In short, the Seeker receives this Inwardly Electricity from his Mentor Murshid by means of the Inwardly Cable, that is, the interrelationship with the Shaikh and this Shaikh from his Shaikh and Mentor and his Shaikh form his Shaikh and this chain continues in sequence so much so that it ends in its original Headquarter and the real Powerhouse which is the blessed essence of the Holy Prophet of Allah Hazrat Muhammad Mustafa Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam. In this way, the cables of this Inwardly Electricity are interconnected and fixed in sequence with each other and all the Ahl-e-Allah (the People-of-Allah) are tied up with each other through this Noori Link and are attached with this same Selk and the Headquarter, Capital and the Powerhouse of all these Inwardly Electrical Cables is the blessed body of his highness the Overlord of Worlds the pride of beings Hazrat Muhammad Mustafa Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallamand his blessed auspicious essence which is the pool of the entire Beneficence from where all the Sufi lineages and links and all Inwardly Cables lead and end.

ABYAAT (COUPLETS) OF THE WRITER

Seeker of Sarwari QADIRI (SUFI) ORDER rider on those wonderful Burraaq,

That deliver them to the destination within a flash,

O heart! Sleep with pride on this electric carrier,

When you will open eyes, hundreds of destinations will have been covered,

When you are not aware of this Nukta of the Unseen, you should not cavil at it,

The Privy (and Insiders) not make such culprits sharers of their Secret,

This is a Jazba (mystique and emotion) about Haq which emanates from the bosoms of the chaste people,

You have not seen this quiver and quake yet!

In short when this Noori Child becomes living and sustaining inside the body of the Seeker through the Tawajuh of the Shaikh, then first of all, the Seeker achieves a sort of consciousness and wakefulness in dream. That is, when he sees the dream, he remains vigilant that this is dream which is being seen by him and this is the condition of a dream. This is a beginner condition of Muraqiba. At later stages, he progresses and enters and leaves the Inwardly Subtle Realm of the Dream at will along with due consciousness and receptivity. In earlier stages, the Seeker feels a sort of movement of life, shimmer and gravity. After a period, that Noori Child breaks the egg of Nasoot with the heat of the Name-Allah-the-Essence (Ism-e-Allah-Zaat) and comes out of the eggshell like a Bird of Lahoot with the order of Allah Almighty. This Subtlety of Qalb has Subtle Bulk of the Realm of Command (Aalim-e-Amar) and flies in the Realm of Spirituality and the Realm of Malakoot. When this Bird of Lahoot flies like the Phoenix of the Sacred Mount towards the atmosphere of the Realm of Unseen from the Realm of Witnessed, his first step is set out of the Realm of Water and Adobe, that is, the Shush-Jehaat. Miracles of all Holy Prophets and the Kashf and Karamaat of the entire Aulia-Allah and their Teer Sair (traveling and sightseeing on wings) of all terrestrial and extraterrestrial Stations are the upshots of this Noori Subtle Bulk. All the time a newer Occurrence of the Unseen and the Doubtless Quests is experienced by this Noori Bulk. The heart of that Saalik who has this Noori Bulk becomes about filled with such novel Inwardly Sciences and Unseen Meanings and unusual (Advanced level) Learning and mysteries which are never found in books nor can be brought in the frame and scope of the speech or text!

Such a Noori Bulk all the time remains busy in Zikr, Fikr, Assalaat, Recitation, Worship and Obedience in dream, Muraqiba and Wakefulness. These are its power and nutrition. This Noor Bulk remains all the times present in the Majlis of the Holy Prophets and Aulia-Allah but the tyro Seeker sometimes feels his Bulk and sometimes unaware of this. In case the Seeker intends for a sin, that Noori Bulk bars and reacts with severe Muhaasba and browbeat (and admonition). In case a sin is done incidentally, that Bulk brings so much repentance, remorse, ache and pain that the Seeker burns the body of the sin through penitence and Istaghfaar and wailing and crying and weeping. That Noori Bulk is observed in the form of Shaikh at the Station of Irshaad and in the form of Seeker at the Station of Talb (Demand). However, its real face is a third form which is blend of the forms of the Shaikh and the Seeker. It is seen in its real form very rarely same as a person sees his own face occasionally but others' faces are seen most of the time. This Subtlety is called 'Fanaa-Fi-Shaikh' (Destroyed in Shaikh). The more Kaamil the Shaikh is and if more is the Seeker the Master of Capacity, the more powerful, potent, the Master of Jamaal and the Master of Perfection will be this Noori Inwardly Bulk of the Seeker. Hence, when this Noori Bulk of the Seeker becomes matured after growing up and raised with the instruction and feed of the Shaikh, it then is granted the Martaba of Irshaad and in him comes the ability of turning the hearts of other Seekers Alive. At this time, he receives the order and permission from the Sanctuary (Court) of Allah Almighty and the Hazoor of the Prophet of Allah Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam and the Mentor Shaikh for issuing the Talqeen and Irshaad to the creation of Allah and benefitting them and he enriches the hearts of the creation with the Inwardly Beneficence under the command of Allah Almighty. No matter if people acknowledge this or not.

There are many Truthful Single-Minded slaves of Allah dispense Beneficence to the people but do not disclose themselves.

(O Muhammad) Say: I ask of you no reward for this (25:57)
