Bismillah, "In the Name of God,"
Today is exactly one of the best memories for us. When I see you well-organized and rather sophisticated,
I feel myself full of proud. Let me explain the righteous reasons of my happiness.
We trust you because you know the
necessity of being punctual. You give importance on the quality of your works. You
compel yourselves to the best, the best but for the sake of God. This attitude keeps
you dedicated. Time is neither long nor short; it is always and always enough.
If we learn its sufficiency, we use it in a luxury way; as a result it gives us
fulfillment. Look at the sun as your lamp, and the earth as your home, and your
body as a treasure. Feel thankful for the breath, spring and even for death. My
helpful and respectful students, God loves us; let it be felt by your heart. Pray,
study and wait. Pray, think and wait. Pray, live and wait. Don’t panic, time is
enough.
There are few people to whom excitement
befit them. Since you have sincere intentions in the course of your duties, we
do benefit from them. Moreover, large amount of groups will benefit from them
in the future. Humanity needs passionate but kind, hardworking and diligent
ones who are aware of the responsibilities that they carry.
Finally, I want to share a quoted passage that enlightens me all the time.
BEST WISHES,
URGUR, TURGAY.
Question: We give
a price to people, who are like tray-bearers. So what price does God want. Who
is the true owner?
The Answer: Yes,
the price the True Bestower of Bounties wants in return for those valuable
bounties and goods is three things: one is remembrance, another
is thanks, and the
other is reflection. Saying,
"In the Name of God" at the start is remembrance, and, "All praise
be to God" at the end is thanks. And perceiving and thinking of those
bounties, which are priceless wonders of art, being miracles of power of the
Unique and Eternally Besought One and gifts of His mercy, is reflection.
However foolish it is to kiss the foot of a lowly man who conveys to you the
precious gift of a king and not to recognize the gift's owner, it is a thousand
times more foolish to praise and love the apparent source of bounties and
forget the True Bestower of Bounties.
O my
soul! If you do not wish to be foolish in that way, give in God's name, take in
God's name, begin in God's name, and act in God's name. And that's the matter
in a nutshell!
