TRANSLATION OF THE CHAT/MESSAGE RECEIVED BY GARIB ON 15 MAY 2009

[Texts written between square brackets and some punctuation are added for the sake of making the meaning clearer.]

IN THE NAME OF ALLAH, THE MOST MERCIFUL, THE MOST COMPASSIONATE

Our head that we bend forward,
Our eyebrow that we frown
Tell about yesterday, [to]day,
Cause the one who does not know his/her Rab, to groan.

Each step that we take in His name,
Each sip that we drink in His name,
Tells us about ourselves,
Makes [us] listen to the most beautiful psalm.

When sheep settle in the pasture,
When lambs bleat,
Their sound comes to us as pleasant.
When human is in peace,
He/she has dream according to his/her wish.

Mevlana said,
When you respect the steps, [if you do not complain about events, if you conform to events]
When you put the corns in your saddlebag, [when you learn each one of His lessons]
Both my life and my blood
Find their support,
Take the most beautiful lesson.

My Yunus said,
The horse that runs in the field
Gets exited at the stable,
Spreads love to its surrounding.
My horse is a little bit crazy,
Its saddlebags are kind of loaded.
Heart conforms to the path of the one who comes, who goes.

I asked Kaygusuz:
Did you erase your worries?
Did you always divide your love?
Did you stay in "single science"?
He said:
I said neither trouble nor worry.
The law that my Rab wrote
Made me find myself.
HE always filled my jug.

Pir Sultan Abdal said,
I overestimated the earth:
I insisted that he/she served my Rab.
[however,] Work gives artwork if it is loved.
If work is performed [without love]
One makes decision about [it]. [about whether it is satisfactory or not]
Let it not be thought that the one who has [evil] eye, gives harm;
My Rab protects the one who is on His path, HE protects, HE protects.

If you say remedy for the trouble, [if you say remedy instead of 'trouble']
You find the delight. [you find untroubledness]
If you say firman [decree] about the writing, [the writing==1. the destiny; 2. ONEness of HEARTs],
You see yourself in both worlds. [i.e. on earth and in after earth life]

Science, 'knowing' are real. ["...'knowing' says The Meaning; 'science' says the matter..." [from ONEness of HEARTs on 24 February 1977]]
'Knowing' is for solving the science,
For reaching Him.
Truth is open to the one who knows The Reality
And that one is His Representative [Prophet Mohammad].
No living [being] can reach one single secret of HIS
[no living being] Can say in the name of Rab that the secrets are open
Except His Representative.
That Rab
Is The Owner of each particle that is created,
Is The Possessor of each property.
HE becomes ONE, HE comes together, HE chats
With the one who is with HIM.
However,
No one can know HIM,
No one can see HIM.
No one can say that he/she is at HIS level.
Mountains, stones,
Waters, birds,
Each particle that is created
Chants HIM,
Thinks of HIM,
Wants to come together with HIS LOVE.
[Previous verses may be better understood under the light of the following information: Allah created/creates the matter by transforming some of HIS LIGHT into particles [matter]. HIS LIGHT is shadowless, matter is imaginary. HIS LIGHT is everywhere yet since human's eye can only see the 'matter light,' it is curtained from HIS LIGHT and can not see HIM. Everything that is visible to human eye, including human body, is HIS LIGHT in the form of image. HE makes His Particles act according to rules that can be expressed mathematically, and lets humans discover these rules that humans call as 'science.' HE knows what each human thinks in every moment. HE is in complete control of HIS particles in every moment, HE is The Creator of all events...]

Hazrat Ali said,
Take the air as much as you can take,
Dive into HIS [spiritual] water as much as you can dive,
Love each particle as much as you can love:
You will see, [vision==to see Him in His creations]
You will mature spiritually under HIS command.

Let selam [peace/greeting] be, let selam be, let selam be.

Allahu Ekber [Allah is The Greatest], Allahu Ekber, Allahu Ekber.

Lailaheillallah Muhammeden Resulullah. [Allah is The only One to be worshiped; we wish to YOU and to Your Representative Mohammad.]

LOVE, SEE & SHARE:

Love all HIS creations;
See HIM in all of HIS creations;
Share HIS Meaning.
