Stoner Mufti

Stoner Mufti, high opinions on doubtful matters and immatters // حُلول الحالِّ والمُحال....

Seriously parodic!

[Stoner Mufti @StonerMufti]

Older #generation is wiser, but the #younger one is more #visionary (avg.).

One leans on #memories of the past, while the other taps into their vision of the future; hence the #conflict!

Stay on the #path of your #vision while respecting #wisdom, on this ever-swinging pendulum.

[Stoner Mufti @StonerMufti]

Wisdom of the Past & Vision of the Future:
- Learn from the #past memories to get better #wisdom
- Anticipate the #future to builds better #vision

Here & Now:
- Keep adjusting your #balance of the 2, the ever-growing wisdom & vision;
- Live mindfully & meaningfully; #here & #now

May also be a correlation between the word Charya (to follow/move - as in #Brahmacharya) & #Shariah (linguistically: the path to be followed, way to the water). #Brahma to #Ibrahim...etc.

#Words transform over timespace, and their meanings evolve & adapt to local contexts.

Is Abraham Brahma? Or Is Brahma Abraham?
(A Thread)

Have you ever noticed that Abraham and his wife Sarah of the monotheistic Judeo-Christian and Moslem religions are nearly identical in name to Brahma and his wife Saraswati of the Hindu religion?

To understand duality, imagine an electrical switch: there's one switch, but two states (on/off duality).

Yet, a switch matters only if there's a switcher (observer). Otherwise, neither/both states co-exist & they remain immaterial.

Plato Rules Today!

He argued for Systemic Philosopher Kings. Today, that includes the PhDs.

Largest PhD Employer -> Google.
Highest # of PhD Economists -> Federal Reserve.

Both rule the World today.

Life is serious, looking forward, and amusing, looking backwards... and it's perfect when you figure that part out ;)

@IslamicTongue When one 'understands' death, they are no longer fearful of life either.

[Stoner Mufti @StonerMufti]

@ApostateRidvan Alternatively, they may also reject him if he says that what became today of Islam or Muslims is not what he taught, meant or intended.

He may even argue that what turned out of Muslims today is what he often warned against.

If we are considering various possibilities, that is.

[Stoner Mufti @StonerMufti]

@likeplastic_ Be kinder to yourself and others. Not everyone has the same path to arrive at a similar conclusion.

Also recall that you too may have had a strong opinion about a certain subject that turned out to be wrong, and, at the time, no book would have changed your mind either.

[Stoner Mufti @StonerMufti]

@AlMaarri1 @YasMohammedxx That's an exaggerated statement. Albeit, that's true for many prominent/predominant views and readings of #Quran.

However, it is also possible for empathetic #Muslims to have a different/new view & reading of Quran than the predominant.

E.g. A #psychedelic-enabled reading.

[Stoner Mufti @StonerMufti]

@likeplastic_ Essentially, it's the comparison of digital (bits/discrete/quantized) vs. analog (continous/smooth).

I.e. words, on their own, are singular and defined, yet, the ways words are put together are infinite.

Per #Chomsky, #language is the only such natural system.

Tho, off-topic.

[Stoner Mufti @StonerMufti]

#Questions are an #entrapment of sorts. Yet, as you find better #answers, you craft your better questions still.

Note that the phrasing of the question itself #reveals more than the answers it seeks & shows the level of #awareness one has attained.

Go from #freer -> #free.

[Stoner Mufti @StonerMufti]

The dominant/#victorious may write some #history, but the truly #awakened can write their own #future.

[Stoner Mufti @StonerMufti]

When confronted with an overwhelming situation, one may start with either a #freeze (overload) response, or with an instinctive response of a #fight/ #flight.

However, it is possible to ascend that and to be in state of #flow as well, but that takes #meditation and dedication.

For you, is your predominant #life/#living more #art or more #science? Or have you found the perfect sweet spot: an #artistic science or a #scientific art?

#Evermind seeks the sweet spot...
