There is something new happening in this world !

Spirituality is coming in and taking over. Materialism (M) is soon to go down i believe. Very interesting times we will be going through i believe, starting from the corona virus and moving to new political transformations such as Turkey rising back to power and leading the Muslim world, and bringing the good light of Islam to the world (as opposed to the dark wahabi light held by Saudi). The Turkish light being Sufi based, which is a very peaceful and deep school of Islam. The famous Sufi poet, Rumi, is buried there, among others. Also Israel is predicted to no longer be there by 2023 (and this is from the Muslim holy book and the Jewish holy book).  So we are in very interesting times indeed I believe. The world is about to change big time I think. Ali Twaij 23 Jul 2020

Comparison of Current Western Culture and the Enlightened Culture

Greetings ! The Enlightened Culture (EC) is that which I believe is coming in the future. Based on a balanced spiritual/material content. A spirito-material culture if you like. Today Current Western Culture (CWC) is extremely material. Here is the comparison: 1- EC is into seeking Truth about reality, CWC doesnt really care about Truth, it just wants to live the life it sees and enjoy it to the max. 2- EC wants to make sense of this life, asking itself why it has been created, for what purpose, while CWC is just about consuming and enjoying. There is no room for meaning in its life. 3- EC takes its time and is calm and rational , CWC is rushing to the next rush of happiness that it can experience. The above points show that when EC does start to appear it will completely outwit CWC. People should clearly be able to see which is superior. However the problem is that there are many different types of enlightened people, each ascribing to a different religion or way. Its as if the...

Analysis of 'Towards Spirituality for 21st Century UK'

Greetings ! Having written my article ' Towards Spirituality for 21st Century UK ' I want to now also analyse it from many angles.  How likely is it to stir or affect people ? I am not sure it will stir very many. This is because people have gone of religion or spirituality. They may find it difficult to imagine anything good coming from it again. Or from anything that is close to it. Plus they may now be set in their ways , and so it is too late to bring up this topic again. But all a writer can do is try to call people to that which he or she believes will help them awaken. And many may resent being labelled unawake. So I think its very hard to approach this topic from this normal door. Its as if a lot of barriers have been piled in to prevent access to people from this doorway. To keep them subdued and asleep, living a life of material consumption and focus. To bring people back to look at the basic questions of life (like why we are here) has become meaningless I think....

Towards Spirituality for 21st Century UK (Part 2)

Hello again. In this part I will give a glance into my own personal spiritual journey as an example of what the potential is in going out of Materialism, and heading into Spirituality. Hoping to show that this transition is highly transformative. First where has this search taken me so far ? Regarding the story of our existence here it isn't that we just popped out of nowhere and found ourselves inside a universe (which also popped out of nowhere) and that we have no clue what happened except that there was a bang and Voila, everything is here ! Nope, it is that there is an amazing Entity that is very strange and yet loving and caring. It has decided to give us something very special: Freedom. And wanted to observe us to see what we do with this freedom. Will we start using the minds it gave us to become curious and ask whats going on, why are we here? What are we? What is a human? Or will we just copy what everyone around us is doing and do what they do. Will some of us be b...

Towards Spirituality for 21st Century UK

Why would anyone want to move the UK towards spirituality? Did we not get enough of it during the dark ages? Do we really want to go back to religion? What is wrong with our current path? I will attempt to answer all these questions in this article. Why Spirituality? By moving away from spirituality towards materialism we left something very important in life: Meaning.  We no longer could search for meaning to our life. To understand why we, as souls, have been sent here. And why we must leave this planet, and where do we go afterwards. This is what we lost by going to materialism (M). M sounds great, and full of fun, but in reality it turns us into meaningless objects that for some reason appear and then for another reason disappear. Is this really the reality of the situation? Is this the truth of our life ? Or is this simply how we wanted it to be. We decided that this is the truth and are now trying to live this projection. How has our life gone so far under this framework ...
