Taubah means “to turn”. And so it means that you have to be pushed away and turn back to your Source and then you will be pushed away again.

You may think “Why doesn’t Allah makes us so that we always do good and we never make mistake?”

To such the extent Allah says “If you did not sin and offend and get turned away then I would find another people that they would sin and ask forgiveness and I would forgive them”

So we realize that the meaning of our life is to be forgiven and to return and then to be pushed again and to return again. And so this rhythm is what tells us would have highs and lows and so the truth of The Divine will see in everywhere we look. In the thing which are highs and which are lows. And everything in creation is celebrating the tasbih to Allah. And so that means every little bug, every litlle blade of grass, they don’t have to be big and fancy. But they are celebrating Allah. And so when we join that then all of these little thing we see the truth in.
