Finally, the first time ever, I said it in words. poetry or not, its a breath, my first breath. :)
Words have never meant anything to me, till now. I find my self exhaled.........
Just saying it, has filled my heart with joy. it has set me free.
:))...tis the first piece of thoughts I ever wrote.
...hope to have more fun :)

kis sach ki tum ko chahat hai?.....

such woh hi nahin jo dikhta hai...
sach woh bhi hai, jo ghayab hai...

sach woh bhi hai, jo bikta hai,
sach woh bhi hai jo taib hai.

...kis sach ki tum ko chahat hai?

uss sach ka tum tou naam na lo!
uss sach ki tum mein taab nahin

iss sach ki chahat mein jee ker
dil shaad karo, aabad raho!

iss sach ki, tum ko chahat hai...
jis sach mein sach nakaam rahey...

jis sach mein taira naam rahey,
jis sach mein taira jaam rahey...

kis sach ki tum ko chahat hai!!!

Kashaf-ul-Mahjub (unveiling the veiled)

Fana (Noughting) follows Baqa(enduring) which alludes to the abiding with God of the now illuminated spirit in the state of servanthood(abdiat)
that is;

being filled with the light of devine attributes, while he remains his own essential humanity
Hujwiri explains this by the example of iron in afire: when the iron becomes red hot, it assumes the attributes of fire, from wahich it is then indistinguishable, and in that state may proclaim "I am fire"
But the latent link with its essential reality of ironness is not sered, and in seperation from the fire it appears once again with its limited being.
Hujwiri sums up this exposition in his characteristic sentence, that
"the attributes of man are transformed, but not his essence".
Ofcourse, this is the necessity incomplete expression of a spiritual experience that is inexpenssible, but it has the great advantage of clarifying a doubt that has misled not only some mystics but whole communities.
