AARTEE NAANI (INVOCATION)

BY PEER SADARDEEN

                   

eji sahetar deepme shaah, zaaher betthaa

O momins! our Lord is manifestly seated(on the throne) in the Arabian Peninsula
(physically or can also mean the centre of the two eye brows - bhamar goofaa 
or the third eye). Remember and worship Him in the evenings and mornings everday. 
Perform your invocations(prayers and supplications) to the Pure and Perfect
(na-klank, the one without any blemish).
The True Guide, Peer Sadardeen(Sohdev) has shown the Way.
The Guide of twelve crore liberated ones(Bargur - Peer Sadardeen) has shown the
(right) direction.

O momins! if one engages in the study of the Holy Qur'aan(athar ved - the last 
of the four vedas), he/she will know that the Mercy of religion is physically seated 
as the tenth manifestation of the Lord. 

[At a personal level, our body has nine 'gates' or openings viz a viz, two eyes, two
nostrils, two ears, one mouth and two outlets for bodily excreants(urine and stool). 
The centre of the eye brows is the tenth 'gate', where one experiences the Noor 
or light at the right time.]

O momins! when a person is fortunate to have the experience of enlightenment, 
he may have mystical experiences in the form of numerous musical sounds without 
any instruments. This will be incomprehensible to the wordly people(and hence must 
not be articulated to them).

will never attain the inner mysteries of life.
