QUESTION: I would like to know how much of our lives are predestined and how much we are responsible for? BAWA MUHAIYADDEEN: God has already taught you everything. It is all written within you. Before you came here, He told you, “I’m sending you to a school called the world. It is a temporary place. You have to go there for a little while in order to learn about My history, your own history, and the history of many others. You have to know who created everything, who is responsible for everything, who is the Guardian in charge of you, and what is your true property. Once you have learned and understood all these histories, you will realize who you are and who is the One you need, the true One, the One who will live forever. “After you have studied about these things and many others, you must pass an examination. Then you can bring what belongs to you and come back here. If you do this, you will receive a kingdom that you can rule forever. But first, go to school and learn. Then come back.” God told you this and then sent you here. Now it is your job to discover Him, to know yourself, and to find out what is your true wealth. That is why you have come here. So make your wisdom into a pair of scissors and edit your reels properly, cutting out what is wrong. He has given you everything, but you must cut away all the pictures you have been taking with your own camera and keep only the good reels, those that pertain to your Guardian. Splice them together and cut away everything else. Then His kingdom will be yours.
