Theos-Talk Archives (December 2003 Message tt00077)

Hallo Jeremy and all of you,

My views are just views:

Well...
And the Sufi Al-Hallaj got killed in Bhagdad dead center in the year 922.
He was killed just because he said that Allah and he was ONE.
There was for many years a statue in the down town center of Bhagda of this
sufi.

"Mansur al-Hallaj (858-922) is one of Sufism's most controversial figures.
Executed in Baghdad for political reasons, Hallaj became famous for his
problematic saying, "I am the Real" (Ana 'l-Haqq), which can also be
translated as "I am the Truth" and "I am God." The only work of his
translated into English is the Tawasin (Ta wa-sin). It was translated by
'A'isha al-Tarjumana and is now on-line, although there are errors in the
scanned document. A collection of his Arabic poetry survives. One of his
poems, translated into English, can be found at the following link: Hallaj
on God. "
http://www.arches.uga.edu/~godlas/sufismearly.html#Hallaj (A fountain source
of Sufi teachings).

His work is here online in a pseudo-english translation:
http://www.arches.uga.edu/~godlas/Sufism/tawasin.html

Interestingly the Sufi - Hujwiri has made a scripture called: "The
revelation of the Veiled". (--- And not "Isis Unveiled" which Blavatsky
wrote).
We all know that Steiner read the teachingsd of the Sufi - named Hafiz.

But --- Let us read what has been prepared for each of us.
Some is good for you. Some is good for me.
This is the best.
Nature offers a wide variety of "papers" and also living creatues all around
us.
Distance is of no importance if one truely walks the path.

Following the doctrine of Learning how to Learn one has often to deal with
students, who says they want to learn.
But they are in fact quite often saying - they wan to learn it their WAY
even if that way won't make them more wise !
They also says that they want to learn about this culture or that culture
and use only ONE mode of interpretation.

It is all --- just --- Glamour Jingle Bells...versus .The Real Alluh
Akbar...

from
M. Sufilight with peace and love...
