Certain numbers of Nasma have been mentioned during
our discussion regarding nasma. Each of these countless numbers is indicative of
an angle of light. Every angle of light is a composition of aforementioned Attraction
and Aversion. Every individual being is an existence of this angle of Attraction
and Aversion. Every individual forms a hypothetical point on this angle. Every Point
is associated with all the points of its species and is homologous with other points
of its species. This very homology Causes it to appear similar to the other points
of its species. To describe these points further, we could term each point as a
Location. This location is of two types and keeps on circulating. First circulation
is the Rotational Revolution which keeps it incarcerated and does not allow it to
be absorbed in points of other species. Other is the Linear Revolution which keeps
it in touch with other angles of the universe, that is to say, all these points
(angles) are tied in the strings of light and arrangement of the universe is based
upon these very strings of light.
One side
of the rotational revolution is the record of the individual life of the point and
its other side is the record of the life of its species, One side of the linear
revolution associates the individuals of one species with the individuals of the
other species and the other side of this revolution is adjoining to that Reality
which is known as the Inevitable Being (Wajib-ul-Wajood). This reality comprises
of the Personal Attributes of Allah, the Most Exalted.
The lights
which are the root cause of the rotational revolution are named as Nasma and the
lights that are the root cause of the linear revolution are named ’noor' (Light),
in any person these Lights are the centrality (nucleus) of the person. Each of these
lights is di-hedral and each side is the conscious of the system of the universe.
In order
to prepare a flavored drink, Water sugar, colors, and flavor are mixed together and
kept in bottles. If the bottle is considered to be that light which is present before
our eyes then the water could be assumed as the Fourth Conscious, the Color as the
Third Conscious, the sweetness as the Second Conscious and the Flavor as the First
Conscious. Just as we feel and perceive the water, colors, sugar and the flavor through
ostensible senses similarly these four consciouses could be realized and perceived
through immanent senses.
Conscious
has two sides. One is the Origin (Mubdaa) which could be called the immanent or
the internal side another name of the same is the Individual. All the creatures
that are existing in the form of an individual or a particle, exist within the limits
of this very side of the conscious. Both the sides of the conscious have the only
difference Of the spectator and the scene. One state of the conscious is that which
is felt by the individual and the other is the sensation itself. The same is called
the External World. Existence of anything in the out, anyhow, is not possible without
its immanent existence in the individual. Keeping it in view, we have to acknowledge
that it is the inner world of an individual which is Real and Certain and a reflection
of the same is found in the out.
When we divide the sensation, one of the parts is
the Appearance or Sighting which is not possible without presence of form and figure,
shape and features in the outside. The other remaining parts of sensation are denominated
as Fantasy, Thought and Imagination. All these are collectively known, in Sufism,
as the Vision (Roya). It means that the sensation could be divided into two parts;
Royat (Appearance) and the Roya (Vision). Thus the universe is a compositional collection
of these very two components.
If we, considering
everything of existents of the world as a particle, examine the internal and the
external structure of its being, ultimately a Light (noor) containing all the values
of life would be found there. Stimulation of this Light, in terms of Sufism, is called
Germination (Bida’at). Germination is the name of a sort of biological pressure
which commencing from the First Conscious effectively casts its influence upto the
Fourth Conscious.
KHWAJA SHAMS-UD-DEEN AZEEMI
Alshaikh Khwaja
Shamsuddin Azeemi, Chief Editor of the monthly Roohani Digest, the renowned
spiritual scholar, founder of the chain of Muraqba Halls the world over has had
the honour of learning the spiritual sciences from his spiritual mentor, His
Divine Grace Qalander Baba Auliya, the sage of this age. In order to teach him
the spiritual sciences Qalander Baba Auliya made Alshaikh Azeemi to pen down
the words that he used to narrate. Alshaikh Azeemi being a devoted disciple not
only noted the contents but also did his best to understand what he was taught.
The eventual out come of his dedicated work took the form of the ‘Loh-o-Qalum’,
the first ever book that comprises the whole syllabus of the spiritual science.
Who else was more suitable to explain the contents of this document but
Alshaikh Azeemi, the very able student of Qalander Baba Auliya. Dissemination
of that knowledge, which is the legacy of prophets and had reached him in
disciplic succession, has become an obsession for Alshaikh Azeemi because, according
to him, this knowledge is the only elixir and the antidote for the ailing
humanity in present times.
