My Children, If You Knew Your True Worth … | Bawa Muhaiyaddeen

Описание: Throughout history there have been saints and teachers whose words were not meant for a single place or moment, but for the hearts of people scattered across the world. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen was one of those rare souls. Though he lived in a small corner of the earth and spoke to a limited circle during his lifetime, the depth of his wisdom continues to reach people far beyond the walls where his voice was first heard.

Bawa often referred to those who were drawn to his teachings as his children. These were not children in the ordinary sense, but those who felt a quiet pull toward the truth he spoke about — the truth of the heart, the truth of God, and the truth of the human soul. Many who listen to his words even today feel that same mysterious pull, as though something in his voice recognizes something within them.

It is as if his guidance moves quietly through time, reaching those who are meant to hear it, wherever they may be. In that sense, Bawa’s children are not limited to a place or a generation. They may be anywhere in the world. Some may have never even heard his name before, yet when they encounter his words something within them awakens.

This video is offered for those children — wherever they are. Whoever you may be, if these words resonate within your heart, then perhaps this message was meant to reach you.

In this reading I share a passage from Bawa Muhaiyaddeen in which he speaks directly to his children about a truth that most human beings overlook throughout their lives: the incredible worth that has been placed within them. Human beings search endlessly in the outer world for peace, happiness, recognition, and fulfillment. Yet Bawa reminds us that what we are searching for has already been placed within the very depths of our being.

He speaks about the treasure hidden within the human heart — a treasure far greater than anything the world can offer. According to Bawa, the tragedy of human life is not that this treasure is absent, but that most people never realize it is there. We spend our lives searching outward, chasing the temporary things of the world, while the true source of peace and wisdom quietly waits within us.

In these words Bawa gently calls his children to look inward. He reminds us that the value of a human being cannot be measured by wealth, status, or worldly success. Our true worth lies in the divine light placed within us by God. When a person begins to recognize that inner treasure, their life begins to change. The search outside begins to quiet, and the heart begins to find the peace it has always longed for.

This reading is simply an invitation to listen carefully to that wisdom.

If these words resonate with you, take a moment to reflect on them. Sometimes a single sentence from a true teacher can stay with us for years, quietly working within the heart.

Perhaps this message has reached you for a reason.
