They represent one example of the harvest of the crop known as the Shaikh-Disciple Relationship between His Holiness and His Children. For example, Bawa Quotations - Expanded Summary - List 02 includes "some" 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.

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 a Summary or an Expanded Summary of the Bawa Quotations as provided by the Children of His Holiness, for example, by our dear brother Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Louie Beutler).

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 - List 02. 4. As a Spiritual Letter or 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 Spiritual Letter 50, that references the set of Bawa Quotations included the following on-line document: (Note: the above rule applies to all "Lists of Bawa Quotations" and all "Summar 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 Spirituall Chat or some other document. Therefore, there is currently no Bawa Quotations - Summary - List 01, either or Expanded Summary for List 01, until we do a Summary of the of Bawa Quotations in Bawa Quotations - List 01, or write a Spiritual Letter or have a Spiritual Chat and wrap these Bawa Quotations 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 On-line "Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Library" (www.Bawa.homestead.com). 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.
