34. The Message
34. 神聖訊息

The Sufi Movement is an embodiment, a body, which is being composed to deliver that Message which is the Message of God. Therefore my mureeds are the particles of that body, the organs; and the more they will realize that, the more they will know their responsibility.

蘇菲運動是一個具體化的體現，是一個正在形成的身體，為的是傳遞那神聖訊息——那是神的訊息。因此，我的門徒就是這個身體中的微粒、其中的器官；他們越能體認這一點，就越能明白自己的責任。

But so long as they will not realize, they will stand apart, in spite of all devotion, thinking that the Message is the work of the Murshid. But in fact it is not so: the Message is the Message of God, and you all, including Murshid, make the Embodiment. It is the Embodiment that is to give the Message.

但只要他們尚未體認這一點，即使懷有一切的奉獻，仍會置身其外，以為神聖訊息是穆希德（Murshid）的工作。然而事實並非如此：神聖訊息是神的訊息，而你們所有人，包括穆希德在內，共同構成了這個具體化的體現。正是這個具體化的體現，要將神聖訊息傳遞出去。

You all — including Murshid — are the servants of this Message. Our hearts have been connected in the link of initiation in the Sufi Movement; they are as one heart, and as one heart (is) offered to God, the perfection of love, harmony, and beauty, that it may become His shrine, and the need of the living God in the world today may be answered.

你們所有人——包括穆希德——都是這神聖訊息的僕人。我們的心，藉由蘇菲運動中的啟蒙之鏈而彼此相連；它們如同一體之心，而這一體之心被奉獻給神——愛、和諧與美的圓滿——使它能成為祂的聖殿，也使今日世界對永生之神的需要得以回應。

The more you will think, the more you will see the importance of the humble little work we are doing.

你們越深入思考，就越能看見我們正在做的這份微小而謙卑的工作有多麼重要。

However small our number, still the power behind is great, and trusting in that might, we are working. We do not fear, because of lack of material means. Our hope is in Him Whose Cause it is, and we shall work upon that hope. The wealth for us is God Himself.

無論我們的人數多麼少，背後的力量依然是偉大的；我們信賴那份大能，並憑著這份信賴而工作。我們不因物質資源的匱乏而恐懼。我們的希望寄託於祂，因為這是祂的志業；我們也將憑著這份希望繼續工作。對我們而言，真正的財富就是神自身。
