Light
travels at the speed of three hundred million metres per second (or 186282
miles per second) and travels around the Earth eight times in a second. When
one in Prayer prostrates by placing the head onto the ground, the lights
operating in one's brain form a link with the lights in the earth. This
increases the speed of the mind to three hundred million metres per second. As
well as this, the electricity which produces negative thoughts or ideas in
one's mind is directly absorbed by the Earth. This causes one to subconsciously
become liberated from gravity and form a connection with the Creator of the
universe. Spiritual energies become so heightened that the veil in front of the
eyes is lifted and the unseen world is revealed to one.
When one
in Prayer, taking in the lights from the atmosphere and air, joins the head,
nose, knees, hands and the toes of the feet with the earth facing towards the
Holy Kaba, or in other words, prostrates, the blood from
the topmost part of the body (during prostration) enters the brain and supplies
it with nourishment. After these chemical changes take place, the telepathic
abilities within one are aroused.
One
should close the eyes when prostrating and imagine that one is prostrating in
front of Allah. While establishing this thought
سُبْحَانَ رَبِّی الْاَعَلی
should
be recited either three, five or seven times. When a person places his forehead
on the ground for Allah's sake, the whole universe prostrates to him and the
sun and the moon become subservient to him.
KHWAJA SHAMSUDDIN AZEEMI
Mehrāj means to enter the world of the unseen. When a believer attains Mehrāj through prayer, Angels appear in front of him. He travels through the Heavens, and through the blessings of the Holy Prophet (pbuh) he comes to know his Lord.
