Every human being, from the time of birth to death spends life in two states. In other words, in the human mind there are two types of conditions that prevail every moment of our life. One of these conditions or state is wakening and the other sleeping or dreaming. In the wakening state, they are trapped in Time and Space while during dreaming they are free from the confines of spatiotemporal limitations. This freedom of Time and Space is sought through
muraqaba by converting the state of sleeping or dreaming into an awakened state. Because during
muraqaba, a person goes through the same conditions that he or she goes through while sleeping or dreaming.
For those who are more interested in practicing sufi meditation for spiritual growth, Sufi-Master Azeemi has created a 16-week step-by-step programme of Sufi meditation and respiratory exercises with
dhikr. Also included in
muraqaba are Sufi stories and case reports of
muraqaba students and others who have used the healing methods given in this book.
About the Author:
Born Khwaja Shamsuddin Ansari on October 17, 1927 in Saharanpur, U.P., India into a Sunni cleric household; young Shamsuddin saw first hand the superficiality of the legalistic outward religion. Growing up he had several encounters that provoked his interests in the esoteric religion. At the young age of twenty, he set out on the quest of finding a true
murshid (Sufi Master). That nine-year journey took him from his native city to places like the Patiala State, India and then to Lahore and then later Sadiqabad, Pakistan. Finally in Karachi, he arrived at the doorsteps of the Syed Muhammad Azeem a.k.a. Qalandar Baba Awliya (1896-1979), founder of the
Azeemiyya tariqah.
For well over four decades, Sufi-Master Khwaja Shamsuddin Azeemi has been helping millions of people through his unique style of Spiritual Self-Healing in which he blends parapsychology with centuries old Sufi meditation methods. It all began with his advise column in a newspaper and a weekly class on Sufi meditation at his home in the 60's. Couple of years later that small class on Sufi meditation turned into a huge gathering where people from all walks of life, age, gender and ethnic and religious background gather twice daily for
muraqaba session and through more that 35 books that he has written so far, many of which have been translated into English, Russian, Arabic and
Farsi.
