Everything
has some sort of identity even if we think it is invisible and do not give it
any importance. When a person makes it the aim of his life to fulfill his
desires, then in reality that person is overcome by the identity of that
desire. If the desire of a person is personal interest, then he is confined
within the earthly body characterized by narrowness, suffocation, and darkness.
A person thus remains enclosed in these limitations of identity unable to leave
them. Like a prisoner in a dark and gloomy place, he cannot establish contact
with the huge and wide spiritual world of colour.
KHWAJA SHAMS-UD-DEEN AZEEMI
What is the universe? It is a point, and this point is a
divine light, and the divine light is itself a light.
Every point is the imprint of luminescence (Tajalli). When
this imprint transforms itself into the divine light then it becomes Aura
(Jism-e-Misali). The display of the Aura is the physical body.
The physical body is built up as a structure of bones, flesh,
and muscle. The skin is a kind of plaster and color on this building. The life
of the human being who is made up of veins, arteries, nerves, bones, and flesh,
is nothing except senses.
