TRANSLATION OF THE CHAT/MESSAGE RECEIVED BY GARIB ON 9 JULY 2010

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

BISMILLAHIRAHMANIRAHIM [IN THE NAME OF ALLAH, THE MOST MERCIFUL, THE MOST COMPASSIONATE]

Our vineyard, our garden,
Our mountains, our plains,
Our seas, our skies
Come into being, with us,
[they] Meet us,
[they] Chat with us;
They share with us
Everything that exists.

If we planted our crops,
HE gives HIS rain [blessing] abundantly,
Human takes in his/her hand
The being of his/her work.
You can not say, “Yours, mine,”
You can not become partner in anybody’s property,
Even if you become, you can not see.

Mevlana said:
There are tens of workers
Of each morsel that you eat. [each morsel comes to you thanks to the work of many workers…]
Maybe the budget of the worker is tight.
We were born, we grew up while hand [was] in their hand,
We found ourselves [we came to our senses] on our homeland.

Yunus said:
HIM, HE is The Owner of everyone whom/that HE created,
HIM, HE is The Possessor of everyone whom/that HE created.
HE does not separate HIMSELF from the one whom/that HE created,
With HIS love, HE does not favor anyone [over anyone else].

Hadji Bektas [is] at our table.
He saw your work,
He asked [about] your crop.
“You had the bread,
You ate our food gladly,” he said,
He shared his love.
In ONEness of HEARTs, there is
Neither discrimination
Nor favoring [one over another];
There is only ‘coming willingly.’ [? There is only invitation. ?]

Meryem [Virgin Mary] and Fatima
Came to our table.
They said,
“What happiness!
Angels rejoiced
For the abundance of your loves.”

Fatima said:
Every smell is beautiful,
Yet I love the rose.
Humans are beautiful,
I love you.
Hearts are beautiful,
I praise you.
Our path, our paths are open;
I wish that your hearts are open.

Hazrat Ali said:
There is one lamentation, one advice of each day.
Its lamentation are the ones
Who do not search The Reality,
Who can not find the path of Hak.
Our advice is that:
Know that The One Who is remedy for your trouble
Is The Creator.

Hodja Ahmet Yesevi said:
All four sides of the earth
Are [full of] the ones who think that The Reality is faraway.
Yet The Reality is near every human;
HE is in his/her mind, in his/her heart,
In his/her eye, in his/her hand.
Each subject that will be remedy for trouble
Is in his/her tongue:
Our pleading becomes valid.
Human knows WHAT is in him/herself.

Hadji Bayram greets by blinking his eye.
He says word with [while using his] mind.
He unties the knot of the one
Who asks for help from him.
Without saying, “Like this, like that,”
Do not change the subjects.
Do not knock over the sapling
Of the ones who tell the truth.
Life, Darling, they come together,
They chat in the name of Hak.
They share what they take from Hak.

Neither the one that we gave in the past,
Nor the one that we ask on your day,
Nor the one that we interpret in the one that comes
Can not be different from one another.
Nobody can solve the real science
Unless my Rab wants.

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.
