Ah! I loved watching Jodha Akbar,
so much to say. may be will update this post later.
I loved this citation about the winning,
when the Queen ask to his Husband how he is so sure about it,
and He answered :
car notre dieu aura gagné votre coeur ! Akbar
For our God would have won your Heart
this definitely is a Great (Akbar) God lol!
The One that wins heart, hence the greatness.
and it is all the more great to hear that,
when you know the Queen Jodha is from another religion (Hinduism)
and the King Akbar is Muslim.
as it was the Queen intial challenge that Akbar manage to win her heart,
her people's heart
when he attributes the winning to his God
that is all the more in line with her request
while defeating the competition of both religions
for it is a winning detached from human use of (greedy) power
for it is a winning that unified both people
not dividing them one above the other.
hence you see
that divine greatness lies in winning people's heart.
too cool a movie!

Ah i need to buy fencing stuff so that i may resume it, has been two years that i practised not :)
i need to be ready to knock down my husband to be hehehe ;)
The thoughts depicted in `Attar's works reflects the whole evolution of the Sufi movement. The starting point is the idea that the body-bound soul's awaited release and return to its source in the other world can be experienced during the present life in mystic union attainable through inward purification.[9] In explaining his thoughts, 'Attar uses material not only from specifically Sufi sources but also from older ascetic legacies. Although his heroes are for the most part Sufis and ascetics, he also introduces stories from historical chronicles, collections of anecdotes, and all types of high-esteemed literature.[2] His talent for perception of deeper meanings behind outward appearances enables him to turn details of everyday life into illustrations of his thoughts. source : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attar_of_Nishapur Attar's work :
Led by the hoopoe, the birds of the world set forth in search of their king, Simurgh. Their quest takes them through seven valleys :
In the first of which a hundred difficulties assail them. They undergo many trials as they try to free themselves of what is precious to them and change their state. Once successful and filled with longing, they ask for wine to dull the effects of dogma, belief, and unbelief on their lives.
In the second valley, the birds give up reason for love and, with a thousand hearts to sacrifice, continue their quest for discovering the Simurgh.
The third valley confounds the birds, especially when they discover that their worldly knowledge has become completely useless and their understanding has become ambivalent. There are different ways of crossing this Valley, and all birds do not fly alike. Understanding can be arrived at variously—some have found the Mihrab, others the idol.
The fourth valley is introduced as the valley of detachment, i.e., detachment from desire to possess and the wish to discover. The birds begin to feel that they have become part of a universe that is detached from their physical recognizable reality. In their new world, the planets are as minute as sparks of dust and elephants are not distinguishable from ants.
It is not until they enter the fifth valley that they realize that unity and multiplicity are the same. And as they have become entities in a vacuum with no sense of eternity. More importantly, they realize that God is beyond unity, multiplicity, and eternity.
Stepping into the sixth valley, the birds become astonished at the beauty of the Beloved. Experiencing extreme sadness and dejection, they feel that they know nothing, understand nothing. They are not even aware of themselves.
Only thirty birds reach the abode of the Simurgh. But there is no Simurgh anywhere to see. Simurgh's chamberlain keeps them waiting for Simurgh long enough for the birds to figure out that they themselves are the si (thirty) murgh (bird).
The seventh valley is the valley of deprivation, forgetfulness, dumbness, deafness, and death. The present and future lives of the thirty successful birds become shadows chased by the celestial Sun. And themselves, lost in the Sea of His existence, are the Simurgh.[19]
[edit]The Seven Valleys of spirituality(conference of the birds)
Attar has described the seven stages of spirituality in the conference of the birds:
as i was looking at the keyboard
it felt light was coming out of it
then on the spot i realised
it is not light coming out of the present keyboard itself
but it was because i was in the present
meaning that
i was not identifying myself in that very present moment
with any other thing than the Present itself
thus the Present itself
is Pure Light
for if i was identifying myself with some
past or future thoughts
then de facto i would not have been present
yet, what is the Present?
if not that which is Eternal
i.e. in the manifestation (outward/out of ourselves world that one can see with our eyes)
the Light itself.
for in the Present
inside we are One with our Light
and its projection
meaning what we can see in our outside world in that very moment
is also reflecting this light
while wearing different form.
so it is not the light coming out of the stuff around me in the present
but it is only my own inner light
that i could see outside of me
for the outside is only the inside but wearing/experimenting varieties of other forms.
because i knew not what is Truth
i knew not how could i trust
with a spontaneous awakening
and feeling of cool breeze
stemming from inside
i knew it was not controlled
from outside
therefore
it was mine
uncontrolled
neither by someone nor by my ego
but i wanted more
a new change
for Truth brings change
because if you don't change for the better
than you stay in same situation in your life
not evolving
and turning in circle
with the same "issues"
more or less worsening
so i learned it was about taking charge of one's own life
the cool breeze is the manifestation
that the inner divine energy
pushes upwards
at heart level take the spirit
and bring it upwards
above head
above thoughts
and thus liberates you from your bonding
of identification with your own thoughts
above thoughts
is pure silence
once liberated
we have space
space to create what we wish for
therefore each person should seek for what
his or her pure desire it
to allow it to be manifested
the more more thoughtless awareness
the more silence
the more silence, the more emptiness
and when ONE thought with ONE emotion
is placed in this shrine of silence
encircled by emptiness
then this ONE thought
becomes empowered
and is manifested
for power before
ALSO existed
but used to be divided by different thoughts
when divided so much, quota of power per thought is weak
but one thought one power
is a powerful condition for your desire to become real
thus you are your own master
at last free to experience what you wish
which is no more illusive daily striving.
but if you trust not
this spirit inside
which is the container of the Pure Love
then you cannot gamble your Life
for a new change
for letting it take a new turn
and become first
transformed by Love
and then, become itself Love
once it is Love
it is actually a level of manifesation of this Pure Awareness/Silence the spirit is brought in
for in vibration
Peace is above Love
and i guess above Peace
are new levels
for Face of God
shines ever day into a NEW splendor
as there is NO limit to GOD
but if one takes not this turn for Pure Love in life
then, there is no more space
for the Pure Desire for Love
to transform us
and as God forces not
one has no more natural ground to live
for Pure Desire cannot be removed.
This is why
no conditioning
even be it the apparent ultimatum of Quran given by ignorant people
see the scene :
As the battle continued, Malik al-Ashtar fought his way through the
opposing army until he was two rows away from Mu'awiyah's tent.[5][7]
Only two rows away from killing Mu'awiyah and ending the war. However, a
situation occurred. Mu'awiyah wanted to trick Imam Ali's army to stop
fighting and disunite them by creating confusion. So he asked Amr ibn
al-As, who told him, "I'm sure we can cheat them with the Qur'an."[8] Mu'awiyah loved the idea and ordered his soldiers to place the Quran on their spear.[4][5]
When most of the soldiers of Imam Ali saw this they stopped fighting.
Though Imam Ali knew that it was a trick by Mu'awiyah to create
confusion and disunity, he told his army "It's a trick! I was the first
to invite them to Allah's Book. And I was the first to believe in it.
They've disobeyed Allah and broken His promise." (this is referring to
the negotiation/persuading process before the war)[5]
Imam Ali wanted his soldier to continue fighting because they were so
close to victory. Despite Imam Ali's effort, 22,000 soldiers of Imam Ali
disobeyed his commands and said "Stop fighting and order al-Ashtar to
withdraw!"[5]
Knowing that his own soldiers had turned their backs on him and a few
group of true believers, Imam Ali Ibn Abi Talib told his soldiers to
command Malik to return for safety reasons.[4]
The messenger gave Malik the order. Even though, Malik knew that he has
the opportunity to end the war and rid the world of Ma'uwiyah, he
stopped and returned.[4][5] Malik said "If Ali ibn Abi Talib orders something, I have to return".[7] This moment was a defining moment in Malik's life because it shows his discipline and submission to Imam Ali Ibn Abi Talib.
Quran ties people in fear - that's a trick
Quran cannot be understood by mind, but by heart.
while Truth is Spiritual and ever preached,
few can hear it,
to be led to Victory
nor the outwards play of power can deter the Truthful people :
see the scene :
Their enmity and open threats of a breach between Abu Talib's clan, the Banu Hashim and the rest of the Banu Quraish
distressed Abu Talib who was aware of the cost that his nephew Muhammad
had to pay if deserted . Abu Talib sent for Muhammad and told him the
news, "Spare me and yourself and put not burden on me that I can’t bear". Muhammad thought that his uncle would let him down and would no longer support him, so he replied:
"O my uncle! by God if they put the sun in my right hand and the moon in my left on
condition that I abandon this course, until God has made me victorious,
or I perish therein, I would not abandon it." Muhammad got up, and as he turned away, his uncle called back and then said "Go and preach what you please, for by God I will never forsake you.". Abu Talib then recited two lines of verse with meanings of full support to Muhammad.
Moon is the Left channel in our subtle system in our body
Sun is the Right channel
even if ALL kinds of Power of BOTH channels were given to Muhammad (peace be upon him)
he would have NEVER abandon Truth, which is in the CENTRAL CHANNEL, the Middle Path (ehdina sirah tal mustaqim = the straight path) for any other manifestation of power.
He stood his Ground.
for ONLY the middle channel opening leads to Victory.
and Victory is in Surah Fatah ( Chapter of Victory) in quran,
Fatah, with the sound Fa, means the Opening ,
like the opening of a seed
or like in surah Falak (the day break)
the cleaving of the seed which leads to see the light
and this cleaving is that of your Inner Energy
which pierces your fontanel area
and brings you to Light
while before you were closed into an egg/seed/ darkness
nor could ever make a true seeker of Truth waver
see the scene.
Heart being capable of All Form of love
is not a poetic moving wish of ibn Arabi
it is LITERALLY the HAPPENING
THE VICTORY talked of above
for it is when the Kundalini takes your spirit
Above your thoughts
thoughts are mental FORMS
and once your are ABOVE those mental forms
you are in the PURE AWARENESS which is the ONLY state
where your Heart can be capable of ALL forms of LOVE.
for Love is the Meaning of Life
and without Love Life is no naturally no more.
so unless you already know what you desire
and that desire be your DRIVE
and unless you test your belief
to see if this belief feeds you and quench your thirst
for Life, Love, God
you will never find Certainty.
For finding ever fresh and renewed Life
is finding God
finding this constant Pure Love in continuous way
is finding God
and finding God
is finding Certainty
Finding Love is finding Certainty.
For the Constant Presence of Love felt on your path, is the Proof of you having found God inside you.
it is the proof of you being finally fed by your Pure Desire.
Therefore, your life will naturally flow and go on.
for God is not outside
it is the REAL YOU inside
the HU (arabic meaning WHO HE IS)
and the real Eternal Life in you
is the SPIRIT
whose manifestation at heart level is LOVE
and above thought is PEACE
even the word Reality is not really true, real i.e. rightly understood by us
i never was religious from the beginning,
but spiritual
by then i had no clue that even the word spiritual existed
i only knew that i liked to discover inner beauties
as if i was literally uncovering lid fro a can
so when i went on an islamic forum
and saw so much division
that hit me
for i never thought that division in what is called the last and completed religion existed
so i declared by then,
that God does not takes side even if it is called islam
but protects Truth
this i was innerly sure of,
it was a sure shot
innerly i felt disconnected with the inner touch
when i met a sort of muslim teacher
who was so much more in touch with quran
that i wanted to follow the quranic teaching
but the thing is
people knows more the letter of it
than the spirit of it
from that time i lost touch with my inner self
and that used to be soft
once i tried to be "honest"
i felt it was impossible to practice religion
and i felt my heart became hard
somehow i met a sufi group
so that was the spirituality i was always attracted with
that time was really particular
for i was so much in touch with my inner world of dreams and visions
this was a total mind blowing experience
for it opened a door to perception
to right perception on some regards
and that is :
hell and heaven exist
right now
as said in the Constantine movie :
John Constantine: But
when you cross over time stops. Take it from me, two minutes in hell is
a lifetime. When I came back I knew all the things I could see were
real. Heaven and hell are right here. Behind every wall, every window.
The world behind the world, and we're smack in the middle.
watching this movie when i heard Heaven and Hell are right here
it reminded me my own dreams and visions in that period of my life
the new breakthrough by then in my life was to really understand that Heaven and Hell are NOW and NOT later, not once we are dead we go to heaven and hell i can related to the muslims reading that for each single counter truth i may seem to say because i went through them all it can be proven by simple logic in hadith is it not said the way we die is the way we are raised up? if we die as a believer we are raised as such in heaven if we die as a disbeliever we are raised as such in hell because our last moment is NOT a moment OUT of Time it is NOT to come it is ALREADY there! by the very choices we do in the now and then we choose either to take the PATH leading to heaven or the PATH leading to hell and the PATH itself is heaven if we die on it or the path itself is hell if we die on it as in the hadith of the guy who chose to show abnegation to God to be forgiven after having killed so many people he died while travelling to a saint place and while he was half way between the heaven and hellish place angels of both sides fought to know who shall get his soul and finally due to his INTENTION set God shortened the path to heaven for him thus he was counted among the heavenly ones so it is true each of our decisions and choices BUILD up to our heaven or hell and NOT as to COME but as IS. heaven and hell are ON THE SPOT it is NEVER after the word HEREAFTER - Akheera means MORE than the english image of hereafter we misunderstand it as AFTER the NOW just by browsing on net one can already find this :
f. akrabajamaa , utani % ukoo.}
Ahora. n. and Akhera, Aheri,
(i) that \vhuh is last (or behind,
or beyond), the end, the last stage;
(a) cs'i world, fun
Akheera with the meaning of LAST, as in LAST stage , that which is BEHIND or BEYOND the seen
like in the prayer of the Prophet :
Allah shows me things as they REALLY ARE.
it is because by then in his time
people went out of sheer period of ignorance
hardly learning that one should should not stone to death baby girls
so how could, except for a few, on a mass scale, higher level consciousness be taught to
people who were so much LOW in their mind
by the way, this is why the prophet said in his last sermon
report my worlds to next generation
for they may understand more/better.
!
it is about understanding more deeply WHEN you ASCEND as SOUL
and your consciousness is raised from lower to HIGHER worlds of understanding!
another word for low is the root word of Dunia
muslims takes too narrow mindedly the meaning of dunia
i know because i went through it
dunia is seen as the life on this earth
that one should shun
so that one reap all for the akeehra in the after life after death
but dunia is NOT this world
dunia is the LOWER part of this world/time
how can time be LOW
when this very time can be your savior?
Daani', which literally something which is low, lowly, insignificant,
something of inferior value
source : islamhelpline.net
so the lower aspect of this life,
in another word, lower consciousness is this dunia
but if you ASCEND, i.e. do the Miraaj as the prophet did,
as you are supposed to work for it in ramadan
then, you can LIVE in this world without being part of the dunia
this is why in a hadith
it was said of a man who came with his ablution water dripping from his face
that he is from the people of heaven (prophet saying)
while other companions of prophets
tried to see lol by stalking him all day long or week long what he did for that
what extra prayer he did
and finally as they found not
they asked him please tell us
and he said
i do nothing
except that i forgive those who hurt me
and how could he be SEEN as HE REALLY IS ON THE SPOT
as a person of heaven?
because heaven was HIS STATE in the NOW
and how he went to heaven ?
by forgiving constantly
so,
when keanu reeves said :
hen I came back I knew all the things I could see were
real. Heaven and hell are right here. Behind every wall, every window.
The world behind the world, and we're smack in the middle.
that is all true!
by then,
when i used to see heavenly like pictures
because i was more in a temporary state of goodness
i used to be so happy
as if i was in another world though living in this one
but when i had constrained myself by attaching myself to
self reproach, guilt and sorrow
i saw literally speaking hell
felt it
and when i used to got up from these nightmares
i could still feel scorch on the skin, if i had been hurt during it.
it is ONLY because of the awakening of the cool breeze
that i started to learn to LET GO and FORGIVE myself.
our own body will become heaven or hell
by the way we choose to address ourselves
yes the way we address others is the way we address ourselves ON THE SPOT
it is not a far off connection
for i learned a few weeks ago
that if i hit my foot
the nerves got shocked and the hurt ascended up the spine!
therefore back got hurt! though there is no apparent link between a foot and back hurt!
and i understood
1-the meaning of resonating - we, being a resonator
2-the meaning of extending limbs
such as
if foot hurt lead me to accumulated in my spine, nervous system the hurt felt
then what about my hands when they give hurt to someone else?
it means , that me too i accumulated inside of me ON THE SPOT the hurt i am sending out
by extension i am the Beauty i recognise and give to others
and the hellfire that i nourish in acting so towards others and thus myself.
it is the FIRST time i REALLY lived the experience of
the OTHER as YOURSELF
by the way :)
did you know that Keanu (Reeves) means in Hawaii language "the cool breeze over the Mountain"!:)
the thing with bad mood
is that you WANT TO STAY WITH IT
as looooooooooooooong as it takes
and then, had i had my fiancé in front of me
i would have smashed his head
lol
hehehe
so,
having a bad mood is OK
actually it is important to avoid it
however..is also important to see,,who is watching the bad mood,,?..
is the witness is the arising and passing away..of mental citta factors (citta = is our attention, the mental + emotional sides)
if you do NOT do it on the spot..you CAN get stuck on bad citta
this is WHY i was SO MUCH ENGROSSED in that BAD MOOD that i did not want to calm down for i had taken it as MY ID by then, so much i identified myself with it
and why it was so? because i refused to meditate..while in the BAD mood..to ,,see,, the mood
so meditation ON THE SPOT allow us to SEE ourselves, here to see my bad mood
but true, who wants to SEE that which is bad? i prefer on the spot to have a fighting character a real bad one instead of seeing it passing
which means preferring to identify more and more with it by allowing time to pass like that instead of seeing it passing!
that is so stupid of me hopefully next time i will raise my energy ON THE SPOT to SEE the state of emotions i am IN so that it JUST be a PASSING thing as it was MEANT TO BE and NOT something sticky lol
ah that was beautiful and glorious i saw the spirit raising like a huge flame and it raised in front of shri mataji who was next to me
and he raised so that she too recognises its grandeur as she did, she bowed to it
i liked that
that was truly real scene for the word Glory
now somehow i will do what i can, to get this too
i have to , because this kind of glory i have never seen it in daily life i just wish dream does not faint in my mind otherwise i forget my drive out of boredom at times
(why? cf next post)
it was beautiful
because when i look at it again first, nothing else existed in the attention except
only this great and i don t know for what reason, beautiful flame it was, rising
third it was really powerful and especially superior on its own
and when i look back at it , there is no question rising or doubts if it was good or not and to what limit
Have ever heard of people playing a role?
or again that life is like a drama, role play?
i JUST understood today its REAL meaning! :)
feel SOO content and fulfilled :)
yes findings like these are bread like to me,
well rather sweet than bread lol
it functions like this..you do to other what you would WANT to yourself,but you're
afraid to do/experience this by doing this to yourself
so.... the human being found a way!
that is projection !
PROJECTION !!!
"we think of the other the way we think of ourselves"
here is a little story,
at midnight a pious person was coming out of a church/mosque/ saint place
and he met a guy in the street
his first though, "oh the great guy, he is so diligently working out himself to keep vigil at night in prayer."
and when this other guy met the pious one,
he said to himself with a malicious face " ah, this guy playing the pious but in truth no better than me,
sneaking out at night to go to discotheque"
LOL
when i heard this
i laughed a lot
and it was a revelation,
it means we think of the others, the way we think of ourselves.
same about the rest of our life
we are wholly experiencing ourselves at all time
by doing unto the other what we are afraid to do/admit to ourselves of our inner/hidden desires/personality.
why afraid?
for we have a logical mind which is afraid for it can't manage to control the inner deep power of his inner desire.
it knows that it is SO STRONG that it will defies its logic.
thus this BLOCK
which is too traumatising to self experience (i.e. being experienced by the consciousness)
will be soften by being projected i.e. being experienced TOWARDS the other!
BY PASS way to experience it
so our subconscious is projecting on the other
to know itself
by passing the block between the logical brain and the inner desires of the individual
THUS
THIS IS HOW WE PROJECT OUTSIDE
THAT WHICH IS INSIDE OF US!
why the need for this self experience?
ah, suddenly it becomes clear, isn't it?
SELF experience
before i could not get what SELF experience
it is the subconscious trying to know itself
while the conscious, as the name point at is CONSCIOUS of this EXPERIENCE
knowing how it works..automatically makes the ,,inner,, being
understood
and the block was about
lack of communication between mind/soul/spirit..etc orin other word
the
conscious vs the subconscious reality
third, this projection creates a
,,connection,, between the conscious and subconscious - mind and soul?
this connection is a medium to communicate between both. CONCLUSION :
so we always,,project,, the inner ,,outside,,..to ,,see
ourselves,,
so the pious guy wanted to see his own piousness to see what his piousness looked like :)
and the disco guy wanted to see what his depraved life looked like lol true a mirror cannot see itself it NEEDS a second person to be able to see HOW it reflects WELL! so far so good BUT when our attention FORGETS THAT! (man forgets, so use remembrance - quran/islam) when it forgets the rule of the game : to know yourself, to experience your self as a mirror would want too
and starts thinking that it is the beauty of the other i want to possess (one of the 10 commandments not to transgress -judaism) or the ugliness of the other that i want to wipe off ( do not judge or you will be judged - christianity)
then it is HOW our attention got corrupted and we forget WHO we are.
see ? all of the religious teachings AIM at bringing man back to : THE PURE BLISSFUL AWARENESS OF THE PRESENT MOMENT BEING EXPERIENCED - dedicating this clarity of revelation to my husband to be :) kiss to you ; ) and HUGE love -petals
I had to imagine what it would be like having back blocked
and not being able to walk
guess what?!
it is what happened,
ah, if i am so good at imagining
i better imagine next time GREAT LOVELY things
happening to me
;) well i did
delicious ones lol
so,
i know they will happen :)
yes, so in the morning,
when i got up
my back was blocked
and i had much pain, going from the back to the right leg
so i raised the energy
and put hands on the main chakras
doing thus a cycle
and then,
when it started to feel cool
i stayed with this feeling
as long as this coolness spread in the body
of course,
i put first my attention on the area of the pain
for once the attention is in the cool breeze
then WHERE we direct the attention, the energy follows
thus when i directed my attention on the painful area
the attention was like a laser
or like the concentrated rays of sun
that remove the dark clouds
so the realised attention EMPTIES the area where it is directed
and then the pain disappears!
because the body is the densified extensions of our immaterial thoughts
so if cool breeze can provoke a state of thoughtless awareness
THAN
on the manifestation realm/concrete physical space
the cool breeze WILL ALSO provoke THIS emptiness
so here the thoughts materialised (my projection of experiencing this blocked back)
have been wiped off by the attention loaded with this cool breeze

English translation:
I wait quietly behind you Really want to see your accidental smile Maybe you do not understand my heart But I will try my hardest to touch your heart
I'm the clumsy one in your eyes I will not give up following you I just need you to give me some response I will accept a smile or a nod
Can I come a little closer Confess my feelings out to you loudly Don't shut yourself in your own world anymore The warm sun welcomes you
Can I come a little closer Can I become braver a little bit Even if I know that it will always be a one-sided love affair I will still keep my gratitude Smiling to you and saying goodbye.
somehow i will do what i can, to get this too
