00:00Why do I need a shaykh why I don't just connect directly to the heavens once their nafs resolves
00:06that issue it's not that easy and why do I need you to connect to Prophet ï·º?
00:13People are not understanding the reality of tafakkur anytime we're trying to connect
00:19with something unknown to us and entering into a world of light and energy you're not
00:27connecting into something you know not its image not its reality not its understanding
00:33you're trying to seek an understanding to know the heavens and trying to understand the
00:38realities of Prophet ï·º but you don't know them and you don't know anything about that
00:44dimension as a result if you were to sit and meditate like most new age concepts where you
00:52just ego realization they call self realization in actuality it's ego realization the danger
00:59is as soon as you sit to connect your heart and as soon as you close your eyes it's like
01:04opening the door to your home if you have any treasures in your home you have to know for
01:09sure there are demons entering when somebody's sitting and oh I want to connect them I'm in
01:15the bushes and I'm going to connect the nature going to connect to the heavens then you're
01:19going to see all the spirituality of demons all sitting there connecting to you and you
01:25don't know what you're opening yourself to so that's why we have a system but people
01:29who like to make comments without knowing anything you know because this is a state of great ignorance
01:35when you come to the tariqahs and to Sufism this is their science of this reality this is
01:42their science in which they've been taught and they have ijazah to teach it and to convey how
01:47it's to be done you don't ever want to close your eyes and open yourself to the unknown and
01:54as soon as you do that you have to know everything forbidden will begin to appear in front of you
02:00because you ask to open up and the rules of and the discipline of opening oneself up is like
02:07a GPS that, Ya Rabbi I'm asking to connect my heart to your heavens where,
02:12I'm asking to connect to your Divinely powers I'm asking to connect to the reality in the
02:24lights of Sayyidina Muhammad ï·º from Atiyullah, Atiyya Rasul, Urud Amr Minkum Qur'an states
02:31this system and I'm asking to connect to these Urud Amr these people of authority and my
02:37sheikh who's teaching me this reality I want to visualize his personality.
