Silent Vibrations

The Life Absolute from which has sprung all that is felt, seen, and perceived, and into which all again merges in time, is a silent, motionless and eternal life which among the Sufis is called Zaat. Every motion that springs forth from this silent life is a vibration and a creator of vibrations. Within one vibration are created many vibrations; as motion causes motion so the silent life becomes active in a certain part, and creates every moment more and more activity, losing thereby the peace of the original silent life.

Balancing the States of Mind

In your day-to-day life, you come across all kinds of situations that can be challenging and demanding a degree of alertness to be able to make good choices. These situations give rise to different states of mind, and neither life nor the states of mind occur with our permission. In fact, they often occur in direct defiance to our wishes.

We know that the human brain is a powerful organ, but many of us aren’t aware of how much the mind is truly capable of — and much more powerful it can become through deliberate training.

Understanding of Muraqaba

Muraqaba is a sufi term that means fear, to inspect, to watch over, to take care of, to control, to look at one’s inner world, to be entranced, to think of the aim at all times, to look at Allah with the heart at all times, to keep the soul under control in order to protect the heart from bad deeds, to know that Lord knows every state of a person, to dismiss everything from one’s mind and be ready to receive inspiration from Allah by kneeling down and closing the eyes.

Entering into one after leaving the other or getting something Read More...

Sufism and Tasawwuf

Today most of people calling a spiritual one as “SUFI” . Even a meditation guy or girl also calling himself a Sufi… so the word “SUFI” has been misunderstood in today’s society. The word SUFI defines a thought-form which believes in oneness, but Islamic Sufi is not a Sufi without practicing Shariah. Islam has no SUFISM but a proper and powerful islamic branch of Tasawwuf. Tasawwuf is a branch of Islamic knowledge which focuses on the spiritual development of the Muslim. Allah  sent His final messenger, Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, as a source of knowledge for the entire ummah.
