    The brain has two sides http//www.youtube.com/watch?v=UyyjU8fzEYU and the Quran asks for us to utilise all of our faculties

    Surah46 Al Ahqaf V26?And We had endowed them with (faculties of) hearing, seeing, heart and intellect but of no profit to them were their (faculties of) hearing, seeing, heart and intellect when they went on rejecting the Signs of Allah and they were encircled by that which they used to mock at!

    Jk - I agree with you about not chasing for things that can not be verified. But the rest of it - I just see that you are using your mind too much when you seem to be fixed on the denial of such matter.

    We are evolving people of consciouness - intellect is one mode of learning and intuition may be another. To say one is better than the other is arrogance - they are simply natural attributes that co-exist - like the sun and the moon exist. The greatest minds would have both Yin and Yang consciouness fully developed within themselves and draw on them as per need. God may cause either to awaken and take precedence depending on the evovled status of the individual. Therefore we can not compel someone, only invite them to the way of balance.

    In the Quran, we are required to worship, praise and pray to only one God - suggesting that we are not by ourselves alone the owners of our destiny. The intellectuals appear to not hear that straightforward message of Divinity given in the Quran.

    I see the main purpose of the Quran as something calling for the bitter truths of life to be recalled which are requird for success as a 'good person'. These bitter truths can not simply be concerned about the science behind it all - about how God works - what is His nature etc or even rituals and practices. Such aspects by themselves is what is happening in the paradigm of new ageism and they are with holes as they are not practiacally the highest in morality.

    Rather the message of truth in the Quran is with regards to how we were and are DESIGNED to live - in the highest and most moral way.....whether a person comes to know the science behind it all does not matter - as much as practically living the wisdom. In the day of judgement we will not be judged by how much knowledge we gained about life - but we will be weighted by our deeds that be manifest for the casue of God and not for ourselves.

    The essential message is to do good works for others in society and not wrongfully harm another and not fall from the straight and simple path to the path of error/misjudgement on reality etc - the path woven by satan.

    Protection is sought from God for being safe from that evil ? not simply of seeking of protection through wisdom or right conduct by the person themself in which case God would have made that only explicit in the Quran - but both modes are called upon.
    Surah3 Al Imran V36?. I have named her Mary and I commend her and her offspring to thy protection from the evil one, the rejected.

    So those of you getting fixated as to the details - the workings of nature etc - please take heed. Following one's intellect to take precedence over all other faculties is a kind of escapism or self preoccupation or self entertainment and does very little if anything to improve the quality of life for oneself or others - in fact many people living such a life will tend to be dysfunctional. Essentially it's just another way of worshipping oneself.

    Einstein was unable to take care of his basic human needs and in the later part of his life went around unkempt and in a fog of his mental persuits. Most intellectuals fall in to this way.

    Fadhli - In Judaism and Christianity the development of knowledge in the unknown is the basic symbol of our seperation from God - this is the symbol of the eating of the Apple of knowledge in the Garden of Eden. The Quran says to take seriously the messages of previous scripture......do you beleive that the Quran has authorised for what you have started practicing??

    The Quran advocates that the beleivers are those who beleive in the Book/s, the angels and His signs. (I don't have teh specific reference at this time)

    What are His signs? ? the miracles of nature in themselves show the possibility of all things ? they all form part of the natural phenomena.
    Surah 45 Al Jathiyah V3-11 Verily in the heavens and the earth, are signs for those who beleive. And in the creation of yourselves and the fact that animals are scattered are signs for those of assured faith. And in the alternation of Night and Day and the fact that Allah sends down sustencance from the sky, and revives therewith the earth after it's death and in the change of the winds - are signs for those that are wise..

    Signs can also be divinely inspired thorught words and wisdom
    Surah46 Al Ahqaf V7-8 When Our Clear Signs are rehearsed to them, the unbelievers say, of the truth when it comes to them ?This is evident sorcery!? Or do they say he has forged it?.

    The signs do not need to contain additional proofs of any matter ? it is the truth of the message that be proof in itself
    Surah46 Al Ahqaf V9 Say ?I am no bringer of new-fangled doctrine among the messengers, nor do I know what will be done with me or with you. I follow that which is revealed to me by inspiration I am but a warner open and clear.?

    The unbelievers want to experience the same inspiration form themselves before they believe
    Surah46 Al Ahqaf V11 The unbelievers say of those who believe ?if (this message) were a good thing, (such men) would not have gone to it before us!

    The unbelievers do not feel their lives are guided through themselves
    Surah46 Al Ahqaf V11 ??And seeing that they guide not themselves thereby, they will say, ?This is an old falsehood!?

    Only those that remain firm on the path of guidance form God can expect to be guided with God?s truth as opposed to being guided to all forms of deviances
    Surah46 Al Ahqaf V13 Verily those who say ?Our Lord is Allah,? and remain firm (on that path) ? on them shall be no fear, nor shall they greive.

    To hear the signs ? you need to engage not just the intellect but also you need to not reject what you hear, not reject what you see and not reject what you feel through your heart
    Surah46 Al Ahqaf V26?And We had endowed them with (faculties of) hearing, seeing, heart and intellect but of no profit to them were their (faculties of) hearing, seeing, heart and intellect when they went on rejecting the Signs of Allah and they were encircled by that which they used to mock at!

    Protection is sought from God for being safe from evil ? not simply of seeking of protection through wisdom or right conduct in itself.
    Surah3 Al Imran V36?. I have named her Mary and I commend her and her offspring to thy protection from the evil one, the rejected.

      What I found most interesting about this mans experience is what he perceived as hell. in the clip he mentioned hell as being a void of anything or non-existence. This agrees completely with Al Quran when it says that even hell will not exist forever.

      Actually

      Surah 43 Al Zukhruf V74 The sinners shall be in the punishment of hell to dwell therein......V77 They will cry 'O Malik! Would that thy Lord put an end to us!' He will say, 'Nay, but ye shall abide

        Peace "fadhli" and "humandesign",
        You spend too much time looking for the paranormal instead of livng in the actual real world which GOD has created. The unseen parts are RIGHT HERE in our world. No need to try and venture off into fantasy land. There are so many things still to investiaget on our own planet let alone the universe. Thats what the Quran asks us to contemplate on. GOD Bless!

          JK - How dare you accuse me of chasing pranormal matters????

          I am not in search of the paranormal - such matters are not part of my drive. I am in to living life the normal way.
          Where on earth did you get that idea that I am chasing the paranormal when I have been trying to advocate against proceeding in such matters.

          Please try to listen more to what others are saying and you might find yourself also listening to life and God in general much more.
          May such a request also be my prayer for you.

            Peace humandesign,

            A good effort, but I'm afraid anything outside the realm of science is paranormal, supernatural, hallucination, etc., to JonnyK and those he admires. I guess we're just machines that think we're something more.

            Peace,

              Peace Jonny,

              The first part of your post is repetitive and I've addressed it in detail, and in multiple ways.

              You stated

              The problem is that your now engaging in wishful thinking. There are a lot of things bigger than us and we know that already.

              What part of my post is wishful thinking?
              Your admiration of intellectuals? You've openly admitted this.
              The qur'an assuring us that we know very little? It's in the book and you already agree in bold above.

              But as to what we do not know, how can we claim any significance in that without evidence?

              We can't claim one way or the other. How can I make it any more clear? If someone experiences something that is beyond what we can explain through science, then we shouldn't bother re-shaping it into something that can be explained. That's what you keep doing.

              Why should we believe something in the absence of evidence? This is my qs.

              Well, if it exists, then it's there for a reason. It's to engage our spiritual side. People that have experienced it understand when others express something similar. It's the one's who have not experienced it that are creating all the fuss.

              Peace,

                JK- You hit the nail on the head with this statement. We have evolved to a point where we make all kinds of ridiculous and deluded claims at certain times especially under huge stress or exhaustion as happened with Michael Shermer when he though after a long bicycle ride that hes been abducted by Aliens. I repeat for anything which has not been proven through proper controlled conditions one should not delve into such and waste time UNTIL ofcourse one is ready to offer proof. If proof to the contrary already exists then such pursuit would be even worse. GOD Bless!

                  The first part of your post is repetitive and I've addressed it in detail, and in multiple ways.

                  JK- I believe i did the same.

                  You stated

                  JK- The part where you claim that we have an external soul which controls our brain is wishful thinking and theres evidence to the contrary as ive mentioned many MANY times. As for us knowing very little ABOUT THE UNIVERSE this is very clear. Dark energy is one example. It is not yet understood properly. Abiogenesis also still lacks quite a few details though the findings of RNA solved the puzzle to a great extent.

                  We can't claim one way or the other. How can I make it any more clear? If someone experiences something that is beyond what we can explain through science, then we shouldn't bother re-shaping it into something that can be explained. That's what you keep doing.

                  JK- In case of NDEs or OBEs being real, in the ssense that they allow one to tap into another dimension from which certain other humans too could derive similar info shoudl they tap into the same, there exists evidence to the contrary and that is that whilst one experiences such the same patterns of neuro firings in the same audio/visual regions can be seen as if they were actually shown similar things which they claqimed to have seen during such experiecnes. This should be evidence enough. Now there is always a tiny probability that evn this whole world is a matix controlled by another universe by aliens. But can we all agree that such an assumption is nonsense? I think we can.

                  Well, if it exists, then it's there for a reason. It's to engage our spiritual side. People that have experienced it understand when others express something similar. It's the one's who have not experienced it that are creating all the fuss.

                  Peace,
                  Tay

                  JK- The human brain does release similar hormones and triggers simlar experiences under extreme stress such as NDEs. Scienstists already know this and theres nothing spiritual about this except in a metaphorical sense. Didnt i show you the clp where scientists ran the NDE test on themselves. They expericend the very same as would anyone else with the difference that he wouldnt make the assumption of being in some spiritual world because HES ACTUALLY ONE STEP AHEAD i.e. HE KNOWS THE CAUS. GOD Bless!

                    I guess I did. I was being a bit sarcastic, but if that's really your premise, I see no point in discussing any of this with you.

                      Peace all

                      Quote from HD
                      Fadhli - In Judaism and Christianity the development of knowledge in the unknown is the basic symbol of our seperation from God - this is the symbol of the eating of the Apple of knowledge in the Garden of Eden. The Quran says to take seriously the messages of previous scripture......do you beleive that the Quran has authorised for what you have started practicing??

                      Are you saying that "eating" the knowledge in the unknown is forbidden? What science and religion has been doing now to understand the knowledge is not "eating" the knowledge of the unknown? Since Adam we have been blessed (cursed?) with this desire to understand things, to seek the knowledge. No doubt about it. Even Quran says to verify it personally. So what i'm doing is to verify it myself. If i recall correctly, Christians sometime ago believes that earth is flat. So to believe that earth is revolving around the sun is blasphemy because Bible says earth is flat and the sun is revolving around the earth. Are you gonna be like this? Repeating history that has taught us? Quran also says it SUPERCEDES the previous scriptures. Which one do you choose? What i practiced is just techniques. It's not ritual and obviously not polytheism. I take it like learning how to ride a bicycle, or driving a car. Just need to get used to it.

                      What are His signs? ? the miracles of nature in themselves show the possibility of all things ? they all form part of the natural phenomena.
                      Surah 45 Al Jathiyah V3-11 Verily in the heavens and the earth, are signs for those who beleive. And in the creation of yourselves and the fact that animals are scattered are signs for those of assured faith. And in the alternation of Night and Day and the fact that Allah sends down sustencance from the sky, and revives therewith the earth after it's death and in the change of the winds - are signs for those that are wise..

                      I assume you define nature as everything that is on earth that is not in our control. Is that it? What about space? is that nature to you? What if this another dimension is the natural phenomena too? If this is nature too, I think i should go and to understand it. Just like i understand the creation of night and day, the winds, the trees and animals, the space, the stars, etc. Unless you want to draw an invisible line about nature to yourself, it's fine by me.

                      Only those that remain firm on the path of guidance form God can expect to be guided with God?s truth as opposed to being guided to all forms of deviances
                      Surah46 Al Ahqaf V13 Verily those who say ?Our Lord is Allah,? and remain firm (on that path) ? on them shall be no fear, nor shall they greive.

                      Like Quran said, I want to remain firm on the path that has been given to me. I won't fear or be grieve to face this path.

                      To hear the signs ? you need to engage not just the intellect but also you need to not reject what you hear, not reject what you see and not reject what you feel through your heart
                      Surah46 Al Ahqaf V26?And We had endowed them with (faculties of) hearing, seeing, heart and intellect but of no profit to them were their (faculties of) hearing, seeing, heart and intellect when they went on rejecting the Signs of Allah and they were encircled by that which they used to mock at!

                      Are you rejecting and mocking His sign? I want to see and be thankful to His signs. And to be equal in measure, i have to understand it. From this struggle (maybe it's bad, maybe it's good i don't know) i am confident that i will gain the wisdom from it.

                      Like we've discussed before, i don't know what you had faced that made you think that it's morally wrong or not our human nature to do this. I also don't know what i'm saying or doing is gonna eat me back or not. But what i know is that this feeling of wanting to go there is very high. And the voice in my heart is also supporting me and guiding me to go there. If this is what i should do, i'll do it. I don't want to be scared of what other people told me not to. Maybe you've had enough experiences on that part, then good for you. But that doesn't justify that you are correct.

                      I hope i'm not mocking anybody or being arrogant. I just felt like i had to do this. And i have made up my mind to face my inner fear.

                      I remember a verse in Quran about trying to penetrate the heaven. And God says penetrate it if you will but it will not be that easy. There will be trajectories that will be fired if one attempts to pass through it.

                      Remember what i said about consensus environment? The author said when journeying inside, there will be at some point where we will see a wall that can't be crossed. It kinda like protected. I think this is what God wants to say. With Quran as guide, maybe we can understand more about this unseen.

                      Peace handshake

                        Peace "fadhli" and "humandesign",
                        You spend too much time looking for the paranormal instead of livng in the actual real world which GOD has created. The unseen parts are RIGHT HERE in our world. No need to try and venture off into fantasy land. There are so many things still to investiaget on our own planet let alone the universe. Thats what the Quran asks us to contemplate on. GOD Bless!

                        How much time is too much time? For me i just practice this OBE thing while i sleep (just started for 2 days). Not much time is wasted. Other than that i just live like usual, working reading, surfing, eating, salat etc. It doesn't effect my sleep either. It's the other way around, i felt more energized and positive. Nothing significant changes happen other than realizing there's more inside the unseen. It's not that that "time consuming" IMHO. And i think it's worth it considering many people have been wasting time searching for answers that they are not sure of.

                        1031 By time.
                        1032 The human is indeed in loss.
                        1033 Except those who believe, and do good works, and support one another with the truth, and support one another with perseverance.

                        Edit
                        Found the verse, here it is
                        5531 We will call you to account, both of you beings.
                        5532 So which of your Lord's favors will you deny?
                        5533 O tribes of Jinn and humans, if you can penetrate the outer limits of the heavens and the Earth, then go ahead and penetrate. You will not penetrate without might.
                        5534 So which of your Lord's favors will you deny?
                        5535 He sends against both of you projectiles of fire, and of copper; so you will not succeed.

                        And i want to add, to succeed in this journey is challenging. Depends on what your mind interpret as how much challenging is challenging. You have to be very positive, patient, open minded and believes that it's there. Just like Quran had taught us.

                          Fadhli - with regards to penetrating the the outer limits of the heavens (it is not talking about the heavens simply but is talking about going beyond it).

                          I came accross that exact verse about two days ago and it did make me ponder about going to the unknown. Then I came accross a verse that said we will never be able to know what is beyond the heavens and earth. This is clearly marked somewhere I will try to find it again. This then makes understanding about whta is meant by tryingt openetrate the outer heavens

                          But you may be wanting to merely go in to space - then if people want to go in to space - of course they are doing so already - but think about the risks - of bumping in to some alien speicies wanting to take over earth and wipe out humanity or in their trying to us to serve them instead. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D I know - that would appear far stretched in our small minds - but it illustrates that what I mean by the unknown - the risk of the unknown.

                          And secondly it is not the highest use of ourselves - such knowledge will not stand us better in the sight of God - only doing good works is what is asked for again and again in the Quran - it is what is stressed the most. Think about it - if you had a choice between spending your resources on going in to space OR eliminating all starvation in the world which would you give priority?

                          I know what I think would be best in the sight of God.

                          I personally don't engage with the educational system that tells anyone what is what - because that is all man-made conjecture. Therefore there is no need for me to invesitgate to refute any established laws as to whether the world is flat/round or how atoms work - because I am just living by what I am seeing and feeling and comprehending for myself - not based on what others will have told me by resercing and trying to understand via theri limited brains from God's intelligence. And that what I am living by and seeing and hearing is nature for me - it does not fall in to any definition or hold boundaries - so yes your third world reality also consitute part of nature - as they are part of God's creation.

                          But whether the world is flat or round makes not difference to my goal of helping people and living my life in the most practical and moral way.

                          Fadhli - I went along that path that you have taken - I was shaken with fear and feelings of being lost - I have taken THOSE as SIGNS to mean that I should not go there and I am extremely thankful to God for putting me back on the right path (remember I was away from this Quranic path)- how thereby am I exactly mocking HIS SIGNs rather than following what God wishes for me???

                          Again I fear that you did not start this thread with a purity and opennes of your mind for sincere investigation but to support your need to face and chase entertainment.

                            Just going through finding some verses concerning the unseen.

                            This one is interesting

                            2765 Say "None in the heavens or the Earth know the unseen except God. And they do not perceive when they will be resurrected."

                            See that Heaven or Earth? why two? Without this clue those who'd venture in the heavens (maybe heaven is the other dimension they are talking about) might mistaken that it is God (some say God is the universe). Whereas

                            2764 The One who initiates the creation then He returns it, and He provides for you from the sky and the land. Is there a god with God? Say "Bring your proof if you are being truthful."

                            Only the One knows about the hereafter.

                            2766 No, they have no knowledge of the Hereafter. No, they are in doubt regarding it. No, they are blind to it.

                            Even those who are in the heavens don't know about the hereafter. Maybe the heaven is the other (multiple) dimensions that only OBEers or the deceased can access? While the unseen, only God knows it? Hmm maybe i should be careful with my words about the unseen.

                            If this is true, the unseen is not what our eyes can see. The unseen is something that we cannot know?

                            Here's some more

                            7226 The knower of the unseen, He does not reveal His knowledge to anyone.
                            7227 Except to whom He has accepted as a messenger, then He reveals from the past and the future.
                            7228 So that He knows that they have delivered the messages of their Lord, and He surrounds all that is with them, and He has counted the number of all things.

                            What kind of messenger is messenger? According to those who had ventured in, we can also see the past and future. Only by wishing to know it. I cannot prove this. But an author Albert taylor did tried to seek his future while OBE. It did happened but he found that he cannot change his future. There's also a lot of predictions by the so called psychics about our future. See for yourselves. I'm not telling you to believe. But just observe. Maybe we can learn something.

                            Peace

                                Peace HD ;D eat

                                But you may be wanting to merely go in to space - then if people want to go in to space - of course they are doing so already - but think about the risks - of bumping in to some alien speicies wanting to take over earth and wipe out humanity or in their trying to us to serve them instead. Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin I know - that would appear far stretched in our small minds - but it illustrates that what I mean by the unknown - the risk of the unknown.

                                I sense fear in you jedi ;D > voodoo. What are you afraid of? Death? Earth's doom by the aliens? Who's more powerful? God or them? You know only to God that we request help right. But why fear those aliens? Why fear venturing to the unknown? What's the worst case it can do? sickness? confusion? haunted? death? And yes i believe it is a SIGN for you. It brought you to God. It brought you here. And I'm glad you thankful for that. I'm thankful too ;D. If not because of you how can i write this comments?

                                ......And they only guess and follow conjecture.

                                So you are not guessing? You guess heaven is space. What if heaven in Quran is LITERALLY heaven? I used to guessed that heaven is space. But my guess now it is not. It's not from conjecture. It's from my logical thought. What about them? I assume you guess they are guessing and follow conjecture.

                                Fadhli - I went along that path that you have taken - I was shaken with fear and feelings of being lost - I have taken THOSE as SIGNS to mean that I should not go there and I am extremely thankful to God for putting me back on the right path (remember I was away from this Quranic path)- how thereby am I exactly mocking HIS SIGNs rather than following what God wishes for me???

                                I'm sorry I don't know what you had faced. This guy wrote in his book about his journey. Have you faced something like this? Maybe we can learn something from this.

                                As I slate down to the darkness, I see a large, slowly moving form. It appears to be headed towards me. As it comes closer, I see the outline of a huge hairy creature, a giant sloth, standing nine feet high; it has a bear's head and the face of a dog. My entire being is paralyzed with fear. I desperately want ot run, but I hold my position. Slowly, the creature climbs the stairs and wraps its huge hairy arms around my neck and body. All I can think is, This thing can snap my neck in a heartbeat.

                                Suddenly the creature gives me a warm hug and licks my face like a dog. All my fear dissipates as I realize that this ugly creature is powerless to harm me. An intense feeling of empowerment and joy explodes through me; I feel completely free from my fear and limits. The creature looks directly into my eyes, smiles and disappears. A surge of energy flows through me as I recognize a new form of freedom. An absolute freedom from fear.

                                I do not think this is entirely an entertainment nor a show off (there is a feeling of excitement though ;D). It can be a test to face our fear. It can be a task to spread the message to help humans. It could be our own soul development process. It could be one of our purpose of life. It could increase our understanding of the universe. And it could increase our awareness towards our Creator.

                                And doing good is a must. It cleanses our heart. Charities, helping others, respecting elders and parents etc. I always felt joyed when i managed to help others in anything especially my parents. I believe it is one of the things that increase my positive thoughts. Imagine if someone requires our help and we says no. What would we feel? Don't care? Don't feel nothing? feel guilty? What kind of good is good? we must judge ourselves. For example, giving money to the poor is one of the good thing to do right? But money itself is just a paper. Would God approve it? But to us it is valuable. And that feeling of giving something valuable to us is the thing that we have to seek. It releases the attachment towards that item that we value. The worldly desire that we value. I think that is one of the good thing about doing good. It's a test whether we surrender or not to the lust for worldly desires why not release it? All in all it's for our own benefit and for us to experience it.

                                Even our lives. It's valuable to us right? would you give it to God if somehow he requested it? What would you do? (refer to Abraham and his son story). If you face this kind of thing (anything out of ordinary). Would you run away? Or would you face it? Would you die because of it? even if you die, Would it really matter? In the end we still return to our Creator. I'm not telling you to become suicidal like stabbing yourselves. But think about it. There is a difference between purposely dying because you can't stand living and dying for the cause of God or struggling to achieve something for your own purpose.

                                I guess each one of us is given a different path. One go this way, the other go that way. Maybe some would see that what others experienced is right/wrong or good/bad. I think that path is maybe designed by the Lord of the unseen to them. It's because they're inspired to choose that path. Like those poor people. Try to feel what they think. I don't think we can. And those who are rich? Yeah a lot of them wrote books about it. Maybe some is sincere, maybe some is just aiming for the money and fame. We do not know. The point is, rich or poor good people bad people, everyone had chose the path that had been given to them. Still at the end it will lead to only one ending. DEATH. > pr tempt So why fear it? yay peace

                                Peace handshake

                                  I agree to a certain extent with Fadhli on this as I've experienced OBE before shifting into the real time world and astral world. This obviously is a personal experience and not proof of OBE.

                                  I personally think being "too scientific" and the opposite end I guess you can call it "spiritualist" will lead you to arrogance. I believe there's a balance with things as God has created things in pairs so I believe its all about balancing both ends of these.

                                  To all rationalists/scientists what would a scientist have had called Muhammed when he was claiming messengership or claiming to OBE/astral project on layla tul isra?

                                  The Qur'an, chapter 17 (Al-Isra), verse 1 ? Glory to (Allah) Who did take His servant for a Journey by night from the Sacred Mosque to the farthest Mosque, whose precincts We did bless,- in order that We might show him some of Our Signs for He is the One Who heareth and seeth (all things).?

                                  A deluded hallucinated man or a liar, bear in mind he was called this?? But of course we know he OBE/astral projected to heaven from quranic point of view but a non quranic believer or a scientist will say he imagined this. I'm not saying shun science all together but there's no difference in my opinion of someone who's holding onto science/logic to explain everything and someone who rejects science/logic all together.

                                  PEACE

                                    Yes i agree with you on balance. Equal measure. But for now i can't OBE yet (still struggling). So i can't scientifically observe it or experiment it yet. So i can only just theorize it based on others experiences (with hopes that it would sparks other people interests). And spiritually believes from it's wisdom that.. uh it is spiritual. Dunno what spiritualist do. ;D

                                    And the journey of the night. It's like slapping the face with OBE/AP. ;D

                                    I'm imagining the free-minders OBEing together. Searching and sharing their experiences in this forum because we have Quranic background. And verify the past and God's creation. I believe everyone can OBE. It's just the matter of wanting it or not.

                                      Fadhli - you are really revved up and it si easy to see how you have changed since our former - more polite conversations.

                                      I'd be weeary of what you are downloading on to your self when you are OBE ing away like you are!

                                      I would also like to thankyou for the belly ache of laughter you have just made me have. You are very cute indeed!!!

                                      rotfl rotfl rotfl rotfl rotfl yay yay rotfl rotfl rotfl rotfl rotfl rotfl rotfl yay yay yay

                                      On a seious note

                                      What excatly I faced does not matter as much as the lessons I learnt.

                                      I don't think you have understood the Quran but you are conjecturing away on it.

                                      At the time of Abraham - many sons were sacrificed to different Gods etc (as per understanding of archeological evidence)- if Abraham saw that in a dream - in so far as the nature of dreaming that I have managed to expereince and understand for myself how they work - I would say that Abraham either misinterpreted the dream or it was a dream from satan. When I say misinterpreted I mean usually there is a contradiction played out in the dream to get the dreamer to understand the discrepancy. It is more likely that Abraham did not recall the 2nd part of the dream that would have been trying to message to him not to partake in such an activity.

                                      I have understood that God talks about 7 heavens in the Quran - the heaven is a canopy above the earth. What we understand as heaven may or may not be part of our eventual abode - but for now as far as I am concerned the specific details of it don't matter to me as I am trying to live my life here on earth.. Again it shows how you are so desparate to understand things that are so beyond.

                                        I personally don't believe when you sleep you goto heaven i.e the final abode after this life. But I personally do believe it is another dimension that is part of Gods creation. Also ponder on this verse too

                                        Allah takes the souls at the time of their death, and that, which has not died in its sleep; He withholds that against which He has decreed death, but releases the other till a stated term (al-Zumar 39 42)

                                        So in regards to the guy returning from death that is impossible as God says in the Quran he holds the soul and they cannot come back from death. So what this guy experienced was another dimension from an OBE and it was a wahi from God to him on a personal level. Scientists can explain how and what happened but not why or the purpose behind it.

                                        PEACE

                                          You're welcome. It's nice if i could make you laugh. hehe ;D

                                          Ok Back to business.

                                          About the Abraham, did i mentioned dream at that paragraph? Nope. Ok it's a bit out of topic on that paragraph. I'm just telling my understanding about the value of life and facing the fear of anything out of ordinary and what the story of Abraham impacts on this. Not how Abraham got that command to sacrifice his son (i.e by dream or whatever). I apologize for the out of topic paragraph. P

                                          but for now as far as I am concerned the specific details of it don't matter to me as I am trying to live my life here on earth..

                                          May God Bless you with your normal life on earth my dear HD ) ) )

                                          Again it shows how you are so desparate to understand things that are so beyond

                                          Am i looked desperate? No, I think excited is the word (maybe too excited P). And i like to share my thoughts as much as possible. Just to prepare myself and give myself experiences (experience being flamed by you guys? P P ;D ;D).

                                          Dear 2Pac,

                                          I personally don't believe when you sleep you goto heaven i.e the final abode after this life. But I personally do believe it is another dimension that is part of Gods creation.

                                          I agree with you on this too. Like commented previously. That is a (so called) consensus realm that is protected. Don't know how it could be penetrated. So in sleep maybe you can't just go inside it. Maybe heaven is all that dimension. Maybe the consensus realm is the Jannah(the park)?

                                          All in all it might be a personal wahi or maybe it's a different world i don't know.

                                          Peace out handshake
