Reality and realisation

[PBUH]

Ibn 'Atallah, may Allah be pleased with him, says in his “Hikam’

“Do not accompany one whose state does not change you and whose speech does not guide you to Allah.”

Until one has met a living and teaching Shaykh there can only be glimpses of the unitive reality in creational experience. Realization of the unitive reality can only be focused and reflected wholesomely through the exposure to one who is fully realized, and is himself a clear and pure reflector of divine unity.

A great Shaykh and arif once said:

“Once you have met your Shaykh you have come to the complete meaning of your life. After this meeting there can only be further unveilings and openings to one’s reality, or may Allah protect us, a covering up of the opportunity and a plunge into darkness.”

"Mankind was created neither in vain nor by chance: Does man suppose he will be left in futility?" (75:36)

Assalamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu

Subhanallah, so true.

Before my bayt with my shaykh i knew i had a goal, and a purpose. and since doing bayt i realise the deeper meanings of reaching that goal with a clearer vision and path.
