Meditation, opening inner eyes, muraqabah, dhzikr
Most people choose the easy way. Not just the easy in the physical sense, but the things that are easier for their brain to accept. They believe in tales, even if those remove them from reality, the elements of which give them peace of mind.
There is only enough knowledge in their brain to which these elements can be attached. Anyone, who is unable to get rid of the weaknesses and limitations of his/her own consciousness, creates a world full of disappointments that collapses and will be buried under it.
It's not only you who lock yourself into your human shape, but there are thousands of others who do the same in order to rule over you. To be locked in "human shape" means that you are surrounded by boundaries and you can be considered as human only within these. Yes, but who sets up these boundaries? Take a good look around. Whoever does it to you, does not do for you, but for him/herself. Because no one should make you perceive your boundaries, but on the contrary they have to open for you your unlimited possibilities. If you punish and beat your child up in order to squeeze him/her into your limits, you will produce an inhibited, mentally ill mind. If you open up the infinite space for your child, even his/her questions will also get into this infinity and becomes an explorer, a discoverer of the world, which in itself brings delight to his/her life. If God has given us humans the most potential of all creatures, then what is our duty? Is it to limit these opportunities or opening them up?
Well, dear priests and sheikhs! You really messed it up! Whenever anyone declares that " because we are human," he never does so to open us up, but to get stuck somewhere. Then they guide us to narrower spaces and continue to say: "because we are Christians", "because we are Muslims", “because we are socialists”, "because we are democrats" and the process does not stop until we reach to the extremes: "because we are cyclists", "because we are alpinists" and so on. The word Muslim was also heard. Yes, it is Haram! Haram to refer to this! According to the Quran, a Muslim is a MAN who intends to discover the creation and infinity of God, who despite all the tyrannous oppression must break out of the block of his/her own and others' brains into the freedom of the Universe and to follow the rules of it. These rules must be discovered by him/herself, of one's own free will! This is called Muslim! This is not a religion in the European sense, nor the distorted bullshit introduced by some Arabs, Persians, Turks or anyone else today! And it is not the sort of horror existing in the mind of Hungarians or other peoples as they consider it based on present communications! Islam is the Quran! And not the many nonsensical sets of rules people proclaim from the pulpit! And the Quran cannot be read hastily or run through, no one can state that he/she have read it and Quran says this and that! Because every time you open it up, the message will be always different! I'm not talking about the doctrines, but the message! Provided it is read with sharp brain and not just with empty pretending.
Look at your hand. You see five fingers that you can use to hold objects, lift weights. If someone comes and cuts your fingers off, can you do the same? Whether with your brain is not done the same? While you are existing within these artificial boundaries, you can never be happy! What you feel as happiness is not human, but zombie happiness, which means that those who rule over you make you believe to feel something under the heading of happiness! What is the solution? You should see reality and not a promised attainable imagination. The latter one is usually a scam. To see the truth, use your own eyes, not the eyes of others, and process reality with your own brain, not with the brains of others. And stretch the limits of your brain as much as you can! Learn! Consulting others will help, but don't get trapped! Because, it is only through your perception that God allows you to see a world that is good for you where you are at home! Embrace new knowledge and dismantle the walls that have been planted within you by your forefathers during a thousand years.
You're not here to get stuck at an age, but to move forward! This is true even if sacrilege is mentioned. God does not ask for the name of your religion, nor which football team you support. God Himself is not Muslim or Catholic, and He is not supporting Barcelona team. As long as you do not discover yourself, your abilities, what's programmed in you, it's hard to see the contexts in the outside world. Do you see now why you have to step aside and be yourself with the Lord five or more times a day? Can you see that this is not a stereotypical act that perhaps will be called a "medical case" by modern psychology after one or two years’ time? Muslims call the state what we attain in the deepest silence (al-samt) an isolation: "muraqabah", which means spiritual mindfulness. In other words, spiritual control over physical existence. It is also a memory or remembrance (dhzikr). This is the time when we remove the wastes and burdens that has accumulated on us. This is a liberating spiritual practice in the proximity of God. It creates stillness (sakinah) that opens the heart vision (basirah) what can penetrate the human, artificial spaces and allows to see the reality of the universe. In the long run, this practice results a spiritual refinement of the senses (Tadjrid). Many attributes it as Sufi teaching, where there are many schools for these spiritual practices. I wouldn't open the chapter of schools in order not to be entangled in one trend of another sort of extreme, which is the extreme of spirituality. At this point, it is up to the individual to decide and determine the best practice which serves his/her earthly existence.
Is then one who doth know that that which hath been revealed unto thee from thy Lord is the Truth, like one who is blind? It is those who are endued with understanding that receive admonition;- (Quran 13:19)
Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Those in seclusion have raced ahead.” They said, “O Messenger of Allah, who are those in seclusion?” The Prophet said, “They are men and women who remember Allah often.” In another narration, the Prophet said, “They are those absorbed in the remembrance of Allah.”
