SHELLS AND LOVE…
My Aziz(reverend) Brother…
I was in the platos of the mountain of Hasan 10 days ago.
I stayed 20 days there.
I reached to the peak point (3268mts high)
I saw a snail which had left it’s shell and I showed it to my group members…
Some carries his shell on his back as Turtle does. He/She is a slave of the sight(Zaheer).
Some leaves his shell occasionaly,and leaves behind a TRAIL made of his tears, and returns home by following his trail.
Some is like a snake, changes his skin every year parallel to his progress in this life(betterment, Kamalat)..
And some are shell-less and skinless like a naked soul in this world..
There is INNER,If there is OUTER..
INTERsection is MIND(’AQL).
LOVE…
Just as a Turtle,
Connected to it’s shell, LOVE is
Thing within the THING, Oh beLOVEd…
Within the “WE [1]” of Snail
It’s shell is in the Love trail
The drop is in the sea of Love
Every year snake removes its’ skin
Love dyes fresh its’ skin
Hears the sound of Subhanallah [2]
Confirms to the Secret of Sibgatullah [3]
There is no “Ser-u-seri [4]” like US(WE)
Having no Forward-no Backward
Having no Shell-no Skin
It is known –there is no likeness of it
Reason
Forever
End- Ending
None
No

GLOSSARY
[1] WE:
If a person has Divine Knowledge and Muhammadi Manner/Moral(adab), He/She is ‘WE’…
If He/She is reached in Divine Wisdom and Muhammadi Erkan as well, then He/She is ‘ONE’…”
The drop reaching the real Muhammadi Consciousness submits it’s self to the SEA, the direction(istiqamat) is passed to “WE”. Those phases require time, patience and heart(courage).
“If you are indistinct and unknown You are ‘WE’…”
“In the desert, first look is the first step.
First look is the first plugging in to the socket in your heart.
It is to be “WE” and “ONE” with the powerhouse…
Read and understand this well!..”
“The string of the ones who are lined up on a tasbeeh is in the hand of Imamiyya[head bead].
We become like the tasbeeh beads meeting on the string of Imamiyya,
Then the string of Tawheed( the Unity, the Oneness) passes through our hearts and it becomes a path of Haqq(The TRUTH).”
We are like the water glass, let everyone drink the love from ‘US/WE’ on behalf of SallALLAHU Alaihi Wassallam! …
The SOUL is ONE within US(WE), it is thought to be two, AMAZING!..

[2] Subhanallah: The direct literal meaning of the phrase is God is void…Subhanallah is to make Tasbih. Tasbih is to declare that Allah is pure of any blemishes in His Essence(Dhat), Qualities/Attributes(Siffat) and Works(Af’al. Tasbih is a form of dhikr that involves the repetitive utterances of short sentences glorifying God, in Islam.
For instance in the Qur’AN:
“
سُبْحَانَ اللّٰهِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ
SubhanAllahi ammaa yasifoon :
Glory to God! (He is free)
From the things they ascribe (Qur’AN- [37/159])
“
أَمْ لَهُمْ إِلَهٌ غَيْرُ اللَّهِ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ
SubhanAllah ammaa yushrikoon :
Or have they a god Other than ALLAH?
Exalted is ALLAH Far above the things
They associate with Him! (Qur’AN-[52/43])
[3] Sibgatullah:
This is to be perceived as being coloured with the qualities of Allah just as it is stated in Qur’an:
صِبْغَةَ اللّٰهِ وَمَنْ اَحْسَنُ مِنَ اللّٰهِ صِبْغَةً وَنَحْنُ لَهُ عَابِدُونَ
Şibghata Al-Lahi ۖ Wa Man ‘Aĥsanu Mina Al-Lahi Şibghatan ۖ Wa Naĥnu Lahu `Ābidūna : We take our colour from Allah, and who is better than Allah at colouring. We are His worshippers”. (Qur’AN -Al-Bakara [02/138])
[4] Ser-u-Seri: In Turkish Serseri means “Vagrant” but Ser-u-Seri used here comes from the verb “sermek” which means to spread out, to lay out. Ser-u-Seri is the one who spreads his head on the floor. This is to bow down(doing Sajda) in worship to ALLAH j.j. Kulihvani sometimes says “We are like a ball bearing. When we roll on the floor in worship, every side of us kisses the floor in sajda and every part of us is face…”
