Prophet Muhammad Brought The Religion Of Islam, The
Fourth Seal
The
third seal was brought by Esa the Christ. After The
Revelation was revealed and God’s Plan explained, the fourth
seal was opened by Prophet Muhammad. The symbol is (
)
which is the last part of the symbol OM (
).
With spiritual powers, his individual conduct, and sacrifice (
),
and also with his deep understanding of the society (
),
Prophet Muhammad established the ideal of the three previous
religions. He brought the Kingdom Of Heaven for a small group
of people in a small region of the world for a short period of time.
With Prophet Muhammad, the spiritual understanding was perfected.
***
The
spiritual message of Prophet Muhammad can be understood from the
very word “Islam”. Islam comes from the word “tasleim” which
means both to be surrendered and submissive to the Will of the Lord.
***
See,
Christ was still in the third seal. He was progressing.
He was learning about his missions. So when he was in the
Garden of Gethsemane, he said, “Father, can you take this cup from
me?” He still was not completely submissive there. He
did not want to go through with it. He was resisting the Will
of God for him. The symbolic meaning of the crucifixion is to
realize that we cannot resist the Will of God.
Who wants to be crucified? It hurts putting nails through your
hands and feet, and to be left hanging there to die of thirst,
especially if they give you vinegar instead of water. That is
not very enjoyable. So he did not want to go through it.
He was not submissive, but he realized right away that that is the
way he had to go. He had no choice. He had reached the
point where he had to fulfill that part of his mission. That
is why the next thing he said was, “No, Your Will be done, not
mine.”
So the next lifetime, when he came back, he brought the religion of
submission or surrendering. We can see the connection there.
He learned how to be submissive in that lifetime. The next
lifetime he was submissive and surrendered to the Will of God.
He learned that lesson forever!

The life
of every Prophet is a miracle. It explains that there is a
hand, there is a Spirit behind them that is guiding their lives step
by step. Of themselves, they are regular people. They
look like each of us. But there is something special about
their lives. Something happens in their lives that shows that
there is a Spirit guiding them to the point of eventually feeling,
“Yes, I have no choice. God is calling me to do this work for
Him, and I have to do it.”
When you reach out and say, “I am from God and I have this message
for you”, everyone starts laughing and says, “Who are you that God
chooses you? Why didn’t God choose me?” I would say, “Do you
want the job? You can have it.” [all laughing]
But a lot of people think it is an ego trip. This is something
that is a wonderful thing, it does not happen to anyone. But
when he comes and says, “Hey, I got it. This is what God wants
us to do,” they say, “Oh, no, no, we do not want to hear anything
about that. Do not tell us what to do.”

Prophet
Muhammad probably had the same problems as every Prophet and
Messenger have. People expect to receive and receive and
receive. They are never satisfied with receiving things.
But Prophet Muhammad refused. He said, “No, I did it the last
time. In previous lifetimes, I healed you and healed you and
healed you. At the end, everyone left me, and none of you were
really healed, so what good did it do? I healed you for a
while and that spirit left, but then seven more came and made you
more miserable [Matthew 12:45 and Luke 11:26]. Now you have to
learn how to heal yourselves.”
***
So
Christ learned that lesson very well in that lifetime. He also
eventually realized that he did not help the person. That
person’s state became worse than before, because that person did not
want to meditate. That person did not want to realize what he
had done in previous lifetimes. He was not repentant.
***
How do you heal
yourself? You heal yourself by realizing God, by realizing His
Commandments, and by realizing His Ways and following them.
If you want to heal yourself, just kneel down, go to God with a
humble heart and repent, meditate, and ask Him for forgiveness, and
you will see, you will start healing yourself. Repentance is
the beginning of healing. If people want to heal themselves,
they have to start to see that what they do is affecting themselves
and others.
***
That is why when Prophet Muhammad came, he never healed
anyone. But still he created a great religion of the world.
