Alif Lam Mim, The Great Book Isn't Difficult



Alif Lam Mim, The great book isn't difficult...
...for those who are righteous and ward off evil;
Let go off following the Satan of nafs, your evil ego;
And the book of knowledge will be perfectly clear;
When you cling to a hairbreadth of distinction...
...you will not vision the absolute unity;
If you want to realize the truth...
...bear in mind what is told by the Truth:
'We will show them Our Signs in the universe...
...and in their own selves...
...until it becomes manifest to them that this is the truth';
The struggle between good and evil must go on within your selves...
...until the disease of the mind is cured well...
...and goodness wins the fight;
Your effort in this regard is just grasping...
...the deeper meaning of truth;
The evil will then stop itself troubling the peace of your mind;
Your reality is as vast as the infinite space and time!
It is perfect and lacks nothing, you must believe in it;
Because you select your external nature...
...and reject the inner truth...
...you can't perceive your true nature...
...on which you really are born;
Don't get entangled in the ephemeral worldly things;
Don't lose yourself in the wilderness of emptiness;
Be at peace in the oneness of reality, and...
...all confusion of duality will disappear;

Asserting that the world of manifestation is real...
...you become a seer of the deeper reality;
Denying that the world of manifestation is real...
...you become blind to the one reality of all the things;
The more you think about the differences and distinctions...
...the farther you are from the truth of oneness;
Step aside from all thinking of plurality...
...you will find yourself the way to unity;
Returning to the root, you find the real meaning;
Go into appearances, you will get to their source;
At the moment you gain insight of the divine intellect...
...you transcend the outer appearance of the manifestation;
Don't keep searching for the truth here and there...
...the truth is nearer to you than your jugular vein;
Just let go off your deception and delusion!

For the heart in harmony with the reality...
...all duality and illusion disappears;
With even a trace of doubt about the book of guidance...
...you can never know the meaning of the verses of wisdom;
All at once you are free from ignorance about the reality!
With no trace of unreal images left on your mind!
All manifestation is real, true and perfect...
...in its being the manifestation of the powers of the Real!
In the world of manifestation, when you see its essence...
...you will at once say
' Nothing exists except the real! '
