She was perturbed. She thought the only thing that could protect her was her prayers. He thought that her silly superstitions and worries would fade away.

Listening to the soundless voice
External form has no alternative but to express inner beauty. At first sight, the world may appear to collapse when “perspective” collapses, a frightening experience with fascinating results. If truth be told, it is often most wise to stay clear of one’s own mind’s machinations. A sincere seeker’s movement is a right move to the […]
The purpose of religion in human life
What I have personally experienced and observed is that the purest and most adored knowledge, poetry and artistic creativity have been inspired by signs from the divine. When we look deeply into western philosophy, we often find that individuals have, in essence, re-processed religious texts using different words, thereby removing the core of the divine […]
The beginning of the path
This is an amusing world full of fast-talking, fast-moving midgets who operate vast communication systems gathering and relaying information. Their information system is like an overgrown internet, and creators and users both are obsessed with trivia. They think if they get enough facts together they might understand themselves and other people. But most of their […]
The best homage is paid through the good
If possible, keep yourself ten thousand miles away from people who call others to join in their beliefs, like kings for their wars. Take not the counsels of thousands of years old beliefs only because they are thousands of years old. We must not waste time before idols, before sacred statues and personalities only because […]

İnsanoğlunun Acı ve Çilesinin Tek Çözümü
Aşk evrenle kesişir; yoktan var edilişinde de, mevcut durumunda da, geleceğinde de. Aşk sınırsızdır, kişinin onda yön değiştirebildiği bir boyuttur. Ancak, kişi onda asla bir bilince, entelektüel birikimine ulaşamaz, çünkü AŞK boyutu, akıl ve mantığın çok ötesindedir. Dinî açıdan, Aşk Allah’ın nefesi gibidir; onu duyabilir ya da hissedebilirsiniz ama şuurlu bir farkındalıkla odaklandığınızda, göremezsiniz. Aşk, […]
Ego mind is blind! Start with the heart!
We must be experiencing the peak of human selfishness and greed. We have descended into a kind of modern dark age, the wisdom of old is lost to us. It is an all-consuming tragedy. The energy in the world at the moment is striving for meaning as it desires the void of the image based […]
Allah İle Kulları Arasındaki Akit
Öncelikle, gerçekte var olan her şeyin Varlık, Yokluk ve Varlık ile Yokluk Arası’ndan ibaret olduğunu bilmeliyiz. Gerçek ya da hayali, var olan her şey hakikate dayanır. Hiç kimseden nefret etmeyin; ne kendinizden ne de düşmanlarınızdan. Düşmanlarınızın sadece, sizden daha sersem ve geçimsiz olduklarının ve muhtemel bir zamanlar hepsinden daha budala olduğunuzun farkına varın. Kalplerde öfke […]
