The period or 'day' after learning duties towards a leader and towards husband or wife is that which Monday and the children of Imam Ali (as) and Lady Fatima (as) offers us.
Together with the Holy Prophet of Islam (saw) they (with Imam Hasan and Imam Husain) formed the purified household which congregated under the Yemani blanket in Hadith e Kisa. However, this does not exclude Lady Zainab and Hazrat Abbas from the picture of the lessons that we are taught of a brother's display of loyalty to his elder brother (Imam Husain (as) ) and a sister's role in a family and in face of defending the rights of a family as we see on the plains of Karbala and the day of Ashura, the courts of Damascus and indeed the whole of the life of the beloved Hazrat Abbas and Zainab (Lady of Courage).
I did not want to get into details in this post although the stories pull any shia towards attachment when mentioning the lessons. With the days of dusk around the corner, perhaps we will leave deeper discussion until then (Allah giving us tawfiq Inshallah). But suffice it to say that there is no lesson from the ahlul bayt that we cannot learn and no lesson they will not teach us for infact they are alive and seeking provisions from their lord. We only have to connect with the use of Ziarat on this Monday for extra power connecting to the children of the Holy couple (Imam Ali and Lady Fatima) and the guidance is always there for us.
So very, VERY briefly and barely touching on the significance and values of this day and period of development I offer this very humble evalutation with hope that perhaps next Monday I will be able to expand. Either way, the 3rd level of development speaks about the fight against oppression and two ways (Imam Hassan and Imam Husain) that were used to acti in those sittuations.
3 is also the number of the 3rd chakra, the chakra that lies directly below the 4th chakra. This may be a hint telling us that power without love (4th chakra) leads to oppression and it is our job now to learn how to over come it with the use of the teachings of the Ahle bayt and especially Imam Hussain's help in order to get passed the level 3 on our way to recieiving our 12th Holy Imam. It is more of a message towards ourself in our own life perhaps. But consider this point. The number of Shahids of Karbala were 72. Numerologically speaking, 7+2 =9. Number 9 is considered the number of humanity. The days before Ashura were also 9 with the 10 being having a separate significance which requires pondering). What was given up more on Ashura than the Humanity of the oppressors and what was gained more by the 72 Shaheed of Karbala but their own humanity as well as the entire humanity of future generations.
Just a few points to ponder that perhaps bring us closer to fixing the pieces of this puzzle that is....reaching our Imam on his higher planes.
