Question:
The Rūḥānī Dāk column is read with great devotion in our
household every week. Reading your published meditative exercises, we long to
benefit from them directly. I venture to write to you today in the earnest hope
of guidance. Some time ago, a meditative practice entitled "The Secret of
Beauty: The Red Rose" was published. I desperately wished to practice it
with your permission, but regrettably, the clipping was lost. I humbly request
you to publish the rose meditation once more, as my friends and I wish to
clarify several aspects:
1.
I belong to a Christian family; may an individual
from a Christian household undertake your prescribed meditations?
2.
What is the duration of this meditation, and what
degree of ritual purification is required?
3.
May women perform this practice during their
menstrual cycle?
4.
What should one do if intrusive thoughts arise
during meditation?
5.
Upon concluding the Red Rose meditation, may I
transition immediately into the companion meditation, "The Secret of
Attraction"?
Answer:
The Rūḥānī Dāk column is simply a vehicle dedicated to serving
the creation of Allah. Allah Almighty is not merely Rabb al-Muslimīn
(the Lord of Muslims), but Rabb al-‘Ālamīn (the Lord and Sustainer of
All Creation). Such is the divine order: when the sun shines, every creature
emerges from darkness to draw light; when rain descends, the entire earth is
quenched; when the wind blows, it does not discriminate between Muslim, Hindu,
or Christian—all receive oxygen in proportion to their capacity. A physician treats
all humanity alike; likewise, a spiritual healer exists to solace the grief of
all God's creation.
At
night before retiring to sleep, close your eyes and visualize that you are
standing in a lush garden filled with radiant red roses. Inwardly perceive
their fragrance until this subtle aroma fills your room so tangibly that others
may discern it. This contemplative practice may be performed by any person
regardless of creed or faith. Its maximum duration is ninety days. Women may
continue the meditation during their monthly cycle. If stray thoughts arise, do
not struggle to repress them; simply let them pass on their own accord.
