If you really want the Truth,forget the studies and the research and the so-called “evidence-based “approaches and learn to “see”,”hear” and feel! For that you need to cleanse your vision,your hearing and your heart,especially from theoretical abstractions and biases.Then you can see reality clearly  as it is. Period!

Asalamu aleykum.As I was listening to the recitation of Surat al Baqara on the first night of Tarawih prayer,I could hear the confirmation of what I was saying in the blogpost.Alhumdulillah.(Carl Jung would call that “synchronicity”. I would simply call it”signs from our Lord-in this case signs of confirmation).So in ayat 7 Allah says:”Allah has set a seal on their hearts and on their hearing ,And on their eyes is a veil”. There you go.All the doors of perception of Reality are closed!
Then in ayats 7&9 He says:”Ma yasharoon”. They don’t feel it.Why? Because ayat 10 “In their hearts is a disease.”.Could it be more clear?! If our eyes and hears and heart are blocked ,we cannot feel what is going on and we are doomed to go astray! Mashallah.The wisdom of our Creator. Have a wonderful(full of wonder) and blessed Ramadan!
