    Mystical path of Islam a sufi view of reality

    He then goes on to say, that it's not about the "unity of being" and he brushes it aside saying that person [who believed that] engaged in a different kind of "tassawuf". Of course, this is as absurd as me going to a non-Muslim and saying, "all of Islam is simply belief in God". Not only is this...

    Tich Nhat Hanh and Thomas Merton

    "He has come among us as many others have, from time to time, bearing witness to the spirit of Zen. More than any other he has shown us that Zen is not an esoteric and world denying cult of illumination, but that it has its rare and unique sense of responsibility in the modern world. Wherever he...

    In Other Religions?

    There's a group of people (perhaps the majority of Reddit) that are actively opposed to the idea of religion — anti-theists. Reddit is more or less a battleground for their crusade. I feel like us theists are trying to defend ourselves while also having an intellectually stimulating debate that...

    Excellent articles about gratitude!

    I've been writing in a journal daily for over two months and over this period I have partaken in gratitude journaling which I have found has had a positive impact on my mental health. As I'm a, soon-to-be, student journalist, I have decided to write an article on the benefits of journaling and...

    found this video useful to share.

    The truth is nowhere. Reddit is extremely strict about sharing original content to the point where I can't understand what this website is even for. We need a new place people can discover Showbox jiofi.local.html tplinklogin eachothers content

    Asking the difficult questions in religious practices

    In catholic school they taught that if you don’t accept Jesus you can’t go to heaven. So I asked what happens to people that don’t know about Jesus, have never been told about him so they don’t even have a chance. Nobody could give me a real answer so I started to question other things and here...

    Poetry the Language of Birds

    I love that everything is 'we' even upon escape. The escape reminds me so much if the escape in The OA. When she runs and reaches that casm. That after she is hit she wakes with sight. True sight. As in the story she learns from the King and gains true freedom. The sparkling expanse she/he/they...

    The Musawi, Isawi, Mohammadi saints concepts of Ibn Arabi.

    With respect, it is considered inappropriate by prominent scholars for laymen to read the works of Ibn Arabi (otherwise it can confuse confusion as in your case). It is more of a priority for you to read the Quran with translation and learn the obligatory knowledge in aqeedah and fiqh...

    Tests of Faith

    One atheist argument against theism is that faith results from the existential terror of death. We simply cannot conceive of our own non-existence so we create a fantasy of magical sky-dad who keeps us alive forever and ever. To disprove this I must find a way to be at peace with a godless...

    The code of the Saint Philomena Samurai!

    For a long time I have struggled with porn addiction and gender identity. It was only this weekend when I accidentally came across her Wikipedia page and read about her. I couldn't seem to get her story out of my mind. I then on at about 2am on a Sunday evening watched a video about her life and...

    Basic Principles of Sufi Path

    Second, make sure you also get someone who is knowledgeable to help explain things or you might find yourself coming to wrong conclusions. Don't forget that sufi books and manuals are also mystic documents in and of themselves and are also very refrential and precise in language - so be of those...

    Understanding Sufi tariqa

    I became a disciple of Shaykh Dr. Muhammad bin Yahya Ninowy, who has authorizations in several tariqas but is Shadhili in method, about 3 and a half years ago. It’s been amazing having the pledge to our beloved prophet (peace be upon him and his beautiful family) through a living breathing...

    Satan, the True Self?

    In the original story of the fall of Satan, there was a war. Satan and his following (1/3 of the angel populace) were banished to hell following their defeat, and everything was okay again. But doesn't anything there seem strange to you? Satan, the most evil being ever to have existed, managed...

    The greatest invention of human kind. What say you?

    I came here to say something similar with the Steam Engine, but I think the generator might capture my feelings better. The whole idea of constant accessible energy really changed the world. Farming is pretty high up there, but that is just humans finding a reliable source of energy to power...

    Spiritual Warfare?

    Another ex seeker of darkness here! His hold in the world is no joke. I went to him after I started my Christian walk and got heavily involved with demonic posession and oppression. People who say that Christians can't be posessed once saved are clueless! If you want it, God will deliver it into...

    Nature and Transformation

    It's easier for your delts to look bigger or "capped" when your clavical shapes down toward the center of your chest. This forces your shoulders to sit higher than your pecs causing them to look capped. His delts were pretty much snaptube vidmate capped in the first picture.

    How do you define Questioning

    A loaded question is one that, when answered, may bring up topics/histories/etc that the askee wouldn't want to get into. It could also be a question that has an answer that, once out in the open, would potentially have 192.168.100.1 192.168.1.1 bad consequences.
