His words about the
WORLDLY LIFE
Our living in this worldly life, if we’re drowned in this worldly life – is all a game. It’s all imagination. When would we realize this? If we taste the batin of the hereafter, the batin of the worldly life – if we transcend, everyone to different degrees – that’s true life. Otherwise we are blind. The Qur’an says : “Deaf dumb, and blind; they dont exercise their reason” (2:171) Yaqiloon doesn’t mean just thinking rationally – two and two is four. This aql isn’t rationality. It’s a dimension of the batin of this dunya. The realm of the intellect. When you are deaf, dumb, and blind spiritually – yes you don’t transcend to that realm. When you are deaf, dumb and blind, yes you do not return to that realm. It’s all imagination. It’s all a game what we are doing. In this game you say “my spouse”, “my child”, “my certificate”, “i did this”, “i acquired this” – All this is a game. It’s all imagination.
You don’t own anything, in real terms.
You’re so drowned in this worldly life and you believe it. “People are sleeping, when they die they awaken”. When they die they become aware. Aware of what? All those 70-80 years they were sleeping, it was all imagination, it was all a game.
