The belief in the Unity of Being is not required for the realisation of fana and baga. Whatever is seen, heard or felt in mystical experiences is other than God; the- mystic should negate them and realise that God is beyond them, i,e., for fana, we need only the perception of One Being (tawhid shuhudi) so that we can forget the not-Divine.

Negate all that come to in vision and understanding even if it is the vision of the Unity in multiplicity. For the real Unity does not appear in multiplicity: what actually appears is a reflection or an image of that Unity, not the Unity itself, unless you reach wonder and unknowing, you will not attain annihilation.

The Sufi state of fana and baga is only a matter of experience, it has no existential significance i,e., passing away (fana) and abiding in God (baga) are experiential (shuhudi) not existential (wujudi) Man does not become God and is not united with Him. The servant is servant for everrand the Lord is Lord eternally.

Existence is not identical with Essence; the latter transcends existence, What God has finally revealed to me as an act of grace is that the first determination of the Divine Essence is Existence (wujud) which embraces everything and synthesises all contradictions, and which is pure goodness and abundant bliss.
