00:23and that by the grace of Allah I'm still in existence
00:27that to be nothing, to take a path of being nothing, to move towards the Divinely Presence
00:38and for every sickness Allah provides a remedy and a cure and for everything there is a sustenance,
00:48there is a food that as we are in the material world preoccupied with feeding the body, some
00:59feed the body even more than others, that's why they are plump, we are good at that but
01:08there is a sustenance for the soul and the soul is a companion within this body, body is
01:20merely a vehicle in which to carry, it carries that soul, the soul is the driver and the soul
01:28requires a sustenance and Allah in the Quran and through many holy books talks about Nakatullah,
01:36the camel of God and the story of the she-camel and which the people and the Prophet Salih
01:45had the she-camel and Allah said, I'll send this camel but you make sure that you give
01:51it access to water, we won't go into that but it's reality from Mawlana Shaykh's teaching
01:58is that it's our soul and that at every time in this earth as humans we are occupied, we
02:06feed it feeding the physicality and giving all of the physical desires and all of the
02:12physical wants and it requires more and more Mawlana Shaykh describes as insatiable appetite,
02:21as much as you give to the body desire as much as it's still hungry, eyes are hungry, it wants
02:28more, it wants more upon every horizon, it wants a new horizon of more material and more consumption
02:36and more devouring and that passenger in which we are neglecting is the soul and the soul like
02:45a camel can go very long but at point in time if the camel and the soul doesn't receive its
02:53sustenance it can begin to inflict the heavy toll upon the body. If that soul doesn't receive
03:01the sustenance it requires and it's a light beam and now alhamdulillah with a little bit
03:08of science and physics you understood the reality of light. You have form and that form is only manifesting
03:19because there's a light that's quantum. So there's a form when this form is manifesting even scientists
03:28can come and teach us now there must be a light. So there's a nur that light must be appearing
03:36and your form is manifesting. Then they went further and said if there's a light the source
03:43of that light must be a sound. Must be a sound for that light to be appearing because that
03:53light is making an energy. An energy is moving the light is appearing with the light you have
03:59formed so we're all just pieces of light. These atoms are moving fast making the appearance
04:06of a form. They break it and go all the way back. It's an energy. That energy is in existence
04:14by sound. So it means that those whom they're not feeding their soul, they're not feeding their energy,
04:22they're not feeding their light. One of the sicknesses that will be put upon the body is depression
04:31and anxiety. Depression and anxiety. In a world now where everybody suffers from depression because
04:41the leading medicines you see on TV it gives you an understanding of what people are going through.
04:48Otherwise they advertise it. Why they don't just give a few to the doctor's office but when it's so much
04:55that they can advertise to the millions and to the masses because shaitan knows when he distracts us
05:04from our light reality and our soul reality and our energy reality but only gives us the food of the body
05:14he knows there's going to be a depression and anxiety as a sickness. And he tries to offer a medication
05:21that take this medication to take away your depression. It doesn't take away the depression,
05:27it takes away your ability to think about the depression. And if it's so strong the medicine
05:33will make you lethargic. Where you can't think, you can't talk, you can't do nothing, your tongue sticks out.
05:40It didn't take away any depression. Means then the remedy where Allah describes, there is a remedy for every sickness.
05:50And the remedy for depression and anxiety has to do with the soul. That in our lives and in our busy lives
05:58and in this world when they're wondering why you people gather and sit on this carpet and you have to chant for so long.
06:04It's actually God's mercy to us that go to the, it's like a pharmacy, a heavenly pharmacy, heavenly doctors.
06:13Sit with them and that every cure will be given to you. But the cure from inside we believe fixes outside.
06:23External doctors, they only fix outside. They look and say, okay you have bumps, you need this medicine.
06:29Internal doctors, they understood that the reality inside has to be fixed. When the inside is fixed, you'll see the perfection manifest outside.
06:39So means then the sickness to be taken away from depression and anxiety has to do with the chanting and the feeding of the soul.
06:49As much as we can chant, as much as we can meditate and bring the energy of the breath, bring the praising upon the Divinely Presence.
06:59That as soon as you praise the Divinely Presence, that's the secret, is that sound makes energy and energy makes light.
07:08When you make no sound from your mouth other than bad words, yelling and screaming, imagine the energy it produces and the low level light that begins to manifest.
07:20And everybody, most people, 99% of the people who are not practicing spiritual practices, they are emanating a tremendously negative light.
07:31And as a result, they have depression and anxiety. Depression because the soul is telling the body, we've been sent here for a mission on this earth.
07:42We have a two-way ticket and shaitan is fooling you to think your ticket is one way. You come and it's finished. No, no, you are from paradise only for a material experience.
07:55You came for a short experience and your two-way ticket is to go back. So the soul is conscious of that, the soul is never ignorant.
08:04It gets its direction directly from Divinely Presence. The soul is telling that we have a ticket and this plane is boarding.
08:14We don't know the physicality, the soul knows that this plane has to go back. If we're not doing anything to prepare, it begins to put a panic upon the body.
08:25And that's the anxiousness, always anxious, always fearful, something must be wrong.
08:30Yes, something very wrong, that we're not giving any food to the soul. We're not giving any practices and any importance to the soul.
08:39And that soul is an eternal being. This physicality, it comes like a car and is parked back into the dirt.
08:48From ashes to ashes and dust to dust, it goes back. But the eternal being, the being of light and energy, it has its own sustenance.
08:58And alhamdulillah, tariqah comes and teaches and Mawlana Shaykh teaches that for depression and anxiety, alhamdulillah wa shukran lillah.
09:07Alhamdulillah wa shukran lillah. Every day alhamdulillah wa shukran lillah.
09:13We have it all in our awrad and those that don't have the daily awrad and wazifa is a reminder for them that say alhamdulillah means all praise be to God.
09:25All praise be to you. All praise. Where Allah describe, everything is praising me, but you have in the ears to understand except Ahl al-Tafakkur.
09:34In awliya Allah, they can hear the praise of everything in creation if Allah give them
09:39permission.
09:41The faculty of their soul, they operate from their soul, so it means everything is praising
09:47the Divine, it's just the ignorant mankind in the middle that says, no, I want to praise.
09:53As soon as we praise, as soon as we praise, say alhamdulillah, alhamdulillah, alhamdulillah,
09:59alhamdulillah, oh praise be to God, oh praise be to God and then that depression begins
10:12to be lifted, Allah says, you're correct, now that you're praising me, you have my attention.
10:20I'm the one who will send the medicine, the energy and the reality to that soul not to
10:26be anxious and not to be depressed.
10:29And then Mawlana Shaykh says that on top of alhamdulillah wa shukran lillah is put shukran
10:34lillah.
10:35That I praise you as if as all your creation is praising you and shukran lillah is that
10:42oh my Lord I'm thankful, thankful for my good health, thankful for my children, thankful
10:47for my family, thankful for what I have and thankful for what I don't have because what
10:53you're not thankful for, maybe Allah saved you from it.
10:58So it means continuous in our lives shukran lillah, shukran lillah, shukran lillah, even
11:02if it's 50 cents in your hand shukran lillah, it could be no hand.
11:08Everything in our life is to praise the Divinely Presence alhamdulillah and to shukran lillah
11:14and to be thankful for what God has given to us.
11:17We pray that Allah by alhamdulillah and shukran lillah to take away depression, take away
11:23anxiety, take away all of these sicknesses that are inflicting upon people.
11:28Subhana rabbika rabbil izzati amma jasibu.

11:40Amen.
11:41Ya Kala wa Ya Kala wa Ya Kala.
11:43Prophet ï·º described that Allah feel shy to leave the hand to come back empty.
11:52When we put our hand is that we're asking my Lord that please, that I'm coming to you
11:58I'm poor and you're rich and Allah never sent the hand to come back empty.
12:04That He fill it with light and fill it with blessings.
12:08That never you come to your Lord and that He send you away with nothing.
12:12Allah asking always, ask me, ask me and I give to you.
12:17Even that you take that and whatever God gives to you in your hand, you don't see it
12:21but it's a beautiful light that emanates from the hands.
12:25As soon as you take it and put upon your face, your face becomes illuminated from Divinely lights.
12:30Put upon your body to illuminate with Divinely lights and to take away difficulty.
12:35Inshallah.
12:36Inshallah.
12:37Inshallah.
