LIFE IS DREAM
“Today, a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration. That we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively. There is no such thing as death, life is only a dream and we’re the imagination of ourselves” . . . “Here’s Tom with the weather.”
Bill Hicks said … but he lost his life at a young age. Illuminating with drugs is a “Dark Side” method. In this way you lose both the world, your afterlife, and your health. It is Devil work/way.***
Let us stay that little ingenuity in its origin, and use the human and social one for the explanation…
Each level of consciousness has its own vibration frequency. Each person waves around this frekans broadcasting.
People , whether they are aware or not, with the same or similar vibrations over time come together or tend to come. So look your around well, because each of the people that you see is alike you, or at least a part of it. It is the outward reflection of what is in you.
They did not come out abruptly. You invited them, with the language of state/situation/your capacity.
Even people, events, objects, or even animals that we face in everyday life do not come into existence by chance. Because the outside world is entirely a reflection and projection of our inner world.
*How our dreams are reflection to the imagination world/dimension of our minds, so in same way incidents in world (the face of the world) are appearing and materializing in the material world/dimension.*(Burayı tam çeviremedim. Emin değilim)
Who lead/restore the inner world and succeed in clearing the subconscious, lead a comfortable and peaceful life. One whose inner world in chaos, has had a run of bad luck.
This event can be also generalized to the social consciousness. We have a common/mutual/collective consciousness as a country, a nation. This collective consciousness or social consciousness has its own frequency of vibration and, according to it, has a reflection in the material world. So thats why the difference between the two nations or society is due to the difference between the collective consciousness and the vibrations in it.
So, some nations can have a higher consciousness than others, and they can be stood at a higher and higher level of development. This is not fascism but a solid reality.
Just like the subconscious purification works on the individual plan to do to make us happy (the seyr-i suluk on Sufism), we have to clear our collective subconscious from the skeptical value judgments as the nation. Then the social conflicts will end and peace and tranquility will be established.
Otherwise, no matter who becomes a leader, the turmoil will not come to an end. Because the leader is production/the tendency of dictation of the collective consciousness, leaders will become pathetic if the collective consciousness is pathetic.
If there is no cleaning, there is no peace .
Cleaning income comes from faith.* *(Hadith)
NOTE: Charles Upton is a poet, author, and activist who has published numerous books on Sufism, Metaphysics, and other topics.
Upton says: But I also want to say something about my generation’s experience of psychedelics (I’m soon to be 63, Baby Boom). I took LSD 3 times, magic mushrooms twice, mescaline and peyote innumerable times, nitrous oxide several times (in and out of the dentist’s chair), had one powerful trip on morning glory seeds, and smoked copious quantities of dope. I certainly can’t say that I never learned anything, but I was also damaged in some subtle way. We hippies used to say, “SURE we were a CIA experiment, man — an experiment that GOT OUT OF CONTROL (hee-hee-hee).” I heard the exact same thing from Prof. Huston Smith, who was a close friend. But after going on 24- years on the Sufi path, I finally got to the point where I could see how psychedelics had blocked my further spiritual progress. They open you up on one level, but block you on another, and that other level is very hard to see…”

YEDİ DENİZİN SEYYAHI 
KING DAVID
According to the narration, David’s (his holiness) voice was so impressive that when he read the “Psalms”, mountains, stones and birds joined his dhikr* ring. Of course, we can not expect to understand anything from these expressions today’s the positivist-materialist western educated people,
I also asked myself in the past: What does mean participation of totally lifeless materials, mountains, stones, birds joined David’s in dhikr? The answer of this question, come to realise by my heart gradually over time. I have understood that truth partially myself.
Firstly we need to know of the energetic dimension of the matter and the angels issue in order to be able to understand/perceive this subject.
Lets imagine iron powder on a cardboard, and a magnet underneath the cardboard. The iron powders will immediately line up in the direction of the force field lines of the magnet.
The system of this world, even the universe, is just like this one. We see the movement of the factors apparently, but in reality the backplane is the area of these invisible forces that manage every movement. Each force field has a certain frequency of vibration and a meaning that changes depending on it. Areas with high vibrations dominate areas with less vibrations.
If we comprehend/ are well aware of this knowledge, we can easily understand ourselves the many judgments of religion and countless hidden causes/wisdom even if nobody explains to us .
Yes, all the tangible beings, mountains, stones, winds, clouds, animals and plants we see around us are driven and controlled by these force fields. These are the areas of power that give shape, shape, boundaries, occupation and properties to every being. If this power field is lost, there will be only a handful of dust and ashes left because the power to organize these things has been lost.
After these explanations, I think we can understand how the mountains, the stones and the birds join him while reading the David Psalm. Like every human being, even David had an energetic double(energetic body) and a force field parallel to his physical body. As one begins to chant the divine names, the power field on it starts to be affected, to increase its vibration, and to affect the surroundings.
It happens the event that has been told to us when the power field and the power field of mountains, stones, birds enter the resonance. Even the death of living creatures is possible when exposed to very high power fields.
The special mention of birds in Quran is a special precaution. Because, as mentioned above, each animal has its own power field and its vibration frequency
The more vibration of the force field that is mentioned decreases, the level and value of the related entity also decrease. This truth is important for human beings because when the frequency of vibration decreases, it causes bad morality, and when it rises, it provides a moral of morality. At this point we can easily say that the frequency of the vibrations of spiritual equivalents of prophets and saints is very high and that they are representatives of a high morality. For the same reason, we can anticipate the opening of an interaction gate between themselves and birds. Yes, they talk and communicate with birds fairly.
In addition, we can deduce from the truth that the hidden cause of the forbidding of the flesh of some animals. Therefore, it is advised to avoiding meat of animals whose the vibration is so low that causes decreasing of energy field of the human being, that will lead to bad morals in the end.
This topic goes on. So, if we understand this topic and contemplate well, we can see that we have a key/skeleton key that open all gates and a formulation that gives explanations and solutions of most problems ( especially about regional/spiritual topics).
Note: As I mentioned in the article, we can use this topic to explain many religious aspects. The platitudes of the clouds and the plundering of the rains … as people can summon the clouds through collective prayer …(rain prayer)
We can also say that the wudu (ritual washing in Islam/ablution) and ghusl (full abluation/washing whole body in Islam) are facts of cleansing the negative energetics of the energetic space on the human body rather than a simple/superficial cleansing. Water takes away negative energy. Where does water take it? Of course, to the world’s energetic space/area.
In this circumstances, we do not pollute only the seas with factory wastes , we also pollute the spiritual dimension of the world day by day with our sins, as humanity. These sins return to us as disasters because disrupting and disrupting the energetic dimension of the world like a handful of sand is thrown into a properly functioning mechanism. This situation is reflected in the material plan as natural disasters.
Those who say, “I am free, I commit the sin I want”, should think well. Because the sins we have committed, affect other things, from other people and living things, from wolf to bird.
*Dhikr: “If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.”

“FOOD, AESTHETIC CONCERN
What is the concept of taste?
Why are we seeking for delicious food?
What does that meal, which is just before the delicious appearance, become after it is chewed?
Animals are not looking for tasty food, and even there is no taste concept for them. They simply get energy and raw materials.
Why do not we act like animals?
Would not it be possible to make a slurry that meets all the needs of the body as in the matrix movie, and always eating this same thing?
I am traveling through world cuisine by imagine. Thousands of kinds of food. Fresh, salty, etc … what do I see?
It is as if the soul has touched and connected the world of food and left his own harmony it to it as memory of itself. Because the composition and organization in the matter will inform the spirit.
When we look at it from this point of view, the earth is a dinner table, a divine table. Who is the owner of this table, wants to show his talents to us and receive appreciation and thanks for it. It is a kind of natürel thanking for us when we taste, but that is not enough. As a conscious person human being must express his/hers gratitude to the cosmic chef consciously .
What will happen to us if we avoid the wages in the form as only in thanks and dhikr (remembrance)?
There is a cliché in the american movies, you know … people who do not pay fee for their food will have punishment or or have to wash restaurant’s mountains of dishes. That’s life…
“Then, on that day, you will surely be asked about pleasure.” (At Takathur 8, Quran)”

MUSEUM
God not only wanted to appear own self but also wanted to appear-reflect through “mirror” and masterpieces. God created the universe and human from nothing. So the nature of all beings is nothingness. In any case it could not have been any other way, because the real and only existence is Allah. There is not second (real) existence.
God created the universe and human since he wanted, not he needed. Human thought patterns can fall on us at this point. The needing-neccesity arises from deficiency, helplessness, weakness. Therefore, needing is special to creatures. The concept of needing is invalid since Allah is impeccable-perfect-powerful.
But the God has willing. That is, God “wants”. Wanting is an attribute of God. He also does what he wants because “power” is his adjective.
That is to say, to “want” does not mean to require. It may be a matter of wanting, even for us, even if we do not need it.
Allah has become at some point knowable to create the universe. The secret “kemalat”* has become visible. Human beings have been created as conscious living creatures to examine-realise the universe. The universe is like a museum palace where the Works-masterpieces of an artist are exhibited.
Yes, the world and even the universe is an open-air museum on the scale of vastness.
This museum exhibits the most rare works of art and science-knowledge. Of course, it requires a certain intellectuel level and cultural accumulation in order to understand and appreciate these works. The person lacking such an accumulation is no different from a goatherd peasant in ancient Greek amphitheater in the Mediterranean region.
That’s precisely why we need descriptive and enlightening guides.
Those guides are the prophets and their heirs. They accompanied us during our visit to the museum (in our world) and stand in front of each work and give detailed information about that work.
If man would not commit the first sin, and was not driven out of heaven to the earth, all these high truths would be hiden, the purpose would not be realized, and the system would not work.
From heaven, the true homeland of man, to the realm of matter, is to be assigned to his duty. Since the experience of heaven is static. There is no opposition, no struggle, no evil. The man in heaven has little difference from the angel.
It is necessary to exist much more complex environment for the knowledge and recognition of God. If it would not sin, how would the forgiveness of Allah (Allah’s “Gaffar” name, adjective) be revealed?
Those who commit sin, who regret and demand forgiveness will be forgiven. And God’s mercy, forgiveness will appear.
Those who insist on sin, who do not regret, will be put to hell and the attributes of Allah’s wrath will be revealed. (Şedidül ikab, müntakim, mudil etc …)
Those who follow the commands of God, who go in the right direction despite of the ego and the devil, and those who repent in error, will receive an unprecedented, tremendous, eternal beautiful life as a reward.
It is such a great reward that those who obtain it will be praising and praising for their eternal gratitude to God and for the great pleasure they have get. God is also pleased, (if you’ll pardon the expression) , to make great gifts, to give great rewards. He loves to give, donate.
All these events must clash in order to take place. Otherwise none of the purposes mentioned can be occur.
Do not we see the same phenomena even in the most popular films and series? Who watches a movie without a bad guy?(How would good guy-hero show his heroism without bad guy?) Would it be exciting in that movie?
Love, hatred, hostility, friendship, loyalty, truthfulness, honesty, etc. All the human traits are appear only in challenging environments, so that it becomes clear(for us) who is who, what they cost, what they deserve.

Rumi’s Masnawi 6. book:
“How an inquirer asked (a preacher) about a bird that was supposed to have settled on the wall of a city—“Is its head more excellent and estimable and noble and honourable or its tail?”—and how the preacher gave him a reply suited to the measure of his understanding.
• چون خبرها هست بیرون زین نهاد ** باشد این جانها در آن میدان جماد

• For the elect parrots there is a profound (occult) candy: to that food the eyes of the vulgar parrots are closed.
• کی چشد درویش صورت زان زکات ** معنیست آن نه فعولن فاعلات 160
• How should one who has (only) the appearance of a dervish taste of that purity? It is spiritual reality, not (mere) fa‘úlun fá‘ilát (amphibrachs and cretics).
• از خر عیسی دریغش نیست قند ** لیک خر آمد به خلقت که پسند
• Candy is not withheld from the donkey of Jesus by him (Jesus), but the donkey is naturally pleased with straw.

“Salam/Peace
I was raised in a Muslim family, and was pretty strictly religious growing up. I tried acid for the first time freshman year in highschool- before any other mind altering substances [well, there was that makeshift bong hit in the bathroom but I ran away too fast]. Because Islam says don’t take mind altering substances [though it doesn’t specify] I was paranoid and freaked out. I didn’t think it was that bad- not like the strictly forbidden alcohol] I think I was more freaked out about my parents finding out rather than it being antiIslamic. Nonetheless, it was still a concern. Well, my first few trips didn’t hit too hard but I did end up liking acid.
Now, 15 years after my first trip, I did a search on Islam and LSD. I feel that LSD and other psychedelics have indeed opened up my spiritual eyes. There was a period in my early twenties where I was completely Atheist [I was angry at God, but it wasn’t ”God”s fault- really I found I was just angry at myself] and the healing that brought my spirit back into Light was due to a heavy DXM trip [4th plateau] + cannabis. My material body became so heavy and my blood pressure was so low- that I had another oneness experience [the first one was from smoking pot =) ]. Basically I couldn’t separate my body from the rest of reality- the energetic threads between me and the outside world became visible as radiating and pulsating threads of light, and when I moved my arm- everything moved. I was catatonic for a long time. It was over 6 years ago, so I don’t recall everything in great detail, there was a LOT of information and light coming through- but I was blessed with healing through a Kundalini awakening/rising experience. Bolts of energy moved through my body and involuntarily, I began to make the same movements that a muslim person does during traditional prayer, and also mixed with yoga movements. The existence of God was undeniable- only, the God that I had thought was reality- an angry being, full of revenge and disapproval at my then lifestyle- was everywhere, penetrating my very being, and not this personified idea that people have/that i assumed through my and other peoples readings of the Quran. God was inescapable, because it/he/she was/is everything, always, and ever-present. My heart blasted open, my throat, and my crown. That is a crown awakening.
And these kriyas- involuntary movements, bolts of energy- were definitely something new to me. I had never known about kundalini energy but I knew that the kriyas were moving old energy through my body and clearing my material vehicle. It was amazing.
Cut to present times. Now I consider myself a muslim- but some muslims may not consider me so, since I am more of a mystic / sufi . Another thing I’d like to say for any Muslims researching this topic, or those interested- is the whole structure of a muslims mental framework really effects the trip [as would it to any other religious minded person]. Psychedelics have always helped me delve deeper into reality, and the mind, but now I still find myself very true to my roots. I went through a lot of spiritual struggle, abortion, drug abuse- even alcoholism [i’m free now =)] and I’ve come to find that, for me, personally, being muslim is not just a religion- it’s a lineage. I follow a lineage of persons who have been working on the earth plane for hundreds of years, to move through a specific message of Light. ….
There is reason to this-the whole thing about wudu, keeping the body in a clean state- i’ve found to be true for higher spiritual communication it’s necessary to purify the body-
not that defecation is evil, but that there is specific physical matter that is darker energy [once again, dark doesn’t mean evil- it’s just a different quality of light] which can weigh down the body.
I’m also a seasoned yogi and yoga teacher, and being vegetarian makes a huge quality of difference of energy of the body as far as making the body lighter-meat brings Rajasic [firey] and Tamasic [heavy, dark] energy, which is not good for meditation for awakening [it works differently for different people!] According to yoga philosophy, the universe is made up of three energies [firey/excitable, calm/balanced, dark/heavy/slothful] beginning, middle, end- creation-sustenance-destruction- and I believe that being a Muslim has helped me to connect certain dots [why foods are halal/kosher/blessed- eating dark karma- selfish consumption through another’s suffering] and taking psychedelics has strengthened my spirit and healed it in many ways throughout life.
About Namaz(Salat)- the movements and words in the Islamic prayers are incredibly powerful. Don’t even get me into the power sound has for exorcisms. Being muslim has helped me go through and also conduct several exorcisms and deposessions- with and without psychedelics [though they can help- Ayuhuasca =)]It’s not that the spirits are evil- nothing is truly evil- it’s just that they have separated themselves to some degree from the whole and continue to do so- [i’m talking specifically about lost souls and disbelieving Jinn] and due to certain emotions [often it’s anger, greed, or self loathing] they take out these emotions on God [aren’t able to face them] and separate themselves from Unity [of course this is difficult to eloquently state but I hope you catch the jist- it would take a novel to get all the nuts and bolts screwed here]. These beings really just need love.
You fight fire with water, not with fire.
Back to Namaz- the movements move energy through the spine- the words them selves move energy around and in the body/universe. Words work with the throat chakra and air/ether element. 5 elements.
All is One.
Anyhow, if you are interested or have any comments, i know this thread will come up for someone somewhere interested in this or with some experiences of LSD and ISLAM, hit *reply* or shoot me an email. There’s a lot to it. Remember, set and setting is always and important factor [state of mind as well!]
And I’m happy to be here now. ”

“The holonomic brain theory, developed by neuroscientist Karl Pribram initially in collaboration with physicist David Bohm, is a model of human cognition that describes the brain as a holographic storage network. Pribram suggests these processes involve electric oscillations in the brain’s fine-fibered dendritic webs…” “The theory, in a nutshell: Our brains mathematically construct “concrete” reality by interpreting frequencies from another dimension, a realm of meaningful, patterned primary reality that transcends time and space. The brain is a hologram, interpreting a holographic universe.”

Of course, Panentheism is more acceptable idea than pantheism but according to İmam-ı Rabbani,a great sufi master, reality is different. God created universe from nothing and as a simulation.

About war captives (slaves), and polygamy:
“Firstly, in Islam we should consider there are reasons, ways and aims of Islamic orders and advices. Ways(methods, practices) of doing Islamic orders are fluctuant I mean they change according conditions of its time, valid in its time. But aim is universal and valid for all ages, forever. As to methods, because we live in industrialized 21. Century that makes easy our works thank to machine power, some ways(methods) of year 1400 sounds weird for us, so we can focus on aim.
Because Islam or Quran is(has to) flexible to adress groups from all walks of society(and society of all times) you can see scale, boundary, dosages that Islam limits. And need to be rational; from pre-industrial age(agri culture age) to industrial age, from peasants and uneducated to civilized educated people. Lets remember background knowledge of pre industrial age, conditions of that time:in pre-industrial age people were more tough and human-muscle power was very very important for production(agriculture, building, houseworks), war(soldiers) etc.. And reaching sources and using them was more difficult, (today it is more easy to build jail, get and prepare food even for jails for example.) To get more power every opportunities were used… So firstly we should think these conditions (requiring human power because of lack of machine power) for living for men and women, for free people and for war captives. Because of this reasons/conditions, instead of jailing war captives in four walls and build jails for them, they are worked as (cook)chef, farm worker, houseworks, clerk etc. and their(war captives) food, sheltering, clothing needs are were supplied without jailing them four walls. Working war captives(also known as slavery) were common all over the world even before Islam and after.
So lets make clear war captive issues:
There were 4 possibilities about war captives 1400 years ago all around world
1)Releasing all war captives
2)Killing all war captives
3)Jailing all war captives in four walls as life imprisonment
4) interchanging some of war captives, making work some of war captives(aka slavery)
Lets observe: 1)When release ALL war captives there would not be deterrence. If you say «Release but do not allow to go enemy land?» what is your easy solution for risk of ciwil war, spy, provokers etc.?(electronic shackles etc. have not inevented yet..) In that era even non muslims do not (&did not) accept this method because it was not appropriate as strategy for deterrence.
2)»Killing all war captives» It is not ethic or conscientious.
3)» Jailing all war captives in four walls as life imprisonment» At that era, it was difficult to build structures so prisons, there were no technology, technologic construction equipment. And bearing the expense were not easy again because of same reasons… Imagine that era and its conditions
. 4) interchanging some of war captives, or making work some of war captives(aka slavery) , which also Islam did like other countries of Abrahamic religions and most of other civilisations. Firstly, Islam used war captives (slaves) to rescue Muslims war captives, also other war captives were rescued. Secondly Islam released war captives in exchange for teaching how to read and write like in Battle of Badr. Thirdly, for deterence make war captives work(slavery) as war strategy, and because of limitation of facilities. «So whoever has assaulted you, then assault him IN THE SAME WAY THAT HE HAS ASSAULTED YOU.» Quran 2:194 Slavery was common a strategy all around the world at that time, but Islam set moral laws, legal characteristic and PROMOTED SETTING SLAVES FREE. According to these laws: Slave owner can not torture his/her slave, he/she have to give food what he/she eat, have to give clothes what he/she wear etc. These are legal obligations. The verses about slavery in Quran are about treating polite slaves or setting them free. Contrary to popular belief Islam did not like, order or did not promote slavery, just in regard to periodical conditions Islam permit it with conditions. «Order» and «permission» are different concepts. BUT ISLAM PROMOTE SETTING FREE SLAVES.
It is valid for polygamy. Because of same conditions mentioned above (and also involves, there were not security cameras etc.), there were job sharing & cooperation between genders in security too; muscular male gender was guard of a woman, when he is husband (or responsible for a female war captive).
On the other side,
“Sociological issues are about conditions of its time, generally. In pre-industrial age people were more tough and human-muscle power was very important for production, war(soldiers) etc.. Imagine for 1 meter fabric you need more people than one human (but in industrial age it is enough one person who pushes the button of the machine in the factory. Or imagine wars, the more soldiers mean the more power for defense because there is no tanks,guns, etc.) So for example, to get more power (this power means more human especially men(because they are stronger, have muscles etc.) men married women than one. Because 1 man with more than one women can produce more power (human)=economic, but one woman with more than one man was useless for power(human). To produce more agriculture, fabric etc. need crowd population. Even after a war-genocide to rise the population, one man and many women combination is the best. But in industrial age with the machine power, some things have been changed. Population growth has become unimportant(even become burden..) so with this condition, polygamy has become unimportant at last era. But Islam says limit is 4 wifes but advice is ONE.(“But if you fear that you will not be just-fair, then [marry only] ONE or those your right hand possesses. That is MORE SUITABLE that you may not incline [to injustice].” Quran) So in agriculture age 4 wife limit can be permissible but in industrial age advice of one is more feasible…
It is same for slaves, time and conditions created its norms, because of human power necessity, people preferred to use war captives for production instead of jailing in four walls. But today no need human power anymore because of machines, machines are alternative. Without recommending alternative it is very hard to banning instantly something that in public use. Even in recent history some countries used human power/slaves in colonial way before machines.
Because of this, Islam strongly promoted setting free slaves rather than instant banning, and advised behaving good and polite manner to slaves, made statute law for written documents, so slaves could use these written documents in courts, health issues.”

Bir şey rica edebilir miyim? “Life is a dream” adlı yazıyla, yorumlardaki herhangi bir yazının yerini değiştirseniz olur mu? Çünkü bir sitede Sufizmle ve İslamla ilgili gerçekten samimi soru soran bir kaç kişi gördüm yorum yazdım link verdim burayı, normalde diğer üyeler de link vermesine rağmen ben “ban”lendim, şu “Illuminating with drugs is a “Dark Side” method. In this way you lose both the world, your afterlife, and your health. It is Devil work/way.” cümlesinden dolayı ilk yazıdan ön yargı oluşuyor galiba. Yorum kısmında olsa sanki link olarak filan inş. daha önü açık olur gibi geliyor bana. Tabi yine siz nasıl uygun görürseniz.

Birilerinin beğenisine göre hakikatları çarpıtamayız. Tasavvuf ehline kaypaklık caiz değildir. Kabul etmeyen etmesin; sonuçlarına kendileri katlanırlar.

Once upon a time, I did yoga and I was drinking some drinks for open to third eye. I was very anxious, unhappy in this time. Then, I lived strange things. For example, despite my home was empty, unexpectedly I was hearing scary steps in my home. After I left yoga and I started to perform salaat(namaz). At the same time I met with Rumi’s Masnawi. I was reading to Masnawi, concentratedly. My life and my dreams changed very much. Of course, I comment to my life/past/future with positive perspective… Hereafter I was feeling peaceful. This event is my life’s turning point…
