THE FIRST TEACHING
Open and Receive
You only need to see that love and guidance are already present in every
moment for this to be your experience and your reality. If you find this love
and guidance difficult to perceive, then merely express your openness and
willingness to perceiving and receiving it. Also be willing to see yourself as
the divine being that you truly are—and you will be! That is the promise.
You can be what you truly are when you open to that possibility and are
willing to know yourself as that.
THE SECOND TEACHING
Acknowledge the Hand of Grace
To connect with your Source and the goodness and love at your core, it is
necessary to notice and acknowledge that the Divine is immanent and
operative in your life and in every life. You are deeply loved and guided in
every moment by that which created you and lives in you and through you.
If you do not see the truth of this, you will accept your mind’s conclusions
about life. These conclusions will not serve you.
THE THIRD TEACHING
Declare Your Deepest Desire
You and the spiritual forces that support your evolution will jointly bring
peace and love into your life when you declare that you want these things
more than anything else. Feel the depth and power of this desire and let it
fuel your will to give peace and love your attention.
THE FOURTH TEACHING
Accept Life as It Is
It is impossible to love or feel at peace unless you accept life as it is. Non
acceptance closes the heart, which is the doorway to love and peace. There
is no other way but acceptance to open that door. When you accept, peace
comes and love can flow once again. Listening to the mind ensures that the
heart will stay closed. If you take the mind’s perspective as yours, then you
Bu sözün anlamı ârif-i billah olan kişi heyûlâ
[3] gibidir demektir. Yani nasıl heyûlâ her sûreti kabul ettiği ve bütün sûretlere mahal
olduğu hâlde hadd-i zâtında kendisinde bir değişim ve başkalaşım meydana
gelmiyorsa ve her ne tür ve sûretle karşılaşırsa karşılaşsın yine kendi aslı
üzere bākî kalıyorsa ârif-i billah da her türlü inancı kabûl eder ve mecâzî
inançla kayıtlı olmaz. Hakîkat üzere olan inancında yine devam eder ve
sâbit kalır. Bununla birlikte diğer inançları toplar ve içerir. Bu inançların
tamamının aslına vâkıf olur. Bu konuda dâiresi çok geniş olduğu için mârûf
yani hakîkat her ne türlü elbise ve sûretle tecellî ederse etsin bundan gāfil
olmaz. Hakîkatin tek bir elbisesine kayıtlı kalmaz ve onu her yüzde
müşâhede eder.
Allah Teâlâ Mâide suresinin 35 ayetinde mealen
"Beni bulmak dilerseniz Beni bulmuş kullarım vardır onların eteğine tutunun.
Onlar size vesîle olurlar ve Bana ulaştırırlar"
