To benefit from the profound wisdom contained in the interview I conducted
with the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan (May 1, 2002) we must first fully
absorb what he taught about the relationship that must hold
between a student and his/her teacher. The word "profound," here, may seem
over used. Although it defines his wisdom it doesn�t have enough defining
power to adequately describe his wisdom, as you�ll see.
I was blessed to hear the Honorable Elijah Muhammad explain that the most
difficult of all teaching and training is developing spiritual power in
people. Most of us were not in a position to witness, or understand, much of
anything of the teaching and training that Master Fard Muhammad used to
prepare the Honorable Elijah Muhammad for his mission, even though it went on
right up until the time he departed from us in February 1975. If we did see,
we yet saw little or nothing. A major reason is that his preparation was for
his real mission, of which most knew nothing.
In Minister Farrakhan, we�re blessed to have the opportunity to learn many
aspects of the process by which this highly specialized teaching and training
takes place.
None will ever succeed, today, unless we travel the path, on which
Minister Farrakhan has and is traveling. This involves going under the
same teaching and process he is being guided through. The "success" I am
speaking of is the fullest development of the self.
Many of us resist or reject this teaching and training that develops the
divine spirit of self. Minister Farrakhan�s Study Guides prepares the way for
us to be elevated into the higher realms of the wisdom of God because, if
properly utilized, it clears the "gunk," or those emotions, that evil, or
otherwise faulty thinking produces, both of which are road blocks to the
growth of the divine spirit (powers) within us.
Minister Farrakhan has repeatedly stated, that the root to the solving of
the problems in our homes; in our communities or neighborhoods and throughout
this country; in this hemisphere and throughout the earth is spiritual in
nature.
Many things, in this world, have been made by people, who are very evil,
semi good or very good. But the Holy Qur�an teaches that before this evil
world came into existence there were great civilizations far superior to
anything we�ve seen in the last 6,000 years. The people were far more
righteous than the people of this world.
How far back in history would we have to go to find many, in the general
mass of people, capable of creating things? Unlike "make," to create is to
produce from nothing. The great spheres that compose the "universe" were the
creation of the highly developed spiritual powers of human beings.
Minister Farrakhan represents the introduction to the creative wisdom, of
which I�m here writing, which preceded this world�s existence and which will
continue on an infinitely higher level, after it�s gone.
Whether it�s learning how to drive a big rig; becoming a carpenter; flying
a jet; or cooking bread; becoming a barber; writing a book; playing a musical
instrument; becoming a doctor; running a bank; painting a house; building a
skyscraper; becoming a minister or a teacher, there are steps one must
be guided to take to succeed. There are certain areas of knowledge or skills
that one should not even be allowed to take, until the student has mastered
the prerequisites.
Ignoring vital steps, in learning any craft, guarantees failure. When we
have made efforts to learn, and at a certain point it�s brought to our
attention, that for whatever reason our learning has been misguided, we�re
confronted with a big time test of our character. Not to change our course
and come under right guidance is to continue on a road that will take you
other than where you thought you were going.
Once one learns that one is on the wrong course, one must then work hard
to unlearn the wrong, while learning the right way. Successful relearning
depends on key qualities such as humility and open mindedness. These are
qualities, of course, among those required for success, even when we start
out right. But these are especially needed while making the turn from the
wrong way. To make this successful change, we must be "brutally" self-honest.
That�s where Minister Farrakhan�s Study Guides come in, as they help us see
"the man in the mirror."
Many are ignoring fundamental principles of learning, not to think of the
newer principles that Allah has introduced for us to learn His present
wisdom, which Minister Farrakhan represents. None can blame Minister
Farrakhan, as he has laid it all out; the teaching; the way to understand and
use it to help self and others, in preparation for the wisdom of the
hereafter.
It�s written that God will introduce wisdom that eyes never saw, ears
never heard, and none ever imagined. So if you were God, what are the steps
by which you would guide people into your present wisdom? Then, what would be
the prerequisite subjects that all would have to take to qualify for your
future "out of this world" wisdom? Would these steps be related to the kind
of people with whom you would first start such preparation?
According to the Gospel of John, Jesus spoke of another coming to guide
"you" into all truth. The Jerusalem Bible says, "the complete truth."
The Amplified Bible uses "the whole, full truth." The
Phillips Modern English Bible: "everything that is true." Still
another says: "he will guide you into the full range of truth."
If this guide has come, why aren�t the scientists (physicists) seeking
from him what they call "the explanation of everything?" (Visit
www.writtentestimony.com.)
When we learn how a thing operates, or works, then we are in a position to
control it. These scientists seek to know and understand the controlling
mechanism, or the power out of which the universe was created, is maintained
and governed. They don�t look to the one Jesus said would guide "you" into
"all truth" for this answer. Why?
The extremely rapid changes, that have occurred over the last hundred or
so years, which are also accelerating, is a clear indication that an
irresistible force has been introduced into this world. This power is rapidly
forcing everything and everyone to change according to the nature of that
wisdom. Minister Farrakhan represents that power.
Verses 8 through 11 of the 55th chapter of Isaiah reads: "For my thoughts
are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," declares the Lord.
" ...As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than
your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. As the rain and the snow come
down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and
making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread
for the eater, so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return
to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for
which I sent it."
Allah is now exercising His spiritual power as never before, since before
the beginning of time, so said the Honorable Elijah Muhammad.
More next issue, Allah willing.
