When I first entered into the Healing Arts, one of my Teachers was a Sicilian Sufi. She was a Doctor. She Introduced me to Another Way of Living. I wasn’t ready for some of the things I learned at that time because I was still Indoctrinated into my Religious Creed. Everything she said was the Truth and I AM forever Greatful. As a Master Student, I have studied with and under some of the Greats. The More I Learn? The More I Realize I don’t know Shit. Study Long.

I only ever had the pleasure of reading graves' "The Greek Myths and Legends" and "The Golden Fleece", and to be entirely honest, I was completely ignorant as to just how prolific a writer the man clearly was! I thoroughly enjoyed those two books and am sure I'd love much, if not all of his others. In all, in reading those books, I did get the feeling that he and I could've been good friends if space and time had put us together.I actually bought copies of "The Greek Myths and Legends" as gifts for two friends, too. I just loved his style so much - how open he was to the esoteric. Thank you, Spiritual Relief, for putting him on my radar again. I've got some reading to do.

@@spiritualreliefchannel FYI in Indonesia during the East Hindia Era, there a lot of Freemason lodges in Java. In my home town alone, Bandung, there are several masonic lodges but only a few that still around as some random cafe, boutique, or totally abandoned. The famous one are called Sint Jan Lodge (Saint Jan) that was demolished long ago and Al Ukhwah mosque is built upon its ruin. As far as I know, Madam Blavatsky herself is visited some of this lodges during this time. Interestingly, members of this fraternity are either an educated Javanese-born nobility or very pious and deeply spiritual 'clergyman', note that I was highlighting the 'Javanese' because stereotypically they're tend to embraced mysticism rather than orthodoxy in their religious life, pretty different from the Sundanese in Bandung that tend to be more identified with the traditional Islamic faith and teaching.

@@moch.farisdzulfiqar6123 what an interesting observation. Let me ask your opinion on a few things that spring to mind. Do you believe that the Sunda have always been less mystical in their beliefs than the Javanese? Certainly over the last ten years there has been a noticeable spread of non-mystical Islam westwards, therefore I have assumed it to be a fairly recent difference. Not least as I understand that 'Salafi' practices came to Bandung, via ethnically Javanese residents from Cirebon. I have read that Theosophy had a major impact on Kejawen, but am rather sceptical. I understand that the Dutch colonists were ardent Theosophists and that indeed some of this same Javanese nobility had embraced Theosophy. But I had also assumed that these Javanese were mostly those living in Jakarta and as you say Bandung. Of course I can see where Theosophy may have influenced Kejawen, but had written this off as common antecedents. So Kejawen is influenced by Majapahit Shaivism whilst Blavatsky was influenced by Tibetan Tantrism. Certainly, I can find no evidence of Theosophy in the village heartland of Java. Finally how does Free Masonry relate to all this? Again I can see it being important to the Dutch colonists and a displaced Javanese nobility. But this seems to be entirely absent from the village heartland of Java. Of course I am making a distinction here between what might be called folk Kejawen and Kraton (or high) Kejawen, but really do believe that the villages of Gunung Kidul inherited the Majapahit legacy to an even greater extent than the Kratons.

@@TheMagicofJava I like your opinion, but I can't answer your second question because I just know that they're used to be around, gathering some of our educated people, then President Soekarno banned their activity in the Republic and the rest is history. They're definitely shapes Bandung in some way, in particular, through architecture and city planning. But not the psyche of her people and Sundanese culture in general. As for the first question, it's quite tricky to say, since we need to consider which Sundanese people we are talking about. Are they from Bandung, Sukabumi, Kanekes, Garut, or Kuningan. In Bandung alone, there are similar spiritual community at the surface, but radically different if we come to their gathering and went we discuss their cosmology. I myself a honored member of Besdaya community that educate and promote Sundanese calendar, we talk about some stuff that similar to this channel and something that sounds like out of Terrence McKenna's lecture, when we discuss a Sundanese cosmology. Unlike Sunda Academy community in Dago, founded and lead by LQ Hermawan (Abah Uci), that concern in spiritual awakening and Wiwitan Sunda (notice that I make a distinction with Sunda Wiwitan here, because the later are exclusively held by Urang Kanekes/Baduy). Yet, their topics of discussion, their hub, and meditation practice are more like Hinduism. So yeah, it's quite complex and nuanced. But in my opinion, the Sundanese are not less mystical in tendency compared to the Javanese, only more subtle like in the famous story of Kabayan (which is very sufistic and similar to Abu Nawas and Nasrudin Khoja) and perhaps in some way could be seen as rational such as the philosophy of Tritangtu. Also, some of this people that I met seem like they're didn't even realized that what they think and they do are mystical in nature, and I have a funny story about this, back then in the community of Teater Lakon, there are some dudes that was slack off and one of them come with some wild idea to worship a palm tree in front of Al Furqon mosque. These guys then gathered around this said palm tree and begin to chanting a sacred Sundanese mantra 'Hung, Ahung!' complete with ritualistic gesture. Could you guest what is happened next? Suddenly, in the clear sky, a thunderbolt struck that palm tree! Then one of them cry, "I'm sorry God, it was an improvisation." There's a lot more that I could tell, but so far that's all I can said regarding my point of view. I myself are not practicing Sufism or Wiwitan Sunda, just some seeker that influenced with Western philosophy (especially Nietzsche's thought), Sufism in here and there, and Taoism.
Isn't Sufism a word with diverse interpretations, but one rooted in Islam? In the formative period, says a leading female scholar of Sufism, Sufism meant mainly an interiorization of Islam, ''a personal experience of the central mystery of Islam, that of tauhid, ''to declare that God is One.''

Moved to isolated location (out of CA) and began a 30 yr. hermitage where I self taught EVERYTHING. (No internet) One of my discoveries, was SUFI parables. I bought every one I could get my hands on. LOVED them ALL! And it’s true, I understood them all and wondered if I was a Sufi in a previous life. The other text I fell in love with also, and wondered the same was the Tao te Ching. Interestingly, you never mention a single parable. I never became attached to any one particular author cuz didn’t have the info.

When i began my spiritual journey it was Sufism that resonated most to me, but it was made apparent to me that to be a Sufi i had to be a devout Muslim; and that i couldn't do. I have nothing against Islam, or any religion for that matter. I was just honest with myself that i would be unable to bow to the east five times a day. So i went the route of the Rosicrucian instead. If i had to identify with any religion I'd say that Sikhism best describes how i live my life

I’m not a Sufi or anything so what I write is not in defense of Sufism. However, as far as I know Sufism and Freemason are can never meet. Freemasonry is a hidden discriminatory (to the outsiders) society. It thrives for money and power and keeping it secret by any means. However, true sufism is pure spirituality which aims to focus on the non-material world and raise awareness of the self and the creator. I couldn’t quite understand the bunching together of these groups. But it was a very good clip overall. I take it as an invitation under the cover of a fake-criticism.

@@nylondaimon You should try to ponder about faith in God aka the All Wise, the One and our small paradigm - however wide and broad it may be - is inside a infinite one, and from there comes submission into making our dissonance sometimes just be and learning to submit in faith (which is the definition of Islam) to the One, whilst at the same time learning and inquiring towards bringing that dissonance into harmony. But it all comes from a certain core point of faith, from there it will not be complete serenity, since this world will never be a completely peaceful paradise. Our soul - belonging to paradise - suffers in this temporary world, whilst it is being tested and whilst we keep purifying ourselves. Submission isnt always easy, it is work in progress for me. But I believe in Allah and his prophet Muhammed and all other messengers and prophets from Ibrahim to Isaac and Jacob etc. Try to take steps towards Him and he will met you with many more steps inshaAllah.

Where does one look for guidance from true Sufis in the US? Is it still recommended to reach out to Idries Shah's old organizations or have they fulfilled their purpose and become inactive spiritually?

He was a later teacher. Sufism has been known under many names in different times and places. Also known as the ancient science of man, it is a path to higher evolution. It pre-dates Islam but flourished in those cultures for centuries.
In Don Quixote, which was written by Francis Bacon, as he himself says, " this book was given to me by Cide Hamnete Benengeli," which means, " Lord Crown Prince, Son of England." Francis Bacon, making the name up from were he was initiated, September, 1581, by Duc Anne de Joyeuse ( Anne Hath- A-Way) from Qui-LLan and Pech D'en Couty.

I have a lot of questions and don't want to be a weirdo. Is there secret things that I shouldn't say? I've never been good with rules or secrets, I sneeze when I see the sun, evolutionary response to survive in dark poorly ventilated conditions. Are they underground? I've been trying to figure out what kept those before me in darkness. I thought it was Mormons.

He may have simply gotten tired of going to lodge it happens one can demit anytime that the equivalent to putting in a 2 weeks notice at work meaning they are free to return to lodge should they choose to, or so long as you pay dues you don't really have to go to lodge. Once a Mason always a Mason. Now one can be expelled permanently or temporarily suspended but the first is only if one was to be found guilty of a crime perticularly a felony, the other could be simply getting into an argument with another Brother in lodge to the point of causing a disruption 😊

Freemasonry & especially later Adoptive Rites, such as OES, borrowed much symbolism from older spiritual traditions. In this sense, Freemasonry preserves much related to ancient religion. However, perhaps 90% of Freemasons do not realize this & don’t care. This may be why modern evangelicals are afraid of Freemasonry.
