Separation from God

From The Golden Words of a Sufi Sheikh, Word#933.

The Golden Words of a Sufi SheikhIf we see separations among people, we will also see a separation between ourselves and God. When we act with separation toward other people, God’s qualities are separate from us.

When we separate from good qualities and good conduct, we separate from God. When we find ourselves separate from other social classes and religions, we are separate from the compassion of God. Whenever we see separation, it is a signal that we are separate from God.

Through the qualities of God, we must find equality and unity in our lives. The qualities are our peace, the undiminishing and eternal wealth of our lives, the treasure that will never perish. If we see this wealth, we will not see separations between races, religions, or colors. For everyone, there is one God, one race, and one prayer. This is the state that gives peace to the human race.
