Many people wonder at the phrase. The phrase can have two meanings: "[to] bless [one's] sins" or "blessings". Here's the history behind it: In grade nine I read a poem,
Innocence?
In a sense.
In no sense!
Was that it?
Was that it?
Was that it?
That was it.
( Howard Nemerov - A Life ) [1]
After reading this I wanted to create my own creative phrase (if you want to call it that), et voila!
Since then I have realized its special significance. It has two meanings.
1. "Bless" is a verb. To "bless" the "sins", seems really contradictory. Yet those who "bless" us, (i.e. priests, mursheeds, etc.) themselves are the biggest committers of "sins". I believe in the individual pursuit of faith, as well as the personal responsibility each on of us bears him/herself (no one can " save" you, save yourself).
2. The greatest blessing in the world is to have your sins blessed (i.e. forgiven), so as to prepare for your afterlife. Thus blessings are a good thing.
