6. <strong>The</strong> Subtlety <strong>of</strong> Ana<br />
It is located in the head, and is colourless. Dhikr (remembrance) <strong>of</strong> Ya Hu is its culmination. It, having<br />
gained spiritual strength, reaches and sees <strong>God</strong> unveiled, and manages to speak with <strong>God</strong>. This is the<br />
station <strong>of</strong> Divine Lovers. Besides this, some <strong>of</strong> <strong>God</strong>'s Favourites are also conferred on them, other Special<br />
Divine Spirits such as Tifle-e-Noori (Spirit <strong>of</strong> <strong>God</strong>'s Light) and Jussa-e-Taufeeq-e-Ilahi (Spirit <strong>of</strong> <strong>God</strong>).<br />
Understanding such Elites is beyond the power <strong>of</strong> intellect.<br />
Through the subtlety <strong>of</strong> Ana, <strong>God</strong> can be seen in dreams. Through the Jussa-e-Taufeeq-e-Illahi (Divine<br />
Sub Spirit), <strong>God</strong> can be seen in Transcendental Meditation (Muraqibah). And those that possess Tifl-e-<br />
Noori see <strong>God</strong> in the state <strong>of</strong> consciousness. (<strong>God</strong>'s image gifted to the Elite <strong>of</strong> the Elite, which are only<br />
seven in total and they are known as Sultan al Fuqra).<br />
<strong>The</strong> world knows them as <strong>The</strong> Might <strong>of</strong> <strong>God</strong>. <strong>The</strong>y may, on their accord, convey anyone to the Maqam<br />
Mehmud (<strong>The</strong> Station <strong>of</strong> Praise and Glory) either through worship, austerities, or through their Merciful<br />
Glance. Believer or disbeliever, dead or alive, matters not in their eyes. Just as a thief became a Saint with<br />
a single Merciful Glance <strong>of</strong> Abdul Qadir Jilani. Abu Bakar Hawari and Mangha Daku also became Saints<br />
following a glance from such Elites.<br />
All five <strong>of</strong> the Grand Messengers were, categorically, given knowledge pertaining to the subtlety they<br />
belong to, hence, Spirituality continued to grow in strength and quality. Whichever subtlety you will<br />
revive and engage with <strong>God</strong>'s remembrance, you will deserve to obtain Grace <strong>of</strong> the concerned Grand<br />
Messenger, and will be connected with him. Whichever subtlety comes under the <strong>The</strong>ophanies <strong>of</strong> <strong>God</strong>,<br />
you will be granted Sainthood concerning that particular subtlety. Access to the seven realms and<br />
acquisition <strong>of</strong> different grades in the seven paradises are also through the subtleties <strong>of</strong> the breast.
