140 – Contemplating Creation – The Hikam – Shaykh Zahir Bacchus

In this episode,  Shaykh Zahir Bacchus covers the 140th aphorism of the Hikam  :

“He has given you to contemplate things made to exist, but not allowed you to stop with them: Say: ‘Look at what is in the heavens’
—opening to you the door of comprehensions, and He did not say: ‘Look at the heavens,’ lest He direct you to physical bodies.”
