Gathered Memory | the spiritual wisdom of Hafez
2008-06-09 16:36:00
So long as on Earth you live,do value your strength;the wheel of life buriesall weakness in the end.In the school of transformation, in the tavern of alchemy, each seeker has its own course, unique pathway. Still, there are one curriculum common to all of humanity, past and present ... is what mystic philosopher and sufi master Hafez calls, Khater-e-Majmou, the Gathered Memory .The gathered memory is a condition of unity created by weaving disparate thoughts, emotions and personalities into one sharply focused images. It emerges both from within and without, arising in each person as the world of both one's self and one's double - that ancient metaphysical shadow being that is said to be an image of the self as it appears in the spirit world.You sometimes may experience gathered memory as completely relaxed composure. It is a peaceful state obtained through a momentary, yet complete flash of aggregate memory. You know who you are, where you've come from and who and what you are re...

Reincarnation | Islamic Perspective | part.2
2008-06-08 01:09:00
1. Beyond our historical mindOne of the challenges of human mind is that its often caught in historical mind. That also explains, whenever an enlightened person, a new prophet arrived, a new concept was put forward, masses are caught in their historical mind frame and fail to see the truth, fail to think outside the box and the ignorance sometime turn into arrogance. "Alas for My servants, there comes not a Messenger to them but they mock at him". - The Quran 36 :31When it comes to bridging the universal truth found in different religions in all of humanity, its again the historical mind that blocks us to even be ready to listen, let alone realize. For thousands of years, all religion has trained systematically to reject spiritual truths, just because its found or pre-exist in another faith tradition, ignoring the universality of the truth.When it comes to the idea of Reincarnation, if we are talking about spirit entering and re-entering the flesh, then the very concept is always th...

Reincarnation | Islamic Perspective | part.1
2008-06-07 11:25:00
1. Reincarnation | Where traditional Islam stands?In the orthodox / traditional / mainstream Islam at its later version doesn't talk about reincarnation. The idea of reincarnation is not discussed in Quran explicitly, the Prophet Muhammad, upon him be peace, never had to confront this idea since the very concept was absent mostly from the arab society and minds of his time. Offcourse the idea of hereafter was there, the idea of final resurrection is there, but the continuing cycle of life and death is simply not discussed openly.During the time of Quranic revelation, people of Jewish community came to the Prophet and asked about the mystery of soul. Prophet remained silent and waited for answer from God and it was revealed through the Angel Gabriel as inspiration:And they ask you concerning the soul. Say: "The soul is one of the things, of which the knowledge is only with my Lord. And of knowledge, you (mankind) have been given only a little." - The Quran, Al-Israa' 17:85alternate...

1.Reincarnation "Krishna taught it; Plato believed in it; the Buddha revised it; Augustine considered it; Emerson wrote about it; Freud rejected it; Tolstoy was passionate about it; Sagan was curious about it.All of these great minds were fascinated, entranced, or troubled by one powerful idea: reincarnation.

1.Mathura, North India 3127 B.C.The moon was in the constellation of Aldebaran and it was the 8th lunar day of the dark fortnight in 3127 B.C.The blessed virgin, Devaki, was about to deliver a baby boy; Krishna was to be his name. His birth had been heralded by the astral formation of a Rohini Nakshatra, a most auspicious astrological sequence.His father, Vasudeva was a carpenter. Unfortunately, a wise Brahmin had predicted to King Kansa, the ruler of Mathura, that a son born to Devaki would destroy him. Kansa ordered the death of all male babies on the day of Krishna's birth to prevent the prophecy from coming true. Luckily for Krishna, his father was pre-warned and fled with the child to Gokul where he could be brought up safely.Hinduism has long worshiped the Holy Trinity of Brahma - the Creator; Vishnu - the Preserver and Shiva - the Destroyer. Krishna, it was believed, was the second entity in this trinity. Much like the second entity in the trinity of the Father, Son and Holy...

Most Direct Guidance | meditative Quranic verses
2008-05-31 00:20:00
... wakafa bi Rabbika Hadiyan wa Naseeran.... and sufficient is your Lordas a Guideand a Helper.- the Quran 23:31The most direct guidance comes from God alone and this alone is sufficient. In Islamic wisdom tradition one of the revealed 99 attributes of God is al-Hadi which translate as "the Guide". The roots of Hadi is a voice, sound, sensation or direct message (HAD) that returns us to the source of life and take us further (I).The Bible relates that when Prophet Elijah (arabic Ilyas or Elias in Quran), when in trouble listened for the, "still, small voice", through which he heard the voice of the Holy One. Often our heart is in need, is in longing for such simple, direct sense of guidance.Sufi master Inayat Khan's prayer reflected beautifully the invocation for heart's opening to that direct guidance within.Open our hearts that we mayhear Thy voicewhich constantly cometh from within.- Prayer of Inayat Khan.The Divine is the All Hearing, As-Sami, the Ever Listening.

Interpretation of dreams in Islamic Wisdom Tradition
2008-05-26 05:27:00
1.On many occasions Prophet Muhammad, upon him be peace, after finishing the morning prayer in the mosque, he would face the companions and ask, "Who amongst you had a dream last night?" So if anyone had seen a dream he /she would narrate it. The Prophet would say: "Ma sha'a-llah" (God has willed it) and he would continue interpreting the dream.Thus dream interpretation, specially in group was practiced from the very time of the Prophet, which tradition is also carried and practiced in many sufi orders and has distinguished place in Islamic wisdom tradition.2.Prophet Muhammad is reported to have said, "Nothing is left of Prophethood except glad tidings." Those with him asked, "What are glad tidings?" He replied, "True dreams / visions."- Sahih Al-BukhariThe Prophet Muhammad mentioned that after he was gone prophecy would come only through true dreams. Based on this and other statements, early Muslims created what might be called a theology of dreams. Dreams were regarded as an impo...

The farmer and his seven children worked all year round, but money was short.One morning, while they were having breakfast, his wife said, "You look worried. What is the matter?"The farmer replied, "I had a dream last night, and I can't explain it. I dreamt that I had to go to Jerusalem - I don't know why - and had to wait at a certain place by Damascus Gate.""Wait for what?" asked his wife."That's it," said the farmer. "I have no idea what I was waiting for."He went off to work and by the end of the day forgotten all about his dream.

Esoteric Sphere of Seven Subtle Centers and Seven Internal Subtle Messenger

Messengers, Prophets are as much as part of the outer reality, representing historical figures, representing the pole of human spiritual evolution at different ages; at the same time, each Messenger represent certain esoteric stations within every human being.

A whispering soul within my soulawakens me in thecircling intimacy of the night,the way a gentle windmoves through the softness of evergreen.A thought swerves and scurries away,knowing it is not welcomein the true embrace of lovers.The ear is cushioned next to the heartto hear the rhythm and breathing of the other,aligning with a breath that winds its wayaround the moment like a silken song.As birds rest their wingsin the sheltering scent of pine,the spirit dissolvesinto the answering sighsof the saving warmth of love,cradled in a hidden nest,prepared from floating strandsof longing and desire.The Beloved waits for the open heart,the surrendered soul, and the purity of loveaware it has been createdto offer the gift of innocenceto the flames of truth.In sacred stillness, the sun seems to singas it creates a rising circle of fireto protect such a union.- Naomi

What is Reverence? | the holy perception to life
2008-05-21 17:21:00
Reverence is engaging in a form and depth of contact with Life that is well beyond the shell of form and into essence. Reverence is contact with the essence of each thing and person ... It is contact with the interior of its beingness.Even if you cannot sense the interior, it is enough to know that the form, the shell, is merely an outer layer, and that underneath it the true power and essence of who a person is, or what a thing is, is present. That is what honored in reverence.Reverence is an attitude of honoring life.Whether a person is reverent depends essentially upon whether he or she accepts the principle of the sacredness of Life, any way that he or she defines sacred. Reverence is also simply the experience of accepting that all Life is, in and of itself of value.Reverence is not respect. Respect is judgment. It is a response to the perception of qualities that we ourselves admire, or have been taught to admire. Qualities that are admired by the people of one culture may not...

Earthly Mother | The extra-ordinary teaching of Divine Feminine in Essene G
2008-05-20 11:45:00
1.One of the most striking highlight of Essene Gospel of Peace is Jesus Christ's teaching of Earthly Mother . Its not only startling for traditional Christians who inherited present day Christian doctrines that came through filtering out of almost all gnostic teachings, thus stripped off most of the mystical, esoteric teachings of Christ; but as its clear, even the people of his time was also puzzled when Christ was teaching using the term, "Earthly Mother" to the audience (i wonder what was the original aramaic / hebrew term for Earthly Mother).In the beginning of the Essene Gospel of Peace, book one, as Christ was among many sick and maimed, the opening passage records what proceeded from his blessed lips: "Happy are you that you hunger for the truth, for I will satisfy you with the bread of wisdom. Happy are you, that you knock, for I will open to you the door of life. Happy are you, that you would cast off the power of Satan, for I will lead you into the Kingdom of our Mother's...

The Essene Gospel of Peace
2008-05-18 21:28:00
"A dark age began,a time of savagery of barbarism,of book-burning, of superstitionand worship of empty idols.The gentle Jesus was lost foreverin the image of a crucified God.The Essene brothers hid their teachings in the minds of the few who could preserve them for their descendants, and the Scrolls of Healing lay neglected beneath the shifting shadows of the deserts." - the discovery of the Essene Gospel of Peace , by Edmond Bordeaux Szekely1.Earlier this month, while in Boulder, Colorado, I obtained a copy of The Essene Gospel of Peace (book one). Gnostic gospels have always attracted me, partly because the thirst of knowing Jesus and his mystic teachings were never quenched in the canonical gospels and they always felt incomplete. The Essene Gospel is particularly interesting because it strengthen and support the intuition and understanding (as well as scholarly, historical evidences) that Jesus was trained and raised as Nazarene Essene.The Essene Gospels of Peace is quite unlike...

Nisbath and Lineage of Spiritual Transmission
2008-05-17 02:15:00
1.The Quran indicates one should 'enter houses by their doors' (2:189). The door of the Quran is the Prophet Muhammad, upon him be peace, not only because he was the one through whom the Divine Revelation was transmitted to the rest of humanity, but also because he is the one whom God invested with the most knowledge concering the different levels of significance and meaning inherent in the Quran.The door to the Prophet is love. In fact, the Prophet, himself, has said that, 'no one can complete one's faith until the Prophet becomes dearer to an individual that the person's family and all of mankind.'The door to loving someone who loves the Prophet is 'nisbath'. Nisbath is the bond of spiritual resonance which inclines a seeker to learn from a given servant of God, while simultaenously inclining that servant of God to teach the seeker who manifests signs of such nisbath.The door to nisbath is adab or spiritual etiquetee.The door to adab is initiation into a silsilah or 'line...

Habib Allah | the mystery of beloved one of Allah

.. God loves them and they love God ..- The Quran 5:54 He who loves Me, knows Me,and He who knows Me, finds Me.- traditional sufi saying Only Allah is your Wali (friend /guide) ... - The Quran 5:55Osho rightly said, "In the whole history of human consciousness, more daring lovers than Sufis have never existed, because they are the only ones who have turned God into their Beloved ." In Islamic wisdom tradition, this relationship of lover and Beloved goes back and originates from Prophet Muhammad , the praised one who was and is addressed as Habib-Allah or beloved one of God.The word, 'Habib' or 'Habeeb' means the one who is loved, beloved one. Its the same in ancient hebrew and arabic language which can also be translated as "dearly loved".The Last Messenger Muhammad who is the seal of Prophethood after whom no other new Messenger will be sent to humanity, embodied the pinnacle of evolution of Prophethood, thus his rank as Habib-Allah also indicates the most saught after rank.
