Yes of course, that's why we also read the Mathnavi although Rumi was not an Ismaili.

The role of the Pirs is to show us the way to the Imam. Hence he also shows us how to pray to the Imam. The Dua is composed by the Pir for example.

Hence in the Ginans he will express himself sometimes as a person who has seen God or sometimes as a seeker

There is a Farman in which MSMS asked followers to study the philosophy of Mathnavi, though Rumi was not an Ismaili. BUT Pir Sadardin is an Ismaili Pir why not followers of Imam should read, study, reflect, and follow Bhuj Nirinjin.
Did present Imam discarded Bhun Nirinjin and asked murids not to read or recite Bhuj?

The current Dua is not composed by any Satadari Pir but by Professor Jawad Al Musqati (not a Pir).

Where have I said that we should discard Buj Niranjan? On the contrary have quoted verses from it to make some points.

In its final stages, it was discussed, finalized and authorized by MSMS at a hotel in Cairo.

Several people from Syria were involved in the composition of the new Dua, they even claim they composed under instruction of Mowlana Sultan Muhammad Shah and Mowlana Sultan Muhammad Shah approved. Syria Council was at that time under Pakistan Council so it is understandable that people there tried to take credit for the large contribution of the Syrian. Mowlana Sultan Muhammad Shah was Imam and Pir of Ismailis at that time, the task of approving the Dua came to him oviously.

I have objection that you discard Bhuj Nirinjin as a Ginan/Grunth. Your understanding is that it may not be authored by Pir Sadardin. You are following Dr. Ali Asani.

Professor Jawad Al Musqati was fluent in Arabic. He was a professor at University of Karachi, when he was given task of current Dua by MSMS. IT IS NO WHERE DOCUMENTED OR HEARD INVOLVEMENT OF SYRIANS. But it may be possibility that final draft was discussed with Syrians for Arabic text (double check).
Now important thing, apart from last sentence of Sajadah, When current Dua first introduced in Pakistan in 1960, there were some grammar mistakes which were corrected silently when a person from Pakistan indicated to President of then Ismailia Association (this is confirmed because he told me). Also, after some time few words and couple of sentences were removed and new induced. Beside this, raising hands in two parts were redirected.

Soul Medicine

Hi Karim,

For thousands of years, there have existed individuals who are capable of doing seemingly impossible things. Borderline miraculous feats that the rest of the world is unable to do.

From a group of monks in Tibet who are able to stand outside naked in sub-zero temperatures for days... to a terminally ill cancer patient who spontaneously heals themselves...

How is this possible? What hidden forces are they tapping into?

Today, I’d like to share a powerful “reality hack” I was taught a number of years ago that changed my life. It happened while we were filming a sage elder for a documentary we were making - and his words stopped us all in our tracks.

The short video below is the first segment of a free 3-part series that I’ve created for you called Inner Alchemy. These are some of the most transformative personal practices I’ve ever experienced.

In the above article there is no mention of a man claiming himself God. Essence of God is in every particle. Inside every person there is inner world, sleeping in subconscious, one has to awaken it.

This thread is not about anyone claiming to be God. It is about the potential and capacity of an individual soul and what can be attained by him.

This is just the first part which is an introduction. Wait for the other two parts which will follow soon.

The title of thread is 'can humans be God' of course NOT, they can claim to be god with small 'g' but not with capital 'G'. In explanation you used two words potential and capacity means a human can claim to be God. Historically those who claimed to be God their heads were in their feet and not stayed on their shoulders.

There is a huge difference between becoming God and claiming to be God. One can of course become God but it is wrong to claim to be God.

One who claims to be God sure his intention is to be God therefore he claims to be God. Nimrod and Pharaoh did, what happened!!?

You are trapped in your words.
If a person is unwilling to declare himself as God, then what is use of claiming to be God. What is the use of this exercise to become God. Insane person has hidden horns.

There is no trap at all! To elevate yourself and to become fana fi allah is the purpose of our existence, through which we attain peace and a complete understanding of the purpose and meaning of our existence.

However as indicated by our present Imam, we must keep that understanding to ourselves and not declare publicly. It can create misunderstanding especially amongst those who do not have background in esotericism or Sufism.
