00:00So the one whom takes a life in which to understand their nafs, their desires, their ego will
00:08begin to understand what really is an authority over them and that becomes the tariqah.
00:16So the first level of authority for the one whom sits and meditates, if the person is
00:21not taught to meditate now you see the danger, they will never think what is an authority
00:28over them.
00:30They think that they are servants of Allah .
00:33Or they found a shaykh and they say, I follow this shaykh, which is absolutely incorrect.
00:38The one who meditates and begins to study his ego realizes, no actually my vice, my evil
00:49desires, my wants, they are authorities over me.
