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.

quote from alpha97

MECHANISM AND FORM IS SECONDARY TO PURPOSE!

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!

GOD is waiting for us to take one step toward HIM and HE will take 100 steps toward us.

Alpha97 again bravo

If one were to service a machine, by simply doing one small positive act, such as oiling a cog-wheel (i.e a component of the machine), then whilst the act was done on only one part of the machine, it would be true to say that one served the whole of it.

Every time god uses the word ?say? in the Quran, it means that we have to say it and realize it in order to understand it and verify it. Thus, we could live by it?

God intends to manifest on earth through your vehicle, but you must purify(zakaat) your vehicle(nafs/subconcious)).

For me I do not distinguish between real and physical. In fact I even doubt there is something physical altogether in this life, it is all an intricate, albeit very convincing illusion, meant as a Test. As for in the Hereafter, this will be the Reality. This life is just a stepping stone for what comes next.
