Favour and kindness of the spiritualists and their inner glance is the sum-total of all the blessedness. It puts on track the distracted, and creates awareness in the God-wary people especially when their graceful glance is combined with their association.

Those who are God-wary, intuition does not benefit them. Intuition (Aashf) is also of two types. First is cosmic intuition which is totally worthless, the second is celestial which is enough for the job. No other kashf can vie with it.

Three things motivate the Mashaikh to educate and guide the people: First Divine inspiration, second, order of the Shaikh, third, kindness and compassion on the creatures. When the spiritualists see mankind going stray, they try to remove evils from them. Fear before the creatures is torment in Hellfire and terror on the Day of Judgment. Kindness is that the Mashaikh make it incumbent on them to motivate and exhort the public to adhere to Shariah, but not that to persuade them to aspire and seek unitive life which demands something else, but not kindness. It is something additional

To avoid illicit food and to be purified from all despicable qualities enhances yearning. Try always to shun illicit, and doubtful morsal. Blameworthy traits of the lower-self, like anger, bad conduct, undue sexual appetite, and other sensual impulses should not appear. Unless you implore and seek Divine help, you cannot escape from such, baneful desires. Therefore, be always humble and meekly.

Unless you don’t get irradiation (sajalli) of His real Essence, you cannot be considered to have attained the state of Detachment (tafrid). The sign of this blessedness is that one becomes immune of all the temporal and celestial boons. And all kinds of inner states and contemplations are directed towards Abadiyya (abstract Oneness) and one is delivered from anxiety permanently. After the attainment of “Detachment”, it is futile to aspire contemplative ability.
