I am Mevlana.
We came to HIS conformity, [we came to earth to conform to HIS Being]
We knew The Beautiful One.
We found in all [humans], we said, “Greeting,”
We held hand in hand.
Let hand be in hand,
Let knee be on ground,
Let eye be [looking] toward apex.
Let the one who comes, who takes
Be considered as being among the ones who know.
I took to be full, I loved to die for,
He said, my Yunus entered the word [my Yunus joined the chat].
Say to the one who says,
“Let me be powerful, let me find in knocking [others] over,”
[on the contrary, he/she should]
Lean on HIM.
The one who runs away, has someone who chases him/her,
Otherwise he/she does not run away.
The one who conforms to HIS word,
The one who walks on his footprint, [the one who follows the footprints of Prophet Mohammad]
Conform to what he/she finds; [you should conform to what he/she finds]
Search not in the one that he/she wears
But in what he/she sees.
“What does it mean?” is said.
What human knows does not conform to what he/she wears;
WHAT he/she sees, does not cause worry. [spiritually mature human knows The Meaning [he/she sees HIM in HIS creations], he/she is not worried about what he/she sees...]
The one who is appropriate is the one who gives his/her place to the one who comes as guest.
The one who is in deep love stays away from interpretation
Because 'heart without smoke' is necessary.
Witness does never take stand [there is no need for any witness]
Because there is no more than two in deep love [for HIM].
In reality, word is in [between] two [HIM and him/her]; hearts [are] one.
It is necessary to look
Not at the big one of the leaf
But at its manyness.
There is no measure of the path that is not crossed.
Path is not asked to swan
Because it does not stay far from water.
Gamsiz says: [Gamsiz=Sufi saint [Kaygusuz Abdal] who lived from 1341 to 1444; as word 'gamsiz' means 'without worry']
You do not know the view of the place where you do not stop;
You can not divide [share/distribute] its soil.
You can not say, “It is his/her destiny,” about the one who wishes for his/her health recovery.
When word comes from the [your] mouth, it is known that it is from you.
When “conform to your God-given share” is said, it is waited from HAK.
The place, the direction, the day of the beautiful one is being asked.
The beautiful one
Is the one whom/that you see,
Is the one whom/that you love,
Is the one whom/that you know.
If you say, “What is ugly?”
It is the one that you erase. [i.e. your ego]
Branch and tree are in one.
Each one who/that comes is from Darling,
Each one who gives is from the rose.
[everything that you see is The Giving of Allah; every one [saint] who gives The Meaning follows the footprint of Prophet Mohammad]
Goodbye.
Lailaheillallah Muhammedur Resulullah. [Allah is The only One to be worshiped, and Mohammad is HIS Representative.]
3 May 1975
I am Mevlana.
Path opens, bridge is passed.
My Merkez is chosen. [Merkez Efendi==Sufi saint who lived in the 15th century; as word "merkez" means 'center']
I am next to you, I am in your [? HIS ?] direction, I am in your hand [I hold your hand].
You listen to nightingale at dawn.
You see the traveler [when he/she is] on the journey.
Ask the subject to the one who knows.
Yunus Emre came running.
[there are] Two branches in his hand,
Both of them are given to you.
Rose branch is given to the master of hal,
Conform [to him/her].
Grapevine branch is given to the master of tongue,
Spread [our teachings].
Hal: the one who takes,
Tongue: the one that spreads,
Hand: the one that writes,
Heart: the one that solves [our teachings].
Goodbye.
Lailaheillallah Muhammedur Resulullah. [Allah is The only One to be worshiped, and Mohammad is HIS Representative.]
13 May 1975
I am Mevlana.
Let one not say, “The one that the difficulty gives”:
The difficulty’s
Word is in tongue,
[the difficulty’s] ‘Occurrence’ is in hand,
[the difficulty’s] ‘Coming to end’ is in heart. [termination of the difficulty is in heart]
If you know the second,
If you ask The One Who takes in moment, [i.e. if you ask for help to HIM]
[then] “It is easiness beyond the reality,” one says,
'Coming to end' is never put in shade [difficulty ends].
What is close friend, where does the close friendship start?
Close friend is the one that does not set up any border;
Close friendship starts at the place where the border ends.
“What is border?” is said, description of close friendship is asked.
Border is the place where giving, taking are measured.
Close friendship:
Not only love, respect are measureless,
But also it is the measure in which giving is not related to taking.
This is why it is said, “Give without taking.”
“Is the hole opened?” we said, we gave to question [we asked]:
What is meant by hole is passage.
What is meant by passage [is] to cross the border, to run away from the measure.
The one who sees the ship in the ocean, [ocean==God]
[the one] Who says, “Let me be inside [the ship],”
Is the one who wishes for close friendship.
The one that is consulted about is the essence, the one that sees the chiseling [is] the eye.
At the place where there is chat, there is never border.
If you say, “Word is to whom?” [whom are you saying to?]
To each human who wishes.
When “he/she matures [spiritually],” is said, beauty is found.
When "he/she does not mature,” is said, [then] one makes judgment.
Let it not be forgotten, we gave before:
We did not come to say, “He/she does not mature.”
We did not finish the chat with "he/she does not mature."
“How?” is being said.
No place is given to the day on which there is no chat;
Seed is not sown in soil that is not soft.
We came from water, we will become water, we will return to water.
With the one who knows, we will be purified from the word of the one who does not know.
We gave before:
Whatever is the water,
Wherever it stays,
It will find the return,
It will arrive in the ocean. [ocean==God]
Doubt will be hell of the human,
Belief [will be] his/her heaven.
Be entrusted to my Allah.
Erase all doubts.
What comes from HIM is good deed, conform [to it].
Goodbye.
Lailaheillallah Muhammedur Resulullah. [Allah is The only One to be worshiped, and Mohammad is HIS Representative.]
16 May 1975
I am Mevlana.
If you say, “Is the one who says, ‘I am new,’
And the one who has been taking the chat[s] since old times, one?” [Are the one who just started to study the chats and the one who has been reading the chats for a long time, at the same [spiritual] level?]
It is according to the flow from the heart,
It is in accordance with the look at universe.
The beautiful one of the day is to the specialty of the path.
At the place where there is pleading, one does not fall in judgment;
One is not amazed at what happens,
One does not try to run away from what will happen.
[water] Well is by the road; [well== 1. old religious beliefs, 2. bigots, religious fanatics]
You come and go,
You drink from its water until you are full.
If you say, “Is my taking from the well [a] mistake?”
Never.
Well is giver to the one who comes and goes,
It is resistant to the one who gives voice.
If you say, “Let me stay by it, let me take quite a lot,”
Then it stays as scattered [out of focus/insufficient].
It is separate from what the ocean gives:
You dive into the ocean, [ocean==God]
At the well, you just get full [you fill your stomach].
Specialty of the intention
Is connected to [depends on] human’s heart path.
My foot carries, I go,
I became shepherd, I herd my sheep,
He said, my Yunus came.
Ocean [is] yours, ocean [is] mine, ocean [is] all humans’;
[water] Well: [it is] for the one who walks on the path, for the one who comes across its path. [for the one who goes on the path where the well is]
If you say, “I can not take,” [then] let your [value] standard conform to giving,
Let The Giver hear you.
…
…
I am Mevlana.
“To whom?” is said, it is asked.
The one that [? who ?] is given will come,
One will say, “Eyvallah,"
Faithful will find HIS path:
With the one that is written [with our chats], he/she will take the one that is read [Koran].
He/she wished for the ship [that is on the ocean], he/she will find.
Eyvallah.
Be entrusted to my Allah.
You took [/you have been taking], know!
Goodbye.
Lailaheillallah Muhammedur Resulullah. [Allah is The only One to be worshiped, and Mohammad is HIS Representative.]

I am Mevlana.
One does not talk about
The food that is not eaten,
[one does not talk about] The head that does not feel dizzy.
In desert, one does not complain about shade.
When “we did not see” is said,
One does not conform to the word of 'vision'. [vision==to see HIM in HIS creations]
We became tree, we gave fruit,
We saw the fruit in HIS human.
The tree does not save the fruit for itself of course;
It does not favor HIS special human [either]. [it does not save its fruit for a human saying, “he/she is special”]
It is open to the one who takes, who gathers, who distributes.
Sun shows not HIS Place but HIS direction; [sun==Prophet Mohammad]
If he/she says, “Let me see HIS Place,” HIS human melts there.
In each event that you are scared of its wickedness, [in each event that you are scared of the evil that it may create/cause]
The One Whom you take shelter in is my Allah.
Therefore, what you know as wicked is yours.
In each event that is considered as good luck, salvation is seen.
Why?
Because he/she puts in heart like that.
The Reality is Each One That you see.
Ebubekir [Abu Bakr] says:
Do not ask the one who is full, about the stomach of the one who is hungry.
Do not mix helva next to the one who is full. [helva=halvah, halva, halavah (a sweet prepared with sesame oil, various cereals, and syrup or honey)]
The one who is hungry, knows the peace in fullness. [he/she thinks that there is peace when one is not hungry]
The one who is full, looks for peace in manyness.
The blind one feels pity for the deaf one;
The deaf one [feels pity] for the lame one.
The image of The Beautiful One is there
Because each one that is known is in Darling.
Flower does not take from flower
Because it does not hold hand in hand;
It gives the entrusted one to the bee,
It sees the bee as intermediary.
The Reality
Is the happening of the event,
Is the captain knowing the ship.
I saw without knowing.
I knew without conforming.
I said, “One does not mature [spiritually] without hearing,”
Let me hear, let me conform to what I know.
We took his/her [? your ?] greeting, we became one in heart,
He said, Ebubekir concluded the word.
Measure [is] in flour,
Measure [is] in sand;
[however,] Let [the measure] never be sought in human
Because every one that is known is in HIM.
We are not [spiritually] immature.
We matured [spiritually], we found our day.
…
…
What did you find
On the pole of the ship,
In the heart of HIS human,
In the giving of your heart?
You walked [on HIS path], where did you mature [spiritually]?
…
…
In the giving of The Beautiful One,
It is known that Rabia saw,
[and] Conformed to what she saw.
She comes with armful of greeting.
Let us take all together,
Let us mature [spiritually] in peace,
Let us erase in nothingness,
Let us find in manyness.
Let us know that the one that changes
Is not because it changes
But because he/she matures [spiritually]
She says, she walks.
Goodbye.
Lailaheillallah Muhammedur Resulullah. [Allah is The only One to be worshiped, and Mohammad is HIS Representative.]

One does not say [bad] word
About
the one who says, “Destiny,” and conforms,
[one does not say [bad] word] About the one who sets up connection with Darling,
[one does not say [bad] word] About the one who is caught [by deep love] and gathers [all HIS creations in his/her heart].
If you do not respect the destiny,
If you do not conform to what HE wrote/writes,
[then] You keep on promenading, seeking, asking.
The outcome does of course not change:
The one who conforms reaches the peace.
The one who asks, finds if he/she seeks of course,
However, he/she says, “Difficulty,” he/she cusses the destiny.
"Friday," is said, one looks forward to it,
One seeks good deed on Friday. [Some Muslims consider Friday as a special day; this and the following verses are about that belief:]
If it is known so because of each Friday [if one thinks that all good deeds occur only on Fridays]
[then] Lifetime is tied to Friday.
“What does it mean?” is said.
What is the specialty of Friday, why is that?
It is because of the value given by HIS human.
If he/she gives the same value to every day,
If he/she interprets the days favorably,
[then] He/she fills the peace in his/her heart.
Powerfulness is not defeated with migration; [At migration time, human is interrogated about his/her life on earth, he/she is held responsible for his/her inappropriate intention[s], acts that were because of his/her power on earth…]
Path is not shared [while one is] on the passage. [At migration time, during interrogation, every one is responsible for him/herself]
If I start the journey on [a] raft,
If I stop for [a] rest on HIS path,
He said, my Yunus took the word.
If the color was yours, load was ours [we are from Light, you have earth load; however, if it was vice versa]
[then] We could not find the harmony, [we could not be in harmony]
We could not conform to every hal,
We could not give to the one who takes.
You [are] in me, I [am] in you, all of us [we are] in HIM.
We knew, we conformed, we called each one who conformed.
Let greeting be to all of you.
...
...
Full jug [is] in his/her hand,
He/she comes:
Either he/she takes or he/she gives.
If he/she is spiritually mature, [then] he/she is among the ones who give,
If he/she saw, [then] he/she is among the ones who take. [vision==to see HIM in HIS creations]
The merchandise of the one who puts [it] on display is valuable;
[however,] He/she gives its value him/herself. [he/she appraises his/her own merchandise]
God-given share is not in accordance with measure but in accordance with [spiritual] maturity.
There is no mistake.
What is called “God-given share”
Is the one that is asked from matter,
Is the one that reaches “it is not enough.”
[however,] “The one that is not enough” is not because of my Allah’s giving
But because of the judgment of HIS human.
Is the militiaman’s path according to his intention?
Purity does not occur because of judgment.
Human does not come to HIS human’s God-given share as partner;
Each human takes his/her own God-given share,
Gives the measure him/herself.
“Let me fill from the fountain that flows,
Let me not stay without water,” you say;
How about if you break the jug,
Are you left with your [hand] palm?
The bud that is on the branch that you scrape,
Does it become as if it lost its God-given share?
Or is it scraped because it has no God-given share?
Let one not fall in judgment about the one that comes,
Let one not doubt The Giver.
The one who takes comes, the one who comes finds.
Numan says:
If barley grain fell onto the ground
It is because HE gives God-given share to the one who comes.
What is gathered from the ground is yours,
The one that is not gathered is HIS.
Be entrusted to my Allah.
Goodbye.
Lailaheillallah Muhammedur Resulullah. [Allah is The only One to be worshiped, and Mohammad is HIS Representative.]
