The beauty of the repetition is that you are training the unconscious. You are instilling a thought-form, a seed thought, in the unconscious at the archetypal level. We could even say it frays pathways in your brain, so that the thought pops up into the conscious from the unconscious when called upon.VIK
As an example, imagine you have been invited to a party. You ask who is coming, and are told so-and-so and so-and-so; and then there is a name, and you think Oh no, if that person comes, I am not coming. But you remember having said the wazifa Rahman (compassion), and so you say Yes, OK. Somehow you have built something in your unconscious, and somehow it has registered there. It has a label. Rahman has a meaning for you that the word compassion does not have. It has gained a meaning by all that you have put into it. VIK

The problem is when I start to do zikr, initially am conscious of the meaning of the zikr but after sometime it's just my lips moving or my heart reciting but not really registering the meaning of each zikr. Help!
Dr Roza
That is quite ok because when you register the meaning in the beginning your subconscious is aware of the meaning.
Anyway , the zikr of the Asma is unique because the names themselves will manifest their qualities when you do the zikr. As my teacher said: Istiqamah , persist and you will see results.
