SELF-DISCOVERY
HOW TO PURIFY YOUR INNER BEING
B
small feat. In the past, Inner Baptism was
achieved only by the most dedicated of
seekers - after they had completed extensive
periods of austerity. However, thanks to the
method introduced by His Divine Eminence
Gohar Shahi, it is now practically possible for the
average person to purify their inner being.
His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi explains
that a human is a compound of many spirits.
Accompanying the Main Human Soul are six
celestial spirits and one evil spirit. Five of the
celestial spirits, including the Main Human
Soul, are located in the human breast; the sixth
celestial spirit is in the forehead. The evil spirit,
known as the Carnal Self (or Ego) is found at the
naval point.
All these spirits are floating in your
bloodstream and they all are unconscious within
you, for except the Carnal Self. The celestial
spirits are alien to this world; they each relate to
one of the higher realms, for except the Carnal
Self. The Carnal Self belongs to the phenomenal
world. This explains why, by default, the Carnal
Self is the only entity in you that has been fully
functioning since your birth. The Carnal Self,
being negative in nature, is the source of the
Original Sin in you. It is only through spirituality
that it can be turned towards God.
When you go through Spiritual Rebirth,
you awaken your Spiritual Heart, a celestial
spirit that is located near your physical heart.
Spiritual Rebirth is also known as the Opening
of the Spiritual Heart. When your Spiritual Heart
is awakened and engaged in the invocation of
God’s name, it becomes a factory that produces
divine energy. The sustenance of the celestial
spirits is divine energy; they need it in order to be
awakened, enlightened and empowered. It is also
the substance that will purify the Carnal Self. The
Spiritual Heart, when awakened, controls the
physical heart. When the heart is teeming with
divine energy, it, being a pumping station of blood,
mixes the divine energy into the bloodstream.
When this happens, divine energy will penetrate
every inch of your body. This is how the other
celestial spirits will eventually be awakened.
Unlike the celestial spirits, the Carnal Self
feeds on negative energy. Negative energy is
readily available to it when you sin because the
act of disobeying God generates negative energy.

‘Awaken and
enlighten
your heart
and it will rule
your body.’
APTISM OF THE INNER SELF IS NO
To obtain its sustenance, the Carnal Self pushes
you towards all sorts of unsavoury activities .
When your celestial spirits are enlightened
and your Spiritual Heart is constantly producing
divine energy, negative energy does not stay in
you. The divine energy coursing through your
veins nullifies it. Without its usual diet, the Carnal
Self begins to starve and becomes weak.
His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi explains
that at this point, your divinely anointed Spiritual
Guide will communicate with the Carnal Self. He
will offer divine energy to the Carnal Self; the
Carnal Self, in order to survive, will begrudgingly
take it. The Spiritual Guide gives the Carnal Self
divine energy for three days. On the third day, he
teaches your Carnal Self to invoke God’s name
to generate divine energy as a steady source
of sustenance. The Carnal Self then adopts this
practice in order to survive.
When divine energy is produced in the Carnal
Self, it begins to be purified and aligned with God.
When it is completely purified, it will no longer
compel you to act immorally. This is when you will
achieve Inner Baptism.
