One Truth

Invocation (of the Universal Sufis)

Towards the One
The Perfection of Love, Harmony and Beauty
The Only Being United with all the illuminated souls
Who form the embodiment of the Mother,
The Spirit of Guidance.
Amin

Omar Faruk Tekbilek - One Truth

There never was a people 

without a Warner having lived among them.

-Quran 35:24

And certainly We sent Messengers before you; 

there are some of them 

that We have mentioned to you 

and there are others whom we have not mentioned to you.

-Quran 40:78

Hadhrat Abu Zarr Gifaari (Radi Allah Anho) narrates

'The Prophets were 124,000.'

There is no truth but Truth

and the Prophetic Light

is Truth's messenger.

Ya Haqq!

For Unity of Faiths

May S/He Who is the Abba in Heaven of the Christians, Hashem of the Jews, Allah Most Merciful of the Muslims, Sophia of the Gnostics, Buddha of the Buddhists, Tao of the Chinese, Ahura Mazda of the Zoroastrians and Brahman of the Hindus lead us from the unreal to the Real, from darkness to light, from disease and death to immortality.  May the All-Loving Being manifest Him/Herself unto us, and grant us abiding understanding and all-consuming divine love.  Peace, Peace, Peace be unto all.
