Spirituality in Sufism :Tasavur e sheikh

"Tasavur e sheikh" ( vision/picture/thought/ feeling of teacher ) Murshid/ teacher/ sheikh teaches the Mureed a form of telepathic communication which has been used since centuries for communication between teacher and disciple. The procedure is very simple but takes time to master and it pays dividends once mastered. The Mureed is told to memorise a picture or form of teacher, most notably the face. It's preferable to memorise a picture in which the murshid is in his spiritual ecstasy form wearing the full attire (pahgri/ dastaar etc) of his silsila. The face is important because of colour of skin, face expressions and most importantly the eyes. In later stages the Mureed sees the expression changing, colours of face changing, smile, serious or loving expression etc. INITIAL STAGE The initial stage of memorising the picture of teacher is very difficult. Different people go through different patterns of stages. For the most devout Mureed's, it's very easy as...

Spirituality in Sufism : A Spiritual Teacher

A brief overview and a Few words on spiritual teacher or murshid or peer or sheikh ....I am going to talk about true or real ones, not drama or fake ones. And I'm not talking about Gaddi nasheen, they are different even if they are referred or called Peer's. Explaining about a spiritual teacher is a massive topic on its own. A spiritual teacher is not a common man like you or me. He is trained, blessed with spirituality and possesses different senses or powers that a common person does not have. Who trains a spiritual teacher ? His teacher and the pious spirits of the spiritual silsila that he belongs too. Long description but God approves also since after becoming a teacher, the teacher has to be in constant contact with God for the benefit of his Mureed's or disciples or students. Why is he blessed with powers ? Because he has a responsibility to carry out for the rest of his life so he is given all the tools of the trade. How is he given powers ? Most of th...

5G TECHNOLOGY OF MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS

TITLE: 5G TECHNOLOGY OF MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS ABSTRACT 5G is set to be a trend-changing technology due to the benefits it carries such a smart health care (5G-smart diabetes, remote surgery), automotive (self-driving cars) and Business (virtual reality) to name a few examples. The currently used cellular technologies, 3G and 4G LTE networks, have limitations in latency, data rates, signal throughput, frequency spectrum and capacity. Although 5G network is expected to overcome these limitations, but they still pose a considerable challenge. This proposal, proposes methodology for overcoming the loss of signal and coverage phenomenon, as well as, focuses on beam forming techniques in massive MIMO and the implementation of a heterogeneous network to get high data rates. LITERATURE REVIEW The interest in millimetre wave frequency band (30-300 GHz) for cellular technology such as 5G networks started a few years back [1]. Conventional microwave communication signals which operat...

Water Crisis in Pakistan

Water Crisis in Pakistan: A Necessity of Life Demanding a Solution In recent years, lots of concerns related to the water crisis have surfaced in national newspapers. Innumerable debates have occurred on the construction of dams, not just for electricity but also to counter the water crisis. The term "water war" has also surfaced and speculations are intensifying. Some reports even say that Pakistan will run out of water by 2025.  Construction of dams yield lots of advantages; water storage and power(electricity) production for sure but can also help and succour in flood control, irrigation and even generates jobs for decades to come. The saga of Kalabagh Dam is well known, however a number of small dams have been built in the past decade in Pakistan, which include Darawat Dam , Dandy Dam , Gomal Zam Dam, Satpara Dam etc.These dams are a good source of water for irrigation of land and also act as reservoirs to store water. A few Hydro- power plants have been built in rec...

Pakistan's Electricity Crisis or is it Management Crisis ?

Pakistan's Electricity Crisis or is it Management Crisis ? Pakistan has been mired by electricity shortage since decades now, the short fall increasing every year. The load-shedding phenomenon, taking households and business off the grid amounting to multiple hours everyday, has not only brought disastrous results to the economy of Pakistan but has also hammered the citizens badly in their daily routine and way of life. The citizens already combating with the stresses of water-shortage, are left stranded looking for other avenues for power generation in their homes. Few who can afford, use Generators running on petrol, diesel and gas to counter the energy crisis. Mostly use UPS (Uninterrupted Power supply) systems to at least keep the lights shining and fans sending waves of air in their homes. The majority who cannot afford either, spend their day on the mercy of the power companies. The Solar-power revolution has been a costly enterprise with mixed results. The wind-turbine...
