My Thoughts

To detach from malevolence is wisdom; And God's grace is we don't detach from things benign, since we don't need to for they give us strength; so we have a natural tendency to [even gradually] detach from malevolent situations & malevolence; and to equally run towards, attach and re-attach with the benign.

Happiness is a state of being connected. A moment perhaps when you played as a child; fully in-tuned with the game, carefree; A moment where you connected emotionally with what you were doing; enjoying the game; the PEAK of joy; you were there, nowhere else; your mind present & your heart beating as if never wanting the game, that moment to end: is connecting ; And whenever we connect; even now; To whatever we connect; the feeling of happiness is revived. If the work you do gives that connection Or people around you, give it; Then you are ideally placed For you remain needy no more Hence you are protected from harm; vulnerable no more. If you can connect with small things; such as Hobbies like writing; pets, painting, Or reading even single page; that connects being well written; Each connection will revive the feeling But connect with things that stay; Benign and good things have “permanence”; Protected; because they provide benefit to all; Malevolent and vi...

The universe is divided into La and Hayy; La is subject to change whereas Hayy is eternal. Everything that exists even now has a Reality to it; thus it still has an element of Hayy. if you see the Hayy in things, you see the Haqiqat in them; otherwise you are in darkness! if the Hayy goes, the Reality goes, and the thing is annihilated. and Hayy is the goodness in it [the benign in it] by affirming the Hayy, and negating the La; you increase your chances of survival, and the chances of survival of the race. A Note on Power By negating the La And affirming the Hayy You are made powerful, For you yield power.

And what are investments? They are emotional or other kind of memory, that DRAG us down. ~ Everybody has good to them and bad to them; but the bad is something that keeps them weak; so it is unsustainable and subject to change; for eventually suffering because of it; they change it, when they find a way! [thus it is metaphorically an illusion] ~ The good everybody possess is not subject to change; for being beneficial to others they protect it, by protecting you because of it and so it stays with you forever. [thus it is Real] ~ When we meet somebody, we may push buttons, that bring out the bad in them; or brings out goodness; so we connect with them. ~ But for us to be ABLE to connect with them through the good we first have to deal with the investments we've made, so we SEE clearly WHAT it is THEY posses; that IS benign & good in them, that which is REAL. ~ And so, I AM RICH because I have very little investments left; so I am begining to SEE...

Fallacy: To experience awe is an END in itself. Thus we should experience awe for awe's sake only. Thus a teacher said: all we may do is to live in awe; and just be; But to the implication: "nothing is significant"; I answer: Reality IS significant One of THE most prime messages of the prophets was that there is a permanence to our world; thus everything is NOT a subject to time & change; everything connected to the REAL will remain and by virtue of it's connection contributes to the Permanent. And what is the Permanent? The Permanent is [only] goodness which is benign for; everything good that you start will be taken over by Him; so it will be taken over by others who continue it because it is something that creates benefit. Whereas all that you do; that is malevolent is going to be pulverized by others in time for it creates harm; so somebody will work against it and they will succeed. And only the good that we do; well, "it is significant...

Butterfly : And I am the voice inside your head that speaks to you of goodness and commands you like the angels of God are commanded. Fly : Lo, I am the voice that speaks to you of a bickering and I confuse you so at times I put you to fight. Me : But the voices in my head can they be compartmentalized; a good apart from the bad? Yes they answered and the division is as sharp as between fresh water and spilled oil that is on top. Me : But beautiful butterfly you come so seldom; You have left me to be attended by the fly, so I am in it's company always. Why do you do so? Butterfly : if you keep yourself in muck then flies will come and it cannot be any other way! Me : and what is the muck, how would I know? Fly : the muck is a thing that engages your attention into a thousand parts; and it keeps it from staying WHOLE. So with your attention divided you are weak and I the voice of your ego gain in strength. I become the voice within that holds a dialog with you abou...

Intent is a tool you posses for worldly success; and salvation, - each person or thing feared fear cradles, it generates within malevolence! so take the intent, this malevolence, and crush it, grind; so you feel the crushing, the intent strain; till it ceases! a malevolence crushed, crushes fear another malevolence crushed, crushes greed some malevolence crushed, is vile crushed; is weakness, crushed! so the end of fear; and the crushing of an intent malevolent, so turn it into gold and aim for Benign intent; which intent IS power, so it gives of it so you may succeed by it, and enjoy benign beautiful salvation! Intent as tool: engage each fear I have by crushing a malevolence that maps to it and sits within. In transforming it benign the fear; the problem will go away! Another psychological tool to ACTUALLY do the above is: "La Hayy" Which means: "there are no idols that exist" and "only my Lord exits" Implied: Each fear is a daem...

You, yourself are not the means to an end, but yourself ARE the end sought; so He is Lateef, He has made you to explore, so you relish! so explore your OWN beauty; the pool of it hath limited only by time; the hour appointed so He will MATCH each effort, Nay He matches with more than you fathom, such is His Grace, and the beauty of what He created!

The battle of Karbala, within its intent lies its beauty. The khalif Yazid was a man, who was corrupt and thus not bound by the dictates of principles, instilling these corrupt values into his rule he desired whatever he willed onto whoever he willed. He was not free of desire, indeed blinded by it he did not know of the power of God's men, those whose actions mirror truth, whose hearts speak to them of beauty, love, fidelity and other good, taking those who heed it into God's Grace and into peace. For the heart rejects misery, depravity, greed, etc. guiding us helping us find a way out. Imam Hussain(AS) was a freeman, who was gifted with such enormous strength, he could carry out His will, at odds to an emperor; his entire army. He fought a battle of freedom, for men and women who, under the fist of a tyrannical & whimsical ruler, subjected to a king's oppression; who in his vanity and ignorance did not realize God's principles are alway...

To understand this article you may need to read-up on Modernity, Values and Qalb. Please read them in the order that follows below, thankyou. Read about Qalb here Read about Values here Read about Modernity here The relation of these three is given here A diseased Qalb is an internal problem whereas Modernity and Values are external problems; these afflict us from without. These make 3 points on a triangle. To gain stability one approach would be to tackle each point on the triangle; so that with each point conquered you experience less volatility. To show you how all three relate with one another I present this analogy: The Qalb is how you 'see' ahead of you. If you can't see you are BLIND. Modernity makes the ground on which you stand so shaky that you are always dis-balanced. These two combined create this problem: some body who is blind won't have much time or attention to give to fixing his 'blindness' since the very ground he is standing on i...

It is literature that affects the consciousness of a people in the most powerful way. Thus it was that the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) the messenger of God through the Quran introduced into the human race a consciousness that brought about as a milestone culmination - the Renaissance itself. In the recent past however a new post-renaissance literature has emerged that is dark and elitist. It is called ‘high literature’. The difference in character between the former and the latter types of literature is that while the former is popular among the masses the latter is accepted only by the few. High literature has affected the consciousness of the human race in a tremendous way making our world topsy turvey. Thus it is that in our world we now need to make sense of the esoteric before we can make sense of the exoteric. However it is interesting that there are groups of people who owing to poverty are isolated from this global mind set and such is the case with a number of villages in t...
