# Foreword

It is a very responsible thing to translate the Holy Scripture from its original language into modern speech. Translating the Holy Scripture means rendering into another language the thoughts and sayings of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi.

The Holy Scripture 'Religion of God' is a long awaited divine medicine for the restive hearts and dormant souls. The fundamental concept of the book is Divine Love. Love for all and hatred for none.

The translator of the Holy Scripture, Mir Liaquat Ali (of the United States of America), whose fear and love of the Divine Author (His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi) of the Holy Scripture, feels towards Him a special responsibility to transmit his thoughts and declarations as accurately as possible. Mir Liaquat Ali also feels a responsibility towards the searching readers who depend upon a translation of the inspired word for their everlasting salvation and enlightenment. The reader of this Holy Scripture will realise that these teachings benefit all human beings. It will spring hope from the human breast for an eternal life. It will also help you judge the personality of the author and His manifestation.

The appearance of the images of His Divine Eminence on the Moon, the Sun, Mars and various other places has already been verified by many organisations. It also signifies His grandeur and majesty.

People belonging to different religions and faiths, having been enlightened through His spiritual grace, and having found His images on the Moon, the Sun, Mars, in Temples, in Hajar al Aswad (Muslims' sacred place in Mecca), have known Him to be the Promised Messiah, the Awaited Mehdi and Kalki Avatar.

We are very happy and satisfied to present this divine gift to the aspiring hearts. This book is also available online at www.goharshahi.com and www.goharshahi.gs.

# Preface

Manifestation of the images of His Divine Eminence Ra Gohar Shahi (on the Moon, the Sun, Holy Black Stone, Shiv Temple and various other locations) led a multitude of the Muslims and non-Muslims to profess and believe the fact that it is His Divine Eminence R.A Gohar Shahi who is the Awaited Imam Mehdi, Promised Messiah and Kalki Avatar, prophesied in various scriptures.

We welcome and encourage you to examine the person of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi. We invite you to contact us for enquiry and research. You may also try and recognise Him through the study of His books.

Observations:

The preface above is by Younus AlGohar who is the appointed Representative of His Divine Eminence Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi. The contents of the preface draw the attention of the readers to the Mehdi-hood of His Divine Eminence Ra Gohar Shahi. It is an indirect approach to promote the truth and factual evidence that His Divine Eminence Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi is the Awaited Imam Mehdi. Many people wonder why His Divine Eminence Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi did not announce His divinely ordained office of Mehdi-hood.

His Divine Eminence often says that the true fragrance speaks for itself, and it does not require to be pointed out by the bearer. Pakistan's cruel laws about Imam Mehdi have not helped anyone to be aware of the false claimants of Mehdi-hood. However, these laws have proved to discourage the true Mehdi from verifying the said-status of whom God manifests His signs in the horizons and in the very beings of humankind.

Prophet Mohammad did not propagate Islam openly until Umar Bin Khattab joined him. Similarly, His Divine Eminence affirms, 'Imam Mehdi has kept a low profile and did not proclaim His Mehdi-hood because He too, like Prophet Mohammad, awaits an Umar Bin Khattab in this era.' His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi further said that Imam Mehdi would not announce his Mehdi-hood, but the close followers of Imam Mehdi would recognise Him on account of heart-enlightenment they have obtained from His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi.

Many Titles, One Personality: Imam Mehdi, Promised Messiah and Kalki Avatar

It should be carefully understood that the Awaited One is known by various titles. Some of the pseudo-claimants of Mehdi-hood have made hilarious claims and have gone far off the basics and mental lucidity in appointing themselves to be the Awaited One. Mirza Ghulam Qadyani has to prove Jesus Christ dead in order to replace him, thus, to be able to claim to be the Awaited Mahdi and also the newly born Jesus Christ.

#  His Divine Eminence R.A. Gohar Shahi

This is that Gohar Shahi, who in particular, secluded Himself for three years in the mountains of Sehwan and in the Laal Bagh, in austerity and spiritual self-discipline, all for the sake of God's love. His Divine Eminence initiated thousands of people onto the mystical path through purification and heart-invocation and motivated a multitude of people to obtain Divine Love. People of all religions invited His Divine Eminence for spiritual lectures to Mosques, Hindu Temples, Churches, and Sikh Temples, and acquired heart-invocation by His Divine Eminence.

Countless men and women repented and inclined towards God inspired by His Divine Eminence's teachings. His spiritual grace restored health in countless individuals who suffered from incurable ailments.

Then, God manifested the face of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi on the Moon. Later, His Divine Eminence's image became visible in the Holy Black Stone also. He became famous throughout the world.

Radical clerics and the Muslims who begrudge the Sufis did not like His Divine Eminence Ra Gohar Shahi. They tampered with the text of His Divine Eminence' books, trying to find a pretext to have issued fatwas of death and kufr (rejection). His residence in Manchester, United Kingdom, was bombed. A hand grenade was aimed at Him whilst His Divine Eminence addressed disciples in Kotri, Pakistan. A huge amount of money was declared on His head.

His Divine Eminence was trapped in five different false cases in Pakistan. The Government of Sindh became a party against His Divine Eminence because of Nawaz Sharif's enmity towards His Divine Eminence. There were two cases of alleged murder, one case that of possession of illegal arms, and another case of illegal possession of land instigated against His Divine Eminence. In the USA, His Divine Eminence was trapped in a false case of felony and illegal detention of a woman. Yellow journalism left no stone unturned in defaming and dishonouring Him. Eventually, after the hearing and thorough investigation, all the cases were proved false and the court acquitted His Divine Eminence as innocent. God protected His Friend against all odds.

Please find attached the Sindh High Court report of cases against His Divine Eminence Ra Gohar Shahi.

The Sectarian Elements repeatedly trap His Divine Eminence in false cases.

Important Note:

Failure to the previous false cases, the Satans (radical clerics) instigated yet another false and logical case of PPC-295 (claiming to be a Prophet), against His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi. In their plots, they earned the favour of the high rank government officials also. Even the former president of Pakistan, Rafique Tarar, became a party on account of sectarian prejudice. Because of the pressure from the high officials, the judge announced the verdict against His Divine Eminence. God willing, this false case will be quashed in either High Court of Supreme Court.

_______________________

Observations:

Sectarian Elements in Pakistan entrap His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi in false cases.

His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi comes from Pakistan, a politically volatile country with majority of Muslims, of which most are extremists and fanatics. Pakistan is the most vulnerable and sensitive place in the South Asian region. The Pakistani Muslims comprise of Shiite, Pro-Saudi Wahhabis, and various forms of the Sunni denominations. Most of these denominations are extremists and militants. Wahhabis and Deobandis are financially supported by Saudi Arabia. The Shiite are supported and funded by Iran. All these different denominations are involved in hate-preaching, and crimes against humanity. They wage war against their opponent denominations within the country, and they are those who promote terrorism across the border.

The Wahhabis are well organised and classified in many groups, and each group has been given a different task to accomplish. Tahaffuz Khatam-e-Nabuwat is specially assigned to trap Sufis in false cases of blasphemy. Tablighi Jamat is an evangelical sort of movement, which aims to transform all Muslims into their belief system.

The Wahhabi denomination has very religiously taken it to persecute, discourage, entrap and eradicate His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi. Hence, they instigated various false cases against His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi. They have been threatened by the universality of His Divine Eminence's message of Divine Love, and His ever-increasing fame on the global sphere.

#  Introduction by R.A. Gohar Shahi

1. The religions established through celestial scriptures are correct, provided they have not been adulterated.

2. The religions are like sailboats, and the scholars are like sailors. Reaching the destination is difficult if either one is defective. However, the Saints do take even the damaged 'sailboats' safely to the shore. People with religious incapacity flock around the Saints for this reason.

3. God's love supersedes all the religions and it is core of all the religions, whereas God's Light is the guiding lantern onto the Path.

4. There are three parts of exoteric knowledge and one part of esoteric knowledge, and Khidr (Vishnu Maharaj) dispensed this knowledge. God's love is the means of obtaining God's nearness. Dogs are better than the hearts empty of God's love because the dogs love their master, and this love earned them the nearness of their master. Otherwise an 'unclean' dog and a divinely ordained human cannot be compared.

5. If you desire the paradise and its damsels, then worship extensively so as to reach the highest level of the paradise.

6. If you are in search for God, learn spirituality too so that, through the Prescribed Divine Path, you may obtain union with God.

#  Man, Since Creation to Infinite

As God intended to create souls, he said, 'Be' and countless souls came into existence. By and beside God were the souls of the Prophets. In the second row were the souls of the Saints, and then in the third row were the souls of the faithful ones. They were followed by the souls of common folks. And then, at a distant row that fell beyond God's sight, were created the souls of women who were followed by the animal, botanical and mineral souls respectively. Mineral souls were unable to move.

On God's right were the angels, followed by the heavenly damsels who were unable to see God's face. For this reason the angels cannot see God. Behind them, were the souls of Muakkel (angel-like creatures), which later came into the world as auxiliary assistants to Prophets and Saints. To God's left were the souls of the Jinns, followed by infernal spirits and evil spirits who aided the Satan in his work after coming into the world.

Souls on God's right and left, and those beyond God's sight could not witness the Divine Manifestation. This is the reason why Jinns, angels and women may speak with God, but they cannot see God.

There was a spheroid of fire in the terrestrial globe. It was commanded to cool down, thereafter, its fragments scattered in the space. The Moon, Mars, Jupiter, Earth and the stars are all fragmented parts, whereas the Sun is the remnant of the spheroid of fire. Initially, Earth was nothing but ashes in the whole. Mineral souls were sent down to consolidate the ashes into stone. Then, botanical spirits were sent down to sprout trees and plantation in the rocks. Thereafter, animals appeared from animal spirits coming to Earth.

God further asked all souls if He was their creator. All souls affirmed in positive, and prostrated; even the souls of stones and trees prostrated to God. 'The stars and the trees prostrated to God.' (Chapter Rehman, the Koran).

Then, God created a modelled world and its luxuries in order to test and examine the souls. And God said, 'Should anyone seek it, they may obtain it.' Too many souls turned their back on God and leapt towards the modelled luxuries of the world. Therefore, they were declared hellbound in the book of their fate. Then, God depicted the scene of the paradise, which was better than the latter and concerned itself with the servitude and obedience. Many souls leapt towards it, and the paradise was written in their fate. Too many souls were indecisive, hence, they were placed in between the Lord and the Devil. They were entangled between the two when they came in this world. Whoever influenced them first, they became their's. Many souls fixed their eyes on the Divine Splendour. They desired none of the world or paradise. God loved them, and they loved God. Such souls for the sake of God, shunned the world, became recluse, and lived in jungles.

To serve the needs of the souls and for their pleasure, eighteen thousand types of creatures were brought in existence: six thousand in the sea, six thousand on the land and six thousand in the air and celestial realms.

Then God created seven types of paradise and seven types of hell.

The seven heavens are:  
Khuld, Daar-us-Salaam, Daar-ul-Qaraar, Eden, al-Mawa, Naeem and Firdaus.

The seven hells are:  
Saqar, Saeer, Nutaa, Hutama, Jaheem, Jahanum and Hawia.

All the above mentioned names are from Suryani, the language that God speaks with the angels.

It is a common tenet in all religions that God may send to hell or heaven whosoever He wishes to. If a soul had been sent to hell from the scene in the primordial time, it would object, 'What crime did I commit?' God would say, 'You turned away from me and desired the world.' The soul would say, 'That was merely a decision out of poor intelligence, nevertheless, I did not act upon it.' To settle this argument the souls were sent down on Earth.

Adam's (Shanker Jee) body was created with clay from paradise. In addition to the human soul, some other spirits also were placed in the body. Adam's body was still in the process of creation when the Iblis spat at it out of sheer jealousy. The saliva fell on the belly button. The saliva along with its germ entered the body. The Satan is from the nation of the Jinns. According to the Prophetic Tradition, a Satanic Jinn is born with every man. Similitude of a body is that of a mud-house. And there are sixteen spirits enclosed within it, in addition to Khannas (the Whisperer) and four other birds.

Substance, in the form of a woman emerged from the left rib of Adam. A soul was placed in it which came to be known as Eve. Following the forced exit from the paradise, Adam was dropped in Sri Lanka, and Eve was in Jeddah. Thus, Asian lineage began through them. Hence, the remaining souls also started to descend on Earth from the heavens periodically. Institutions in form of religions were established for the training, schooling, and levels of the souls. The souls were then divided into assorted religions, and some others were kept without a religion according to their predestined fate.

God-loving souls also came in this world, and took birth in Muslim, Sikh, Hindu and Christian homes; they sought God according to the principles of their religions. For this reason, the elite in all religions adopted hermitage. Some people wrongly project that Islam does not allow hermitage. Prophet Mohammad also went to the cave of Hira. Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani, Khawaja Moeen-ud-Din Ajmeri, Data Ali Hajweri, Bari Imam, Baba Farid, Shahbaz Qalander etc, acquired high mystical ranks only after they had adopted hermitage. And the Saints alone are responsible for the widespread of the religion.

# Roots of Man in the World

As soon as a male sperm enters the womb, a mineral spirit arrives to coagulate the blood. The botanical spirit helps it grow. After four months of pregnancy, the bio-spirit (animal spirit) enters the womb, which enables the embryo to move. These spirits are known as the terrestrial spirits. Soon after the baby is delivered, the human soul along with its subtleties is inserted in the baby. These are known as the celestial souls.

If the baby expires within the womb of the mother before the delivery takes place, a funeral ceremony is not necessary, as it was yet to become a human being. A funeral ceremony is a must in the event that the baby dies just moments after the delivery. Because by then, it would have become a human being owing to the arrival of the human soul in him, and the Self (Nafs), along with its auxiliaries had settled at the naval point. A man with a stronger mineral spirit likes to live in the mountains. Man's fondness for trees and flowers is due to the botanical spirit in him. Due to the dominance of the bio-spirit, a fondness of animals and behaviour like that of animals develops. The Nafs (a Satanic Jinn) resembles a dog in appearance. With its dominance, man develops dog-like behaviour and affection for dogs. With the awakening of the faculty of the heart, a human becomes like an angel.

After death, the celestial souls return to the paradise. Celestial souls are assigned to one particular body; whereas, the terrestrial spirits including the Nafs are left behind in this world. The terrestrial spirits, after death, are transferred into another newly born human body; they continue to be reallocated to different human beings. The terrestrial spirits are exempt from the Day of Judgement and accountability. The cleansed spirits of the Nafs stay in the graves to continue to worship God, and also facilitate humanity with spiritual grace. As Prophet Mohammad, on the Night of Ascension, passed by the grave of Prophet Moses, he saw him engaged in worship in his grave. When Prophet Mohammad reached the celestial sphere, he saw Prophet Moses was present there too. The dominant Nafs of 'sinners' join the groups of Satans for their survival. They enter the bodies of human beings to harm them. Such subtleties of the Nafs are thus known as evil spirits.

According to the Bible, Jesus used to cast out evil spirits from those who were possessed. After death, the terrestrial spirits and the Nafs remain in this world, the human soul enters either in Il'liyeen or Sij'jeen and the Lata'if (the faculties of the human breast), provided they are enlightened, too go to Il'liyeen; otherwise Lata'if are wasted in the grave. Due to the Nafs, man became impure.

Bulleh Shah said, 'The Self (Nafs) brought along with it impurities in me. Otherwise, I had not been impure originally.'

For acquisition of the Self-mortification, the celestial books were revealed and the Prophets and the Saints were sent. The Self was made subject to fear of hellfire, and was incited with the pleasure of the paradise. Efforts were made through austerities, worship, and lent, so as to tame it; the successful contenders became deserving claimants of the paradise. The elite, however, were able to purify the Self by virtue of mystical knowledge, thus becoming God's Friends.

# The Doctrine of Nafs (the Self)

It is a Satanic cell and navel point is its abode. All the Prophets and Saints sought refuge from its mischief. Its diet is phosphorus and bad odour, which is also found in bones, coal and cow dung. All religions insist on a proper bath after copulation because unpleasant odour releases through skin pores during sexual activity. Malodorous drinks and animal meat also are prohibited for consumption.

On the day of Azal (Primordial), all souls in front of God up to the mineral souls, became acquainted with each other and united. The man, inspired by the mineral soul in him, built homes from stones. And he made roofs of homes with the wood of trees, inspired by the botanical soul in him. He benefited himself from the cool shadows of the trees also. The trees provided him with pure oxygen. Bio-spirits from the rear row that became animals in this world were declared lawful for consumption by the man. The birds from the same category also were made lawful for consumption.

On the left side, were created Jinns and infernal spirits, followed by evil spirits, which, in the end, became God's enemies. And the animal, botanical and mineral spirits that appeared from behind evil spirits developed enmity against human beings. Mineral spirits from this category caused the ashes of Earth to turn into coal, the gas from which was harmful for human beings. The botanical spirits from this category brought into existence dangerous, thorny and man-eating trees. With the animal spirits from this category, man-eating animals and beasts were created. And the birds from the same category, owing to its attribute of enmity against human beings, were declared as unlawful. These birds can be recognised by their trait of eating food with their claws. The souls at God's right were appointed as servants to human beings, message-carriers and helpers. The man was elevated in eminence above all, and was appointed as God's vicegerent. Now it depends on the man, his willingness, efforts and fate whether he accepts the vicegerency or he rejects it.

In dreams, the Nafs leaves the body, and joins evil gatherings of the Jinns, in the person's guise. Nafs is accompanied by the Khannas. It resembles an elephant. It sits in between the Nafs and the Qalb (the heart). It assists the Nafs to misguide the man. In addition to this, yet another four birds also get clung to the four souls of the breast, to misguide the man. For example, the cockerel is clung to the heart (Qalb), which causes lust to prevail in the heart. With Dhikr Qalb (invocation of the heart) the cockerel is cleansed of lust, hence, it begins to differentiate between prohibitions (haram) and permissible (halal). This is known as a Secured Heart (Qalb-e-Saleem).

The crow is clung to Sirri, and Sirri is afflicted by greed. The peacock is clung to Khafi, and Khafi is afflicted by jealousy. The pigeon is clung to Akhfah, and Akhfah is afflicted by stinginess. The traits of these birds compel the souls of the breast to adopt greed and jealousy, until the souls are enlightened. These four birds were taken out from Abraham's body, purified and placed back in his body. After the demise of purified individuals, these birds begin to dwell on trees. Individuals who spend a certain amount of time in jungles for austerity learn to imitate the voice of these birds; as a result of which these birds become familiar with them, and they help them with healing minor diseases.

An Important Anecdote:  
Nafs belongs to the Satan.

All the five souls of the human breast are related to the five Grand Prophets respectively. Ana belongs to God.

Similarly, the body is related to the Perfect Spiritual Guide.

Whichever soul is not connected with the concerned, is deprived of its spiritual grace.

# 1. The Subtlety of Qalb

The Prophet-hood and the knowledge concerning Qalb was granted to Adam Safi Allah

The fleshy heart is known as 'Dil' in Urdu, and 'Fawwad' in Arabic. The spiritual faculty clung to the physical heart is known as Qalb. The Prophet-hood and knowledge pertaining to the faculty of Qalb was granted to Adam. According to a Prophetic Tradition, 'The heart is different from the faculty of Qalb.' This phenomenal world is known as Nasut (the Terrestrial Realm). Besides this, there are other realms also, such as: Malakut (the Realm of Angels), Ankabut (the Realm of God's Throne), Jabrut (the Realm of Souls, 'Station of Gabriel'), Lahut (the Realm of Nothingness), Wahdat (the Realm of Divine Unity) and Ahdiyat (the Realm of Divine Oneness).

These realms and the creatures thereof pre-existed the explosion of the spheroid of fire in the Terrestrial Realm of Nasut. The angels and the souls were created simultaneously; however, the archangels and the subtleties of the breast (Lata'if) already existed in these realms. Subsequently, creatures inhabited many planets in the Realm of Nasut. Some of the planets have been annihilated, and the rest await their end. The archangels and the subtleties of the breast were created seventy thousand years prior to the Command, 'Be' of the souls. Qalb was kept within the Place of Love, and through Qalb man is supposed to be connected with God. Similitude of Qalb is like that of the telephone operator between man and God. Man receives the divine reason and revelation through Qalb. Footnote: a Dalil (the divine argument/reason) is always accompanied by Ilhaam (inspiration). Ilhaam is not authentic if it is not accompanied by a Dalil.

The worship of all the subtleties of the breast (Lata'if) reaches the empyrean of God (Arsh-e-Bala) through Qalb. However, Qalb does not have access beyond the Realm of Malakut. Its destination is Khuld. Its mode of worship and its method of saying the rosary both lie within the human anatomy. Those that earned paradise but were unaware of this inner worship would regret it in the paradise, because God says, 'Do they perceive that God would equal them with the pious ones?' Because those with the enlightened Qalb would continue to remember in the paradise. Footnote: Khuld is the lowest grade of the Paradise.

Worship of the body ends after demise. The unenlightened subtleties of the breast including the Qalb would either stay weak or decay in the graves. The enlightened and powerful ones would enter the place of Il'liyeen. Subsequent to the Day of Judgement, new bodies will be given to all; these subtleties along with the human soul will be placed in the bodies of Immortal Saints (who saw God in the phenomenal world). Those who managed to revive their subtleties and remembered God in this world would remember God in the hereafter also; consequently, their level and ranks would be constantly promoted. Those whose hearts were blind here, they would remain blind in the hereafter also. This phenomenal world is the place of practice for deeds and actions. So, they would become stagnant in terms of performance of good deeds. The Christians, the Jews and the Hindus also are aware of the subtleties. The Hindu term for the subtleties is 'Shaktiyaan-Indaryaan', and the Muslim term for them is 'Lata'if'.

Qalb is located on the left of the heart two inches away, and its colour is yellow. Consequent to its revival, man begins to observe and feel yellowish light in the eyes. Some spiritual mentors also heal people with colours. Most people regard the counselling of their heart to be truthful.

Qalb of a common man is senseless (Snobar). Its counselling may be influenced by its naivety, the Whisperer (Khannas) or the Self (Nafs), therefore, it may err in judgement. Reliance on a Qalb-e-Snobar (Senseless Heart) is folly. When the heart is revived with God's remembrance, it begins to differentiate between good and bad, and gains sensibility. This is known as Qalb-e-Saleem (the Secured Heart). Due to the abundance of God's remembrance, it is turned and directed towards God. This is known as Qalb-e-Muneeb (the Heart Turned to God). It is able to prevent the man from the committance of vice, however, it still lacks the power of correct decision. It turns to Qalb-e-Shaheed (the Witnessing Heart) when God's Light begins to fall upon it. A Prophetic Tradition relates, 'Divine Merciful Sight descends upon broken hearts and broken graves.' At this moment, undoubtedly, submit to whatever comes from the heart, as theophanies turn Nafs also into Mutma'inna (the Divinely Content Self). God is then closer to him than his jugular vein. At this stage, God then declares, 'I become his tongue, with which he speaks, and I become his hands with which he holds.'

# 2. The Human Soul

The Prophet-hood and the knowledge concerning the soul was granted to Abraham

The human soul is near to the right side of the breast. It is awakened by loud chanting and visualisation of God's name upon it, consequently, a throb-like movement becomes prominent at it also. The name 'Ya-Allah' is synchronised with this subtlety. Now two subtleties are engaged in God's remembrance; such a person's spiritual status is greater than that of those who only revive their heart. The soul is dark red in colour, revival of which renders access to the Realm of Jabrut. Wrath and anger are attached to it, which transform into majesty by the divine heat.

Back to Top

# 3. The Subtlety of Sirri (Secret)

The Prophet-hood and the knowledge concerning Sirri was granted to Moses

This is located between the left side of the breast and the centre of the chest. It is revived by loud chanting and visualisation of the name 'Ya Hayyu, Ya Qayyum'. Its colour is white. It reaches Lahut (the Realm of Nothingness), through dreams and spiritual journey. With the addition of this subtlety, now three of them are engaged in God's remembrance and the rank of such a person is further increased.

Back to Top

# 4. The Subtlety of Khafi (Arcane)

Its Prophet-hood and knowledge were granted to Jesus Christ

This subtlety is towards the right of the breast from the centre of the chest. It is revived by loud chanting of the name 'Ya Wahid'. It is green in colour. It reaches Wahdat (the Realm of Divine Unity). Now four of them are engaged in God's remembrance and the rank of such a person is further increased.

Back to Top

# 5. The Subtlety of Akhfah (Obscure)

Its Prophet-hood and knowledge were granted to the Mohammad

This subtlety is in the centre of the chest. It is revived by loud chanting of the name 'Ya Ahad.' It is violet in colour. It also is related to the veil in the Realm of Wahdat (the Realm of Divine Unity), behind which is the throne of God.

The knowledge of the five subtleties of the breast was granted to the five Grand Messengers categorically. Half a portion of the knowledge of each subtlety was transferred to the Saints from these Grand Messengers. There were thus ten parts of the esoteric knowledge, and the Saints then transmitted this knowledge to the elite. The knowledge of the exterior, the physical body, and utterance of the tongue all relate to the Realm of Nasut and the Nafs. This is for common folks. Its knowledge is stored in scripture which has thirty chapters. The esoteric knowledge also was granted to the Prophets through revelation (Wahee). Hence, it is also known as 'The Esoteric Scripture'. Sometimes the esoteric knowledge would slip out of Mohammad's tongue in public that which was confined to the elite only, therefore, some of the verses of the Koran would later be abrogated. This inner knowledge was practised and carried on from one heart to another in the chain of Saints. Now, this knowledge has been made accessible to the common folks also, through books.

# 6. The Subtlety of Ana

It is located in the head, and is colourless. Dhikr (remembrance) of 'Ya Hu' is its culmination. It, having gained spiritual strength, reaches and sees God unveiled, and manages to speak with God. This is the station of Divine Lovers. Besides this, some of God's Favourites are also conferred on them other special divine spirits such as Tifle-e-Noori (Spirit of God's Light) and Jussa-e-Tawfeeq-e-Ilahi (Spirit of God). Understanding such elites is beyond the power of intellect.

Through the subtlety of Ana, God can be seen in dreams. Through the Jussa-e-Tawfeeq-e-Illahi (Divine Sub-spirit), God can be seen in Transcendental Meditation (Muraqibah). And those that possess Tifl-e-Noori (God's image gifted to the elite of the elite, which are only seven in total, and they are known as Sultan al Fuqra) see God in the state of consciousness.

The world knows them as 'The Might of God'. They may, on their accord, convey anyone to the Maqam Mehmood (the Station of Praise and Glory) either through worship, austerities, or through their merciful glance. Believer or disbeliever, dead or alive, matters not in their eyes. Just as a thief became a Saint with a single merciful glance of Abdul Qadir Jilani. Abu Bakar Hawari and Mangha Daku also became Saints following a glance from such elites.

All five of the Grand Messengers were, categorically, given knowledge pertaining to the subtlety they belong to, hence, spirituality continued to grow in strength and quality. Whichever subtlety you will revive and engage with God's remembrance, you will deserve to obtain grace of the concerned Grand Messenger, and will be connected with him. Whichever subtlety comes under the theophanies of God, you will be granted Sainthood concerning that particular subtlety. Access to the seven realms and acquisition of different grades in the seven paradises are also through the subtleties of the breast.

#  Functions of Subtleties in the Human Body

Subtlety of Akhfah (the Obscure): It enables the man to speak; without it, the man is dumb even with a sound tongue. The difference between man and animal is on account of these subtleties. If the subtlety of Akhfah does not enter the body at the time of birth for any reason, bringing it in the body was the duty of the concerned Messenger. Then, the dumb would begin to speak.

Subtlety of Sirri (the Secret): It enables man to see. In case this subtlety is absent in man at the time of birth, he is confirmed blind. Bringing it into the body was the duty of the concerned Grand Messenger. The sight, then, is restored to the blind men also.

The Subtlety of Qalb (the Heart): If this is absent in the body, similitude of the man is like that of an animal; unacquainted with God, and distant from Him. He lacks sentiments and hunger for God. The task of bringing it back into the body was assigned to the concerned Grand Messengers only. Later, the wonders and miracles of the Prophets in form of saintly marvels were granted to the Saints also. As the missing subtlety is returned to the body through a Prophet or a Saint, even the deaf, the dumb and blind are healed.

The Subtlety of Ana: The man is mentally impaired due to its absence in the body, even if the nerves of the brain seem to function normally.

The Subtlety of Khafi (the Arcane): Its absence in the body leaves the man deaf, even if all the ear holes are opened wide. Physical flaw also shows a similar syndrome; in which case, it is curable. However, medical help does not serve the purpose in case the concerned subtleties are absent in the body, unless a Prophet or a Saint extends his help.

The Subtlety of Nafs (the Self): Through Nafs the human heart is inclined towards the world and its contents; whereas the subtlety of Qalb steers the man towards God.

# The Word 'Allah'

God communicates with the angels in Suryani which is spoken in the celestial spheres. Adam spoke the same language while he was in paradise. When Adam (Safi Allah) and Eve descended on Earth, they resided in the Arab region. This language, as their progeny spread in the world, through Arabic, Persian and Latin, reached English through literal evolution. People called God with different names in different languages. Adam resided in the Arab region; therefore so many Suryani words are still present in the Arabic language. Adam was known as Adam Safi Allah (the word 'Safi Allah' is from Suryani), Noah was called as Nouh Nabi Allah, Abraham was called as Ibrahim Khalil Allah, then Moses as Musa Kalim Allah, Jesus as Isa Rouh Allah, and Mohammad as Mohammad Rasul Allah. All these phrases (mottos) were already written on the Preserved Scripturum in the Suryani language prior to the arrival of these Prophets in the world. This is why Mohammad said that he had already been a Prophet before his arrival in this world.

Some people perceive the word 'Allah' is a Muslim name for God. This is not true.

Mohammad's father's name was Abd Allah, which predates Islam. The word 'Allah', even before Islam, has been used in mottos of all Prophets. After their creation, the first word the souls uttered was 'Allah'. Adam's soul also uttered, 'Ya Allah' before it entered his body. Some religions understand the truth behind this secret; therefore, they do not hesitate to use the word 'Allah' for God's remembrance. Some others deprive themselves of the grace of the word 'Allah' due to doubts and reservations to its truthfulness.

Any name alluding to God is worthy of respect, and it directs one towards God.

However, these names differ in effectiveness. According to numerology and syllable laws, every word has a separate numeric value. This also is one of the many types of heavenly knowledge. These units encompass the entire creation. Sometimes, these units are in disagreement with each other according to the knowledge of astronomy. This leaves the man under worry and stress. Many people, seeking zodiac charts from the experts of this knowledge, name the newborn. Just as the Arabic alphabets, for example: (ا،ب،ج،د) (4,3,2,1), have a numeric value ten. Similarly, every name has a separate numeric value. When God was called upon by different names, these names became a cause of disharmony with each other according to alphabetical knowledge. Had all humanity called upon God by one name, all would have been united inwardly despite different religions. Then, they would say, as did Nanak Sahib and Baba Farid, 'All souls are created with God's Light; however, their environment and their vicinities are separate.'

The angels are taught languages of the world before they are deployed in the world. It is necessary for the members of all nations of the Prophets that they repeat the declaration of their respective faith, as it was granted by God for purification, identity and grace, in the original language at the time of the particular Prophet. Affirmation of the declaration of faith is a must for all to adopt a religion. Verbal vows, as in the marriage, are mandatory for admission into paradise also. But in the western countries, most Muslims and Christians are not aware of the original wording of their declaration of faith, and the original name of their Prophets.

Those who confine themselves to verbal affirmation of the declaration of faith, they scarce spiritual deeds of the heart (Aamal-e-Saliha). And those who do not affirm the declaration even verbally, they shall not enter the paradise. And those only shall enter the paradise without accountability whose hearts absorbed the declaration of faith. The celestial books in their original form only, serve as a means to convene the aspirants to God. But when the celestial books and their translations were tampered with, just as adulterated flour is harmful to the stomach, similarly these altered books became harmful to the religions. Thus, the followers of one religion and one Prophet were divided into many sects. For acquisition of the Sirat al Mustaqeem (the Divinely Established Path), seek guidance through Noor (God's Light) also.

#  The Method of Producing Divine Light

In the olden days, fire used to be produced from the method of rubbing stones together. The rubbing of iron objects together also produces a spark. The splashing of water also produces electricity. Similarly, in human beings the circulating blood, meaning the throbbing of the heart, also produces electricity. A human body possesses 1-1½ volts of electricity, which sustains agility in him. The electricity and agility is lessened in the old age due to the falling speed of throbs. Initially the heartbeats have to be made prominent. Aspirants have utilised various methods, such as dancing, sports activity, exercise-work out, and through loud chanting with strike of God's name also.

As the heartbeats get prominent, try to synchronise 'Allah Allah' with every beat or 'Allah' with one heartbeat and 'Hu' with the other. Place your hand on the heart sometimes, feel your heartbeats and try to synchronise the name 'Allah'. Occasionally, synchronise 'Allah' with the pace of the pulse. Imagine the word 'Allah' is entering your heart. Dhikr (chanting) of 'Allah-Hu' is better and more effective than that of Dhikr-Allah. Those reluctant and afraid of 'Hu', instead of deprivation, they might as well synchronise just 'Allah' in their heartbeats. People of Dhakuriyah (science of God's remembrance), and Wird-o-Wadhaif (verbal chanting with the rosary) ought to stay as clean as possible.

'Those who show respect, they obtain the benevolence. And those who don't show respect, they remain deprived.'

The First Method   
On a piece of paper, write the word, 'Allah' with a black pen or pencil for as long as you feel comfortable. Do this exercise every day. One day, the word 'Allah' will begin to float before your eyes. Then, try to bring it in your heart from the eyes through visualising it.

The Second Method  
Write the word 'Allah' in a yellow colour on a white bulb (zero watt, a type of bulb that we normally use at night time in bedrooms). Try to absorb it in your eyes by looking at it, any time during the day or just before you sleep. Once it is absorbed within your eyes, visualise it to bring it in your heart.

The Third Method  
This method is suitable for those that carry out this practice under the guidance of a Spiritual Guide, and acquire spiritual help from their guide due to their spiritual relation and connection. Sit in isolation. Use your index finger to visualise and to write the word 'Allah' on your heart. You may as well seek help from your Spiritual Guide in this matter, and visualise he is holding your finger and writing the word 'Allah' on your heart.

Practice this daily until the word 'Allah' is seen written on your heart. Through the earlier mentioned methods, 'Allah' is inscribed as seen written outside on the paper. When the word 'Allah' begins to synchronise with the heartbeats, it gradually begins to glitter. Since in this method help of the Spiritual Guide is available, the word 'Allah' is seen beautifully written and shining on the heart from the beginning.

Many Prophets and Saints came in this world. During loud chanting, as a test, you may visualise all Prophets and Saints, one by one. Whoever your destiny is attached with will appear before you. Your heartbeats will rise in chanting, and you will see spiritual growth also. Then, select him for visualisation because every Saint is related to a certain Prophet in the spiritual system, though a living Prophet is not a condition. The destiny of every devout lies with a certain Saint. For spiritual benevolence, the Spiritual Guide must be physically alive. Occasionally, some lucky aspirant is granted Malakutee Faiz from the Kamil Dhat (Divinely Accomplished Guide) who is living, but not physically; however, it is rare. Verily! The tombs of the departed Saints may render mundane benevolence. This is known as Owaisi Faiz. Owaisi Faiz is a form of spiritual training where the guide renders spiritual grace in dreams and by esoteric means, whether or not the guide is living. Aspirants in Owaisi Faiz are often troubled and confused by what they see in dreams, and Kashf (spiritual unveiling). This is because their guide is in Batin (Esoteric Realm), and the Satan is also in Batin, and it becomes so difficult to recognise who is who.

The concerned knowledge is as important as the Faiz (spiritual grace) itself. And a living Spiritual Guide is more suitable. Faiz without the required knowledge will turn the aspirant into a Majzoob (an enlightened person who lost the intellect in God's love). Faiz accompanied by Ilm (the required knowledge) turns the aspirant into a Mehboob (Beloved of God). Mehboob renders Dunyawee Faiz (mundane benevolence) and Ruhaani Faiz (spiritual grace and training) to people through his Ilm. Whereas the Majzoob renders Dunyawee Faiz to people by beating them with sticks and swearing at them.

If none in your visualisation appears to help you, you might as well turn to His Divine Eminence Ra Gohar Shahi for help!

Religious affiliation is not mandatory; however, one must not be predestinately ill-fated. A large number of people may obtain the grace of God's name (initiation of the heart) from the image of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi on the Moon also. The method of obtaining the spiritual grace from the Moon: when the full moon is in the east, look at it carefully, say 'Allah' thrice as you see Gohar Shahi's picture on the Moon. And now, you are blessed! Now, start the exercise without any worries or fear according to the method mentioned here. Verily! The image of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi on the Moon has spoken with many individuals in all languages. You also may speak with the image on the Moon.

# Chapter of Muraqibah  
(Transcendental Meditation)

Most people try to establish meditation without awakening and spiritually strengthening their souls. Either the Satan traps them or they fail to establish the meditation at all. Meditation is suitable for the advanced-level seekers only, who have purified their hearts and mortified their Self (Nafs). Trying to establish Muraqibah is an act of folly for the beginners of the path, regardless of the nature of worship used therewith. Gathering the strength of the souls with God's Light, and arriving at their concerned station is Muraqibah.

Sainthood is one-fortieth part of Prophet-hood

All dreams, all Muraqibah, all Ilhaam, and Wahee (Revelation through Gabriel) of a Prophet are correct. Therefore, it does not need verification. However, only forty out of a hundred dreams, Muraqibah and Ilhaam (Revelation direct from God) of the Saints are correct, and the rest are wrong. Hence, it needs esoteric knowledge for its verification.

'Identification of God is not possible without the required knowledge.'

The lowest level of Muraqibah is established only after the awakening of the subtlety of Qalb. It is not possible without the opening of the heart. One shock brings the person back into consciousness. Istikharah (seeking divine help) also relates to the subtlety of the heart (Qalb). The next stage of Muraqibah is with the subtlety of the human soul. It takes three shocks to return to consciousness. The third Muraqibah is established together with the subtleties of the human soul and Ana. The human soul travels up to the Realm of Jabrut along with the subtlety of Ana, just as Gabriel travelled along with Mohammad up to the Realm of Jabrut. Whilst in Muraqibah, such people are so deeply lost in that state that they remain unaware of their surroundings even if they are buried in graves. 'Companions of the Cave' were in similar Muraqibah, because of which they remained in a sleeping state for over a period of 300 years. Whenever Abdul Qadir Jilani, a Saint from Baghdad, would occupy with such a Muraqibah in the jungle, the thieves from the jungle would bury him in a grave considering him dead. The Muraqibah would always break just before the burial.

Recognition of Extraordinary Inspiration and Revelation from God

As an aspirant- following the awakening and enlightenment of the subtleties of the breast- becomes worthy of receiving divine theophanies, God converses with him. God is Absolute Power, and He can converse with human beings by any means or methods, however, he has introduced a unique method in order to safeguard His Friends from falling prey to evil deception.

Firstly, the text appears on the heart in Suryani language, along with its translation in the language of the seeker. The text is white and bright, and the eyes close involuntarily, and watch the text (internally). The text then passes through Qalb, and moves on to the subtlety of Sirri as a result of which, it gets even brighter. Akhfah adds more brightness to it before it finally arrives to the tongue and the tongue spontaneously begins to read out the text. If this is an evil distortion, an enlightened heart dims the text, and if the text is powerful, then the subtleties of Sirri or Akhfah efface this text. If supposedly due to the weakness in the subtleties of the breast, the text reaches the tongue, the tongue then stops it from utterance.

This type of inspiration is exceptional to the elite of the Saints. God conveys messages to common Saints through angels and souls. The Wahee (Revelation) is exclusively classified to the Prophets only, and its text is always accompanied by Gabriel.

#  Who Deserves the Paradise?

Some predestined hellbound people endeavour to earn the paradise by way of good deeds and worship. But, in the end, they are rejected by God as the Satan was, because they inherit bukhl (stinginess), takabbur (false pride), and hassad (jealousy).

A Prophetic Tradition states, 'One who has even a tiniest amount of bukhl, hassad and takabbur shall not enter the paradise.'

Predestined paradise-bound individuals are easily recognisable even if they do not perform any worship. Such people are kind, pure, free of jealousy, covetousness, and they are generous. Should they engage in worship also, such people may attain a higher level of faith. God creates divine concessions for such people for their salvation. Some people stay suspended in between and do have a continuing record of their good and bad deeds.

And there are some elite of the elite individuals, and they did love God in the primordial time. They are carefree of the hell or the heaven; rather, they sacrifice all emotional, mental and physical belongings and attachments for the sake of God's love. They manage to enlighten their souls with the divine mercy and God's remembrance. Moreover, they manage to see God. For such people alone, is reserved the paradise of Firdaus.

For a category as such, the Prophet declares, 'Some people would enter the paradise without accountability.'

Explanation  
Luxuries of the world were written in the book of fate for those who were shown the modelled luxuries of the world. Such souls put even their life on stake to gain worldly pleasures. They committed crimes as horrible as robbery, bribery, usury, and rejected even God's unity (Wahdaniyat). Some of the souls from the above-mentioned category adopted religions, and performed worship to gain paradise; however, their attempts were wasted like that of the Azazeel (the Devil). Because the religion or faith they adopted was either blasphemous to God, or it was disapproved by God, hence, it hurdled in their way.

The second category of souls, who opted for the paradise, laid foremost priority on worship and austerities along with mundane chores. Greed of damsels and palaces in the paradise made them run to the worship places, thus they thrived in obtaining paradise. For those who, from this category, became lazy in regards to performance of worship, a divine concession earned them a place in the paradise as they were already paradise-bound in fate. However, they could not achieve the ranks equal to those of the pious ones in the paradise. For such people, God says, 'Do they perceive that we would equal them to the pious ones?' (As there are seven grades of the paradise). The sources of guidance for the common folks are the Prophets, the books, the Gurus and the Saints. They must enter a religion and affirm a declaration of faith (Kalima).The elite come under the Graceful Sight of God without a religion or a book. In other words, the Light guides them.

It is stated in the Scripture, 'God guides through the Divine Light whosoever he wishes to.'

It is said that the declaration of faith is an obligation for entry into the paradise. Remember the fact that the souls are to enter the paradise, not these bodies, and the Kalima is to be declared at the time of entry into the paradise. Therefore, the souls will declare the Kalima in Maqam-e-Deed (the Station of Beholding) at any time; or they might as well do it after death, just as the souls of Prophet Mohammad's father, mother and uncle were granted to affirm it after their physical demise. Bear in mind that the elite of the elite souls had already affirmed the declaration of faith, had taken the necessary vows, and had obtained the verification before their descent in this world.

The Prophet Mohammad said, 'I had already been a Prophet prior to my arrival in this world.' This is the utterance of the soul for the souls, as the body was given in this world only. The leaders exist only if there are nations to lead; similarly, the Prophets exist if there are followers to follow. In the absence of followers, Prophets are not required!

Then such people (the Saints) are sent into different religions, some in the guise of Baba Farid and some other in the guise of Guru Nanak. The souls in search of God do not mind the religion, and despite different religions, they seek guidance from whomsoever they believe is connected with God. Ghous Ali Shah, a Saint, wrote in his book, 'Tazkira Ghousia', 'I obtained spiritual grace from Hindu sages also.' The Muslims clerics could not understand the concealed secret behind it, so they issued fatwas of the death penalty for Ghous Ali Shah. They threatened the Muslims that their houses would be set on fire if that particular book was found in their possession. Interestingly enough, the book is still available in both India and Pakistan, and it is very popular.

Some nations accepted the Prophets, and some others rejected them. To the nations rejecting them, God, nevertheless, sent down the guides according to their religion. They taught their nations to save them from sins. The guides endeavoured to turn the direction of the followers towards the Lord, through their own method of worship, rituals, and customs. They taught them to love God, and establish peace. If such individuals were not around, all religions would have become thirsty of each other's blood today. Such souls receive guidelines from Vishnu Maharaj (Khidr) also, who knows the secrets of all religions.

#  Which Individuals Qualify for Taqwa (Piety)?

Ilm-ul-Yaqin (Belief Based upon Knowledge)   
Such people are worldly. They are at Maqam-e-Shuneed (belief based on hearsay). They have belief, based on knowledge. Their faith is based on hearsay and they have a tendency of going astray. They obtain livelihood, not through piety, but by making efforts; may it be earned by way of halal (permissible) or haram (prohibited).

Ain-al-Yaqeen (The Eye of Certainty)  
Individuals from this category are known as Tarak al Dunya (those that live in the world among people, however, they abstain themselves from the luxuries of the world). Their heart and inclination is towards God. They are often shown divine visions. Their station is that of seeing God. They earn by permissible means, and anything prohibited hurts them.

Haq-ul-Yaqeen (Belief Based upon Truth)  
Their station is that of Raseed (Intercession to God); God grants them a rank, and they come under the theophanies of God, and become indifferent to the world. They live among people in the world, yet refrain from both permissible and prohibited enterprises. God provides for them from the unseen resources even if they adopt a solitary lifestyle in the jungles. This is the station of Taqwa (Piety). Although the beginners in spirituality do claim to possess Taqwa, they do not successfully maintain it.

Taqdir (the Fate)  
There are two types of Fate:  
Azal (Already Decided Fate)  
Mu'allaq (Indecisive Fate)

Some people inquire, 'Why need we make an effort for the sustenance when it is already written in the fate?' Makhdoum Jahaniya replied, 'Making efforts for obtaining the sustenance is also written in the fate.'

For example: A flower vase has been placed for you on the roof (this is Taqdir-e-Azal). In order to get the flower vase, you have to climb up through the stairs onto the roof (this is Mu'allaq), which is your choice. It is for this conditional part that there will be reckoning on the Day of Judgement, and not in relation to what was destined in Azal. When you would climb on to the roof, you would collect what was written down for you and would obtain your fate. If you were lazy, and did not get up to the roof, then you would be deprived of it. On the other hand, if someone else, in whose fate there is no flower vase, manages to get on to the roof by the stairs or by some considerable effort, then he would still be deprived of it.

#  Third Category of the Soul

Those that desired neither the world nor the paradise and gazed at God's face only, sought God in this world and sacrificed all in search for God. Many kings also abandoned their kingdoms, made the jungle their abode, and put up with hunger and thirst. Some of the aspirants spent many years sitting in the rivers. After successful spiritual discipline, they became known as God's Friends. God deputised them on different saintly posts and divine assignments. And they became a divine remedy and a means of hope for the hellbound souls.

Just as the famous poet, Iqbal, mentions in one of his poems, 'A glance of a Godly man changes the fate.'

One must have physically seen the Spiritual Guide upon each birth of the terrestrial spirits. A relation with the Guru of the previous birth or a relation with the ancestral Guru becomes nullified with the present body, just as the Prophet-hood becomes invalid after the arrival of the Grand Messenger. Just as Moses (Musa Kalim Allah) was one of the Grand Messengers, and all the Prophets that came after Moses, their religions were abrogated on arrival of Jesus, Spirit of God (Isa Rouh Allah). And the Prophets that came (outside Arabia) in the duration between the time of Jesus (Spirit of God) and Mohammad, all of them were abrogated on the arrival of Mohammad. The religions founded by the Grand Messengers have been valid until date. These Grand Messengers are Adam Safi Allah, Ibrahim Khalil Allah (Abraham), Musa Kalim Allah, Isa Rouh Allah, and Mohammad Rasul Allah. And every Saint follows in the spiritual footsteps of the Grand Prophets (meaning receives the divine grace from their respective subtlety of the breast). Because all five subtleties of the human breast are related to the five Grand Messengers, on account of this, spiritual benevolence and Prophet-hood thereof remains valid until the Day of Judgement.

There is a general belief that one must recite the declaration of faith in order to enter the paradise. Please be warned that it does not refer to the declaration of faith belonging to a single Prophet in particular. And it alludes to the declaration of faith and religions belonging to all Grand Messengers. Remember well: Mohammad said, 'I have come to reform in what has been altered and not to deny any religion or celestial book of any Grand Messenger.' The spiritual doctrine and religion of Adam Safi Allah continues even today. Those that possess Dhikr Qalb, that weep and observe humility in God's name, that repent over their sins, and that seek to avoid sins fall under the category of the first religion. And this was the primary Prophet-hood and the primary form of worship.

Every Ghous (leader of a chain of Saints) and every Saint is on the footsteps (the particular spiritual path) of a particular Prophet. For example, the category mentioned above is on the footsteps of Adam Safi Allah.

Mujaddid Alif Thani said, 'I am on the footsteps of Moses.' The chain of Qalandars emerges from Jesus Christ. Abdul Qadir Jilani comes from Mashrab-e-Mohammad (the spiritual path of Mohammad).

#  Ponder! Progeny of Which of the Many Adams Do You Come From?

According to various celestial books, fourteen thousand different Adams came in this world. And some said, 'Adam Safi Allah is the fourteenth thousandth and the last Adam as well.' Verily, there came many Adams to this world. When Adam Safi Allah was being moulded with clay, the angels tipped, pointing towards Adam, 'This too would cause mischief and strife in the world.' The angels' remarks show that they were already aware of the stories of earlier Adams. Had there not been more than one Adam, how would they know as to how he would behave once he is in the world?

The Guarded Tablet contains various languages, various Kalimas, various Jantar Mantars (magical codes), various God's names, various scriptural verses, and even mentions magic acts, which the two angels, Harut and Marut, taught people. And as punishment, both of the angels are still hanging upside down in a well, in Babul (Babylon), one of the cities of Egypt. Each of the Adams was taught a language. Then, the Prophets were sent in these nations for their guidance. It is, therefore, said that one hundred and twenty-four thousand Prophets came to the world. It is six thousand years since Adam Safi Allah came to this world. Had a Prophet been sent every year to this world, the total number would not have exceeded six thousand. Sometime later, these nations were destroyed due to their disobedience. Just as archaeological excavations found the ancient cities later along with the writings in ancient languages, incomprehensible even today. Some nations were destroyed by hurricanes and among them, were survivors like those who survived in Noah's Hurricane. Finally, Adam Safi Allah was risen to an exalted nature above all others, and was sent in Arabia. All of the Grand Messengers were born in his progeny. The languages of the various Adams remained in practice among their surviving nations.

When the last Adam came, they were taught the Suryani language. When the children of Adam Safi Allah travelled far and wide for tourism, they came across members of the previous nations also. Some of them who either liked the place or were inspired by the lavish green fields settled in those places. Suryani was the language of the land in Arabia. Through inter-mingling of various nations, Suryani evolved other languages too, viz, Persian, Latin, Sanskrit, and finally the English language emerged through the process of lingo-evolution. Progeny of several different Adams was settled in various islands. One of the Adams was a gypsy; the race of this particular Adam still lives, and is responsible for discovering various nations.

The nations that lived in islands across the ocean were unaware of each other. A long sea-voyage was not possible either by horses or the paddled boats. Columbus successfully made a motorised ship, through which, he was the first one to have reached the American soil. He saw red people at the shore. He thought and he said, 'Perhaps, I have arrived in India, and they are Red Indians.' This is why this nation is called the Red Indians. They still live in North Dakota. I asked the chief of a Red Indian Tribe, 'Who is your Adam?' He replied, 'According to our religion, our Adam is in Asia, whose wife is Eve; but according to our history, our Adam came from a mountain in South Dakota.' The mountain is still marked as a historical place.

It is a general perception among people that the English and the Americans have a fair complexion owing to cold weather in their regions, but that is not true. Ancient lineage of dark complexioned Adam still exists in the same region which could not develop fair complexion until date. Therefore, this is the reason that the colour, the appearance, the temperament, the intellect, the languages and the diet of human beings differ. The chain of the progeny of Adam Safi Allah did not spread beyond the Middle East. This is why people of the Middle East resemble each other in features. It is generally believed that Adam Safi Allah descended in Sri Lanka and subsequently, migrated to the Arab region where he lived all his life. His grave is in the Arab region. The question is who pointed out the descent of Adam Safi Allah and his foot-proofs in Sri Lanka, which are still preserved? It establishes the fact that some tribe had pre-existed Adam Safi Allah's descent in Sri Lanka.

The Prophet-hood and Sainthood terminated in the nations that were destroyed. Their survivors, being deprived of these spiritual dignitaries, went astray some time later. As these lands were gradually discovered, the Saints from Asia reached these lands and taught the locals their respective religions. Today, the Asian religions have begun to be widely practised throughout these regions. Jesus was from Jerusalem, Moses was from Bethlehem, Mohammad was from Mecca; Noah and Abraham also were from Arabia.

Some of the generations were tormented and destroyed. Some other generations, as a punishment, were transformed into bears and apes. Some of the survivors out of sheer fear inclined towards God and the others regarded God as a penaliser, therefore, they developed contempt for God. They dismissed all commandments of God, and perceived that God never existed, man is an insect, and heaven and hell are but a myth. In Moses' era the nation that which was transformed into apes as a punishment headed towards Europe. The mothers-to-be from this nation still gave birth to human babies. This nation still exists. They believe themselves to originate from apes.

The nation which was transformed into bears headed towards the jungles of Africa. The mothers to be of the time bore human babies, and it further developed yet into another generation known as Mumm (Bigfoot). They have long hair all over the body. They are mostly women. They often kidnap humans. Religions do not interest them. Owing to their appearance as humans, they tend to cover the private parts of the body with tree leaves. One of the many Adams, due to his wrong-doings was awarded a thousand year's punishment, and was transformed into a snake. His surviving nation exists in the guise of a typical snake, called the Ruha. Exactly a thousand years after birth, they obtain the ability to transfigure as a human being.

Once upon a time, Alexander the Great had been to a jungle for hunting. As he was passing through, he saw a beautiful woman crying. She, when asked, said that she was the princess of China. She said that she had come there with her husband for hunting. A lion ate her husband, and thus she had been left behind alone. Alexander the Great said to her that he would have her sent back to China if she went with him. She said that her husband had died, and she was afraid she wouldn't be welcome back home. Alexander the Great took her home, and married her.

A few months later, Alexander the Great complained of a stomach ache. All sorts of remedies were tried on him, but his health did not improve. The pain worsened. The doctors were helpless. A snake charmer visited Alexander the Great to cure him. He told him in private that he could cure him; however, there were a few conditions. He further said, 'If I fail to cure you within a few days, you may get me killed by all means.' He advised, 'Tonight, prepare rice with lentils with an extra bit of salt. You and your wife should eat plenty of it. Lock the room from outside, so that neither of you are able to leave the room. Do not sleep, rather pretend to your wife that you are sleeping and make sure not even a single drop of water is available in the room.' Alexander the Great did as he was advised. Some time during the night, his wife felt thirsty and she noticed the water pot was empty. She tried to open the door, but it was locked. She looked at her husband and assumed he was in deep sleep. She transfigured into a snake and found her way through a hole. She drank water, re-entered the room in the form of a snake, and then she returned to the human form again. Alexander the Great saw it all. In the morning, he told the snake charmer all that he saw the previous night. The snake charmer said, 'Your wife is a female snake that transfigures after one thousand years and her poison caused the pain in your stomach.' Then, this woman was taken to the sea, on the pretense that they were going on excursion, and the sign where she was thrown still exists today and is called 'The Barrier of Alexander'. This particular species of snakes still exists in the world. Ordinary snakes do not have ears; however, these snakes that can turn into human beings have ears.

A tribe of an unknown Adam is secluded within the mountains of China. Dhul-Qarnain built a stone wall to prevent them from entering this region. They have very long ears and they use one ear as a bed sheet and the other as a blanket. They are known as Gog Magog. Science has discovered many regions but there still remains a lot to be discovered. The Eskimos live behind the mountains of the Himalayas. A group of man lives in the forests also. Nobody knows their language. They also, worship according to the principles taught by their Adam. They have a tribal system for discipline and principles of life. Besides these continents of Earth, there are many more planets, viz, the Moon, the Sun, Jupiter and Mars, etc. Adams came there also, however, these planets have already witnessed doomsday. Some of these were destroyed by cutting off the supply of oxygen and others were completely wiped out.

# Human life exists on Mars. Creatures made of fire live on the Sun.

Mars: People of all religions live on Mars. Our scientists have not reached Mars yet. However, the Martians have been to Earth many times. They have taken with them a few men from here for experiments. They are far more advanced in scientific knowledge and inventions than we are. Even if our satellites and scientists reach Mars, they cannot escape the Martians' hold.

God granted an abundance of knowledge to one of the Adams. His progeny gained access to Bait al Mamour (House of the Appointed One) through that knowledge. They would hear, on Earth, the commandments of God given to the angels. One day, the angels said, 'O' God, this nation is causing interference in our affairs. When we arrive in the world to accomplish our tasks, they have already found a deterrent.' God directed Gabriel to test them. A twelve-year-old boy was grazing goats and Gabriel asked him, 'Do you also possess some knowledge?' The boy said, 'Ask me.' Gabriel said, 'Tell me, where is Gabriel now?' The boy closed his eyes, and said, 'He is not in the skies.' Gabriel asked, 'Where is he?' The boy said, 'He is not on any land either.' Gabriel asked, 'Then where is he?' The boy opened his eyes and said, 'I have searched for him in the fourteen levels of the seven realms, but he is not anywhere. Either I am Gabriel, or you are.' Then God commanded the angels to drown this nation by flooding. They heard this decree of God, hence, began to build homes with iron and glass. They were destroyed through an earthquake. The ancient name of that region was Qalda, and now it is known as Greece. They, through spiritual knowledge interfered with divine affairs, and now our scientists, through the knowledge of science, are causing interference with the affairs of God.

In order to intimidate them, God plans destruction on a small scale, whereas, a comet has been sent towards Earth for total destruction. The comet is expected to fall on Earth in the next 20-25 years. That will be the last day of this world. A fragment of the comet has already fallen on Jupiter, two years ago. The scientists are aware of this and they plan to settle on the Moon or any other planet before the comet falls. Booking of the plots has already taken place on the Moon. They know that the basic elements of life such as air, water and plantation are absent on the Moon; then what is this endeavour aimed at? If they are making all these efforts for scientific research, what is the benefit to humanity even if they have reached the Moon and Jupiter? Have they discovered a breakthrough medicine which can prolong the ageing process, or a medicine that can defeat death? Even if our people reached Mars, they, due to the difference of oxygen on Earth and Mars, would not survive there. Money is being wasted on futile endeavours. Had the United States of America and Russia utilised the wealth on the poor, it would prosper all of humanity. Just because they belong to different Adams, they are making atomic bombs to destroy each other; whereas the world is destined to come to an end by itself without needing bombs.

# The Number of Souls Created in the Heaven Exceeded the Limit

The souls of the Elite (Muqarrib) were in the foremost row. Ordinary souls were sent into the nations of Adams that were created in this world. These Adams were created with black, white, yellow and red clay. Gabriel, Harut and Marut taught them knowledge.

As the Adams were created with clay in this world, the infernal Jinns would manage to enter them and their progeny's bodies and would attempt to gain control over them. Then the Prophets and the Saints in those nations, and the knowledge they taught, were the means for their salvation. A majority of Adams were created in the form of pairs that initiated a chain of progeny. However, occasionally only a woman was created as Adam and the progeny was initiated with the help of the Command, 'Be'. These nations still live in this world. In such tribes, only women are the leaders. Just because they are progeny of a woman, they perceive God also is a woman. They consider themselves to be the progeny of the angels. Since their female Adam's progeny was born without marriage and male copulation, this custom is still part of their culture. The women of these tribes bear children by anyone and later marry some other man. They do not regard this custom as indecent.

In accordance to the inclination of the souls, their destiny and their ranks, a similar category of Adams was sent to meet the similar types of souls. Therefore, no proper religion was formulated for them. Any Prophets sent into them were accepted but by a few people only. Rather, most of them acted the opposite to the teachings of the Prophets. Instead of God, they worshipped the Moon, the stars, the Sun, trees, fire and even the snakes.

Eventually, Adam Safi Allah was created in paradise with the clay thereof, so as to elevate him in eminence and superiority above all. And so that he may be protected against the infernal creatures, because paradise was inaccessible to the infernal creatures. Azazeel read the situation due to his intelligence. He was appointed the leader of the angels owing to his excessive worship. He was from the nation of the Jinns. Out of jealousy, he spat on Adam's body, and by means of the saliva, a bacterium similar to an infernal creature penetrated the body of Adam, which is known as Nafs. The progeny of Adam thus, inherit the Nafs. That is what this Prophetic Tradition, 'A Satanic Jinn is born with every human being,' alludes to.

The angels are different from the archangels. The angels dwell in Malakut, and the angels and the souls were created simultaneously. Above Malakut is Jabrut and the creatures thereof are known as archangels, which existed well before the souls were created with the Command, 'Be'.

God commanded the angels to prostrate before Adam Safi Allah. No other Adam was created in the paradise previously; neither had the angels prostrated before any other Adam. Azazeel was reluctant and denied to prostrate before Adam Safi Allah, hence, he was cursed. This is why he initiated enmity against Adam Safi Allah's progeny. Nations of the previous Adams were safe from the enmity of Azazeel and the infernal Jinns sufficed to incite them. Since the Satan was more powerful than all the infernal Jinns, he controlled and taught the progeny of Adam Safi Allah such disgusting crimes that the other nations reproached the Asians. And eminence of Adam Safi Allah was the reason why those among his progeny whom God guided became sublime and eminent, that the other nations were stunned by their grandeur and envied them. The greatest celestial books, the Old Testament, the Psalms of David, the New Testament and the Koran were revealed upon the Messengers from among the progeny of Adam Safi Allah. Through their teachings, benevolence and blessings, the Asian religion spread among all nations of the world.

The soul was not yet inserted in the body of Adam Safi Allah, and the angels realised that he too was being created to be sent into the world. They knew for sure that the man made with clay dwells on Earth only. God tricked Adam into sending him to Earth. God himself plots the eternal acts and the humans are held blameworthy for them. Had Adam Safi Allah been sent without being tricked into blame, he would have always complained and grumbled in the world. He would not repent or cry in modesty, would he?

1. If the predestined hellbound souls are born in a non-religious household, they turn into Kafir (Infidel) and Kadhib (those who label the truth as a lie). These individuals are the atheists, the enemies of the Prophets and the Saints. They are arrogant and stone hearted men, and they find pleasure in harming the creatures of God. The second category of the souls remains naive of the religions even if they adopt a religion. They turn into hypocrites, in the case that they are born in a religious household.

2. Such individuals are blasphemous to the Prophets, jealous of the Saints, and cause mischief in the religions. Their worship also is wasted like that of Iblis. The religion draws them towards the paradise, but their fate pulls them towards the hellfire. Since they remain deprived of the support and assistance of the Prophets and the Saints, therefore, they are easily incited by their Nafs and trapped in evil plots, afflicted by the Satan. They perceive that they possess sufficient knowledge and perform excessive worship; hence, they see no difference between the Prophets and themselves. Then they begin to consider themselves as a Prophet without peeping into their inner self. And they perceive that even the Saints stand in need of them. They do not admit knowledge of spirituality, and miracles, nevertheless, they only accept the acts which they are able to perform. They reject even the miracles of the Prophets, and label them as magic. They admit the powers of Iblis (the Devil), but they are reluctant to admit the divine might, which God invests in the Prophets and the Saints.

3. When a predestined heaven-bound soul takes birth in a non-religious household or in an impure environment, it is known as Mazour (Helpless). Mazour may qualify for the bakhshish (concession) and divine pardon. These are the souls that seek the favour of the Saints in their pursuit of Sirat al Mustaqeem and to exit from the quicksand of sins. They are kind, humble and generous.

4. If the predestined heaven-bound soul takes birth in a religious household that practises a celestial religion, is known as Sadiq (natural believer) and Momin (enlightened believer). These are the ones that through extensive Ibadah (worship) and Riyadhah (extensive worship and struggle) obtain God's nearness and become worthy of the divine inheritance.

Prophetic Tradition: 'Faqr (spiritual poverty) is my pride, and it is from me.'

The heart has the central and very important role in spirituality.

The disciples raised the heartbeats in many ways such as striking beats on the respective subtlety, dancing, Kabaddi (a type of sport), building walls, demolishing them and through physical exercises. Then it became easier to synchronise the word 'Allah' within the heartbeats and gradually the word 'Allah', itself, reached all the subtleties of the breast. Some people, without profound knowledge and awareness, started to imitate them, but they failed. They adopted the method of repeating the word 'Allah' while dancing. Neither did they know of synchronisation of the heartbeats with God's name nor did they manage to achieve it. Nevertheless, their bio-spirit, which represents physical activity, became familiar with God's name. Repetition of the word 'Allah' with music strengthens the botanical spirit and it also becomes familiar with the word 'Allah'. Music is the sustenance for the botanical spirit. In the USA, an experiment was conducted on some crops through music. Similar crops were sowed in similar soil. Music was played constantly, 24/7 on one crop, and the other was kept without music. The one with the music was better in growth than the other.

The Nafs is rigid tormentor. Even after the purification, the Nafs is fond of making pretexts. It likes sound and music. Some individuals tried to change its direction towards God through music. Some people repeated the word 'Allah' while playing the guitar, and reached the worship by ears, though they could not obtain anything further. A guitarist relayed to me a story that he, as a hobby in his leisure time, used to invoke upon Allah while playing the guitar. Occasionally, as he woke up, he heard the invocation of Allah from within himself in the same manner. These people are better than singers, musicians and listeners; nevertheless, they could not reach any rank of Sainthood. Such people are enthusiastic, zealous and in search for God. Through a Perfect Spiritual Guide, they may reach their spiritual destiny. Sufis in Islam and other religions also adopted the way of absorbing God's name through various means and methods. Anything that directs one towards God, and increases in His love is not disallowed.

Tradition of the Prophet: 'God looks at the intentions, not the actions.'

People of Sharia (religious law) label it as blameworthy and wrong because they are content and satisfied with Sharia. But those who want to go beyond Sharia and want to obtain God's love, or those who don't practise Sharia, should not be halted from seeking a substitute.

# The Religion of God

All religions were established by the Prophets in this world; however, prior to this, God himself was Love, the Lover, and the Beloved. And for the souls that were in nearness, the divine manifestation and love of God was the Religion of God. Then, these souls, when they were sent to this world, sacrificed all their possessions in order to reach God. The Religion of God was primarily confined to the elite only, and now it has been made accessible to the common folks also, through the widespread of spiritual knowledge.

A Prophetic Tradition narrated by Abu Hurera: 'I received two different types of knowledge from the Prophet Mohammad. I told you of one, you would kill me if I told you the other.'

When Mevlana Rumi's Spiritual Guide pulled up the dry books from the pond, Mevlana Rumi exclaimed, 'What is it?' Shah Shams, the guide, said, 'You are not aware of this knowledge.'

Moses asked God, 'Is there any other type of knowledge, apart from what you have bestowed on me?' God directed Moses towards Khidr.

Every worshipper's prayer: 'O' God, guide me unto the Straight Path, the one of those that you are pleased with.'

The famous poet of the east, Iqbal, said, 'And what does a naive clergyman know of it (the Religion of God)?'

The souls which were granted ranks in the primordial time loved God, and God loved them. Such souls remained loyal to God in the world also. Jesus Christ miraculously spoke in infancy, and announced that He was a Messenger. The Archangel Gabriel had already given glad tidings of Jesus' birth to Mother Mary. Pharaoh had been foretold of a child's birth in a certain tribe who would cause destruction to him, and that the child would be one of the elite servants of God. Prophet Mohammad also said, 'I was already a Prophet prior to my arrival in this world.' Many of the loving and predestined souls are present in various religions and bodies.

_______________________

Observations:  
Deen-e-Ilahi (God's Religion)

God has sent to the world 124,000 Prophets and five Grand Messengers for the guidance of humankind, and they have established 313 different religions to facilitate humankind to earn paradise and reach their ultimate destiny.

Deen literally means lifestyle. Deen-e-Ilahi is God's lifestyle. God's lifestyle is the Religion of God, and it is as ancient as God Himself. God is all love, and He manifests His attributes on daily basis. To be able to adopt God's lifestyle is to adopt God's religion. Many religious scholars may not comprehend its unique nature and subtle application; however, God's religion is above all religions.

# In the End Times

In the end, God will send forth one of the above mentioned souls. He will find and unite them together. And He will remind them that they also once loved God. All such souls whether or not they are religious will attend to his call, and flock around Him. He will grant them a unique name of God, which will pass through their hearts and settle in their souls. The souls will constantly engage with the repetition of that name (the soul will become a permanent Dhakir). The unique name of God will confer on them a brand new enthusiasm, a new power and a new definition of love. The Noor (Divine Energy) of the unique name of God will reconnect the soul with God.

Dhikr Qalb serves like an intermediary ladder to obtaining Dhikr Rouh (invocation of the soul), just as the rituals of Salat (a form of worship) and fasting are means of obtaining the invocation of the heart. If the soul of an individual has learnt to invoke God, he is among those who shall have no fear of accountability and the Divine Scale on the Day of Judgement. The advanced stages of invocation and worship of soul confirm his elevated rank. Individuals that are progressing in spirituality from the heart towards the soul are among those who have entered the Religion of God or are about to enter it. Their means of guidance is God's Light, not the books. God's Light, itself, keeps them away from committing sins. And those who, even by striving or by learning about it, are deprived of this spiritual status, are not included in this Spiritual League. Heretics are those that, without invocation of the heart and the soul, consider themselves among those in this Spiritual League or imitate them. The means of salvation for common folks is worship and religion. The means of guidance are the celestial books. The means of intercession are through the Prophets and the Saints. Many Muslims do not accept the fact that the Saints can provide people with intercession to God. However, Prophet Mohammad advised his companions to request Owais Qarni to provide his Ummah (following) with intercession to God.

# Religion of Souls  
Recognition of the followers of Deen-e-Ilahi, 'Religion of God'

'Into which all the rivers merge is known as an ocean, and into which all the religions merge is the Religion of God. This is the divine avenue where all four religions intermingle.' (Sultan Haq Bahu)

The Elementary Stage of Recognition   
When both the heart and the soul are revived with God's remembrance, whether it is through performance of worship or through the merciful sight of the Spiritual Guide, in both cases, it is predestined. The seeker begins to disapprove of sins and if a sin is committed, he feels blameworthy and makes efforts to avoid it in the future.

God says, 'I like those individuals also who exert themselves to refrain from sins.'

Love of the world starts to leave off the heart, and God's love starts to prevail. The seeker begins to feel he is getting rid of greed, jealousy, stinginess and false pride. The tongue quits backbiting. The seeker observes humility in him. Stinginess is replaced by generosity, and the lies leave off. Prohibited carnal desires are replaced by lawful ones. The seeker begins to disapprove of unlawful wealth, prohibited provision and actions.

The Ultimate Stage of Recognition  
One completely quits hashish, opium, heroin, tobacco and alcohol. One meets highly spiritual dignitaries in dreams, meditation and through spiritual insight. Nafs Al Ammara (the Commanding Self) turns into Nafs Mutma'inna (the Divinely Content Self). The Ana enters in a private audience with God. All the veils between God and the man are lifted. One shuns the sins. One obtains the ultimate station in God's love and union with Him. He turns into a Provider from being a simple man.

Since souls of the elite from different religions would join this Spiritual League, as they had already affirmed the declaration of faith before God on the primordial day, and God had witnessed it; therefore, affiliation with a religion would not be a problem (and anyone from any religion would be able to join it). All would be allowed to worship according to their respective religions. However, their hearts would bear the same name of God. In short, they would be united in hearts regardless of their religious background. They will become Godly when they will have God in their hearts. Subsequent to this, God may either confine somebody to Himself or send anybody as a guide in any religion. There will be different categories for them: Mufeed (useful to render guidance), Munfarid (good for himself), Soldiers, Commanders. The supporters and helpers from the category of sinners also will reach some kind of rank.

Many of those (Muslims or non-Muslims) who failed to join this League of Mehdi would join the Anti-Christ (Dajjal). In the end, there will be a bloody war between the forces of Imam Mehdi and the Anti-Christ. Followers of Jesus Christ, Imam Mehdi and Kalki Avatar will be united and will defeat the Anti-Christ. The majority of the followers of the Anti-Christ will be killed, and their survivors will live in fear and helplessness quietly. Imam Mehdi and Jesus Christ will reign over the hearts of humanity. Peace will prevail in the entire world. All the religions will perish, and a new religion will emerge. That will be God's favourite religion, 'Ishq-e-Allah' (God's rapturous love) - the gist of all religions established by the Prophets and their celestial books, acceptable to the entire humankind, superior to all forms of worship, even greater than God's love.

'Faith is not aware of where the rapturous love of God can take the seeker to.' (Sultan Haq Bahu)

Iqbal had drawn a picture of these times:

The world needs the Mehdi whose vision will shake the foundation of Universal Thoughts. The hidden secrets are to reveal for the era of the hadith-phrase 'You cannot see me' has gone past. Whoever's personal identity of the Self becomes known first, is the Awaited Imam Mehdi. Open my eyes in the mirror of comprehension, and see for yourself the vague picture of future.

Look at the sky, the earth, the space, and the rising Sun from the east.

O' Giver of the wine, the era when the drinkers would hide and drink is history now. The entire world will be a tavern one day, and every soul on earth a drinker.

The time for unveiling is nigh, seeing the divine splendour will be common. The secret that silence kept veiled will soon manifest now.

Emerging from the desert, who toppled up the Roman Empire, I heard angels saying that the lion will be in action again.

None of the celestial books or Saheefah (random inspiration from God) is God's Religion. These books direct the followers to adopt Salat, fasting and growing a beard, whereas God is carefree of such restraints. These religions were established to enlighten and purify the nations of the Prophets; whereas, God Himself is the purest form of Light. When a man, after union with God, becomes Light, then he too enters the Religion of God. God's Religion is His love and affection. It is the translation and definition of His ninety-nine names. God is one who makes mention of His Friends. God, Himself is Love, Lover and Beloved. Should God grant a man a portion from the attributes mentioned above, then he too enters the Religion of God. Then, seeing God is his worship (Salat), and the remembrance of God is his longing. The seeing of God provides atonement for his missed obligatory and non-obligatory rituals. Then, not even the collective worship of the Jinns, the angels and the entire human race can reach his spiritual level.

For such a person, Abdul Qadir Jilani said, 'Worship or its intent after one has acquired union with God is a grave ingratitude to the divine bounty.'

Bulleh Shah said, 'Since we adopted the worship of Ishq, we became forgetful of mosques and temples.'

Iqbal said, 'A naive clergyman may not be aware of such a delightful divine bounty.'

With reference to this secretive doctrine did Abu Hurera say, 'Mohammad granted to me knowledge of two types, I told you of one of the types, you would kill me if I told you the other.'

The history bears witness to the fact that whoever revealed this knowledge was killed as Shah Mansoor and Sarmad were. And today, even Gohar Shahi, due to His revealing of this knowledge, is threatened with similar consequences.

The Prophets abide by the Sharia law to become a model for the Ummah (nation), so that they may imitate and follow. Otherwise, they do not need to worship. They have the rank of Prophet-hood since primordial time, long before the existence of the Sharia law. Since they have to perfect the religion as a model, if the Prophets miss out any of the rituals, or if they adopt an act, their nation imitates them. Hence they have to remain careful and sober. Can anyone be justified to say that a Prophet will enter the hellfire if he does not worship? Not at all! Can anyone be justified to say that one cannot be a Prophet if he does not worship? Can anyone claim that one cannot become a Prophet if he does not learn the knowledge? Why are the Saints made subject to objections? Note that Sainthood is a substitute to Prophet-hood.

Remember well: those that claimed to possess unification and union with God without seeing God, or perceived themselves to be worthy of this status and pretended to be as such are heretics and deniers of the truth. Verily! The Koran curses such liars who deny the truth. Due to them, thousands of believers lose their faith and happen to waste their valuable time.

This book is worthy of research and consideration for all religions, sects and all humanity, and is a live challenge to those who refute spirituality.

#  Utterances of His Divine Eminence R.A. Gohar Shahi

There are three parts of exoteric knowledge and one part of esoteric knowledge.

One has to find a Moses to obtain exoteric knowledge and a Khidr to obtain esoteric knowledge from.

The inspirational voice that one hears without the presence of the Gabriel is known as Ilhaam. The knowledge that one obtains without the Gabriel accompanying it, is known as Saheefa (Divine Scroll) and Hadith Qudsee (conversation with God without a medium). The knowledge conveyed through the Gabriel is known as the Koran, whether it contains exoteric knowledge or esoteric knowledge, whether you call it the Torah, the Psalms of David or the Bible.

The religious scholars get away with their faults and errors by labelling it as politics. Faults and errors by the Saints are regarded and ignored as acts of wisdom. Faults and errors by the Prophets are not regarded as faults and errors.

The concerned souls inside the human body gain strength with whatever type of spiritual practice they are engaged in. And those that are not engaged in any spiritual practice are dormant and senseless. And those that, through any means, have absorbed God's name in their souls, their hobby is then constant remembrance of God (Dhikr Sultani) and Rapturous Love of God (Ishq-e-Allah).

No wonder Iqbal, said, 'If you possess Rapturous Love of God, your kufr (ingratitude) is Islam (submission to God).'

Sachal Sain said, 'Denial or submission to God becomes insignificant and nullified when one does not love God.'

Sultan Haq Bahu said, 'The stage of belief is unaware of the station of God's Rapturous Love.'

God's mercy falls upon the land where such individuals visit or stay, and the religions they belong to or join also come under God's shower of mercy. Baba Farid and Baba Guru Nanak are from among such Saints. Then, the Hindus and the Sikhs do not hesitate to pay homage to Baba Farid, and the Muslims and the Christians do not hesitate to pay homage to Baba Guru Nanak.

#  Imam Mehdi will rejuvenate all the religions!

Mujaddid (the revivers) emerged within Muslim Ummah in the post-Mohammadan era, and they revived the religion. The amendment of these Mujaddid will become ineffective after the advent of Imam Mehdi. And Imam Mehdi will rejuvenate all religions in his very own way. It is mentioned in several books that Imam Mehdi shall found a brand new religion.

# Utterances of His Divine Eminence Ra Gohar Shahi

If an individual worships all his life, but in the end, he happens to oppose Imam Mehdi and Jesus Christ (return of both the Personalities to this world is imminent; Jesus Christ appears with the same body as he was raised up with, and Imam Mehdi in the body with the terrestrial spirits of Prophet Mohammad), such an individual is hellbound in the similitude of Balyim Ba'our, and he is as rejected by God as Iblis (the Devil) was. On the contrary, if an individual lives all his life like a dog, but in the end, he happens to support and love Imam Mehdi and Jesus Christ, such an individual shall enter paradise in the similitude of Qatmir.

Some of the religions and sects say, 'Jesus had died, and his tomb is situated in Afghanistan.' This is a misleading propaganda. The tomb in Afghanistan is not that of Jesus Christ, but of a Saint whose name also is Isa. In that primitive age, what could have been the purpose of burial at such a far off place? They argue, 'How was Jesus raised to the skies?' We say, 'How was Adam descended on earth?' Remember: Idrees (Enoch) still lives physically in Paradise. Khidr (A mystical figure) and Ilyas (Elias) are present on earth, and they haven't tasted death yet.

Hayat Al Amir, the grandson of Abdul Qadir Jilani, also has been living for 600 years. Abdul Qadir Jilani instructed him, 'Do not die until you convey my salutation to Imam Mehdi.' It is Hayat Al Amir who gave Shah Latif the title of Bari Imam. The site of his sitting place is still preserved in Bara Koh which is situated near Murree, Pakistan.

Punishment for exoteric sins is imprisonment, fine or the death penalty. Blameworthiness is the punishment for the ones on the spiritual path. However, the punishment for the esoteric sins is severe. For those who backbite, a certain amount of virtues are transferred as a fine from their account to those affected. Greed, jealousy, stinginess and false pride efface their hard-earned virtues. Such individuals, if they possess a certain amount of God's Light, lose it when they blaspheme and hold grudges against Prophets and Saints, just as Sheikh Sanan's marvels and spiritual insight were confiscated due to blasphemy against Abdul Qadir Jilani.

Bayazid Bastami learnt that a man spoke ill of him. Bayazid started to pay him for this. The man accepted the money, yet he continued to speak ill of him. One day, his wife said to him, 'Either you should stop accepting the money, or you should stop speaking ill of Bayazid Bastami.' He started praising Bayazid Bastami. When Bayazid Bastami found out that he then praised him, he stopped his financial support. He visited Bayazid and said, 'You paid me when I spoke badly about you, why did you stop my financial support now when I praise you?' Bayazid said,' Then you were my servant, you spoke ill of me and it would burn my sins. You stopped doing it, why should I pay you now?' The vices mentioned here relate to Nafs Al Ammara, and Iblis (the Devil) is its helper. Piety, generosity, forgiveness, patience and gratitude, humility and theophanies belong to Qalb-e-Shaheed. And Wali-Murshid (Spiritual Master) is its guardian and helper (he helps the disciple against evil plots).

In the presence of Nafs Al Ammara, Light of Divine Words do not stay in the heart, even if one memorises the verses of the celestial book. Similitude of such an individual is that of a parrot. When Nafs turns to the Contented Self, then no impurity can stay in you. Then, your cockerel of lust becomes pure. For purification of Nafs, find a Divinely Appointed Nafs-Shikan (the Self Demolisher), and such Sages are appointed by God at all times.

The exterior of the body is cleansed with water while the interior is purified with God's Light (Noor). Without cleanliness, it is unclean and impure for only the clean body deserves the worthiness of worship. And worthiness of divine theophanies is for the clean heart only. And this is when the celestial books render guidance to the pure ones. Otherwise, the people of the books become enemies to each other. Mujaddid Alif Thani states in his book, 'Individuals with Nafs Al Ammara are not worthy of studying the Koran.' The beginners in spirituality must initially strive to purify themselves by means of Dhikr Allah (God's remembrance). And the seekers who are in the final stages in spirituality are advised to study the Koran.

Mohammad said, 'The Koran curses on some of its readers.'

Bulleh Shah said, 'Such people enjoy the divine favours and deny it, yet to show off, they carry the Koran under their armpit.'

A worshipper perceives that he is near to God because he is awake all night worshipping God. But after worship, your prayers are for health, long life, wealth, and for the damsels and slaves of the Paradise. Ponder! Did you ever pray to God, 'O' God, I desire from Thee nothing but Thee'? A religious scholar perceives that he is near to God hence he thinks he has already obtained salvation. He thinks, 'I have knowledge of the Koran in me.' The question is why then do you declare others as hellbound though every Muslim possesses some amount of knowledge and has memorised some of the verses of the Koran? Ponder! Who sells the divine knowledge? And who sells himself? Who backbites against the Saints? Who possesses jealousy, false pride and greed? Whose custom is it to bear one thing in the heart and something else on the tongue? Who says one thing in the morning, and denies it in the evening? Who presents the truth as falsehood, and falsehood as the truth? If you are far from these traits, then you are a Khalifa-e-Rasul (Deputy of the Prophet), and showing the back to you is a great disrespect. Meaning, an orator in appearance while the Koran in reality.

If you are afflicted with such diabolical traits, perhaps, you are from among the clerics of the fourteenth century for whom the wolf said, 'May I be counted as those who ate the Prophet Joseph.'

# Sirat al Mustaqeem (Straight Path Leading to God)

1. Those whose outward is correct but inward is darkened, are a cause of mischief within the religion, and are caliphs of Iblis (the Devil). Tradition of the Prophet Mohammad: 'Be fearful of the ignorant scholar and distance yourselves from him whose tongue is a scholar but the heart is ignorant (meaning darkened).'

2. Those whose inward is pure but outward is diabolical are known as Majzoob (spiritually incompetent), Mazour (Helpless), Sukar (spiritually intoxicated) and Munfarid (Unique).

Taryaq-e-Qalb: 'What of the accountability when the intellect is lost in God's love!'

They are a sign of perplexity in the religion however they are in nearness to God. They cannot obtain any further rank or spiritual status. The appointed ones on the ranks are divinely verified, whereas the imposters become heretics. And it was the appointed ones who beat up and verbally abused persons like former President Ayoub, Benazir Bhutto and Nawaz Sharif when they were in power. Could you beat up somebody in power? Thus, certain acts are confined to the appointed ones only, and a common man cannot copy them.

3. If the outward and the inward both are enlightened and pure, and one engages himself in the outward form of worship as well as invocation by heart, such individuals are known as Alim-e-Rabbani (the Divine Scholars). They inherit the intuitional understanding of the religion and are the Prophet's representatives. As when individual's outward and inward both are unified, they are known as Second-to-God. If he performs Hajj spiritually or in a dream, then they are rewarded outwardly also, which is an even greater reward than that of Hajj when done outwardly. Ritual prayer by souls is entitled to be equivalent to the outward prayer. Verily, even greater than that! When such an individual performs ritual prayers (Salat) outwardly, it is highly ranked in spirituality also. These are the individuals whose bodies are here among people on earth yet their souls are with God there in higher realms. In the faculty of faqr (the spiritual poverty), such individuals are called Mua'arif (whose soul is the Saint) also. Seeing God suffices and satisfies the thirst of God's lover. Some people say, 'God cannot be seen.' Beware: Prophet Mohammad introduced the knowledge through which God can be seen. Imam Abu Hanifa said, 'I saw God in dreams ninety-nine (99) times.' Bayazid Bastami said, 'I saw God seventy (70) times.' God can be seen through the Faculty of Ana (which lies in the head). However, you are indifferent and unaware of its concerned knowledge and invocation.

The Friend of God:

If people believe someone to be a Saint based on his spiritual insight, marvels and spiritual benevolence, but their heart is disgusted by his religion or any of his deeds, they better stop visiting him rather than passing bad remarks about him. Beware! Someone may be an apple of God's eye or a Sheikh Baqa, a Laal Shahbaz, a Khidr or a Sai Baba! You may also encounter an Eternal Divine Bride.

# His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi's Revolutionary Message to Humankind

A Muslim says, 'I am superior to all.' A Jew declares, 'I am even better than the Muslim.' And a Christian says, 'I am greater than both the Muslim and the Jew, and the rest of the religions, because I am the nation of God's Son.'

But His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi declares that superior and best of all is the one who possess God's love in his heart, in spite of his indifference to any religion.

'Performance of verbal rituals depicts his obedience and submission to God, whereas invocation by the heart serves as an intermediary to obtaining God's love and communication with God.'

Those whom God has granted some rank are divinely verified and those that copy are heretic. The false claimant of Prophet-hood is an act of infidelity whereas a false claimant of Sainthood is not far behind infidelity. A Saint is God's Friend, and it is essential for a friend to have spoken with him and seen him. Prophet Mohammad once warned his companions that some of the deeds of the Prophet must not be copied and that they are confined to the Prophet only.

The prayers of every Musalli (worshipper): 'O' God, show me the way of those upon whom you bestowed your bounty.' The true Salat has to be performed in Bait al Mamour, and the soul continues to perform such Salat even after the physical demise, just as the souls of all the Prophets offered Salat in Bait al Muqaddas (Dome of Rock) on the Night of Ascension (Laila tul Meraaj). The seeker must abide by the law of Sharia until he has seen God unveiled. Nevertheless, God has ordained a substitute for the sinners and those who are lazy in worship. Heart Invocation with God's name indemnifies for the sins and missed out worships, and it turns the aspirant into an enlightened conscience and lover of God eventually.

'Then do remember your Lord whilst standing, sitting and tossing on your bed, as when your prayer (Salat) missed out.'(Koran)

Nearness, attachment, amiable glances and well-wishes of the Saints also brighten the fate of sinners, and save them from hell. Please note that Prophet Mohammad sent his companions to Owais Qarni to pray for salvation of his Ummah (following). Generosity, Riyadhah (extensive worship and struggle) and martyrdom also may indemnify for the sins, and qualify the sinner for salvation. God appreciates modesty, repentance and tears also. 'God's favour: due to this, Nasuha, the one who used to steal the shrouds of dead bodies, and who used to dishonour and assault dead bodies of women, was forgiven by God.' (The Koran)

One day, Jesus asked the Satan, 'Who is your best friend?' The Satan replied, 'A miser worshipper.' Jesus exclaimed, 'Explain how.' The Satan said, 'His stinginess nullifies his worship.' Jesus continued to ask, 'Who is your worst enemy?' The Satan said, 'A generous sinner.' Jesus exclaimed, 'Explain how.' The Satan said, 'His generosity washes away his sins.'

Those who love and take care of God's Elite and the common creation, and those who support Haq (the Truth) and maintain justice also become worthy of God's Mercy.

One day the poet, Iqbal, when he was a student of 3rd or 4th grade, was returning home from his school when he saw a female dog following him. He climbed the stairs to his home, while the female dog kept staring at him senselessly. He thought, 'Perhaps she is hungry.' His father had left a loaf of bread for him. He put before her a half of the loaf. She ate it right away, yet she kept staring at him senselessly. He fed her the other half too, and remained hungry for the rest of the day. His father received glad tidings during the night regarding the appreciable act of his son that he had become God's Favourite.

Subaktgeen noticed that a deer was following behind his horse as he started to ride away from the jungle, carrying a baby deer. Subaktgeen stopped and noticed that the deer stopped too, raising her head and staring into the sky. Subaktgeen realised that tears were rolling down her eyes. He released the baby deer. Following this incident, God showered so much mercy upon him that afterwards he would often weep in the name of God.

Mevlana Rumi says, 'A moment's company of a Saint is far better than the sincere worship of one hundred years.'

A Holy Tradition of Prophet Mohammad states, 'God says, "I become his tongue with which he speaks, and I become his hands with which he holds."'

Abu Dharr Ghaffari said, 'On the Day of Judgement, as the people recognise the Saints, they will say, "O' God, I helped him with ablution." God will reply, "Let him be granted salvation." Another man will say, "O' God, I gave him clothes to wear and gave him food to eat." God will reply, "Let him also be granted salvation." This is how countless men will find salvation.'

Hadith Qudsee: God said, 'And I declare war against those who bear animosity towards my Saints.'

God's style of waging a war is not beheading somebody for once, rather He destroys the faith of the criminals, and such criminals continue to suffer from this agony eternally ever after in hell.

People say, 'Worship is the means to find God.' I declare, 'The heart is the passage that leads to God.'

Worship is but the means to cleanse the heart. You are remotely far off God should you fail to cleanse the heart through worship. God warns, 'It is not the actions, the bodies and the faces that I look at, rather, the hearts and intentions therein.' Nevertheless, performance of worship may lead one to paradise. God however, is still far off reach. This esoteric knowledge is suitable to those who aim not to go after paradise and its damsels but to seek just love, proximity and union with God.

Then as it appears in the verse of Kahaf, 'God helps them find a Spiritual Guide (Murshid-Wali).'

When God is pleased by an admirable act of His servant, God looks at him out of utter love, and that washes away his sins. Those who keep company of such individuals also come under the Merciful Sight of God. God's Friends, 'The Companions of the Cave' were in deep meditation. Meanwhile, God continued to look at them with love and affection, which will lead to their companion dog's entry into paradise. When Sheikh Farid earned God's Merciful Sight, the shepherd accompanying him was also blessed.

When God became pleased with Abu Al Hassan due to his efforts, God began to talk with him. One day, God said to him, 'O' Abu Al Hassan, people will stone you to death if I tell them about you.' He replied, 'Nobody will prostrate before you if I tell them how merciful you are!' God said, 'Don't tell them anything, and either will I.'

When Zayed was arrested for the third time for consuming alcohol, the Companions of the Prophet said, 'Curse him, he repeats this crime time after time.' Prophet Mohammad said, 'Do not curse him, for he loves God and His Messenger, and those who love God and His Messenger cannot be sent to hellfire.' Verily, God loves and takes care of all His creation. God provides for even the helpless insects that dwell in stones. As disobedient offspring are punished and disinherited, similarly, God becomes a penaliser for the disobedient and blasphemous ones.

Believe the fact God wants to look at you also, but you are either naive, careless or ill-fated. You beautify and groom your face with soap and cream because people look at it. Have you ever cleansed what God wants to look at?

A Prophetic Tradition states, 'There is a cleanser for washing up all objects, as for the heart; God's remembrance.'

Those who just verbally proclaim and say, 'I love you,' are merely bluffing. Love is an involuntary gift that manifests unplanned. You begin to love what dwells in thy heart! Platonic love concerns itself to the heart. The means of bringing God in the heart are visualisation of God's name, God's remembrance articulated within the heartbeats, and the Saints.

The engine alone cannot make a vehicle work and it cannot transport anybody to their destination until other parts of the vehicle are also fitted in it. Similarly, Salat is also incomplete without attainment of the mortification of the Self (Nafs) and purification of the heart. When you think that without these necessities your worship is sufficient, and that this will earn you the paradise, then why do you label others as hellbound when they too worship? The difference is one is riding on the donkey of Jesus Christ, and the other on the donkey of the Anti-Christ. However, both are black and darkened in the hearts. (Meaning, one has faith in Jesus but is deprived of the purification of the heart, hence he is fooling himself into believing that he belongs to Jesus. The other one has a troubled heart, hence his heart is darkened). They follow different creeds only, and the creeds will not go forth but the souls will.

When Salat is confined to verbalisation only, and the heart is polluted with absurdities such as greed and jealousy, it is known as Salat al Surat (worship of the body only). Common folks suffer from this wishful thinking, and continue to be victims of sectarianism. Their propagation of religion creates mischief within the religion. For example: you practised a sectarian school of thought, and worshipped for 10-15 years, and later you realised some other sectarian school of thought was correct, and you joined it. It suggests that the previous sect you practised was false. And God doesn't honour any worship practised under a false belief system. This is how you rejected the worship (Salat) you carried out for 10-15 years. The chances are the new sect you have adopted might as well be a false one. And all your previous and future worship became a total waste. And at the end of the day you found yourself back to square one where you started from. You should have sought a Spiritual Guide than to waste your precious time.

#  The Tenet of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi

If the pious ones and the worshippers of all religions stand in a row, and God is requested to manifest His accord as to which ones of them would He prefer to look at, who would He choose? As you would involuntarily look at the glittering stars, whether it is Mars, Mercury or an unknown star, in a similar fashion God would look at the enlightened hearts only, whether or not they practise a religion.

Sachal Saanyen said, 'When one does not have God's love, Islam hardly differs from the Kufr.'

You, in search of God, rush to worship places such as Temples, Churches, and Mosques! Has anyone seen God sitting in any worship place in history? O' Fools! The dwelling of the Lord is in your heart. Domicile God in your heart; then you shall see that these worship places and its worshippers will run towards you. Bayazid stated, 'I circumambulated Ka'aba (the Muslims' sacred place of worship in Mecca) for some time. Since God inhabited me, Ka'aba began circumambulating me.' The worship places are collection points for good virtues; whereas, the heart is the Divine Abode. In worship places, you shall call upon God. In the hearts, God shall call upon you.

Not in the fate of the intellectuals is found the Taste of Passion,  
Those who sacrifice everything are the Bearers of Ishq (Rapturous Lovers).

And one cannot find God by repeating God's name.  
One must seek a Spiritual Guide, for only they can take one to God.

Every religion strongly believes that their Prophet is the most eminent and glorified. And this belief caused wars between them. Through spiritual sciences, you should first gain access to the gatherings of the Prophets, for only then you will learn which Prophet possesses what spiritual status and rank.

Important Note  
God called every Prophet with a unique name which served as their respective Kalima and means of recognition for the Following of the Prophets. These names were in His own language (Suryani). By declaring the respective Kalima, one gets admitted into the following of the Prophet. Declaring thrice is the condition. After his admittance into the following of the Prophet, the more frequently one repeats these words, the more purified he gets. The chanting of these words at the time of adversity becomes a rescue. In the grave also, these words happen to soften the accountability. Even for entry into the paradise, repetition of these words is the condition.

Followings of all Prophets are advised to memorise these words, and recite them at dawn and at dusk as much as they can. You may read the celestial books in your own language for the purpose of guidance. However, for worship, the original text of the original book renders more spiritual benefits.

#  Declarations of the Mursaleen (the Grand Prophets)

The Christian Motto:  
'La Ilaha Ill Allah Isa Rouh-Allah.' None other is Deity (Ilah) for except Allah (God)-Jesus is Spirit of God.

The Jewish Motto:  
'La Ilaha Ill Allah Musa Kalim-Allah.' None other is Deity for except Allah- Moses talks to Allah.

The Abrahamic Motto:  
'La Ilaha Ill Allah Ibrahim Khalil-Allah.' None other is Deity for except Allah-Abraham is Friend of Allah.

The Muslim Motto:  
'La Ilaha Ill Allah Mohammad Rasul-Allah.' None other is Deity for except Allah-Mohammad is the Messenger of Allah.

The Hindu and Sikh religions are linked with the religions of Adam and Noah. Since Adam revered the Holy Black Stone, they adopted the ritual of worshipping idols. Those who survived from the great hurricane of Noah propagated in India. Indian Gurus obtained spiritual knowledge and spiritual grace from Khidr also. The names such as of Adam (Shankar Jee) and Khidr (Vishnu Maharaj) are found in the wordings of their prayers.

Followers of all religions, regardless of the different languages they speak, should recite these Kalimas in Suryani, for they are the source of their recognition and salvation. Common folks need to remember God and their respective Messenger at least 33 times a day, in the morning and the evening. One ought to remember God 99 times to be protected from worldly problems on a daily basis, in the morning and in the evening or as much as one may be able to do. One should remember God 5,000 times to prevent calamity in advance. More than one person may collectively remember God ranging from 25,000 to 72,000 times, and the maximum figure is 125,000 times in one sitting.

In order to purify the heart and to efface the black spots of sins (according to a Prophetic Tradition, 'An angel is appointed to every human being to place black spots on their hearts as a result of committing sins'), do a breathing exercise. Inhale 'La Ilaha Ill Allah', and exhale the second part of the Kalima; concentrate on the heart while exhaling. In acquiring love and the proximity of God, there is yet another method, which is difficult without God's Will. According to the method mentioned here, one has to turn the heartbeats into a constant rosary, and synchronise just the word 'Allah' alone in the beating system. Do this exercise daily as much as you can also. Dhikr (invocation) can start in some people without them having to concentrate on it, while others have to concentrate, and yet some others after the revival of Qalb and Rouh (soul), can feel it at all times.

God's Friends invoke God's name 72,000 times a day, whereas God's lovers reach the figure of 125,000 times a day. And when other subtleties also engage in God's remembrance, even the Karaman Katibeen (the appointed angels who keep the record of good deeds) fail to count the frequency.

'Some of the seekers remain on land, and some others reach the domain of God. / Some others have spiritual access to the Ka'aba, and some others are in God's audience.'  
-Taryaaq-e-Qalb by His Divine Eminence RA Gohar Shahi

Those who practise a religion had better visualise their respective Prophet's name as well as 'Allah', to balance the heat of word 'Allah'. They should recite the Kalima of their Prophet until the state of Jalal (majestic effects), Jazb (ecstasy) and Wajd (spiritual pleasure) ends. Also visualise the Spiritual Guide you have met in person, to utilise his spiritual power to write word 'Allah' on your heart. Those who do not practise a religion may or may not have a predestined Spiritual Guide. They ought to visualise the names of all five Grand Messengers categorically, and also the Saint they believe in and have met. Then, whomever they belong to will begin to speak in them. In short, they will begin to love, be inclined and directed towards him.

Once upon a time in history, people of the celestial books were united. They were allowed to share food among each other and inter-religion marriages were allowed as well. Similarly, in the present era, people of Dhikr (Heart-Invocation) will be united. People of the celestial books were united and gathered temporarily as the book was confined to their tongue (it did not enter their hearts) only; it vanished away. People of the Heart-Invocation shall be permanent, as the Name of God and its Divine Light would enter their bloodstream and heart. It is difficult for the illness that has entered the blood, or love that has entered the blood, to come out from it.

Water does not form into electricity until it is splashed together. Milk is churned to produce butter. Similarly repetition of the original verses of Celestial Books creates Divine Light. Repetition of verses and the Names of Divine Attributes produces Sifati Noor (Divine Light of the Attributes). Its access is up to the Malaika (the archangels). This is Bil-Wasta (indirect, requires medium). This is the stage of Wahdat Al Wajoud (unity in existence). Noor (Divine Light) produced by repetition of the personal name of God 'Allah' has direct access to God and this is Bila-Wasta (direct, requires no medium). This relates to Wahdat Al Shahood (unity in witnessing).

Some people love, respect and honour their Prophet and Saints, however, they bear animosity for the Prophets and Saints of other religions. Such people are very unlikely to earn any spiritual status from God, because they talk ill of those whom God loves. It is God Himself who appointed them into different religions.

# Eye-Witness Accounts of a Few Selected Loving Souls

Story of a predestined loving soul:  
I passed through a forest in America at midnight. I saw that a man was prostrating and weeping before a tree; when I returned after an hour or so, he was still in the same state. I got closer and stopped. He felt my presence, and raised his head from the prostration. He complained to me, 'Why did you disturb me?' I said, 'I am also in search of God. I wonder how you would find God through a tree. You should find God through a religion.' He said, 'I do not know the original language of the celestial books of the Koran and the Bible, nor am I satisfied with their translation, because they contradict each other strongly. Hence, it is impossible to believe that these books were sent by the same God. According to one celestial book: God says, "Jesus is my son." And in the other book, God says, "I do not have any sons." I have wasted a great deal of my valuable time in futile study of these books. Now, I have adopted another way of finding God. For example; this tree is so beautiful, which suggests that God loves this tree. Maybe God will direct me towards Him through this tree!'

He was a predestined loving soul, who was in search for God, according to his intellect. Can such people be sent into the hell? Such people are known as helpless (Mazour) and it is such people who from a dog to Qatmir will enter the paradise. Qatmir also did not have a religion.

Miss Katherine of Arizona, USA, tells her story:  
'I received the initiation of heart-invocation from Angela. Angela informed me, "Consider that God has accepted you if your heart is activated with God's remembrance within the next seven days, otherwise, your life is a waste." I burst into tears when my heart was yet to be activated and the limit of seven days was over. I wailed in anguish the following night, and the same night, my heart became alive with God's remembrance. It has been three years since then.' Katherine does not believe in the age factor, however, she believes in holistic health. Similarly, she does not believe in religions, but in Divine Love. She asserts, 'God's remembrance has increased Divine Love in my heart, and this is enough for me.'

Meeting with a Hindu Guru:  
I was then in the mountains of Sehwan. I would often visit the tomb of Lal Shahbaz Qalandar. I saw a man sat in the yard of the tomb, flocked by many of his Hindu followers who seemed to be very respectful to him. I asked, 'Who is this holy man?' 'He is a Hindu sage,' said the men. 'He is an enlightened conscience and our prayers reach Lal Shahbaz Qalandar and are answered through him.' Many Muslims also respected him.

One day, I passed by a rock; I saw the same person prostrating and reciting something before an idol, which he had placed in front of him. We met in the tomb a couple days later. I said to him, 'I do not understand why an enlightened conscience person like yourself worships an idol.' He replied, 'I too do not take it (the Idol) as my Lord, however, I believe and it is also verified by your celestial books, that God created man in his own image. Hence, I carve and worship Idols of different shapes to arrive at the true image of God. He said, 'You too are an enlightened conscience, you tell me how God looks, and which of the Idols he resembles, so that I may bring him in my heart.'

When I (His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi) was sixteen or seventeen years of age, I was reciting a verse of Surah Muzammil (the Koran) at the shrine of my ancestral Saint 'Gohar Ali Shah'. When suddenly, a tall man in the guise of a fakir appeared before me, and said whilst chewing hard gram, 'You are wasting your time.' He had a saintly face, so I remained quiet, but deep down in my heart, I thought, 'He must be a Satan, and he came to stop me from the recitation of the Koran.'

After a while, I was 35 years of age and my heart had started to engage in God's remembrance. I would recite the verse Muzammil according to the prescribed method, and then I would pause momentarily to allow my heart to recite it. One day, when I was ecstatically engaged in this exercise, the same tall fakir appeared as before, and said, 'Now you are reciting the Koran. The remedy is ineffective until the medicine enters the stomach. Nothing is obtained until the Divine Word enters the heart.'

Then he said the following stanza:

There are many who remember God by tongue, however, very few are aware of the art of God's remembrance by the heart.  
And it is the God's lovers who remember Him by their hearts, and the tonguesters are unaware of such a bounty!

When I had said the prayers (Salat) in Thatta Mosque, I saw an elderly man taking care of the worshippers' shoes. Since I was in the last row, therefore, I noticed that he did not say the prayers and only took care of the shoes. As I was leaving, I said, 'You did not say the prayers, what reward do you expect by taking care of the shoes?' He said, 'Prayers? I never said it all my life; I do not anticipate salvation through Salat in this old age now. I now live on the hope that one of these people may be God's Friends, and that my act may please God or his Friend.' I (His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi) said, 'No act supersedes the act of prayers.' The elderly man said, 'Nothing is greater than God's Friend if you have pleased him.' After three years of austerities, when I reached the gathering of Prophet Mohammad, I saw the same elderly man sitting beside the feet of the Prophet. I recalled the stanza, 'Sinners reached the Holy Court, the pious and righteous were left in the state of awe!'

#  Introduction to the Person of His Divine Eminence R.A. Gohar Shahi

His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi was born on 25th November, 1941, in a small village of the Indian Sub-Continent, 'Dhok Gohar Shah', in the District of Rawalpindi. The mother of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi is a descendent of Fatima Al Zahra, meaning the Sadat Family (Progeny of Fatima), from the grandsons of Syed Gohar Ali Shah. The father of His Divine Eminence is a descendant of one of the (maternal) grandsons of Syed Gohar Ali Shah, and his grandfather comes from the Mughal family.

His Divine Eminence developed inclination towards shrines of the Saints since His childhood. The father of His Divine Eminence says, 'At the age of 5-6 years, His Divine Eminence would disappear, and we would find Him sitting at the shrine of Nizam Uddin Auliya in New Delhi, India. Occasionally, it seemed to me that His Divine Eminence was talking to Nizam Uddin Auliya.' This incident dates back the time when the father of His Divine Eminence resided in Delhi for his job.

When His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi visited India in March 1997, the caretaker of the shrine of the Saint Nizam Uddin, upon the instructions of the soul of Nizam Uddin Auliya, placed the 'Turban of Honour' on the head of His Divine Eminence. 'Since childhood, whatever His Divine Eminence predicted came true. Hence, I would fulfil all His reasonable wishes.' The father of His Divine Eminence says, 'Gohar Shahi, as per His routine, comes out to the lawn in the house every morning, and I stand in respect to greet him.' His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi disapproves of this, and says, 'I feel shy, as I am your son. So do not stand in respect for me.' The father of His Divine Eminence says that he always explains that he stands in respect for the presence of God that dwells in His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi. Amir Hussain, a teacher from Mora Noorie Primary School recollects, 'I am famous for being a stern teacher in the area. I used to penalise the naughty kids. His Divine Eminence would sometimes reach the school late, and when I would want to punish His Divine Eminence, I would feel as if somebody had gotten hold of the stick, and I would end up smiling.'

Remarks of the family members and friends of His Divine Eminence Ra Gohar Shahi:  
'We never saw His Divine Eminence arguing, fighting or beating up anybody. If any of His friends were angry and wanted to get physical, His Divine Eminence would simply smile.'

Remarks by wife of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi:  
'Firstly, His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi is hardly ever angry, however, His Divine Eminence expresses intense reactions against immorality and indecency. His Divine Eminence is exceptionally generous. In the morning when His Divine Eminence leaves for the meeting with daily visitors in the lawn of the house, His pockets are full of money. However, when His Divine Eminence returns, the pockets are empty. His Divine Eminence gives away all the money to the needy. When I am in need of money, His Divine Eminence shows an innocent face, thus I get angry. Looking at His innocent face, I say a couplet, "Thou art so generous by heart, but parted with all the wealth."'

Remarks by sons of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi:  
'Our father (His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi) is very affectionate towards us and sees to our needs. But when we ask our father for money, He gives us but a small sum. Our father says, "You will be spending extravagantly." We say to our father, "Either you give us plenty of money or turn us into a fakir."'

Remarks by the mother of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi:  
'During His childhood, when He would not go to school for a day or two, or if He suffered a business loss later in life, I would criticise Him, but He would never raise His head in response. My Spiritual Guide, Kakka Miyan from the village of Shams, would advise me, "Do not swear at Riaz. You do not know what I see in Him." He has so much sympathy for humanity that when He would find out that a passenger bus had broken down even at a distance of 10 miles, He would get food prepared for the passengers and would take it to them riding His bicycle.'

Remarks by Mohammad Iqbal of Fazooliyan, a close friend of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi:  
Mohammad Iqbal says, 'In the rainy season, as we would walk through the fields, we would walk on the trail, and countless ants also would be crawling there. We did not care about them, but His Divine Eminence Ra Gohar Shahi would always avoid walking on the trail, lest the ants are harmed or run over. His Divine Eminence would prefer to wade in the mud instead. When a false case of murder was instigated against His Divine Eminence, Qaddous Shiekh of the crime branch (of the police department) came for inquiry. The residents of the area told him, "We don't think His Divine Eminence would have ever killed a mosquito, let alone a human being!"'

Remarks on the aunt of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi:  
I was then a student of the eighth grade. One day, my aunt who was very religious and a committed worshipper but possessed greed and jealousy also (exoteric worshippers normally possess such vices), told me everything else was fine in me for except that I did not observe ritual prayers (Salat). I said to my aunt that Salat was a gift of God, and that I did not want to send forth bukhl, takabbur, hassad, and keena (grudge) mixed with the prayer. I would observe Salat whenever I could do it correctly. Unlike her, who observed the prayer and at the same time, was involved in great sins like backbiting and slandering.

His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi recollects His childhood stories:  
Since the age of 10-12 I began to speak with God in dreams. I used to see Bait al Mamour; however, I was unaware of its reality. After I have gone through the austerities, all those scenes and conversation with God were repeated, and thus the reality was unfolded. Once my uncle, who was in the national army and who would often visit the brothel, took me with him to escape the doubts of the family, because they would not allow him. He would give me tea and biscuits, and would go inside the brothel. I was unaware of brothels and prostitutes. My uncle would tell me that these brothels are the office for the women. After some time, I began to feel disgusted with the place. My uncle said,' God has created women for this purpose only.' In other words, my uncle tried to incite me to do the same. My uncle's words disturbed me. I could not sleep all night struggling with my Nafs, and then suddenly I fell asleep.

I saw a large round elevated platform, and I was standing below. I heard a loud voice from above it, 'Bring him forth.' I noticed that two men held my uncle, and brought him forward; they pointed towards him, indicating that he was the one. The voice was heard again, 'Beat him with the metal bars.' The men started beating him. He then screamed, roared, and eventually his face turned into that of a swine. The voice was heard again, 'If you do the same, you will suffer the same.' I then repented, sought forgiveness, after which I woke up with these words on my tongue, 'My Lord I repent, my Lord I repent.' The effects of this dream stayed with me for a few years.

The next day, I was travelling towards my village on a bus; I noticed that a few robbers were trying to pull out a cassette player from a taxi. When the driver resisted, they killed him with knives. Our bus stopped at the scene. The robbers escaped when they saw us. The driver died in agony before our eyes. The truth that life is so uncertain crossed my mind. At night as I was about to sleep, the following verse began echoing in my mind. 'Forgive all my errors, I have come and fallen at your Holy Court.' I cried all night long. Sometime after this event, I renounced the world, and went to the Tomb of the Saint Jaam Dataar. But I didn't find my destiny there either. My brother-in-law brought me back to the world.

At the age of 34, Bari Imam appeared before me. He said, 'Your time has come to return to the jungle.' After three years seclusion and retreat, when I had obtained some spiritual experience, I went to the tomb of Jaam Dataar. He appeared before me. I said, 'If I had been accepted earlier, I would have avoided a carnal lifestyle.' He replied, 'The time was not appropriate then.'

# Some selected features of His Divine Eminence Ra Gohar Shahi's esoteric personality

God deployed one of His sub-spirits (Jussa-e-Tawfeeq-e-Ilahi) with His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi at the age of 19, which stayed with His Divine Eminence for a year. Under the influence of which, His Divine Eminence tore away his clothes, and went into the jungle of Jam Dataar with a piece of cloth wrapped around his body. The presence of the sub-spirit of God with His Divine Eminence was but temporary yet, and it would be absent for the following 14 years. In the year 1975, the same divine sub-spirit was the reason for His Divine Eminence's retreat in the jungle of Sehwan.

At the age of 25, Jussa-e-Gohar Shahi (the sub-spirit of Gohar Shahi) was coroneted as the Commander of the Esoteric Cavalry. Thanks to this, His Divine Eminence has been protected against the mischief of terrestrial Satans and the forces of evil. Jussa-e-Tawfeeq-e-Ilahi (God's sub-spirit) and Tifl-e-Noorie (body of God's Light) are some supreme divine entities, and are superior to all souls, archangels and esoteric human faculties. And like the archangels, they are directly linked with God. Their maqam (station) is the Alam-e-Ahdiyat (the Realm of Divine Oneness).

At the age of 35, on the 15th of Ramadan, 1976, a sperm of Light (Nutfa-e-Noor) was placed in the heart (subtlety of Qalb) of His Divine Eminence. After some time, the Tifl-e-Noorie (body of God's Light) was taken to various places for spiritual learning. On the 15th of Ramadan, 1985, when His Divine Eminence had already been assigned to the worldly duty in Hyderabad (Pakistan), the same sperm of Light, having grown up into a Tifl-e-Noorie, was delivered permanently. Through this Tifl-e-Noorie, His Divine Eminence was coroneted in the court of Mohammad, as Sultan (King of Spiritual Poverty Faqr). Tifl-e-Noorie is granted the rank after 12 years; however, it was awarded to His Divine Eminence in 9 years only because of His assignment in the world.

# What is Jashan-e-Shahi and the Reasons Why it is Celebrated?

On the 15th of Ramadan 1977, a series of unique secretive conversations (Ilhaamat or inspiration) with God also began. The promise of 'Radhiya Mardhiya' ('Your will is my will, my will is your will') took place and rank was also granted. Since every rank (martaba) and ascension (meraaj) is related to the 15th of Ramadan, this is why in order to express feelings of happiness and thanksgiving, Jashan-e-Shahi is celebrated every year.

In the year 1978, His Divine Eminence moved to Hyderabad, Sindh, and began to shower the grace of divine guidance on mankind, and in a short span of time, His spiritual grace spread throughout the world. The hearts of millions of people were revived with God's remembrance. God's name, 'Allah' was imprinted on the hearts of millions of people, and they witnessed it on their hearts. Hundreds of thousands of people acquired access to Kashf Al Qaboor (the ability to speak to the subtlety of Nafs of the departed Saints) and Kashf Al Hudhoor (access to the court of Mohammad). His Divine Eminence has cured millions of people with terminal diseases. After having received the teachings and guidance from His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi, the people from every religion, every nationality, and every race acquired the love of God, and began to reach the Essence of God.

'By God! I too am from those people, on whose hearts the name 'Allah' is so beautifully written and shining.'-Sheikh Nizam-Uddin, Maryland, U.S.A.

#  Exhaustive explanation about the images on the Sun and the Moon

His Divine Eminence's fame reached all four corners of the globe on account of His spiritual sciences, and widespread lectures across the nations.

In the year 1994, in Manchester, some individuals pointed out the image of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi on the Moon. Similar eye witness accounts were reported from Pakistan and various other countries also. Live images of the Moon were recorded by video camera. Images of the Moon were obtained from NASA and foreign countries. The images were dull in the beginning, however, within two years, the images became so vivid and clear that binoculars and computers were not needed to spot them.

In 1996 our correspondent Zafar Hussain pointed out the existence of these images to the NASA. They replied, 'We are aware of the existence of a facial image on the Moon, and this is the face of Jesus Christ, which is a formation of light 200 miles long.' American citizens also insisted that NASA give some explanations regarding this picture. But, for the reason of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi being Asian, NASA maintained silence.

In his book 'Pictorial Astronomy', Prof. Dinsmore Alter, a professor in NASA and an expert in astronomy, made changes in the picture and presented it in the form of a woman. It spread a rumour in the entire Christian missionary that a picture of Lady Mary exists on the Moon.

When the news was published in Pakistani newspapers, many people verified the existence of the picture on the Moon after they investigated the matter thoroughly. Some made a mockery of this matter without carrying out any investigation. Some regarded it to be an act of sorcery. After some time, there was talk of the existence of the picture in space. However, it did not manage to earn the attention of common folks, for except the following of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi.

In 1998, the 'Parcham', a daily newspaper, published a news item that a human face is visible in the Holy Black Stone. We were already aware of it. We possessed some marked up pictures of the Holy Black Stone and almost every follower of His Divine Eminence also had investigated the matter thoroughly. We remained silent to avoid potential uproar and mischief. The newspaper reports encouraged us, and we also issued a press release and our statement regarding the matter. Almost all Muslims investigated the matter, because the matter was closely linked with their faith. A majority of them were convinced of its truthfulness. The image was so clear that it was next to impossible to deny it. However, some people labelled it as an act of magic.

The images of the Moon and the Holy Black Stone were publicised and promulgated in almost all countries of the world. Saudi Arabia and its supporters were utterly displeased, as though His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi himself had placed his image in the Holy Black Stone! They exclaimed, 'Images are prohibited in Islam, how could an image appear on the Holy Black Stone?' They failed to acknowledge that God's signs cannot be prohibited. Saudi Arabia acquired a decree from its Sharia (religious) courts that His Divine Eminence was Wajib al Qatal (deserving of the death penalty): if His Divine Eminence sets his foot on Saudi soil, He should be assassinated. In Pakistan also, pro-Saudi sectarian elements are trying their hardest to eradicate His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi and His teachings. False charges and cases of blasphemy (Section PPC 295) against His Divine Eminence have been instigated. Assassination attempts have been made on His Divine Eminence several times.

# Now the picture of His Divine Eminence is visible on the Sun also

We have contacted the Pakistani government regarding the cases, and have invited them to examine and investigate the images; however, the government has denied these Divine Signs under the influence of the sectarian elements. Moreover, the Nawaz Sharif Government influenced the provincial government of Sindh to also trap, suppress, and eradicate His Divine Eminence. Presently, we ask the military regime to also carry out a just investigation of these images (Divine Signs), and demand that these images must not be denied under any fear, pressure or influence from sectarian elements.

These Divine Signs are meant to eradicate mischief, not the opposite. And it is evidently obvious, because His Divine Eminence's message and teachings are based on God's love and global peace, which have attracted people of all religions to reform and purify themselves.

And today, all the Hindus, the Muslims, the Sikhs and the Christians are becoming united because of their mutual love and respect for His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi. This is the first time in history that a Spiritual Leader has been invited and respectfully seated on the pulpit of worship places of all the major religions such as Churches, Gurdwaras and Hindu Temples for lectures and sermons.

Such a person (His Divine Eminence), who is divinely anointed and the pride of the country, should be encouraged. God manifests His signs to elaborate the truthfulness of His Divine Eminence. And the alchemy of His Divine Eminence's eyes revives hearts of humankind with God's remembrance, and turns them into God's lovers.

Theologians and groups that are enemies of the Saints and the household of Prophet Mohammad are very entrenched against His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi. They are trying to divert the attention of the public from Hajar al Aswad (Holy Black Stone) by their instigation of bogus cases, baseless plots and negative propaganda against His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi. This is a very important and sensitive matter. The faith of the Muslims is in jeopardy. Why is the investigation in this matter not taken up? There has been so much propaganda in the world, both negative and positive, regarding the Holy Black Stone that it has become impossible to suppress it.

Even the scholars, who believe in the Saints, have taken dumb due to their grudge and jealousy towards Gohar Shahi. Since the image is so clear and they cannot deny it, now they say that the Moon is under the effect of magic. Remember well: Prophet Mohammad said, 'Any act of magic is ineffective on and to the Moon.'

They allege that even the Holy Black Stone is under the effect of magic. Food for thought: If the Ka'aba also is under the effect of magic, then the Muslims are left with hardly any place for sanctuary and protection of faith! They say, 'Even Prophet Mohammad once was affected by magic, and the Ka'aba is not greater than Prophet Mohammad!'

Verily! Magic was cast on Prophet Mohammad, however, God sent the verse of Wannas to nullify the effects of the magic. You also are advised to recite the verse of Wannas to nullify the effects of magic, if any, on the Moon, and the Holy Black Stone. In case, the verse Wannas further brighten up the images instead of nullifying them, then you will have to admit the truth, otherwise, you are possessed by Abu Jahal (the father of ignorance).

#  Sayings of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi

Terrestrial spirits of humankind take several births in various bodies. Terrestrial spirits of purified individuals take births in pure individuals only. And terrestrial spirits of Prophet Mohammad were preserved for Imam Mehdi only. Just as any separate part of his body, viz, hands or feet, can be regarded and called the jewel of Aminah (the Prophet's mother). Similarly, the separate part of the celestial soul of Mohammad can be regarded and called the son of Aminah and son of Abd Allah. The Spirits of the Prophet's household (in the other bodies after rebirth) are also included in the Prophet's household.

### Miraculous Images of His Divine Eminence RA Gohar Shahi

In the 1991 Summer-Fall edition of the Phoenix Official Visitor's Guide, the image of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi on the Moon is clearly visible. Image courtesy of: Boot Traverse, Photographer. On the bottom right: a close up of the image on the Moon as seen in the Visitor's Guide. It has been blurred so that the face of His Divine Eminence is further prominent.

According to this letter from the photographer, '...The enlargement of the moon, which I photographed over downtown Phoenix in February 1990, does have the likeness of a man in profile when viewed rotated 90 degrees.'

God said, 'We will show you our signs in the near future, in the universe and within your selves until you believe this is the truth.'

When people in the United States of America learned about the image of the Moon and that it was of a person of Asian origin who facially looked like Muslim, thereafter, the image was altered. The first photograph above (1) is an original photograph of the Moon. The third image (3) has been taken from Pictorial Astronomy by Alter et al., which has been modified. A part of the face and beard have been distorted in order to show hair of a woman's head rather than the beard of a man. The deleted face is that a man who is clean-shaven. Artistically the chin has been reduced, the neck streamlined, and the eyes elongated.

The second image (2) is a sketch portraying a woman Alter et al. attempt to introduce, so that people may be led to believe it is of the Virgin Mary.

Distortion of the signs of God is not a good omen, as these images will soon become apparent to the whole world.

A scan taken from Moonwatching Magazine clearly depicts the image of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi on the Moon. For except the neon marks indicating where the face of His Divine Eminence is, the scan is unaltered.

The Moon present in this Cigar 555 ad also bears the image of His Divine Eminence.

Whether you are in the east or the west, try taking a photograph of the Moon with your personal camera, from any angle, and you will see these images.

This article discusses the findings of NASA in relation to a face in space estimated by NASA scientists to be the size of 150 suns. The article talks about how strange it is that the face in space had never been discovered before, given its size.

According to Astronomer Isaac Hawkins of Atlanta, GA, 'This is plainly the image of a man's face far, far off in the universe.' The article explains how this miraculous image was clearly distinguishable one moment and then astonished observers by somehow retreating from view the next moment. The article speculates that the image is something on a '[technologically] advanced level.' This discovery was also the first due to which NASA consulted with theologians, as 'The idea that this could be the face of God [had] crossed [their] minds.'

This image of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi is in fact a spiritual entity known as Tifl-e-Noori. Only special Saints have been known to possess this. References are found in various books by Sufis.

According to this article, Sheikh Hammad bin Abdallah stated in relation to the appearance of a human face in the Holy Black Stone, 'Spiritualists in Mecca say that this is the face of the awaited Imam Mehdi.' Source: 'A Human Face Discovered on the Holy Black Stone in Mecca, Saudi Arabia,' by Staff Reporter, the Daily Parcham (Karachi, Pakistan), May 26, 1998.

Above: a clipping of the monthly Great God Magazine's article about the image on the Holy Black Stone. The article speculates whether the face is of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi, and shows a comparison between and image of His Divine Eminence and an image of the Holy Black Stone which has been digitally contrasted to allow easier viewing of the face in it.

According to this report, 'It is said amongst spiritual circles that in addition to his facial image becoming prominent on the Sun and Moon, the face on the Holy Black Stone is that of Riaz Ahmed Gohar Shahi of Pakistan.'

The image is so clear that no one can deny its existence. Many are saying that the image is the face of the awaited Imam Mehdi AS.

An excerpt from this newspaper article: 'According to a facsimile received from Saudi Arabia, Sheikh Hammad bin Abdallah has issued a press release from Mecca. It states that prior to the pilgrimage, clear signs of a human image were visible on the Holy Black Stone. The image is inverted; for this reason is not visible at first sight. But it can be clearly seen once it has been pointed out. Sheikh Hammad bin Abdllah has said that there could be two reasons for this image; either it has appeared naturally or perhaps it is manmade. As the Black Stone is heavily guarded by officials and given that there are masses of pilgrims around it at all times, it is unlikely that any person would be courageous enough to make and place an image on the Black Stone. The question arises: if the image has always been on the Black Stone, then why has no one noticed it? The image is so clear it cannot be denied or rejected.'

Many people say, 'These images are simply imagination.' Imagination is confined to one who imagines; imagination cannot be captured on camera. Others declare it to be telepathy or mesmerism. However, places of worship, the land and the sky cannot be subject to telepathy or magic; if this is the case then where is the truth? Some others say that the United States has received money to digitally place the images in these celestial bodies. Is Gohar Shahi wealthier than the USA? If it were possible to place these images, then the United States would have used the image of the Pope as to benefit its religion and country.

This image was taken on the Viking mission (NASA) in 1976. The image bears two faces; it is rotated at 180 degrees to better display this.

Carlotto, who used digital processing to enhance and sharpen the image, due to which the 'Face on Mars' has become even more apparent. Source of image: The Martian Enigmas: A Closer Look, By Mark J.

-The BBC broadcasted this news on GMR Radio (UK) in October 1997.

People ask, 'Why do you publicise these images?'

We reply, 'These images are signs from God. They have purpose and indicate to the seekers of the truth that they may approach God through this man who is God's existing representative.' It is the signal for both the sinners and those who do not believe in any religion, that they too should adopt the way of guidance and find salvation through the Divine Knowledge that God has bestowed upon him. God has made this knowledge simple and easy in accordance with your nature.

Science and Technology

'In 1998, the Mars Global Surveyor took pictures of Mars. On the surface of Mars, there was a rock found which resembled the face of a human being. It was one mile long and 2000 feet high. It was made by beings that were similar to us and had lived there in the past. An astrologist, Dr Frania, says, "This is the proof of the one we have been awaiting for a long time."'-A translated excerpt in regards to the Face on Mars from Science and Technology, the Jang Sunday Magazine, (Pakistan), published on March 18, 2001.

An Insight into the Manifestation of Human Images in the Moon, Mars, and various other planets

Jesus Christ is symbolic to Divinity, a Towering Personality, and enjoys a close relationship with God, hence, he needs no formal introduction at all. His fame stands out. Images of Jesus Christ have appeared on many planets and locations. Many individuals of the present era are fortunate enough to have met Jesus Christ in person.

His Divine Eminence Ra Gohar Shahi is also present on earth. His Divine Eminence is always on the move, and does not stay in one specific home. The images of His Divine Eminence are prominent on various planets including Mars. His Divine Eminence has penned some remarkable books on spirituality, which are available at www.goharshahi.com. His Divine Eminence Ra Gohar Shahi comes from Pakistan, and advocates spiritual sciences and Sufism.

His Divine Eminence Ra Gohar Shahi says, 'I am neither a prophet nor an apostle; nevertheless, I have the full support of Mohammad (The Founder of Islam), Jesus Christ (The Founder of Christianity) and many other Prophets.'

A non-religious individual who possesses God's love in his heart is better than a religious one who doesn't love God.

The Muslim clerics ask His Divine Eminence to say that the Muslims are the best among all.

On contrary to this; His Divine Eminence says, 'The best among all is one who possesses God's love, no matter what religion he belongs to.'

The Muslim clerics say, 'The right of entry to the paradise is subject to declaration of the Muslim faith.'

His Divine Eminence says, 'The souls are to enter the paradise, whereas the bodies will be left in this world. The enlightened souls will affirm the declaration of faith upon its entry to the paradise. Every soul will be required to affirm the declaration of faith of its respective Prophet and religion. And the Muslim declaration of faith is confined to the Muslims only.'

One Muslim fraction says, 'Spirituality (knowledge that deals in purification and enlightenment of the heart) and Sufism is all unholy.'

On contrary to this, His Divine Eminence says, 'Without the purification of the heart, all worship is unholy, insincere and a total waste.'

According to the Muslim faith: a soul takes one birth only.

According to His Divine Eminence RA Gohar Shahi's book, 'The Religion of God', only the celestial soul takes a single birth in this world, whereas the terrestrial souls may take several births in different bodies. Because of such beliefs of His Divine Eminence, many Muslims have turned hostile towards His Divine Eminence. It is because of such beliefs of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi that the Pakistani Government has banned His book, 'The Religion of God' in Pakistan. Bombs were thrown at Him on several occasions. Many Muslim organisations have announced rewards on his head. The Pakistan Government has trapped His Divine Eminence in false cases of blasphemy against Islam.

His Divine Eminence Ra Gohar Shahi does not propagate any religion but advocates Divine Love, and renders practical teachings that of bringing God and his love in the heart. His Divine Eminence says, 'God himself will guide you once you are connected with God.' Many of the disciples of His Divine Eminence can see God's name written on their hearts while they meditate. His Divine Eminence says, 'God's name in any language is worthy of respect, and spiritual grace can be obtained from its practice.' People of all religions love Him. His Divine Eminence has delivered lectures on spirituality in mosques, Hindu temples, Sikh temples, and Churches in the UK, the USA, Europe, Africa, Middle East and Asia. Through His spiritual power, His Divine Eminence has healed numerous people who suffered from incurable ailments.

Dare not reject the Divine Signs on account of any religious, racial or national bias or prejudice.

Beware! God has anointed His Divine Eminence to reform, unify and connect Humanity with God. Look for Him, and personally research in His doctrine and personality.

Images featured in the article 'An insight into the manifestation of Human Images on the Moon, Mars and various other planets' are from The Martian Enigmas: A Closer Look, By Mark J. Carlotto (1992).

People often inquire as to whether these images are the truth. If this is not the truth, then we are big liars (curse be upon liars).

Disturbing Controversies:

The Cydonia Region of Mars Dr Michael Brown's website further discusses the human images on Mars (Posted January 1, 1998): http://creation-science-prophecy.com/links.htm

After politicians used their influence, NASA at last acknowledges the existence of human images on Mars. There are images on various other planets which NASA has yet concealed. NASA is still reluctant to verify the identity of whom the images resemble.

In an August 8 2001 letter to Mr Sunny Peter of the UK, NASA stated, 'On July 25, 1976, as NASA's Viking 1 spacecraft was circling the planet Mars photographing the surface for possible landing sites for its sister ship Viking 2, the spacecraft took a picture of a feature in the Cydonia region of the planet that resembled the shadowy likeness of a human face.'

A headline from a Pakistani Newspaper about His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi.

His Divine Eminence R.A. Gohar Shahi:

'I appeal to the Pakistani Government and its officials to carry out a thorough investigation into the existence of my images on the Moon and Hajar al Aswad (Holy Black Stone). If these images prove to be truthful, the government should support me so that the teachings of Divine Love are propagated throughout the world and so that people choose the correct direction for them.'

'Should the above given details be proved wrong, the government deserves the right to punish and persecute.'

Above is a clipping from an article by the Daily Mehran about an image of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi on the sacred stone in the Shiv Temple in Umar Kot (Sindh, Pakistan).

'Countless people are coming with great affection to see the images.'-The Daily Mehran (Hyderabad, Pakistan)

The popular Sindhi newspaper, the Daily Mehran, published the news of the discovery of an image of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi on the sacred stone within the Shiv Temple near Umar Kot in its June 6, 1998 edition. Hindus are gathering with great affection and interest to see the image. A pamphlet was distributed in regards to this matter and subsequently the stone became a focal point for the masses. The Hindu Community is joyful and is celebrating the appearance of the image of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi.

An advertisement introducing His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi given by the local Hindu Community in the weekly July 29, 1998 edition of the Des Perdes, published in London (UK).

This article discusses how many Hindus saw His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi healing them in their dreams. Many of the blind had their sight restored, and many of the dumb were able to speak again.

A Divine Phenomenon: On the right hand's fingers of His Divine Eminence Ra Gohar Shahi, 'Mohammad' is visible. On the left hand's fingers, 'Allah' is visible.

Important Note: Some people wonder why 'Allah' is inscribed on the left hand's fingers (they regard it as disrespectful for the name 'Allah' to appear on the left hand subject to its usage for cleaning oneself). His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi explains, 'I could be rightly accused of such an act, had I created the fingers myself or somehow managed to inscribe "Allah" on them. For the best, does only Allah know whether it is a coincidence or a miracle of Allah.'

# Return of Jesus  
Jesus meets Gohar Shahi in America

In an interview in London on 28th July 1997,  
His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi made the following statement.

On 29th May 1997, I was at the El Monte Lodge in Taos, New Mexico. During the second half of the night, I felt the presence of a man in my room. There was not enough light, so at first I thought it was one of my followers.

I asked him, 'Why have you come?' The man replied, 'I have come to meet with you.' I turned on the light. I saw a handsome young man standing before me whom I did not know. Seeing him, I felt immense energy and spiritual ecstasy in my soul and the spiritual entities, a similar spiritual ecstasy that I would experience in the gathering of 'Higher Realms'. I learnt that he could speak many languages. The young man told me, 'I am Jesus (Son of Mary); I am in America presently.' I asked him, 'Where do you live?' he replied,' I neither had a home in the past nor now.'

When His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi was requested for further details of the meeting, His Divine Eminence replied, 'What Jesus and I have discussed is a secret but I shall reveal it at an appropriate time in the future.' His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi states, 'A few days later, I visited Tucson (Arizona), where somebody showed me a photograph and said, "It was Jesus." I instantly recognised the man in the photograph, as he was the same man who appeared in my room at the El Monte Lodge. I asked the owner of the photograph about its origin. He told me, "Some people took photographs of some sacred places, and surprisingly, this photograph [of Jesus] emerged from amongst the prints, when the film was processed. This man was neither seen nor photographed." I took the photograph of this young man (Jesus) and tried to match it with one of the many images present on the Moon. I realised that the image on the photograph matched one of the images on the Moon. I confirm and verify that this is the true Image of Jesus.'

A magazine in America recently published an article quoting Bible experts regarding the 'Return of Jesus' and events leading up to the end of the world. Much of the information published, in particular secret Bible Prophecies released by the Vatican in Rome, and the opinions of experts, coincide with this statement made by His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi.

#  The excerpts from the book for quick awareness

1. Those that love God but do not practise a religion are better than you if you follow a religion and yet are deprived of God's love.

2. Love relates to the heart. The word, 'Allah', when synchronised within heartbeats, reaches all veins and arteries through the blood, and revives the souls. Then the souls, engulfed by God's name, 'Allah', enter God's love.

3. All names given to God in all languages are worthy of respect. However, God's original name is 'Allah', which is a word from the Suryani language. The creatures of empyrean speak this language. The angels call upon God with the name of 'Allah'. 'Allah' is attached with the faith declaration motto of every Prophet.

4. Any person who, with all the sincerity of heart, is in search for God, on land or in the sea, is worthy of respect.

5. Many Adams were sent in different regions of the world simultaneously. All Adams were moulded from the clay in this world, for except the last Adam who was moulded from the clay in paradise and is buried in the Arab region. The angels did not prostrate to any other Adam for except Adam Safi Allah. And Iblis (the Devil) developed enmity for the progeny of Adam Safi Allah only.

6. There are seven different sub-spirits in the human skeleton, and each relates to a different realm, a different paradise, and different functions in the human body. If these sub-spirits are empowered with God's Light (Noor), they may appear in human form in many places simultaneously. They may reach the esoteric gatherings of the Saints and the Prophets, speak with God, and even see God in person also.

7. There are two different types of religions for all humans: the religion for the body, which expires when the body does, and the other is the religion for the soul which existed even in the primordial time-that is God's love. And only this religion elevates humans.

8. Ishq (Rapturous Love) of Allah is above all other religions and seeing of Allah is above all forms of worship.

9. Information on how human beings, animals, plants, and stones were brought into existence, and why something is prohibited or permissible.

10. Who pre-existed the Amr Kun (the Command 'Be') of the souls and the angels? Which dog will enter the paradise in form of Qatmir? The souls of which individuals had already affirmed the declaration of faith in the primordial time?

The secret of which man is not mentioned in this book?
