Open up your heart and follow the clues it contains to find the treasure, Sing in ecstasy as each clue brings you closer to the treasure, On the path lie many gifts placed by the beloved himself, You may explore these gifts as you walk, Or you may soar and fly to the end, Those who are seeking gifts have not yet reached maturity, The journey is long and time is short do not be distracted, Do not stop nor hesitate to leave these gifts behind, Seek the one who bestows the gift, not the gift itself, Behold, after a long flight, you have reached the treasure, The treasure is the beloved himself, it is Allah! You have come to the bestower, the most generous Now sit back and relax, your days of travelling to him are over, Now it is time to travel and explore in him and be not! You have attained the never ending treasure, The gifts you once left behind were, but, mere particles of dust that had fallen of this chest, Explore now and ask for whatever you want, You may now be as you wish, you are protected from all evils, For you are with the beloved and the beloved is with you. As my master, Ash Shaykh Abul Hassan Ash Shadhili had once said, Be a gnostic, then be how you wish. -Abu Mawahib (08/02/14)
