SELF-DISCOVERY
SELF-DISCOVERY
THE POWER OF A
WILLING HEART
NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE
I
WENT TO A PAKISTANI
school in Karachi where even
the teachers do not know
English.
One day, I saw His Divine
Eminence Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi
in my dream. He was telling me,
‘You should learn English.’
The next day, I went to see
HDE Gohar Shahi and told Him
about my dream.
HDE replied, ‘Perhaps in the
future, you will be involved in
widespread of this mission. So I
want you to learn the language.’
So I started self-study.
Sometimes in dreams also, HDE
would tell me how to speak.
I worked really hard. I used
to go to the British Council
Library and a library in the
American Consulate in Karachi.
I would sit there for 5–6 hours
every day and read books.
The effects of that hard
work started to come up to the
surface. When I came to live in
England, I had an opportunity to
brush up my language skills. I
went to a college and then spent
three years doing a Proficiency
in English Diploma from
Cambridge University.
One thing is very significant
and prominent: when you
speak, every word must be
14
pronounced correctly. If you
do not pronounce it correctly,
people will not understand what
you are saying. When I first
came to England, I would speak
to people and they wouldn’t
understand me.I used to think
to myself, ‘I thought I learned
English.’ I used to go back home
and check in the dictionary
whether the word that I said to
them really existed; the word
was right but they wouldn’t
understand it because I was not
pronouncing it correctly.
NEVER GIVE UP
It is not difficult. Nothing is
difficult for a willing heart.
Nothing is impossible.
One day I was alone with
HDE Gohar Shahi; we were
travelling to South Africa by
plane. I asked HDE Gohar Shahi
about fate. I asked, ‘What is
fate? Everything is written
about our life by God; then why
should we waste our time when
everything is written?’
HDE said to me, ‘Some
decisions about your life are
pre-written. But as long as you
have a willing heart, then even
your fate will not disturb you.’
One day, HDE Gohar Shahi
said to me, ‘Never give up.’
This is an attribute of the
Devil: he never gives up. For
example, if a man becomes a
Friend of God, it is literally not
possible for the Devil to mislead
or misguide him. He knows that
the man is a Friend of God who
is under the severe protection
of God, but even then he does
not give up.
HDE Gohar Shahi said, ‘That
is what I like about the Devil: he
doesn’t give up.’
If you do not give up on
wrong things, you are a
stubborn man; but if you do not
give up on right things, you are
steadfast.
For somebody who really
wants to change his life, there
are many different classified
and unclassified resources
from where he can learn.

never go into a waste.
