ONEness of HEARTs
VOLUME 3
Part 52

9 September 1977

I am Mevlana.
What we search
In the region of the days,
In the custom of the paths
Is what we comb together with all [humans].
We came with selam [greeting/peace],
We opened the page to all [humans].

“I came from path, to the one who knows,
To the one who conforms to beautiful hal,”
He said, my Yunus entered the word. [he joined the chat]
Say to the one who says,
“Do I roll up the patch,
Do I open [straighten] the curved,
Do I run away from smoke?”:
Let you conform to The One That you know,
Let you be satiated with Beauty,
Let you consider each one that happens, as written [by HIM].
We came with selam,
We erased the shadow.

The one who stays under the sun in desert,
The one who takes light from the sun,
Takes of course his/her interrogation from the desert,
At the place where he/she takes, he/she finds.

It progresses
As The One Who writes, writes,
Not as HIS human solves.

My word is to the one who says,
“Let us look at the one that opens,
Let us pour the water that is in hand, to the lake”:
Lake nourishes itself;
Let the water that is in hand stay with you.
Let the one who wishes
Take from the place that he/she wishes.

Do not search witness
For what your water gives,
For your laugh at event.

Do not interpret what is seen in wideness
As separation.

The one who searches cause
Resembles the one who fills the basket with water.
Of course there is cause of each event;
However, human's measure of view is narrow to solve.

Our being is measure for The One Who exists,
Our love [is measure] for The One Who is Darling.

Even though cause is present
In earth's coming into being,
In the taking of each human,
Let us take as much [spiritually] mature as one is,
Let us conform as much as we know.

Life does not enter [fit] the jug.

Let us say, “Darling,”
Let us know that the chat is then correct.

“I opened door to the one who enters,
I gave mirror to the one who sees,
Let us give land to the one who plows,”
He said, Pir Sultan Abdal came.
I searched thorn on mountain.
I found the order [orderliness] when I came to my senses.
Neither did I complain about the one that got out, [I did not complain about the thorn that I took out]
Nor did I criticize the one who pulled back his/her hand [to protect from thorn].
“If you were [hand] in hand, [if you held hand in hand]
You would laugh in word.
If you said with saz, [saz== a stringed musical instrument]
They would remember your worry,
They would present you your path,”
They said.
Neither did they look at what I saw
Nor did they take from what I heard
Nor did they know me
Nor did they conform to The Beautiful One.
Let my Allah make [them] conform,
Let [HIM] make The Beautiful One be found,
He said, he greeted the ones who attend the chat.
[? He said, he greeted the ones who mature [spiritually] at the chat. ?]

If I say,
“Let me give hand to the one who comes,
Let me give secret to the one who asks,
Let me give voice to the one who stops,” [let me call the one who stops]
[then] Hearts stay in One,
All [humans] become One of course,
He said, he walked.

Harmony in aim becomes true
With satiety in vision. [vision==to see HIM in HIS creations]

What human will give human is his/her word;
Yet what he/she will give with his/her word
Is his/her Essence.

Let us take hand from human,
Let us transfer from hearts to heart.

If
“I gave sherbet, he/she did not drink, [sherbet= sweetened fruit juice]
He/she did not choose The Beautiful One on the path,
He/she did not pass the narrow passage,”
Is said,
“Close friend’s hand did not come,
He/she did not find close friend’s hand,” I say.

Let my Allah be pleased with the one
Who knows the value,
Who conforms to Almighty,
Who asks saying, “What is my path?”

You love the mature one.
When it is unripe,
You praise [the ripe one].
In iron,
You search the right temperature [to work it].
[yet] In each event,
You are offended by what happened [without being patient, without waiting the rest of it].
You love the grape in vineyard.
If unripe grape is from the ones that are not loved,
You wait for the grape [to ripen].
If it is like that,
Why is the complaint about unripe grape?
It became unripe grape, it will ripen,
It gave grape, he/she will display [at the market],
It became wine, he/she will present.
The one who loves, will take what he/she loves.
Let one not say,
“Is what is unripe, loved?”
Let it be known that
Unripe grape is door to maturation too. [analogy with human's spiritual maturation...]

I am Mevlana.
Sea [is] yours,
Word [is] ours,
From earth to sky, HAK [is] yours.

What you took when coming [to earth] [i.e. HIS Light]
Is What you will bring on return [to after earth life].

In interpretation, we will give,
We will enter [introduce] with word.
If 'concrete evidence' is said:
If it is known that The One Who is lost, is in human, [if it is known that The One Whom human lost, is in human]
Then The One Who is searched would be found,
Then doubts would be erased.

“What is the one that you will give
To the one who does not know to take,
To the one who does not find his/her place?” is being said.
There is not the one who does not know to take
But the one who can not know [to take].
Each narrowness is benefit to [for] human
Because he/she finds what he/she can not know;
Thanks to what he/she finds,
He/she matures [spiritually].

Beauty is in loving
The one who knows
[as well as] The one who does not know,
[beauty is] In seeing each event in conformity. [beauty is in conforming [without any complaint] to each event [knowing that it is created/shown by HIM]]

To the one who knows because of the earth, because of the sky,
To the one who says, “YOU wrote my Allah,”
It is given from hand, from tongue,
When permission comes, it [? IT ?] is seen.

What Pir Sultan Abdal said,
What Hazrat Meryem [Virgin Mary] knew,
What saint Michel saw
Is neither being without path nor being without record [of sin].
Even though ‘being without record’ is
[occurs thanks to] What the one who knows, gives to the one who does not know,
It is also what the one who does not know, solves.
Let
The one who comes from each [different] path
Believe that he/she is in ONE[‘s] search.
In the heart that ties [that makes the connection]
There is ONEness.

Be entrusted to my Allah.
It is seen that Meryem [Virgin Mary] gives,
That she conforms to the new one.
All [humans] know
That she took without witness,
That HE gave her place [in after earth life].

‘Iron is worked at the right temperature’
We said.
The one who will give shape to iron that melts
Is the one who [? The One Who ?] will roll up his/her Essence.

Be entrusted to my Allah.

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

12 September 1977

I am Mevlana.
It is known
That spare does not mature [spiritually] [spare==human who is influenced by others / human who does not know how to think]
That he/she does not turn away from his/her original.
What is written is solved like that. [what is written==destiny]

When
“Let us solve the reality [? The Reality ?],
Let us find one’s [? HIS ?] place,”
Is said,
Then we become as if we do not take path from the new one,
[then we become] As we do not conform to the [HIS] order [system].

What is taken from wideness
Is the one that is erased from narrowness. [wideness==when one gets rid of earth load, he/she rises spiritually, the scope of his/her view becomes wider, as opposed to narrow view when he/she is spiritually not high...]

What one worries about
Is the one that is divided on the past day.
Let us connect the one that is divided,
Let our heart be pleased.
Let us know to come to our senses,
Let us see as beautiful [? Beautiful ?].

Green leaf, [green=LIGHT color of Prophet Mohammad; leaf==1. human, 2. member of Mevlana’s/Garib’s congregation]
Purple flower, [purple==purple color makes one reach HIS deep love]
Bug promenades on the flower. [flower==teachings of ONEness of HEARTs; bug==human who wishes for The Meaning]

Let
Whom/what we love
Whom/what we will love
Fill all [humans], [let our love cover all humans]
Let one open arms to the one who will come.

Satiety is fulfilled in conformity. [satisfaction occurs when one conforms to events]

When human sees The Beautiful One,
He/she rejoices.
Let us open the vision. [vision==to see HIM in HIS creations]

Let us sense different good deed
On each day.

Let us drive what we take
With what we know. [let us interpret each chat under the light of what we know from previous chats…]

If he/she comes as guest,
If he/she finds the [HIS] path,
If he/she ties his/her place to what comes [i.e. to our chats],
[then] He/she [saint] will give while his/her [guest's] mind is open,
The Reality will be solved like that.

When roaring [spiritual] water comes,
When all humans find,
[then] Of course arms are opened,
One passes through each path that is wished.
At the places where it flows,
River spreads its arms;
The one who takes from each arm
Conforms to its source.

Our writing is given from one hand. [? Our writing is given from one human. ?]
“From where do the ones who write, take?” is being said.
The one that gives path to sea, [the one that flows to sea [ocean/sea==God; flowing water runs to ocean; lake/well==religious fanatics, bigots...]]
The one who ties his/her source to the river.
We gave before:
“From one hand,” [? From one human, ?] [our chats are communicated to humans through Garib’s channel only]
We said.
Lakes, wells give too,
They serve the one who is thirsty;
However, they do not take to the ocean.
If
“Is it wrong?” is said,
It is in accordance with one’s current.

There is the one whom the arms will take,
Will give to the one who loves.
Be entrusted to my Allah.

Beyond effort, [there] is amazement.
“Know to come to your senses,” we said,
We gave before.

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

18 September 1977

I am Mevlana.
The one that does not come from ground,
Is the one that does not know rain. [the one that comes from ground does so thanks to the rain / there is crop if there is rain]
My Yunus says:
The one that comes from ‘mey’ [mey=wine; mey==spiritual wine]
Does not conform to the one that comes from ground.
The one who pleads
Does not fall in doubt.
The one that is put in wine glass will be drunk;
Nevertheless, difficult bridge will be passed.

We gave before:
There will be conformity
On the face of the child,
In the word of the beautiful one.
The beautiful one will find The Beautiful One,
Your [spiritual] washer will come to your help.
Let worry be erased.
Word does not end before putting point.
Leaf does not fall on ground before it is written.

Search blessing [rain] in cloud,
Disperse the smoke.
What is seen on the day is cloud,
Not smoke.
Let us erase the worry.
Let us know to come to our senses.

Peddler does not stay at his/her place.
There is never [a] definite place of his/hers.
The one who is turned-away does not unite
With the one who fills [with HIS deep love].

Tree with root
Does not let the one who leans on [it], fall.

If our nest is ‘meyhane,’ [meyhane=bar/restaurant like public place in 14th century where wine was served]
HIS human who comes to drink
Takes of course what he/she wishes.
With the ‘mey’ that he/she takes, [mey=wine; mey==spiritual wine]
He/she knows the drunkenness.


Beautiful day knows its shadow, [shadow of the cloud]
Blessing is seen in rain.

Wool ball does not stay halfway, [wool ball==lifetime on earth] [lifetime on earth is not interrupted]
The one who takes duty
Does not turn his/her direction.

Let our love be to [for] Darlings.

Without eating, you can not pass to the new one. [without digesting our chats you can not perceive The Meaning]
Let you say,
“I love what I eat,
I praise my Allah’s blessing.”

There is no place for curiosity.

The problem of the one who is in dormitory
Is because of the sound [noise].
[the problem] Of the one who is in rain
[is] Because of the mud.
Yet
Neither does one stay without sound
Nor is the giving of the soil known without mud.

Want every existing one that you wish to take
From my Allah.
Gani says:
The One Who gives is
Neither your mother
Nor your father.
What will come [is] from HAK only.
Whatever you wish
Wish to HIM.
First thank HIM,
Then thank the one whom HE uses as intermediary.


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.
