If a man is desirous of viewing the pictorial
reflections of the Intuitive Knowledge in the mirror of the Conscious, there is
a very simple technique for the purpose.
He should arrange to sit in a dark corner where
the temperature is moderate. Limbs are all the muscles of the body should be
relaxed. The relaxation is required to that extent where the feelings of
existence of the body should no longer remain there. Rate of breathing should
be slowed down to the least possible and it must not be hard or heavy breathing.
He should close his eyes and should attempt to see into his inner self. If the
deeds and thoughts of the person who is practicing the Meditation are chaste
then this would tone up his Subtlety of the Self very fast and because of the
toned subtlety of the Self the Conscious would become more and more resplendent.
This process, in Sufistic terms, is known as Muraqbah.
Submission to the order commanded by Allah, the
Most High, is Sura Muzammil, “And, Be attentive to Him, cut off from all,” is
compulsory for ‘Muraqbah’. Laxation of body and low rate of breathing are
essential for producing the state of being unconcerned in totality. When the
physical body becomes impreceptible and is no longer being realized as such,
the Nucleus of the Self starts ascending. Other than this state and condition –
it only descends. It ascends only when it could itself liberated from the
bodily depends and the physical desires and the mind is not reminding it of the
worldly affairs. When the Nucleus of the Self is released from the worldly
worries it starts its stroll in the Realm and it becomes ambulant, enjoys
eating and drinking and performs all those activities which could be termed as
its eminent activities. Here it becomes emancipated from the spatial ties and
bonds of the space. Its strides is not only willful but could cover any length
of Time, from its beginning to its end. When the core of the self becomes fully
versed with the activities of Muraqbah it becomes so expensive that it could
touch both the ends of Times, the Eternity and Infinity. It can, then, use its
powers according to its will and intention. Intentions and happenings of the
millennia of the past or the future can be observed if it is so wished because
all that ever existed or will ever exist between the two limits of the Eternity
and the Infinity is also present even then. This very state is known as the ‘prambulation’
(Sair) by the Sufis.
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.
