We have mentioned
above that one of the Consciouses is Invariant. This characteristic of the conscious
in its own limits has a singular style of observing, thinking, comprehending and
feeling. No discrimination is found in this characteristic of the conscious for
any individual or the cosmic particle. The second Conscious is created from this
very Spaceless Conscious which have been termed as the Incident Reality. Although
the movement of this conscious is very solid yet it is million times swifter than
the thought. But, when this Conscious emerges on the surface of the third conscious
its velocity is decreased to a great extent yet it remains millions of time more
than the velocity of light. This conscious also strives towards a conspicuous surface
and after entering into the conspicuous surface transforms into the elements of
the Phenomenal World. This collection of the elements is the fourth conscious of
the individual which is entirely superficial in its characteristics and because
of this very reason its duration and solidness is extremely short lived. This is
the conscious whose senses are the most deceptive and deficient. Although the senses
of this conscious comprise of the wants and demands that are largely aesthetic,
these do not have the proper appreciation of the aesthetic standards. For this reason
alone successive and continuous gaps are found in them, at the same time, to fill
up the gaps these senses are ordained with demands that are termed as the Conscience.
To fill the
very gaps Allah, the Most High, made the prophets to enforce the Revealed Laws.
Aesthetics or the Beauty, in the perspective of the creation of mankind, could possibly
have only one target, the target of the Unity (Oneness) of Allah. This target is
revealed upon the prophets through Revelation. Oneness has always been searched
in their conjectures by those who do not acknowledge the prophets. Thus they were
misled by their conjectures towards the non-unitarian ideologies that occasionally
happen to clash with dissimilar and wrong ideologies of other groups of like approaches.
Any conjectural theory may correspond to some extent with some other ideology but
ultimately fail to reconcile. There is no other way of uniting mankind on a common
ideology except through unitarian approach of monotheism. All the various systems
invented by the people on their own have eventually proved to be fallible at one
stage or another. All doctrines other than unitarianism or monotheism have either
become extinct along with their believers or are already in the throes of invalidation.
Almost all the old doctrines transmitted to the present age, either stand annihilated
or after having undergone considerable modifications and adopting newer names are
on the verge of disappearance. Although followers of such doctrines are desperately
trying to make them a source of guidance for the whole of mankind their efforts
are proving futile.
The present
generations are much more frustrated than those of the past while the generations
of the future would even be abjectly worse. Eventually, mankind would be constrained
to return to Unitarianism as this would be their one last hope for solidarity otherwise
they would never be able to rally at one central point.
Thinkers
of today are required to understand and follow the thinking approach of the Revelation
(Wahi) and should abstain from misleading mankind. Habits, Customs and life-styles
admittedly vary from nation to nation and country to country and the unification
of physical functioning and life-style of singular pattern the world over is simply
not possible. . But the spiritual functions that emerge only from the Unity of the
God-head can be deemed as the only possibility left in this regard. If thinkers
of the world could effectively struggle to correct the misinterpretations of these
functions they would be able to unite the nations of the world in one single bond
of the unified system of spiritualism and the only practicable spiritual system
prescribed in the Holy Quran is unequivocally monotheistic by all reasoning. We
have to rise above our biases and prejudices in this regard because human conflicts
and animosities of the future, whether economic or ideological will force mankind
to do something for its survival at any cost and the means of survival cannot be
found in any philosophy or doctrine except the Quranic Monotheism.
We have related
this, considering it necessary, in connection with the fourth conscious. The main
thing we intend to State is that the Senses pertaining to the Appearance cannot
move in the right direction without the guidance of the Revelation. If the remaining
three consciouses could be precisely taken into account we can make our way for
the central idea of the Revelation. When the features of the Prophetic Knowledge
will become known to us our own thinking would be constrained to reject every type
of Conjectural Knowledge.
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.
