Whatever is gained in the third period, its reality becomes apparent in this period. These saints are called philosophers. Except for serving humanity, that is preaching and correcting morals of people, they do nothing.
USEFULNESS AND BENEFIT OF PRESENT DAY SPIRITUAL JOURNEY AND KNOWLEDGE AND WISDOM
There is no doubt at all that “Wisdom” is the virtuous and most exalted knowledge. The reality of things is gleaned through it: unfathomable secrets are known through it; right kind of intellect and perfect insight is born; souls become visible; one sees the Holy Prophet and exalted souls; the excursion to Alam-i-Misal and viewing of rays and illuminations take place; the power of knowledge and miracles is attained; control over matter is gained and over and above this, man gets the approach and proximity to exalted messengers and the Holy Prophet. But in my opinion even after attaining all these if any ARIF does not do anything positive for the welfare of the collective prosperity and well-being of Muslims he is useless for the Millat though having everything for himself.
The Millat does not need such saints who through charms and amulets get a few sick person cured and make him healthy or a few poor persons become rich through their prayers or some win their cases or some childless persons beget children and a few non-believers accept Islam and add to the useless strength and number of worthless people in the MIl lat. Nowadays we need such saints who can turn the most sinful and impious Muslim into true Muslim and a true Muslim, a pucca Mo min and believer in Oneness of Allah and through teachings and reflections can create such spirit of sagacity and produce which may demolish all their differences and dispute and wield them together as one soul and one body. They may differentiate between right and wrong and may learn to work and work continuously after giving up idleness and laziness. They should be full of love of Allah and Holy Prophet and should always be prepared to sacrifice their life and wealth for the revival of Islam and keep to Allah an Allah alone after shunning everything of the world.
