Sufism as a philosophy is one thing and Sufism as the Message is another thing; and when you take the Sufi Message, it means the rain of this year, the rain of this season. And if a person says that the rain that came three years ago, from that rain I filled my tanks, and I have sufficient water to last for twelve years more, yet you still have an argument to make that the tanks which were filled by the rain three years ago, that water is water, and yet that magnetism, that electricity, that life, that vigour, that energy which is to be found in the fresh water coming from the sky is different, it cannot be compared. And if it was meant that the rain of five years ago or ten years ago must be the answer for the demand of the earth, then every season there would be no rain. Because it rains every year, that itself proves the theory that every year needs a rain. As it is necessary that every year there should be a rain, so it is also necessary that every cycle must have at its end God’s Message. Sufi Message therefore is not Sufi philosophy. Sufi philosophy is apart, Sufi Message is the rain of this season, it comes to answer the demand for the rain.

As it is necessary that every year there should be a rain, so it is also necessary that every cycle must have at its end God’s Message.
