ONEness of HEARTs
VOLUME 3
Part 20

5 November 1976

(Question: On 7th, 40th, 52nd days following the migration of humans to after earth life, we perform some religious ceremonies for them to be remembered. Do those days have any importance for the deceased?)

I am Mevlana.
Let our day be filled with good deed,
Let our heart be filled with all [humans].
“Let our place be written to your God-given share,”
We said, we have been prayerful.

“Beauty is in the one who hears, who sees. [vision==to see HIM in HIS creations]
We knew thanks to coming [to earth];
We fell in love with the one who
Distinguished between the one who knows
And the one who does not know,” he said,
My Yunus took the word.
"The one who gives with hal
Does not fear difficulty.
The one who gives with tongue
Does not fear the path.
We fell in giving, [we kept on giving]
We dug each event.
We ran with the one who ran,
We got exited with the one who stopped.
We found salvation in flowing from heart to heart."

Three days are given to the one who gets used to,
Seven days [are given] to the one who works,
Forty days [are given] to the one who conforms,
Fifty two days [are given] to the one who gets mixed.
Days are counted like that.
“He gave puzzle, he knew himself, he saw himself,” is being said.
It is not puzzle,
It is the straight one of the event,
It is the eye of the one who migrates [to after earth life].
The one who gets used to, he/she gets used to migration.
The one who works, he/she gets ready for seven.
Forty, fifty two are the last phases of the preparation
And make his/her place come together. [make the spirit come together with its place]
“Does one not find his/her place in moment?” is being said.
What is meant by ‘his/her place’ is his/her post.
If hearing is not equal to vision, [vision==to see HIM in HIS creations]
It is not spread to the giving,
His/her record is not erased from the notebook.
I gave before:
My giving is in accordance with the measure of the matter. [I explain in accordance with earth measures so that you can understand]
If you say, “What is notebook?”
It is
What the destiny traces,
What HIS human solves on earth day,
Or what he/she calls, “I solved.”
It is the one that he/she takes from birth to his/her intention,
The intention that he/she puts in the basket.
Rain:
Its each drop falls from the sky the same.
Yet it takes shape at the place where it falls.
The one that falls in the ocean,
It disappears in the ocean.
The one that falls in the lake,
It becomes one with the lake. [it stays in the lake]
The one that falls on the ground,
It is the one that nourishes the life of the ground,
It is the one that feeds the ground and decorates [it] with flower.
Human’s migration is like that that too:
He/she finds his/her place.
He/she makes his/her place come into being
Not there
But here of course.

(Question: What you call “there”, is it earth?)

Matter, hal of earth.

“We took bunch and bunch of roses,
We saw HIS rose in hand, [? We saw HIS rose in human, ?]
We knew the beautiful one from HIM,
We loved crocus like that,
We gave heart to daisy. [we fell in love with daisy]
Each one that we saw,
We loved [him/her/it] at the place where we saw.
There is no measure of the beautiful;
The beautiful does not fit into measure.
The one who knows the new one [the new one==ONEness of HEARTs]
Does not get confused on HIS path.
Our path is not path of invitation:
It is the path of the one who wishes.
We are not from the ones who sieve,”
He said, my Yunus greeted.

Hal of earth sees,
HIS human finds the path.
Let my Allah be pleased with the one who comes-who returns.
One searched in all [humans],
Let him/her find in his/her life,”
He said, he sent heartful of greeting,
Hadji Bektas greeted.
“See the blind,
Protect your eye.
Hear the deaf, the mute,
Control your tongue. [do not break heart with your words]
Reach the rich of heart,
Own your heart.
You, know in him/her,
Find in yourself.
While planting corn,
While spinning wool,
HIS poor human knows while suffering,
He/she becomes the owner his/her love.
Do not ask about the [spiritually] mature one to the one who is degenerate.
Do not seek HIS path from shape.
Do not hurt the one who conforms.
Do not give smoke to the one who gives advice,”
He said, my Bektas greeted.

“Let
Our side,
Our direction,
Our heart
Be full.
Let the word of the one who is [spiritually] mature, come.
If it is said, 'Who is [spiritually] mature?'
Whoever he/she is,
Each path is one,
Each one who gives [HIS] path is pir.
If you took, your heart is ember.”
Yesevi came,
Presented the greeting to you.
Be equal to my good deed,
Take example from the tree.


Mix anger with honey;
Even that, is curative,
Even that, is loyal.
The one who sees grapevine as turned-away,
The one who sees earth as dim
Is the one who does not conform to The One That is inside him/her.
When he/she is like that,
Does he/she not search his/her place at migration [time]?
Does he/she not say, “Where am I?” until he/she comes to him/herself,
[until he/she comes] To his/her own essence.
His/her own essence finds
In three days,
In seven days,
In forty days,
Latest in fifty two days.
In that moment, he/she says, “It is my place.”
Heaven-hell is until coming there;
There, it is until peace.
“Is there sullenness there?” is said.
Of course there isn’t.
However,
There is his/her past with body,
His/her finding with [his/her] essence;
‘Settling of accounts’ between the past and the essence comes into existence.
“What is ‘settling of accounts’?” is said.
One took from a little,
One asked from a lot.
Human’s ‘settling of accounts’ occurs with his/her own essence,
Similar to how he/she finds with his/her essence.
Let my Allah not make our essence be mad at our word.
If word does not conform to what the essence gives,
‘Settling of accounts’ of the two, is human’s hell.
What is called as,
“Let our essence-our word be one,”
Is that,
He said, Yesevi greeted.

(Question: What is meant by ‘word’?)

Your hal, your intention.

(Question: Some numbers like forty, fifty two are given. Is there a notion of time there too?)

I already said: It is given in accordance with earth measure.
Account is settled in moment.

I am Mevlana.
We walked from hal to hal,


We stood on the path of the one who came-who went;
We asked each one who passed:
“There is heart, do we give?”
Do we ask each one who laughs?
Let
The one who knows, the one who does not know
Come,
Let one take God-given share from heart.
Let one take,
If he/she wishes
Let him/her present from human to human.
Path of earth is one;
To [for] the one who asks, heart is abundant.


I am Mevlana.
The bridge will of course be built, [bridge==bridge between saints and humans]
Bread will go around from human to human. [bread==ONEness of HEARTs, spiritual food…]
The One That exists will be known,
[spiritual] Immaturity will be erased.
All dust that is on love will be cleaned.
The seal that is divided, will become united.
Oneness fills with abundance.
Let them erase the doubt.
Let them never say, “Lie,” to the one that does not conform.
What is called ‘lie,’ may not conform to the [current] day;
[however,] It is example to the one that comes.


For birth, they say ‘corner,’
They say about our place like that.
We are tied, it does not untie;
We are joined, it does not bend;
We are displayed, it is not sold.
“What is the one that is displayed?” is said.
We displayed our love.
The one who brings love, takes away love.
Our display is full of love in every moment.
Our hal is HIS path.
Let us love-let us be loved,
In love, let us find every thing.

Be entrusted to my Allah.
You matured [spiritually], find.

Goodbye.
Lailaheillallah Muhammedur Resulullah. [Allah is The only One to be worshiped, and Mohammad is HIS Representative.]

[Texts written between square brackets and some punctuation are added for the sake of making the meaning clearer.]

LOVE, SEE & SHARE:

Love all HIS creations;
See HIM in all of HIS creations;
Share HIS Meaning.
