theres gotta be a balance between dunya and religion. Dunya (arabic for this worldly life); ppl wud neglect dunya in search of truth to the point of harm, whether to oneself or one's own family due to the neglect (almost radicalism). Prophet Mohammad (pbuh) focused on moderation as in his time there were ppl trying to compete with him in which he explained that they were doing more harm than good due to their neglect of either their families or themselves (health). The struggle in this life is this Balance . Sufism in islam is playing with this fire to many muslims, yet if harnessed can be very beneficial. Knowledge is power, and even rank within monotheistic religions, yet without application can be not only a waste, but possibly even detrimental as there r individuals that withhold knowledge and may suffer punishment from such. Personally, i feel both jewish and islamic mysticism focuses on the death of one's own ego and being receptive to what god gives us including his signs.

Having said that, i think Gurdjieff is cool, creative, erratic and original in ways, but... he doesn't tickle my particularly pickled needs in a mystic, and I don't count him amounts my canonical mystics whom I've learned to trust, love and rely upon, i see GG as more of a quirky curiosity that doesn't demand upon me the need to get to know his mind, but.. if you do feel that way, i can recommend reaching him via Colin Wilson (who i think expresses the essence of GG with less antics and more lucidity) who wrote on GG. And the brilliant short essay on GG in The Cambridge Handbook to Western Mysticism and Esotericism, i can look up the author when I'm back at my computer. Much love. Hope that helped. Would love to hear your story. ♥️

i always thought that judaism is more exoteric and law oriented and christianity is esoteric/mystic. interesting to know about kabbalists.

As far as borrowing theories, I believe our tradition as being sufficiently rich as not to have need and alien import... and so the stoicism -hishtavus- advocated by Bahyah has early historical precedent even in Talmudic sources. if one thinks of Judaism as the “prophetic primordial” religion then it well maybe that the influence went the other way, as indicated by Rabbeinu Abraham ibn Maimon. I don’t understand though, how the very rich and indeed universalist mysticism of Bayaha -of Judaism- ever evolved and convoluted into that exclusivist ethnocentric and racist wild insobriety that is Chabad Chassidus and it’s Tanya... but that’s for a different day... Love your stuff!

Thanks brother. I don't think it's an 'either/or' solution when it comes to the question of external influence vs internal/independent origination. I think that as with any complex issue there are a plethora of causes and influences and intricate inner and inter-actions at play. And just because, for example an idea can be found within a traditions own sources, does not mean it that the idea was 'active' or influential at that particular moment in later history. It's for that reason that i only venture modest claims, shrouded by caveats, and try find actual sources and quotations to an 'outside' tradition before making any such claim. Oof tho brother, i'm a Chabad Chasid and grew up on Tanya and other sacred, if flawed, texts from my beloved, divinely intoxicated lineage. We may have to talk about this another day. With love, Zevi

Oh, I feel kinda bad asking you if you are Jewish in your latest video now. I have some respect for Sufism. What do you think about the antisemitism within Islam? I find Sufism much more accepting overall over other sects of Islam, but they can't escape the hate of Judaism (and other religions) within the Quran and Hadiths. You say it's blamed on God, but what could be done to resolve these differences within the religious scriptures themselves?

@SeekersofUnity

4 жыл бұрын

Haha no problem. The question of hatred within religion is a serious one and one that much be addressed and thought about. However, this applies to all religions and religious scriptures and not just Islam. Based on my small understanding of the relationship between religious scriptures and their lived religious communities, I don't believe that the text, as it is, is the final arbiter of anything. Humans read, understand, translate, interpret, select and teach texts with themselves as the medium and conduit to extract meaning from the otherwise inert text. The same stands true for religious texts and religious readers. I think therefore the way forward is not to attemp to change the text, which almost certainly won't work, but to change ourselves and by extension, the way we read our sacred texts. May it be G-d's will that we only read texts held as holy, in a way that champions love, unity, peace, understanding, tenderness and compassion. And then they shall be truly Holy. Amen.

Interesting that rabbeinu Bachya quotes and reverentially refers to sadyah Goan as “our master”.. Saadia was of course an ardent religious rationalist, with no affinity (so far as anyone can tell) for mysticism. The quote at 4:42 is from a well known Hadith about muhamad I believe.

Just remember, and as several scholars have proven (such as Wasserstrom, Idel, et al), the sephirotic Kabbalah derives its theoretical inspiration and influence from Islamic Neoplatonism (especially the cosmologies of al-Farabi and his students) and has no pedigree before the 9th-10th centuries CE since before this period Jewish mysticism is the Hekhalot and not the sephirotic Kabbalah. It was the circle of Saadia ben Gaon in Baghdad who is credited by Wasserstrom for spawning the Sefer Yetzirah itself.

Don't be so quick to conclude because there is danger in that far more than you would like to believe... You might end up living your life thinking you are walking in God's path but you are not. A quick tip for the true seeker: The core of each spiritual path, tradition, religion and so on, the very heart and soul of it, which functions as the Catalyst for that path, is the Mystical aspect of it, and the end goal of that mysticism. And so, if one wishes to know where will the path he follows leads to, he will get his answer there... For example, the path of the Torah, of Moses and of the Hebrew God is not that of a Unitive mystical experience. As is written in the Torah, the Hebrew God will meet His true seekers "Face to Face" and not "Unite" with them at all, quite the opposite truly... If you are a follower of the Hebrew God beware the words of the Sly Serpent, "you will be like God", for if you aim to be united with God, that is precisely that which the Serpent had offered...

Sin - consists evil, crime - is universal problem, is ubiquitous. Humanity contaminated by sin. Sin in us by default, not learnt, not taught. Sin manifests in many forms. Sin is the opium. The origin of sin is unanswered. Sin is pre-existing in all. Nobody taught us to sin. Sin pre-dates The Bible. The Bible explains origins of sin. The Bible provides remedy for pre-existing sin, through Jesus Christ death and resurrection. The Bible is best selling book in the world for this reason. Sin is real, The Bible is relevant. Sin is born at every child birth. Sin is disease of heart, and Jesus Christ is the cure. Satan is the enemy, came to steal, kill and destroy. Misleads us to blame good loving God. God is not the author of evil. Media, Police, Defense, Judiciary, Penitentiary, Security, Contracts confirm sin exists. The origins of life, natural laws, sin, morals, purpose, meaning, conscience, music, creativity, intelligence, beauty, color, nature, water, air, light and amalgamation, remain unevidenced - elsewhere. God created universe, placed natural laws, made man in His image, gave talents, instructed man to multiply and explore - The Initiation of Science. Science is the legitimate child of natural laws. We are made with good purpose and meaning. We are good. Then sin entered and we all fallen. Disease, despair, deformities, deficiencies, depression, stress, guilt, greed, hate, anger, rebellious spirit, spiritual death entered. Sin plays spoilsport. Unloose the Soul from the tight knot of sin. Soul outlasts death. Sinners cannot save themselves from sin. Jesus Christ, the Holy God, intervened, willingly died on The Cross and resurrected, for remmissions of our sins, to save us from sin and hell. We are weak at the core, however we try to portray otherwise. We need Holy God's help, who is willing to help with open arms. Unable to find any motive any reason for Jesus Christ to die willingly on Cross and resurrect - except His love to save us from pre-existing sin and hell. Nobody died for our sins and resurrected - except Jesus Christ. Exclusivity. Jesus Christ claimed: "I am The Way, The Truth and The Life". "I am The Resurrection and The Life". "I am The Good Shepherd". Jesus Christ has the authority to forgive sins. Religion says "Do". Jesus Christ says "Done". Religion is man attempts to 'search gods'. Jesus Christ came from heaven in 'search of man'. Salvation from sin and hell is not earned through works or deeds or pilgrimages or rituals or ceremonies or traditions or cultures or meditations or public displays or making personal sacrifices or making animal sacrifices. Salvation from sin and hell is free, but not cheap. Because Jesus Christ laid His life on The Cross, and resurrected. God loves the sinner, but hates the sin. Just like a mother loves child, but hates disease in child. We are saved by God's grace, not by our works. Karma is getting what we deserve. Grace is getting what we don't deserve. Only Grace can be pre-fixed with Amazing. Amazing Grace. Karma is not Amazing. GRACE: Getting what we don't deserve - i.e. forgiveness of sin, eternity in heaven through Jesus Christ. MERCY: Not getting what we deserve - i.e. punishment of sin, separation from God, eternity in hell. God offers grace and mercy for free through Jesus Christ death and resurrection. Jesus Christ suffered, ridiculed, spat-on, humiliated, crucified on The Cross, and therefore He understands our pain. He raised victorious, we will too. Those who endure till end are victorious. Jesus Christ coming again to judge all. The doors will be closed. Jesus Christ reveals every mystery, answers every question. He is The Alpha and The Omega. He judges everyone. One day every knee shall bow, every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. The First Coming of Jesus Christ - He is Lamb, slaughtered for remission of sins to save us from sin and hell. And resurrected. The Second Coming of Jesus Christ - He will be Lion, The Judge. The Lion and The Lamb. Jesus Christ forgave all who crucified Him, and now forgives all, even who reject, ridicule and mock Him. He loves all unconditionally. Believe, trust, repent of pre-existing sin in Jesus Christ that He died for remission of our sins and resurrected, and coming back to judge, accept Him as Lord and Saviour, and be saved from sin and hell. Any time, any where. Even now. Simple. Nothing to lose, everything to gain. For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. I found God loved me regardless of sins, weaknesses and rejections by others. As sinner I cannot save myself through deeds. He believed me and has faith in me. God loves you all, individually. (My journey to life journal - after testing all 'isms' and religions, after failing to find origins, purpose and meaning of life, after swallowing pride, egos, anger, hate.)
