Exalted, the Most High, the
Beneficent the Intensely
Merciful.

May the eternal Blessings of
Allah (swt) be upon
Muhammad (s.a.w) and his

Praise be to Allah, Lord of all
Creation, The Compassionate,
the Merciful, King of Judgmentday! You alone we worship,
and to You alone we pray for
help. Guide us to the straight
path, The path of those whom
You have favored, Not of those
who have incurred Your wrath,
Nor of those who have gone
astray.

"We shall show them our signs
on the horizons and within
themselves until it will become
apparent to them, that it is the
truth, is your Lord not
sufficient since He is witness
over all things?" (Qur'an Ch. 41
V:53)
As seekers of the truth, we
must consider the path toward
the inner more intensely then
what is reflected on the surface,
to penetrate the many degrees
until the core can be reached,
the inner truth, mirrored by the
phenomena and the
multiplicity within nature, in
the hope to discover, with the
guidance of Allah (swt), more
of the mysteries within creation
and the divine purpose of
existence.
But there is a way to approach
the inner sanctum of a thing,
the pristine core, and that is
through the proper entry. Allah
says in Surah Baqarah: (2:189)
"It is not Al-Birr (piety,
righteousness) that you enter
the houses from the back but
Al-Birr (is the quality of the
one) who fears Allah. So enter
houses through their proper
doors, and fear Allah that you
may be successful."
By investigating the deeper
meanings that emerge from the
hidden and more enigmatic
unseen realms, we are able to
better comprehend the subtle
movements behind an action or
event.
Events on earth are reflected in
events in the stars, when we see
the correlations that take place

unfolds. This increases the
depth of our faith and trust in
the Divine Plan of Allah (swt).
We begin to become more
'Godcentric'. God is the circle
and each messenger is a radius
that leads back into the center;
we cannot exist outside the
parameters of the sacred circle
because from the physical to
the atomic levels, we are in an
ocean of atoms. Our smallest
physical level is your atom and
it submits to Allah (swt). Within
its nucleus all the electrons are
circumbulating. This is the
'circle of life' and there is no
escaping it.
"The nature of God is a circle of
which the center is everywhere
and the circumference is
nowhere." Plato
The messengers are the Pillars
of Creation; they hold the 'circle
of faith' together, without them
there would be no circle. Allah
(swt) created everything in
creation only for the love of the
Ahlul Bayt (a.s). They deliver
the message as they are the
only creations who can 'handle'
and ground these energies into
the tangible world, the inner
secrets of creation and the
knowledge, if it were not for
the Imams (a.s), knowledge
would have found no claimer.
Even the mountains would
crumble in the presence of the
