The Ultimate Wireless Connection

The Ultimate Wireless Connection

October 10, 2019

I think human beings, generally, are greedy, selfish and messed up. Every once in a while I see something different. Take my 4-year-old, for instance, sometimes he shows such love and concern that it’s overwhelming. Don’t get me wrong, he wants a sword to kill bad guys and, sometimes, other kids (who bother him). So …

How I Found My Way of Life: Part 4

September 16, 2024

This is still being edited, but I feel compelled to publish this. Feel free to comment if you see anything that needs editing. I have since come to understand what the Quran means by “I make no distinction between the Creator’s prophets/messengers.” I also understand what Muhammad (PBUH) meant when he spoke against creating division. …

Holding on too tightly

Holding on too tightly

September 6, 2024

I am listening to a book by Suneel Gupta, Everyday Dharma. In the fourth chapter, he shares the story of the time he went on a week-long meditation retreat. It was going poorly for him, and he decided to leave. Before he could leave, a monk told him that the monastery’s abbot would like to …

It has been years since I have updated what I have begun to understand. Let’s go through it.

My Guidelines

My Guidelines

December 7, 2020

I have certain guidelines that have helped me determine the truth and they have come to me along the path of pursing this truth. I will try and add more as I remember them or simplify them if I find a way. I believe that our creator has already given us this “Rosetta Stone” to …

Lesson 1: Why “God” is not a god.

Lesson 1: Why “God” is not a god.

December 7, 2020

Simply put we have been taught that religions are a good thing. That, if you believe in a creator of the universe and a conscious, intelligent, omnipotent-omnipresent, and eternal entity that is aware of all we do, then you have to select from the plethora of choices. You have to join club and worship in …

Read Through: The Quran Retranslated

Read Through: The Quran Retranslated

June 4, 2020

I am reading the new translations by Dr. Kashif Khan you can find them at this blog. I found them so fascinating that I started to organize his site for him and help him upload posts. I want to restate what he has said. His articles are verbose and it’s clear that there is a …

Mythos: We & Them

Mythos: We & Them

January 17, 2020

You have been lied to about a lot of things. Today we are talking about divisions. We all live in this word of borders. Borders like religion: Roman Catholicism. With specific formulas, practices and procedures. Physical borders: clearly demarcated on maps verifiable by surveyors and GPS satellites hovering overhead, or even skin color: Like black …

Why we often fail under pressure.

Why we often fail under pressure.

December 20, 2019

I spoke about this concept with my wife. Stress narrows your focus. Great if you are running from a lion. Bad if you are in the modern world (Unless you are at a zoo… running from a lion) Since you don’t have the “pressure” of instant solution you will end up complicating the problem far …

How do I stop people from taking advantage of me?

How do I stop people from taking advantage of me?

December 19, 2019

That’s the question isn’t it? You are taught to be nice and kind to others in the hope that they will “do the right thing” you listen to a “friend’s” sob story and hold their hand. Stay up late into the night despite having commitment that you cannot miss early in the morning and what …

Update: What I have learned so far

Update: What I have learned so far

November 21, 2019

Peace. A lot has changed but I will run through it quickly. Through Khan’s translations (see links on the right) I have learned that a few things are vastly different. I will try and keep it short as possible to avoid errors but basically these are the guiding principles that create my practice. Not a …
