Buddha Was Closing His Eyes from Everything but His Lord

Mawlana Shaykh Nazim al-Haqqani

28 October 2009 Lefke, Cyprus

Dastoor ya Sayyidee, madad! Allahu akbar. Yaa Fattah. Ya Allah. Ya Rabbana rabbi 'ghfir w 'arham. Laa ilaaha illa-Llah anta khayru raahimeen.

Allahu akbar, Allahu akbar. Laa ilaaha illa-Llah. Laa ilaaha illa-Llah. La ilaaha illa-Llah Muhammadun Rasoolullah (s), Sayyidi 'l-awwaleen wa’l-aakhireen. Madad yaa saahib 'l waqt, madad yaa rijaalAllah, yaa sahib 'l imdaad, madad!

As-salaamu `alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakaatuh.

You are poor listeners and I am a weak servant! We are really in need of heavenly support. We are going to finish and vanish.

Laa hawla wa laa quwatta illa billahi 'l-`Aliyyi 'l-`Adheem.

Laa hawla wa laa quwatta illa billahi 'l-`Aliyyi 'l-`Adheem.

Laa hawla wa laa quwatta illa billahi 'l-`Aliyyi 'l-`Adheem.

O People! Don't trust yourselves, you are weak ones; trust only a representative of our Lord. He is the only one in the Divine Presence and he is over the whole Creation, authorized to order or to prevent according to the will of the Lord of Heavens.

O People! As-salaamu `alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakaatuh. This salaam is a heavenly support to you and to everyone. Therefore, Allah Almighty is ordering His servants to give us those holy words and to address to each other with as-salaamu `alaykum. That is not a material thing, but it is a heavenly gift that has been granted to weak servants. Therefore we are saying, as-salaamu `alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakaatuh.

Listen and obey; listen and follow; listen and learn; listen and try to be honored ones. Salaam gives to all Mankind heavenly support, heavenly honor, heavenly pleasure, and heavenly satisfaction. We may speak on salaam from now up to next week, it is never ending. O People! Give salaam to each other. Therefore, we are saying as-salaamu `alaykum. I am a weak one but when you are saying, wa`alaykum as-salaam, I am taking a support because the Lord of Heavens is giving support for His chosen people through salaams, coming and making it to go up.

O people, after salaam we are making a familiarity between ourselves. You are my Lords' servants and I am also a weak servant. I am one from your crowd and you are giving me through your wa`alaykum as-salaam a kind of support to address you; there is coming heavenly support. We are saying first of all to take away, as we can’t pray without ablution; we must be clean for praying. Also, when you are saying to me as-salaamu `alaykum, an ablution, a cleanliness is coming on me and on you. We are in need of an ablution. When you are saying a`oodhu billahi min ash-Shaytaani 'r-rajeem, it is a cleaning of ourselves. Then we may say, bismillahi 'r-Rahmaani 'r-Raheem, “By the Name of Allah Almighty, All Merciful, Munificent and Beneficent,” and we are beginning and at full speed we may go on. That means the way is open, go on!

O People! `ilmu 'l bahru laa yudraku, “Knowledge is an unreachable ocean,” that you can’t find an end and you can't find a depth. I am sitting here and from those endless, heavenly knowledge oceans, looking at something that is prepared for us now. I was trying to prepare myself for speaking and addressing people, but they are saying, “No need, finished. Trust on our heavenly power, and you should be in rest.” Today I am looking at what is coming and we may speak on it. Endless oceans of knowledge, Allah, Allah. O our Lord, O our Lord, we are ashaming. I am ashaming to ask anything because You are giving and giving, (and saying,) “Take as much as you like.”

Once upon a time, a sultan was inspecting his capital to see the position of his people. He saw one person, a blind beggar. He ordered his servants, “Take him to my treasure, give him a shovel and let him take how much he can carry on the shovel to be for him.”

That person was bringing a heap of gold and saying to him, “Take the shovel and take how much you can carry on it.” He may take it; it is for him.

That blind person is coming, saying, “What am I doing now?”

“Take the shovel and in front of you is a heap of gold.”

Yes. He was trying to take it, but he was using the shovel upside down. Nothing. He was coming a second time and trying once again. He was carrying that shovel, but nothing on it three times, and the sultan was saying, “What can I do if the Lord of Heavens is not happy to give to you? What can I do? But give something to him and send him away.”

Now so many people are coming and asking to hear, yes. Some of them are bringing shovels and their eyes are open, taking. Some of them are looking here, looking there and taking nothing; perhaps one or two words they may keep. But who is the looking-one, coming with a shovel to take from a heap of gold, to reach something from heavenly knowledge oceans, who is taking care to take? Some of them are bringing a little cup and taking from that ocean, some of them are bringing big cups and taking much more.

O People! O my listeners, you are listening to heavenly knowledge! Therefore, be careful! Such a message now, very, very, very rare! It is a grant from the Lord of Heavens to His servants because they lost the ways of Heavens. The Lord of Heavens is asking to show them real ways. I don’t know how many through east and west making naseehat (advise), such a declaration and advising people. Subhaanallah. That instrument in front of me, what is its name? Camera. The camera is listening more than people! It has much more care not to lose any word from me! This man-made instrument is taking and giving to you. How are you sitting there, hearing and taking nothing? What is that? Why is even one not taking? Perhaps one seed may be a big gigantic tree and grow quickly through your real being. Take care. Don’t say, “I don’t care.” If you are saying, “I don’t care,” heavens are saying, “We are also not taking care for that idiot one, ghafil, or heedless person. Even one word keep it, write it down. (You must be thinking,) “I heard today something that may be useful for me for a lifetime.” Therefore, please give a little bit of attention; that makes me speak much more clearly and easily.

O People! Marhaba (welcome) to who is listening and saying, “Well done!” and knowing that reality is speaking. I hope the Lord of Heavens and His representatives never giving wrong things. So many kinds of jewels are coming to you, that you may take just one or two and it is okay if you are not taking all. Everyone likes to have a treasure, yes it is true, but use your mind. Which treasure do you like for yourselves, a temporary or permanent one? You should say, “No doubt I like a permanent treasure.” Okay, what do you think if you are going to be mukhayyar (to have the choice), to leave it up to your will, O our Lord’s servant? For your life, are you asking to be granted a temporary life full of enjoyment, or a permanent life? Which of you will say, “I like temporary and not permanent?” Why you are not using your minds? All of you are running after temporary treasures! Why are you not running after permanent treasures? How are you using your minds? If a person is not using his mind, their level is under the level of animals. Yes, this is important. You must have a choice, to choose this or that. For everything, you must give that measure. (Ask yourselves,) “Am I prefering a temporary capital or permanent? If I am doing this, is it only for a temporary time or forever?” Use your mind, O Mankind!

I know nothing, but they are making me to address to you. No one can object on these words, even holy ones from popes, bishops, rabbis and other religious people. No one can be able to object on such a reality! Their objection coming on realities, not coming on me, no! I am someone who is only transferring to you from heavenly realities. Use your mind, and choose which one for you: permanent or temporary? (Mawlana claps his hands.) Mashaa-Allah. Where are our shaykhs? Where are our proud Salafi people? Where are our Azhari (al-Azhar University) people? Where are our Wahhabi `ulama?

Where are our Buddhists, proud chiefs, who are asking Tibet only to be for themselves? Make yourself independent first, then the whole world is going to be independent for you. So many people making their clothes like this. (Mawlana gestures sparse clothing.) Before 5000 years ago, giving nothing to them. I am asking that one, I know his name; I am calling, “Come and speak, what is your aim to be a Buddhist one? Why you are saying that your lord is Buddha? Which benefit is coming to you from him?”

Ask to them if that very small, unknown person [Shaykh Nazim], “What do you think about him?” Ask him, “What do you think about that servant?”

"Everyday, with a hammer hitting our heads, we can’t find any answer"

Now he is beginning to ask the leader, then he may ask Buddha.

Every statue of Buddha is sleeping. I am asking, why sleeping? They are saying, “He is doing meditation.” Sleeping people making meditation, what is that? For whom Buddha was making meditation, to himself or to someone else? Say, “Come to reality.” You must come or the power going on them. Don’t ask Tibet to be a free canton, through China or over India, no. You are not going to be changed if you are going to be under command of the Chinese government or Indian government. When you are going to be a free, Tibetan, Buddhist republic, what will happen? You are changing your clothes, changing your minds? No. Why you are objecting? You are asking Buddha if you are living in our ways, are you happy or not? You may ask Buddha. What is your opinion if you are asking a free Buddhistan, like Hindustan, like Turkistan, like `Ajemistan, like Afghanistan? What happened (when they became independent)? Nothing happened.

O People! This is a (spiritual) "whip" coming from the heavens. If you are not thinking on it, then coming on you. I am, therefore, giving a warning to you. Change your minds! You may dress any dress, it doesn’t matter, but you must change your mind and your understanding in front of real realities! Real realities coming from prophets and from heavens.

If you are saying Buddha was a chosen one from heavens, he warned you, but you are not understanding. He was closing his eyes from everything occupying man away from his Lord. Therefore, making to teach you and you are asking a Tibet Republic for Buddhist people? In which book is Buddha speaking this to you? He did it? No, never! May Allah forgive us.

Yes, O people, that they are making a weakest servant to speak. No one can object or face these real realities. No one can refuse or bring an objection. You can bring an objection, yes, but what is your point, I may ask? I made their proofs to be ashes! Someone bringing to me ashes and I am asking, “For what these ashes you are bringing to me?” I was keeping here, but some people bringing ashes for me. (Mawlana displays an urn.) What is the benefit of this, but I am keeping this to show people and their understanding level. Yes, look. You can’t eat it, if putting on eyes going to be blind, if throwing, ants running away! For what, this? People just lost their ways, lost realities!

Shaytan in countless ways making people to run after his false and wrong ideas. The leader of falsehood, Shaytan, asking to carry all people after his false ideas. Wrong ideas, never happened right ideas but touching imagination of people. So many schools of different ideas you can find. (Mawlana Shaykh mimics) “If you like to learn, pay some money, we shall take you inside to teach you something. First, how you are going to sit to make meditation.” Yes, they are saying this. Making people to leave reality, but people mostly they are heedless, only asking for delights of this life and nothing else. Leaving real treasure and running after temporary pleasure.

O People! You must come; time is over and the Last Day is coming. The Day of Judgment is coming. Day of Resurrection is coming. Beware, take your honor. Try to learn for what you have been in existence, or you should be regretting. O People! I am only a weak one, but the Lord of Heavens giving to you such an authority, speaking here! Through east and west people may listen, yes sir!
