My Murshid used to say " We( Adam) do not bear Iblees a grudge but he considers us alien to God" Sufis have always been targeted by the clergy. Tortured, killed. Not one Sufi have I heard of who ever victimized a Mullah.
Bless Ibn Arabi and thank you for this reading. I was raised by Islam since I was a small child. But I never could see nor follow this truth because either I was not ready or I had not encountered a human teacher to rouse my attention and wake me up from my slumber. So when I got older and thanks to the Internet of things, I turned to new age teachers such as Lords; Ramana, Nissargatta, Mooji, Echert Tolle, Rupert Spira and many more. The Light of God was beginning to shine through but the ego insisted for attention and relevance. Many years passed. Then I explored Lord Buddha and found that He also spoke the same truth. Subsequently, I returned to Lord Jesus and was surprised that he, and all the Jewish and Christian prophets - all pointed to the same truth. Then I went back to Islam to take a second look. There was God speaking through the instrument of the prophet. All I had to do was persistently practice being empty of a personal existence, to be still , to surrender myself as this ego. To let the perceptions explain themselves and not a "me" judging it, naming it. And in the moments when the fog of illusion would clear out from this consciousness, there was a peaceful and satisfying witnessing that only God is this Present Moment - all of it. God cannot be described because, he\she\it, is One without a second, so I cannot describe Myself. Everywhere I point, I am there. Everyone I refer to, I am he or she. "I sleep in the rocks, dream in the plants, stir in the animals and awakens in man" (Ibn Arabi). Bless all the messengers of truth from the past, those in the now and those in the future.
Ramana and mooji etc .... are not considered new age. They are Non-dualiity Teachers and Gurus. New Age is tarot cards and crystal magic and psychic cards and paranormal activity sciences and witchcraft etc...
Let's break this down. God, in his absolute form, is one, or unity. But you, as an individual, are that same God because you are an individuation of him. The primordial nature of being is awareness, and we all share that same awareness in unity consciousness. God lives in, as, and through all conscious or sentient beings throughout the galaxy. God is also every aspect of the material reality because we live in a mathematical reality where all is mind. I love all ancient texts that point to this truth. It's just that we can understand this much easier now that we are globally connected, and we can follow the thread of any ancient religious teachings that point to awakening or Self-awareness as the true essence of who and what we are.
1 The mathematical reality where all is mind, is a delusion based system , You see the WORD of god means sound, and our ability to over associate with the noise we can make , imagine Eons ago human language was not as complicated, as they lived in a non sound focused reality , they lived in the Electro magnetic reality as the dominant thing to consider in all things They had no urge to "bray like a Donkey" or as the Celts would say an "ASS" You see there is the other one, the other Slaver trick The focus on "books" reading and writing , which is teaching you to exist solely in that LEFT PFC , You see "Mary had a little lamb its fleece was white as snow and everywhere that Mary went her Lamb was sure to go" is actually message from the Druids, Oral tradition But some will say "all we know about the druids was WRITTEN IN BOOKS by the Romans who also happened to wipe them out So the books say " sacrifices, virgins, debauchery and violence, savages" "well that's like the pot calling the kettle black" as the Druids Echo eternally Mum to daughter
Right but what practical use are these teachings? We still have to fight off the mugger, pay the taxman, combat the mosquito tick hookworm and tapeworm.
That text is exactly what I have believed in for many years and it's a first time I found something that clearly and accurately reflected my beliefs and philosophy. I am absolutely shocked. Never thought I am gonna find something like that. 🙏

I lived in his country of birth for 3 years. A lion without gender appeared to me before the flood came 6 month after. I was gone with my only son. I listened. The flood came i Los Alcázares in 2016. Not for one, but for many times. We needed to clean this área of pride. Today, when I said loudly that I regret that I didnt know that he was here, while I saw my hand holding my heart, he spoke to me the first time. Its nothing new for me, as I am used to speak with our brothers and sisters, but I had a hard time, because I said that the only one I bow to is The One, and I red few days before this here, that he did the same. He is my brother. We are binded by our hearts. And YES, I am a woman. Because only your mother can tell you what to do. Only a slavic mother gave way to the heart. Now I see why. I appreciate this knowledge and will treasure it and my light will overcome the the rest of darkness, to keep our creation save and lead it in the light of the One. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. 💜💫🦋🔱
Quoting the Bahagavad Gita; “Just as a reservoir is of little use when the whole countryside is flooded, scriptures are of little use to the illumined one, who sees the Lord everywhere.” - Krishna - Another translation goes: "To the enlightened one, all wisdom books are as worth to him as a well in a flooded field". So this is it: TRUTH CANNOT BE ACQUIRED NOR CONVEYED, TRUTH CAN ONLY BE AKNOWLEDGED BY HE WHO REMEMBERS IT, FOR BOTH COME FROM THE SOURCE. And by reading these wonderful poems one just can give them its value of truthness as from a deep remembrance that comes from within our souls
@@lisaaustin1042 i can see why he would mention Ibn Arabi, since of all major sufi teachers Ibn Arabi's ideas are quite similar with some eastern philosophies.
That which is nothing in particular (actual), is by definition everything in general (potential). God = Creative Intelligence, the All in One in All. We are all It, to an unknowable/inexhaustible extent, as the facets of a Diamond are 'both' distinct from each other 'and' the Diamond itself. Love is the recognition of our shared Being. What appears as separate is in Reality, Continuum of Being. When the journey to the Absolute ends, the journey in, with, by, for and as the Absolute begins. Being aware of being aware is our innermost nature. Life is the passing away of passing away. Life goes on, forever. I am That I am = I am That which is. I = which Am = is
Can't thank you enough for reading this for us. The message is so deep that one needs time and many visits to the space he talks about. The Oneness. Once the idea of Oneness of God is realized, well. Would you mind reading his Bezels of wisdom book?
very interesting reading, its hard to understand and probably can be comprehended by the one who passes through so many levels and has abstract view of the universe
I often wonder if people realize he was saying there is no mythical guy in the sky, but that we are all god. God meaning a concept….Sufism is embracing the Oneness that is all life. I am my brother, I am that rock, I am that sky. I am he, and he is me. ALL life is sentient. For instance, our genes hold all the Wisdom of the Uni-Verse. Uni-Verse means “One Song”. Believing there is another entity outside ourselves; a god….is duality.
Imagine Isa ibn Maryam's (AS) take on this.. this definitely gives me a different perspective on the Gospel of John in the New Testament of the Christian Bible. Alluhu Alim.
I think the distinction of self is important. In fact necessary to know. When you know yourself you know God. But still hold the individual self, choice. The choice is the separation and union. When we know our self and God we become two in one. When we realize outer self (not self/other beings) we become 3 in one. When we know all selves we know God. Thus all is known that needs to be known. When we know the world… etc. Immortality is the realization of a continuous self streaming from the Great Mother, Awareness of self, that interacts with the choice , The Being. Both being together God and Self, which in totality is Gods reflection. Which is God awareness of self, that brings the choice.
Thank you David for this fantastic reading, This book is probably the most profound book and will only be understood when the “reader” is at a true state of letting go of all previous concepts. The last 4 minutes are fabulous. ❤️.
I looked up this saying and if people accepted this hadith that says "whoever know themselves, knows their Lord", and I found out it's not really accepted and people say someone else said this.
If you are a common person, listen to it many times and you will understand a bit of its message. If you are a scientist, probably by listening once or twice, it will open you to the curiosity of mysticism. 😁
"You don't know god if you believe you can pass away" "everything passes away except his face" "Acknowledging that others subsist from him is polytheism" I found myself scratching my head at many supposed contradictions of both the text itself and of the verses within the quran. I am surprised no one in the comments has brought them up. I usually appreciate sufi texts in their devotion to transcendentalism in monotheistic worship but when the "self" is introduced and elaborated upon it seems to fall apart logically. And it cannot be argued that "it's both" because that would introduce polytheism. The quran states that of knowledge, we have only been given a little, yet it appears as if this sufi text attempts to deny that fact by asserting that it is even possible to fully know the self and then through that knowledge, fully know God. This was an interesting thought experiment, but it ultimately does not hold itself up when put under scrutiny nor when compared to the original text of Allah's authorship, the quran.
not really because the self and other are still one i think that "others subsist from him is polytheism" means that like there is no True Other to God, because god is everything/everyone as humans, we do indeed not have the full knowledge of reality, but that is merely an illusion, but also right now a truth in our current 'normal' experience when you realize yourself as god, and reach a state where you experience being god, the illusion reveals itself as such and you get to experience everything (i think this is known as Haqq-ul-yaqeen in sufism)
@@Aspiracy it doesnt matter if reality is an illusion, we do not have full knowledge of anything, be it reality or the truth (God). Not even the prophets on them be peace have uttered likeness of themselves to their creator, some things are plain and simple and it appears as though sufism flirts with the risk of likening wayward mysticism to spiritual wisdom. There is a necessary humility in constantly asking for God to guide us and never acting as if we can guide others. These texts are actually mere opinions of people whereas we have the literal word of God to spend life studying (the glorious quran). My own reflections tell me to veer away from this kind of writing because i believe it requires arrogance and hubris to maintain, and these are clear vices that God tells us to banish from the heart. Ultimately, I can only put my faith in God alone.
@@noosy530 that is true. follow your own path and heart, any text from anyone is something you choose to consider in your journey or not, but in the end, you will return to god and will realize it by yourself. "Don’t be satisfied with stories, how things have gone with others. Unfold your own myth.” as rumi says.
Thank you for this wonderful upload 🙏🏼 Can anyone please explain why the author refers to God by the masculin pronoun ‘him’ ? The feminine aspect of God seems to be excluded here which is surprising from authors like Ibn arabi and. Balyani .. Is it a matter of mis-translation? Thank you, nour ala nour
it likely comes from a translation of the arabic word ‘huwa’ (هو) which can mean literally “he” but is also used for instances where gender is unknown, ‘hiya’ (هي) or “she” is only ever used in the feminine form, while huwa can technically describe something either or neither male/female and Allah does not have a gender, so هو is used
Well, Ibn Arabi was a muslim saint thus follows the Quran to the last dot. Quran describes God in masculine and plural terms (We) and ibn arabi is following that in his description of God.
Honestly, Islam pre Saudi oil money was beautifully practiced around the world. Then with money came the influence of Salafism and Wahhabism and its infecting all previously Sufi Islamic countries, bringing in a strand of super hard line and intolerant Islam. It’s so so sad.
It's funny that quantum physics is discovering all these words in this book. I'd not know why so much knowledge was lost in the world and at some times I wonder how I come to know things people dont know
Same question here. Ibn Arabi had always been in debate with other philosophers of his time. It’s probable that he is responding to something they had said. I’m going to research that
Hello there. Passing away of that passing away means that the personality is completely annihilated in the Essence that you are not even aware that you you had a personality. When we become aware of only our Essence or God or the Soul, we don't even know we had a personality or ego. God will be all and all we will be aware of as our Reality and Being.
The prophet of mohamadans left the quran only, where does it say whoever knows himself knows his lord? Nowhere. So why attribute such a saying to him at all?
Replace God with Nature, as per Spinoza, as labeling as Him creates a dualism that God, or Nature, is also not a Her, does not possess the feminine aspect of existence. The One or Ground of All Being, also worthy names for God, however That which cannot be named is most apt, as Being is always conditional and is unable to account for itself, without something prior.
You are not you, it is only it and 'everything' happening spontaneously . Just the concept of the me existing in this body is really an ilusion. The rest is real
instead of being so narrow how about you focus on the teachings rather than semantics these people have different language and culture they only use that term to refer the source. most of these cultures have to end up bending the knee so that other lesser beings can understand and conceptualize it
I like the way you describe god and the fact that the is nothing came in existance beside god the creator.......god is so huge and is a huge energy source......What i do not agree with this book personification god.....god is not a man or woman
This is extremism because Tawhid is Pure Monotheism from the Quran and Sunna based on the understanding of the Salaf Salih. While this is philosophical emotionalism that veers off the straight path into the pagan thought patterns of pantheism.It is an overcompensation of inadequacies in understanding filled with an emotional obsession to the point of a fault, producing an intoxicating ecstasy wherein one goes overboard in expression into Shirk.
Your comment is extremism, nothing but a pure expression of idolatry. There's nothing to win here for you neither is there a favour to fall upon you. Your hypocrisy and segregation stands no chance in the light of truth. May you find peace along your way.
“Theologians of the world quarrel, but the mystics of the world agree.”- Meister Eckhart. The truth is the truth. Glory to God
At the core it’s all the same. We are all the same. And what unites us is far greater then what divides. God is Love.

it likely comes from a translation of the arabic word ‘huwa’ (هو) which can mean literally “he” but is also used for instances where gender is unknown, ‘hiya’ (هي) or “she” is only ever used in the feminine form, while huwa can technically describe something either or neither male/female and Allah does not have a gender, so هو is used
Well, Ibn Arabi was a muslim saint thus follows the Quran to the last dot. Quran describes God in masculine and plural terms (We) and ibn arabi is following that in his description of God.
Alpha and the omega but he refers to man and both male and female falls under man but it really depends on the context.

Wonderful!
Honestly, Islam pre Saudi oil money was beautifully practiced around the world. Then with money came the influence of Salafism and Wahhabism and its infecting all previously Sufi Islamic countries, bringing in a strand of super hard line and intolerant Islam. It’s so so sad.

It's funny that quantum physics is discovering all these words in this book. I'd not know why so much knowledge was lost in the world and at some times I wonder how I come to know things people dont know

Can anyone explain what that symbol is? I love it, thank you!
It was designed by Hiroko Nagato-Apthorp, in 2011.
besides that its called a yantra its a tool from god that carries divine energy
Now I know for sure I'm not enlightened😂 all of this sounded like a riddle to me😮😅
Thank you for sharing. Could you explain what "passing away of that passing away" means?
Same question here. Ibn Arabi had always been in debate with other philosophers of his time. It’s probable that he is responding to something they had said. I’m going to research that
@@ibrahimkhatib6191 found smth?
Probably refers to ego. Sufism has similar concept of Fana
Hello there. Passing away of that passing away means that the personality is completely annihilated in the Essence that you are not even aware that you you had a personality. When we become aware of only our Essence or God or the Soul, we don't even know we had a personality or ego. God will be all and all we will be aware of as our Reality and Being.
It’s like Rumi proclaimed:” die before death ‘
Thanks!
Sounds familiar.

Thankyou
who do we give gratitude to ?
Your Self, God, all beings, life itself.
The prophet of mohamadans left the quran only, where does it say whoever knows himself knows his lord? Nowhere. So why attribute such a saying to him at all?
Replace God with Nature, as per Spinoza, as labeling as Him creates a dualism that God, or Nature, is also not a Her, does not possess the feminine aspect of existence. The One or Ground of All Being, also worthy names for God, however That which cannot be named is most apt, as Being is always conditional and is unable to account for itself, without something prior.
You are not you, it is only it and 'everything' happening spontaneously . Just the concept of the me existing in this body is really an ilusion. The rest is real

But it had much deeper meaning.

That's a lot of He's and Him's in here...
I'm pretty clear on one thing, he is not a him!
instead of being so narrow how about you focus on the teachings rather than semantics these people have different language and culture they only use that term to refer the source. most of these cultures have to end up bending the knee so that other lesser beings can understand and conceptualize it

I find the Mohamed part very confusing, I would apreciate someone trying to phrase it differently so maybe I can better understand.
Best to just take what you get and let go of any confusion.
@@ZenPsych throw the Book awa y?
I like the way you describe god and the fact that the is nothing came in existance beside god the creator.......god is so huge and is a huge energy source......What i do not agree with this book personification god.....god is not a man or woman
god is polymorphic it is everything including you

the worst translation of the real writings ever made imo .
Then translate this for us..much appreciated
This is extremism because Tawhid is Pure Monotheism from the Quran and Sunna based on the understanding of the Salaf Salih. While this is philosophical emotionalism that veers off the straight path into the pagan thought patterns of pantheism.It is an overcompensation of inadequacies in understanding filled with an emotional obsession to the point of a fault, producing an intoxicating ecstasy wherein one goes overboard in expression into Shirk.
Lawlessness and whimsical desires are the religion and God of the zindiq
Your comment is extremism, nothing but a pure expression of idolatry. There's nothing to win here for you neither is there a favour to fall upon you. Your hypocrisy and segregation stands no chance in the light of truth. May you find peace along your way.
Are you Muslim?
@@juliancarax8949 Are you Muslim
maybe your mind is so self-identified that you simply aren't able to understand.
Nonsense
