Copy of the "Author's Song" - from the book, "Maya Veeram", by M. R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him 12. Closing Comments - becoming the "Justice of Conscience" 13. The Justice of Conscience - is becoming the understanding of the Triple Flame of God within us, that allows God and True Man within us, to finish what They have started within us 14. The 4 Kinds of "Justice" Within Man - is in truth the 4 spiritual steps on the path of God: of Shari'at, Tariqat, Haqiqat, and Marifat, and the 4 religions of man: of Hinduism, of Fire Worship, of Christianity, and of Islam and Judaism, and the 4 parts of man's body: below the waist, the stomach, the chest, and the head of man, as well as the 4 elements that emerge from within the earth: water, fire, air, and ether, to form the "pond" of Manu-eesan or True Man, and the 5 times of prayer given to Muhammad (Sal.) by God, as well as, the 4 parts of the name of His Holiness, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him). In truth, these and many other Spiritual Concepts are all pointing to the same thing, to the 4 kinds of "Justice" within man, which we must realize, understand, accept, and join, if we are to be truly successful in our life, before we die, and before our "outside" is prematurely destroyed 14-1. The Justice of God - is the justice of Allah within us, of "our Creator", of the Motionless Omnipresent One who is the Omniscient Silent One within us, and is the justice of "our Creation" as the Creation of God, as Adam (A.S.) and as man 14-2. The Justice of Kings - is the justice of the Rahman within us, of the Rabbil Alameen, of "the Ruler" of the universes within us, of the Primordial One within us, and is the justice of "our birth, sustenance, death, and judgment" as the Creation of God 14-3. The Justice of Man - is the justice of the Qutbiyyat of God within us, of the Muhaiyaddeen of God within us, of "the grace of the Dhat" within us, and is the justice of "our destruction" as the Creation of God, and is the justice of "our rebirth" as "True Man" within the Creation of God, as the "Oneness" of God and His Creation, as the Light of God within us, the Wisdom of God within us 14-4. The Justice of Conscience - is the justice of True Man within us, and is the justice of the Creation of True Man within us, which is akhirah within us, the hereafter within us, and is the justice of God appearing within the Creation of True Man within us, as the "Oneness" of True Man and His Creation, as the Light within the Light of God within us, as the Wisdom within the Wisdom of God within us 15. Closing Prayer - may God help us all Text of Spiritual Letter: 11. Copy of the "Author's Song"- from the book, "Maya Veeram", by M. R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) "May the grace of Allah's divine Messenger, And that Prophet's divine Grandson, Filled with luminous wisdom, help everyone Trusting this false world, Grow with melting love. May the lamp of their hearts Burn with bright purity. May clarity grow in their hearts. In this world of forms, May they understand good and evil clearly. Day by day in this false world, May they realize that money and wealth are external things, And that wife, children, house, and property, Will not join them in the hereafter. May those with compassion Know and see themselves truly, With clear inner hearts On judgment day. May God's grace be given To all who have been born with me, To all who are my own life. May they be protected. May all these children Receive Your grace, O Allah. With Your love Please dispel all the unbearable, Ever increasing sorrows Inherent in the actions and words Of Your slaves. O God. Ya Muhaiyaddeen, may Allah be pleased with Him, Ya Rasul, O Messenger, blessing and peace be upon Him, Ya Rabbal-'alamin, O Ruler of the universes." 12. Closing Comments - becoming the "Justice of Conscience" Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim. In the name of God, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate. Please give my love and salams to all of the brothers and sisters of the Toronto Branch of the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship. Please tell them that Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen loves them very, very much, and that they are always in my prayers. Also, please personally share this letter with each of them. It is very, very important that we all step up to do this "Heart's Work", the "Heart's Work" of sharing the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), and the life and teaching of the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), with our brothers and sisters. Only then will the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) move from our mind and desire into our inner most heart, where it will be of value to all of us. Only then will this gift of God for our age be of value to us during the Final Destruction, the Final Destruction of our "outside", either by the Prophet of God within all of us emerging from within at least one of us, making the "outside" and the "inside" for all of us into one, making akhirah or the hereafter for all of us "here" and "now", opening up an eternal life of "Oneness with" God for all of us, or by the "beast" within all of us emerging from within one of us, destroying the "outside" for all of us, destroying any chance of any of us getting it right before we die, delivering all of us to the Angel of Death, to the suffering of the grave, to Qiyamah (the Standing Forth; the Day of Judgment), opening up an eternal life of "separation from" God for all of us. The choice is ours. Also, you may want to include a copy of the "Preface to the English Edition", from the book, "Maya Veeram", by M. R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), as a part of your notice about the up coming meeting on February, 22, 2003, to set the right focus for the meeting, to set our focus on, "Understanding The Final Destruction". Also, you may want to consider making the Saturday meeting an afternoon and evening meeting, especially if we are able to gather support for it and an audience for it from the other branches. Just ask Bawa within you, and God within Him, what to do. It is really Their Show anyway. This is all this child knows to do. Finally, perhaps some of the other Branch Presidents would be interesting in coming up to the February 22nd meeting in Toronto, like Muhammad Hussein (John Barnett) from Boston, Ali Kahn (Bruce Rawlins) from New York, and David Katz from California, as well as all the other Branch Presidents, to share what is growing within their hearts, about the "Final Destruction". And to help plan for carrying the "Life and Teaching of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) for the age of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.)", to all of the branches of the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship, as well as an eventual trip this year to Sri Lanka, Baghdad, Jerusalem, Mecca, and Medina, a trip to all of these places both "inside" and "outside" of us in 2003, which is also "The Year of the Goat" for the Chinese, a year of potential disruption and difficulties, a good year to end our "outside" as separate from our "inside", a good year to make our "words" and our "actions" finally into One, a good year to start our transition from the "Justice of Man", which has become the "In-Justice of Man", to the "Justice of Conscience". 13. The Justice of Conscience - is becoming the understanding of the Triple Flame of God within us, that allows God and True Man within us, to finish what They have started within us In closing, let us share a few words about the "Justice of Conscience" and then provide a few words about the 4 kinds of Justice: the "Justice of God", the "Justice of Kings", the "Justice of Man", and the "Justice of Conscience" that Bawa teaches us. For in truth it is these 4 kinds of Justices within us that really define us, that define the world that we came from, which is awwal or the world of souls within us, and how we came to be in the world of souls. That defines the dunya or earth world within us, which are the 18,000 universes within us, as well as the dream world within the dunya, which is where we are all currently living in our mind and desire, with our brothers and sisters, in the world that we mistakenly see in our ignorance as existing "outside" of us, a world that in truth is the nourishment of the lives of darkness within us. A world that we must now leave before we die, and before our "outside" world is prematurely destroyed by the "beast" within one of us, a world that we must actively help bring to an end within us by joining with our wisdom, and with the truth of God within our wisdom, by joining with our Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, if we are ever to be successful in our life, if we are ever to again become One with the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, which in truth is God and True Man within us. And that defines akhirah within us, the hereafter within us, which is our innermost heart, the open space within us, the world of wisdom and truth within us, the world of Bawa within us, and of God within Him. This is why Bawa teaches us, "You must close down the world of hell within you, reopen the world of souls within you, and then open the kingdom of God within you." And we can only do this wisdom work within us, by understanding and supporting the transition to the "Justice of Conscience" within us, before the "Justice of Man" both "inside" and "outside" of us turns into the "In-Justice of Man", and prematurely destroys the "outside" of all of us, as the "In-Justice of Kings" almost did in the last age, before the coming of Qutb Muhaiyaddeen Abdul-Qadir al-Jilani (may God be pleased with Him) into the world, and into Baghdad, over 1000 years ago, as the Flower of God's Wisdom. In this way, saving all of us from a prematrue destruction by ushering in the age of the "Justice of Man", protecting all of us in this way for the last 1000 years, until the coming of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) and the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) into the world, in 1886 and in 1986 respectively, until the coming of the last age of man, until the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) can save all of us, from the "beast", from a prematrue destruction by ushering in the last age of man, the age of the "Justice of Conscience", by opening up akhirah within us, for all of us, before the "beast" comes out of one of us. Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. And if we don't, if the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) don't realize, understand, accept, and join with this Divine Work that has been placed within each of them by His Holiness, by our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) before it is too late, then the "In-Justice of Man" will permanently destroy our wisdom, and the truth of God within our wisdom, leaving us prey to the "beast" within all of us that is just waiting to come out of one of us, to prevent God and True Man from completing what They have started within each of us, which is to reveal True Man within the Creation of God within us, and to reveal God within the Creation of True Man within us. May God help us all. Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. In this way, we must all start the process of understanding these 4 kinds of Justice within man, especially the contrast between the "Justice of Man" and the "Justice of Conscience" that really defines the two worlds that we must all now both leave and enter, that we must all now both reject and embrace, which is the dream world of the dunya within us, that we mistakenly see as existing "outside" of us, and the hereafter world of akhirah within us, which is the true Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship. With us joining with our Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, and in this way, and only in this way, with us rejecting and leaving the dream world of the dunya within us, before our death, with us rejecting and leaving our current temporary life of "separation from" God within us, that is only leading us to the Angel of Death within us, to the suffering of the grave within us, to Qiyamah within us (the Standing Forth; the Day of Judgment), and to a false eternal life of "separation from" God within us, and with us, before our death, embracing and entering akhirah within us, which is our true eternal life of "Oneness with" God within us. Only in this way, will we be able to understand the Final Destruction within us, and "endure the cure", and find peace in our lives. May we all know this now, my dearest loving brothers and sisters, and start to act accordinly. Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. In this way, we must start the process of understanding what really defines the True Shaikh-Disciple Relationship within us, which is certainly not something that we can do alone, as "separate from" God within us, as "separate from" each other, and as "separate from" the Creation of God within us. This is someting that can only occur within us by becoming One with our Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, by becoming the Oneness of the "Three of Us", within the "Three of God" within us, by becoming the Oneness of the - Disciple, Shaikh, and God - within the Triple Flame of God within us, within - Ya Allah, Ya Rasul, Ya Muhaiyaddeen - within us. Becoming in this way, and only in this way, the understanding of the Triple Flame of God within us, which allows the "Three of God" within us to again become the "One of God" within us, completing God's intention within us, which is to reveal God to God within us, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us, which is the dunya or the 18,000 universes within us, and for the benefit of the Creation of True Man within us, which is akhirah or the hereafter within us. And in this way, and only in this way, by answering the question asked of God by God within us, in anathi or the time of darkness within us, or the time of the lack of understanding of God within us, which in truth for "us" is now, is the time of us living lives of "separation and differences" with our brothers and sisters in the world that we see in our ignorance as existing "outside" of us, by answering the question that God asked of God, "Who am I?", which is truth is our question, receiving the following answer, which in truth is our answer, 1) You are Allah. 2) There is nothing other than You. 3) Without You there is no help, because I do not exist. 4) You are with me, be inside my heart. 5) Do not be separate from me. Amen, Amen, Ya Rabil Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahman Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahim Alameen. Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. 14. The 4 Kinds of "Justice" Within Man - is in truth the 4 spiritual steps on the path of God: of Shari'at, Tariqat, Haqiqat, and Marifat, and the 4 religions of man: of Hinduism, of Fire Worship, of Christianity, and of Islam (and Judaism), and the 4 parts of man's body: below the waist, the stomach, the chest, and the head of man, as well as the 4 elements that emerge from within the earth: water, fire, air, and ether, to form the "pond" of Manu-eesan or True Man, and the 5 times of prayer given to Muhammad (Sal.) by God, as well as, the 4 parts of the name of His Holiness, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him). For, in truth, these and many other Spiritual Concepts are all pointing to the same thing, to the 4 kinds of "Justice" within man, which we must realize, understand, accept, and join, if we are to be truly successful in our life, before we die, and before our "outside" is prematurely destroyed 14-1. The Justice of God - is the justice of Allah within us, of our Creator, of the Motionless Omnipresent One who is the Omniscient Silent One within us, and is the justice of our Creation, as the Creation of God, as Adam (A.S.), and as man The "Justice of God" on the "inside" of us is "Ya Allah" in the Triple Flame of God within us, in - Ya Allah, Ya Rasul, Ya Muhaiyaddeen within us - and is "Alif" in the Three Letters of God within man, in the Three Letters of - Alif, Lam, Mim - within us. Also, in this way, the "Justice of God" on the "inside" of us is the "Bismillah" in the "Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim" within us, is the Creator, in the Three Duties of God within us, in the Three Duties of Creation, of Sustaining, and Destroying, within us. And in this way, the "Justice of God" on the "outside" of us is our Creation in the Three Duties of God on the "outside" of us, in the Three Duties of Creation, of Ruling, and of Sustaining, and as such, is the Creation of the Creation of God within us, and the Creation of Adam (A.S.) within us, from within the Creation of God within us, and the Creation of man within us, the Creation of the 28 letters of man within us, from within the Creation of Adam (A.S.) within us. 14-2. The Justice of Kings - is the justice of the Rahman within us, of the Rabbil Alameen, of the Ruler of the universes, of the Primordial One within us, and is the justice of our birth, sustenance, death, and judgment as the Creation of God In a similar way, The "Justice of Kings" on the "inside" of us is "Ya Rasul" in the Triple Flame of God within us, in - Ya Allah, Ya Rasul, Ya Muhaiyaddeen within us - and is "Lam" in the Three Letters of God within man, in the Three Letters of - Alif, Lam, Mim - within us. Also, in this way, the "Justice of Kings" on the "inside" of us is the "Rahman" in the "Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim" within us, is the Ruler within us, the Ruler over all of the universes within us, in the Three Duties of God, in the Three Duties of Creation, of Ruling, and of Sustaining within us, is the Rabbil Alameen, the Primal One within us. And the "Justice of Kings" on the "outside" of us is our Sustenance, in the Three Duties of God, in the Three Duties of Creation, of Sustenance, and Destruction "outside" of us, is our living in the world as the Creation of God, and is the 124,000 Prophets of God that have been repeatedly given to man by God over the last 200 million years, from within Eve (A.S.) within Adam (A.S.) within us, to awaken us to "who we truly are", to "where we truly are", and to "what is truly happening" in our life, before we die, and before, if we are still one with the Creation of God within us when we die, we must then go with the Creation of God within us to Qiyamah (the Standing Forth; the Day of Judgment), and to an eternal life of "separation from" God. 14-3. The Justice of Man - is the justice of the Qutbiyyat of God within us, of the Muhaiyaddeen of God, of the grace of the Dhat within us, and is the justice of our destruction as the Creation of God, and is the justice of our rebirth as True Man within the Creation of God, as the Oneness of God and His Creation, as the Light of God within us, the Wisdom of God within us And in a similar way, The "Justice of Man" on the "inside" of us is "Ya Muhaiyaddeen" in the Triple Flame of God within us, in - Ya Allah, Ya Rasul, Ya Muhaiyaddeen within us - and is "Mim" in the Three Letters of God within man, in the Three Letters of - Alif, Lam, Mim - within us. Also, in this way, the "Justice of Man" on the "inside" of us is the "Rahim" in the "Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim" within us, is the Sustenance within us, the Sustenance of our soul within us, in the Three Duties of God, in the Three Duties of Creation, of Ruling, and of Sustaining within us, is the journey of the following 9 manifestations of Muhammad (Sal.) within us, of the dhat of Allah, the essence of God within us, which is the path of God within us, personally and every so lovingly placed within each of us by God even before we came to this earth world, to the dunya, 1) Anathi Muhammad 2) Aathi Muhammad 3) Awwal Muhammad 4) Hayah Muhammad 5) An'um Muhammad 6) Ahmad Muhammad 7) Muhammad 8) Nur Muhammad 9) Allah Muhammad And with 6 of these manifestations of God's grace, wisdom, and 'ilm, appearing within us as the Inner Qur'an, as the Umm al-Qur'an, as beautifully explained to us by Bawa, on page 133, in Chapter 12, "The Inner Qur'an", in the beautiful book by His Holiness, "Islam And World Peace: Explanations of a Sufi", "The Qur'an appeared as the beginning, the emergence of creation (Awwal Muhammad), as the eternal life, the emergence of the soul (Hayah Muhammad), as the food, the nourishment for all creations (An 'um Muhammad), as the innermost heart (Ahmad), as the beauty of the face which is a reflection of the beauty of the heart (Muhammad), and as the plenitude, the light which became completeness within Allah and then emerged (Nur Muhammad)." Also, in this way, the "Justice of Man" on the "outside" of us is the "Destruction" of us, in the "Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim" within us, and in this way, the "Justice of Man" on the "outside" of us is our destruction and rebirth, is our transformation from the Creation of God into True Man within the Creation of God within us, is our Destruction in the Three Duties of God, in the Three Duties of Creation, of Sustenance, and Destruction on the "outside" of us. Is the destruction of our life of "separation and differences" within us, through the grace, the wisdom, and the 'ilm or divine knowledge of God, through the True Shaikh-Disciple Relationship, and through the 124,000 Prophets of God within us, which will become the Crown of Adam (A.S.) in the first heaven within us, if we are successful In our life, if the wisdom surrounding our soul awakens to the gift of God for our age, to the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) both "inside" and "outside" of us, and wins over the "enemy of our soul", which is "us" in the state of "separation from" God, allowing our "wisdom to reasons over our fate", allowing us to become One with our wisdom, and with the truth of God within our wisdom, allowing us to win over our life of "separation and differences", that God has personally and ever so lovingly placed within us, as one of the two gifts of God in our life, the gifts of His darkness and His light, so we can freely decide to be "One with" Him, rather than "separate from" Him. Allowing us to win over our current life of illusion, our dream life, which is secretly being lived by us as one with the Creation of God within us, as one with all of the lives of darkness that have grown within us, and that are now hidden from us within us, all the while with us believing in our ignorance, in our arrogance, karma, and illusion, that "we" exist "separate from" God, "separate from" each other, and "separate from" the Creation of God within us, a life of "separation and differences" that we are living with our brothers and sisters in the world that we collectively see in our ignorance as existing "outside" of us. And in this way, allowing us, joined as One with our Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, to win over our fate, our destiny, our karma, by becoming One with our Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, making our life successful, when, through the grace, wisdom, and 'ilm or divine knowledge of God, we awaken to our true heritage, our true birth right, to the true destiny of our soul before we die, before it is too late, before our "outside" is destroyed within us. 14-4. The Justice of Conscience - is the justice of True Man within us, and is the justice of the Creation of True Man within us, which is akhirah within us, the hereafter within us, and is the justice of God appearing within the Creation of True Man within us, as the Oneness of True Man and His Creation, as the Light within the Light of God within us, as the Wisdom within the Wisdom of God within us The "Justice of Conscience" is very different from the other "Three kinds of Justices" within us, because it does not occur within the dunya within us, within the earth world within us, it occurs within akhirah within us, within the hereafter within us, it occurs when we have successfully made the transition from the dunya within us to akhirah within us, and have started to come to maturity within akhirah within us. It occurs when we have successfully died to the dream of the dunya within us and have been reborn into akhirah within us, and have started to do our duty "here" from "there", rather than "here" from "here", before we die, and before our "outside" is prematurely destroyed, for the benefit of all of the Creations of God in the dunya within us, and for the benefit of all of the Creations of True Man in akhirah within us. Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. For as Bawa teaches us, it occurs within us when we have, "Become a 16 year old youth with a downey mustache within us." This is the state that is now available to all of us, my dearest loving brothers and sisters, if we will but realize, understand, accept, and join with it, if we will but join with the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) within us, the gift of God for this age, for this age of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within us, for the Children of God for this age, which is all of us living in this age, and if we will but join with the life and teaching of the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with each of Us) within us, as the gift within the gift of God for this age, as the life and teaching of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) for the age of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within us, as the last gift from God before the Final Destruction. This is why Bawa told us, "My Children are beyond the four religions. They have been born as the Deen within the Deen, as the understanding of the Deen, that will allow Muhammad to appear within the Deen, and allow Muhammad to appear within Muhammad, as the understanding of Muhammad, allowing the "Three of God", the Triple Flame of God, to again become One with the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us." "Allowing God and True Man within us to complete what They have started within us, which is to reveal God within God within us, which is to answer the question asked of God by God within us, within anathi within us, in the time of darkness within us, in the time of the "lack of understanding" within us, which is our current life in the dream of the dunya, in the world of illusion within the dunya within us, to answer the question, "Who am I?." "By first revealing True Man within the Creation of God within us, and then revealing God within the Creation of True Man within us, revealing in this way, the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, which in truth is God and True Man within us." Amen, Amen, Ya Rabil Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahman Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahim Alameen. Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. 15. Closing Prayer - may God help us Al-salam 'alaykum wa-rahmat Allah wa-barakatuhu kulluhu. May all the peace, the beneficence, and the blessing of God be upon us all. May God help us all. Amen, Amen, Ya Rabil Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahman Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahim Alameen. Al-hamdu lillah.

Day by day in this false world, May they realize that money and wealth are external things, And that wife, children, house, and property, Will not join them in the hereafter. May those with compassion Know and see themselves truly, With clear inner hearts On judgment day. May God's grace be given To all who have been born with me, To all who are my own life. May they be protected. May all these children Receive Your grace, O Allah. With Your love Please dispel all the unbearable, Ever increasing sorrows Inherent in the actions and words Of Your slaves. O God. Ya Muhaiyaddeen, may Allah be pleased with Him, Ya Rasul, O Messenger, blessing and peace be upon Him, Ya Rabbal-'alamin, O Ruler of the universes." 12. Closing Comments - becoming the "Justice of Conscience" Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim. In the name of God, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate. Please give my love and salams to all of the brothers and sisters of the Toronto Branch of the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship. Please tell them that Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen loves them very, very much, and that they are always in my prayers. Also, please personally share this letter with each of them. It is very, very important that we all step up to do this "Heart's Work", the "Heart's Work" of sharing the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), and the life and teaching of the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.), with our brothers and sisters. Only then will the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) move from our mind and desire into our inner most heart, where it will be of value to all of us. Only then will this gift of God for our age be of value to us during the Final Destruction, the Final Destruction of our "outside", either by the Prophet of God within all of us emerging from within at least one of us, making the "outside" and the "inside" for all of us into one, making akhirah or the hereafter for all of us "here" and "now", opening up an eternal life of "Oneness with" God for all of us, or by the "beast" within all of us emerging from within one of us, destroying the "outside" for all of us, destroying any chance of any of us getting it right before we die, delivering all of us to the Angel of Death, to the suffering of the grave, to Qiyamah (the Standing Forth; the Day of Judgment), opening up an eternal life of "separation from" God for all of us. The choice is ours. Also, you may want to include a copy of the "Preface to the English Edition", from the book, "Maya Veeram", by M. R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), as a part of your notice about the up coming meeting on February, 22, 2003, to set the right focus for the meeting, to set our focus on, "Understanding The Final Destruction". Also, you may want to consider making the Saturday meeting an afternoon and evening meeting, especially if we are able to gather support for it and an audience for it from the other branches. Just ask Bawa within you, and God within Him, what to do. It is really Their Show anyway. This is all this child knows to do. Finally, perhaps some of the other Branch Presidents would be interesting in coming up to the February 22nd meeting in Toronto, like Muhammad Hussein (John Barnett) from Boston, Ali Kahn (Bruce Rawlins) from New York, and David Katz from California, as well as all the other Branch Presidents, to share what is growing within their hearts, about the "Final Destruction". And to help plan for carrying the "Life and Teaching of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) for the age of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.)", to all of the branches of the Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship, as well as an eventual trip this year to Sri Lanka, Baghdad, Jerusalem, Mecca, and Medina, a trip to all of these places both "inside" and "outside" of us in 2003, which is also "The Year of the Goat" for the Chinese, a year of potential disruption and difficulties, a good year to end our "outside" as separate from our "inside", a good year to make our "words" and our "actions" finally into One, a good year to start our transition from the "Justice of Man", which has become the "In-Justice of Man", to the "Justice of Conscience". 13. The Justice of Conscience - is becoming the understanding of the Triple Flame of God within us, that allows God and True Man within us, to finish what They have started within us In closing, let us share a few words about the "Justice of Conscience" and then provide a few words about the 4 kinds of Justice: the "Justice of God", the "Justice of Kings", the "Justice of Man", and the "Justice of Conscience" that Bawa teaches us. For in truth it is these 4 kinds of Justices within us that really define us, that define the world that we came from, which is awwal or the world of souls within us, and how we came to be in the world of souls. That defines the dunya or earth world within us, which are the 18,000 universes within us, as well as the dream world within the dunya, which is where we are all currently living in our mind and desire, with our brothers and sisters, in the world that we mistakenly see in our ignorance as existing "outside" of us, a world that in truth is the nourishment of the lives of darkness within us. A world that we must now leave before we die, and before our "outside" world is prematurely destroyed by the "beast" within one of us, a world that we must actively help bring to an end within us by joining with our wisdom, and with the truth of God within our wisdom, by joining with our Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, if we are ever to be successful in our life, if we are ever to again become One with the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, which in truth is God and True Man within us. And that defines akhirah within us, the hereafter within us, which is our innermost heart, the open space within us, the world of wisdom and truth within us, the world of Bawa within us, and of God within Him. This is why Bawa teaches us, "You must close down the world of hell within you, reopen the world of souls within you, and then open the kingdom of God within you." And we can only do this wisdom work within us, by understanding and supporting the transition to the "Justice of Conscience" within us, before the "Justice of Man" both "inside" and "outside" of us turns into the "In-Justice of Man", and prematurely destroys the "outside" of all of us, as the "In-Justice of Kings" almost did in the last age, before the coming of Qutb Muhaiyaddeen Abdul-Qadir al-Jilani (may God be pleased with Him) into the world, and into Baghdad, over 1000 years ago, as the Flower of God's Wisdom. In this way, saving all of us from a prematrue destruction by ushering in the age of the "Justice of Man", protecting all of us in this way for the last 1000 years, until the coming of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) and the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) into the world, in 1886 and in 1986 respectively, until the coming of the last age of man, until the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) can save all of us, from the "beast", from a prematrue destruction by ushering in the last age of man, the age of the "Justice of Conscience", by opening up akhirah within us, for all of us, before the "beast" comes out of one of us. Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. And if we don't, if the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) don't realize, understand, accept, and join with this Divine Work that has been placed within each of them by His Holiness, by our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) before it is too late, then the "In-Justice of Man" will permanently destroy our wisdom, and the truth of God within our wisdom, leaving us prey to the "beast" within all of us that is just waiting to come out of one of us, to prevent God and True Man from completing what They have started within each of us, which is to reveal True Man within the Creation of God within us, and to reveal God within the Creation of True Man within us. May God help us all. Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. In this way, we must all start the process of understanding these 4 kinds of Justice within man, especially the contrast between the "Justice of Man" and the "Justice of Conscience" that really defines the two worlds that we must all now both leave and enter, that we must all now both reject and embrace, which is the dream world of the dunya within us, that we mistakenly see as existing "outside" of us, and the hereafter world of akhirah within us, which is the true Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship. With us joining with our Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, and in this way, and only in this way, with us rejecting and leaving the dream world of the dunya within us, before our death, with us rejecting and leaving our current temporary life of "separation from" God within us, that is only leading us to the Angel of Death within us, to the suffering of the grave within us, to Qiyamah within us (the Standing Forth; the Day of Judgment), and to a false eternal life of "separation from" God within us, and with us, before our death, embracing and entering akhirah within us, which is our true eternal life of "Oneness with" God within us. Only in this way, will we be able to understand the Final Destruction within us, and "endure the cure", and find peace in our lives. May we all know this now, my dearest loving brothers and sisters, and start to act accordinly. Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. In this way, we must start the process of understanding what really defines the True Shaikh-Disciple Relationship within us, which is certainly not something that we can do alone, as "separate from" God within us, as "separate from" each other, and as "separate from" the Creation of God within us. This is someting that can only occur within us by becoming One with our Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, by becoming the Oneness of the "Three of Us", within the "Three of God" within us, by becoming the Oneness of the - Disciple, Shaikh, and God - within the Triple Flame of God within us, within - Ya Allah, Ya Rasul, Ya Muhaiyaddeen - within us. Becoming in this way, and only in this way, the understanding of the Triple Flame of God within us, which allows the "Three of God" within us to again become the "One of God" within us, completing God's intention within us, which is to reveal God to God within us, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us, which is the dunya or the 18,000 universes within us, and for the benefit of the Creation of True Man within us, which is akhirah or the hereafter within us. And in this way, and only in this way, by answering the question asked of God by God within us, in anathi or the time of darkness within us, or the time of the lack of understanding of God within us, which in truth for "us" is now, is the time of us living lives of "separation and differences" with our brothers and sisters in the world that we see in our ignorance as existing "outside" of us, by answering the question that God asked of God, "Who am I?", which is truth is our question, receiving the following answer, which in truth is our answer, 1) You are Allah. 2) There is nothing other than You. 3) Without You there is no help, because I do not exist. 4) You are with me, be inside my heart. 5) Do not be separate from me. Amen, Amen, Ya Rabil Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahman Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahim Alameen. Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. 14. The 4 Kinds of "Justice" Within Man - is in truth the 4 spiritual steps on the path of God: of Shari'at, Tariqat, Haqiqat, and Marifat, and the 4 religions of man: of Hinduism, of Fire Worship, of Christianity, and of Islam (and Judaism), and the 4 parts of man's body: below the waist, the stomach, the chest, and the head of man, as well as the 4 elements that emerge from within the earth: water, fire, air, and ether, to form the "pond" of Manu-eesan or True Man, and the 5 times of prayer given to Muhammad (Sal.) by God, as well as, the 4 parts of the name of His Holiness, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him). For, in truth, these and many other Spiritual Concepts are all pointing to the same thing, to the 4 kinds of "Justice" within man, which we must realize, understand, accept, and join, if we are to be truly successful in our life, before we die, and before our "outside" is prematurely destroyed 14-1. The Justice of God - is the justice of Allah within us, of our Creator, of the Motionless Omnipresent One who is the Omniscient Silent One within us, and is the justice of our Creation, as the Creation of God, as Adam (A.S.), and as man The "Justice of God" on the "inside" of us is "Ya Allah" in the Triple Flame of God within us, in - Ya Allah, Ya Rasul, Ya Muhaiyaddeen within us - and is "Alif" in the Three Letters of God within man, in the Three Letters of - Alif, Lam, Mim - within us. Also, in this way, the "Justice of God" on the "inside" of us is the "Bismillah" in the "Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim" within us, is the Creator, in the Three Duties of God within us, in the Three Duties of Creation, of Sustaining, and Destroying, within us. And in this way, the "Justice of God" on the "outside" of us is our Creation in the Three Duties of God on the "outside" of us, in the Three Duties of Creation, of Ruling, and of Sustaining, and as such, is the Creation of the Creation of God within us, and the Creation of Adam (A.S.) within us, from within the Creation of God within us, and the Creation of man within us, the Creation of the 28 letters of man within us, from within the Creation of Adam (A.S.) within us. 14-2. The Justice of Kings - is the justice of the Rahman within us, of the Rabbil Alameen, of the Ruler of the universes, of the Primordial One within us, and is the justice of our birth, sustenance, death, and judgment as the Creation of God In a similar way, The "Justice of Kings" on the "inside" of us is "Ya Rasul" in the Triple Flame of God within us, in - Ya Allah, Ya Rasul, Ya Muhaiyaddeen within us - and is "Lam" in the Three Letters of God within man, in the Three Letters of - Alif, Lam, Mim - within us. Also, in this way, the "Justice of Kings" on the "inside" of us is the "Rahman" in the "Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim" within us, is the Ruler within us, the Ruler over all of the universes within us, in the Three Duties of God, in the Three Duties of Creation, of Ruling, and of Sustaining within us, is the Rabbil Alameen, the Primal One within us. And the "Justice of Kings" on the "outside" of us is our Sustenance, in the Three Duties of God, in the Three Duties of Creation, of Sustenance, and Destruction "outside" of us, is our living in the world as the Creation of God, and is the 124,000 Prophets of God that have been repeatedly given to man by God over the last 200 million years, from within Eve (A.S.) within Adam (A.S.) within us, to awaken us to "who we truly are", to "where we truly are", and to "what is truly happening" in our life, before we die, and before, if we are still one with the Creation of God within us when we die, we must then go with the Creation of God within us to Qiyamah (the Standing Forth; the Day of Judgment), and to an eternal life of "separation from" God. 14-3. The Justice of Man - is the justice of the Qutbiyyat of God within us, of the Muhaiyaddeen of God, of the grace of the Dhat within us, and is the justice of our destruction as the Creation of God, and is the justice of our rebirth as True Man within the Creation of God, as the Oneness of God and His Creation, as the Light of God within us, the Wisdom of God within us And in a similar way, The "Justice of Man" on the "inside" of us is "Ya Muhaiyaddeen" in the Triple Flame of God within us, in - Ya Allah, Ya Rasul, Ya Muhaiyaddeen within us - and is "Mim" in the Three Letters of God within man, in the Three Letters of - Alif, Lam, Mim - within us. Also, in this way, the "Justice of Man" on the "inside" of us is the "Rahim" in the "Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim" within us, is the Sustenance within us, the Sustenance of our soul within us, in the Three Duties of God, in the Three Duties of Creation, of Ruling, and of Sustaining within us, is the journey of the following 9 manifestations of Muhammad (Sal.) within us, of the dhat of Allah, the essence of God within us, which is the path of God within us, personally and every so lovingly placed within each of us by God even before we came to this earth world, to the dunya, 1) Anathi Muhammad 2) Aathi Muhammad 3) Awwal Muhammad 4) Hayah Muhammad 5) An'um Muhammad 6) Ahmad Muhammad 7) Muhammad 8) Nur Muhammad 9) Allah Muhammad And with 6 of these manifestations of God's grace, wisdom, and 'ilm, appearing within us as the Inner Qur'an, as the Umm al-Qur'an, as beautifully explained to us by Bawa, on page 133, in Chapter 12, "The Inner Qur'an", in the beautiful book by His Holiness, "Islam And World Peace: Explanations of a Sufi", "The Qur'an appeared as the beginning, the emergence of creation (Awwal Muhammad), as the eternal life, the emergence of the soul (Hayah Muhammad), as the food, the nourishment for all creations (An 'um Muhammad), as the innermost heart (Ahmad), as the beauty of the face which is a reflection of the beauty of the heart (Muhammad), and as the plenitude, the light which became completeness within Allah and then emerged (Nur Muhammad)." Also, in this way, the "Justice of Man" on the "outside" of us is the "Destruction" of us, in the "Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim" within us, and in this way, the "Justice of Man" on the "outside" of us is our destruction and rebirth, is our transformation from the Creation of God into True Man within the Creation of God within us, is our Destruction in the Three Duties of God, in the Three Duties of Creation, of Sustenance, and Destruction on the "outside" of us. Is the destruction of our life of "separation and differences" within us, through the grace, the wisdom, and the 'ilm or divine knowledge of God, through the True Shaikh-Disciple Relationship, and through the 124,000 Prophets of God within us, which will become the Crown of Adam (A.S.) in the first heaven within us, if we are successful In our life, if the wisdom surrounding our soul awakens to the gift of God for our age, to the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) both "inside" and "outside" of us, and wins over the "enemy of our soul", which is "us" in the state of "separation from" God, allowing our "wisdom to reasons over our fate", allowing us to become One with our wisdom, and with the truth of God within our wisdom, allowing us to win over our life of "separation and differences", that God has personally and ever so lovingly placed within us, as one of the two gifts of God in our life, the gifts of His darkness and His light, so we can freely decide to be "One with" Him, rather than "separate from" Him. Allowing us to win over our current life of illusion, our dream life, which is secretly being lived by us as one with the Creation of God within us, as one with all of the lives of darkness that have grown within us, and that are now hidden from us within us, all the while with us believing in our ignorance, in our arrogance, karma, and illusion, that "we" exist "separate from" God, "separate from" each other, and "separate from" the Creation of God within us, a life of "separation and differences" that we are living with our brothers and sisters in the world that we collectively see in our ignorance as existing "outside" of us. And in this way, allowing us, joined as One with our Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, to win over our fate, our destiny, our karma, by becoming One with our Shaikh within us, and with God within Him, making our life successful, when, through the grace, wisdom, and 'ilm or divine knowledge of God, we awaken to our true heritage, our true birth right, to the true destiny of our soul before we die, before it is too late, before our "outside" is destroyed within us. 14-4. The Justice of Conscience - is the justice of True Man within us, and is the justice of the Creation of True Man within us, which is akhirah within us, the hereafter within us, and is the justice of God appearing within the Creation of True Man within us, as the Oneness of True Man and His Creation, as the Light within the Light of God within us, as the Wisdom within the Wisdom of God within us The "Justice of Conscience" is very different from the other "Three kinds of Justices" within us, because it does not occur within the dunya within us, within the earth world within us, it occurs within akhirah within us, within the hereafter within us, it occurs when we have successfully made the transition from the dunya within us to akhirah within us, and have started to come to maturity within akhirah within us. It occurs when we have successfully died to the dream of the dunya within us and have been reborn into akhirah within us, and have started to do our duty "here" from "there", rather than "here" from "here", before we die, and before our "outside" is prematurely destroyed, for the benefit of all of the Creations of God in the dunya within us, and for the benefit of all of the Creations of True Man in akhirah within us. Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. For as Bawa teaches us, it occurs within us when we have, "Become a 16 year old youth with a downey mustache within us." This is the state that is now available to all of us, my dearest loving brothers and sisters, if we will but realize, understand, accept, and join with it, if we will but join with the life and teaching of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) within us, the gift of God for this age, for this age of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within us, for the Children of God for this age, which is all of us living in this age, and if we will but join with the life and teaching of the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with each of Us) within us, as the gift within the gift of God for this age, as the life and teaching of Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) for the age of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral.) within us, as the last gift from God before the Final Destruction. This is why Bawa told us, "My Children are beyond the four religions. They have been born as the Deen within the Deen, as the understanding of the Deen, that will allow Muhammad to appear within the Deen, and allow Muhammad to appear within Muhammad, as the understanding of Muhammad, allowing the "Three of God", the Triple Flame of God, to again become One with the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us." "Allowing God and True Man within us to complete what They have started within us, which is to reveal God within God within us, which is to answer the question asked of God by God within us, within anathi within us, in the time of darkness within us, in the time of the "lack of understanding" within us, which is our current life in the dream of the dunya, in the world of illusion within the dunya within us, to answer the question, "Who am I?." "By first revealing True Man within the Creation of God within us, and then revealing God within the Creation of True Man within us, revealing in this way, the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, which in truth is God and True Man within us." Amen, Amen, Ya Rabil Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahman Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahim Alameen. Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. 15. Closing Prayer - may God help us Al-salam 'alaykum wa-rahmat Allah wa-barakatuhu kulluhu. May all the peace, the beneficence, and the blessing of God be upon us all. May God help us all. Amen, Amen, Ya Rabil Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahman Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahim Alameen. Al-hamdu lillah.
