Certainly most scholars will agree the single most important verse about
light found in the Qur'an is the famous Light verse (Qur'an, 24; 35). Within
it we find the mystical revelation of the essence of this Nur Mohammadiyya
and the central pillar of Quranic ascension mysticism.
God is the light of the heavens and earth,
The light like the light of a lamp in a niche
The lamp enclosed in a cover of glass
The glass like a glistening star
Kindled from the oil of a blessed tree
An olive not of the East not of the West
Its oil glows forth nearly without the touch of fire
Light on light God guides to his light whomsoever he wills
Allah strikes symbols for humankind
Allah in all things is most knowing
God is the light of the heavens and earth, Allah is Light and has created everything out of Light. Not only the light
we perceive in the physical world but the light we perceive spiritually which
supports all creation itself. When this light starts shining upon the regions of
the heart, the lamp of the heart will be lit. This light has a special quality or
effect and when ignited in the regions of the heart provides the spiritual
impetus to return to God.
The light like the light of a lamp in a niche This light has been placed in the heart of each being just like a light which
has been placed in a lamp which has been covered by a glass. It needs only a
touch of a saint to be lit or awakened.
The lamp enclosed in a cover of glass The glass like a glistening star
Is like a light within the heart which shines like a glistening star in the
middle of the night illuminating the darkness of the heart in all directions.
As the darkness is dispelled in the heart it now begins to radiate outwardly
with this First light. Since this light is...
Kindled from the oil of a blessed tree
It shines within the deepest recesses of the heart with such purity that
unleashes the lightning of divine discoveries. This lightening will generate
the thunderclouds of meaning, from
An olive not of the East not of the West
And shedding light upon the tree of discovery, so pure, so transparent
that…
Its oil glows forth nearly without the touch of fire
Nothing can compare to the experience of this divine luminosity which
defies rationale description, explanation and is at once an answer to the cry
of the soul within every being who comes into this world.
Light on light God guides to his light whomsoever he wills
As He who is All Light reaches down to touch our light with His light we
are divinely attracted back to our source which is the pre eternal light, first
Light, Divine Essence the Nur Mohammadiyya, through which…
Allah strikes symbols for humankind
Whose Prophets and saints are his signs or symbols which give faith,
direction and certitude and ultimately mediate our return to our original
Face, about which it is said "and to Him we are returning"…and
Allah in all things is most knowing.
God's wisdom is unlimited beyond comprehension apprehension or
explanation and the only path is to submit to the will of the almighty. It is
God who is the pre-eternal source of light, manifesting the being of the
Prophet out of this Light and then casting a light into those souls he seeks to
guide back to Him.
The Prophet reiterates this same thought, "God Most High created men in
darkness, then sprinkled on them some of His light."
God in his perfect wisdom created his saints from this same light who are his
living symbols ("strikes symbols") of his power and glory in this world.
Each of them has the obligation of knowing his Lord by coming fully into
the Light of Lights. We can then say it is only through these polarized Lights
of God his saints and Prophets that souls can return to God. Who then is the
true Shaykh? Rumi tells us, "The Perfect Shaykh is the absolute Light of
God,"
--------------------------------
My heart has become capable of all forms;
For gazelles, a meadow, for monks, a monastery,
A temple for idols, the pilgrim's Ka'ba
The Tablets of the Torah, the Book of the Qur'an
I profess the religion of Love, and whatever the direction Taken by
its mount, Love is my religion and my faith.
Ibn Arabi,

"It's with great sadness and affection that I hear the news of Mick Karn's passing today. My Love goes out to Kyoko his wife, his son Metis and Mick's unfailing assistant and close friend Debi Zornes who I had the pleasure to meet during the brief spell that Mick and I got to work together this past autumn. Mick's wry sense of humour, keen creativity and graciousness were there even in the times of most physical distress. May he rest in the lap of Compassion.
Till we meet again"
