Bismillah ir Rahman ir Rahim So people they always needed guide in reality, to show them how to live in this world. And that guide has to be one of their kind, to be able to sit, to talk, to tell them. That’s why the God sends prophets. They are not like us, they have high station in the Divine Presence. But they are made up from the same material as we. This way we will have familiarity with them. We will be able to sit and talk with them. Otherwise, God has the power to send us, not the prophets, but the angels. Instead of giving prophets, sending angels to us. So many people today running, searching, reading books here and there, and say, “look what the book says.” Muslim they said, ”go to the Quran,” Christians they said, “go to the Bible,” Jews they said, “go to the Old Testament, New Testament.” But then we said to them, “where is your testament? Why are you not going to your own book? Your book is here. (Shaykh Effendi pointed to his heart.) Judge things according to what is right, what is wrong. You are printing millions of books. Everyone has books now. We broke the protocol because we go through the books now. We don’t accept any authority, we don’t accept anybody who has the knowledge to speak to us. To accept, to sit down and think what he is speaking, is it right or wrong? Is it fitting me or not? Or is it fitting to my ego or not? We have that problem today because we all know how to read and write. We said we can go directly to the source and especially the Muslims, when they take the Quran, and they open it, and they start reading, by themselves, and they start putting their own commentary in it. They finding themselves on the other side and fighting with the mankind. But when we are taking that book, and we said, “this book didn’t really got sent down to us. It was sent down to that Prophet SAWS. And that Prophet SAWS through his saying, teach people how to live that book. So for us, we must take him first, his lifestyle. We must take him as a guide, that time we will be able to understand the real meaning, what is coming there for us and for all people, because that is also mentioned, all people, all other religions, is mentioned in that book
