Mind needs to imagine and heart needs to experience.

Salaam,

Why does Allah ask us again and again to witness nature, to witness the universe, the heavens, the mountains, the rain? Why would you say these queries are posed? My opinion Because the deeper you dig, the more similarity you will find, and the closer you will get to the only possible solution - that something far greater than we can imagine created something so infinitely complex via such a simple, beautiful recipe. This requires no leap of faith. It simply requires unadulterated perception.

emphasize the 'a bit'... D

I believe that each "story" in the quran has a very historically factual dimension that concludes with a moral lesson for us but also can have an element of an allegory to parallel a very deep and spiritual meaning, beyond the simple story-line (oppressor = Pharoah , minority opressed believers = bani israel). In God's Infinite Wisdom He was able to allow for layers upon layers of meaning in His message.

Thoghts are the seeds of actions. We must make the effort to weed our "garden" of bad seeds and plant and cultivate good seeds.

Save the flaming for elsewhere.

quote from alpha97

MECHANISM AND FORM IS SECONDARY TO PURPOSE!

[savage_carrot]

The only way to really "know" anything about the metaphysical is to transcend the physical. Once you do this, you "know" without words, and this information of the infinite can't be brought back to the finite. It doesn't fit.

Beautiful.

In this journey if one attains faith in its DESTINATION, The path will be shown and that showing comes from HIM alone! There is no other source of GUIDANCE! Even holy QURAN can not guide. Guidance comes from HIM alone, and that happens, after one starts geting straight from inside!
