The objects one should have in taking initiation under the Murshid are: - to realize the self within and without;
- to know and communicate with God, whom alone the world worships;
- to kindle the fire of divine love, which alone has any value;
- to be able to read nature's manuscript and to be able to see into the world unseen;
- to learn how to control oneself;
- to light the torch of the soul and to kindle the fire of the heart; and
- to journey through this positive existence and arrive in this life at the goal at which every soul is bound in the end to arrive.
