Reflection: Who will be present at the Darbars?

Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim
In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.

 

Ya Ali Madad. On the occasion any darbar our beloved NOOR Mowlana Hazar Imam, let us reflect on the following question:

 

Who is present at a Darbar of Noor Mowlana Hazar Imam?

The short answer to the above question is: 'everybody'. I will now justify this answer based on the concept of Aalm-Dharr (The world of spiritual particles).

 

The Cycle of Subtle and Dense Forms of Human Beings

In the following paragraph I have first presented the Gujrati transliterated text of an excerpt of a firman of Noor Mowlana Sultan Muhammad Shah (a.s.):

"Have khiyal karo ke tamaru(n) asal shu(n) chhe? Koi kahe ke maru(n) asal Aadam thi chhe; to Aadam thi tamara jism thaya chhe, pa(n) teni pahela tamaru(n) asal "aalm zare" arthat zina rajkan jeva (zara) parantu te zara tame "aalme zare" na vakhat thi thaya chho, pa(n) teni pahela shu(n) hata? zara thi pa(n) zina (la) aarthat nirakar kahevay chhe te hata. Ane tyathi tamo utarta utarta a manushay dehima bandhana." (Transliterated by Alwaez Rai Amiraly Amlani)
 
The translation is:
"Now you should think about your origin, i.e., where is your original abode? Some say that my origin is from Adam; your body is created from Adam but before this your origin was in aalm-i dharr (the world of spiritual particles). In that world, you were in the form of tiny dust-like spiritual particles, but before that you were in even finer spiritual particles than dharr which can be described as being formless in the World of Oneness (nirakar). From that place you have descended in a step wise manner into this human form."
 
(Mombasa 10-11-1905; p. 41)

What is Alam-i Dharr?

"Alam-i Dharr means the world of spiritual particles, which means the particles of the souls. It can be seen only after the eye of the heart opens, therefore, everybody cannot see it."
(Source: What is Soul?, p. 64)
"In the world of spiritual particles (alam-i dharr), not only do the people of all times exist in form of spiritual particles, but also each and everything of the universe and existents."
(Source: What is Soul?, p. 61)

What is the Relationship between Imam-i Mubin and the World of Spiritual Particles?

"The world of spiritual particles works throughout time by dwelling in the blessed personaility of the Holy Imam. In reality, the world of spiritual particles is the world of souls and angels, because in the example of Hazrat Adam there were souls as well as angels. Their collective name is light or the Supreme Soul or nafs-i wahidah, in which are gathered all souls. In fact all things of the universe and the existents are there for there is nothing without mercy (rahmat) and knowledge (ilm, 40:7). Allah has encompassed everything in the exalted personality of the Imam-i mubin (36:12) and therefore the world of particles cannot be excluded from this Divine law."
(Source: Psalms of Lovers, p. 61)

What are our teachings about a Single Soul (Nafs-i Wahida)?

In addition to belonging to the human race, we are in a Single Soul through the mechanism of Alam-i dharr (the World of Spiritual Particles) because the alam-i dhar dwells in the spirituality and luminosity of our Holy Imam. Therefore, in addition to the murids who will be physically present at the four Darbars next week, the global Jamat, humanity at large and all souls will also be present at these occasions. These grand events of the Golden Jubilee will be witnessed by all people, consciously or unconsciously, and by all souls. If we nurture the spiritual bond with our beloved Imam, we will also experience the peace and rays of Light when NOOR Mowlana Hazar Imam remembers us at these Darbars even though we may not be physically present at these events.

 

Angelic Salwat
Let us recite angelic salwats to invoke Divine grace and mercy.

Global Prayers and Three Grand Aspirations
Through the barakat of spiritual knowledge, tasbis and angelic salwat by many individuals of the global Jamat, O Noor Mowlana Hazar Imam, bless the global Jamat with:

  1. Spiritual and luminous tayid (help) to advance materially, spiritually and intellectually;
  2. Sunshine in our spiritual hearts and actualization of the inner vision of the Truth;
  3. Empowerment to present a Material Nazrana of time, knowledge and financial resources;
  4. Empowerment to present a Spiritual Nazrana in the form of a pure heart which is in a state of constant dhikr; and
  5. Empowerment to present a Luminous Nazrana in the form of a sound heart (qalb-i salim) which is in a state of constant dhikr and enlightenment.
