Resulting in, along with what is above us, along with our very own thoughts, the state of our current life, of "us" living a life of "separation and differences", a life of sin, a life of "selfishness", on the "outside" of us, a life that we are now experiencing as "us" and our dearest loving brothers and sisters living in the world that we now see in our collective ignorance as existing on the "outside" of us.

Review - by Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler) Comments On Chapter 113 - by Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler) Outline of Comments: 1.

What is Within What is Above Us - is the True Shaikh and Disciple Relationship, is the Shepherd and the Tree, is Qutb Muhaiyaddeen Abdul-Qadir al-Jilani (may God be pleased with Him) and the Nur Muhammad, which is the "Holy Trinity" of Jesus (peace be upon Him) and the "Triple Flame" of Muhammad (blessing and peace be upon Him), which in maturity become the 99 potentialities of man, become the Asma'ul Husna or 99 beautiful names of Allah within us, become the Resplendent Rahman of Allah, the Ruler over here and over there. Amen 3. What is Below Us - is the world of darkness and our illusory body, are the 4 element of earth, fire, water, and air, that have fallen out of the state of the Kalimah, out of the remembrance of God with each breath, established within us by God within us, becoming now the 36 potentialities of man within us, which is the drama of "separation and differences", of "mine and yours" within us 4. What is Within What Is Below Us - is the world of souls within us, which will be re-opened within us, in partnership with God within us, once we learn to close down the world of hell within us, the world of jinns within us, and the world of fairies within us, in this way, with us becoming the 96 potentialities of man within us, with us becoming the tree and fruit of the "Justice of Kings" within us. Amen 5. What is Within Us - is this earth world or dunya within us, are the 18,000 Universes within us 6. What is Within The Dunya Within Us - is the next world, the hereafter or ahiraha within us, which we must join in partership with God within us, become "One with" God within us to reveal within us, before we die to the flesh, if our life is to become truly successful within our own lifetime.
