first night

What is our belief. What do we really believe in? When we try to answer this question, what is the first thing that comes in to your mind? Could this be the most important thing to you?

 

Lets go through a scenario,  you are sitting down on a red velvet couch, its red for a reason don’t forget, but for now the important part is your sitting. Now, please, think very deeply about where you are actually sitting. What is around you?

Imagine another human presence in your very close proximity, irrelevant of sex, while you are sitting on this red velvet couch.

 

Rather, imagine this,

 

In search for God:

First,

 

I would like to introduce myself but unfortunately you don’t know who I am. I could narrow it down by skin color, ethnicity, etc But I believe it to be an unnecessary in what is going to be spoken here. What is going to be spoken are words that are not attached to any type of social classification. I find the message about to be delivered is a message that each every human being can resonate with regardless of these arbitrary classifications we’ve appointed our selves.

Truth be told, I don’t really know who I am. So even if I wanted to tell you I couldn’t. Heh. I’m probably delusional myself. (as I do prone to get). There you go, one piece of information about me. I wish I could take that back because now you’re impression received is altered. (PERCEPTION RECEIVED- The collective social belief that a specific word has.

 

This was to go make my point in regards to the red velvet couch.

 

You may be close to one another , but your perception of the other is modified  - what this means is that the other person, after seeing you was also given (rather fed, or sometimes from personal experience) the character traits that are likely to be prevalent in you.

 

At this stage lets call it the gift stage. Your eye is a gift, remember that. You sight of him has brought in  you thoughts, please �" do not argue this point as it is simple and unimportant. But at this stage something like this would be likely to occur:

 

For example, if you happen to spot some one and are able to determine certain traits as skin color, possible religious affiliations via self proclamations hanging from the human neck.

 

--with these pieces, I now ask you to list what you could know about that person based on your physical inspection. �" You may list, there a kind species, there a species that have provided much advancements, there location or habitat is concentrated in the northern hemisphere, and access to the types of resources they have are different than another set of humans. What the species likes to eat, since different continents have different availability for food, ex-   Pakistan has access to mangoes where as California has oranges. Now these traits being listed, what’s Important to realize is that mere sight was enough to taint, an understanding of that person if you were to receive a message from him, not in person but in written form �" This is important as well �" pay attention-.  Your response to such a thing may be swayed by the general acquiescence of the previous mentioned information about that human.

 

Its better if you just understand me as a human being­­ �" our being is the exact same �" Will delve into this in a moment-

At this point I feel it is not warranted to go in further detail about the various stages the data collection process that occurs between us. Just remember though, at the higher stages, this is when we know a person, have information about them that no one knows but you - think about what this implies in regards to our previous scenario of a written statement being read. How would you react to a that person? Differently of course, to an identical statement by a stranger. 

 

- That is why I have brought you here, the message contained here on  in is one that requires, no BEGS, the recipient, to remove the veils placed upon about a person and start to realize the common characteristic of the element of being human. When the recipient truly strips away the social, demographical.- any type of association that creates a division between your person and them �" then the message can truly be absorbed.

Those who can, do away with colors, on humans for now and imagine this- only black and white realm. Humans- have no face, impossible to separate into categories except for the category of humans. We still require all that we require today but in a 2d realm. Forget about 3d- keep it very simple, - what’s mentioned here will help in understanding what is said later, - this is all preliminary, I promise it will get better. So,  the 2d world, I would describe it,  is a blind man who lives with other blind men (happily)  �" the only thing he knows is that they are humans �" he  knows they require water, food, shelter clothing �" the bare basics necessary for HUMAN survival, and understands what it means to BE a human.

The important thing now here is,..  that person shares the most deepest connection with that other person because it is at the most basic level as “humans”. Its good that I should clarify - the knowledge of the other person as being an human too �" is as much information as you will ever know about the other �" ever need to know. Because look, the reason this connection is different is because the fact that we are human is a fact that we as humans had no say, no impact in what it will actually mean to be a human. Therefore, the quality of being human is one designed and given to us from something else, - based on your beliefs you may attribute this phenomenon to God, to something supernatural, more powerful than yourself, or even to simply natural order and cause and effect. Nonetheless, you cannot deny the reality that our existence at the basic level before we alter the perception of ourselves in our own mind is rather quite interesting.

Now.. see what I want to say is that if we can do away with treating humans at any other (further distinguishing ) characteristics than the sole level of HUMANS we will understand what is meant to be a human.

 

First however, it is wise to realize that humans perception of themselves have been tainted by the blessings of perception �" Yes, tainted- you’ll see why In a bit. Shall we not have perceptions? Than in such a state what exists if not perceptions �" without perceptions �" how united we would be. Can’t you see, the commonalty, the aspect of being human, what we all share is truly what is important. Please believe that we are all the same, -if you do believe �" then this question will be unfamiliar to you.

 

What are humans �" yes at the most basic level what is a human being?

Pause, do you know God? You may not believe in a God �" but this should not prevent you from reading this.

So, do you know him. Well, do you know yourself? How could you though, see currently we are living with portrayals of our selves because we see what we do and we are affected by it, or by what we hear, {remember how we talked about people have different experiences on the same couch?}

These perceptions have made it that much more difficult to get to know yourself, the path to knowing God is not easy-

 

Point is �" those who claim they know themselves, they are not telling the truth �" the reason we should believe this is because as substantiated earlier �"humans ideas of themselves is constructed by the perception �" remember we are trying to be ONLY human, not anything else, you cannot be an American Human, -THIS IDEA is not even an idea in this realm �"if only you were to imagine- 

 

See the beauty in this, is not actually knowing who you are, it’s the search for it. Guys, the interesting question is what is a human �" At the very essence of A human, what is there ? After all, if it’s true that” when man understands himself, he understands God” �" Oh, would that not be a marvelous thing- to understand God?  If you believe in this saying,  (by the way, this saying was of Prophet Muhammad [pbuh])  if it should matter at this point �" then think about what that means.  Over 6 billion people on earth- and we all can understand God if only we understood ourselves, - how profound �"
