Mode of Cosmic Therapy; “IT” is a Fragrant Realization In Resolution

It was here before we got here. It is here while we are here. It will be here after we leave. We must get with it. It will not get with us. It remains constant. It materializes. It dissolves. It appears to change in the midst of finding its new rhythm and form. In the process of expansion, it remains still, unmoved and unaffected by the progression and development. It is life and life more abundant. It is death and death more pronounced. From the center of the surrounding substance (which is also it) personalities are formed and unformed, nations are birthed and destroyed. It is the ever present gravitational pull and the removal of it. It ever expands and becomes more complex. It contracts and becomes simpler. In the interim, it is neither complex nor simple but something beyond our comprehension. It radiates out from the center of itself but never without incorporating itself. All things are found in it and not anything exists outside of it. And, yet it exists before and after it expands or contracts.

From it comes all the energy {as we understand energy} needed to promote the urge for growth, self-expression and creative expansion. No personal human emotion is added or subtracted to alter its course. It is all and in all. Nothing exists outside of it except the inside of it. It is all consuming, all pervading, all encompassing. It is pushing mankind to the next stage of evolution but in all actuality is already evolved and needs no expansion whatsoever. It gives of itself to unfold itself. Its natural spontaneous eternal essence gives without regard to infinite expression. It is unconscious of itself and conscious of everything.

To give and receive without thought of reward or recognition is the one true desire of it funneled through mankind of which man is currently unaware. Pleasure is the impetus. Art/music/drama/writings its mistress, the spoken word its flesh. Any desire of man not seeded in providing more pleasure in life will ultimately be dispensed in misery and sorrow by it. The more one gives the more one lives. If one can get with this undeniable fact, he/she will not only eliminate every personal desire of gain for oneself alone, but shall have no problem in releasing the idea that any such idea exists. The indispensable joke’s on you! When you take upon yourself the realization that there’s virtually no separation from the Infinite It within you and others; you will then and only then be liberated. True bondage is self-will, self-gratification, self-aggrandizement and the thought of self-control! {Brought about by/through competition, comparison, and the patterned cadences in between the two}You are comprised totally all of these attributes combined and none of them at the same time. Why do you wrestle with them so as if you possibly make a difference?

Realizing there is ultimately no personal self that exists that needs exalting, promoting, or preserving releases the intent to prove there is a separate distinct human being. It is happening (unfolding) as (in) you! You are merely trying to take credit or blame for it. Neither one is applicable. By remaining perfectly still, {in the activity of movement} while at the same time being pliable enough not to be influenced by the seemingly changeless flux of activity occurring in and around you, (whether negative or positive) eliminates the erroneous idea of a personal “me”. It disintegrates the need for a personal expression in vain glory. It relinquishes the petty need to feel ‘special’. If it exists, it is special. Not some of it but all of it. (The good, the bad and the ugly, the hideous, unacceptable the unworthy, the rich, the poor, the intelligent, the stupid, the beautiful, the chaste and the immoral) It has created all of these forms out of its own desire to experience itself. The idea that there’s something inherently wrong or immoral in its desire is utterly absurd.

The desire for pleasure is necessary for the growth involved in experience. What is more necessary than to incorporate the reality that every single desire presents an experience not to be analyzed or interpreted nor commented upon, but of and for the event itself? Simply be present in it; feel it completely. Any personal interpretation of the matter is superfluous at best and pointless at worst. Every conceivable human action is generated by and through desire. [THE DESIRE OF PLEASURE TO KNOW.] It’s simply not personal. Why try to prove that it is? “…vanity; all is vanity…” {paraphrased} Some desires seem to lead to mistakes, but these so-called mistakes are not as they appear. Every action is motivated by, in, out, and through a sacred desire that is incapable of being expressed, tabulated, judged or terminated in ‘so-called’ mistakes by human terms. It lies behind every expressible form or fashion. True education comes about ONLY through the process, involvement, and encapsulating of one’s desires. In the midst of following an instinctual desire, emotion floods in, followed by self-centered ambition, greed, gluttony, and a FLASE sense of “IMPORTANCE.” Therefore, the delegated occasion leads to the ‘getting’ of that something which does not add or subtract from the essence of the person when the experience is concluded. Ultimately one discovers that these pigeon holed desires lead to nothing but unending dissatisfaction. A proverbial repetitive ‘begging bowl’ scenario is set up for no other purpose than to abolish it.

In the process of this repetitious cycling of desires, one exhaustedly comes to the light of understanding that in and of itself, the function of pleasure is to propel one into the realm of giving, not getting. In order to give, one must release. Release the idea and notion that anything or anyone has ever harmed you in any way whatsoever. It’s simply not true. It has occurred for divine inexpressible reasons. It is impossible to be cheated, abandoned, neglected, abused or sacrificed in this life. It is unfeasible for you to think you have been used. It is in progress of revealing itself to itself. IT neither offers nor provides any reasonable or acceptable explanation to you, personally. There is a great work; a marvelous inconceivable art being erected in the process but you will never be able to see IT. What you think you see in reference to yourself is your own blundered, blurred, burped misconception of one more emotional trial you experience.

You will be able to see incredible hints of it at times. Other times, you will hear faint lyrical ineffable expression. But, more often than not, you will be able to smell the divine! YES the inexplicable sexual scent of the divine makes itself known to you. But, not often because you are blinded by your own sense of self-pity, wallowing in the seemingly horrid injustices that have occurred to you. At other times, you will not see it; because you will be too busy basking in the limelight of your own supposed greatness. Realize this if you realize nothing else: No other person helps you or hinders you in the “IT” happening process. It is not singularly you or the other person but IT that links the both of you which binds you for the divine purpose. When you see a personal you in it or a personal other in it, you have left it. It is imperviously impersonal.

Each and every miscalculated step of seeming reversal, contrary motion, indecision, blatant competition, vanity and self-elevation are necessary for you to arrive at that place where unfettered actualization is realized. And, it is most necessary for you to ‘trust your feet’ wherever they are planted and wherever they take you for they are always standing upon Holy Ground. No where can you reside that you are not where you are supposed to be at the time. Stop trying to figure it out. You simply can’t. The best you can do is to accept what it is taking place without knowing why. Has “IT” happened yet? IF you can say IT has, you can rest assured you’re not even close to IT!

Here are some examples of what you can expect from a caster of real spells, such as hoodoo spell caster Talia from http://www.TaliasTarot.com – whose testimonials are evidence of her truth.

Q. Will you cast a free magic spell?
A. No. Spells require ingredients and time — someone must pay for these one way or another, and I simply can’t spend all my time and money to cast free spells for strangers.

Q. How much does a magical spell cost?
A. All my witchcraft spells are customized to the individual client and situation, and as a result, there is no flat rate I can quote. Overall, the price range would fall in the realm of $70 to $300 per magic spell. If you are on a budget, feel free to mention it right at the start, and I’ll make an effort to accommodate you.
The price for every one of my spells and magic is calculated on the basis of $50 for the first day of work and $25 per additional day, plus the cost of occult materials (candles, oils, etc.) Magick spells usually take 1 – 7 days of spell casting, and materials tend to run $20 and upward; average cost of materials is about $50. I also encourage anyone looking for spellwork to buy a magic spellcast tarot reading, which is an additional $22; Please note that there are some types of magic work I absolutely will not perform without a spell reading (see below).

Q. Can I work out a payment plan for my magical spells?
A. I am willing to consider payment plans ONLY on money/prosperity spells that have had a spellcast reading to determine their effectiveness.

Q. What if I don’t want a reading for the spellcast?
A. Not every case needs a reading. However, if I say yours needs a reading, I mean it, and I cannot proceed until you get one.
It breaks down like this: Unless you get a reading first, I will not perform spells for influence/control/effect on another person (such as love spells, job spells and reconciliation spells, among others). These are particularly difficult workings to begin with, and the person asking for the magic spell doesn’t always know the full story. I can’t craft an accurate spell without accurate information; thus the absolute necessity of a reading. This is NON NEGOTIABLE.
If the spell only effects you (an uncrossing magic spell, a magick luck spell, etc) then a reading is still encouraged but might not be required.

Q. Why do you need to do a reading for some spells?
A. Imagine if you’d been in a terrible accident and your whole body was disfigured: would you just call a surgeon on the phone and demand they agree to perform reconstructive surgery without even letting them see what they have to work with? And would any legitimate surgeon agree to such a thing? No, and no.
The purpose of a reading is to give me a blueprint for the spellwork, and to determine what combinations of materials will bring you, the client, the most satisfactory results. Without the reading, I’m only making an educated guess about what will work. The more difficult a spell is, the less likely it is to succeed in general; doing a reading assures the highest potential success by providing extra information about what the spell should attack, how the parties will react, and so on. The fact is, there are thousands and thousands of spells in the world. Asking for a “love spell” isn’t any more specific than asking for “Chinese food.” There are lots of types of love spell, and lots of varied recipes for each of those types. The reading allows me to narrow things down to find the best possible spell for your case. It’s very tedious work and often takes several hours of me sitting stooped over a deck of cards, listing colors and conjure formulas till favorable combinations start showing in the layouts. However, I don’t want to waste my time or your money on a spell that probably won’t work; and trust me, on a difficult case, not just any spell will work. Favorable effect relies on its being very precisely crafted. The reading tells me what to craft.

Q. How do I pay for the spells and magic?
A. Once I’ve agreed to do a hoodoo spell for you, I will calculate the cost and, after confirming with you, I will send you a payment request via Paypal for the amount.

Q. Will I get bad karma/go to Hell for having one of your spells cast?
A. That would be a religious opinion and is not really for me to declare. I do incline to say, however, that if you believe the spell you want is ‘bad’ then passing it off to be performed by a spellcaster isn’t going to absolve you of responsibility.
Also, please remember I do not cast wiccan spells – I cast hoodoo spells or voodoo spells.

Q. What’s your success rate?
A. I honestly don’t know. I usually don’t hear anything back from clients one way or another, so there’s not really a way for me to keep statistics.

Q. I found this particular white magic spell online/in a magic spell book/my friend told me, will you perform it?
A. It depends on the spell, but I’m willing to at least consider most. Odds that I’ll agree tend to be better if the magic spells in question doesn’t presume to a particular religion.

Note that I might not accept every case.

Ever since I can remember, I have been fascinated with two topics, Zen and quantum physics.  Along the way there have been many things that have caught my fancy, from writers, film makers, philosophers and psychologists.  But I always come back to Zen and physics, especially quantum physics. 

I don’t pretend that this essay is original, many have written on the topic with much more authority than me.  Even though I have no scientific background, I will try and delve a little more deeply than books like The Secret with the topical quotes from ‘international coaches and speakers’ like (I am paraphrasing) “new discoveries in quantum physics prove that our thoughts create our realities” or from Ig Nobel prize winner Deepak Chopra for this brilliant piece of writing, which I found on Wikipedia,

“Quantum healing is healing the body mind from a quantum level. That means from a level which is not manifest at a sensory level. Our bodies ultimately are fields of information, intelligence and energy. Quantum healing involves a shift in the fields of energy information, so as to bring about a correction in an idea that has gone wrong. So quantum healing involves healing one mode of consciousness, mind, to bring about changes in another mode of consciousness, body.”

I think he was really burning the midnight oil, (and maybe some other substances) when he wrote that one.  It is extremely easy to fall into ridiculous clichés when discussing these topics, but by doing so they lose all their mystery. Somehow, the subatomic world of quarks, photons and electrons is as wonderful as the Big Bang and Black Holes, Haikus and the Bodhidharma.

While classical physics, and even Relativity are understandable, if vaguely sometimes, the quantum mysteries are still mysteries for even the physicists themselves, and that I find very appealing. The key mystery for each human being is the origin and destiny of their own essence and what is our essence other than our consciousness? Consciousness, personal and impersonal, is the key to Zen. To become enlightened is to leave your personal consciousness and enter the universal consciousness. You realize you are not a pinky, but part of an entire body. Easy to conceptualize but very, very difficult to feel completely.

In quantum theory subatomic particles exist in probability waves, and are only defined when “something conscious” observes them.  Otherwise they are everywhere and nowhere.  This may be a simplification, but it captures the essence of the enigma.  The famous phrase from Einstein about God not rolling the dice comes from this mystery.  Einstein wanted a deterministic universe, but unfortunately, he didn’t get it.  Schrodinger summed it up in his famous thought experiment about whether the cat is dead or alive.  The thought experiment helps us to focus on the mystery of state.  What state is the cat in before someone observes?  It’s not clear.

 Schrödinger, one of the founders of quantum theory, wrote:

“One can even set up quite ridiculous cases. A cat is penned up in a steel chamber, along with the following device (which must be secured against direct interference by the cat): in a Geiger counter, there is a tiny bit of radioactive substance, so small that perhaps in the course of the hour, one of the atoms decays, but also, with equal probability, perhaps none; if it happens, the counter tube discharges, and through a relay releases a hammer that shatters a small flask of hydrocyanic acid. If one has left this entire system to itself for an hour, one would say that the cat still lives if meanwhile no atom has decayed. The psi-function of the entire system would express this by having in it the living and dead cat (pardon the expression) mixed or smeared out in equal parts.

It is typical of these cases that an indeterminacy originally restricted to the atomic domain becomes transformed into macroscopic indeterminacy, which can then be resolved by direct observation. That prevents us from so naively accepting as valid a “blurred model” for representing reality. In itself, it would not embody anything unclear or contradictory. There is a difference between a shaky or out-of-focus photograph and a snapshot of clouds and fog banks”

 Basically, the cat is neither alive nor dead till someone observes it.  I love the last sentence.  It captures the essence of quantum theory.  The theory is clear, but the laws are ‘murky’ as Schrodinger puts it.

 Applied quantum theory works wonderfully; it has enabled much technological advancement from microchips to lasers.  There is no debate about whether it works or not.  It is real.  Most scientists spend their time on the practical applications and leave the “spooky” part to others.  What has fascinated me is the idea that our consciousness plays an active role in creating reality.  No one imagines the world will end when they die.  It clearly continues once our consciousness disappears in death (I will assume here it does). 

 As a young history student, I was always fascinated by Calvin’s concept of pre-destination.  I found it disturbing that we had no choice in the final outcome.  God was all knowing, hence he knew before he created us whether we would be saved or not.  In a sense, Einstein was a Calvinist, and the Niels Bohr, the principal figure in quantum theory, was a Catholic.  The Catholic Church disputed the predestination theory, arguing the sacraments allowed a person to ‘choose’.  A photon can be a particle, or it can be a wave.  What converts it from wave to particle is some ways appears to be conscious observation.

The riddle of Zen is a different one.  By ‘being’ the conscious observer, we ‘lose our consciousness’.  The greatest obstacle to enlightenment is the ego.  Zen also has its own thought experiments, Koans in the Rinzai tradition. A Koan is something that one meditates on, with the hope that at some point, the conscious egoic mind tires and breaks down and the truth hits you, but not through the thinking mind.  The most famous Koan and the first one given to many students is Mu. 

“A monk asked Zhaozhou, a Chinese Zen master (known as J?sh? in Japanese): “Has a dog Buddha-nature or not?”, Zhaozhou answered: “Wú” (in Japanese, Mu).”

Students will spend weeks, months, even years looking for “Mu”.  But they will never find it with logic, they must transcend the logic.

One of the great axioms of Buddhism is Form is Emptiness, and Emptiness is Form.  Try to imagine a circle drawn perfectly on a white piece of paper, in black ink.  What is inside the black line is the form, the black line is the emptiness.  Not easy?  Does it remind you of the cat being alive and dead?  To feel alive and enlightened I must fully realize that I don’t exist.    Niels Bohrs said “If quantum mechanics hasn’t profoundly shocked you, you haven’t understood it yet.”

 Einstein said, “I can’t accept quantum mechanics because it involves spooky actions at a distance.” For example, two electrons from the same hydrogen atom fly out into space in different directions and they are millions of light years apart.  Each has a ‘spin’, up or down let’s say.  One must be up, and the other down, but we don’t know which is which until we measure.  And once we measure one, the other one “somehow knows”.  Einstein’s spooky action.  Communication faster than the speed of light, or maybe some sort of movement back in time as some have suggested.

I wish I could offer the great unifying theory of Zen and Quantum Physics, but that would be like finally sleeping with my great unrequited love, and at this point, I prefer to maintain the mystery and keep her at a “spooky distance.”

The Sons of the Lord God in Bible versus Quran (18)

This is the 18th article of the series:” The Sons of the Lord God in Bible versus Quran”.

The Bible says: I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life.  We know that anyone born of God does not continue to sin; the one that was born of God keeps him safe, and the evil one cannot harm him. We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one. We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. And we are in him who is true—even in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.

The Noble Quran says that the Messiah, Jesus Christ, the son of Mary, was only a messenger sent to his people; and it is an unforgivable sin if you say or believe that the Almighty Creator has a son or sons; this major sin will lead to the Eternal Fire in the Hereafter. Also the Quran says that the whole worlds, not only this world, are under the control of Allah.

——————————————————————–

 

The Sons of the Lord God in the Bible (18)

The Bible (1 John 5:13-21) says:

I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life.  This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.

And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him.  If anyone sees his brother commit a sin that does not lead to death, he should pray and God will give him life. I refer to those whose sin does not lead to death. There is a sin that leads to death. I am not saying that he should pray about that. All wrongdoing is sin, and there is sin that does not lead to death. We know that anyone born of God does not continue to sin; the one who was born of God keeps him safe, and the evil one cannot harm him. We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one. We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. And we are in him who is true—even in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life. Dear children, keep yourselves from idols.

——————————————–

 

1 John 5:13-21 in three different versions of the Bible:

 

New International Version

13I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life.

14This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.

15And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him.

 16If anyone sees his brother commit a sin that does not lead to death, he should pray and God will give him life. I refer to those whose sin does not lead to death. There is a sin that leads to death. I am not saying that he should pray about that.

17All wrongdoing is sin, and there is sin that does not lead to death.

18We know that anyone born of God does not continue to sin; the one who was born of God keeps him safe, and the evil one cannot harm him.

19We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one.

20We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. And we are in him who is true—even in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.

21Dear children, keep yourselves from idols.

 

American Standard Version

13 These things have I written unto you, that ye may know that ye have eternal life, even unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God.

14 And this is the boldness which we have toward him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, he heareth us:

15 and if we know that he heareth us whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him.

16 If any man see his brother sinning a sin not unto death, he shall ask, and God will give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: not concerning this do I say that he should make request.

17 All unrighteousness is sin: and there is a sin not unto death.

18 We know that whosoever is begotten of God sinneth not; but he that was begotten of God keepeth himself, and the evil one toucheth him not.

19 We know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in the evil one.

20 And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.

21 My little children, guard yourselves from idols.

 

King James Version

13These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.

14And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:

15And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.

16If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.

17All unrighteousness is sin: and there is a sin not unto death.

18We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.

19And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.

20And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.

21Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.

The Sons of the Lord God in the Quran (18)

The Noble Quran makes the topic of the son(s) of God very clear and says that Allah, the Almighty Creator, has neither a son nor a partner.

In addition, The Quran makes the signs that Jesus was not god very understandable.

The Quran says: O mankind! The Messenger, Muhammad has now come to you with the truth from your Lord; and if you disbelieve in Allah, your disbelief will not harm Him

To Allah belongs all that is in the heavens and in the earth, as possessions, creatures and servants, and such sovereignty is not compatible with the prophet-hood of Jesus. God suffices as a Guardian, a Witness to this.

The Quran decisively forbids saying that Allah has a son.

It is not befitting for the Majesty of Allah to take to Himself a son.

Allah is exalted, magnified; He is above what they associate with Him of son or partners.  Allah is far transcendent above all that they ascribe unto Him!

In Islam, this point is very important faith wise.

1. Again, it is unforgivable sin to say or to believe that the One Almighty Creator [who is Allah or God or the Lord or Jehovah or whatever name(s) you are giving Him] has a son or Sons.

From the Islamic point of view, the conclusion of this essential topic that may establish or destroy the faith is that:

Any one who believe that the Almighty Creator has a son or Sons; he messes up his faith and is considered as a disbeliever and in the afterlife he will end up as an eternal inhabitant of the hell.

Any one who believes that the Almighty Creator has no son or partner, he has a good faith and is considered as a believer; and in the afterlife, he will end up as an eternal inhabitant of the paradise. 

Verses 4:170-171 of the Noble Quran make the topic of the son(s) of God plain, clear and understandable.

——————————————–

 

The meanings of verse 4:170

O mankind! The Messenger, Muhammad has now come to you with the truth from your Lord; with the declaration of Allah’s divine Oneness and the Quran from your Lord. Therefore believe) in Muhammad and the Quran so believe in him and seek what, it is better for you, than that which you are presently seeking.

And if you disbelieve, in Allah, Muhammad and the Quran, then surely to Allah belongs all that is in the heavens and in the earth, as possessions, creatures and servants, and your disbelief will not harm Him; and Allah is ever Knowing of His creation; He is ever Knower of those who believe and those who do not. He is the Wise in what He does with them and in that He ordained that they should not worship other than Him.

 

The meanings of verse 4:171

O People of the Gospel, do not go to extremes, do not go beyond the bounds, do not exaggerate, do not be extreme in your religion and do not say about God except, the saying of, the truth, such as exalting Him above any associations with a partner or a son.

The Messiah, Jesus the son of Mary, was only the Messenger of God, and His Word (that is “Be”) which He conveyed unto Mary and through His word Jesus became a created being, (and a spirit from Him) and through His command, Jesus became a son without a father.

He [Jesus] is here attached to God, exalted be He, as an honoring for him, and not as you claim, that he is the son of God, or a god alongside Him, or one of three, because one that possesses a spirit is compound, while God transcends being compound and the attribution of compounds to Him.

1. Refrain, from this and say what, it is better for you, to say, which the profession of Allah Oneness is.

Verily, God is but One God. Glory be to Him, transcending [the possibility], that He should have a son!

To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and in the earth, as possessions, creatures and servants, and such sovereignty is not compatible with the prophet-hood of Jesus. God suffices as a Guardian, a Witness to this.

In other words, the verse says, Allah is only One God without a son or partner. Far is it removed from His Transcendent Majesty that he should have a son. His is all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth are His servants. And Allah is sufficient as Defender, as Lord of all created beings and He is witness of what He says about Jesus.

——————————————-

 

Verses 4:170-171 of the Noble Quran in four different translations:

 

Verse 4:170

QARIB: o people, the messenger (prophet Muhammad) has come to you with the truth from your lord, so believe, it is better for you. if you disbelieve, to Allah belongs all that is in the heavens and the earth. and Allah is the knower, the wise.

SHAKIR: o people! surely the messenger has come to you with the truth from your lord, therefore believe, (it shall be) good for you and if you disbelieve, then surely whatever is in the heavens and the earth is Allah’s; and Allah is knowing, wise

PICKTHAL: o mankind! the messenger hath come unto you with the truth from your lord. therefor believe; (it is) better for you. but if ye disbelieve, still, lo! unto Allah belongeth whatsoever is in the heavens and the earth. Allah is ever knower, wise.

YUSUFALI: o mankind! the messenger hath come to you in truth from Allah: believe in him: it is best for you. but if ye reject faith, to Allah belong all things in the heavens and on earth: and Allah is all-knowing, all-wise.

 

Verse 4:171

QARIB: people of the book, do not exaggerate your religion. Do not say about Allah except the truth. Indeed, the messiah, Jesus son of Mary, is only a messenger (and prophet) of Allah, and his word (be) which he gave to Mary, and a (created) spirit by him. So believe in Allah and his messengers and do not say: ‘trinity. ‘Refrain, it is better for you. Allah is only one god. Exaltations to him that he should have son! To him belongs all that is in the heavens and in the earth, it is sufficient that Allah is the guardian.

SHAKIR: o followers of the book! do not exceed the limits in your religion, and do not speak (lies) against Allah, but (speak) the truth; the messiah, Isa son of Marium is only a messenger of Allah and his word which he communicated to Marium and a spirit from him; believe therefore in Allah and his messengers, and say not, three. desist, it is better for you; Allah is only one Allah; far be it from his glory that he should have a son, whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth is his, and Allah is sufficient for a protector

PICKTHAL: o people of the scripture! do not exaggerate in your religion nor utter aught concerning Allah save the truth. the messiah, Jesus son of Mary, was only a messenger of Allah, and his word which he conveyed unto Mary, and a spirit from him. So believe in Allah and his messengers, and say not “three” – cease! (it is) better for you! – Allah is only one Allah. Far is it removed from his transcendent majesty that he should have a son. His is all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. And Allah is sufficient as defender.

YUSUFALI: o people of the book! Commit no excesses in your religion: nor say of Allah aught but the truth. Christ Jesus the son of Mary was (no more than) a messenger of Allah, and his word, which he bestowed on Mary, and a spirit proceeding from him: so believe in Allah and his messengers. Say not “trinity”: desist: it will be better for you: for Allah is one Allah: glory be to him: (far exalted is he) above having a son. to him belong all things in the heavens and on earth. And enough is Allah as a disposer of affairs.

How often have you had that “feeling”: that “feeling” that something was about to happen (good or bad)? Such “feelings” are usually classified as premonitions? Is it possible to KNOW: to know about tomorrow, today? Let’s dive deeper! Is time linear or circular? Say what? I know, I know that one is really off the charts, but why don’t we do the Sgt. Friday thing and just stick with “the FACTS”? 

So much of our modern-day problems are our yesterday beliefs! Let’s look at TIME!

Is our division of time into past present, and future really just an ILLUSION? Listen, this might come as a shock to you but since we’re sticking with the FACTS, let it be known that TIME is more linguistic than physical. There has NEVER been a physical experiment performed to detect the passage of time. Wouldn’t you think our physicists would want that?

Even the great Einstein was confounded by the “possibilities of time” as he wrote, “For us faithful physicists, the separation between past, present, and future has only the meaning of an ILLUSION, though a persistent one.” 

How did Jesus KNOW what he KNEW (without going religious on us)?

Sticking with the facts, we have been able to prove TIME TRAVEL (or something akin to it) with Remote Viewing. How’s that work? Have you ever wondered or ventured off the reservation long enough to ask without being persecuted? Dean Radin, J.B. Rhine, and a host of others have been proving that we have presentiment powers. Over and over again, study after study, and experiment after experiment has proven that we have at least a five second warning system. And the PEAR (Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research) laboratory experiments have physicists questioning the linear nature of time.

If time is NOT linear, we are sure going to face some major societal upheavals (could that be bad?).

What I’ve discovered (and it’s growing) from increased MEDITATION is what mystics of old knew. In meditation and the deeper contemplation we can (and often do) step OUT of TIME and experience it as the “eternal now”. As I began to comprehend Spirit (God) as Consciousness, I found myself in un-chartered territory and much like Robert Jahn (in the PEAR experiments), I discovered, as he put it, “Rather than forming its experiences in the ‘here and now’, consciousness may choose to sample the ‘there and then’ realities of life.”

Are you hearing?

Miracles are ON THE WAY and JIT too! 

As a spiritual-futurist, I have a BA degree majoring in history. One cannot know the future without knowing the past which holds clues to what is on the horizon. The world is in such a rapid expansion of knowledge that we are close to entering a tipping point that will forever change earth as we know it.
