SEYR-I SULUK IN HACI BAYRAM VELI’S POEMS IN THE CONTEXT OF STONE-SOIL METAPHORS

Abstract

Author(s): Musa KAVAL

Hac? Bayram Veli, an important contributor to the adoption of Islam and Sufism culture in Anatolia, also identified soil as a raw material of human by cultivating it.Hac? Bayram Veli who knew his ego through mystical education after scholarship advised his fellowers to recognize themselves first. Because all human who were created to worshipfor Allah must first become aware of the self. Hac? Bayram Veli has not only questioned this question that all people have been questioning in some way, but also he stated how to read correctly. Man should first diagnose his condition by making inferences from his own actions. Because human beings are created in a way that has opposite characteristics, it is not easy to achieve harmony and stability. Haci Bayram Veli speaks about “to be made between stone and earth” because humankind live between good and evil and ugly in suspicion. Using of this expression of human life struggle by a Sufi who engages in the earth, is a prove being a good observer as well as shows that he has resigned from the world’s mark by reading it well. Human always has to chant Allah ans asks His help for himself in order to find real personality which started with questioning and continued with comdemnation. For those who have forgotten Allah are unable to attain accurate knowledge of self-righteousness because they have ignored the principle of ontological creation. The man whom God created from his own breath, and mad ehim as a collected narrow in the world, is to cherish Him in every beat to ego stone in order to chisel it out in order to find herself. So the chiseled stone with new function and the land formed by the pieces of stone are understood that they are different faces of wahdet secret. As a result of this struggle described by Hac? Bayram Veli human sees that he points that the unity he grasps over his dualistic nafs (stone-soil).
