About "Summary of Bawa Quotations - by Lists" The "Summary of Bawa Quotations - by Lists" is made up of several different lists of "Summary of Bawa Quotations", with the Bawa Quotations coming from the life and teaching of our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased with Him), and with the "Summary of Bawa Quotations - by Lists" coming from His Children (may God be pleased with each of Us). For example, by our dear brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler). Each "Summary of Bawa Quotations - by List" represents a set of quotations that have been included in a Spiritual Letter or Spiritual Chat or some other such document that has been put together over the years by one of the Children of our Father, Shaikh Muhammad Rahim Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (may God be pleased by each of Us). For example, by our dear brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler), as he sat at the feet of His Holiness, studying the life and teaching of His Holiness in partnership with His Holiness. They represent one of the harvests of the crop known as the Shaikh-Disciple Relationship between His Holiness and His Children. For example, Bawa Quotations - Summary - List 02 includes a summary of all of the Bawa Quotations that are included in the beautiful Spiritual Letter 50, "And The Truth Will Set You Free" that was sent to Thomas L. Friedman, a Columnist for the New York Times, by Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler), on August 25, 2003, and Bawa Quotations - Summary - List 03 includes a summary of all of the Bawa quotations that are included in the beautiful Spiritual Chat 154 "If Two of You Come Together In My Name, I Will Be There", between Muhammad Muhaiyaddeen and Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler) on July 29, 2004, and Spiritual Letter 58, "Discovering The Fault Within Our Faults" that was sent to Muhammad Muhaiyaddeen by Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler), also in July, 2004. In this way, each of these "Summary of Bawa Quotations - by Lists" provide another way of reading each of these "Spiritual Chats" and "Spiritual Letters", as each of these "Spiritual Chats" and "Spiritual Letters" provides another way of looking at the "Bawa Quotations" included in each Summary as well as in each List of Bawa Quotations. In addition, a companion on-line document, "Expanded Summary of Bawa Quotations - by Lists" provides an Expanded Summary for "some" of the Topics in a list of Bawa Quotations while the "Summary of Bawa Quotations - by Lists" provides an Summary for "all" of the Topics in the same List of Bawa quotation. And for a selected set of these Topics we also provides this same information unbunded from the Home Page, that is, the Topic has an Expanded Summary that you can directly access using a separate URL or Web Address. For example, Topic 01 in List 02 of Bawa Quotations has an Expanded Summary which you can access directly, without having to first go to the Home Page for the Expanded Summary of Bawa Quotations - by Lists, or without having to go to the "Bawa Quotation - Expanded Summary - List 02" that includes that Topic.. For example, click HERE to directly access the Expanded Summary for Topic 01, that is part of "Bawa Quotations - Expanded Summary - List 02", if you like, without having to go to List 02. Then repeatedly click on the "Back" button at the top of your Web Browser to automatically return to this point in this document. Navigation using the Web Browser and the "Back" button really works this way, and it is a lot of fun. Try it. Also, if one wishes to review these Bawa quotations without reference to the Summaries provided by the Children of His Holiness, for example, by our dear brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler), and without reference to the Spiritual Chats or Spiritual Letters, also provided by the Children of His Holiness, for example, by our dear brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler), we have provided a "List of Bawa Quotations" which provide only the text of the Bawa quotations, with nothing else added to them by one of His Children. In this way, we can reference each set of Bawa Quotations in the following four ways, giving us multiple ways of looking at the same thing, the One thing, like looking at a gem through its many facets: 1. As a List of Bawa Quotations - with only the text of the Bawa Quotations (Click HERE to go to the Lists of Bawa Quotations - Home Page) 2. As a Summary or an Expanded Summary of Bawa Quotations - by List - with both the text of the Bawa Quotations as well as either the Summary or Expanded Summary of the Bawa Quotations as provided by one of the Children of His Holiness, for example, by our dear brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler). For example, click HERE to go to the Home Page for the on-line document, Summary of Bawa Quotations - by Lists, and click HERE to go to the Home Page for the on-line document, Expanded Summary of Bawa Quotations - by Lists. 3. As an Expanded Summary of Bawa Quotations - by Topic - which we can directly access by Topic, from any place, like from a Spiritual Letter or a Spiritual Chat, that references that Topic or the Bawa quotation or quotations that are related to that Topic. For example, click HERE to access an Expanded Summary of Topic 01, which has the title: "The True Nature of God Within Us - is Oneness", which is the first Topic in Bawa Quotations - 4. As a Spiritual Letter or Spiritual Chat or Some other Document - that references a set of Bawa Quotations, both a List and a Summary of Bawa Quotations, in the context of the document. For example, click HERE to go to SpiritualLetter 50, that references the set of Bawa Quotations included in the following on-line document: (Note: the above rule applies to all "Lists of Bawa Quotations" and all "Summaries of Bawa Quotations" except for Bawa Quotations - List 01, which was developed before we started the "Summary of Bawa Quotations" and started connecting them to a Spiritual Letter or Spiritual Chat or some other document. Therefore, there is currently no Bawa Quotations - Summary - List 01, or Expanded Summary, until God willing, we do a Summary of the set of Bawa Quotations in Bawa Quotations - List 01, or write a Spiritual Letter or Spiritual Chat around it. Amen) Also, we have provided a complete reference for each quotation, whenever possible, at the bottom of each quotation. Also, in some cases, we have provided a pointer to the source document for the quotation (e.g., "Pearl of Wisdom or Guru Mani: Forward"), also at the bottom of the quotation. Just click on the pointer to go directly to the source document, and use the "Back" button to return to the list or summary of quotations, or to the document you are reading, like a Spiritual Letter. We are able to do this when we have the source document for the quotation in the "Bawa Muhaiyaddeen On-line Library". As we get more source documents on-line we will add similar pointers to them from the quotations. However, in many cases the quotation comes from a personal experience with His Holiness, as part of the Shaikh-Disciple Relationship, and no reference is available except the life of the disciple.
