  1. Because empty-space is an illusion, nothing is something.
  2. There's everything to understand. A concept is known, and the known knows everything.
  3. There a times when having an open mind is difficult. For cultivating it try to avoid using these 5 words: None Never Only Every Always And replace them with: Maybe Sometimes Mostly Rarely Nearly Conversely, for cultivating restraint, avoid the latter in favor of the first.
  4. Contrary to popular belief, knowing isn't the only form of cognition.
  5. Perception is being shaped by expectation. The shaping is internal. Because of this, it can be observed in isolation. This simple fact escapes the tautology.
  6. In General: Like all conflicts, The remedy for war is compromise where the values of all stakeholders are included. In Particular: Palestine grants Israel "the right to exist", permits Israel to maintain defensible borders, and includes compromise, peace-making, and reconilliation in their state mandated cirricullum. Israel returns Palestinian land, rewrites the map returning the landmarks to their original arabic names, and includes Arabic language and the Quran in their state mandated cirricullum.
  7. ... imagine a ladder on the ground reaching up, up, up into the clouds. I don't need to know how tall the ladder is to understand that the ladder is "tall". It's like that
  8. It can't be known. But it can be understood through abstraction.
  9. Pain and pleasure can be accurately evaluated. Millions and millions of years of choosing pleasure instead of pain is "life". Lacking accurate evalutation of pain and pleasure, "life" can not persist.
  10. It's choosing to act in solidarity with other Muslims past present and future. The choosing creates a metaphorical vessel in the heart-and-mind which is congruent and connected with other Muslim hearts-and-minds.
  11. question: "where the fuck was your experiences, ideas, beliefs before physical birth?" answer: "on a time line of events within the realm of infinite possibilites" reaction: "Hi mind. You create a victim and trolling again 😊 mr. Ziran, it is lying to you. Do not trust it 😊" ‐------------‐------------------------- Please? What are the reasons for the reaction?
  12. Is this God lacking? How do you know? Please elaborate? the domains intersect at the border, in the same way, each omniverse at the very least meets its neighbors at the border of "what-it-isn't".
  13. in the moment, listen for resonance, harmony, and discord
  14. on a time line of events within the realm of infinite possibilites
  15. Lacking a creator is a limit. In the absence of limits, there's always creating and more.
  16. ... the righteous fall 7 times ... and rise - Proverbs
  17. Or, if God is Love, it's like saying, "I love." Period. What if they're manifestations of the same loving compassionate god? Noted OK I know how to disappear. ~poof~
  18. Not without compromising free-will If "His will" has decreed free-will, then, Allah would be acting as a guide. Quran 26:62 قَالَ كَلَّاۤۖ إِنَّ مَعِیَ رَبِّی سَیَهۡدِینِ [The Prophet] said, "Nay, indeed, with me (is) my Lord, He will guide me." ... surpasses human understanding ... That's one way of reading it. Here, those who are refusing to change are not considered innocent. They're guilty. أَلَيْسَ اللَّهُ بِأَحْكَمِ الْحَاكِمِينَ - "Is Allah not the most just of judges?" Quran 95:8 Each of the middle eastern countries have their own cultural norms. For example, the prevailing attitude among Egyptians is different when compared to the UAE. For detailed analysis IMPACT-SE ( dot org ) has been comparing the textbooks in the region.
