The offical random thoughts about Spirituality and Religion thread

[thirdeye]

come on now... That's a little too harsh don't you think?

No, it isn't. What's the point of living? Give another energy source a chance do something worthwhile on earth.

 

[Slaimon Khan Shah]

Btw Muhammad (pbuh) isnt viewed as infalliable. He's viewed as a prophet who's human and makes mistakes. One of the greatest human beings to ever walk the earth, but human nonetheless. He didn't win all the battles he fought in either.

As a matter of fact in Surah 80 in the Quran it deals with the fact that Muhammad (pbuh) chose to deal with some powerful tribal leaders over a blind man that came to him to inquire about Islam. It's understandable, since powerful tribal leaders would help to spread Islam and gain influential allies, but the action isn't viewed favorably within the Quran.



@Slaimon Khan Shah would most likely be more knowledgable than me on this topic.

Breh I recommend checking out Jummah at least once.

May Allah bless you Akh @Flubsurfer
May Allah guide @Turk to the Truth
May Allah guide thecoli Members who are not Muslim to Islam
@Turk I recommend you visit www.Islaam.ca and www.TheNobleQuran.com
@Flubsurfer I recommend www.AbuKhadeejah.com and www.AbdurRahman.org as beneficial websites for you Akh

Im agnostic but there gotta be a higher power out there somewhere

There is, it's within.

 

[Red Omega]

So you're going to let your past experiences lead you down a dark, bleek path? You might as well kill yourself then. Your purpose on earth is fulfilled.

The same reason a roach runs and fights to survive when it's trying to be killed or any kind of insect or animal for that matter. Survival is all we know, it's a basic instinct all living things have.

Shams 40 rules of love

Spoiler: 40 Rules

1. How we see God is a direct reflection of how we see ourselves. If God brings to mind mostly fear and blame, it means there is too much fear and blame welled inside us. If we see God as full of love and compassion, so are we.
2. The path to the Truth is a labour of the heart, not of the head. Make your heart your primary guide! Not your mind. Meet, challenge and ultimately prevail over your nafs (self, psyche, soul) with your heart. Knowing your ego will lead you to the knowledge of God.
3. You can study God through everything and everyone in the universe, because God is not confined in a mosque, synagogue or church. But if you are still in need of knowing where exactly His abode is, there is only one place to look for him: in the heart of a true lover.
4. Intellect and love are made of different materials. Intellect ties people in knots and risks nothing, but love dissolves all tangles and risks everything. Intellect is always cautious and advises, ‘Beware too much ecstasy’, whereas love says, ‘Oh, never mind! Take the plunge!’ Intellect does not easily break down, whereas love can effortlessly reduce itself to rubble. But treasures are hidden among ruins. A broken heart hides treasures.
5. Most of problems of the world stem from linguistic mistakes and simple misunderstanding. Don’t ever take words at face value. When you step into the zone of love, language, as we know it becomes obsolete. That which cannot be put into words can only be grasped through silence.
6. Loneliness and solitude are two different things. When you are lonely, it is easy to delude yourself into believing that you are on the right path. Solitude is better for us, as it means being alone without feeling lonely. But eventually it is the best to find a person who will be your mirror. Remember only in another person’s heart can you truly see yourself and the presence of God within you.
7. Whatever happens in your life, no matter how troubling things might seem, do not enter the neighbourhood of despair. Even when all doors remain closed, God will open up a new path only for you. Be thankful! It is easy to be thankful when all is well. A Sufi is thankful not only for what he has been given but also for all that he has been denied.
8. Patience does not mean to passively endure. It means to look at the end of a process. What does patience mean? It means to look at the thorn and see the rose, to look at the night and see the dawn. Impatience means to be shortsighted as to not be able to see the outcome. The lovers of God never run out of patience, for they know that time is needed for the crescent moon to become full.
9. East, west, south, or north makes little difference. No matter what your destination, just be sure to make every journey a journey within. If you travel within, you’ll travel the whole wide world and beyond.
10. The midwife knows that when there is no pain, the way for the baby cannot be opened and the mother cannot give birth. Likewise, for a new self to be born, hardship is necessary. Just as clay needs to go through intense heat to become strong, Love can only be perfected in pain.
11. The quest for love changes us. There is no seeker among those who search for love who has not matured on the way. The moment you start looking for love, you start to change within and without.
12. There are more fake gurus and false teachers in this world than the number of stars in the visible universe. Don’t confuse power-driven, self-centered people with true mentors. A genuine spiritual master will not direct your attention to himself or herself and will not expect absolute obedience or utter admiration from you, but instead will help you to appreciate and admire your inner self. True mentors are as transparent as glass. They let the light of God pass through them.
13. Try not to resist the changes, which come your way. Instead let life live through you. And do not worry that your life is turning upside down. How do you know that the side you are used to is better than the one to come?
14. God is busy with the completion of your work, both outwardly and inwardly. He is fully occupied with you. Every human being is a work in progress that is slowly but inexorably moving toward perfection. We are each an unfinished work of art both waiting and striving to be completed. God deals with each of us separately because humanity is fine art of skilled penmanship where every single dot is equally important for the entire picture.
15. It’s easy to love a perfect God, unblemished and infallible that He is. What is far more difficult is to love fellow human beings with all their imperfections and defects. Remember, one can only know what one is capable of loving. There is no wisdom without love. Unless we learn to love God’s creation, we can neither truly love nor truly know God.
16. Real filth is the one inside. The rest simply washes off. There is only one type of dirt that cannot be cleansed with pure waters, and that is the stain of hatred and bigotry contaminating the soul. You can purify your body through abstinence and fasting, but only love will purify your heart.
17. The whole universe is contained within a single human being-you. Everything that you see around, including the things that you might not be fond of and even the people you despise or abhor, is present within you in varying degrees. Therefore, do not look for Sheitan outside yourself either. The devil is not an extraordinary force that attacks from without. It is an ordinary voice within. If you set to know yourself fully, facing with honesty and hardness.
18. If you want to change the ways others treat you, you should first change the way you treat yourself. Unless you learn to love yourself, fully and sincerely, there is no way you can be loved. Once you achieve that stage, however, be thankful for every thorn that others might throw at you. It is a sign that you will soon be showered in roses.
19. Fret not where the road will take you. Instead concentrate on the first step. That is the hardest part and that is what you are responsible for. Once you take that step let everything do what it naturally does and the rest will follow. Don’t go with the flow. Be the flow.
20. We were all created in His image, and yet we were each created different and unique. No two people are alike. No hearts beat to the same rhythm. If God had wanted everyone to be the same, He would have made it so. Therefore, disrespecting differences and imposing your thoughts on others is an amount to disrespecting God’s holy scheme.
21. When a true lover of God goes into a tavern, the tavern becomes his chamber of prayer, but when a wine bibber goes into the same chamber, it becomes his tavern. In everything we do, it is our hearts that make the difference, not our outer appearance. Sufis do not judge other people on how they look or who they are. When a Sufi stares at someone, he keeps both eyes closed instead opens a third eye – the eye that sees the inner realm.
22. Life is a temporary loan and this world is nothing but a sketchy imitation of Reality. Only children would mistake a toy for the real thing. And yet human beings either become infatuated with the toy or disrespectfully break it and throw it aside. In this life stay away from all kinds of extremities, for they will destroy your inner balance. Sufis do not go to extremes. A Sufi always remains mild and moderate.
23. The human being has a unique place among God’s creation. “I breathed into him of My Spirit,” God says. Each and every one of us without exception is designed to be God’s delegate on earth. Ask yourself, just how often do you behave like a delegate, if you ever do so? Remember, it falls upon each of us to discover the divine spirit inside and live by it.
24. Hell is in the here and now. So is heaven. Quit worrying about hell or dreaming about heaven, as they are both present inside this very moment. Every time we fall in love, we ascend to heaven. Every time we hate, envy or fight someone we tumble straight into the fires of hell.
25. Each and every reader comprehends the Holy Qur’an on a different level of tandem with the depth of his understanding. There are four levels of insight. The first level is the outer meaning and it is the one that the majority of the people are content with. Next is the Batin – the inner level. Third, there is the inner of the inner. And the fourth level is so deep it cannot be put into words and is therefore bound to remain indescribable.
26. The universe is one being. Everything and everyone is interconnected through an invisible web of stories. Whether we are aware of it or not, we are all in a silent conversation. Do no harm. Practice compassion. And do not gossip behind anyone’s back – not even a seemingly innocent remark! The words that come out of our mouths do not vanish but are perpetually stored in infinite space and they will come back to us in due time. One man’s pain will hurt us all. One man’s joy will make everyone smile.
27. Whatever you speak, good or evil, will somehow come back to you. Therefore, if there is someone who harbours ill thoughts about you, saying similarly bad things about him will only make matters worse. You will be locked in a vicious circle of malevolent energy. Instead for forty days and nights say and think nice things about that person. Everything will be different at the end of 40 days, because you will be different inside.
28. The past is an interpretation. The future is on illusion. The world does not move through time as if it were a straight line, proceeding from the past to the future. Instead time moves through and within us, in endless spirals. Eternity does not mean infinite time, but simply timelessness. If you want to experience eternal illumination, put the past and the future out of your mind and remain within the present moment.
29. Destiny doesn’t mean that your life has been strictly predetermined. Therefore, to live everything to the fate and to not actively contribute to the music of the universe is a sign of sheer ignorance. The music of the universe is all pervading and it is composed on 40 different levels. Your destiny is the level where you play your tune. You might not change your instrument but how well to play is entirely in your hands.
30. The true Sufi is such that even when he is unjustly accused, attacked and condemned from all sides, he patiently endures, uttering not a single bad word about any of his critics. A Sufi never apportions blame. How can there be opponents or rivals or even “others” when there is no “self” in the first place? How can there be anyone to blame when there is only One?
31. If you want to strengthen your faith, you will need to soften inside. For your faith to be rock solid, your heart needs to be as soft as a feather. Through an illness, accident, loss or fright, one way or another, we are all faced with incidents that teach us how to become less selfish and judgmental and more compassionate and generous. Yet some of us learn the lesson and manage to become milder, while some others end up becoming even harsher than before…
32. Nothing should stand between you and God. No imams, priests, rabbis or any other custodians of moral or religious leadership. Not spiritual masters and not even your faith. Believe in your values and your rules, but never lord them over others. If you keep breaking other people’s hearts, whatever religious duty you perform is no good. Stay away from all sorts of idolatry, for they will blur your vision. Let God and only God be your guide. Learn the Truth, my friend, but be careful not to make a fetish out of your truths.
33. While everyone in this world strives to get somewhere and become someone, only to leave it all behind after death, you aim for the supreme stage of nothingness. Live this life as light and empty as the number zero. We are no different from a pot. It is not the decorations outside but the emptiness inside that holds us straight. Just like that, it is not what we aspire to achieve but the consciousness of nothingness that keeps us going.
34. Submission does not mean being weak or passive. It leads to neither fatalism nor capitulation. Just the opposite. True power resides in submission to a power that comes within. Those who submit to the divine essence of life will live in unperturbed tranquility and peace even the whole wide world goes through turbulence after turbulence.
35. In this world, it is not similarities or regularities that take us a step forward, but blunt opposites. And all the opposites in the universe are present within each and every one of us. Therefore the believer needs to meet the unbeliever residing within. And the nonbeliever should get to know the silent faithful in him. Until the day one reaches the stage of Insan-I Kamil, the perfect human being, faith is a gradual process and one that necessitates its seeming opposite: disbelief.
36. This world is erected upon the principle of reciprocity. Neither a drop of kindness nor a speck of evil will remain unreciprocated. For not the plots, deceptions, or tricks of other people. If somebody is setting a trap, remember, so is God. He is the biggest plotter. Not even a leaf stirs outside God’s knowledge. Simply and fully believe in that. Whatever God does, He does it beautifully.
37. God is a meticulous clock maker. So precise is His order that everything on earth happens in its own time. Neither a minute late nor a minute early. And for everyone without exception, the clock works accurately. For each there is a time to love and a time to die.
38. It is never too late to ask yourself, “Am I ready to change the life I am living? Am I ready to change within?” Even if a single day in your life is the same as the day before, it surely is a pity. At every moment and with each new breath, one should be renewed and renewed again. There is only one-way to be born into a new life: to die before death.
39. While the part change, the whole always remains the same. For every thief who departs this world, a new one is born. And every decent person who passes away is replaced by a new one. In this way not only does nothing remain the same but also nothing ever really changes. For every Sufi who dies, another is born somewhere.
40. A life without love is of no account. Don’t ask yourself what kind of love you should seek, spiritual or material, divine or mundane, Eastern or Western. Divisions only lead to more divisions. Love has no labels, no definitions. It is what it is, pure and simple. Love is the water of life. And a lover is a soul of fire! The universe turns differently when fire loves water.

You need to become grounded. Root chakra. Check it out.

So you're a roach? Something that people kill on sight? Gotcha.

There's no point, lol. There's no hope or faith in that one.

I wonder what gives you the idea that you are any more important than a roach is? Because you were given a mind that possesses an IQ to do so I guess. We have hit the genetic jackpot, we're humans - the most sophisticated species there is yet also the most ignorant.

I'm not coming at you from an atheist snob pov, I'm very open and willing to learn from whomever, but your replies thus far have been filled with great defense and little substance. I just try to view things from a very logical pov.

If your so enlightened third eye you shouldn't be taking my opposition as personal as it seems you are.

Told @PeridotPuss awhile back i was going to come back to this thread & that other one you made when i get some free time from the booth.

been looking for this thread for the longest. (I should've bookmarked this) Have a couple of "black pearls" to drop in here as it pertain to certain things. (the Kabbalah TOL is incomplete , Osiris & Nsw.t Bjt.j. However to keep this thread afloat in comparison with all the ass-eating thread and other dumb shyt. Thought i touch on Yemoja & it being categorize as "Mother Of Fishes".

In an effort to prevent the phenomenon that is term "folk-etymology" in what is defined as linguistic analysis, you would do what is termed a cross language comparison of those linguistic terms to get to the crux of their meanings that may be forgotten in one language or that of another. Now, when it comes tonames of deities, often a culture will not remember the original meaning of said name, or they will disregard it because it never was what would be considered as being originated in their language. In laymans terms, its borrowing.


Given the results of not knowing the very true meaning of a word, a speech community will often proceed to analyze the name from within a language by proceeding to analyze the name from within a language by proceeding to try and break the word down utilizing words from their own language that they perceive to make sense to them. Some within that of the Black community have a tendency to do this alot, for example with the word "history" by turning it into "his-story". This is a prime example of what would be consider folk-etymology (etymology done by the common folk with no knowledge of what is called historical comparative linguistic techniques for ascertaining the true meaning of terms.)

Folk-etymology has been done inside that of the Yoruba tradition with name for a prevalent goddess Yemoja. Folk-etymology reasons that the name Yemoja when defined means "mother of fishes". This is an error for various amount of reasons. For one, the term eje in the Yoruba language is "fish". They however did get the term for "mother" right, which ye. Ofiya is variant of "mother", it can be pronounced as iye. It is technically a term for "life" and has cognates with Yoruba Eyo, "the dead come back to life", "bush animal" -oya , "salvation, survival, life" - iye (< ye "to live through, to survive" ), "life, world", -aye, "wife" -aya; "living being" - hebrew hay.

The fundamental motivation behind why Yemoja is rendered on occasion as "mother of fishes" is on account of it is connected with "water", there is a word eje in the Yoruba dialect which signify "fish". Given a "fish" lives in "water", the general population of Yoruba have made a calculated association with the word. In any case, they neglect to accommodate the - m-phoneme in YeMoja. In any case it can't speak to "of" the relational word since this is rendered in Yoruba as niti or ti "of". You additionally need to accommodate the - o-after - m-as the term eje does not have the - o-sound. We now realize that the m is not the constant molecule m/n since they are border to verbs and "fish" is not a verb. It ought to be noted "mo" can't be the pronoun mo "I" since it wouldn't bode well in the sentence: Ye-"mother" + mo "I" + eje "fish" = Mother I Fish (a three thing sentence). It makes it harder to accommodate when one notes that Yemoja can likewise be rendered as Yemaja (Yemaya in the Diaspora)

It argued here that Yemoja is simply a name meaning "Mother (of) waters" or "The (living) spirit of waters or simply "Living waters". The Niger-Congo word moja is a term for "water" and also has a cognate with the Kiswahili-Bantu language as moji "waters". There is also a cognate may'im in Hebrew (where 'im is plural marker within Semitic). A-man-n in Berber "water"; Ma-n "sea" Cushytic (Somali) ; Ngala banai Poto mai "water" Mwy Egyptian "watery, moist", "water, semen, fluid, oedema, "rain". the sound /i/ and /y/ are interchangable (/j/ also), and are in fact variants of each other. The term for "water" within Yoruba is omi and moja. -Ja- in Yemoja is the root and comes from Proto-Western-Sudanic *gi *gia "water"; Kpelle ya "water"; Mano yi "water". [Readers Note: g>y>j>i]. The -m- morpheme i an old Niger-Congo noun class utilize to denote mass liquids.

My view is that the goddess Yemoja/Yemaja/Yemaya comes further south of Nigeria in Gabon among the Mitsogho speakers. In the book "The Pygmies Were Our Compass (2003; pgs 135-136) author Dr Karin Kleiman discusses this goddess within a Mitsogho context. Among the Mitsogho, wind and water are seen as forces of creation and fecundity. The importance is with the latter is related with that of Ya Mwei is also the focus of one ofthe most important men's societies in Gabon. This goddess is perceive to have an influence over the maintenance of social order. The society makes it mandatory that those young initates (7-8 yrs old) undergo a series of proofs consider challenging at a initiation camp with the forest. It is there that they proceed to obtain her knowledge. Ya Mwei is also associated with particular waterfalls or cascades. Those adepts frequent these locations to decipher the messages that she sends. Ya Mwei is the cardinal symbol of fertility and is often assimilated with Earth as well.

Yemoja isn't "The Mother of Fishes", be that as it may it is essentially "living waters", the birthing power found inside of water. Water is life and life is symbolized by "wind" and"water". Likewise noted, Ya Mwei is connected with "earth" and I reason that the earth is additionally viewed as a "womb" and all life originates from the "womb" profound inside of the earth. Before showing up ashore it must "emerge" from the "sea" simply like individuals burst from our moms womb. Yemoja/Ya mwei is essentially the life rule itself spoke to by water. Since the Yoruba did not have - moja local to its dialect, they reanalyzed and birthed a myth and imagery encompassing her roots in their elucidation of the name from inside of the Yoruba dialect.

This is the reason we cross look at African dialects and societies in light of the fact that related dialects and societies give urgent bits of thee riddle that have been misintrepret as a consequence of normal dialect change, semantic slippage + relocation

[IronFist]

I be coming up with my own shyt just prayin and listening and thinking

1.God designed us so thoroughly each human connects to and releases an energy down to the body fluids

Tears = pain and release
Sweat = work and accomplishment
Blood = life and death
Urine = waste
Female lubrication = anticipation and pleasure
Semen = pleasure urgency and folly
Snot = health
Saliva = affection

2. I believe as eternal beings we had experiences prior to life on earth that did not take place on earth (prob in other forms outside of human)

3. I believe dreams are humanity creating realities to be experienced later in eternity

4. I believe Jesus is the son of God

5. I believe nothing is chance or accidental

interesting

 

[IronFist]

Need to come back and breakdown the different levels to this. Most if not all have a convoluted westernized views on what is and what isn't. (shyt, Maybe on a slow day in the booth section)

*reserved for lengthy post pertaining to the kabbalah*

 

[Givethanks]

How does one gain faith, i literally have non at all when i really sit and think about it. It's really unhealthy, and it's something i want to change.
