"Remember, that we are all brothers and sisters. 
All people, beasts, trees and stone and wind. 
We all descend from the holistic NEUTRAL CONSCIOUSNESS that was always there. 
Before people lived and named it. Before the first seed sprouted."
ALLAH is a Universal Computer Who can
Convey easily His Energy to every Dimension - Who Spreads Himself Out - Who Disperses Himself Out and
Who can even concentrate that Tremendous Power of His even on a single Point.

TECHNOLOGY
(TEKNOLOJI, in Turkish)
1 - TEK = This First triangle symbolizes God ("Tanri" in Turkish) - Universes ("Evrenier" in Turkish) and
the Almighty ("Kadiri Mutlak" in Turkish). You are, at the moment, Consciousnesses who are
being Educated by the Dimensions possessing the Reflection Order of the first triangle. Vibrations
after this are quite different.
2 - NOL= This Second triangle is the reflection Focal Point of the Dimension called, (Let there Be, lt
was). (In Turkish, "OL dedi Oldu"). That is, it is the ("Divine Light's (Let there be) Command"
{in Turkish, "Nur'un OL Emri"}).
3 - OJI = This is the Reflection Focal Point of the Third triangle. However, there is no Entrance to this
Totality yet. ALLAH had come into existence from this Dimension as a Triple Power. Let Us
disclose this a little more: (O) - is the (O) Whom You Know. (J) - Is the Unknown Power. (i) is the Concealed Power Potential within the Human Being ("insan" in Turkish) which Your Consciousness Totalities can not attain. Thus, ALLAH is a Powerful Totality of this triple Unity.

-Mystical experiences are an aspect of Islam. In Sufism, the mystical form of the religion, the focus is on achieving a direct, first-hand experience of God. This is known as dhawq or “tasting”. Tariqah (which translates as “path”) is a school of Sufism where adherents follow mystical teachings and practices in order to seek Haqiqa (“ultimate truth”). Dhawq and tariqah can involve a kind of spiritual ecstasy, a state of intoxication that occurs when the self is annihilated. This self-annihilation is known as fana) in Sufism. It means to die before one dies and entails the intimate realisation of God’s unity with the universe and the individual self. In psychedelic parlance, this would be referred to as ego death.

I'm just a crazy dude trying to figure out how to live and love a little better every day. 🤟⁣⁣ #Psychology #Philosophy #Technology
