                                                            - go to "Summary of Topic 02"
Text of Topic 02:

Guru:

Son, the term "Swami" is of great significance.  It is full of grace.  It refers to God.

"Swamiyar?" is a Question, that is, the Question, "Are you God for my life, are you the "Presence of God", the "Word of God" made flesh for my life, are you How we become "Swamiyar", for the benefit of all of the Creation of God, within God within us, and for a little while on the "outside" of us, for the benefit of our brothers and sisters, as this child has Now learned to do, that is, are you the fire of God that is Now burning in the world that we can Now fall into before we die, if we like, to truly die before death, to truly become Again "Our Oneness With" that we lost by Now becoming "our separation from", to truly Again become "Our Oneness" but this time with an Understanding of "Our Oneness", So it will never leave us again?

In this way, "Swami" has two meanings. First, "Swami" can refer to God, that is, to what God has given to you and to all of My Children for the salvation of your soul, that is, that God has give to you as your "Judgment and Salvation", as your Guru/Shaikh for your age and for your life, for all life, that is, as Jesus (peace be upon Him) having gotten off of His Cross, that is, with you liberated soul having joined as "One with" your awakened wisdom, in search of the Nur, the Light of your wisdom, by destroying the "anti-christ" within you, by destroying the "form of the satan" within you, that is, by transforming the "anti-christ" into the Christ within you, by transforming the "form of the satan" into the "Form of God" within you.

And Second, ordinary men too have the name "Swami", as a term of endearment used at home referring to a son, a child, or a loved one.  And the name "Swami" can be used as a derogatory term, for in truth there are "Swamis" who deserve contempt.

However, the "Main Point" is that the world is in the process of searching for a "True Swami" for the salvation of your soul, for the liberation of your soul from a "silent and formless" life, moving or roaming throughout you like breath, smoke, or vapor, animating the 7 hells within you, all of which is Now the two sections of your body below your chest, which is your stomach, which in truth is the world of jinns or beings of fire within you, or false destruction within you, and the section below your waist, which in truth is the world of demons or beings of water within you, or false creation within you.

And Now also animating your "current life" of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of yourself, all of which in truth is Now the "flower of hell" within you, the 8th hell within you that Now fills the handful of earth known as your heart, which in truth is the world of fairies or being of air within you, or false life, all animated and ruled over through the 7 openings in your head and by the 2 openings below, as the 9 planets of celestial being of the 12 signs of the Zodiac.

That is, with you Now being Ruled Over by the 9 Openings of your elemental body, all with "God's Permission", that is, until you "See God and Steady God" within you, that is, within your heart, and in this way, and only in this way, until you join in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to

"Close down the world of hell or demons within you,
The world of jinns within you,
and the world of fairies within you,
Re-open the World of Souls within you,
And then Open the Kingdom of God within you"

Such is the True Significance of the Term or Question "Swamiyar?", that is, Are you Now God for my life, Are you Now what God has given to me for my life, for the salvation and redemption of my life, before we die to the flesh, and have to enter the grave, and suffer the "Questioning of the Grave", and experience Qiyamah (the Standing Forth; the Day of Judgment", the Question that in truth the whole world is Now asking, whether you know it or not, and even whether you want it or not, for in truth "This Question" in truth is what Now defines and drives all life and all activity for your age.

And in truth the Answer to "This Question" is Now "Yes", for all of My Children,
which in truth is Now Everyone in this age,
the Answer is Now "Yes", is Now "Yes" we are "Swamiyar", the Answer is Now "Yes" for all of My Children, if you like, that is, "Yes", we are Now God for all life, "Yes" we are Now the Salvation and Redemption for all life, because "God has Now" Made It So", for your age and for all life, for in truth each of My Children Now have but to "Pick It Up", that is, to pick up your "True Birthright, your True Heritage, the True Destiny of your soul, which is God, which in truth is Now "Swamiya" for all of God's Creation, because God has Already Done "Everything Else" necessary to "Make It So", for you, if you like, and such is Now the "True Exaltedness" of your own life, of the life of all of My Children, if you like. 

And in this way, The Choice is Now yours, not God's, that is, the Choice to be "Swamiyar" for all of the Creation of God, within God within you, because God has already made His Choice, and He Chose "Oneness with You", and Now all you have to do is the same, that is, Now Choose "Oneness with God", that is, Now "Let Yourself Be God".   And That's It.  For Then "God Will Make It So".  Amen. Ok?

And in this way, the world is Now in the Process of Searching For God, that is, the world is Now Searching for Salvation and Redemption, is Now asking this One Question, "Swamiyar?", Everywhere and All The Time, which in truth is "The One Point" behind Everything that is Now happening in your life, in the life of all of My Children, in all life, No Matter How you are currently seeing or experiencing it, all of which is just your dream, is just your fate, is just what is written on your forehead by the Kalam or Pen, but beyond your dream is always this One Question, is this One Search, and each of My Children is the True Answer to this One Question, to this One Search, and that is for sure, and that One Answer is Now "Yes", Yes We Are God for you.

Please know this Now My Dearest Loving Children, and Start to Act Accordingly,
Start
to "Let Yourself be God", and then God will do Everything Else Necessary to "Make It So", and Yes, it is truly this simple.  How Else would God have made it?  Amen. Ok?

So Please join in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to Start to "Pick Up" this "Truth of your life" that truly defines each of My Children, that in truth "You and God" are One, and Start to "put down" the "falsehood of your life" that Now falsely defines each of My Children, that "you" and God are separate".  It is truly this simple.  Amen. Ok?

And in this way, the world is Now in the Process of Searching For God, for a True Swami, that is, the world is always saying this behind Everything that is Now happening in your life,  the world is always saying,

"Who is He? 
Could it be this "Swami" or that "Swami"? 
Could it be this "Person" or that "Person"?

And Unaware of who the "True Swami" is, that in truth He is "You", and has always been "You", and will always be "You", no matter what you say or do or think, because this is the "Truth of your life", because God has "Made It So" for your life, for all of My Children, both Now and Forever, the world continues to search for the "True Swami" the world over, all of which is like a "fish looking for water", or like a "bird looking for air", or like a "squirrel looking for earth", when in truth the "fish is water", and the "bird is air", and the "squirrel is earth", the world continues to act like it is very, very rare indeed for such a "True Swami" to be discovered and identified, because in the world, especially today, who is even truly asking the Question, "Who Am I?", when in your ignorance "you" already think you know "Who you are".  Right?

And for this reason each household will laughingly say that there is many a "True Swami", because in truth man has truly given up asking about the Living "Presence of God" and the Living "Word of God" Now for your age and for your life, and man has reduced even the idea of a "True Swami" to some earlier age, at least on the "outside" of yourself, and because man in his ignorance, and Now in his arrogance about his ignorance, thinks he knows "Who he is", So he is certainly not looking for "Himself', either on the "outside" of Himself and certainly not "within" Himself".

However, in truth there are still "Four Different Kinds of Swamis" that occur in the world, all of which "We" shall Now describe for you in this and subsequent Chapters, as "We" described for you in a similar way in previous Chapters, where "We" described the "Four Destructive Women" (Chapter 01), and the "Four False Gurus" (Chapter 04), and recently "We" described the "Four Types of Charity" (Chapter 15).

All of which provide some clarity about the "True Journey of Life" that gradually reveals the "True Swami" as "You", if you like, as well as gradually reveals the "True Wife" of the soul as "You", as well as reveals the "True Guru" of the "True Light on Earth" as "You", and as well as reveals the "True Charity" as "You", again, if you like, that is, that gradually reveals God within you, to God within you, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God, within God within you, and for a little while on the "outside" of you, for the benefit of your brothers and sisters, if you like, as this child has Now learned to do.  Amen. Ok?

That is, if you truly join in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to gradually cut away from "Yourself" everything that is Now covering the "True Swami" within each of My Children, that is, all of which in truth is the Journey of God within you to "separate from" God all that is Now "Separating God" from God within you, or for you to "Let Yourself Be God", or for you to "Let God Cure Himself of you", that is, to Let God cure Himself of your current life as "a person", as the "false fellowship" of "like minded people" who come together to talk and talk about Everything, including to talk about God, but never to become what you talk about, that is, never to "Become God".

That is, for you to Join in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to "Let God Cure Himself" of "you", of "you" Now living as the "Enemy of the soul", as the "anti-christ", that is, to "Let God Cure Himself" of "you" living a life of "separation and differences", of selfishness or sin, on the illusory "outside" of yourself, as if you are "separate from" God within you, as if you are "separate from" your brothers and sisters, and as if you are "separate from" the Creation of God, within God within you, all of which is "Just Not True".  Amen. Ok?

And "We" will Start in this Chapter to describe the Three Kinds of False Swamis, which in truth is Now your life of Arrogance, Karma, and Illusion, which in truth is Now your life as the "triple dirt", First on the "outside" of you as your "current life" of "separation and differences", and then within you as the "form of the satan", as the world of demons, the world of jinns, and the world of fairies that you have mistakenly opened in your ignorance, and that you are Now keeping open in your arrogance about your ignorance, all of which Must Now Leave You, all of which you must Now join in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to Close Down, and in this way to Re-Open the "World of souls", First on the "outside" of you and then within you, and then to Open the Kingdom of God within you, becoming True Man within God within you.

And then in subsequent Chapters "We" will describe the One True Swami, which in truth is God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, that is, First on the "outside" of you as Three within the One, as "Your Triple Flame", as Now Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), in whom "We are well Pleased", and then within you, as "Us" within Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within you, that is, as the One within the Three, allowing God to Pray to God, which is the Only True Prayer, the "Prayer of the One to the One who Is".

Allowing God to finish telling and bringing to Completion the First Part of God's Story, which is the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man", the First Part of God's Story, which is the "Story of True Man within God" within you, bringing it to Completion as True Man within God within you, if you like, allowing True Man to then tell and bring Completion the Second Part of God's Story, the Second Part which is the "Story of God within True Man", So in the End, there is "No Child Left Behind", So in the End, there is Nothing Still "Separating God" from God.  Amen. Ok?
   
That is, First "We" will describe the Three Swamis of "Falsehood", Next in this Chapter, that is, the Three Swamis of "Estimation", of "Imagination", and of "Pleasure", all of which in truth is the Swami of the "triple dirt" of "the satan", First on the "inside" of you as the elemental spirits within you, as the demon, the jinn, and the fairy, and then on the "outside" of you as Now "you", as Now "you" as the "Enemy of the soul", as Now "you" as the "anti-christ".

And then in subsedquent Chapters "We" will describe the One True Swami of "Truth", First on the "outside" of you as the True Disciple, and then within you as the "Triple Flame" of God, as Jesus (peace be upon Him) having gotten off of His Cross, having destroyed the "anti-christ", that is, having destroyed "you" by Revealing God to God within you, that by awakening the wisdom surrounding your soul, joined as "One with" your liberated soul, in search of the Nur, which is the Light of your wisdom.  Amen. Ok?

He is another Swami who had lived a life of prosperity, had ruled many countries, had amassed great wealth, had traveled widely with wife and children, seen many things, heard of many things, consumed intoxicants and enjoyed life till he had lost all his possessions and incurred heavy losses.

Now, discarded by his wife and children, and also by his relatives and other people, he has none to inquire after him and look after him.  There is a saying,

"If a rich are ruined
They will not belong even to a dry pot"

So with a distorted mind and forgetful of the earth, he directs his mind the other way to ask,

"Is this the world? 
Is this how the end will be?

He beats his head and seeks refuge in the Primal One, saying,

"The world is false.
This birth is false.
My God is the Only True One"

So lamenting, he carries a bowl in his hand and becomes the Swami who begs for food.

Text of Topic 3-3:

"This is no birth for me", says the third type of Swami.  He wonders with no self-awareness, delusioned by the great earth, fascinated, mesmerized and blinded by the supposed greatness of the earth.

He boasts of his disbelief in death.  He shows kindness to his parents but causes evil to his neighbors and misery to the poor, saying,

"Who is equal to me!"

He charges interest, lives a frugal life, loiters about in a foolish manner, and lives a life like the useless poisonous tree.  He is a miserable sinner possessing treachery and witchcraft.  He fraudulently amasses wealth and buries it under the earth.  He is forgetful of Charity and offers no help to brothers, sisters, children and others.  He neither eats adequately nor clothes himself properly.

Such a miser will leave his body and enter the torturous hell.  The miser's relatives and people are displaced and his begotten son fearfully carries a begging bowl, loiters here and there, wandering about pleading for alms and searches for resting places in cemeteries and other places.

He recollects the lives of his parents and past generations while spending his days in lazy existence, helping himself to the morsels of food for which he sings daily.  He is unmindful of day or night. 

With disheveled appearance and unaware of the way of life, he becomes lazy, eats like the cattle thinking it is the best way to live and the best approach to attain the achievable.  He eats what he gets to develop his body.  He performs the ritualistic and ceremonial prayers, having eaten like a bull.

He voices the "O" sound and the "Ah" sound of the "Onkaram" as authority.  He thinks that within the raw mango is sourness, within the coconut is the kernel, within the stomach are the intestines, and inside the paddy is the grain.

"Is this not all true?" says the Swami.

"The darkness of ignorance can dispel sorrow and change it into a state of happiness and cause the eye to resplend.  It is surely the night. Dawn will be the day". 

"All what I said is reasonable, isn't it?  Tomorrow will be a happy day if you realize it.  It is sorrowful to develop the destructive body.  What I said was about earthly happiness".

"On this earth there are many more pleasant Swamis". So saying he ends his sermon.

What shall I say about the characteristics of this third type of Swami?  Son, I have related to you the special features of the three types of Swamis.  Now I shall tell you about the characteristics of the fourth type of Swami, starting in the Next Chapter.  Listen.

His Holiness teaches His Children:

Disciple:

Swami, O Noble Guru, It is said that the world is great.  It is also extolled that there is a God for all the universes.  Swami, advise us.

People believe in God and have faith in Him.  Do they say this knowing the truth or knowing themselves?

Swami, please explain this to me.  How many swamis are there?

Guru:

Son, the term "Swami" is of great significanceIt is full of grace.  It refers to God.

"Swamiyar?" is a Question, that is, the Question, "Are you God for my life, are you the "Presence of God", the "Word of God" made flesh for my life, are you How we become "Swamiyar", for the benefit of all of the Creation of God, within God within us, and for a little while on the "outside" of us, for the benefit of our brothers and sisters, as this child has Now learned to do, that is, are you the fire of God that is Now burning in the world that we can Now fall into before we die, if we like, to truly die before death, to truly become Again "Our Oneness With" that we lost by Now becoming "our separation from", to truly Again become "Our Oneness" but this time with an Understanding of "Our Oneness", So it will never leave us again?

In this way, "Swami" has two meanings. First, "Swami" can refer to God, that is, to what God has given to you and to all of My Children for the salvation of your soul, that is, that God has give to you as your "Judgment and Salvation", as your Guru/Shaikh for your age and for your life, for all life, that is, as Jesus (peace be upon Him) having gotten off of His Cross, that is, with you liberated soul having joined as "One with" your awakened wisdom, in search of the Nur, the Light of your wisdom, by destroying the "anti-christ" within you, by destroying the "form of the satan" within you, that is, by transforming the "anti-christ" into the Christ within you, by transforming the "form of the satan" into the "Form of God" within you.

And Second, ordinary men too have the name "Swami", as a term of endearment used at home referring to a son, a child, or a loved one.  And the name "Swami" can be used as a derogatory term, for in truth there are "Swamis" who deserve contempt.

However, the "Main Point" is that the world is in the process of searching for a "True Swami" for the salvation of your soul, for the liberation of your soul from a "silent and formless" life, moving or roaming throughout you like breath, smoke, or vapor, animating the 7 hells within you, all of which is Now the two sections of your body below your chest, which is your stomach, which in truth is the world of jinns or beings of fire within you, or false destruction within you, and the section below your waist, which in truth is the world of demons or beings of water within you, or false creation within you.

And Now also animating your "current life" of "separation and differences" on the illusory "outside" of yourself, all of which in truth is Now the "flower of hell" within you, the 8th hell within you that Now fills the handful of earth known as your heart, which in truth is the world of fairies or being of air within you, or false life, all animated and ruled over through the 7 openings in your head and by the 2 openings below, as the 9 planets of celestial being of the 12 signs of the Zodiac.

That is, with you Now being Ruled Over by the 9 Openings of your elemental body, all with "God's Permission", that is, until you "See God and Steady God" within you, that is, within your heart, and in this way, and only in this way, until you join in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to

"Close down the world of hell or demons within you,
The world of jinns within you,
and the world of fairies within you,
Re-open the World of Souls within you,
And then Open the Kingdom of God within you"

Such is the True Significance of the Term or Question "Swamiyar?", that is, Are you Now God for my life, Are you Now what God has given to me for my life, for the salvation and redemption of my life, before we die to the flesh, and have to enter the grave, and suffer the "Questioning of the Grave", and experience Qiyamah (the Standing Forth; the Day of Judgment", the Question that in truth the whole world is Now asking, whether you know it or not, and even whether you want it or not, for in truth "This Question" in truth is what Now defines and drives all life and all activity for your age.

And in truth the Answer to "This Question" is Now "Yes", for all of My Children, which in truth is Now Everyone in this age, the Answer is Now "Yes", is Now "Yes" we are "Swamiyar", the Answer is Now "Yes" for all of My Children, if you like, that is, "Yes", we are Now God for all life, "Yes" we are Now the Salvation and Redemption for all life, because "God has Now" Made It So", for your age and for all life, for in truth each of
My Children
Now have but to "Pick It Up", that is, to pick up your "True Birthright, your True Heritage, the True Destiny of your soul, which is God, which in truth is Now "Swamiya" for all of God's Creation, because God has Already Done "Everything Else" necessary to "Make It So", for you, if you like, and such is Now the "True Exaltedness" of your own life, of the life of all of My Children, if you like.

And in this way, The Choice is Now yours, not God's, that is to be "Swamiyar" for all of the Creation of God, within God within you, because God has already made His Choice, and He Chose "Oneness with You", and Now all you have to do is the same, that is, Now Choose "Oneness with God", that is, Now "Let Yourself Be God".   And That's It.  For Then "God Will Make It So".  Amen. Ok?

And in this way, the world is Now in the Process of Searching For God, that is, the world is Now Searching for Salvation and Redemption, is Now asking this One Question, "Swamiyar?", Everywhere and All The Time, which in truth is "The One Point" behind Everything that is Now happening in your life, in the life of all of My Children, in all life, No Matter How you are currently seeing or experiencing it, all of which is just your dream, is just your fate, is just what is written on your forehead by the Kalam or Pen, but beyond your dream is always this One Question, is this One Search, and each of My Children is the True Answer to this One Question, to this One Search, and that is for sure, and that One Answer is Now "Yes", Yes We Are God for you.

Please know this Now My Dearest Loving Children, and Start to Act Accordingly,
Start
to "Let Yourself be God", and then God will do Everything Else Necessary to "Make It So", and Yes, it is truly this simple.  How Else would God have made it?  Amen. Ok?

So Please join in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to Start to "Pick Up" this "Truth of your life" that truly defines each of My Children, that in truth "You and God" are One, and Start to "put down" the "falsehood of your life" that Now falsely defines each of My Children, that "you" and God are separate".  It is truly this simple.  Amen. Ok?

And in this way, the world is Now in the Process of Searching For God, for a True Swami, that is, the world is always saying this behind Everything that is Now happening in your life,  the world is always saying,

"Who is He? 
Could it be this "Swami" or that "Swami"? 
Could it be this "Person" or that "Person"?

And Unaware of who the "True Swami" is, that in truth He is "You", and has always been "You", and will always be "You", no matter what you say or do or think, because this is the "Truth of your life", because God has "Made It So" for your life, for all of My Children, both Now and Forever, the world continues to search for the "True Swami" the world over, all of which is like a "fish looking for water", or like a "bird looking for air", or like a "squirrel looking for earth", when in truth the "fish is water", and the "bird is air", and the "squirrel is earth", the world continues to act like it is very, very rare indeed for such a "True Swami" to be discovered and identified, because in the world, especially today, who is even truly asking the Question, "Who Am I?", when in your ignorance "you" already think you know "Who you are".  Right?

And for this reason each household will laughingly say that there is many a "True Swami", because in truth man has truly given up asking about the Living "Presence of God" and the Living "Word of God" Now for your age and for your life, and man has reduced even the idea of a "True Swami" to some earlier age, at least on the "outside" of yourself, and because man in his ignorance, and Now in his arrogance about his ignorance, thinks he knows "Who he is", So he is certainly not looking for "Himself', either on the "outside" of Himself and certainly not "within" Himself".

All of which provide some clarity about the "True Journey of Life" that gradually reveals the "True Swami" as "You", if you like, as well as gradually reveals the "True Wife" of the soul as "You", as well as reveals the "True Guru" of the "True Light on Earth" as "You", and as well as reveals the "True Charity" as "You", again, if you like, that is, that gradually reveals God within you, to God within you, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God, within God within you, and for a little while on the "outside" of you, for the benefit of your brothers and sisters, if you like, as this child has Now learned to do.  Amen. Ok?

That is, if you truly join in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to gradually cut away from "Yourself" everything that is Now covering the "True Swami" within each of My Children, that is, all of which in truth is the Journey of God within you to "separate from" God all that is Now "Separating God" from God within you, or for you to "Let Yourself Be God", or for you to "Let God Cure Himself of you", that is, to Let God cure Himself of your current life as "a person", as the "false fellowship" of "like minded people" who come together to talk and talk about Everything, including to talk about God, but never to become what you talk about, that is, never to "Become God".

Ok?

And "We" will start in this Chapter to describe the "Three Kinds of False Swamis", which in truth is Now your life of Arrogance, Karma, and Illusion, which in truth is Now your life as the "triple dirt", First on the "outside" of you as your "current life" of "separation and differences", and then within you as the "form of the satan", as the world of demons, the world of jinns, and the world of fairies that you have mistakenly opened in your ignorance, and that you are Now keeping open in your arrogance about your ignorance, all of which Must Now Leave You, all of which you must Now join in Partnership with God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, to Close Down, and in this way to Re-Open the "World of souls", First on the "outside" of you and then within you, and then to Open the Kingdom of God within you, becoming True Man within God within you.

And then in subsequent Chapters "We" will describe the "One True Swami",
which in truth is God, First on the "outside" of you and then within you, that is,
First on the "outside" of you as Three within the One, as "Your Triple Flame", as Now
Our Dearest Loving Son, and your dearest loving brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), and then within you, as "Us" within Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within you, that is, as the One within the Three, allowing God to Pray to God, which is the Only True Prayer, the "Prayer of the One to the One who Is".

Allowing God to finish telling and bringing to Completion the First Part of God's Story, which is the Story of the "Oneness of God and True Man", the First Part of God's Story, which is the "Story of True Man within God" within you, bringing it to Completion as True Man within God within you, if you like, allowing True Man to then tell and bring Completion the Second Part of God's Story, the Second Part which is the "Story of God within True Man", So in the End, there is "No Child Left Behind", So in the End, there is Nothing Still "Separating God" from God.  Amen. Ok?

And then in subsedquent Chapters "We" will describe the One True Swami of "Truth", First on the "outside" of you as the True Disciple, and then within you as the "Triple Flame" of God, as Jesus (peace be upon Him) having gotten off of His Cross, having destroyed the "anti-christ", that is, having destroyed "you" by Revealing God to God within you, that by awakening the wisdom surrounding your soul, joined as "One with" your liberated soul, in search of the Nur, which is the Light of your wisdom.  Amen. Ok?

First there is the Swami who travels the earth, saying,

"O God, you are my Savior!" 

He is the Swami who had lived a happy married life enjoying the worldly pleasures till adversity brought him poverty, harassment, and difficulties.  Harmed by his wife and children and despised by the world, he roams the forest and wonders in the desert

Second, there is another Swami who had lived a life of prosperity, had ruled many countries, had amassed great wealth, had traveled widely with wife and children, seen many things, heard of many things, consumed intoxicants and enjoyed life till he had lost all his possessions and incurred heavy losses.

Now, discarded by his wife and children, and also by his relatives and other people, he has none to inquire after him and look after him.  There is a saying,

"If a rich are ruined
They will not belong even to a dry pot"

So with a distorted mind and forgetful of the earth, he directs his mind the other way to ask,

"Is this the world? 
Is this how the end will be?

He beats his head and seeks refuge in the Primal One, saying,

"The world is false.
This birth is false.
My God is the Only True One"

So lamenting, he carries a bowl in his hand and becomes the Swami who begs for food.

And Then there is the Third False Swami.

"This is no birth for me", says the third type of Swami.  He wonders with no self-awareness, delusioned by the great earth, fascinated, mesmerized and blinded by the supposed greatness of the earth.

He boasts of his disbelief in death.  He shows kindness to his parents but causes evil to his neighbors and misery to the poor, saying,

"Who is equal to me!"

He charges interest, lives a frugal life, loiters about in a foolish manner, and lives a life like the useless poisonous tree.  He is a miserable sinner possessing treachery and witchcraft.  He fraudulently amasses wealth and buries it under the earth.  He is forgetful of Charity and offers no help to brothers, sisters, children and others.  He neither eats adequately nor clothes himself properly.

Such a miser will leave his body and enter the torturous hell.  The miser's relatives and people are displaced and his begotten son fearfully carries a begging bowl, loiters here and there, wandering about pleading for alms and searches for resting places in cemeteries and other places.

He recollects the lives of his parents and past generations while spending his days in lazy existence, helping himself to the morsels of food for which he sings daily.  He is unmindful of day or night. 

With disheveled appearance and unaware of the way of life, he becomes lazy, eats like the cattle thinking it is the best way to live and the best approach to attain the achievable.  He eats what he gets to develop his body.  He performs the ritualistic and ceremonial prayers, having eaten like a bull.

He voices the "O" sound and the "Ah" sound of the "Onkaram" as authority.  He thinks that within the raw mango is sourness, within the coconut is the kernel, within the stomach are the intestines, and inside the paddy is the grain.

"Is this not all true?" says the Swami.

         "The darkness of ignorance can dispel sorrow and change it into a state of
         happiness and cause the eye to resplend.  It is surely the night. Dawn will be
         the day". 

         "All what I said is reasonable, isn't it?  Tomorrow will be a happy day if you
         realize it.  It is sorrowful to develop the destructive body.  What I said was about
         earthly happiness".

         "On this earth there are many more pleasant Swamis". 

So saying he ends his sermon.

What shall I say about the characteristics of this third type of Swami?  Son, I have related to you the special features of the three types of "False Swamis". 

Now I shall tell you about the characteristics of the fourth type of Swami, about the One "True Swami" of "Truth" hidden within the Three False Swamis of "Falsehood", that is, the Swami who is hidden within each of My Children, if you like, like the apple tree and its fruits is hidden within the apple seed, if the apple seed likes, for like all people, not all apple seeds germinate the "their truth", some reject "their truth" and fail to geminate, only to rot and eventually die in the earth, taking on 105 million rebirths, but never again as an apple seed, never again as the "Story of the Tree", which is the Story of the "Oneness of the apple seed, that apple tree, and the apple fruits", a Story that the apple seed came to the earth, to join as "One with" the earth, to tell.

And such is "Your Truth" hidden within "your fasehood", that is, as the "Triple Flame" hidden within the "triple dirt", that is, as Your Next Life as "One with", Here and Now, that is Now hidden within your "current life" of "separate from" on the illusory "outside" of you, that is, Your Next Life" which is just waiting for you to "germinate" to "Your Truth", that in truth "You and God" are One, if you like, all of which "We" will start to describe in the Next Chapter.   So, please Listen.

"Original Version" of Chapter 16

His Holiness teaches His Children:

Disciple:

Swami, O Noble Guru, It is said that the world is great.  It is also extolled that there is a God for all the universes.  Swami, advise us.

People believe in God and have faith in Him.  Do they say this knowing the truth or knowing themselves?

Swami, please explain this to me.  How many swamis are there?

Guru:

Son, the term "Swami" is of great significanceIt is full of grace.  It refers to God.

"Swamiyar?" is a Question. "Swami" has two meanings. First, "Swami" can refer to God.  Ordinary men too have the name "Swami", as a term of endearment used at home referring to a son, a child, or a loved one.  And the name "Swami" can be used as a derogatory term, for in truth there are "Swamis" who deserve contempt.

However the world is in the process of searching for a "True Swami", saying,

"Who is He? 
Could it be this "Swami" or that "Swami"? 

Unaware of the "True Swami", the search continues for the "True Swami" the world over.  It is very, very rare indeed for such a "True Swami" to be discovered and identified.  Each household will laughingly say that there is many a "True Swami".

However, there are "Four Different Kinds of Swamis".  I shall describe them.  Listen

First there is the Swami who travels the earth, saying,

"O God, you are my Savior!" 

He is the Swami who had lived a happy married life enjoying the worldly pleasures till adversity brought him poverty, harassment, and difficulties.  Harmed by his wife and children and despised by the world, he roams the forest and wonders in the desert

Second, there is another Swami who had lived a life of prosperity, had ruled many countries, had amassed great wealth, had traveled widely with wife and children, seen many things, heard of many things, consumed intoxicants and enjoyed life till he had lost all his possessions and incurred heavy losses.

Now, discarded by his wife and children, and also by his relatives and other people, he has none to inquire after him and look after him.  There is a saying,

"If a rich are ruined
They will not belong even to a dry pot"

So with a distorted mind and forgetful of the earth, he directs his mind the other way to ask,

"Is this the world? 
Is this how the end will be?

He beats his head and seeks refuge in the Primal One, saying,

"The world is false.
This birth is false.
My God is the Only True One"

So lamenting, he carries a bowl in his hand and becomes the Swami who begs for food.

And Then there is the Third False Swami.

"This is no birth for me", says the third type of Swami.  He wonders with no self-awareness, delusioned by the great earth, fascinated, mesmerized and blinded by the supposed greatness of the earth.

He boasts of his disbelief in death.  He shows kindness to his parents but causes evil to his neighbors and misery to the poor, saying,

"Who is equal to me!"

He charges interest, lives a frugal life, loiters about in a foolish manner, and lives a life like the useless poisonous tree.  He is a miserable sinner possessing treachery and witchcraft.  He fraudulently amasses wealth and buries it under the earth.  He is forgetful of Charity and offers no help to brothers, sisters, children and others.  He neither eats adequately nor clothes himself properly.

Such a miser will leave his body and enter the torturous hell.  The miser's relatives and people are displaced and his begotten son fearfully carries a begging bowl, loiters here and there, wandering about pleading for alms and searches for resting places in cemeteries and other places.

He recollects the lives of his parents and past generations while spending his days in lazy existence, helping himself to the morsels of food for which he sings daily.  He is unmindful of day or night. 

With disheveled appearance and unaware of the way of life, he becomes lazy, eats like the cattle thinking it is the best way to live and the best approach to attain the achievable.  He eats what he gets to develop his body.  He performs the ritualistic and ceremonial prayers, having eaten like a bull.

He voices the "O" sound and the "Ah" sound of the "Onkaram" as authority.  He thinks that within the raw mango is sourness, within the coconut is the kernel, within the stomach are the intestines, and inside the paddy is the grain.

"Is this not all true?" says the Swami.


        "The darkness of ignorance can dispel sorrow and change it into a state of
         happiness and cause the eye to resplend.  It is surely the night. Dawn will be
         the day". 

         "All what I said is reasonable, isn't it?  Tomorrow will be a happy day if you
         realize it.  It is sorrowful to develop the destructive body.  What I said was about
         earthly happiness".

         "On this earth there are many more pleasant Swamis". 

So saying he ends his sermon.

What shall I say about the characteristics of this third type of Swami?  Son, I have related to you the special features of the three types of "False Swamis". 

Now I shall tell you about the characteristics of the fourth type of Swami, all of which "We" will start to describe in the Next Chapter.  So, please Listen.
