ONEness of HEARTs
VOLUME 2
Part 32

1 April 1974

I am Mevlana.
I came with my Yunus,
I gave the word together [with him].
I said as remembered.
The one who comes from earth
Is the one who knows WHAT he/she sees on earth,
Is the one who sees that water flows [to the ocean], [ocean==God]
Is the one who takes his [Yunus'] hand from Yunus,
Is the one who gives his/her heart to HIM.

We said, "Eyvallah,"
We gave the word to my Yunus.
Word [is] in us, chat [is] in you.
Path [is] in us, heart [is] in you.

If you say, “Let us not fall in narrowness,”
[then] Do not say word about The Being.

Colt that you do not think about [it] in order to interpret, does not try to give. [when we say "colt," if you do not think and interpret, then you would not understand the mystical meaning / if you read our chats superficially, you would not understand...]

If you give up the green, the one whom you do not think of, does not find you. [green==Light color of Prophet Mohammad]

Do not say, “The one that is not beautiful,” [because] no wrong occurs in the universe,
Because The Creator does not fall in fault.

What The Writer wrote/writes, opens path to the one who sees.

At the place where day ends, darkness starts.
Darkness is such that, let human stay outside of it,
Let him/her not be inside of it.
[Previous verses may be better understood under the light of the following information [it is thought that both of the following meanings are implied]: 1) During sleep, soul of the human who has permission from Allah meets with other spirits of the same level and/or his/her saint. The meeting takes place in Light, in other words, those souls are not in the dark during the sleep. Let human be among the ones who have permission from God and let him/her be in Light during the night. 2) Hell= the space where there is no color.]

If you say, “How does existence occur?”
The existence of the one that exists, is because of the writing of the destiny;
Is the existence of the earth, its filling up with human[s]
Not the will of The Writer?

I am Yunus, I took from the path,
I knew what I saw on the path.
What I knew [was] as much as I saw,
What I conformed to [was] as much as I was full.
You too, conform to what you hear.
Do not stay away from The One That is in your heart,
From The One That opens your vision. [vision==to see HIM in HIS creations]

Do not say, “Where would it/he/she come from?”
Not the one who wishes to come, but the one that is written comes.

Do not turn back from the day, one keeps in step with the one that goes. [one conforms to events...]

He said, he [Yunus] greeted.

The one that is said about, “It happened,” is the one that is seen.
The one that is said about, “It will happen,” is the one that is waited for.
We passed the one that happened.
To think about the one that is waited for
Is to look beyond the moment,
If you can [ever] see correctly...

Which one is necessary:
The one who wishes for patch
Or the one who ties knot to the wool ball?
If you wish for patch, your helper comes of course.
[in that case:]
There is no need for the knot of the wool ball.
“There is knot in my wool ball, effort to untie,” you say.
What is meant by effort? Patience of course.

No skill is seen in the hand that does not get tired. [? No skill is seen in the human who does not interpret [reflect]. ?]

If there is no lantern on the dark path, you can not see the one who comes.
In order to say, “Let me see,” light the lantern yourself.
The place where the lantern burns, is of course the place that is dark.
Darkness is only for earth human.
The one who goes [to after earth life], is the one who gets free of the darkness.
He/she is the one who finds The Reality at the place where he/she arrives.
What [a] happiness for the one who is among the ones who find.
What [a] happiness for the one who sees the surrounding.
Worry is for the one who leaves his/her heart without lantern.

Let no oath be taken.
At the place where there is word,
Because human’s arrival was not known,
Place was given to oath.
On the return of the path, oath is erased.

Let us erase the worry,
Let us plead for the one that/who comes, for the one that/who goes,
He said, Yahya Efendi took the word.
Did you look at the rise of the sun?
Did you watch the flow of the water?
Neither does the sun rise from the same place in 24 hour periods,
Nor does the water go back during its flow.
“Do I walk on the same path?” you say.
Neither to walk nor to turn back is in your hand.
What is in your hand is to conform only;
In your hal while you conform, to find the peace.

Beauty is
To be together with the ugly one,
[and] To be able to say, “Befitted so beautifully.”
What I call as “ugly,” is indeed the one that is beautiful.
Because it has not been seen that
The Creator created any ugly.
The one that is seen as ugly is indeed human’s own fault.
There is no mistake.
If you say, “Is death beautiful too?”
If you know that the death is the birth,
You would not say, “Ugly,” you would not shed eye tear.
Let it not be forgotten:
The one who is born [on earth] cries for what he/she knows, [he/she knows that he/she enters the cage that is called “body”]
The one who dies, laughs at his/her death,
At what he/she sees while dying. [human learns The Reality at the time of migration to after earth life; the smile that is seen on the face of a dying person is for that reason...]
Laughing of the one who is born [on earth],
Crying of the one who is dying
Has not been seen.

Each human’s destiny is not woven as ugly. [each human's destiny is woven as beautiful]

What is the reality?
The One That exists is seen; the one that happens is written.
Hope is the one that is not real.
If you say, “Let me know the one that is real,”
By conforming to what happens. [? By conforming to The Existing One. ?]

When it is decided to start [a] family,
Brave man becomes path-fellow, lady [becomes] hal-fellow.
Every hal is erased, destiny is divided [shared];
One comes from two-ness to one-ness; in you, "I/me" is sought:
You in me, me in you.
If one arrives at two, he/she is forgotten.
Let My Allah give peace to hearts,
Let HIM erase the shadow in [from] each human.

Goodbye.
Lailaheillallah Muhammedur Resulullah. [Allah is The only One to be worshiped, and Mohammad is HIS Representative.]

2 April 1974

I am Mevlana.
The one who takes path toward The New One,
The one who covets the old one,
Is he/she the one who knows his/her place?
[or] Is he/she the one who conforms to what is [already around]?
We are from the ones who put in your heart,
We are among the ones who turn [their back] to the old one,
We are among the ones who conform to The New One.
Even if you wish, you can not return to the old one.
If you turn you heart [away], you can not find The New One.

Events open when their times come.
Each human is chosen according to his/her manner of conduct during the event.
Otherwise, events do not change according to the manner of conduct of the human.

Your vision:
At each place where you go to,
You think, "I saw its end."
The more you see, the more you find your maturation.

Each one who goes [to after earth life] does not come back,
Does not give to earth human.
There is the giver,
There is the taker:
Except him/her, no one conforms to the giving.

When the spirit finds its place,
It leaves the thinking on earth.
Energy load
Not by thinking, but by way of current.
If the energy that the earth takes could conform to The Giver,
Then empty space would be at the place that is called “eye,”
Body would melt,
Forest would be ash,
Sea would evaporate.
My Allah decorated the universe
With so precise measures that
Each created one is partner in the load of the other created one.
What you try to destroy,
Comes and collapses onto you.
In reality, that event will happen;
However,
HE will show HIS human the law that makes no mistake:
HE writes,
HE puts in order,
HE sees,
HE looks after.

If there was no [spiritual] standard, you would not look for your [? HIS ?] path.
If your [spiritual] water did not flow, you would not open your nest. [nest==home] [nest==Mevlana's/Garib's congregation]
Know that the place of [spiritual] standard is because of HIS blessing.
Let you conform to the flow of the water without doubt:
[the flow of the spiritual water:] Our giving. [our chats]
Our chiseling [is] soft,
Our nest [is] soft,
The flow of the water [is] abundant,
Each human’s heart [is] free.
Let one not despise the faulty human
Because for the one who does not know [The Meaning], it is difficult to conform.

Your chiseling is with you, your question is with us. [your chiseling == the lessons/the test that you take on earth]
We prune the grapevine, we water its root.
Do we leave its fruit to birds?

Let one not say,
“The one who is worthy does not take path,
Does not find what he/she wishes for.”
[==Let one say,
"The one who is worthy takes HIS path,
Finds what he/she wishes for."]


The word of the one who says [bad] word about his/her opponent, does not come as nice of course.
However, nobody knows what the rightful due is, except HAK.
The one who is member of the society, is obliged to conform to its rule.
If you say, “Let me not conform,”
Even if you are right,
Society crushes you.
To be faithful is not by prostrating only,
To conform to the society is faithful’s duty too.

Osman says:
'War in the battlefield, peace in the society'
Is arriving at HIS Cemal. [Cemal=Appearance of Allah’s attributes in humans. [i.e. human being compassionate, forgiving, just, etc…]]
When you walk into the mosque, erase both the war and the peace,
Know only the arrival [at HIM].
If there is war in your heart,
Then stay away from the place where you are,
Because the war that is in your heart
Is because of the giving of the place where you are:
Either you run after wealth, or you scold the narrowness,
Or you ignore HIS human.
As faraway as you go [from that place], you come back to yourself.

If they ask you about the definition of 'beautiful,' what will you say?
'To exist' is beautiful.

If they take [you as] captain for the ship, if they assign you as its leader [as its captain],
Where does your path [trip] come to?
You come to the harbor at which you take your place.
There is a harbor that each human will come to.
Some [come] to close harbor, some [come] to [the one that is] far away.
The one that you say about, “That is the one!” is yours.

“The giver,” we said, we entered the word,
We found "the taker" on earth.
Let smoke be erased, let colors be divided, [let colors be divided==let [racial] discrimination end]
Let the mirror be looked in with the face that is desired.
The taker is loaded with electricity,
[the taker] Opened his/her door to the coming of the current.
Do not be mistaken: there is no human who has no electrical load.
However, he/she takes in accordance with his/her endurance power,
In other words, in accordance with his/her pot.
In the pot of Garib, there is specialty from the birth.
If you say, “Why?” it was given before.
In every hundred years the giver is renewed.
He/she is called center station.
From there, it disseminates to all [humans].
Golden pot is necessary, [because] silver does not withstand. [silver==matter; gold==spiritual meaning]
Let HIS human know his/her duty, let him/her conform to the giver.
I say to the nest. [nest=Mevlana's/Garib's congregation]
We gave before:
Because the electrical current is high,
One can not talk about the coming of other spirits.
Say, “My Allah,” prostrate yourselves,
You are chosen as the giver of hundred years.

Traveler of the bright path,
Watchman of the one who consults,
The one who recognizes the value of the blessing,
At the place where the water flows,
At the place where the torrent demolishes,
At the place where one is knocked on his/her knees,
Helper of each one who wishes [for help]:
Eyup Sultan
Is path-fellow of the one who seeks partner in his/her patience,
Is hal-fellow of the one who is in narrowness.

Garib, the giver,
[Garib] Comes as equal to the taker:
If the one who comes is from the one that is called "Islam,"
His/her heart comes as equal to her heart.
It is because of her equality to the taker.
Wherever you turn the electricity on, it makes that place clear [it illuminates that place].
I did not say about the giver, I said about the taker.
Her station is set up at the Islam Center,
She gives to there.
Even if the one whom you call as “Christian” comes too,
What she will give is the same.
However, the one who takes falls in doubt.
Whatever HE does, My Allah does [it] without mistake;
HE keeps HIS human away from doubt.

The one who knows Friday as path,
The one who adds heart to our path,
Is in reality the one who conforms to the going.

Goodbye.
Lailaheillallah Muhammedur Resulullah. [Allah is The only One to be worshiped, and Mohammad is HIS Representative.]

4 April 1974

I am Mevlana.
Our nest is open to hearts;
The one who wishes comes, the one who comes takes according to his/her wish.
Our giving neither decreases nor divides;
As much as we give, it gets branches.
Let greeting be to all of you.
Let the greeting come from HAK,
Let it find the one who says, “HAK.”
Let all [humans] have rose according to their hearts,
Let them branch out according to HIS rose.
Let each one of their branches blossom.
We are the giver of The Giver, we are the gatherer of the one who sees. [vision==to see HIM in HIS creations]
Eyvallah.

We came with HIS Name, we found with HIS remembrance.
We embraced as much as we could embrace,
We whirled in order to find [HIM],
We loved as much as we could be full.
Let the one who does not take become one of the ones who take.
Let our word be given to the coming day.
Let our chat be said also when tomorrow comes,
However, let it also be given to the writing. [let our past chats be discussed about [verbally], while we continue to give the new chats in writing…]

The one who opens through heart, [the one who opens his/her heart gate]
Does not lose HIS earth, does not stay away from HIS summit.
Why does he/she not lose HIS earth?
Because The Giver gives directly to the heart,
Neither does HE seek on earth, nor does HE ask from the summit.

The one who wishes to respect, how does he/she measure the respect?
Give respect not to wandering around, but to reflecting [thinking deeply].
Conform to every hal.
Salvation is seen in conformity.
No fault occurs in the interpretation of the one who knows his/her place.
If human walks in the name of HAK, he/she does not act wrongly in respect.
Respect is not "to bend the knee and to bow:"
It is to know that one’s own share is equal to the rightful due of each human.
Not to respect one’s own share and to donate [it] to someone else,
Is to act wrongly toward one’s own respect.
My Allah did not act defectively in The Giving of HIS each human;
It is necessary that HIS human, him/herself included,
Stays away from defect.

I leaned the cane [against the wall],
I opened my [dervish] post that I set up, to all [humans],
I stood in the middle,
He said, my Yunus came.
Let hearts be equal [? partner ?],
Let beautiful ones be dream,
Let your day be summit,
Let your rose be pleased.
While your water flows, while all of you gather,
Let the ones who come increase.
Let blessing of HAK cover all of you,
He said, he walked on the soft path.

There is helper of the one who conforms to sun, who knows the shade.
[sun==Prophet Mohammad; tree that provides the shade==Mevlana's/Garib's congregation / ONEness of HEARTs' teachings]

If pedestrian conforms to the one who goes,
If he/she puts heart to HIS path,
Where is the place that he/she will go?
It is HAK’s door of course.

I came with greeting, I gave to all [humans];
Yunus Aleyhisselam Hazrat [Jonah]
Brought his greeting.
From [thanks to] HIS rose, path opened,
The universe was chosen on [that] day for [a] day like that.
From you, from me, from all [humans],
He brought [with him] heartful of greeting. [heartful==similar to armful]
He has been close
As much as the respect of the ones who respected,
As much as the love of the ones who loved.
On day, sin of all [humans] were erased,
Were divided into their good deed, he said, he gave his place to word.

Which fish is
The one that one does not have enough of admiring,
The one that is not chosen in the ocean? [the one that is not caught to be eaten?]
Is it not dolphin? [another meaning of the word "Yunus" [Jonah] in Turkish is "dolphin"]
Does it [he] not become guide of the one who confuses his/her path?
Does he not walk on HIS path together with the traveler?

Let my Allah be pleased with all of you.
Let hearts fill with the rose.
Let there be helper of the ones who go on HIS path,
Let there be helper of the ones who confuse their path.
Goodbye.
Lailaheillallah Muhammedur Resulullah. [Allah is The only One to be worshiped, and Mohammad is HIS Representative.]

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

LOVE, SEE & SHARE:

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