It has been decades since the Modern Sciences’ recognition of the unbroken and undivided wholeness of all things in the universe.
“It is an illusion to speak of consciousness and matter interacting with each other! Because the observer is the observed itself…”
This is the point of fact that the Science in our day has reached yet…
There can of course be considered objective (afaqi) “ASCENSION” (miraaj) of mind upon scientific information same as the inner reflective (anfusi) “ascension” of consciousness from individualism up to the COSMIC WHOLENESS…
If you would like it, come on let us now observe this “ascension” (miraaj) of Science with a closer viewing.
“Every region of space awash with different kinds of fields composed of waves of varying lengths…”
“Each wave always has at least some energy and a meaning…”
“It is an illusion to divide the universe up into living and nonliving things. Animate and inanimate matter are inseparably interwoven, and life, too, is enfolded throughout the totality of the universe.”
“The universe is an infinite ocean of energy and nothing is separate from this cosmic ocean of energy. Even, what we know as the nothingness and the pieces of matter do not exist independently from one another. They are both part of the same reality…”
“Every portion of the universe enfolds the whole…”
Here are even some more observations beyond all these:
“Despite its apparent materiality and enormous size, the universe does not exist in and of itself, but is the stepchild of something far vaster and more ineffable. It is not even a major production of this limitless and endless something, but is only a passing shadow of that deeper reality…”
Yes, these are some of the conclusions that Modern Physics has drawn with its data through its “miraaj”.
Besides, Neurophysics discovered the following:
“Physical senses of human function as somewhat an interpreter of frequencies.”
“For instance, something we perceive through eyes is not external realities of a world-out-there, but is the image of that thing on the surface of our eye-retinas. Yet our brains do not perceive that something as being on our retinas, they perceive it as being in the world-out-there.”
“In fact, our brains fool us into thinking that what we live as inner processes are located outside the body…”
“Physical objects perceived in our brains are nothing other than some information experienced in our minds which is more like a hologram.”
These are some explanations of researchers who share with us what science has just begun discovering about the universe and human brains.
The hardest part of all for most people is to understand the reality, which gives us the opportunity to handle all matters on a base, that everything is a limitless and whole Information in essence which is organized holographically.
Let those who commit to their memory what they are educated aside, in the eyes of contemporary science that seeks and finds out the reality, there is nothing else in the universe other than the limitless Information designed holographically, all things that are perceived as existent are nothing other than that Information observed through the senses of a perceiver.
The brain that observes the universe is somewhat an interpreter that that limitless hologram observes its own properties.
Far before the invention of hologram and Quantum Physics, numerous perceivers of reality known as Sufi thinkers had already glimpsed the nonlocal organization of the universe and had shared their experiences with us in their own unique ways of expressing their insight: They said “the universe is a MIRROR that ALLAH observes the beauty of HU in”.
The universe is an illusion in mirror though perceived as real, a mass of visible and the invisible things…
Why “Hologram” or “Mirror”?
Now let us dwell on this!
As you might have seen also, a hologram is a virtual image, an image that appears to be where it is not. The important feature of a hologram is that it creates the illusion that something is located physically where it is not! If you look at a hologram, it seems so convincingly to have extension in space and to fill a place as a locality! You can view it from different angles. But if you try to touch it with your hand, your hand will pass through where you observed the object and you will discover that there is nothing there really!
In a like manner, when you look in a mirror you see a three-dimensional image of yourself as well as all that is behind, beside and around you. There is no difference between what is right beside you or in your hands and what appears in the mirror you look in.
You can see your body, the room you walk in along with all the objects found therein right before your eyes. As if everything is located in a place behind a silvered glass, across the mirror’s back surface!
But…
Have you ever thought about how much space your body, all the objects and the room itself you are in filled in the locality behind the silvered glass and how much space they occupy in space, in actuality?
Your answer is:
“Nothing at all!”
They are there, but they possess no more extension in space than real “nothing”. They do not carry a size or a weight!
Now consider this:
What would you tell yourself if you experience that your body within which you live and through which you perceive everything, all the places you go, see and know, your world, the sky and the entire universe are all only illusions that your consciousness sees in a mirror even though you have not been aware of it before?
How would you meet the idea that the observer consciousness is on his own viewing the appearance of its own actuality? That is, the observed is the observer itself!
Here it is this warning about the reality of life that Sufism since the ancient ages and Modern Sciences in our day simplify and try to communicate with the world!
Such is the reality that every human being will encounter in the dimension of life entered upon the experience of death, that is the departure of one’s conscious soul from the physical body and beginning of life with a hologramlike (spiritual) wave body, when consciousness will be released from the limitations of the physical body and so from the illusion built by five senses’ limited perception.
The leader of those who “died when they are alive” signifies an important reality by saying “humans are asleep and they will be awakened with death”, a reality that people are not aware but they need to be aware simply because it applies to each one of us personally!
The one who informed us the reality denoted through the name “ALLAH” and the “DEEN” (Religion) of “ISLAM” at the sight of that reality is known as RasulAllah…
Rasul of Allah who proposes you to understand Allah’s System and Order and apply your understanding to your life in order that you may free your mind from that illusions, that sleep, that blindness…
They who chose the way of comforting themselves by saying that religion is a convenient list of commands sent by a Judge God from above by the agency of prophets that He choose from among the inhabitants of planet earth in order that He may improve the human race, are the ones who exist for the world of the five senses.
They who do not have a belief in what is referred to as “ALLAH” will never be able to access into the realm of life with the features within themselves, which are known to be belonged to the Universal Consciousness -that is the realm known as “Heaven”-, simply because of their denial and rejection of “themselves and the potent within themselves”.
They who do not recognize and follow the DEEN of ISLAM will find themselves burning in the life beyond death for their unawareness and failure in the world to appreciate and take advantage of the potent within themselves due to their living in conflict with the system and order of life and their unawareness of the Universal Consciousness as their own reality…
“Human being” who exists to recognize and KNOW himself with the values of the consciousness dimension beyond the limitations of the five senses will be able to rid himself from the perspectives and judgments of the environment and time he lives in, and will be able to aim at viewing every event he encountered from a universal perspective and live the effect of such a viewing as an individual of free-thinking!
The only way of freedom is in the recognition and the acceptance of the reality communicated through the name “ALLAH” and, as an effect of that acceptance, to evaluate life in connection with the realities of the DEEN of ISLAM (that is the absolute SYSTEM and ORDER in effect)!
Needless to say, “there is nothing for a human other than what he could achieve” and there is not and will not be a Judge God ever that one would make an EXCUSE for one’s loss or failure when he had a brain in this world!
