from my book Illuminated Prayer
God is a Power
The power becomes the light
The light becomes vibration
The vibration becomes sound
The sound becomes word
The word becomes language
The language becomes scripture
"excerpt from the Holy Quran"
" Surah Al Lail "The Night,"
1: Just take a look at the universe and it will appear to be a collection of opposites. For example on one side is the night which covers everything in darkness.
2: And on the other side is the day which brightens everything by its light.
3: Among living beings, males are created along with females whose physical functions are different.
4: This diversity is for the distribution of functions (labour). (Due to this distribution, the aims of your endeavors in social life are different. This is how the system functions so smoothly.
If you consider that this distribution of labour divides humanity into schisms, one having no connection with the other, then this is a misconception. If you superficially look at day and night, or the distribution between men and women, you will find that each one of them appears to be different from the other. However, if you look more closely, you will notice that both are linked with each other. They are branches of the same origin as well as facets of the same fact. Inspite of this distribution of labour, human beings are an indivisible unit.
Like that

En noviembre del 2005 escribí un mensaje que, en cierto modo, está relacionado con éste que has posteado, mi querida amiga… lo titulé Genesis I – 32Y por eso, porque creo que está relacionado, y para dar una visión hebraica del tema que has tratado, es por lo que lo traigo a tu blog como comentario mío a tu mensaje. Espero que esto no te moleste y que sea de tu agrado.(In November of the 2005 I wrote a message that, in certain way, it is related with this that you have written, my dear friend… I titled it Genesis I – 32 And for that reason, because I believe that it is related, and to give a Hebraic vision of the topic that you have tried, it is for what I bring it to your blog like my comment to your message.

Mi único deseo es que seas feliz en tu país, en tu casa, en tu vida personal y laboral, feliz en tu vida familiar, que estés llena de vida y salud y que tengas aún mucho tiempo frente a ti para recoger todas las maravillas que el mundo tiene aún por ofrecerte… éste es mi deseo y, según tus palabras, es mi orden… así pues, mi querida Fatimah, estás obligada a ser feliz, pues el día que no lo seas, ese día estarás rompiendo este compromiso de hacer de mi deseo una orden 🙂 Sobre el hombre y la mujer en la visión religiosa, voy a comentarte algo que quizás desconozcas. Antiguamente, cuando el cristianismo estaba aún en sus primeros años, había una corriente de pensamiento antigua, derivada de la civilización egipcia (que entonces estaba en pleno declive), que podríamos calificar de gnóstica – hermetista. Los Hermetistas pensaban que Dios, el Creador del Universo, Demiurgo le llamaban, tenía los dos sexos, es decir, que era Hermafrodita (de los dioses griegos Hermes y Afrodita)… es decir, pensaban que la naturaleza divina era masculina y femenina, sin distinción alguna entre ambas. Y pensaban que la Humanidad había sido creada a imagen y semejanza del Demiurgo, del Dios Hermafrodita… sólo que, en la Humanidad (y demás seres creados), el Creador los diferenció dentro de su misma especie (géneros masculino y femenino). Es por esto que, aquellos antiguos, creían que el Hombre Arquetipo sólo era alcanzable cuando las dos naturalezas, la masculina (hombre) y la femenina (mujer), se unían. Hombre y Mujer eran exactamente iguales y tenían las mismas virtudes y capacidades, pero sólo en la unión de sus naturalezas podían alcanzar la realización del Hombre completo (macho y hembra a la vez)… así es cómo aquellos hombres y mujeres creían, firmemente, que en la unión espiritual (amor) y carnal (sexo) y sus éxtasis correspondientes es cuando eran, como personas, más semejantes al Dios Creador… y en esta comunión con el Creador, es cuando se producía el milagro: se generaba una nueva vida… My only desire is that you are happy in your country, in your house, in your personal and labor life, happy in your family life that you are full with life and health and that you have even a lot of time in front of you to pick up all the marvels that the world still has to offer… this is my desire and, according to your words, it is my order… therefore, my dear Fatimah, you are forced to be happy, because the day that you are not it, that day you will be breaking this commitment of making of my desire an order:) On the man and the woman in the religious vision, I will comment you something that maybe ignore. Formerly, when the Christianity was still in its first years, there was an old thought current, derived of the Egyptian civilization (that then in the middle of decline was) that could qualify of Gnostic – hermetista. The Hermetistas thought that God, the Creator of the Universe, Demiurgo called him, he/she had the two sexes, that is to say that was Hermaphrodite (of the Greek gods Hermes and Aphrodite)… that is to say, they thought that the divine nature was masculine and feminine, without distinction some among both. And they thought that the Humanity had been created to image and likeness of the Demiurgo, of the Hermaphrodite God… only, in the Humanity (and other created beings), the Creator differentiated them inside his same species (masculine and feminine goods). it is for this reason that, those old ones, believed that the Man Archetype was only possible when the two natures, the masculine one (man) and the feminine one (woman), they united. Man and Woman were exactly same and they had the same virtues and capacities, but only in the union of their natures they could reach the complete Man’s realization (male and female at the same time)… it is this way how those men and women believed, firmly that in the spiritual union (love) and carnal (sex) and their corresponding ecstasies are when they were, as people, more similar to the Creative God… and in this communion with the Creator, it is when the miracle took place: a new life was generated…Un beso.:)
YOUR WORDS…”My only desire is that you are happy in your country, in your house, in your personal and labor life, happy in your family life that you are full with life and health and that you have even a lot of time in front of you to pick up all the marvels that the world still has to offer… this is my desire and, according to your words, it is my order… therefore, my dear Fatimah, you are forced to be happy, because the day that you are not it, that day you will be breaking this commitment of making of my desire an order :)”I would NEVER break a commitment or an order ..

I liked it very much. Everything – music, photos, words – made great impression on me, and my soul and heart echoed. Love, Ramute.
Thank you Ramute for feeling and understanding
Well, your writing is excellent one but what I liked most was “…human beings are an indivisible unit.” If you remember your writing me that we have many things in common in our nature, here too I find you close to my view. Sometimes or very often whenever someone asks me my religion I just say I don’t believe in religion. But it doesn’t mean that I am not religious. The fact is that I don’t like separating one human bieng from another as Hindu, Muslim, Christina, and so on. Simply becuase…”HUMAN BEINGS ARE AN INDIVISIBLE UNIT”
Yes Gopal,I am spiritual being. .I am Muslim but also more spiritual. I am not religious. just faithful :)Thank you for your wonderful words and your blog full of love and wise caring feelings. I am so pleased I found you Fatimah
