  • Do you agree ?
    J Jafar

    Did you do the same thing as Lao Tse did?
    How to do that?

    Meditate, look inside yourselves.

    If An Orc, Gollum, Frodo are actually Tolkien, they must have the same power/capability like the first/original Tolkien!
    Is that true, sir?

    Of course everybody in LOTR is actually Tolkien.
    No each character are uniquely defined and designed by Tolkien so they're not as 'powerful' as Tolkien who can basically create anything he wants in LOTR.
    Each character that Tolkien has created gives Tolkien a unique perspective to the LOTR universe that he has created. The conflict of Frodo vs Sauron in LOTR is actually Tolkien vs Tolkien.

    Try to author your own novel, and you will understand the concept.

    Do you mean "The Infinite" has no desire, no feeling, no consciousness, etc. contrary to human beings!

    As mentioned, all inclusive.
    All X
    Whatever X is...

    From the perspective of the infinite.

    • Anyone is me (Identification)
    • Anywhere is here (Space)
    • Anytime is now (Time)

    We've discussed using the analogy of Lord Of The Rings and Tolkien on another thread.
    Let's use that analogy, everyone / everything in Lord Of The Rings is actually Tolkien.

    And then you're interacting with few characters, how would you answer the following

    • An Orc asked you.. "Does Tolkien have fangs?"
    • Gollum asked you.. "Does Tolkien love Fish?"
    • Frodo asked you.. "Where is Tolkien? Is he in Shire?"
    • Gandalf asked you.. "Does Tolkien proficient in Magic?"
    • Sauron asked you.. "Does Tolkien have desire towards power and control?"
    • Treebeard asked you... "Does Tolkien love the tree and forest?"
    What is the nature of God?

  • Do you agree ?
    J Jafar

    As mentioned, all-inclusive.
    And you are referring to "the infinite" with 3rd person grammar in English.
    As if you view "the infinite" is located "outside of you"?
    How could something that has no border / edges be located outside of anything?

    Since before time and space were,
    the Tao IS.
    It is beyond is and is not.
    How do I know this is true?
    I look inside myself and see.

    What is the nature of God?

  • Do you agree ?
    J Jafar

    Yes use whatever "name" that one prefer as a reference to the all inclusive, the infinite.
    Brahman, Tao, Heavenly Father, The Source, Ar-Raheem, Great Spirit...

    Name is not important, what's more important is to grasp (at least) the concept of infinite.
    Bound-less, border-less, edge-less, on any dimension.
    To such extent that even the definition of dimension (space, time) is also defined inside the infinite.

    As such that any form of conception that is finite (bordered, edged) on any dimension will be and must be a part of that infinite.

    It will be then self-evident that
    There are many finites but there can only be one infinite.

    That which is infinite cannot be many, for many-ness is a finite concept.
    --Ra, Law Of One

    Now..
    From the perspective of any finite (which definitely part of the infinite).
    There is here, because not here (there) exist..
    There is me, because not me (he/she/it,them) exist..
    There is now, because not now (past, future) exist..

    For any finite, there is always a border / edge that act as a separation between IS and NOT IS. Between 'here' and 'there', between 'me' and 'not me', between 'now' and 'past or future'.
    Yet any of those finites, is always inside the infinite.

    What is the nature of God?

  • Do you agree ?
    J Jafar

    Due to confusion on the actual meaning of the word "God".
    I refrained from using such word and prefer to use the word "Infinite".

    From the perspective of the Infinite.
    Anyone is ME.
    Anywhere is HERE.
    Anytime is NOW.

    Due to by definition, infinity does not have any edges/border, in any form of definition (identification, space or time). In time context it doesn't have any beginning or ending. As all finite definition of time is inside / part of the Infinite.

    Thus the reason why there can only be one Infinite.
    And no finite things exist outside of the Infinite.

    As part of the 'illusion', every finite part of the Infinite is created with opposing polarity concept.
    Because of 'good' exist then it's opposite 'evil' also exist, because 'love' exist then 'hatred' also exist and so on and so on.

    Under heaven all can see beauty as beauty only because there is ugliness.
    All can know good as good only because there is evil.

    J Jafar

    Brother Jafar.
    You can call it a database. GOD says it is a record of deeds for each person Everything is recorded.
    At GOD s we get our video tape.
    Your data and every other individual along with you ,yes and your friend good logic too
    Look ,GOD is talking to us here

    It's a record of everything related to events, act, emotion, thought included.
    Of any type of entities (human or non human, angels, aliens, demons, jinns, deities, planets, suns, animals, plants, rocks included)
    It's more like a VR movie.
    Try accessing it, so you can experience it by yourself.
    Once you did, you will then realize that jafar or good logic does not really exist, and it's merely a virtual character. #egoDeath
    What truly exist is consciousness, and it's infinite / borderless on any type of (virtual) dimension (space or time)

  • The "Beast" from the Earth = Computer - Rashad was right - Proof fr Dictionary
    J Jafar

    There is nothing in the heavens and the earth that is hidden; everything is in a profound record.

    "For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be known or brought out into the open."
    -- Jesus

    It's a reference to Lawh Mahfuz (Preserved Tablet / Record), in other traditions it's known as "Akashic Records" (Akash, sanskrit for Fabrics of Space/Time). Using modern language it can also be called as "the universal cloud database of events".
    If there is such thing as "Divine Records", then this is it. (and not some books such as Bible, Quran, Gospel, Tanakh, Torah what have you.. )

    All of you (and everything else, aliens, animals plants etc..) are always connected to this database.
    All aspect of your experience (thoughts, emotions, visions, hearing etc..) are streamed into it for record keeping.
    It's "virtually / temporary" hidden for read access by a 'firewall' to the conscious mind of living human.

    But this 'firewall' is semi permeable and can be 'penetrated'.

    So far, the best explanation on what it is and how it works is described by Thomas Campbell.

  • Question about oppression
    J Jafar

    Are the oppressed people always the good people? I mean not always but mostly?

    Not all oppressed people are good people.
    But the opposite is true.

    Good people will never oppressed another people.
    Good people will never threatened other people.
    Good people will never see him/her self as superior to other people.
    Good people will never seek vengeance or hold grouches to other people.

    Instead
    Good people will try to help other people.
    Good people respect other people's free will, opinion and belief.
    Good people is humble, he/she sees other people as part of him/her own self.
    Good people is compassionate and forgiving.

    Through this opposite of characteristics you can then recognized good vs bad/evil, light vs darkness.
    This recognition is the lesson for you to learn while you're here now on earth.

    It is misleading if you reckon good vs bad/evil based on people's races, nationality, ethnicity, religion, social classes/condition, wealth and other form of social identities. Only through their individual characteristic you can differentiate them.

    Hardship / Oppressed / Adversity is a temporal condition, it will eventually change and shifted.

    Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power

  • I think I've left sunni Islam and I'm a Submitter now. But I have a Question 🙏
    J Jafar

    I can't take it anymore. Sunnis are very dogmatic and they're destroying the religion of Allah! They will rather defend a fabricated Hadith within Sahih Bukhari than to defend the honor of prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). I just can't see how that would be the truth. The entire world is laughing at them and accusing our prophet of pedophilia, all because of their rigidness and partisanship to some ancient Hadith scholars...

    The prominent thing about the "Religion Of Islam" is the accusation about the narcissistic nature of Muhammad.
    I'm talking about "The Shahada" wherein allegedly Muhammad asked everyone to testify that he is the messenger of God, repeated at least 5 times daily.

    And since the shahada is a requirement to be a member of religion of Islam and Muhammad is said to be also a member, he will too then fall into the same obligation. And how would Muhammad's own shahada sounds like?
    "I testify that I AM the messenger of God?"

    Imagine how weird for let say, Lionel Messi asking everyone to testify that he is a world class footballer.
    And 5 times a day he also state "I am a world class footballer".
    Looks like Messi had a huge insecurity and ego issue. #mentalIllness

    However, I am very afraid right now because I've watched some videos about the proofs for Rashad Khalifa's messengership

    Why are you afraid?

    Didn't God literally say that He only Reveals the secrets to his chosen messengers?

    No..
    The 'secret' of the universe can be known and revealed by anyone who seek and ask questions.
    Including you..

    Thus the reason why "Fear based Religion" (such as Islam, Judaism and Christianity) require anyone to "JUST OBEY AND BELIEVE" and never ever ask question. Those who dare to question the validity of their dogma and belief will be replied with a threat of punishment.

    Fear based Religion, as the name implied, is using fear to gain control and obedience of the masses.

    General Issues / Questions

  • Palestine and Jerusalem are not holy nor hold any significance in Islam
    J Jafar

    Jerusalem = City of Peace
    Al-Quds = The Holy
    The name has became an oxymoron.
    For many centuries, the place has been the cause of many crusades and wars, where human kill another human.

    If there's any significance to the tales related to the place; is that it has become a 'bad example'.
    Do not do what those people did over there, treat them as a bad example.
    Yet dig further on the why, on the what drove human to kill another human, yet treat it as lesson learned to be avoided elsewhere.

    Archeology & History

  • Jesus was the nephew of Prophets Moses and Aaron
    J Jafar

    If the poster main statement is
    Joshua and Iashua is the same name.
    Then that is correct.
    ישוע = Iahshua, meanings Yahweh Saves..

    But the character / personality which "conquered the philistine's land" (Joshua Ben Nun, the nephew of Moshe and Aaron) and "the Jewish apostate" (Jesus) is at odd with each others.

    I personally more impressed with the personality of "The Apostate Iashua / Joshua" (Jesus) rather Joshua Ben Nun who conquered the phillistine's land.

    Thus saying Joshua Ben Nun and Jesus is the same 'personality' is as weird as saying Siddhartha (The Buddha) and Temujin (Genghis Khan) is the same personality. Joshua Ben Nun had more similarity in personality to Genghis Khan, while Jesus had more similarity in personality with Siddhartha (The Buddha).

    Questions/Comments on the Quran

  • Jesus was the nephew of Prophets Moses and Aaron
    J Jafar

    Jesus was the nephew of Prophets Moses and Aaron
    And the Joshua of the False Torah is actually Jesus himself.

    The characteristic of Joshua and Jesus is on the opposite end of each others.

    Joshua the conqueror, the vanquisher of Canaanites and Philistines, the destroyer of Jericho and many other "idol worshipper" settlements, leading the "True God's chosen people" to settle in "God's promised land".

    Jesus, the teacher, preached love and forgiveness, forgive his enemies who plotted to kill him, fighting against the religion and common belief of his own society, convicted by death penalty due to violation of "God's law", an apostate and a blasphemer of "God".

    By "God" here it refer to an entity named "Yahweh", the God of Israel.

    Questions/Comments on the Quran

  • I have been Sunni for a decade, but I need help now. Serious help!
    J Jafar

    Who am I?
    I love Sunni Islam, I am a Hanafi.. I was first a Hanafi for a couple of years, and then a Salafi for over 5 years, and reverted back to Sunni Islam and have been sunni for a couple years now.

    WHO AM I ?
    It's a very good question that you should often ask to yourselves.
    And you'll find the answer continuously changing...

    Who Am I before I am a Hanafi?
    Who Am I 5 years from now?
    Who Am I before I was born?
    Who Am I after I died?

    And why did prophet Muhammad leave us with the Qur'an only, and Allah said that he has PERFECTED our religion today (i.e. that day when we only had the Qur'an) and then some 200 years later comes some persian scholars and oblige us to believe in a ton of other books and you're a kafir if you doubt one single narration from them. It doesn't make sense to me, please help me understand all of this.

    The statement/threat of "You're a Kafir / Infidel / Pagan / Goy and you will be punished and tortured!" is a key identifying characteristic of Fear Based Religion.
    Understand the reason WHY people invented an Exclusive Fear Based Religion and you shall make sense of it all.

    General Issues / Questions

  • An interesting and enlightening paragraph from a book
    J Jafar

    Once a reference to the definition of "Infinite" is mentioned then it only refer to only one, which is infinite and inclusive of anything and everything.
    There cannot be many 'infinite', as by definition; infinity is border-less while in order to be 'many' a border need to be defined, the border that provide separation between here and there, me and not me, mine and not mine.

    The conception of 'infinite' is known and labeled by many names throughout planet earth; Brahman, Tao, Great Spirit, Hyang, Heavenly Father, Infinite Creator just to name a few. The similarity can be recognized as those names are merely a reference to the 'infinite'. Yet the 'true name' actually does not exist as 'false name' also does not exist.

    "The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao. The name that can be named is not the eternal name."
    -- Lao Tse

    I deliberately not include the word "God" in that list, as the term is distorted in meanings.
    To some people the term "God" is a reference to something that is "finite" or "has border"; as such the term "My God", "Your God", "Their God", "Other God" become meaningful. While such term is illogical as a prefix to "infinite". As mentioned; "infinite" is "inclusive" (includes all) and not "exclusive".
    To the infinite; anyone is me, anywhere is here and anytime is now.

  • Poet Rumi and Islam?
    J Jafar

    Mongols? I think they followed Tengri too.

    Not all "Mongolian" of course, we do not want to fall into the trap of "stereo typing" aren't we?

    I'm referring specifically to "13th century Mongolian Empire", which was founded by Temujin / Genghis Khan.
    Within the same era; the mentioned caliphates worshipped "Allah" yet they war, hate and bickered against each others.
    Their brutality is pretty much at the same level as Temujin's Mongolian Empire.

    And such is the situation wherein Rumi was born into.

    General Issues / Questions

  • Poet Rumi and Islam?
    J Jafar

    Hmm, that was a defense of Rumi, like many do. hmm

    I don't think Rumi need a defense. So no I don't defend Rumi as I never met him.
    Yet some of his writings are in resonate with mine.

    But no, unfortuantely extremists often like Rumi, such as IS leader, who was also a pantheist, and Khomeini, also wrote poems and was inspired by Rumi, was also a hard "hadithist", and Iran now recently stopped a film festival, because there was no veil on the woman on the poster.

    Rumi lived around 12th century CE, the most appropriate figure of 'extremist' during his time are the caliphates (Abassid, Fatimid, Seljuks, Khwarazm) who

    1. Hate and bickered each others
    2. Waged war against each others
    3. Tried to enslave each others.
    4. Claimed to be the one and truest caliphate.

    3 of those caliphates then fell to the 'most brutal extremists' coming from the east, (Mongol Empire).
    Little Rumi and his parent escaped the Mongol Empire brutality by first migrating from Khwarazm Empire to Abassid, and then since Abbasid was also massacred by the Mongol, migrated again to the Seljuks territory.
