He that hath the bride – Sunday lectures by the Master Beinsa Douno

Sunday lectures, Sofia, 17th of March 1929

 ‘’He that hath the bride is the bridegroom.’’ (John 3:29)

All scientists today follow the truth, but still, none of them is free. They say that whoever has knowledge, science, they are a cultured, free person. Is it really so? Since time immemorial there have been learned people, philosophers, but still, they were not free. You will say that in order for a person to be free, they must first put their affairs in order. The affairs of many people are in order, but they are still not free. So, freedom does not depend on this, whether the person’s affairs are in order or not. The affairs of people might be in order, they might not be in order, and the person might still not be free. So, in order for a person to be free, they must have attained the Truth, to know something. While they are young, the person idealises things, they imagine them in a way, in which things are not… Each task, which cannot bring sense to life, it is not for life. This is why the person must aim towards those tasks, which can give them a way, a method, for solving the fundamental principles of life. Many tasks will be given to the person, which they must solve in the right way.

…People today must know that everything which happens in living nature, is reasonable. Many think that the external conditions are the main factors in life. Truly, the external conditions are factors in life, but they are not the only ones and the most important ones. The person is also a factor, even though many think they cannot do anything. If it is true that the external conditions are the only factors and the main factors in life, I ask: why has the person come to earth? Why then do they not reconcile with all external conditions, without rationalising, without seeking ways and means for the betterment of these conditions? You will say that the person is a slave to conditions. Since they realise this, let them seek a way to liberate themselves. How can a person attain their freedom? – Whoever wants to attain their freedom, they must follow the Truth. For this purpose, the person must not make mistakes. If they do not make mistakes, they will be liberated from the debts which have enslaved them. Someone says: I must not create debts. – With this, the matter is not solved. It is easy to say this. It is as if the person locked themselves in some place and said that they would not create debts. Yet another person says that they sin a lot. – They sin a lot, because for centuries they have stored in themselves many unnatural desires, which are now raging in them and making them err. The person will cease to err when they realise that the unnatural desires in them are others’ capital shares, with which the person must not work. Someone fell in love and they think that they have given birth to this love. – Love does not belong to anyone.

…Therefore, each person must place their throne by the sea, to see, does the tide of the waves obey them, or not. If the tide does not obey them, they must place their throne far from the waves of the sea. This shows that the relations and possibilities of the person in life are completely different from the ones that they may imagine. The life of people today is not coincidental, and it must be known that coincidental things are reasonable, and ordinary things are unreasonable. That, which happens constantly, is human; that, which happens by chance, is reasonable – therefore, Divine. When they study Nature’s phenomenons, the scientists say of some fact, or of some phenomenon, that it is coincidental. But they must know that namely coincidental things are Divine. Just when the person thinks that there is no way out from the situation they have fallen in, they see that ‘’coincidentally’’, they are right in front of such a way out. They call a doctor to see to someone, who is ill. The doctor visits the ill person, takes their pulse and concludes that according to the rules of medicine, within 24 hours, the ill person will be finished. According to the rules of medicine, it is so, this person cannot live more than 24 hours, they will inevitably be finished, and no one is able to help them. It so happens though, according to some unexpected turn of the illness, that the ill person gets better and they become healthy. There are many such examples in life.

…People today seek something great in their life, they want to attain Love, to gain it, but doctors, as well as people of the old ways say that it is not worth it to live, that the person’s life is brief, that in 24 hours they can leave for the otherworld. In some Hindu books it is said that it is not worth it to live – this is a warped translation. It is not worth it to live only when the person deviates from the right way, from the way in which there is growth and elevation. Otherwise, life is beautiful and everyone strives towards it. Many say that life creates sufferings – this is also untrue. There may be some elements in life which create sufferings, but these elements do not present life. How is it possible that what we love creates sufferings? It is impossible that the one who loves you creates sufferings for you. It is known that Love gives birth to life. Therefore, if life created sufferings, then it would not have any foundation. The reasons for the sufferings are in the person themselves, but not in life. From the book ‘’Bhagavad Gita’’ the following sentence has been translated to English:

‘’Free from the bonds of action is that man who by means of Spiritual Knowledge hath attached himself to Wisdom and thus torn asunder the illusion of doubt – he indeed is free.”*

(Transl.note: The Master gives the quote directly in English.)

All people speak of freedom, they say that everyone must be free. A free person is the one who is not affected in their actions by the external conditions. Someone wants to do a good deed but is affected by external conditions. This person is a slave to the external conditions. They must liberate themselves from this slavery. Who is able to liberate them? – Knowledge. Through knowledge, the person is connected to Wisdom. Once they are connected to Wisdom, the person is now in a condition to break the bonds, the veil of the illusions, which make them a slave. Many people think that they can attain certain boons without Love, without Wisdom in life, as a consequence of which they expect everything just like that. – No, each one must accept in themselves the fundamental situation that without Love, life does not exist. Love gives birth to life. Besides, between Love and Wisdom there is a close connection. Therefore, until the person places Love and Wisdom as a foundation of their life, the person will always encounter contradictions.

…You say: how long are we going to learn? – If you become 120 years old, you will still learn and you will not lean on a stick. People today take one period of time of 45-50 years and when they reach that age, they say: we have grown old now, our hair has gone white, we cannot learn. – In what codex of the Holy book is it written that when a person grows old, they are no longer able to learn? – Such a thing is not written anywhere. And also, nowhere in the Holy Book is it written that the elderly, or the young, shall inherit the Kingdom of God. Therefore, in a spiritual sense, under the word ‘’child’’ is meant a person who has a flexible, mutable mind, and a Soul, filled with the striving to acquire knowledge, which they can apply in their life, in order to correct it and uplift it. In this regard people today must be as a Wellspring, which constantly gives and perceives. They must not stop the currents of their life, to form swamps. The water in them must have an external outlet, to flow out, and to flow in. This means attaining love inside and transmitting love outside. – Where and how will we employ love when we attain it? – There are many unhappy people in the world, who expect help to come to them from somewhere. Here, for example, you meet two people in love, but God does not bless them. – Why? – Because they are not using the love, which has been given to them, in the right way. They wonder what gifts to give to each other. – There is no need to give gifts to each other. They have been given a gift anyway, they have the biggest gift – Love. Gifts must be given to the poor, to the paupers. This is a Divine act. You say that God lives in all people, and with that, you do not love each other. You meet someone and you tell them that they must love you. – If you say that God lives within you, in itself, you shall love each other, because it has been said that God is Love. To demand that people love you, this is violence. – Love does not tolerate absolutely any violence whatsoever. – In Love the person is absolutely free. Therefore, as a person, deep in my Soul, I must realise Love and I must apply it myself, without any external violence. Each one must be sincere in their Love. It is not a matter of loving people, but to express your love, and each in their own specific way. As people differ from each other in their specific way of expressing love, in their specific way of development.

And this is why I say: If you come to certain relations between each other, do not divert each other from the Way which God has outlined for you, but help each other in this way. Two people can meet in one mutual Centre. What must they do? – They will stop for a while, they will speak, and they will continue on their way. Their paths cross without obstructing each other. In time they will meet at another mutual Centre: they will stop again for a moment, they will greet each other, they will talk a little, and they will continue on their Way. It is not necessary to stop for a conversation for a long time, nor to divert from their way: each one will follow precisely their way without any diversion. Evil in the world consists in this that other people from the outside want to determine the person’s way, by saying to them: You must think this way, feel this way and act this way! Who must determine the person’s way? – a person cannot determine another person’s way, because they have not given them neither their mind, nor their heart, nor their body. Then, how can they retain this privilege to determine the way of the person? If the person has obligations towards someone, it is towards the First Reason, Which has given them everything, but not towards that god of humans, in whose name all sorts of crimes are being committed. Every person has the right to believe in some god of their own, but in the end, they will be certain that there exists One God, Who has determined the fates of people and has outlined the way of their movement.

…People today want to be told something serious, with which they can fix the world.  – Have serious things not been spoken until now? Have serious, strict sermons not been held until now? What sorts of penances have been imposed on people, what sorts of prisons have existed, how many heads have been taken, but despite this, the world still has not been fixed. Why? – This is not the way in which the world can be fixed. This is not the way in which humanity can be improved. People are before big contradictions, without knowing that the reason for these contradictions are they themselves. Someone jumps, plays, raises dust around them and thinks that this dust is everywhere. They wonder who has raised this dust. – The dust is only 10 metres around them and they have created it themselves. Travellers, going through dusty areas in the desert, think in this same way. They wonder how to rid themselves of this dust. – Stop the motion and the dust will settle. Stop tinkering, stop digging in things and everything will be settled.

…In Anciency one adept fell in love with the daughter of a King. I will not say the name of the adept so as not to disturb him. When we announce the names of the spirits, we disturb them. If I say his name, I will embarrass him. So, let him listen what is spoken, what has happened to some adept, without me announcing his name. He was a poor, Godly man and he thought that if he wrote a nice letter, the daughter of the king would direct her attention towards him. He wrote his first love letter, but the daughter of the king turned him away. He turned towards God with burning prayers, for God to show him a way through which the daughter of the king might direct her attention to him, to love him. After long and lasting prayers, his master finally came to him to show him a way through which the daughter of the king would turn her attention towards him. The adept thought that his master would turn him into a handsome young man, with the riches and powers of a magus, who would be able to do as he pleases with his magic wand, and in this way to oblige the daughter of the king to fall in love with him. But his master told him: I will turn you into a beautiful precious gemstone, into a diamond, as big as a walnut, and you shall always rest on the neck of your beloved. Aside from this, throughout your whole life, you shall only think of her, you shall make sure to liberate her from all the evils which might befall her, and you shall aid her in every good deed, which she desires to accomplish. If she loves someone, you shall aid her in this too. Said and done: the adept turned into a big diamond and found himself on the neck of the daughter of the king. Two tears rolled down from the eyes of the adept and he said to himself: Is this how far I’ve come, I had to turn into a stone? The daughter of the king did not know where this diamond came from, but each night when she took it off her neck, she caressed it, she stroked it and said: I love you, even though I do not know your story. Who knows at what depth you were in the ground! I know nothing of you, but I love you. – In this way spoke the daughter of the king each night with her diamond, and it remained silent. This is art! To sit on the neck of the daughter of the king, for her to speak to you, and you to remain silent. To perch on top of the dump hill, like the rooster, and to crow, to flap your wings – this does not yet resolve the matter. The rooster says that it does not dawn without him, but is it truly so? – It dawns without roosters too, but if there are roosters and they do not sing, earthquakes happen. What is the rooster? – The rooster is the mind with which the person must think. If in every task the person does not instil their mind, to consider well what to do, it will still dawn, but there will be an earthquake. What is the earthquake? – bankruptcy, ruin.

…And so, each one must make an internal arrangement of their thoughts, feelings, deeds, and to place them in their respective places. Each one must have a clear concept of the way in which they are walking, of the capital share that they have. Said in other words: each one must have a connection to what is Great, if they desire to be free. The Great, which connects the person, simultaneously liberates them, makes them free. The free person is constant, resilient. Whatever the external conditions may be, this person always remains one and the same. They only change on the outside, but on the inside they remain immutable. This is the Divine Law which everyone admits, but few fulfil.

 ‘’He that hath the bride is the bridegroom’’. Now you shall make a translation, what inside you corresponds to the sun, and what – to the day. Your life, this is your day. For the sun you shall answer yourselves. You must know one thing, that on earth only the sun marries the day. The moon, the stars, people, can only rejoice about the sun, i.e. the bridegroom and his bride. Truly, we can only rejoice about this wedding, this inner process, through which something great and joyful is brought into the world. When someone complains of their misfortunes, the reason for this is that they have never been present at the wedding of the sun. If there are unhappy ones among you, I invite them right away to the wedding of the sun tomorrow. Only in this way shall they be renewed, they shall find the Truth, which shall make them free. I live once, I think and I am free, this is the Truth for me. Must it now be proven to me what is the Truth? – But I must teach you how to live. – If you are a master, I am ready to listen to you. If you are a master violinist, or a great artist, I am ready to learn from you. The best teacher, though, is nature. It renews, it brings peace for all living beings. Aim to gain something each day, as small as this attainment might be. In it, there is growth, uplifting…

Many think that when they go to the sky, among the angels, among the supreme beings, they will attain knowledge. – For the ones who believe in this, it is so, but what will those ones say, who do not believe in the existence of angels? They at least believe that in the world there are Wise, learned people. Do you think though, that if one incapable person goes to one Wise, learned man, that he will spend time on him? He will say: Please, relieve me, I am busy, I have important work. Learned people are like the English, they do not apologise much to their guests. If you go to visit the home of an English person, if they are busy, they look at their watch, they take their hat and say: Pardon me! – and walk out. They give no explanations, that they are busy, that they have promised someone to meet them, and they do not care whether you will stay in their home, or you will go. The Bulgarian person acts in the exact opposite way: even if they are busy with something, even if they have promised some meeting, once they have guests arriving, they are ready to postpone everything. If they cannot postpone it, they will explain, they will apologise. In this way acts the young lady too. She has some belief, she believes in God, but once she meets a young man, she falls in love with him and she gives up on her belief, on God – to her it is important to live well with this young man. And the young man gives up on his belief because of the young lady. But both of them do not make it in life. Do not expect anything from a person who is willing to give up on their belief, on their conviction. According to me, here is how the young man should act when he sees that for him, the young lady is willing to give up on her beliefs. He should say to her: Because you are giving up on your beliefs, I cannot marry you, because tomorrow you will give up on me too. – If it is a matter of the person giving up the insignificant, the transient in their life – I understand, but to give up on the ideal of their Soul – I do not understand.

A young lady met a young man and said to him: Listen, I have morals, from which I never back down. They are the following: I never change my head, I never rent out my eyes, I never send my tongue to the market. If you have the same morals, I am willing to marry you, otherwise I do not agree to live with you. I say: everything in the world may change, but the head of the person – never. – But they took the head of so-and-so. – If someone is able to take the head off your shoulders, you are not a person. Even if they take your head off a hundred times, it must still go back to its place. This is what it means to be a person! Bandits met an adept and said to him: Give us your money soon! – I cannot give it. – We will take your head off! – You can, try it! – One of the bandits waved his knife and cut off the head of the adept. He bent down, took his head and put it in its place. – Give us your money soon! – I cannot, it is meant for someone else. – The bandit waved his knife again, took off the head of the adept. The adept bent down, took the head and put it in its place. As many times as the bandit cut off the adept’s head, that many times he put it back in its place. Finally, when the arm of the bandit grew tired, he gave up fighting the adept. The adept said to him: However many times you take off my head, you should know that I will never give you my money. – This is what bravery means! I ask: how many of the people today, when they see that their head is coming off their shoulders, will not give away their treasure, which God has given them? Bravery, decisiveness, fearlessness are required of you. You want now to be spoken to in a scientific manner. I ask: with the tongue of which science would you like to be spoken to – with the tongue of human science, or with the tongue of Divine science? What science is this one, which brings fear and trembling in the person and makes them fear their shadow?

…‘’He that hath the bride is the bridegroom.’’ This lecture is necessary for you in order for you to be able to solve your difficulties easily. Do not wait to grow old, to then become learned people. Learn throughout the whole eternity. – A person must live! – Do not think of this. Think only of today, not of tomorrow. When you get up in the morning, prepare yourself internally to go to a wedding. Consider that you are a wedding man and rejoice about the bridegroom, who has the bride. Today the sun is shining, and the wedding man, the bridegroom is on the top. Rejoice! – in this is the Great Teaching. This is the way, in which all the boons in the world can come. This is the way, in which the talents in the person can be developed. The teacher of the violin may tell their student for a long time how they must play, but this is not enough. The teacher must take his violin and show the student how to play. There are things which cannot be transmitted verbally. Therefore, in such a lecture as today’s one, not everything can be transmitted, but whoever thinks in the right way, they can benefit.

Questions of the Children towards Eleazar pt.12 – 25th of August 2024

When a person dies they do not wake up? Some children do not believe in God! Who has created God Himself?

-Shall we start with a formula?

-Yes.

-To protect ourselves? You say.

-“(God), protect us Almightily in every moment.”

-Hello, friends. Today is the 12th part of our series “Questions of the Children towards Eleazar”. It is now a year since we’ve started this series. We continue with Loa’s questions – who, if we swap the two letters, becomes Lao. So, Loa from Sweden. Before that, let us ask Eleazar – to tell us a little more about the idea that he shared with me last time, that Truth is the True immune system of the person, and how immunity depends on Love and the attitude towards Truth. Would you add to this idea?

-So, every speaking of the Truth, the correct utterance – the Soul knows it – it strengthens the power and the immune system. There are such formulas, right: “God is my Sublime immune system” – I use… Another one is: “Lord, my God, my Master, give me the Sublime immune system.” They are important. So, I do not know if I have said them before, but this is the idea: “Watch fearsomely vigilantly over every word,” right… And this means that the slightest judgment and you already separate yourself. I am speaking whether you criticize an ant or an animal, which is very difficult to achieve (not to do) – but whoever trains and realizes it, will not judge anything. Because in what you judge, God is there too. And you do not really know His Plan, you may think, but what are you imagining… You might think someone is an enemy, another – a friend. It might turn out the opposite in time. So every word – when we start to watch closely, it begins… We heal the Word and heal all who hinder the immune system, and… The immune system is our concealed weapon – actually, our concealed Love towards the Truth and towards God.

-So, can we say that health flows from Truth in the body?

-Yes, if the person has Completeness, has Love, then they have Wholeness. And Love is always directed towards Truth – it is closely connected. They cannot exist without each other.

-Yes, yes.

-You cannot be within Truth and not have Love. Or be in Love and not seek Truth. It means you have not understood them.

-Yes. And Truth has an egregor, just as lies have an egregor?

-Yes. In the end, Truth always wins. Buddha was asked – He… in this world, they say, many asked Him, saying that the lie wins in this world. No. The lie never wins. It may seem so, but no. Truth always wins.

-What is God’s Idea for letting this illusion spread like this?

-Well, so they can pay for their lies and in time come to value the lie and… In Buddhism, it is said in one place that in the world, there is only one Saviour, and that is Truth.

-Yes.

-Not Names, it is not Someone… Some call Him Buddha, Mohammad, Christ, right. No. It is the Truth. Those things are secondary. The Truth. A person might be in some cave, having heard nothing of Christ or Buddha or Mohammad – and simply by observing Truth, that is enough.

-The Truth – as a practice, as an approach?

-Yes, It is there on the inside – the person carries It within. There is no Soul that does not know, when it acts, how it acts. It cannot be, right. And besides that, it is reminded. Yes. So, these actions – the right ones, they build the immune system, they are an attitude towards Truth.

-Yes. Well, thank you. So, the first question from Loa – I will just remind, he is… the specific  thing about him is that he answers himself, and Eleazar will add to him. So, the first question: “When a person dies, they do not wake up, right?” and he answers himself “But they wake up in the other world.”

-So, if a person does not have a Soul, do not have Essence. Then they are sleeping here and in the other world. Then others wake them up, because the person has no consciousness. They must wake the person for a long time, until the person begins to remember. Those who have loved God, awaken in themselves, just as they were awakened on Earth as well. Awakening is a matter of Awareness and it does not depend on which world you are in. Death is beautiful when you die with Love for God and for the Master. Our Concealed Essence is God, and so there is no way that we can die, we only migrate and conceal ourselves. It is much better that the body is dead, than the Soul. Whoever believes only in this world and in this life – here, on Earth, they cannot develop. They are bitten by the snake. The true person is something deeper than the other world. We will keep dying until we give birth to God and the Master in ourselves. This is the answer.

-Yes. The second question from Loa: “Some children do not believe in God,” and he answers himself: “How is it so that they not believe in God?”.

-If God wishes, He can send them Himself and an experience of Himself, and then everything changes. But in their past reincarnations, they have denied Him and they are not ready for a meeting with Him now. But God is able to wait. If they do not believe in the Reality of God, they will live another life, a confused life, and they will realize their illusion.

-Yes, yes. The third question: “And who created the stars, the trees? Did they create themselves?” and he answers himself: “It is very clear that God created them.”

-Each tree can tell many Secrets. It has a Core, within which are the Supreme Beings who have created it. God created the Supreme Beings. The Supreme Beings, the trees, and so on… Though secretly behind it all is God again, but He also gave Others the ability to create – they created the tree with the energy by which it blossomed. This energy is reasonable and speaking. Beings speak to each other through their energies, and that is why the Druids talked to the trees. The oak deepens the person’s energy. Trees are Sacraments. In the roots, the energies flow downwards, in the branches – upwards, and in the fruit – inwards. The branch that rises, that is the elevated energy. The energy of the root is bound to flow down, so the branches have a foundation. One true and pure fruit is the result of ripened energy, and the Master says: “There are trees that are even more religious than people.” What will you say about the Tree of Life? – The Master. And the Master also says: “Trees are excellent Sages of Silence. They are deeply silent, but they hear and understand.” The matter is of the Core in their energy – in the Concealed atom. They hear and understand things in their Core energy. And the Master says: “If a person is buried upside down, they will dry out and die, and the tree flourishes.” The oak does not appear from the acorn and from the seed. If you cut open the acorn, you will not see the tree, nor the branches. Trees are born from Invisible Forces that are beyond Earth and beyond the seed. The tree disappears into the acorn, and the acorn disappears into the Invisible. And the Invisible can also disappear, says the Master, into Nothingness – into Its Father. In the oak there is a Fiery Core – a Core of Pure fine energy. This Core can speak, whisper, and give real wise advice. The same applies to the stars. I published a book about the Secrets of the Druids. There are valuable things about the trees in it.  Our Pure Spirit can come into connection with the fine vibrations of the tree, and time ago the Sages and the trees were friends and conversed with each other as beings, as energies, as brothers. A tree can teach you how to blossom and bear fruit. A tree can give you so much and even become part of your Way. In the energy field of the tree, there is something from the Great and Ineffable Beginning. In the tree, there is Peace, and Peace is Purity. And much, much more I can tell, but this is enough.

-Yes.

-A long topic.

-What speaks, let us say in the cats – I consider them as my people – is it also the Core in them?… Wordlessly, but they whisper – as thoughts, as images, and you understand what they want to tell you. -They have a Deep Pure Core – that is how they are born. They are beings of Nothingness and within them other Beings of Nothingness together… Sometimes it is the Spirit of the cat itself, sometimes it is the Being that is truly close.

-Yes.

-They are all from Nothingness and this is why they are Deep beings. Dogs cannot replace them. They came much later. Cats are Primordial.

-Yes, because they are able to whisper and to  – if you have the attitude towards them – to understand what they want, what they want to tell you.

-They are very Deep beings and they can reveal – including Secrets.

-Yes. So, the last question from Loa: “And who created God Himself?” and he answers himself: “Aaa, God – He is so great that He cannot be born.”

-Yes. God is not a Creation – God was not created, God was Emanated. The Absolute limited itself, it Self-created as God, to become closer, more accessible and better known. God was Emanated from the Sublime Nothingness and is a likeness of the Nothingness and Limitlessness, and the Boundless. God is a Secret of a Great Mystery. And thus, the Absolute Self-created Itself as God and thus became manifest – in this way It became manifest and It hid Itself. God is a Self-limitation of the Absolute, Which, according to the Master, cannot be contained neither within the Universe, n or outside of it. It is Beyond all creation. It is the Origin itself – there is no Beginning. Absolutely Beginningless – without Origin, and that is why the Master says: “Life has a Beginning, but has no Origin.” As God, a Beginning is placed – Alpha and Omega, but it is conditional. Why? Because this is a Mystery of the Sublime Nothingness – the Origin (the Proto-Origin). From there, everything descended in billions of forms – this is Self-creation, the Self-descent of the Proto-Origin, Which is before everything, before Alpha and Omega. Reverence before the Supreme Mystery.

-Yes, thank you. There is an idea I shared with you. Now I will read it again. I will ask you to add something, if you want to. Something about – I call it the Ethnicity of the Soul and the Spirit, which is the Ethnicity of the New humanity, the Ethnicity of those who love the Truth, united by their Love for God. They are beyond all nations and religions. And for me, this is the New Ethnicity that will unite the Sons and Daughters of God. This is the Ethnicity of God, which has been forever. This Ethnicity has its own egregor and the main characteristic of this egregor is Love for God.

-Yes. Ethnicity is a limited concept, like nations, different rays, everything comes together in One Sun, which is the Race of the Gods and the completely Concealed Race of the Divinities – that which is already Primordial. But it cannot be called an Ethnicity. It is a Sublime Proto-civilisation.

-Yes, yes. Next month, Matthey will visit us with his questions – that is for September. And we will read two of his questions: “When will the Apocalypse come?” That is one. And the other: “How did Atlantis fall?” Shall we answer him?

-Children’s questions, beautiful, yes. All beautiful.

-The answer, naturally, to this and other questions – in our next conversation with Eleazar. And we will see you on September 6th in Varna for the Meeting of the Masters at the FCC at 17:00. And the topic of the meeting is: “Awakening.”

-Yes.

Eleazar – Mohammad

5.8.2014

Mohammad (Second idea for contemplation)

There is nothing else, but Allah.

Recognise God in everything.

God is a Secret Treasure inside of me.

Hell is for the impure ones, and only the fools strive towards Heaven.

When God is on the person’s side, all their enemies are powerless.

The pure one will not be touched by worry.

On the outside there are my words, on the inside there are my actions – but only the Truth is my deepest state.

Prayer is Light, and Patience is Shining.

Every science which has forgotten God, is as hollow as a thistle.

When you lose your marvellous daughter (he lost her, and when he lost her, Mohammad  was sincere, he said: ) God giveth and God taketh away! (This is how the Wise Master acts: ‘’ God giveth and God taketh away. Blessed be His Name!’’ – because this is Trust. Trust towards God, Who never makes a mistake.)

Mohammad has nothing in common with the hypocritical piety. He is an Ancient son of the Desert, and there is no hypocrisy there.

In his heaviest days, Mohammad says: ‘’God is Great!’’ This is a great Revelation, born in the heavy battles with the Desert – the overcoming of the Desert. This is something very deep and something experienced. Something that has since influenced millions, who loyally walk on this Way, which will, in time, turn them into Light – since the tribes of those times were very disobedient. In order for the Arabs to prevent their daughters from debauchery and marriage, they buried them alive in the Desert – and many other things of which I do not wish to speak… Mohammad changed this part and this Way. He says: Because truly, God is always Great!

Aisha, Mohammad’s wife, says to him: Everyone has their own devil. Mohammad replies: Yes, I have my own devil too, but I turned him on to the Way of the Truth and now he is obedient to me. – I.e. each person has one personal devil whom they must deal with.

Mohammad says: The person is only this, in which they have been diligent. (So, wherever your diligence is, there your Essence will be born).

Humility – this is my pride.

The beginning of Wisdom, this is two things. First, the beginning of Wisdom is Patience. Second, what is the beginning of Wisdom? To ask for God’s help in everything.

Non-believers are sinful towards their own selves, they are not sincere towards their own selves.

God has power over everything – He can take away people’s abilities, as well.

Whoever lies, they are not of our Way.

To deceive is worse than to kill.

Say the Truth even when it is against you.

The person is able to resolve their matters without seeking the Truth, but these matters will confuse their life, they will be only seemingly resolved. It is better to have unresolved matters, but to seek Allah.

Learn half of your religion from Purity – it is the Master.

The person is greatly ungrateful towards their Lord.

Whoever knows God, knows the solution to every problem as well.

Sages and Mystics of all times – Book 3 by Eleazar Harash

Mohammad (around 570-632)

A Great Prophet, Founder of Islam

Islam means devotion to God.

Any person can become holy, but the gift to be a Prophet is something that does not depend on the will of the person.

For the religious seeking of Anciency there exists another way – the Way of Absorption into the Self, the immersion into the inner world, the governing of the emotions and thoughts.

The more the person overcomes their animalistic and selfish nature, the more they draw near to the supremely-sensitive world and the quicker that world comes to aid them itself, and gradually or seemingly all at once the whole Truth and Knowledge is revealed. And together with this Absolute Knowledge, the person attains an indescribable might and power over the earth and the sky, over the people and the spirits, and such power that even the laws of reality, in which they live, begin to depend on the person’s will and with their Word, the person is able to move mountains, to turn rocks into gold, to subdue the spirits to their command.

Appearing before the Face of God, taking position for prayer – to be unclean, dirty, is a disrespect before the Almighty One.

Always speak the Truth!

Faith must be embodied as a way of life.

The person must always aim to speak the Truth and only the Truth, as scary or heavy as that may be. To speak the Truth means not only not to hide your deeds, which is relatively easy, but also not to hide your intentions and the secret and invisible movements of the Soul.

The actions of people will be judged according to the intentions and motives.

Excess food and drink kills the heart.

Without God the world cannot exist for even one moment.

More than anything in the world I love women and incense, but true pleasure I find only in prayer.

God never assigns to the person a burden which they would not be able to carry. God is too merciful to have excessive requirements towards the person.

Food must be moderate, because that is beneficial for the body, the Soul and the health.

Sensual attraction towards the woman is not a sin in itself before the Face of God, but it becomes a sin if it is directed in a wrong direction which has not been resolved.

Avoid to notice and criticise the flaws in people, especially those ones which you also possess. Such judgemental nature is based on pride, on a desire to find excuses and embellish yourself, and this is very bad, because true humbleness is the source of all virtues.

When you see a person who has been granted more wealth and beauty than you, then think of the people who have been gifted with less than you.

In their wishes the person must be governed by the old principle known long ago: to wish for your brother that which you would wish for yourself.

Thought must be disciplined – the mind must not be occupied with worthless deeds and matters of the daily life, because it is a test for the sincerity of every believer to pay no attention to what is found outside of their power.

Each word spoken leaves a deep imprint in the consciousness of the one speaking, even if it was pronounced jokingly or coincidentally.

Purity cannot be attained if the person does not place their word under a distinct and strict control.

A word pronounced in the presence of other people, in itself is already an act, some action, so a person, aiming towards purity, must adhere in their speech to an inner hygiene of behaviour.

Do not slander anyone! If someone slanders against you and starts to expose the vices which they know in you, do not expose the vices which you know in them! It is undignified to disgrace any honour, it is undignified to curse anyone, all empty speaking is undignified.

The one who does not have a pure heart and a tongue restrained from empty talking, cannot be a believer.

It is better to be alone than with an evil person, but it is even better to be with someone good, than to be alone.

It is better to speak to the one seeking knowledge, than to remail silent, but it is even better to remain silent than to have an empty conversation.

To stay silent more and to remain in a good predisposition of Spirit – what is better than this?

Prayer – this is the exaltation of the Spirit and the union of the believer with God.

God, grant me with Love towards You, grant me with Love towards the ones that You love, make it so that I am able to do things, deserving of Your Love, make it so that Love is dearer to me than my own self, than my family and than my wealth!

O, God! I ask You for firmness in faith and for readiness to walk in the right Way. I also ask You to give me an innocent heart which would be repulsed by vice, and a truthful tongue.

God is invisible and He does not tolerate idolatry. God is Omnipresent so it does not matter what side you turn your face to during prayer.

For the All-Seeing God the Soul of the person is an open book, He reads in the hearts of people and it is preposterous to think that the loud prayer has bigger chances to be heard, than the prayer, pronounced mentally.

God has nothing in common with man. God is Boundless in time and space, the same way as in His creating. He has created an innumerable multitude of worlds and an innumerable multitude of beings granted with reason, only one of which is man. From this, all pretence of the person for an exceptional place in the Universe and for exclusive attention from God, must be rejected as ridiculous.

God is above every morality.

God is good and merciful not because He is obliged to be such, but because goodness and kindness are His Primordial qualities, stemming from the attitude of the Creator towards the world, created by Him.

To wash the nose with water in the morning is necessary, because during sleep, in the nose spirits are instilled. To start the day with a wash and with prayer, is necessary again because of the devil – during sleep he ties three knots on the back of the person’s head, also adding: ‘’Let the night be long for you – sleep!’’ When, upon awakening, the believer is reminded of God, the first knot is untied. When they wash themselves, the second knot is untied. And when the believer prays, the third and last knot tied by the devil also disappears. Then the person will be in a good mood since the morning and their Soul will be calm, but if they do not do this, they will be disturbed and suppressed since the morning.

Almost every action has a deep magical meaning and is able to cause a shock in the supremely-sensitive world, which would often be fateful for the worldly life of the person and for their afterlife.

Your servants are your brothers whom God has placed under your rule. Each one who is the master of their brother, is obliged to give them of the food they eat themselves, and to dress them in the same way as they dress themselves. Do not force your servants to do work not within their strength, but if this happens, help them. Pay your worker what they are owed before their sweat has dried.

In the eyes of God the one who is seeking their right stands beneath someone who has found the strength in themselves to pure-heartedly forgive the offender or the one who has insulted them.

All people are brothers, including those of them, to whom, due to their spiritual blindness and in accordance with the Divine Conception, the voice of the True faith has not yet reached.

The poor man, deprived of the sin of pride and kept safe due to their poorness from the sinful temptations of the world, has bigger chances to earn blissfulness in the following immortal life in the Heavens, while at the same time the majority of the rich will inevitably suffer in hell… The poor man is closer to God than the rich man and if the person is forgiven in their pride in any way, they should be more proud in their poverty, than in richness.

Mercy, this is practicing good deeds, acts, dictated by Love towards our brothers.

A person who has picked up and removed from the road a thorny branch, in the eyes of God may have done a more significant act of mercy, than a person sacrificing a part of their possessions. The first person’s act was dictated by Selfless Love towards their brothers as beings of God. They have prevented the good person, the evil person, their friend, their enemy and even total strangers from harming their foot in the same way. This is why the poor one has no fewer chances for mercy than the rich one, so in this regard they are equal.

When the person gives from what little they have, but attained with their own labour – this is the mercy that is most pleasing to God.

It is mercy when you smile to your brother in a welcoming way, it is mercy when you incite towards noble deeds and you refrain from unlawful acts, it is mercy when you show the Way to those who have lost it and when you help the blind person.

There is no coercion in faith. God Himself knows who to guide in the Truthful Way and who to leave in delusion.

God is One – Eternal, not giving birth and Unborn, knowing no equals to Himself. He is Almighty and Merciful.

At the judgement which God will hold on the fearsome day, excuses will be unnecessary – each Soul will see everything which they have done before… everything will be revealed – even the most concealed and secretive – and each Soul will know that God has been informed of everything. In complete solitude the person will stand on Judgement day before the Almighty One and no relatives, nor friends will be their protectors on that day. And the person shall be judged not as an Arab or a representative of some clan – all these remnants of the tribal and family system are incompatible with the faith in the One God. On Judgement day the person will stand in their true image – before God, all their other relations are secondary and after God.

The righteous people are the ones who pray – the ones who are constant in their prayer, who believe in the Judgement day and who fear the punishment of their Lord.

God does not create miracles out of mercy – He knows perfectly well that even miracles would not make the ones who are stubbornly drawn to evil and sin, to repent pure-heartedly for their delusions and to believe.

What is most important is the faith, and not how much you pray, fast or how many bows you have done – the faith and the striving for purity.

God is alone and He has no companions.

God was not born and He does not give birth – everything that He creates, He creates it with His Word. It is sufficient that Allah says ‘’Let there be’’ – and what He has conceived is then created. Therefore, Allah has no daughters nor sons.

Allah has no companions and helpers bestowed with a will separate from His. The Almighty One has only servants, acting in accordance with the will of their Master.

Of God you must not ponder, but believe.

There is not one nation to which the merciful God has not shown the True Way for Salvation.

Only God has complete knowledge of the past, the present and the future, and also for that which is concealed within the hearts, because unknown are the Ways of the Lord, and the wisdom of the world is madness before God.

It is the duty of the believers to accept everything given by God unreservedly, to be patient because they do not possess ‘supreme knowledge’’ and their concepts of good and justice are incomplete, so that they may attain the Divine Good and the Divine Justice.

All believers make up one nation which is not split into tribes and clans.

One God, One faith, One nation, One law for everyone. All are equal before the law.

Only God grants life and death.

Help comes only from God.

Be patient! Allah is with the patient ones!

Every miracle is in the power of God, other than the earthly happiness of the person.

I am a person just like you. I have surrendered myself to God, to the One and Almighty and I will enact each of His orders. Could I know the conception of the Merciful One? Life and death, the present and the future – everything is in His power. The ones walking the way of Allah will be victorious because who is able to oppose His will?

Without prayer there is no faith.

Allah knows what is in your hearts. Allah is knowing and meek!

As much as I pray for the hypocrites – my prayer shall not bring any benefit to them.

We are all of God and we shall return to Him.

The last words of Mohammad before he died: ‘’O my Lord, I did not succeed in knowing you in the way that You deserve to be known. I did not succeed in knowing you completely.’’
