These Qualities of the Eternal represent a movement of awareness swinging forward in time (Al-Muqaddim) and backward in time (Al-Mu'akhkhir). Here we affirm and align with the Beloved's perfect timing in our lives. However, there are times when this is so challenging to do. For instance, when a loved one dies, or like during the COVID 19 shelter in place crisis, where the habitual movement of our lives is stopped in its tracks. A sense of helplessness may arise because of our lack of control. Rather than contract into this lack, we can choose to dilate our senses into the present where time seems to be suspended and stretched. We can sense time and life in a different way, a more spacious and slowed down one. There is a saying in the Bible, "Be Still and Know That I Am God." As we become more still our 'Source Sensing" ancient ability may be heightened and some insight for our lives may arise that helps us come to a healing completion or as Saadi writes, "prepares the way for power to flow through your life." (from the Sufi Book of Life)
