Nothing
is constant around us, people change and so are their ideas. Many things were
regarded as important and then became trivial. One person might give you a
thousand images of one thing. There is no reference, that's why Einstein found
that everything is moving in nature, which made him relate everything to the
speed of light as the most constant thing he found.
In
the world of the human self nothing is invariable except your feeling, it's the
constant and reference you seek. By the feeling I mean the pure and natural
feeling within you, from which you evaluate everything and to which you resort.
When you listen to people's opinion and observe their actions you'll see that
they are constantly changing, so is your mind. Your feeling, however, has never
changed since you were a little child.
Look
within you for the things you took from you feeling, has any of them changed?
When people say that someone has changed, don’t believe that they have totally
changed, only their ideas were changed but their feeling is still the same. If
someone was generous and changed to be cheap, or was nice and became evil, such
person had their ideas changed but not their feeling. The basis of generosity,
for instance, is still within them, but they might have encountered people who
didn’t appreciate their generosity or even took advantage of it so they turned
to be cheap to adapt to their reality, but the natural basis of virtue is still
within them and hasn’t changed, and if you ask them they might tell you: I
haven’t found people who deserve to be treated generously!
You
feel that this constant within you wasn’t given to you by others, it's there
inside you and it's a self-regenerating energy like the Sun. All it needs from
us is to pay more attention to it, clarify it, and interpret it. The Quran
pointed out to this fact when it said : "Remind, you are only a
reminder" that is to remind them of what it's already inside them. God
didn’t say: teach them, He said: remind them. The Quran is only a means to
remembrance, as it says: "Remind; the reminder will benefit the
believers" and says: " you are not a dictator over them. So remind by
the Quran whoever fears My warning". He said remind by the Quran because
it's a means to remembrance. Thus, the constant basis isn’t the Quran, it's
your feeling through which you understand it.
You
shouldn’t mentally follow the Quran as you won't understand it, you'll
understand it through your own feeling and you'll find that it's in harmony
with it, for who created us and sent down the Quran is One. The Quran is a
means to remembrance and a remedy to our hearts.
You
understand everything through your own feeling, it's your constant and your
reference. Einstein couldn’t find a constant, but it's their within the human
self. Einstein said that everything in nature is constantly moving. The ship,
for instance, seems constant to its passengers even though it's actually
moving. If we say that the sea seems constant we'll find that it's also moving,
the planet is orbiting around itself and around the Sun, and the Sun is also
moving! Where is the constant then?
Einstein
related everything to the speed of light because it's constant. However, to
what Einstein related the speed of light? Everything must be related to
something. He related it to the constant within him because he couldn’t find a
constant thing in the Universe. He related the speed of light to something
bigger and more constant.
