Introduction - to Spiritual Letter 66

Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim. In the name of God, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate. Al-salam 'alaykum wa-rahmat Allah wa-barakatuhu kulluhu. Wa 'alaykum al-salam wa-rahmat Allah wa-barakatuhu kulluhu.  May all the peace, the beneficence, and the blessing of God be upon us all.  May God help us all.

My love you (anbu), my dearest loving brothers and sisters - Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler).

Here is Page 3 of 5 of a beautiful letter to a High School Classmate of this child, a
Mr. Ellis Thomas, who has recently demonstrated very strong faith and trust in God, and who is currently going through a situation in his life that allows him to be an example to all of us of his Iman, of his absolute, unshakable faith, certitude, and determination in God, in the truth that "Only God exists" within us, and in the truth that "God is One" within us.  Amen.

As always, this letter was written by this child sitting at the feet of God for our age, at the feet of our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) within us, and of His Children (may God be pleased with each of Us) on the "outside" of us, and is respectfully and humbly shared with each of you at this time.  Amen.

Introduction - to Page 3 of Spiritual Letter 66
          Which consist of comments sent to Mr. Ellis Thomas about the new Page 3 of
          this Spiritual Letter, about the two beautiful discourses that came to all of us, from
          God within us, from within the heart of this child, while this child was preparing to
          send Mr. Thomas page 3 of the original letter, coming as a "beautiful interruption"
          from God within us all, to what we thought we were doing, an "interruption from
          God" within us, which is most certainly the "Way of The Lord" within us, that
          "John The Baptist" told us to "Make Straight" within ourselves

A.  Discourse 01 - "And The Truth Shall Make You Free"
          A beautiful discourse from God within us all, to all of us living in this age, given to
          this child, at this point in this letter, about the great problem faced by all of us in
          our age, which is the subtle "Sin of Righteousness"

                                                                                                    - go to Next Page of "Outline"
A. Discourse 01 - continued
          The subtle "Sin of Righteousness", a sin that we have all fallen into in our age, as
          members of all of the great religions of the world in our age, for example, as
          members of the religions of Christianity, of Islam, of Judaism, of Hinduism, and of
          Zoroastrianism

B.  Discourse 02 - "Bear Not Witness of Ourselves, But Only of God Within Us"
          Another beautiful discourse from God within us all, to all of us living in this age,
          given to this child, at this point in this letter, about the "Choice" that each of us
          must make before we physically die to the "outside" of us, if we are to truly
          become successful in our own lifetime, which is to use our life to "Bear Witness"
          to either "Ourselves or God", that is, to decide between either becoming again
          "One with" God within us, but this time with an understanding of that "Oneness"
          so it will never leave us again, or of continuing to live on the "outside" of "us"
          as if we were "separate from" God within us, living as if we truly had our own life
          "separate from" God within us, until we die, and then after we die to "harvest the
          crop we have grown" and "move into the house that we have built", and about the
          "major obstacle" standing between "us", and "us" making the correct choice, and
          "us" sowing the good crop, and "us" building the proper house, before we die to
          the flesh, the "major obstacle" which is our ego, which is our "bearing witness of
          myself", and which is our current life of sin, of "separation and differences" on the
          "outside" of us, which is our receiving honor one of another", as Jesus (peace be
          upon Him) warned us about, and told us not to do, over 2000 years ago.

                                                                                                    - go to Next Page of "Outline"
B.  Discourse 02 - continued
          As Jesus (peace be upon Him) told us not to do, as recorded by the 13th disciple
          of Jesus (peace be upon Him), by the "One loved by Jesus", by the One told by
          Jesus (peace be upon Him) to "Tarry till I Come".  That is, Jesus (peace be upon
          Him) told the disciple Barnabus (peace be upon Him) to "Stay alive in the world for
          another 600 years" until Jesus (peace be upon Him) came again, to finish what
          He started, that is, to "Take away the sin of the world", to "Make straight the way
          of the Lord", which is to "separate from" man all that "separates man" from God,
          coming this time as the Prophet Muhammad (blessing and peace be upon Him).
          As recorded by the first and the last disciple of Jesus (peace be upon Him), by
          the disciple Barnabus (peace be upon Him), over 2000 years ago, and as
          recorded now by this child in this letter.

                                                                                                    - go to "Text of Spiritual Letter"
B. Discourse 02 - continued
          For example, as recorded by the disciple Barnabus (peace be upon Him) in the
          "Gospel of John", in Chapter 05, verses 31 and 44, recorded as the "major
          obstacle" standing between "us" within us and God within us, which is our ego,
          standing between "us" within us and living again as "One with" God within us,
          standing between God within us and the Creation of God within us, preventing
          both from coming to completion within us, as the "Oneness of God and True Man"
          within us, and doing all of this, at least truly starting it by truly joining in
          partnership with God within us, by accepting and becoming "One with" the "Gift of
          God" for our age, and doing this before "we" die to the flesh, before we physically
          die to the "outside" of us, and in this way, removing in our own lifetime what is
          currently standing between "us", and "us" becoming the "Witness of God" within
          us, and the "Witness of what God is doing" within us, which is God revealing God
          to God within us, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us.  Amen
          Quotation from the "Gospel of John" - Chapter 5, Verses 30 and 31
          Quotation from the "Gospel of John" - Chapter 5, Verses 43 and 44
          Quotation from the "Gospel of John" - Chapter 5, Verses 19 to 24

Introduction - to Page 3 of Spiritual Letter

Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim. In the name of God, the Most Merciful, the Most
Compassionate.  Al-salam 'alaykum wa-rahmat Allah wa-barakatuhu kulluhu. Wa
'alaykum al-salam wa-rahmat Allah wa-barakatuhu kulluhu. May all the peace, the
beneficence, and the blessing of God be upon us all.  May God help us all.

My love you (anbu), my dearest loving brother Ellis Thomas - Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen
(Louie Beutler).

In the process of sending you Page 3 of 4 of "Spiritual Letter 66" two new beautiful discourses, from God within us all, came into the heart of this child, for "us", for you and this child, for all of the Children of God for this age, if we only truly want it, if we only truly want to again become "One with" God within us, before we die to the flesh, before we die to the "outside" of  us, but this time with an understanding of our "Oneness" so it will never leave us again.

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. All praise and praising belong to God, and to God alone.
Only God is Great. Amen.

Therefore, we have included these two new beautiful discourses from God within us all, as the new Page 3 of this letter, instead of the original Page 3 of this letter, and then we have made the original Page 3 of this letter into Page 4 of this letter, and Page 4 into Page 5, and in this way, we have now made "Spiritual Letter 66" into 5 pages.  So, the rest of the original letter to you, of Spiritual Letter 66, will start up again as Page 4 of 5 of this letter. 

And please be patient with this adjustment, my dearest loving brother Ellis, because such is the nature of God within us, and of our life when we join in partnership with Him within us, when we start to again live as "One with" God within us, rather than as "separate from" God within us, on the "outside" of us, as is our current life of sin, our current life of "selfishness" on the "outside" of us. 

May all the peace, the beneficence, and the blessing of God be upon us all.  May God help us all.  Amen.

My love you (anbu), my dearest loving brother Ellis - Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler).

A.  Discourse 01 - "And The Truth Shall Make You Free"

(Note:  this first discourse from God within us all, to all of us, is so important that it was made into the next Spiritual Letter, which you can access by clicking on the following: Spiritual Letter 67, "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" (www.SpiritualLetter067.homestead.com), which provides us with a beautiful explanation of the "Gift of God" for our age, of the life and teaching of our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) within us, and of God within Him, and presenting them in the context of the life and teaching of Jesus (peace be upon Him), on the "outside" of us, and of God within Him, over 2000 years ago.  Amen)

Summary of Discourse 01:

Discourse 01 is about the great problem facing all of us in our age, my dearest loving brother Ellis, which  is the subtle "Sin of Righteousness" that we have all fallen into in our age, as members of all of the great religions of the world in our age, as members of Christianity, of Islam, of Judaism, of Hinduism, and of Zoroastrianism, a subtle sin of
seduction that Jesus (peace be upon Him) warned us about, but could not help us with then, in the age of Jesus (peace be upon Him), because only now in our age, at this point in the story of the "Oneness of God and True Man" within each of us, can we be cured of this subtle "Sin of Righteousness", if we will only find, accept, realize, and join as "One with" the "Gift of God" for our age, that Jesus (peace be upon Him) told us about, over 2000 years ago, and that Jesus (peace be upon Him) has now personally
sent to each of us living in this age, as the Children of God for this age, if we only truly want it..

Text of Discourse 01:

Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim. In the name of God, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate. Al-salam 'alaykum wa-rahmat Allah wa-barakatuhu kulluhu. Wa 'alaykum al-salam wa-rahmat Allah wa-barakatuhu kulluhu. May all the peace, the beneficence, and the blessing of God be upon us all. May God help us all.

My love you (anbu), my dearest loving brother Ellis - Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler).

Here is Page 3 of 5 of this beautiful letter to "us", to all of us, to "us" from God within all of us, that is, from God within all of us, to His Children for this age, including this child, and you my dearest loving brother Ellis, and all of our dearest and loving family and friends.

That is, a "Gift from God" to all of the dearest and loving Children of God for our age, which is everyone of us living in this age, if we truly want it, that is, if we truly want to again become "One with" God within us, before we physically die to the "outside" of us.

For if we don't truly want this, if this is not the true intention of our life, then something terrible has happened to us, since we originally come from God and were originally make in His Image, and since originally we were "One with" God in the "world of soul" within us, before coming to this earth world within us, to the first of "God's Schools" within us, to the "School of Contrasts" within us.

Then somehow we have become "separated from" God within us, somehow we have become "separated from" each other, somehow we have  "separated from" the Creation of God, somehow we have been seduced, somehow we have become caught by what is "separate from" God within us, and by what is "separate from" each of us, and "separate from" the Creation of God, and we have now become "one with" this, rather than staying "One with" God within us, as we originally were, and such is our current state, not the original state of purity, and wisdom, and beauty that we were first in, through God's effort on our behalf.

So if we don't want to again become "One with" God within us, before we die, then something terrible and very subtle has happened to us, which we must realize, understand, and correct, or as Jesus (peace be upon Him) warned us, over 2000 years ago, we will never see God again, we will never see Jesus again (peace be upon Him).

Quotation From The "Gospel of John" - Chapter 16, verse 10

And this is why Jesus (peace be upon Him) told us over 2000 years ago, as recorded in Chapter 16, verse 10, of the "Gospel of John",

          "Of Righteousness, because I go to My Father, and ye see Me no more."

So if we don't correct this subtle fault, this "Sin of Righteousness", both within us and on the "outside" of us, that in our ignorance each of us in our age have fallen into, then we are doomed to "never" see God or Jesus again (peace be upon Him).

The subtle "Sin of Righteousness" that each of us in all of the religions of the world have fallen into, including the religions of Christianity, Islam, Judaism, as well as the earlier religions of Hinduism and Zoroastrianism.

(Note: Zoroastrianism is a Persian religion founded in the 6th century B.C. by the prophet Zoroaster, promulgated in the Avesta, and characterized by worship of a supreme god Ahura Mazda who requires good deeds for help in his cosmic struggle against the evil spirit Ahriman)

The subtle "Sin of Righteousness" that Jesus (peace be upon Him) started to tell us about over 2000 years ago, but that He could not tell us about at that time, because we "could not bear" to hear about it then.

                                                                                                                                  - go to outline
Quotation From The "Gospel of John" - Chapter 16, verse 12

For as Jesus (peace be upon Him) told us over 2000 years ago, as recorded in
Chapter 16, verse 12, of the "Gospel of John",

          "I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now."

Such is the great problem of all of us in our age, my dearest loving brother Ellis, the subtle "Sin of Righteousness" that we have all fallen into in our age, as members of all of the great religions of the world in our age, as members of Christianity, of Islam, of Judaism, of Hinduism, and of Zoroastrianism, a subtle sin of seduction that Jesus (peace be upon Him) warned us about, but could not help us with then, in the age of Jesus (peace be upon Him).

Because now only in our age, at this point in the story of the "Oneness of God and True Man" within each of us, can we be cured, through our "Oneness with" God within us, of this subtle "Sin of Righteousness", if we will only find, accept, realize, and join as "One with" the "Gift of God" for our age, that Jesus (peace be upon Him) told us about, over 2000 years ago.

And that Jesus (peace be upon Him), and God within Him, has now personally sent to us in our age, to each of us living in this age, to the Children of God for this age, if we only want it, and learn to properly use it, if we learn how to do "nothing properly".  Amen.

Quotation from the "Gospel of John" - Chapter 16, Verses 7 to 15

For as Jesus (peace be upon Him) told us over 2000 years ago, as recorded in
Chapter 16, verses 7 to 15, of the "Gospel of John",

----- beginning of quote from "Gospel of John", Chapter 16, Verses 7 to 15 -----

"Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not
away, the "Comforter" will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send Him unto you.

And when He come, He will reprove the world of sin, and (the world) of
righteousness, and (the world) of judgment:

          1)  (Reproving the world) of sin, because they believe not on Me;
          2)  (Reproving The world) of righteousness, because I go to My Father, and ye
                    see Me no more;
          3)  (And reproving the world) of judgment, because the prince of this world (of
                    darkness) is judged.

I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, He will guide you into all truth: for He shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He speak: and He will shew you things to come.

He shall glorify Me: for He shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you. All things that the Father hath are Mine: therefore said I, that He shall take of Mine, and shall shew it unto you"

----- end of quotation from "Gospel of John", Chapter 16, Verses 7 to 15 -----

And such is the "Gift of God" for our age, my dearest loving brother Ellis, the Gift of the "Comforter" that Jesus (peace be upon Him) promised to send us, over 2000 years ago, and that now Jesus (peace be upon Him), and God within Him, has now personally sent to each of us living in this age, if we only want it, if we will only realize it, understand it, accept it, and use it, by joining as "One with" God with it, and in this way, learn about the things that Jesus (peace be upon Him) could not yet teach us about before, because we "could not bear" to hear them.

But now we can hear them, now we can bear them, and what Jesus (peace be upon Him) couldn't tell us then, in His age, because we were not ready, the "Comforter" the "Spirit of Truth" can tell us now, in our age, because now we are ready, can now tell us that God is "Oneness", that Man is "Oneness", and that God and Man are "One", that in truth God and Man are the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, the "Oneness", that when we realize, understand, accept, and join as "One" with that "Oneness" hidden by God within us, then allows the story of that, of the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, to be told by God within us, and we germinate, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us.

Which is like when the apple seed buried within the earth, which in truth is the "oneness" of the apple tree and the apple" hidden within it, realizes, understands, accepts, and joins as "one" with that "oneness" within it, allowing the story of the "oneness of the apple tree and the apple" to be told within it, and it germinates, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God, which we look at in our ignorance and call an apple tree, and happily eat its fruits, but which in truth is the finger of God pointing to the "truth of us", and to the "truth of God" within us, and to what each of us must truly do with out life, before we die to the "outside" of us, if we too are to become truly successful in our own lifetime, which is the true gift of the apple tree and its fruits, because then, if we do at least that much, at least as much as an apple seed, then God will do everything else.  Amen.

In this way, realizing that in truth we are the "Seed of God" buried within the Creation of God within us, and that God within us is the "Seed of True Man" hidden by God within the "Seed of God" buried within the Creation of God within us, and in this way, we are "God happening" within the Creation of God within us, and God within us is "True Man happening" within "God happening" within the Creation of God within us, within the "Earth of God' within us. And as such we are "One', each of "us" within us, and God within us, and True Man within God within us, are "One" within us.  Amen.

And such is the "truth of us", and the "truth of God" within us, and the "truth of True Man" within God within us, if we will only accept this "Gift of God" for our age as coming from God within us, as coming from Jesus (peace be upon Him) within us, and from God within Jesus (peace be upon Him) within us, and not get stuck just on the "outside" of us, not get "stuck in our past", or stuck "in our present", or stuck "in our future", just on the "outside" of us, but also open ourselves up to what God has hidden within us, to show to us, when we are ready, just like He shows the apple seed what is hidden within it, when it is ready, because God can do anything, and God can come to us in any way that He wants, to teach us, to love us, to make us successful in our own lifetime, both then and now, like coming to us then, over 2000 years ago, as Jesus (peace be upon Him) on the "outside" of us, and coming to us now, in our age, as Jesus (peace be upon Him) within us, and as God within Him.

And in this way, we must not only believe in what Jesus (peace be upon Him) told us over 2000 years ago on the "outside", in His age, but also believe in what Jesus (peace be upon Him) is telling us right now, in our age, both within us and on the "outside" of us, and then our life will be truly successful in our lifetime.

And in this way, believe also in what Jesus (peace be upon Him) is telling us now, in our age, through the life and teaching of God for our age, through the life and teaching of our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), and now through His Children, through the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with each of Us), and now through this child and through this beautiful letter from God within all of us, to all of us, my dearest loving brother Ellis.

For just like the apple seed, the apple tree, and the apple fruit are in truth One, so are we, so God, and True Man, and each of us are in truth "One", if we only want it, as you and this child, and this child and you, are "One", my dearest loving brother Ellis, if we
only want it.  Amen. 

The choice is truly ours, not God's.  May we both choose for it to be "One", and then God will truly do everything else, to make it so, both within us and on the "outside" of us.  Amen.

And as such, we must start to live as "One", we must start to pray to God as "One", and we must start to come together to pray to God as "One", no longer living, or praying, or coming together as "separate from" God, or as "separate from" each other, or even as "separate from" the Creation of God within us, that God has both personally and ever so lovingly placed within each of us, as the "Earth of God", as what the "Seed of God" within us must be planted within, by God within us, when we are truly ready, when we truly want it, when we truly want to become "One with" God within us, before die to the "outside" of us, and now, in this age, as we weren't over 2000 years ago,
now we are all ready, even if we don't know it, and even if we don't want it.

Because now this is our true heritage, now this is our true birth right, the true heritage and birth right of each one of us living in this age, because God has now made it so for our age, not because of anything that we did or did not do, but because of the infinite Love and Mercy and Compassion of God within us

Now this is so, now this is the age and the choice, now nothing else matters, nothing else applies, no matter what we may thing or believe God has said in the past, or think or believe has happened in the past through God, for now this applies.

For now this is the "condition within the condition" that has always applied, this is the "law within the law" that has always applied, this is the "rule within the rule" that has always applied, this is the "teaching within the teaching" that has always applied, this is the "commandment within the commandment" that has always applied, and this is the "Word within the Word" that has always applied, but that we were not yet ready to hear and apply, but now we are ready to both hear it and apply it, by joining in partnership with God within us, by starting to live, pray to God, do duty to God, and to do all of this both within us, and on the "outside" of us, as "One with" God within us, as "One with" each other, and as "One with" the Creation of God within us.  Amen.

For now this is it, this is what God wants us to do, this is what God wants all of us living in this age to do, to again become "One with" God within us, but this time with an understanding of that "Oneness", before we physically die to the "outside" of us, this is what we must now do, not what we may think and believe has come before from God directly, or from God through any and all of His 124,000 Prophets, or Heavenly Beings, or Lights.

And in this way, this is our last chance to correctly choose, to correctly choose between "us" or God, our last chance to get it right before we die, our last chance to knowingly and consciously make our final choice, and to get it right, to choose God within us over "us" as 'separate from" God on the "outside" of us, before it is all over, before we die in our current state as "separate from" God within us, and by default God has to make the choice for us, based on what we truly deserve up to this point, which is an eternal life as "separate from" God within us, based on how we are currently living our lives, which is "selfishly", based on what we have done up to this point of true value with our life, which is nothing.

With us up to this point living our life in the same way that the apple seed does, as the apple seed that doesn't germinate does, just waiting out its time buried in the earth to die, all the while trying to protect itself from the earth, from the very same earth that it truth it came to the earth to join, so it could tell the story of the "oneness of the apple tree and its apples", hidden by God within it, until it finally dies, until it finally rots in the earth, and is absorbed into the earth, only to be reborn 105 million times, but never again as the apple seed, never again as that which came to the earth, to join with the earth, to tell this story, to tell the story of the "oneness of the apple tree and its apples", the story that it has been created by God to tell, so that we may in truth see and hear that story, which in truth is "our story", and then do the same with our life, rather than rotting in our earth, and taking on our 105 million rebirths.

And if we end up this way, rotting in the earth of us, within our mind and desire, as the apple seed does that doesn't germinate, then for us, like the apple seed, this is not very good, for then God has to turn us over to His Angels (peace be upon Him), and then we must be processed according to Their Rules, as given to Them a very, very long time ago by God within us, and They will follow these Rules exactly, for that is what They do, for those of us who have made the wrong choice, and have given up an eternal life as "One with" God within us, and with the understanding of that "Oneness",
for a short temporary life of ignorance as "separate from" God within us, on the "outside" of us. 

And we don't want this, to end up with God's Angels (peace be upon Him), because They can't understand what we are capable of understanding, and our life has then been a waste, just like the life of the apple seeds that fail to germinate, because we haven't even come to understand what the Angels know (peace be upon Him), and our life has been a waste of what God has placed within us, which is God and all of "His Stuff", in order to complete God's purpose for creating us, in order to complete what God is doing within us, which is revealing God to God within us, for the benefit of all of His Creations, including all of His Angels.

In this way, this is our one last chance, our last chance to choose between God and "us", which in truth is the choice between either the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, which in truth is God and True Man within us, or "us" as "separate from" God within us, on the "outside" of us, for a short time, which then becomes an eternal life of "separation from" God.

And if we continue with "business as usual" on the "outside" of us, and then if we die in that state, then God will decide for us, and hand us over to His Angels (peace be upon Them) for processing, for a "no choice" is still a choice, a choice of "separation from" God within us, because after reading this letter, my dearest loving brother Ellis, we can no longer plead ignorance, we can no longer tell God,

          "I didn't know", or even "I didn't understand".

For now, after reading this letter, all we can now say to God within us, after it is all over, if that becomes our fate, is,

          "I didn't want it, Oh God. I didn't want an eternal life of Oneness with You, Oh
          God." 

This is all we can now say to God, after reading this letter, my dearest loving brother Ellis, if that becomes our fate. 

May we both realize this now, my dearest loving brother Ellis, without the slightest doubt, and truly step out in the direction of God within us, step out on the "Straight Path" of God for our age, this very moment, handing over to God within us all responsibility for making this happen within us, trusting with each breath, with each look, with each thought, with each action, that He will, both today and for every day, every hour, ever moment of the rest of our life.  This is prayer.  This is truly prayer in our life.  Amen.

Always realizing, when this become difficult to do, as it will, for such is the "Straight Path" of God both within us and on the outside of us, which is God "separating from" us all that is "separating us" from God, if we will only let Him, if we will only join Him to do this within us, in this "Grand Endeavor" within us, with "us" within us as "One with" Him within us, and do it before we physically die to the "outside" of us, and always realizing, that the alternative to this, which is everything else, is completely unacceptable, no matter what.

For if this alternative becomes our fate, my dearest loving brother Ellis, then we have in our ignorance given up all of this, given up an eternal life of "Oneness with" God within us, with an understanding of that "Oneness", for absolutely nothing.

We have given up all of God within us, and all of the "Stuff of God" within us, and the understanding of all of this within us for eternity within us, for absolutely nothing, for a short temporary life of "selfishness' on the "outside" of us, as "separate from" God within us, as "separate from" each other on the "outside" of us, and as "separate from" the Creation of God within us.

As "separate from" the Creation of God within us, which in truth is the "Earth of God" within us, that we think in our ignorance, like the apple seeds that fail to germinate, that we have to protect ourselves from, but that in truth we came to this earth world, to join with the "Earth of God" within us, with the Creation of God within us, to germinate,
so the story of the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us could be told by God within us.  What a waste. 

Such is our current life, our current prayers, and our current duty, my dearest loving brother Ellis, a life, prayers, and duty of "separation and differences" on the "outside" of us, a life, prayers, and duty that all needs to come to an end within us, through the grace, the wisdom, and the 'ilm or divine knowledge of God within us, so a true life, true prayer, and true duty as "One with" God within us can begin within us, before we physically die to the "outside" of us.

This is our work, my dearest loving brother Ellis, to join in partnership with God within us in order to start to  truly intend a life, prayers, and duty of "Oneness" with God within us, rather than continuing our current life, prayers, and duty, which in truth is not really wrong, but rather is a finger of God pointing to what can be within us, to what should and can be our life, prayers, and duty, as the story of the apple tree and its apples is not wrong either, but rather is also a finger of God pointing to what should and can be within us, if we will only place all of our trust and love in God within us, and not 
try to not hedge our bets, by trying to trust and love both, both God and the world that we currently see in our ignorance as existing on the "outside" of us.

A life of "separation and differences" that we are currently experiencing as "us" and our dearest loving brothers and sisters living a life of "separation and differences", a life of arrogance, karma, and illusion, a life of desire for earth, women, and gold, in the world that we see in our collective ignorance as existing on the "outside" of us, but which in truth is within us, which in truth is the worlds of hell and of evil that we have allowed in our ignorance to grow within us, and which now in maturity rule over us, as the 9 openings of our body, with God's permission.

Until we "see God and steady Him within us", allowing God within us to then "Cure Himself of us", of "us" as "separate from" Him within us, because then we no longer exist, we no longer exist as "separate from" God within us, because then God within us has awakened from His dream within us, and then "we" as "One with" God within us, and God as "One with" us within Him within us, will rule over them, over these 9 openings within us, will rule over everything within us, allowing the story of the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us to be told within us, to move forward within us, and to come to completion within us.  Amen.

Amen, Amen, Ya Rabil Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahman Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahim Alameen.  Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar.  Amen.

A life of "separation and differences", a life of sin, on the "outside" of us which in truth is just leading us to hell, leading us to an eternal life of "separation from" God within us, unless we get God within us to change it, unless we get God within us to personally intervenes, unless we get God within us to make "us" as "separate from" Him within us into His problem within us, not our problem on the "outside" of us,
unless we can get God within us to make our life, our prayers, and our duty, into His problem within us, not our problem on the "outside" of us.

Unless we join in partnership with God within us to start to use God within us, to get to God within us, unless we join in partnership with God within us to stop trying to use what God has discarded within us, to get to God within us, which is everything we currently see in our ignorance as existing on the "outside" of us, unless we join in partnership with God within us to start to exclusively trust and love in God within us,
and no longer trust and love in the world on the "outside" of us, in any way.

Unless we do, as our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) within us, and God within Him, teach us to do.  For example, as They teach us to say, to our Guru, to our Shaikh, and to God within Him, on page 11,  in the "Invocation To The Guru", in the beautiful book of wisdom, "The Pearl of Wisdom", with "us" joined as "One with" God within us,

          "To let grace spring forth,
          To let the darkness vanish,
          To let the love of Guru grow,
          And to let qualities be purified."

          "O Graceful Guru, give me a remedy.
          Swami, show us a way to dispel the darkness in the world."

          "For the Silent One to appear as Grace,
          To find the world as a tiny thing,
          To destroy sorrow which is a maiden,
          With help from the Master Guru's graceful way,
          Seek and learn standing on the path,
          And ask with a melting heart."

          "Let the body become the true mystery,
          Dominant with grace,
          Let the seed be destroyed,
          Blinding both eyes.
          Enshrine in thy heart,
          The lamp of Guru's graceful words,
          With a heart of love,
          See Aathi as a thing."

          "Spread the Guru's words with delightful heart,
          Unfurl the flag of Guru's words everywhere,
          Then the fate that accompanies thee
          Shall turn into dust."

          "My true and perfect pupils, gems of my eyes,
          Ask for the remedy in order to shine everywhere."

Such is our current life, my dearest loving brother Ellis, a short temporary life of "selfishness" on the "outside" of us, which if we don't correct before we die, will
become our fate for eternity, which if we don't correct by joining in partnership with God within us, will become our fate for eternity.

Unless before we die, we intend to give up our "working for wages" on the "outside" of us, we intend to give up our "working for wages" to get into some illusory heaven on the "outside" of us, and instead join in partnership with God within us, to make these intentions true within us, with "us" within us as "One with" God within us, in order to finish what God has started within us, a very, very long time ago.

If not, then what we currently call as our life, our prayers, and our duty, on the "outside" of us, will become our fate, after we die, will become our eternal life of "separation from" God within us, a fate destined by God for each of us in this age, if we don't truly step out in God's direction within us, before we die, or at least try.

                                                                                                                                  - go to outline
Quotation from the "Gospel of John" - Chapter 01, verses 22 & 23

At least try to "Make straight the way of the Lord" within us, before we die, as "John the Baptist" told us to do over 2000 years ago, as recorded in Chapter 01, Verse 22 and 23, in the "Gospel of John".

          "Then said they unto him, Who art thou? That we may give an answer to them
          that sent us.  What sayest thou of thyself?"

          "He said, I am the voice of the One crying in the wilderness, Make straight the
          way of the Lord, as said the Prophet Esaias."

And in this way, my dearest loving brother Ellis, we must at least try, at least try to "become "One with" God within us, before we die, at least try to make this our true intention, before we die, and doing it not just for some "selfish" reason, like a place near God in some illusory heaven on the "outside" of us, but rather doing it for God's reason, for a truly "selfless" reason, a reason that allows us to quietly and peacefully disappear again into God within us, from which we have all come, before we die, doing
it only for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us.

Doing it this time, that is, becoming again "One with" God within us, with an understanding of that "Oneness", so it will never leave us again, an understanding that we can then spend eternity sharing with God within us, as "One with" God within us.  Amen.

And then God will do everything else, both within us and on the "outside" of us, when we turn away from our current "outside" of us, and turn towards God within us, and
only come together on the "outside" of us as "One", as the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, which is the "truth of us" within us, and the "truth of God" within us, that God has also personally and ever so lovingly placed within each of us.

In this way, with "us" within us as "One with" God within us, no longer living and
coming together as separate people, or as separate groups, praying in our separate ways to our separate God, on the "outside" of us, because God has none of this within Him, He has none of our current "separation & differences" within Him, because God is "One", and in truth, so are we.

So if we join with God within us, to move in His direction within us, to "Make straight the way of the Lord" within us, to walk with God within us on the "Straight Path" of God within us, then we too will have none of these things within us, none of this "separation and differences" within us.

So in this way, may we all join with God within us to begin to act this way, both within us and on the "outside" of us, to begin to act as "One with" God within us, to begin to act as "One with" each other on the "outside" of us, and to begin to act as "One with" the Creation of God within us, and then God will do everything else, then God will set about "Curing Himself of us", of "us" as "separate from" God, because then we no longer exist as "separate from" God, allowing God to again "separate from" Him all that "separates" Him from Him, but this time within us, and in this way, allowing "Us" to truly turn away from all of our "separations and differences". 

And that would be very, very good for all of us, for Jesus (peace be upon Him) within us, for God within Jesus within us (peace be upon Him), for God within all of 24,000 Prophets, Heavenly Beings, and Lights of God within us, and for "us" within us as "One with" God within us.  Amen.

My dearest loving brother Ellis, this is what Jesus (peace be upon Him) could not tell the Children of God in His age, over 2000 years ago, that the "Comforter", that the "Spirit of Truth" can now tell us in our age, that our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), and His Children (may God be pleased with each of Us) can now tell us in our age, that this child can now tell us, that each of us can now tell the Children of God for our age, because now we are ready, each of us is ready to both hear it and tell it, because for our age God has made it so, now we can trust and believe in it, accept it, and become "One with" it, if we like.

Because now we are ready. Now all that is left is our choice, to either accept or reject it, to either accept or reject the "Gift of God" for our age, the "Gift" what Jesus (peace be upon Him) told us about over 2000 years ago, and told us that He would later send to us later.

And now Jesus (peace be upon Him), and God within Him, has sent the "Gift of God" to us, for all of the Children of God for our age, because now we are ready, each one of us, are ready to realize, understand, and either accept or reject it, before we die to the "outside" of us. 

And the choice is ours, not God's because God has already made His choice, and He chose "Oneness with" us, and that is why we are now alive, that is why we are currently living in the world today, to make our choice before we die, everything else is just drama, the drama of "separation and differences" in the world that we see in our ignorance as existing on the "outside" of us.

May each of us join with God within us, and with the "Gift of God" for our age, with the life and teaching of God for our age, to make the correct choice, before it is too late, before we physically die to the "outside" of us, and in this way, again become "One with" God within us, before we die, but this time with an understanding of that "Oneness" so it will never leave us again.  Amen.

And may we all do this in our age by joining with the life and teaching of our Father,
Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), and His Children (may God be pleased with each of Us), do this by joining as "One with" this child and with this beautiful letter from God within us, do this by joining as "One with" God within us to do this "Heart's Work" within us, do this in order to share the wisdom of God for our age with all of our dearest loving brothers and sisters, with our family and friends, so they too can make the correct choice, before it is too late,
before we die to the "outside" of us, or before the "outside" of all of us is prematurely destroyed by "one of us", because in our age this can also happen. May God protect us all. Amen.

And in this way, giving each of them the opportunity to make their own choice about this important matter, not trying to make it for them, by not sharing this letter with them, by not sharing the "Gift of God" for our age, thinking that somehow we know what they need, but rather trusting in God within them, and letting them decide for themselves, as this child has done with you, my dearest loving brother Ellis.

For only then will we find peace in this child and in this letter, and with the "Gift of God" for our age, and find peace with each of our dearest loving brothers and sisters, with each member of our family and friends, by allowing them to find peace in this letter, in the "Gift of God" for our age, if they like, even if we don't initially find it for ourselves.  Such is true love.  Amen.

May we both learn to live this way, before we die, my dearest loving brother Ellis. 
Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. All praise and praising belong to God, and to God alone. Only God is Great. Amen.

My love you (anbu), my dearest loving brother Ellis - Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler).

B.  Discourse 02 - "Bear Not Witness of Ourselves, But Only of God"

(Note:  this second discourse from God within us all, to all of us, is so important that it was made into the another Spiritual Letter, which you can access by clicking on the following: Spiritual Letter 70, "Bear Not Witness of Ourselves, But Only of God Within Us" (www.SpiritualLetter070.homestead.com), which provides us with a beautiful
further explanation of the "Gift of God" for our age, of the life and teaching of our
Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) within us, and of God within Him, and presenting them in the context of the life and teaching of Jesus (peace be upon Him), on the "outside" of us, and of God within Him, over 2000 years ago.  Amen)

Summary of Discourse 02:

Discourse 02 is about the "Choice" that each of us must make before we physically die to the "outside" of us, if we are to truly become successful in our own lifetime, the "Choice" to either "Worship Ourselves" on the "outside" of us, as "separate from" God within us, or to "Worship God" within us, as "One with" God within us, which is to become "One with" God within us, and about the "major obstacle" to making the "Correct Choice" in our lifetime, that is, to becoming "One with" God within us, before we die to the flesh, the "major obstacle" which is our ego, which is "us", the "current us", the "us" of living a life of "selfishness" on the "outside" of us, which is our current life of "separation and differences", as well as our current prayers to God, our current understanding of God, and our current duty to God, a life that we are currently living, and prayers, understanding, and duty to God that we are currently performing, which in truth are not acceptable to God within us, because they are being performed by "us" as "separate from" God within us, and by "us" as "separate from" our dearest loving brothers and sisters, by "us" in the world that we see in our collective ignorance as existing on the "outside" of us, but which in truth is a world of darkness, a world of hell and evil within us, that in our ignorance we have allowed to grow within us, and which in maturity now rules over us, as the 9 openings of our body, with God's permission, until we see God and steady God within us, for then God sets about "Curing Himself of us" within us, because then "we no longer exist" as "separate from" God within us, for then we only exist as "us" within us as "One with" God within us.  Amen   

Text of Discourse 02:

Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim. In the name of God, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate. Al-salam 'alaykum wa-rahmat Allah wa-barakatuhu kulluhu. Wa 'alaykum al-salam wa-rahmat Allah wa-barakatuhu kulluhu.  May all the peace, the beneficence, and the blessing of God be upon us all.  May God help us all.

My love you (anbu), my dearest loving brother Ellis - Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler).

Here is the second of the two beautiful discourses that have now come to "us", that have now come to "us" from God within us all, that is, from God within us, to this child, and to you, to you my dearest loving brother Ellis, and to all of our dearest and loving family and friends, that have come to all of the dearest and loving Children of God for our age, which is everyone of us living in this age, if we truly want it, that is, if we truly want to again become "One with" God within us, before we physically die to the "outside" of us.  Amen. 

And this second beautiful discourse from God within us all, along with the first beautiful discourse, which now together make up the new page 3 of 5 of this letter, have been beautifully prepared by God within us all in order to prepare us, to set the stage, so to speak, for the next few sections of this letter, which follow on Page 4 of 5, starting with
Topic 10, and ending with Topic 12, which are the very heart of this beautiful letter from God within us all, of this beautiful letter to each of "us" from God within all of us, this "Gift of God" for our age for the Children of God for our age, because Page 4 of 5 starts with the "Choice" that we all must make in this age, if we are to become truly successful in our own lifetime, and ends with the "Main Obstacle" to our correctly realizing and making that choice, and in this way, becoming truly successful in our lifetime, before we physically die to the "outside" of us.

In this way, the next section of this letter, on Page 4 of 5, begins with Topic 10, "Our Choice", and ends with Topic 12, "The Justice of God and the Sin of Righteousness", which focuses "us" on both the "Main Goal" of our life, which is to become again "One with" God within us, before we die to the flesh, but this time with an understanding of this "Oneness" so it will never leave us again, and on the "Main Obstacle" of our life, which is standing in our way to our reaching this goal, which is our ego, which is our own existence as "separate from" the existence of God within us, which is our current life of "separation and differences" on the "outside" of us, in ignorance of God within us, and in ignorance of what we have allowed to grow within us.

In ignorance of what we have allowed to grow within us, which as the 9 openings of our own body now rule over "us", with God's permission, rule over "us" as "separate from" God within us, until we "See God and steady Him" within us.

That rule over "us" as "separate from" each other on the "outside" of us, and as "separate from" the Creation of God within us, the Creation of God that God has lovingly and ever so patiently placed within each of us, as "His Earth", within which He will plant the "Seed of God" within us, and grow the "Tree of God" within us, and bear the "Fruit of God" within us, when we have proven to God within us, by our actions and not just by our words, that "we can be cured", that God can "Cure Himself of us" within us, after He "accepts us", after we have "seen Him and steadied Him within us", because in truth "we do not want" anything that God has discarded, to become "God within us.

And what God has discarded to become God within us, which He must do again within us, if we are to be cured, because the "cure of us is God" within us, what God has discarded to become God within us is everything we currently see in our ignorance as existing on the "outside" of us. 

Such is the "Main Goal" of our life, my dearest loving brother Ellis, which we must accomplish, or at least truly begin to accomplish in partnership with God within us, by realizing, understanding, accepting, and joining with, by becoming "One with", the "Gift of God" for our age, with the life and teaching of God for our age, which for our age is the life and teaching of our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen
(may God be pleased with Him) within us, and of God within Him, and of His Children
(may God be pleased with each of Us) on the "outside" of us, like this letter.

Such is the "Main Goal" of our life, my dearest loving brother Ellis, which is making straight the "Path of God" within us, the "Way of the Lord" within us, before we physically die to the "outside" of us.  Amen.

And such is the "Main Obstacle" of our life preventing that, my dearest loving brother Ellis, preventing us from reaching this goal, which is our ego, the main obstacle between "us" and "us" becoming "One with" God within us, the main obstacle which is "us" living a life of sin, a life of "separation and differences" on the "outside" of us, the
main obstacle between "us" and "us" realizing and making the correct choice in our lifetime, the choice of "Oneness with" God within us, for eternity, and truly making this choice before we physically die to the "outside" of us.

And another facet of the "Main Obstacle" of our true life as "One with" God within us is our current beliefs and practices, that our current beliefs and practices are already Ok, that what we currently understand about "us" and God, and what we are currently doing in relationship to God, that is, our duty to God, is just fine, that we already correctly believe in God, and correctly pray to Him, love Him, trust in Him, and do duty for Him.  So what else is needed?.

And Topic 12 also focuses on the "subtle sin" that we have all fallen into, in all of the religions, including Christianity, Islam, and Judaism, as another facet of the "Main Obstacle" to our "Oneness with" God within us, before we die to the flesh, which is the
"Sin of Righteousness" that Jesus (peace be upon Him) Himself warned us about over 2000 years ago.

That Jesus (peace be upon Him) told us over 2000 years ago was the one thing that He wanted to tell us about, before He died, but couldn't because at that time, we "could not bear to hear it", but that later, after He physically left us, He would send us the "Comforter", the "Spirit or Consciousness of Truth", who would come to us in our greatest hour of need, which is now, and would teach us about this most subtle of all sins, the very sin that in our ignorance we have all fallen in to, in many cases without even knowing it, about this "Sin of Righteousness", and reprove or gently remove it from us, if we will only accept Him, as truly coming from Jesus (peace be upon Him), and then let Him correct us, when Jesus (peace be upon Him) later sends Him to us, sends the "Comforter", the "Spirit of Truth" to us.

Which is what is happening now, my dearest loving brother Ellis, in our age, which in truth is the life and teaching of our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), and of His Children (may God be pleased with each of Us), which in truth is the reason for this letter to my dearest loving brother Ellis, and to all of the Children of God for this age.  Amen.

And the next section of this letter, as Page 4 of 5, begins with Topic 10, "Our Choice", describing the only true choice in our life, the only thing truly left in our life after we cut away the drama of our life on the "outside" of us, the choice that we all must make in this age, before we physically die to the "outside" of us, if we are to become truly successful in our own lifetime, realizing that a "no choice" in our lifetime is still a choice, a choice that is then made for us, by God within us, a choice we will most certainly live to regret, if God has to make it for us after we die.

And in this way, a choice which when truly understood with our wisdom immediately answers all of the most serious questions of our life, questions like "What is the purpose of my life?, and "Who am I", "Where am I", and "What is truly happening in my life?"

And the answer to our life is, that we must again become "One", but this time with an understanding of our "Oneness", we must again become "One with" God within us, and "One with" all of our dearest loving brothers and sisters on the "outside" of us, and "One with" the Creation of God within us, and we must do this because God is "One" within us, and God is "One with" everything, both within us and on the "outside" of us, and because in truth we are "Of God", and "Of what God is doing within us", we are not of the Creation of God within us, or of the elemental spirits that have grown within us in our ignorance, which we have in our ignorance become "one with". 

This is the answer to our life, we must becoming "One with" God within us, and "One with" what God is doing within us, which is revealing God to God within us, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us.  Amen.

And we must do all of this before we die to the "outside" of us, or at least truly begin it in partnership with God within us, as "One with" the "Gift of God" for our age, because after we physically die to the "outside" of us the opportunity to do this is over, the opportunity to become again "One", with an understanding of our "Oneness", the opportunity to become again "One with" God within us, and again "One with" what God is doing within us, is gone, because that is the way God set it up, that is the reason for the "outside" of us, that is why we are now alive living in the world that we see in our ignorance as existing on the "outside" of us, to correctly make the choice, the choice between living as "One with" God within us, and living as "separation from" God on the "outside" of us, and to make this choice while we still can, before we die to the flesh and God has to make this choice for us. 

May God help all of us realize this "truth of our life", that in truth we are the "Seed of God" buried within the Creation of God within us, we are "God happening" within the "Earth of God" within us, and the truth of God within us, that in truth God within us, as the "Tree of God" within us, is the "Seed of God's Fruits" within us, is the "Seed of True Man" within us, is "True Man happening" within the "Tree of God" within the "Seed of God" within the "Earth of God" within us, without the slightest doubt, before we physically die to the "outside" of us, all of which in truth is the story of the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us.  Amen.

And in truth this is prayer to God, this choice is our prayer to God, this choice is our true life, the only true prayer to God we can do, the only true life that we can live, as "One with" God within us, the prayer and the life of "Oneness", the prayer and the life of the "Oneness" of "us and God within us.

Not what we are currently doing in our ignorance on the "outside" of us, in the dream of us, in the drama of us, as "separate from" God within us, as "separate from" each other on the "outside" of us, and as "separate from" the Creation of God within us.  Amen.

Not what we currently call prayer to God, not what we currently call our life on the "outside" of us, which are all prayers and a life of "separation and differences", prayers and a life that say to God, that "I am a Christian and you are a Muslim", or that "I am a Muslim and you are a Jew", or that "I am a Christian, or a Muslim, or a Jew, and you are a Hindu, or a Zoroastrian (Fire Worship)", or any of the other subdivisions of prayer or life that "we" have made up, not that God has made up, that we have made up in our ignorance, in our arrogance, karma, and illusion, to please our mind and desire, but certainly not to please God within us who has none of this, none of this "separation and differences" within Him.  Amen.

No this type of worship or prayer, this type of life, is not acceptable to God within us, especially in our age, when God has given each of us everything, both within us and on the "outside" of us, that is necessary for "us", for each of "us", to transcend these thoughts and prayers and life of "separation and differences", thoughts and prayers and a life that are not really worshipping God at all within us, who in truth is "One with" everyone and everything, both within us and on the "outside" of us, but rather prayers and a life that are really worshipping "ourselves" on the "outside" of us, that are really only worshipping "us" and our dearest loving brothers and sisters as "separate from" God within us, as "separate from" each other on the "outside" of us, and as "separate from" the Creation of God within us.

This is our flaw, our only true flaw, and this is our current prayer and life, our prayers of "separation and differences", and our current life of "separation from" God, of "separation from" each other, and of "separation from" the Creation of God within us.

A flaw, a prayer, and a life that Jesus (peace be upon Him) started to warn us about, 
started to explain to us about over 2000 years ago, when He told us in the "Gospel of John", not to "worship ourselves" by forming into groups, calling us "this or that" group, as separate from other groups, because in truth we are all "One, we are all "The Children of God".

For in truth God is "One", and so are we, and God is the "One" that we all must
worship, as "One with" God within us, and "we" are the "One" who must worship God within us, as "One with" each other on the "outside" of us, and this is what we must believe about both God and about "us", this "Oneness", which in maturity within us is the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us.  Amen.

And in this way, to truly pray to God within us we must come together as "One" within us, as the "Prayer of the One to the One who Is" within us, and on the "outside" of us, if we come together to pray to God, we must come together as "One", all gathering under "One" tent to worship the "One" God, as "One Group", as the "One Religion of God", not as "separate groups", both "separate from" God within us and "separate from" each other on the "outside" of us.  Only this way of worshipping God within us, as "One with" God within us, and as "One with" each other on the "outside" of us, is acceptable to God within us, not what we are all currently doing.

Quote from the "Gospel of John" - Chapter 05, Verses 30 & 31

For as Jesus (peace be upon Him) tells us in Chapter 05, Verses 30 & 31 in the "Gospel of John",

          "I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and My judgment is just;
          because I seek not My will, but the will of the Father who hath sent Me."

          "If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true".

                                                                                                                                  - go to outline
Quote from the "Gospel of John" - Chapter 05, Verses 43 & 44

And further in the Chapter 05, in Verses 43 & 44, Jesus (peace be upon Him) teaches us,

          "I have come in My Father's name, and ye receive Me not: if another shall come
          in his own name, him ye will receive."

          "How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the
          honour that cometh from God only?"

In this way, when we separate ourselves off into groups, and define "us" in terms of those groups, define "us" as members of this or that group, as "separate from" other groups, with a common set of beliefs and practices, "separate from" the beliefs and practices of other groups, like as a Christian, or a Muslim, or a Jew, or a Hindu, or a Zoroastrian (Fire Worshiper), we are doing just that, we are bearing witness of ourselves, as "separate from" other Children of God, and we honoring one another as members of our designated group, as "separate from" other groups. 

This is wrong, and is not acceptable to God within us, for anything that we do in this context of "separation and differences" is against both God and True Man within us, is against the "Oneness" that is God within us, and is against the "Oneness" that is True Man within us, is against the "Oneness" of God within us and against the "Oneness" of "us" within God within us, is against the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, which in truth is God and True Man within us, which in truth is the very essence of God's existence within us, and of our existence within God within us, of "us" within God within us.

And in this way, our current prayers, our current life, as well as our current learning, and our current duty is wrong, and is not acceptable to God within us, because in this context, in our current state, with "us" living just on the "outside" us, as if we are "separate from" God, which is not true, as if we are "separate from" each other, which is not true, and as if we are "separate from" the Creation of God within us, which is also not true, with "us" not yet having shifted our focus off of the "outside" of us and onto God within us, all that we do is wrong, including our prayers and our life of "separation and differences", and our learning, and our duty of "separation and differences".  May God protect us from making this mistake, and open our heart to the truth of these words.  Amen.

Please forgive me my dearest loving brother Ellis if this upsets you or any of your dearest loving family or friends in any way, but it is the truth, it is the word of God within all of us for this age, for the Children of God for this age, and to be successful in our own lifetime we must accept it as such, and join with God within us to become "One with" God within us, and "One with" what God is doing within us, which is revealing God to God within us, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us.  Amen.

And we must do all of this before we physically die to the "outside" of us, or at least truly join with God within us to restart this journey up again within us, this journey of the soul within us back into the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, but this time with an understanding of that Oneness, so it will never leave us again, which in truth is "Who we are?, in this way answering God's question of God within us, that was asked by God of God within us, a very, very long time ago, even before there was time within us, the question, "Who am I?" . Amen.

                                                                                                                                  - go to outline
Quote from the "Gospel of John" - Chapter 05, Verses 19 to 24

For as Jesus (peace be upon Him) told us over 2000 years ago, as recorded also in the "Gospel of John", also in Chapter 05, in Verses 19 to 24, and as our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) teaches us again in our age, and as His Children (may God be pleased with each of Us) are teaching us right now,

          "Then answered Jesus and said to them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son
          can do nothing of Himself, but what He seeth the Father do: for what things
          soever He doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise."

          "For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth Him all things that Himself doeth:
          and He will shew Him greater works than these, that ye may marvel."

          "For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son
          quickeneth whom He will."

          "For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son.
          That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father which hath
          sent Him."

          "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth My Word, and believeth on Him
          that sent Me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is
          passed from death unto life."  Amen.

And each of us, my dearest loving brother Ellis, in this age, is this "Son of God", that Jesus (peace be upon Him) showed us an example of over 2000 years ago, if we like,
if our intention is truly to become "One with" God within us, before we physically die to the "outside" of us.

                                                                                                                                  - go to outline
Quote from the "Gospel of John" - Chapter 01, Verses 10 to 14

For as God told us over 2000 years ago, as recorded also in the "Gospel of John", in
Chapter 01, in Verses 10 to 14, and as our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) teaches us again in our age, and as
His Children (may God be pleased with each of Us) are teaching us right now,

          "He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knew Him
          not.  He came unto His own, and His own received Him not."

          "But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the Sons of
          God, even to them that believe in His name."

          "Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man,
          but of God.  And the Word was made flesh, and dwell among us, full of grace
          and truth."  Amen.

Such is the true nature of each of "us", my dearest loving brother Ellis, to truly receive God within us in our age, as Jesus (peace be upon Him) did in His age, and in this way to receive God's power to become the "Son of God" in our age, to become the "Word" make flesh in our age, and dwell among all those living in this age, as the Sun or Light of God to the world, in our age, as Jesus (peace be upon Him) did in His age.  Such is the true example of Jesus (peace be upon Him) for our age, to do as He did, both within us and on the "outside" of us, in our age, to make the story of Jesus (peace be upon Him) in His age, our story in this age.  Amen.

Such is the true nature of each of "us", my dearest loving brother Ellis, of "us within us as "One with" God within us, which is "Oneness", and the true nature of God within us, which is also "Oneness", as "One with" what we can truly become within us, in our own lifetime within us, which is True Man within God within us, which in maturity is the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us.  Amen.

With "us" within us as the "Seed of God" within the Creation of God within us, which when we join as "One with" God within us, as the "Oneness of God and His Creation" within us, becomes the "Tree of God" within the Creation of God within us.

And with God within us as the "Seed of True Man" within the "Seed of God" within the Creation of God within us, which after the "Seed of God" within us germinates, becomes the "Seed of the Fruit" of God within the "Tree of God" within the Creation of God within us, within the "Wish-fulfilling Tree" which in the Islamic tradition is called
the Katpaha Virudcham, which "contains the Power of God, the light of the grace-awakened wisdom of gnanam, from which you can receive whatever you ask for, whatever you think of".

With this "Seed of the Fruit" of God first appearing as the "Flower of Wisdom" on the "Tree of God" within the Creation of God within us, as the 6th level of wisdom within us, the wisdom of the Qutbiyyat or Power of God within us, the "wisdom beyond intellect that teaches, analyzes, and controls" everything within us, which if it is properly fertilized by the "Honeybee of God" within us, which is from the "Mountain Top" of God within us, which is the "Throne of God" on the top of our head, the place in our body that can support the weight of God, that is, fertilized by the "Primal One" within us, with the 'ilm or divine knowledge of God within us, allowing this "Flower of Wisdom" within us to become the mature fruits on the wish fulfilling tree of God within us.

And these mature fruits includes all of the religious scripts of all of the religions or paths of God that have come into the world, since Adam and Eve (peace be upon Them) came into the world, over 200 million years ago, including everything in the Old and New Testament of the Holy Bible, the teaching in the Jewish and the Christian traditions, and everything in the Holy Qur'an, the teaching in the Islamic tradition.

And the One who tastes the sweet taste of these mature fruits within us, which is the taste of God within us, and then distributes these "Fruits of God" to all of the Creation of God within us, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us, is True Man within God within us, who in the Islamic tradition is called Insan Kamil, or "Perfected Man".  Amen. 

May all the peace, the beneficence, and the blessing of God be upon us all.  May God help us all.

My love you (anbu), my dearest loving brother Ellis - Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler).

Introduction - to Spiritual Letter 66

Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim. In the name of God, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate. Al-salam 'alaykum wa-rahmat Allah wa-barakatuhu kulluhu. Wa 'alaykum al-salam wa-rahmat Allah wa-barakatuhu kulluhu.  May all the peace, the beneficence, and the blessing of God be upon us all.  May God help us all.

My love you (anbu), my dearest loving brothers and sisters - Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler).

Here is Page 3 of 5 of a beautiful letter to a High School Classmate of this child, a
Mr. Ellis Thomas, who has recently demonstrated very strong faith and trust in God, and who is currently going through a situation in his life that allows him to be an example to all of us of his Iman, of his absolute, unshakable faith, certitude, and determination in God, in the truth that "Only God exists" within us, and in the truth that "God is One" within us.  Amen.

As always, this letter was written by this child sitting at the feet of God for our age, at the feet of our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) within us, and of His Children (may God be pleased with each of Us) on the "outside" of us, and is respectfully and humbly shared with each of you at this time.  Amen.

Introduction - to Spiritual Letter 66


Introduction - to Page 3 of Spiritual Letter 66
          Which consist of comments sent to Mr. Ellis Thomas about the new Page 3 of
          this Spiritual Letter, about the two beautiful discourses that came to all of us, from
          God within us, from within the heart of this child, while this child was preparing to
          send Mr. Thomas page 3 of the original letter, coming as a "beautiful interruption"
          from God within us all, to what we thought we were doing, an "interruption from
          God" within us, which is most certainly the "Way of The Lord" within us, that
          "John The Baptist" told us to "Make Straight" within ourselves

A.  Discourse 01 - "And The Truth Shall Make You Free"
          A beautiful discourse from God within us all, to all of us living in this age, given to
          this child, at this point in this letter, about the great problem faced by all of us in
          our age, which is the subtle "Sin of Righteousness"

                                                                                                    - go to Next Page of "Outline"
A. Discourse 01 - continued
          The subtle "Sin of Righteousness", a sin that we have all fallen into in our age, as
          members of all of the great religions of the world in our age, for example, as
          members of the religions of Christianity, of Islam, of Judaism, of Hinduism, and of
          Zoroastrianism

B.  Discourse 02 - "Bear Not Witness of Ourselves, But Only of God Within Us"
          Another beautiful discourse from God within us all, to all of us living in this age,
          given to this child, at this point in this letter, about the "Choice" that each of us
          must make before we physically die to the "outside" of us, if we are to truly
          become successful in our own lifetime, which is to use our life to "Bear Witness"
          to either "Ourselves or God", that is, to decide between either becoming again
          "One with" God within us, but this time with an understanding of that "Oneness"
          so it will never leave us again, or of continuing to live on the "outside" of "us"
          as if we were "separate from" God within us, living as if we truly had our own life
          "separate from" God within us, until we die, and then after we die to "harvest the
          crop we have grown" and "move into the house that we have built", and about the
          "major obstacle" standing between "us", and "us" making the correct choice, and
          "us" sowing the good crop, and "us" building the proper house, before we die to
          the flesh, the "major obstacle" which is our ego, which is our "bearing witness of
          myself", and which is our current life of sin, of "separation and differences" on the
          "outside" of us, which is our receiving honor one of another", as Jesus (peace be
          upon Him) warned us about, and told us not to do, over 2000 years ago.

                                                                                                    - go to Next Page of "Outline"
B.  Discourse 02 - continued
          As Jesus (peace be upon Him) told us not to do, as recorded by the 13th disciple
          of Jesus (peace be upon Him), by the "One loved by Jesus", by the One told by
          Jesus (peace be upon Him) to "Tarry till I Come".  That is, Jesus (peace be upon
          Him) told the disciple Barnabus (peace be upon Him) to "Stay alive in the world for
          another 600 years" until Jesus (peace be upon Him) came again, to finish what
          He started, that is, to "Take away the sin of the world", to "Make straight the way
          of the Lord", which is to "separate from" man all that "separates man" from God,
          coming this time as the Prophet Muhammad (blessing and peace be upon Him).
          As recorded by the first and the last disciple of Jesus (peace be upon Him), by
          the disciple Barnabus (peace be upon Him), over 2000 years ago, and as
          recorded now by this child in this letter.

B. Discourse 02 - continued
          For example, as recorded by the disciple Barnabus (peace be upon Him) in the
          "Gospel of John", in Chapter 05, verses 31 and 44, recorded as the "major
          obstacle" standing between "us" within us and God within us, which is our ego,
          standing between "us" within us and living again as "One with" God within us,
          standing between God within us and the Creation of God within us, preventing
          both from coming to completion within us, as the "Oneness of God and True Man"
          within us, and doing all of this, at least truly starting it by truly joining in
          partnership with God within us, by accepting and becoming "One with" the "Gift of
          God" for our age, and doing this before "we" die to the flesh, before we physically
          die to the "outside" of us, and in this way, removing in our own lifetime what is
          currently standing between "us", and "us" becoming the "Witness of God" within
          us, and the "Witness of what God is doing" within us, which is God revealing God
          to God within us, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us.  Amen

Introduction - to Page 3 of Spiritual Letter

Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim. In the name of God, the Most Merciful, the Most
Compassionate.  Al-salam 'alaykum wa-rahmat Allah wa-barakatuhu kulluhu. Wa
'alaykum al-salam wa-rahmat Allah wa-barakatuhu kulluhu. May all the peace, the
beneficence, and the blessing of God be upon us all.  May God help us all.

My love you (anbu), my dearest loving brother Ellis Thomas - Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen
(Louie Beutler).

In the process of sending you Page 3 of 4 of "Spiritual Letter 66" two new beautiful discourses, from God within us all, came into the heart of this child, for "us", for you and this child, for all of the Children of God for this age, if we only truly want it, if we only truly want to again become "One with" God within us, before we die to the flesh, before we die to the "outside" of  us, but this time with an understanding of our "Oneness" so it will never leave us again.

Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. All praise and praising belong to God, and to God alone.
Only God is Great. Amen.

Therefore, we have included these two new beautiful discourses from God within us all, as the new Page 3 of this letter, instead of the original Page 3 of this letter, and then we have made the original Page 3 of this letter into Page 4 of this letter, and Page 4 into Page 5, and in this way, we have now made "Spiritual Letter 66" into 5 pages.  So, the rest of the original letter to you, of Spiritual Letter 66, will start up again as Page 4 of 5 of this letter. 

And please be patient with this adjustment, my dearest loving brother Ellis, because such is the nature of God within us, and of our life when we join in partnership with Him within us, when we start to again live as "One with" God within us, rather than as "separate from" God within us, on the "outside" of us, as is our current life of sin, our current life of "selfishness" on the "outside" of us. 

May all the peace, the beneficence, and the blessing of God be upon us all.  May God help us all.  Amen.

My love you (anbu), my dearest loving brother Ellis - Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler).

A.  Discourse 01 - "And The Truth Shall Make You Free"

(Note:  this first discourse from God within us all, to all of us, is so important that it was made into the next Spiritual Letter, which you can access by clicking on the following: Spiritual Letter 67, "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" (www.SpiritualLetter067.homestead.com), which provides us with a beautiful explanation of the "Gift of God" for our age, of the life and teaching of our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) within us, and of God within Him, and presenting them in the context of the life and teaching of Jesus (peace be upon Him), on the "outside" of us, and of God within Him, over 2000 years ago.  Amen)

Summary of Discourse 01:

Discourse 01 is about the great problem facing all of us in our age, my dearest loving brother Ellis, which  is the subtle "Sin of Righteousness" that we have all fallen into in our age, as members of all of the great religions of the world in our age, as members of Christianity, of Islam, of Judaism, of Hinduism, and of Zoroastrianism, a subtle sin of
seduction that Jesus (peace be upon Him) warned us about, but could not help us with then, in the age of Jesus (peace be upon Him), because only now in our age, at this point in the story of the "Oneness of God and True Man" within each of us, can we be cured of this subtle "Sin of Righteousness", if we will only find, accept, realize, and join as "One with" the "Gift of God" for our age, that Jesus (peace be upon Him) told us about, over 2000 years ago, and that Jesus (peace be upon Him) has now personally
sent to each of us living in this age, as the Children of God for this age, if we only truly want it..

Text of Discourse 01:

Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim. In the name of God, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate. Al-salam 'alaykum wa-rahmat Allah wa-barakatuhu kulluhu. Wa 'alaykum al-salam wa-rahmat Allah wa-barakatuhu kulluhu. May all the peace, the beneficence, and the blessing of God be upon us all. May God help us all.

My love you (anbu), my dearest loving brother Ellis - Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler).

Here is Page 3 of 5 of this beautiful letter to "us", to all of us, to "us" from God within all of us, that is, from God within all of us, to His Children for this age, including this child, and you my dearest loving brother Ellis, and all of our dearest and loving family and friends.

That is, a "Gift from God" to all of the dearest and loving Children of God for our age, which is everyone of us living in this age, if we truly want it, that is, if we truly want to again become "One with" God within us, before we physically die to the "outside" of us.

For if we don't truly want this, if this is not the true intention of our life, then something terrible has happened to us, since we originally come from God and were originally make in His Image, and since originally we were "One with" God in the "world of soul" within us, before coming to this earth world within us, to the first of "God's Schools" within us, to the "School of Contrasts" within us.

Then somehow we have become "separated from" God within us, somehow we have become "separated from" each other, somehow we have  "separated from" the Creation of God, somehow we have been seduced, somehow we have become caught by what is "separate from" God within us, and by what is "separate from" each of us, and "separate from" the Creation of God, and we have now become "one with" this, rather than staying "One with" God within us, as we originally were, and such is our current state, not the original state of purity, and wisdom, and beauty that we were first in, through God's effort on our behalf.

So if we don't want to again become "One with" God within us, before we die, then something terrible and very subtle has happened to us, which we must realize, understand, and correct, or as Jesus (peace be upon Him) warned us, over 2000 years ago, we will never see God again, we will never see Jesus again (peace be upon Him).

Quotation From The "Gospel of John" - Chapter 16, verse 10

And this is why Jesus (peace be upon Him) told us over 2000 years ago, as recorded in Chapter 16, verse 10, of the "Gospel of John",

          "Of Righteousness, because I go to My Father, and ye see Me no more."

So if we don't correct this subtle fault, this "Sin of Righteousness", both within us and on the "outside" of us, that in our ignorance each of us in our age have fallen into, then we are doomed to "never" see God or Jesus again (peace be upon Him).

The subtle "Sin of Righteousness" that each of us in all of the religions of the world have fallen into, including the religions of Christianity, Islam, Judaism, as well as the earlier religions of Hinduism and Zoroastrianism.

(Note: Zoroastrianism is a Persian religion founded in the 6th century B.C. by the prophet Zoroaster, promulgated in the Avesta, and characterized by worship of a supreme god Ahura Mazda who requires good deeds for help in his cosmic struggle against the evil spirit Ahriman)

The subtle "Sin of Righteousness" that Jesus (peace be upon Him) started to tell us about over 2000 years ago, but that He could not tell us about at that time, because we "could not bear" to hear about it then.

Quotation From The "Gospel of John" - Chapter 16, verse 12

For as Jesus (peace be upon Him) told us over 2000 years ago, as recorded in
Chapter 16, verse 12, of the "Gospel of John",

          "I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now."

Such is the great problem of all of us in our age, my dearest loving brother Ellis, the subtle "Sin of Righteousness" that we have all fallen into in our age, as members of all of the great religions of the world in our age, as members of Christianity, of Islam, of Judaism, of Hinduism, and of Zoroastrianism, a subtle sin of seduction that Jesus (peace be upon Him) warned us about, but could not help us with then, in the age of Jesus (peace be upon Him).

Because now only in our age, at this point in the story of the "Oneness of God and True Man" within each of us, can we be cured, through our "Oneness with" God within us, of this subtle "Sin of Righteousness", if we will only find, accept, realize, and join as "One with" the "Gift of God" for our age, that Jesus (peace be upon Him) told us about, over 2000 years ago.

And that Jesus (peace be upon Him), and God within Him, has now personally sent to us in our age, to each of us living in this age, to the Children of God for this age, if we only want it, and learn to properly use it, if we learn how to do "nothing properly".  Amen.

Quotation from the "Gospel of John" - Chapter 16, Verses 7 to 15

For as Jesus (peace be upon Him) told us over 2000 years ago, as recorded in
Chapter 16, verses 7 to 15, of the "Gospel of John",

----- beginning of quote from "Gospel of John", Chapter 16, Verses 7 to 15 -----

"Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not
away, the "Comforter" will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send Him unto you.

And when He come, He will reprove the world of sin, and (the world) of
righteousness, and (the world) of judgment:

          1)  (Reproving the world) of sin, because they believe not on Me;
          2)  (Reproving The world) of righteousness, because I go to My Father, and ye
                    see Me no more;
          3)  (And reproving the world) of judgment, because the prince of this world (of
                    darkness) is judged.

I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, He will guide you into all truth: for He shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He speak: and He will shew you things to come.

He shall glorify Me: for He shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you. All things that the Father hath are Mine: therefore said I, that He shall take of Mine, and shall shew it unto you"

----- end of quotation from "Gospel of John", Chapter 16, Verses 7 to 15 -----

And such is the "Gift of God" for our age, my dearest loving brother Ellis, the Gift of the "Comforter" that Jesus (peace be upon Him) promised to send us, over 2000 years ago, and that now Jesus (peace be upon Him), and God within Him, has now personally sent to each of us living in this age, if we only want it, if we will only realize it, understand it, accept it, and use it, by joining as "One with" God with it, and in this way, learn about the things that Jesus (peace be upon Him) could not yet teach us about before, because we "could not bear" to hear them.

But now we can hear them, now we can bear them, and what Jesus (peace be upon Him) couldn't tell us then, in His age, because we were not ready, the "Comforter" the "Spirit of Truth" can tell us now, in our age, because now we are ready, can now tell us that God is "Oneness", that Man is "Oneness", and that God and Man are "One", that in truth God and Man are the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, the "Oneness", that when we realize, understand, accept, and join as "One" with that "Oneness" hidden by God within us, then allows the story of that, of the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, to be told by God within us, and we germinate, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us.

Which is like when the apple seed buried within the earth, which in truth is the "oneness" of the apple tree and the apple" hidden within it, realizes, understands, accepts, and joins as "one" with that "oneness" within it, allowing the story of the "oneness of the apple tree and the apple" to be told within it, and it germinates, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God, which we look at in our ignorance and call an apple tree, and happily eat its fruits, but which in truth is the finger of God pointing to the "truth of us", and to the "truth of God" within us, and to what each of us must truly do with out life, before we die to the "outside" of us, if we too are to become truly successful in our own lifetime, which is the true gift of the apple tree and its fruits, because then, if we do at least that much, at least as much as an apple seed, then God will do everything else.  Amen.

In this way, realizing that in truth we are the "Seed of God" buried within the Creation of God within us, and that God within us is the "Seed of True Man" hidden by God within the "Seed of God" buried within the Creation of God within us, and in this way, we are "God happening" within the Creation of God within us, and God within us is "True Man happening" within "God happening" within the Creation of God within us, within the "Earth of God' within us. And as such we are "One', each of "us" within us, and God within us, and True Man within God within us, are "One" within us.  Amen.

And such is the "truth of us", and the "truth of God" within us, and the "truth of True Man" within God within us, if we will only accept this "Gift of God" for our age as coming from God within us, as coming from Jesus (peace be upon Him) within us, and from God within Jesus (peace be upon Him) within us, and not get stuck just on the "outside" of us, not get "stuck in our past", or stuck "in our present", or stuck "in our future", just on the "outside" of us, but also open ourselves up to what God has hidden within us, to show to us, when we are ready, just like He shows the apple seed what is hidden within it, when it is ready, because God can do anything, and God can come to us in any way that He wants, to teach us, to love us, to make us successful in our own lifetime, both then and now, like coming to us then, over 2000 years ago, as Jesus (peace be upon Him) on the "outside" of us, and coming to us now, in our age, as Jesus (peace be upon Him) within us, and as God within Him.

And in this way, we must not only believe in what Jesus (peace be upon Him) told us over 2000 years ago on the "outside", in His age, but also believe in what Jesus (peace be upon Him) is telling us right now, in our age, both within us and on the "outside" of us, and then our life will be truly successful in our lifetime.

And in this way, believe also in what Jesus (peace be upon Him) is telling us now, in our age, through the life and teaching of God for our age, through the life and teaching of our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), and now through His Children, through the Children of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with each of Us), and now through this child and through this beautiful letter from God within all of us, to all of us, my dearest loving brother Ellis.

For just like the apple seed, the apple tree, and the apple fruit are in truth One, so are we, so God, and True Man, and each of us are in truth "One", if we only want it, as you and this child, and this child and you, are "One", my dearest loving brother Ellis, if we
only want it.  Amen. 

The choice is truly ours, not God's.  May we both choose for it to be "One", and then God will truly do everything else, to make it so, both within us and on the "outside" of us.  Amen.

And as such, we must start to live as "One", we must start to pray to God as "One", and we must start to come together to pray to God as "One", no longer living, or praying, or coming together as "separate from" God, or as "separate from" each other, or even as "separate from" the Creation of God within us, that God has both personally and ever so lovingly placed within each of us, as the "Earth of God", as what the "Seed of God" within us must be planted within, by God within us, when we are truly ready, when we truly want it, when we truly want to become "One with" God within us, before die to the "outside" of us, and now, in this age, as we weren't over 2000 years ago,
now we are all ready, even if we don't know it, and even if we don't want it.

Because now this is our true heritage, now this is our true birth right, the true heritage and birth right of each one of us living in this age, because God has now made it so for our age, not because of anything that we did or did not do, but because of the infinite Love and Mercy and Compassion of God within us

Now this is so, now this is the age and the choice, now nothing else matters, nothing else applies, no matter what we may thing or believe God has said in the past, or think or believe has happened in the past through God, for now this applies.

For now this is the "condition within the condition" that has always applied, this is the "law within the law" that has always applied, this is the "rule within the rule" that has always applied, this is the "teaching within the teaching" that has always applied, this is the "commandment within the commandment" that has always applied, and this is the "Word within the Word" that has always applied, but that we were not yet ready to hear and apply, but now we are ready to both hear it and apply it, by joining in partnership with God within us, by starting to live, pray to God, do duty to God, and to do all of this both within us, and on the "outside" of us, as "One with" God within us, as "One with" each other, and as "One with" the Creation of God within us.  Amen.

For now this is it, this is what God wants us to do, this is what God wants all of us living in this age to do, to again become "One with" God within us, but this time with an understanding of that "Oneness", before we physically die to the "outside" of us, this is what we must now do, not what we may think and believe has come before from God directly, or from God through any and all of His 124,000 Prophets, or Heavenly Beings, or Lights.

And in this way, this is our last chance to correctly choose, to correctly choose between "us" or God, our last chance to get it right before we die, our last chance to knowingly and consciously make our final choice, and to get it right, to choose God within us over "us" as 'separate from" God on the "outside" of us, before it is all over, before we die in our current state as "separate from" God within us, and by default God has to make the choice for us, based on what we truly deserve up to this point, which is an eternal life as "separate from" God within us, based on how we are currently living our lives, which is "selfishly", based on what we have done up to this point of true value with our life, which is nothing.

With us up to this point living our life in the same way that the apple seed does, as the apple seed that doesn't germinate does, just waiting out its time buried in the earth to die, all the while trying to protect itself from the earth, from the very same earth that it truth it came to the earth to join, so it could tell the story of the "oneness of the apple tree and its apples", hidden by God within it, until it finally dies, until it finally rots in the earth, and is absorbed into the earth, only to be reborn 105 million times, but never again as the apple seed, never again as that which came to the earth, to join with the earth, to tell this story, to tell the story of the "oneness of the apple tree and its apples", the story that it has been created by God to tell, so that we may in truth see and hear that story, which in truth is "our story", and then do the same with our life, rather than rotting in our earth, and taking on our 105 million rebirths.

And if we end up this way, rotting in the earth of us, within our mind and desire, as the apple seed does that doesn't germinate, then for us, like the apple seed, this is not very good, for then God has to turn us over to His Angels (peace be upon Him), and then we must be processed according to Their Rules, as given to Them a very, very long time ago by God within us, and They will follow these Rules exactly, for that is what They do, for those of us who have made the wrong choice, and have given up an eternal life as "One with" God within us, and with the understanding of that "Oneness",
for a short temporary life of ignorance as "separate from" God within us, on the "outside" of us. 

And we don't want this, to end up with God's Angels (peace be upon Him), because They can't understand what we are capable of understanding, and our life has then been a waste, just like the life of the apple seeds that fail to germinate, because we haven't even come to understand what the Angels know (peace be upon Him), and our life has been a waste of what God has placed within us, which is God and all of "His Stuff", in order to complete God's purpose for creating us, in order to complete what God is doing within us, which is revealing God to God within us, for the benefit of all of His Creations, including all of His Angels.

In this way, this is our one last chance, our last chance to choose between God and "us", which in truth is the choice between either the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, which in truth is God and True Man within us, or "us" as "separate from" God within us, on the "outside" of us, for a short time, which then becomes an eternal life of "separation from" God.

And if we continue with "business as usual" on the "outside" of us, and then if we die in that state, then God will decide for us, and hand us over to His Angels (peace be upon Them) for processing, for a "no choice" is still a choice, a choice of "separation from" God within us, because after reading this letter, my dearest loving brother Ellis, we can no longer plead ignorance, we can no longer tell God,

          "I didn't know", or even "I didn't understand".

For now, after reading this letter, all we can now say to God within us, after it is all over, if that becomes our fate, is,

          "I didn't want it, Oh God. I didn't want an eternal life of Oneness with You, Oh
          God." 

This is all we can now say to God, after reading this letter, my dearest loving brother Ellis, if that becomes our fate. 

May we both realize this now, my dearest loving brother Ellis, without the slightest doubt, and truly step out in the direction of God within us, step out on the "Straight Path" of God for our age, this very moment, handing over to God within us all responsibility for making this happen within us, trusting with each breath, with each look, with each thought, with each action, that He will, both today and for every day, every hour, ever moment of the rest of our life.  This is prayer.  This is truly prayer in our life.  Amen.

Always realizing, when this become difficult to do, as it will, for such is the "Straight Path" of God both within us and on the outside of us, which is God "separating from" us all that is "separating us" from God, if we will only let Him, if we will only join Him to do this within us, in this "Grand Endeavor" within us, with "us" within us as "One with" Him within us, and do it before we physically die to the "outside" of us, and always realizing, that the alternative to this, which is everything else, is completely unacceptable, no matter what.

For if this alternative becomes our fate, my dearest loving brother Ellis, then we have in our ignorance given up all of this, given up an eternal life of "Oneness with" God within us, with an understanding of that "Oneness", for absolutely nothing.

We have given up all of God within us, and all of the "Stuff of God" within us, and the understanding of all of this within us for eternity within us, for absolutely nothing, for a short temporary life of "selfishness' on the "outside" of us, as "separate from" God within us, as "separate from" each other on the "outside" of us, and as "separate from" the Creation of God within us.

As "separate from" the Creation of God within us, which in truth is the "Earth of God" within us, that we think in our ignorance, like the apple seeds that fail to germinate, that we have to protect ourselves from, but that in truth we came to this earth world, to join with the "Earth of God" within us, with the Creation of God within us, to germinate,
so the story of the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us could be told by God within us.  What a waste. 

Such is our current life, our current prayers, and our current duty, my dearest loving brother Ellis, a life, prayers, and duty of "separation and differences" on the "outside" of us, a life, prayers, and duty that all needs to come to an end within us, through the grace, the wisdom, and the 'ilm or divine knowledge of God within us, so a true life, true prayer, and true duty as "One with" God within us can begin within us, before we physically die to the "outside" of us.

This is our work, my dearest loving brother Ellis, to join in partnership with God within us in order to start to  truly intend a life, prayers, and duty of "Oneness" with God within us, rather than continuing our current life, prayers, and duty, which in truth is not really wrong, but rather is a finger of God pointing to what can be within us, to what should and can be our life, prayers, and duty, as the story of the apple tree and its apples is not wrong either, but rather is also a finger of God pointing to what should and can be within us, if we will only place all of our trust and love in God within us, and not 
try to not hedge our bets, by trying to trust and love both, both God and the world that we currently see in our ignorance as existing on the "outside" of us.

A life of "separation and differences" that we are currently experiencing as "us" and our dearest loving brothers and sisters living a life of "separation and differences", a life of arrogance, karma, and illusion, a life of desire for earth, women, and gold, in the world that we see in our collective ignorance as existing on the "outside" of us, but which in truth is within us, which in truth is the worlds of hell and of evil that we have allowed in our ignorance to grow within us, and which now in maturity rule over us, as the 9 openings of our body, with God's permission.

Until we "see God and steady Him within us", allowing God within us to then "Cure Himself of us", of "us" as "separate from" Him within us, because then we no longer exist, we no longer exist as "separate from" God within us, because then God within us has awakened from His dream within us, and then "we" as "One with" God within us, and God as "One with" us within Him within us, will rule over them, over these 9 openings within us, will rule over everything within us, allowing the story of the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us to be told within us, to move forward within us, and to come to completion within us.  Amen.

Amen, Amen, Ya Rabil Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahman Alameen. Amen, Amen, Ya Rahim Alameen.  Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar.  Amen.

A life of "separation and differences", a life of sin, on the "outside" of us which in truth is just leading us to hell, leading us to an eternal life of "separation from" God within us, unless we get God within us to change it, unless we get God within us to personally intervenes, unless we get God within us to make "us" as "separate from" Him within us into His problem within us, not our problem on the "outside" of us,
unless we can get God within us to make our life, our prayers, and our duty, into His problem within us, not our problem on the "outside" of us.

Unless we join in partnership with God within us to start to use God within us, to get to God within us, unless we join in partnership with God within us to stop trying to use what God has discarded within us, to get to God within us, which is everything we currently see in our ignorance as existing on the "outside" of us, unless we join in partnership with God within us to start to exclusively trust and love in God within us,
and no longer trust and love in the world on the "outside" of us, in any way.

Unless we do, as our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) within us, and God within Him, teach us to do.  For example, as They teach us to say, to our Guru, to our Shaikh, and to God within Him, on page 11,  in the "Invocation To The Guru", in the beautiful book of wisdom, "The Pearl of Wisdom", with "us" joined as "One with" God within us,

          "To let grace spring forth,
          To let the darkness vanish,
          To let the love of Guru grow,
          And to let qualities be purified."

          "O Graceful Guru, give me a remedy.
          Swami, show us a way to dispel the darkness in the world."

          "For the Silent One to appear as Grace,
          To find the world as a tiny thing,
          To destroy sorrow which is a maiden,
          With help from the Master Guru's graceful way,
          Seek and learn standing on the path,
          And ask with a melting heart."

          "Let the body become the true mystery,
          Dominant with grace,
          Let the seed be destroyed,
          Blinding both eyes.
          Enshrine in thy heart,
          The lamp of Guru's graceful words,
          With a heart of love,
          See Aathi as a thing."

          "Spread the Guru's words with delightful heart,
          Unfurl the flag of Guru's words everywhere,
          Then the fate that accompanies thee
          Shall turn into dust."

          "My true and perfect pupils, gems of my eyes,
          Ask for the remedy in order to shine everywhere."

Such is our current life, my dearest loving brother Ellis, a short temporary life of "selfishness" on the "outside" of us, which if we don't correct before we die, will
become our fate for eternity, which if we don't correct by joining in partnership with God within us, will become our fate for eternity.

Unless before we die, we intend to give up our "working for wages" on the "outside" of us, we intend to give up our "working for wages" to get into some illusory heaven on the "outside" of us, and instead join in partnership with God within us, to make these intentions true within us, with "us" within us as "One with" God within us, in order to finish what God has started within us, a very, very long time ago.

If not, then what we currently call as our life, our prayers, and our duty, on the "outside" of us, will become our fate, after we die, will become our eternal life of "separation from" God within us, a fate destined by God for each of us in this age, if we don't truly step out in God's direction within us, before we die, or at least try.

Quotation from the "Gospel of John" - Chapter 01, verses 22 & 23

At least try to "Make straight the way of the Lord" within us, before we die, as "John the Baptist" told us to do over 2000 years ago, as recorded in Chapter 01, Verse 22 and 23, in the "Gospel of John".

          "Then said they unto him, Who art thou? That we may give an answer to them
          that sent us.  What sayest thou of thyself?"

          "He said, I am the voice of the One crying in the wilderness, Make straight the
          way of the Lord, as said the Prophet Esaias."

And in this way, my dearest loving brother Ellis, we must at least try, at least try to "become "One with" God within us, before we die, at least try to make this our true intention, before we die, and doing it not just for some "selfish" reason, like a place near God in some illusory heaven on the "outside" of us, but rather doing it for God's reason, for a truly "selfless" reason, a reason that allows us to quietly and peacefully disappear again into God within us, from which we have all come, before we die, doing
it only for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us.

Doing it this time, that is, becoming again "One with" God within us, with an understanding of that "Oneness", so it will never leave us again, an understanding that we can then spend eternity sharing with God within us, as "One with" God within us.  Amen.

And then God will do everything else, both within us and on the "outside" of us, when we turn away from our current "outside" of us, and turn towards God within us, and
only come together on the "outside" of us as "One", as the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, which is the "truth of us" within us, and the "truth of God" within us, that God has also personally and ever so lovingly placed within each of us.

In this way, with "us" within us as "One with" God within us, no longer living and
coming together as separate people, or as separate groups, praying in our separate ways to our separate God, on the "outside" of us, because God has none of this within Him, He has none of our current "separation & differences" within Him, because God is "One", and in truth, so are we.

So if we join with God within us, to move in His direction within us, to "Make straight the way of the Lord" within us, to walk with God within us on the "Straight Path" of God within us, then we too will have none of these things within us, none of this "separation and differences" within us.

So in this way, may we all join with God within us to begin to act this way, both within us and on the "outside" of us, to begin to act as "One with" God within us, to begin to act as "One with" each other on the "outside" of us, and to begin to act as "One with" the Creation of God within us, and then God will do everything else, then God will set about "Curing Himself of us", of "us" as "separate from" God, because then we no longer exist as "separate from" God, allowing God to again "separate from" Him all that "separates" Him from Him, but this time within us, and in this way, allowing "Us" to truly turn away from all of our "separations and differences". 

And that would be very, very good for all of us, for Jesus (peace be upon Him) within us, for God within Jesus within us (peace be upon Him), for God within all of 24,000 Prophets, Heavenly Beings, and Lights of God within us, and for "us" within us as "One with" God within us.  Amen.

My dearest loving brother Ellis, this is what Jesus (peace be upon Him) could not tell the Children of God in His age, over 2000 years ago, that the "Comforter", that the "Spirit of Truth" can now tell us in our age, that our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), and His Children (may God be pleased with each of Us) can now tell us in our age, that this child can now tell us, that each of us can now tell the Children of God for our age, because now we are ready, each of us is ready to both hear it and tell it, because for our age God has made it so, now we can trust and believe in it, accept it, and become "One with" it, if we like.

Because now we are ready. Now all that is left is our choice, to either accept or reject it, to either accept or reject the "Gift of God" for our age, the "Gift" what Jesus (peace be upon Him) told us about over 2000 years ago, and told us that He would later send to us later.

And now Jesus (peace be upon Him), and God within Him, has sent the "Gift of God" to us, for all of the Children of God for our age, because now we are ready, each one of us, are ready to realize, understand, and either accept or reject it, before we die to the "outside" of us. 

And the choice is ours, not God's because God has already made His choice, and He chose "Oneness with" us, and that is why we are now alive, that is why we are currently living in the world today, to make our choice before we die, everything else is just drama, the drama of "separation and differences" in the world that we see in our ignorance as existing on the "outside" of us.

May each of us join with God within us, and with the "Gift of God" for our age, with the life and teaching of God for our age, to make the correct choice, before it is too late, before we physically die to the "outside" of us, and in this way, again become "One with" God within us, before we die, but this time with an understanding of that "Oneness" so it will never leave us again.  Amen.

And may we all do this in our age by joining with the life and teaching of our Father,
Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), and His Children (may God be pleased with each of Us), do this by joining as "One with" this child and with this beautiful letter from God within us, do this by joining as "One with" God within us to do this "Heart's Work" within us, do this in order to share the wisdom of God for our age with all of our dearest loving brothers and sisters, with our family and friends, so they too can make the correct choice, before it is too late,
before we die to the "outside" of us, or before the "outside" of all of us is prematurely destroyed by "one of us", because in our age this can also happen. May God protect us all. Amen.

And in this way, giving each of them the opportunity to make their own choice about this important matter, not trying to make it for them, by not sharing this letter with them, by not sharing the "Gift of God" for our age, thinking that somehow we know what they need, but rather trusting in God within them, and letting them decide for themselves, as this child has done with you, my dearest loving brother Ellis.

For only then will we find peace in this child and in this letter, and with the "Gift of God" for our age, and find peace with each of our dearest loving brothers and sisters, with each member of our family and friends, by allowing them to find peace in this letter, in the "Gift of God" for our age, if they like, even if we don't initially find it for ourselves.  Such is true love.  Amen.

May we both learn to live this way, before we die, my dearest loving brother Ellis. 
Al-hamdu lillah. Allahu Akbar. All praise and praising belong to God, and to God alone. Only God is Great. Amen.

My love you (anbu), my dearest loving brother Ellis - Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler).

B.  Discourse 02 - "Bear Not Witness of Ourselves, But Only of God"

(Note:  this second discourse from God within us all, to all of us, is so important that it was made into the another Spiritual Letter, which you can access by clicking on the following: Spiritual Letter 70, "Bear Not Witness of Ourselves, But Only of God Within Us" (www.SpiritualLetter070.homestead.com), which provides us with a beautiful
further explanation of the "Gift of God" for our age, of the life and teaching of our
Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) within us, and of God within Him, and presenting them in the context of the life and teaching of Jesus (peace be upon Him), on the "outside" of us, and of God within Him, over 2000 years ago.  Amen)

Summary of Discourse 02:

Discourse 02 is about the "Choice" that each of us must make before we physically die to the "outside" of us, if we are to truly become successful in our own lifetime, the "Choice" to either "Worship Ourselves" on the "outside" of us, as "separate from" God within us, or to "Worship God" within us, as "One with" God within us, which is to become "One with" God within us, and about the "major obstacle" to making the "Correct Choice" in our lifetime, that is, to becoming "One with" God within us, before we die to the flesh, the "major obstacle" which is our ego, which is "us", the "current us", the "us" of living a life of "selfishness" on the "outside" of us, which is our current life of "separation and differences", as well as our current prayers to God, our current understanding of God, and our current duty to God, a life that we are currently living, and prayers, understanding, and duty to God that we are currently performing, which in truth are not acceptable to God within us, because they are being performed by "us" as "separate from" God within us, and by "us" as "separate from" our dearest loving brothers and sisters, by "us" in the world that we see in our collective ignorance as existing on the "outside" of us, but which in truth is a world of darkness, a world of hell and evil within us, that in our ignorance we have allowed to grow within us, and which in maturity now rules over us, as the 9 openings of our body, with God's permission, until we see God and steady God within us, for then God sets about "Curing Himself of us" within us, because then "we no longer exist" as "separate from" God within us, for then we only exist as "us" within us as "One with" God within us.  Amen   

Text of Discourse 02:

Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim. In the name of God, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate. Al-salam 'alaykum wa-rahmat Allah wa-barakatuhu kulluhu. Wa 'alaykum al-salam wa-rahmat Allah wa-barakatuhu kulluhu.  May all the peace, the beneficence, and the blessing of God be upon us all.  May God help us all.

My love you (anbu), my dearest loving brother Ellis - Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler).

Here is the second of the two beautiful discourses that have now come to "us", that have now come to "us" from God within us all, that is, from God within us, to this child, and to you, to you my dearest loving brother Ellis, and to all of our dearest and loving family and friends, that have come to all of the dearest and loving Children of God for our age, which is everyone of us living in this age, if we truly want it, that is, if we truly want to again become "One with" God within us, before we physically die to the "outside" of us.  Amen. 

And this second beautiful discourse from God within us all, along with the first beautiful discourse, which now together make up the new page 3 of 5 of this letter, have been beautifully prepared by God within us all in order to prepare us, to set the stage, so to speak, for the next few sections of this letter, which follow on Page 4 of 5, starting with
Topic 10, and ending with Topic 12, which are the very heart of this beautiful letter from God within us all, of this beautiful letter to each of "us" from God within all of us, this "Gift of God" for our age for the Children of God for our age, because Page 4 of 5 starts with the "Choice" that we all must make in this age, if we are to become truly successful in our own lifetime, and ends with the "Main Obstacle" to our correctly realizing and making that choice, and in this way, becoming truly successful in our lifetime, before we physically die to the "outside" of us.

In this way, the next section of this letter, on Page 4 of 5, begins with Topic 10, "Our Choice", and ends with Topic 12, "The Justice of God and the Sin of Righteousness", which focuses "us" on both the "Main Goal" of our life, which is to become again "One with" God within us, before we die to the flesh, but this time with an understanding of this "Oneness" so it will never leave us again, and on the "Main Obstacle" of our life, which is standing in our way to our reaching this goal, which is our ego, which is our own existence as "separate from" the existence of God within us, which is our current life of "separation and differences" on the "outside" of us, in ignorance of God within us, and in ignorance of what we have allowed to grow within us.

In ignorance of what we have allowed to grow within us, which as the 9 openings of our own body now rule over "us", with God's permission, rule over "us" as "separate from" God within us, until we "See God and steady Him" within us.

That rule over "us" as "separate from" each other on the "outside" of us, and as "separate from" the Creation of God within us, the Creation of God that God has lovingly and ever so patiently placed within each of us, as "His Earth", within which He will plant the "Seed of God" within us, and grow the "Tree of God" within us, and bear the "Fruit of God" within us, when we have proven to God within us, by our actions and not just by our words, that "we can be cured", that God can "Cure Himself of us" within us, after He "accepts us", after we have "seen Him and steadied Him within us", because in truth "we do not want" anything that God has discarded, to become "God within us.

And what God has discarded to become God within us, which He must do again within us, if we are to be cured, because the "cure of us is God" within us, what God has discarded to become God within us is everything we currently see in our ignorance as existing on the "outside" of us. 

Such is the "Main Goal" of our life, my dearest loving brother Ellis, which we must accomplish, or at least truly begin to accomplish in partnership with God within us, by realizing, understanding, accepting, and joining with, by becoming "One with", the "Gift of God" for our age, with the life and teaching of God for our age, which for our age is the life and teaching of our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen
(may God be pleased with Him) within us, and of God within Him, and of His Children
(may God be pleased with each of Us) on the "outside" of us, like this letter.

Such is the "Main Goal" of our life, my dearest loving brother Ellis, which is making straight the "Path of God" within us, the "Way of the Lord" within us, before we physically die to the "outside" of us.  Amen.

And such is the "Main Obstacle" of our life preventing that, my dearest loving brother Ellis, preventing us from reaching this goal, which is our ego, the main obstacle between "us" and "us" becoming "One with" God within us, the main obstacle which is "us" living a life of sin, a life of "separation and differences" on the "outside" of us, the
main obstacle between "us" and "us" realizing and making the correct choice in our lifetime, the choice of "Oneness with" God within us, for eternity, and truly making this choice before we physically die to the "outside" of us.

And another facet of the "Main Obstacle" of our true life as "One with" God within us is our current beliefs and practices, that our current beliefs and practices are already Ok, that what we currently understand about "us" and God, and what we are currently doing in relationship to God, that is, our duty to God, is just fine, that we already correctly believe in God, and correctly pray to Him, love Him, trust in Him, and do duty for Him.  So what else is needed?.

And Topic 12 also focuses on the "subtle sin" that we have all fallen into, in all of the religions, including Christianity, Islam, and Judaism, as another facet of the "Main Obstacle" to our "Oneness with" God within us, before we die to the flesh, which is the
"Sin of Righteousness" that Jesus (peace be upon Him) Himself warned us about over 2000 years ago.

That Jesus (peace be upon Him) told us over 2000 years ago was the one thing that He wanted to tell us about, before He died, but couldn't because at that time, we "could not bear to hear it", but that later, after He physically left us, He would send us the "Comforter", the "Spirit or Consciousness of Truth", who would come to us in our greatest hour of need, which is now, and would teach us about this most subtle of all sins, the very sin that in our ignorance we have all fallen in to, in many cases without even knowing it, about this "Sin of Righteousness", and reprove or gently remove it from us, if we will only accept Him, as truly coming from Jesus (peace be upon Him), and then let Him correct us, when Jesus (peace be upon Him) later sends Him to us, sends the "Comforter", the "Spirit of Truth" to us.

Which is what is happening now, my dearest loving brother Ellis, in our age, which in truth is the life and teaching of our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), and of His Children (may God be pleased with each of Us), which in truth is the reason for this letter to my dearest loving brother Ellis, and to all of the Children of God for this age.  Amen.

And the next section of this letter, as Page 4 of 5, begins with Topic 10, "Our Choice", describing the only true choice in our life, the only thing truly left in our life after we cut away the drama of our life on the "outside" of us, the choice that we all must make in this age, before we physically die to the "outside" of us, if we are to become truly successful in our own lifetime, realizing that a "no choice" in our lifetime is still a choice, a choice that is then made for us, by God within us, a choice we will most certainly live to regret, if God has to make it for us after we die.

And in this way, a choice which when truly understood with our wisdom immediately answers all of the most serious questions of our life, questions like "What is the purpose of my life?, and "Who am I", "Where am I", and "What is truly happening in my life?"

And the answer to our life is, that we must again become "One", but this time with an understanding of our "Oneness", we must again become "One with" God within us, and "One with" all of our dearest loving brothers and sisters on the "outside" of us, and "One with" the Creation of God within us, and we must do this because God is "One" within us, and God is "One with" everything, both within us and on the "outside" of us, and because in truth we are "Of God", and "Of what God is doing within us", we are not of the Creation of God within us, or of the elemental spirits that have grown within us in our ignorance, which we have in our ignorance become "one with". 

This is the answer to our life, we must becoming "One with" God within us, and "One with" what God is doing within us, which is revealing God to God within us, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us.  Amen.

And we must do all of this before we die to the "outside" of us, or at least truly begin it in partnership with God within us, as "One with" the "Gift of God" for our age, because after we physically die to the "outside" of us the opportunity to do this is over, the opportunity to become again "One", with an understanding of our "Oneness", the opportunity to become again "One with" God within us, and again "One with" what God is doing within us, is gone, because that is the way God set it up, that is the reason for the "outside" of us, that is why we are now alive living in the world that we see in our ignorance as existing on the "outside" of us, to correctly make the choice, the choice between living as "One with" God within us, and living as "separation from" God on the "outside" of us, and to make this choice while we still can, before we die to the flesh and God has to make this choice for us. 

May God help all of us realize this "truth of our life", that in truth we are the "Seed of God" buried within the Creation of God within us, we are "God happening" within the "Earth of God" within us, and the truth of God within us, that in truth God within us, as the "Tree of God" within us, is the "Seed of God's Fruits" within us, is the "Seed of True Man" within us, is "True Man happening" within the "Tree of God" within the "Seed of God" within the "Earth of God" within us, without the slightest doubt, before we physically die to the "outside" of us, all of which in truth is the story of the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us.  Amen.

And in truth this is prayer to God, this choice is our prayer to God, this choice is our true life, the only true prayer to God we can do, the only true life that we can live, as "One with" God within us, the prayer and the life of "Oneness", the prayer and the life of the "Oneness" of "us and God within us.

Not what we are currently doing in our ignorance on the "outside" of us, in the dream of us, in the drama of us, as "separate from" God within us, as "separate from" each other on the "outside" of us, and as "separate from" the Creation of God within us.  Amen.

Not what we currently call prayer to God, not what we currently call our life on the "outside" of us, which are all prayers and a life of "separation and differences", prayers and a life that say to God, that "I am a Christian and you are a Muslim", or that "I am a Muslim and you are a Jew", or that "I am a Christian, or a Muslim, or a Jew, and you are a Hindu, or a Zoroastrian (Fire Worship)", or any of the other subdivisions of prayer or life that "we" have made up, not that God has made up, that we have made up in our ignorance, in our arrogance, karma, and illusion, to please our mind and desire, but certainly not to please God within us who has none of this, none of this "separation and differences" within Him.  Amen.

No this type of worship or prayer, this type of life, is not acceptable to God within us, especially in our age, when God has given each of us everything, both within us and on the "outside" of us, that is necessary for "us", for each of "us", to transcend these thoughts and prayers and life of "separation and differences", thoughts and prayers and a life that are not really worshipping God at all within us, who in truth is "One with" everyone and everything, both within us and on the "outside" of us, but rather prayers and a life that are really worshipping "ourselves" on the "outside" of us, that are really only worshipping "us" and our dearest loving brothers and sisters as "separate from" God within us, as "separate from" each other on the "outside" of us, and as "separate from" the Creation of God within us.

This is our flaw, our only true flaw, and this is our current prayer and life, our prayers of "separation and differences", and our current life of "separation from" God, of "separation from" each other, and of "separation from" the Creation of God within us.

A flaw, a prayer, and a life that Jesus (peace be upon Him) started to warn us about, 
started to explain to us about over 2000 years ago, when He told us in the "Gospel of John", not to "worship ourselves" by forming into groups, calling us "this or that" group, as separate from other groups, because in truth we are all "One, we are all "The Children of God".

For in truth God is "One", and so are we, and God is the "One" that we all must
worship, as "One with" God within us, and "we" are the "One" who must worship God within us, as "One with" each other on the "outside" of us, and this is what we must believe about both God and about "us", this "Oneness", which in maturity within us is the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us.  Amen.

And in this way, to truly pray to God within us we must come together as "One" within us, as the "Prayer of the One to the One who Is" within us, and on the "outside" of us, if we come together to pray to God, we must come together as "One", all gathering under "One" tent to worship the "One" God, as "One Group", as the "One Religion of God", not as "separate groups", both "separate from" God within us and "separate from" each other on the "outside" of us.  Only this way of worshipping God within us, as "One with" God within us, and as "One with" each other on the "outside" of us, is acceptable to God within us, not what we are all currently doing.

Quote from the "Gospel of John" - Chapter 05, Verses 30 & 31

For as Jesus (peace be upon Him) tells us in Chapter 05, Verses 30 & 31 in the "Gospel of John",

          "I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and My judgment is just;
          because I seek not My will, but the will of the Father who hath sent Me."

          "If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true".

                                                                                                                                  - go to outline
Quote from the "Gospel of John" - Chapter 05, Verses 43 & 44

And further in the Chapter 05, in Verses 43 & 44, Jesus (peace be upon Him) teaches us,

          "I have come in My Father's name, and ye receive Me not: if another shall come
          in his own name, him ye will receive."

          "How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the
          honour that cometh from God only?"

In this way, when we separate ourselves off into groups, and define "us" in terms of those groups, define "us" as members of this or that group, as "separate from" other groups, with a common set of beliefs and practices, "separate from" the beliefs and practices of other groups, like as a Christian, or a Muslim, or a Jew, or a Hindu, or a Zoroastrian (Fire Worshiper), we are doing just that, we are bearing witness of ourselves, as "separate from" other Children of God, and we honoring one another as members of our designated group, as "separate from" other groups. 

This is wrong, and is not acceptable to God within us, for anything that we do in this context of "separation and differences" is against both God and True Man within us, is against the "Oneness" that is God within us, and is against the "Oneness" that is True Man within us, is against the "Oneness" of God within us and against the "Oneness" of "us" within God within us, is against the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, which in truth is God and True Man within us, which in truth is the very essence of God's existence within us, and of our existence within God within us, of "us" within God within us.

And in this way, our current prayers, our current life, as well as our current learning, and our current duty is wrong, and is not acceptable to God within us, because in this context, in our current state, with "us" living just on the "outside" us, as if we are "separate from" God, which is not true, as if we are "separate from" each other, which is not true, and as if we are "separate from" the Creation of God within us, which is also not true, with "us" not yet having shifted our focus off of the "outside" of us and onto God within us, all that we do is wrong, including our prayers and our life of "separation and differences", and our learning, and our duty of "separation and differences".  May God protect us from making this mistake, and open our heart to the truth of these words.  Amen.

Please forgive me my dearest loving brother Ellis if this upsets you or any of your dearest loving family or friends in any way, but it is the truth, it is the word of God within all of us for this age, for the Children of God for this age, and to be successful in our own lifetime we must accept it as such, and join with God within us to become "One with" God within us, and "One with" what God is doing within us, which is revealing God to God within us, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us.  Amen.

And we must do all of this before we physically die to the "outside" of us, or at least truly join with God within us to restart this journey up again within us, this journey of the soul within us back into the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us, but this time with an understanding of that Oneness, so it will never leave us again, which in truth is "Who we are?, in this way answering God's question of God within us, that was asked by God of God within us, a very, very long time ago, even before there was time within us, the question, "Who am I?" . Amen.

Quote from the "Gospel of John" - Chapter 05, Verses 19 to 24

For as Jesus (peace be upon Him) told us over 2000 years ago, as recorded also in the "Gospel of John", also in Chapter 05, in Verses 19 to 24, and as our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) teaches us again in our age, and as His Children (may God be pleased with each of Us) are teaching us right now,

          "Then answered Jesus and said to them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son
          can do nothing of Himself, but what He seeth the Father do: for what things
          soever He doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise."

          "For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth Him all things that Himself doeth:
          and He will shew Him greater works than these, that ye may marvel."

          "For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son
          quickeneth whom He will."

          "For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son.
          That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father which hath
          sent Him."

          "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth My Word, and believeth on Him
          that sent Me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is
          passed from death unto life."  Amen.

And each of us, my dearest loving brother Ellis, in this age, is this "Son of God", that Jesus (peace be upon Him) showed us an example of over 2000 years ago, if we like,
if our intention is truly to become "One with" God within us, before we physically die to the "outside" of us.

Quote from the "Gospel of John" - Chapter 01, Verses 10 to 14

For as God told us over 2000 years ago, as recorded also in the "Gospel of John", in
Chapter 01, in Verses 10 to 14, and as our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him) teaches us again in our age, and as
His Children (may God be pleased with each of Us) are teaching us right now,

          "He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knew Him
          not.  He came unto His own, and His own received Him not."

          "But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the Sons of
          God, even to them that believe in His name."

          "Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man,
          but of God.  And the Word was made flesh, and dwell among us, full of grace
          and truth."  Amen.

Such is the true nature of each of "us", my dearest loving brother Ellis, to truly receive God within us in our age, as Jesus (peace be upon Him) did in His age, and in this way to receive God's power to become the "Son of God" in our age, to become the "Word" make flesh in our age, and dwell among all those living in this age, as the Sun or Light of God to the world, in our age, as Jesus (peace be upon Him) did in His age.  Such is the true example of Jesus (peace be upon Him) for our age, to do as He did, both within us and on the "outside" of us, in our age, to make the story of Jesus (peace be upon Him) in His age, our story in this age.  Amen.

Such is the true nature of each of "us", my dearest loving brother Ellis, of "us within us as "One with" God within us, which is "Oneness", and the true nature of God within us, which is also "Oneness", as "One with" what we can truly become within us, in our own lifetime within us, which is True Man within God within us, which in maturity is the "Oneness of God and True Man" within us.  Amen.

With "us" within us as the "Seed of God" within the Creation of God within us, which when we join as "One with" God within us, as the "Oneness of God and His Creation" within us, becomes the "Tree of God" within the Creation of God within us.

And with God within us as the "Seed of True Man" within the "Seed of God" within the Creation of God within us, which after the "Seed of God" within us germinates, becomes the "Seed of the Fruit" of God within the "Tree of God" within the Creation of God within us, within the "Wish-fulfilling Tree" which in the Islamic tradition is called
the Katpaha Virudcham, which "contains the Power of God, the light of the grace-awakened wisdom of gnanam, from which you can receive whatever you ask for, whatever you think of".

With this "Seed of the Fruit" of God first appearing as the "Flower of Wisdom" on the "Tree of God" within the Creation of God within us, as the 6th level of wisdom within us, the wisdom of the Qutbiyyat or Power of God within us, the "wisdom beyond intellect that teaches, analyzes, and controls" everything within us, which if it is properly fertilized by the "Honeybee of God" within us, which is from the "Mountain Top" of God within us, which is the "Throne of God" on the top of our head, the place in our body that can support the weight of God, that is, fertilized by the "Primal One" within us, with the 'ilm or divine knowledge of God within us, allowing this "Flower of Wisdom" within us to become the mature fruits on the wish fulfilling tree of God within us.

And these mature fruits includes all of the religious scripts of all of the religions or paths of God that have come into the world, since Adam and Eve (peace be upon Them) came into the world, over 200 million years ago, including everything in the Old and New Testament of the Holy Bible, the teaching in the Jewish and the Christian traditions, and everything in the Holy Qur'an, the teaching in the Islamic tradition.

And the One who tastes the sweet taste of these mature fruits within us, which is the taste of God within us, and then distributes these "Fruits of God" to all of the Creation of God within us, for the benefit of all of the Creation of God within us, is True Man within God within us, who in the Islamic tradition is called Insan Kamil, or "Perfected Man".  Amen. 

May all the peace, the beneficence, and the blessing of God be upon us all.  May God help us all.

My love you (anbu), my dearest loving brother Ellis - Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler).
