When you try to seek a path, the only thing to do is sincerely look at Islam and the Quran. What the Quran is essentially saying to humanity is, Allah (SWT) created you for a purpose.
This document summarizes Alex Collier's presentation about his contact experiences with the Andromedans and their views on an upcoming period of transformation for humanity. The Andromedans believe that open contact with extraterrestrials requires discernment, as not all aliens have humanity's best interests at heart. They warn that some may offer gifts but later turn on humanity. The Andromedans are now discussing mentoring humanity as it transitions to a galactic society. This mentorship would involve introducing humanity to its true history and potential technologies to empower people, but it is not about rescue - it is to show humanity its possibilities and initiate its integration into a larger galactic family.
The document argues that the Christian God cannot logically exist based on contradictions in how God is defined. It provides examples of how Christianity and other religions were likely started by humans for control and how their stories are copied from older myths. While one cannot prove that God doesn't exist, the document asserts that believers bear the burden of proof in establishing God's existence due to logical flaws and contradictions in the concept of God.
The document discusses God's creation plan for humanity according to Western philosophy. It states that man seems mismatched for this world based on his unlimited potential and desires that are never fulfilled. However, God created man and this world according to a plan where this world is meant as a test, and those who pass will be rewarded in Paradise after death. The document provides further explanation of Paradise and what is required to qualify, which is acknowledging truth and leading a principled life during the test of this world.
This document contains excerpts from a film or presentation discussing various topics related to origins and science such as assumptions, interpretations of data, Darwin, geology, natural selection, rapid formation of geological features, hybridization, and more. Several speakers provide commentary critiquing neo-Darwinian evolution and common assumptions while also addressing biblical creation.
Aliens, demons, nephilim, time travel,and God Богдан Шевчук
This document provides an overview of complex topics related to aliens, demons, Nephilim, and God's role in the end times. It discusses how:
1) These topics are all interlinked and point back to Jesus Christ. Understanding them is important for Christians facing challenges to their faith.
2) Entities described as UFOs may actually be interdimensional, not extraterrestrial. The government has known about this for some time.
3) A "great delusion" involving these topics will be sent by God, as described in the Bible. Understanding Satan's deception tactics is key to interpreting information from varied sources.
4) God's actions, while difficult to understand, represent "

This is the A.I. or material intellect functioning on universal cybernetic principles (the Ouroboros, Saturn's Ring). Man's lower mind or carnal mind (Romans 8:7-9).

"Those who don't work shall not eat" is the direct result of agriculture and the basis of our universal enslavement. The Grim Reaper as symbol for Saturn combines the images of death (the programmed aging process) and of agriculture (the scythe). We are blackmailed to participate in our own demise through our need to buy food. Entire empires are built on this basic extortion, on the denial of paradise, the denial of a life free of charge. The brutal denial of paradise by conditioning the masses of people to freely submit to this satanic reality and to believe in the worldly power structures, the dead buildings with spiritually dead people inside that are controlling our lives (in Tarot the external world is the devil, also symbolized by a self-destroying Ouroboros). The market is the warzone in which mankind competes against itself for the illusion of money, because no awareness of unity or love or freedom exists on this planet...

So it describes "you" as you are "at this moment"! It describes a still unaware "living creature", which is usually only a self-aggrandizing and therefore very short-sighted "dumb dictator" of his own existence, although it is actually a Child of God!
"NOT TO BE" is your unaware perpetual cycle through rebirth, conflict resolution, and death. "Non-existence" means "to always wanting to bite in one's own tail".

The article discusses using a functional analysis approach to understand social media's role in organizations. It defines social media's functions as relationship management, community building, and brand management. Relationship management involves interacting with stakeholders. Community building facilitates interaction among stakeholders. Brand management shapes perceptions of the organization. The author argues this framework can help organizations optimize their social media strategies.
This document discusses arguments for and against the existence of God. It begins by outlining how most people in the world believe in a supernatural being called God. It then discusses how God's existence cannot be proven through the senses like a physical object. Some argue that only empirical knowledge is possible for humans, gained through the senses, but the document counters that there may be forms of existence beyond human perception. Several analogies and examples are provided to argue that order, design and complexity in nature point to an intelligent creator. The document also shares stories where Islamic scholars provide logical arguments and examples to prove God's existence to skeptics.

This document discusses racial profiling by law enforcement. It notes that several studies have found evidence that racial minorities like Blacks, Hispanics, and Middle Eastern people are more likely to be stopped, searched, and arrested by police than white people. However, some scholars argue these differences may be justified if minorities are more involved in criminal activities. The document also mentions a study by the New York Attorney General that found evidence of racial profiling in New York City. It aims to outline various studies, incidents, facts, and statistics around this issue of racial profiling and how it can undermine trust in law enforcement.
The document provides instructions for the first two steps in becoming a Bringer of the Light according to the book. Step 1 is to get clear on the purpose of one's life by writing statements answering "The purpose of life in general is..." and "The purpose of my life is...". Step 2 is to translate the purpose statements from "doingness" to "beingness", as a Bringer of Light must understand the difference between doing and being. The instructions emphasize deciding one's own life purpose without looking to others for the answer.

Karma yoga chapter v we help ourselves, not the world.Ravi Ramakrishnan
Swami #Vivekananda Bengali: , Shāmi Bibekānondo; 12 January 1863 – 4 July 1902), born #Narendranath Datta, was an Indian Hindu monk, a chief disciple of the 19th-century Indian mystic Ramakrishna. He was a key figure in the introduction of the Indian philosophies of# Vedanta and #Yoga to the Western world and is credited with raising #interfaith awareness, bringing Hinduism to the status of a major world religion during the late 19th century. He was a major force in the revival of Hinduism in India, and contributed to the concept of nationalism in colonial India. Vivekananda founded the #Ramakrishna Math and the Ramakrishna Mission. He is perhaps best known for his speech which began, "Sisters and brothers of America ...," in which he introduced Hinduism at the Parliament of the World's Religions in Chicago in 1893.
Born into an aristocratic Bengali family of Calcutta, Vivekananda was inclined towards spirituality. He was influenced by his Guru, Ramakrishna Deva, from whom he learnt that all living beings were an embodiment of the divine self; therefore, service to God could be rendered by service to mankind. After Ramakrishna's death, Vivekananda toured the Indian subcontinent extensively and acquired first-hand knowledge of the conditions prevailing in British India. He later traveled to the United States, representing India at the 1893 Parliament of the World Religions. Vivekananda conducted hundreds of public and private lectures and classes, disseminating tenets of Hindu philosophy in the United States, England and Europe. In India, Vivekananda is regarded as a patriotic saint and his birthday is celebrated there as National Youth Day.
You, I and every other human being on this planet are almost infinitely more capable than we think is possible. The human brain has capabilities that we are only beginning to understand and use, and our untapped abilities would allow us to do things that we cannot even imagine at present. This is not an idle claim. It is not some shallow pump-up speech that I want to use to get you hyped. It is a belief that I hold based on the years of personal and literary research I have conducted.
I began with the assumption that there must be more to life than the prescriptive "How to Study" books that I found on library shelves, but I found nothing written for students that went beyond these. I thought that there must be some strategies that I could use to my advantage. What I needed were options, as many as I could find. I knew from experience that there is never only one way to do something well. I knew that some things work for certain people and not others. I wanted information and methods that would help me become better today, and that would grow with me into my future.
In other words, I wanted to know if and how I could be excellent. Was I really a composite of the labels that had been used to describe me? Was I really a poor learner? Average? Satisfactory? Good? Inattentive? Disruptive? Did that mean that I was supposed to be like these descriptions for the rest of my life, or was it just someone else's impression of me? Could I experience a life that would be inconceivably rewarding even though my grades weren't? Would it be possible for me to live a worthwhile life? These were the questions that I really wanted answered. Why were these questions not being addressed?
I have eventually found some of the answers to these questions and I offer them to you. I offer you a very simple starting point. The modern human being, with the assistance of technology, has access to more information now than at any time in human history. Yet, even in our present enlightened state, our ignorance of what truly goes on around us is mind-boggling. The incredible human mind at age 5 can ask questions that it still cannot answer at age 75, even after a lifetime of searching for an answer. There is still much that the human being is capable of learning and understanding. Why then do we know and understand so little about ourselves and the world we live in?
It is possible for you to become more intelligent, or even a genius. It is possible even if you were told by an expert that you do not have what it takes. I offer such an unqualified statement because I believe there is much more to us that the experts are telling us. In fact, it is quite shocking how little is known about human potential. When asked why the little girl or boy grows up to be a dancer, politician, businessperson, or criminal, experts in human behaviour have many after-the-fact answers.

This document discusses Paulo Freire's theory of oppression and liberation from oppression as outlined in his book Pedagogy of the Oppressed. It applies his concepts to the novels The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, Year of Wonders by Geraldine Brooks, and Native Son by Richard Wright. Freire believed liberation involves accepting the oppressor, activism, fellowship, solidarity, and reflection. The document analyzes how characters in the novels use self-reflection and education to identify and overcome forms of personal and societal oppression.
This document is a chapter from Thomas Troward's book "The Edinburgh Lectures on Mental Science". The chapter discusses the relationship between spirit and matter. It argues that spirit is defined by thought, while matter is defined by form. It also discusses how intelligence decreases on a scale from humanity to inanimate matter. The highest level of intelligence is found in a being with the ability to consciously direct its own evolution through individual willpower.
Is our purpose in this world, simply to eat, sleep, dress, work, acquire some material gains and enjoy ourselves? Is it our purpose? Why are we born? What is the object of our existence and what is the wisdom behind the creation of man and this tremendous universe? Think about that question.
Purpose of Life is a thought provoking talk by Sheikh Khalid Yasin. Through the verses of the Noble Qur’an, Shaykh Khalid Yasin expounds upon the creation of the universe and this amazing world we live in – and how it came to be. With his logical style of argument, the Shaykh answers these questions with much wisdom. It forces a logical mind to stop for a while and think where we are heading with our lives.

Introduction to the nature of intelligence, this is the intelligence of all multi-verses spiral-universes or whatever there may be—all united by a single intelligence—the singularity. If we stop for a moment without any thoughts, here it is—right here.
The document provides a summary of a talk given by Shaykh Fadhlalla Haeri on the topics of personal transformation, spiritual awakening, and finding inner peace and balance in life. Some key points discussed include the need for humans to transcend materialism and reconnect with their spiritual roots. The talk emphasizes that outer rituals in religions must lead to inner transformation, and that achieving a state of inner security and well-being requires balancing our outer and inner lives.
William Swygard´s Awareness Techniques are a set of tools, of spiritual technologies, that easily grant access to higher states of consciousness. This mystical state is characterized by a direct link to all/universal knowledge. It grants/give knowledge on all things, on all the creation and clear vision into the present, the past and the future.
Does God Exist? A question that even atheists spend a lot of time on, having concluded already that there is no God. Hava look at the framework of a lesson I put togther to explore the question.
The document provides a summary of key points from a book that aims to promote belief in God and debunk evolution. It discusses looking for answers, debunks evolution in 3 pages with pictures, provides "food for thought" on topics like the flood and Tower of Babel, and shares stories of allegedly fossilized modern artifacts like a cowboy boot and sandal print to cast doubt on scientific dating of fossils. The overall tone is one of questioning mainstream scientific views and promoting intelligent design.
This document provides an introduction and table of contents for a course on quantum jumping. The introduction discusses the concept of parallel universes and dimensions according to leading physicists. It states that there are infinite parallel universes where anything that can be imagined exists, including alternate versions of oneself. The instructor, Burt Goldman, then explains that after decades of research, he has discovered a method for communicating with and learning from parallel selves in order to improve one's life. The table of contents outlines the course, which will teach participants alpha exercises and techniques to access dimensions where their parallel selves are more successful and satisfied.

Naturalism is a philosophy that encourages embracing the human body and learning what it can do. The document discusses several perceived benefits of naturalism, including increased freedom and acceptance of oneself and others.

The document provides a summary of key points from a book that aims to promote belief in God and debunk evolution. It discusses looking for answers, debunks evolution in 3 pages with pictures, provides "food for thought" on topics like the flood and Tower of Babel, and shares stories of allegedly fossilized modern artifacts like a cowboy boot and sandal print to cast doubt on scientific dating of fossils. The overall tone is one of questioning mainstream scientific views and promoting intelligent design.
This document provides an introduction and table of contents for a course on quantum jumping. The introduction discusses the concept of parallel universes and dimensions according to leading physicists. It states that there are infinite parallel universes where anything that can be imagined exists, including alternate versions of oneself. The instructor, Burt Goldman, then explains that after decades of research, he has discovered a method for communicating with and learning from parallel selves in order to improve one's life. The table of contents outlines the course, which will teach participants alpha exercises and techniques to access dimensions where their parallel selves are more successful and satisfied.

1. The Purpose of Life
Humanityhasprogressedandevolvedmuchoverthe centuriesinthe fieldof technological
developmentincludingthe sciencespertainingtoall aspectsof life,especiallyinthe realmsof sciences
and studiesthathave todo withthe medical andwellbeing of humans,still there are some questions
that have gnawedat the verycore of humanbeingssince the dawnof time be it consciouslyor
unconsciously.The issuesof the metaphysicshave alwaysbeenthere toplague the wakingrational
thoughtsof the human creature that pridessomuchin itsintellect.Itisamongthese questionsthatthe
mostthoughtone of by people of all walksof life is whatisthepurposeof human existence?
For centuriesnowphilosophersandthinkers,the socalledintellectsof the specieshave beendebating
thisissue andare still desperatelyseekingthe answerof the reasontowhyhumansexist.Especially
afterthe advancementinspace travel andthe studiesof the almostinfiniteuniversearoundus,the
questionof whatsucha small andminute specieslike usdoingamongall these gargantuancelestial
bodieshasonlygottenstronger.There are those thathave takenthe route of philosophytoanswerthis
question,some wenttowardsthe wayof science.Tomany people thesetwoare the onlylogical
podiumsfromwhichananswercan be found,butwhattheydon’trealize isthatthere isa thirdtype of
understanding.Thisquestionhasalreadybeenansweredinthe lightof religion.
FindingthePath
Perhapsone of the thingsthat mostpeople whoare notreligioustendthe hardesttobelieve isthatthe
sense of findingtheirpurposeinlifeandwhytheyare here comesbuiltinthem.Letus now take a
commonexample.Consideraman whohas spenthislife ineverykindof indulgence inhislife,anditis
verycommonto findthat evenamongthose thathave all theycan inthis life,theystill feel like thereisa
voidintheirveryexistence,the feelingthatsomethingisindeedmissing.There comesatime inalmost
everyperson’slifewhenhe orshe decidestogetseriousregardingwhattheyare doinghere.Butthe
mainobstacle thattheyrun intofrom the start is,whenthere are so manypaths,how do theyfind
whichisthe right one and howto followit.
The ThoughtProcess ofSomeone Comingto the Right Conclusions
There are seldomanykindsof people thatthinkthatthere isnota purpose behindthe creationof this
world.Eventhe greatestmindsof science andphilosophy,eventhoughttheymightoppose the concept
of a higherbeing,tend toleantowardsthere beingareasonwhywe have come intoexistenceandthe
verythoughtthat humansjustcame intobeingandwill eventuallydie doesnotsitwiththembecause in
thisvast universe,thatistoobigand obscure of a coincidence tobe takenseriously. Humanscoming
intobeingare no coincidence andmostpeople alreadyacknowledge thatthere isapurpose behind
thembeinghere.Nomatterwhatthe beliefsof the person,he orshe cannotdenythe intricate detail of
our verydesigndowntoour fingernailsisamazing,whichmeansthatthese thingscouldn’thave been
createdwithoutanagendabehindthem.
2. Gratitude& Appreciation
One characteristicof decencyisgratitude.If a personhelpsyoufix yourcar tire,itishuman decencyto
thankthem.It will be highlyindecentof youandinappropriate of youtoleave withoutthankingthe
individual’shelptoyou.Humandecencyiscommonamongall the religions.Whenyourealizethatyou
have a creator, yourealize He hascreatedyou insuch a perfectwayand givenyoucharacteristicsthat
He has notgiventoother creatures,He hasalso givenyouall of these facultiesthatare amazingthatwe
didnot evenhave topay for,such as our eyesandhands etc.and on top of all these thingsHe has given
us sustenance,likethe waterwe drinkthe airwe breathe andthe foodwe eat,the familythatwe enjoy,
the house that we live inetc.All of these thingsare justpouredonus andgivento usfor free,soit is
onlynatural that ineverydecentperson orinany personinfact, somewhereintheirmindthere will be
a thoughtof at leastbeinggrateful forall thattheyhave.Itis amazingto see oftenthateventhose that
are notreligious,whensomethinggoodhappenstothem, theytendto ThankGod fortheirgoodluck.
Alongwitha sense of gratitude,there isalsoasense of appreciation. Meaningthe Creatordidnotonly
helpus,He helpedusinsucha profoundway.The vastnessof the universe,the flawlessness’of the sky
above amongcountlessotherthings,willfill apersonwithawe atthe greatpowerof thisCreator.
WhoCan Tell Usour Purpose?
The questionthenarises,whoisthe bestpersontotell usof our purpose.Asan example,anyperson
whomanufacturessomethingmanufacturesitfora reason.Whenhumansdesignsomething,they
designitfora purpose.Sowhenapersonacknowledgesthe factthat the Creatorhas createdus with
such intellectandfeatures,the questionsarise,whatisourpurpose andwhocan tell usthat purpose.If
youcan’t figure outa device thatyou bought,yougo back to the manufacturertolearnaboutit.
Similarly,if youcan’tunderstandyourpurpose inlife,youhave togoback to your Creatorbecause He is
the one who designedyou.
Anotherpowerful conclusionthatpeople come toafteracknowledgingtheirCreatoris,upuntil that
pointintheirlife,howeveroldtheyare,theyhave beeninviolationof theirpurpose because theydid
not evenknowwhatitwas.
For example,if youhave acomputerthatdoesnot performitsfunctionsaccordingtowhatyou require,
it crashesand haserrors,you can easilythrow itaway.You ownit,you boughtitfor a purpose, andit
didnot fitthat purpose soyougot rid of it. If a farmerhad gottena cow for milk,andthenthe cow
stoppedgivinghimmilk,he wouldjustslaughterit.
So nowwe come to the conclusion,thatyouwere createdfora purpose,there isaLord overyou that
expectyoutofill yourpurpose,butforthe last whateveryearsof yourlife youhave beenviolati ngthat
purpose because youdidnotevenknowit,didthatLord punishyoufor it?For example,one purposeof
humansisnot to lie.Diditeverhappenthatwhenyoulied,lightningstruckandburnedyourtongue>if
youeverstole,didyourhandjustsuddenlyfall off?Everytime youengagedinsomethingevil,didyou
experience punishmentimmediately?Of course not,because the Creatorletsyougo,He keepsletting
3. your transgressionsslide.Humanbeingsare notlike that,if we expectsomethingfromsomeone,we
make sure we get itand if we don’tget itwe tendto manifestnegative consequencesforthatperson.
Now That YouHave Realized
So youagree that youwere inviolationof yourpurpose,andthatthisLord is far more merciful than
anyone else inthe universe,Hismercyisunimaginable.Butnow there comesanotherpoint.Since you
have realizedthatyouhave a purpose andsince youdidnot know it,youhave beengettingawaywithit
all thistime,shouldyoujustforgetaboutit?No,because if youhave reachedthisfar inyour thought,
youshouldknowthat the Creatoralsoknowsthat youhave reacheda pointwhere yourealize you
shouldbe lookingforyourpurpose.Suffice tosaythat if youstop here,andthinkthat youare thinking
to deepanddecide togo back to youroldway of life,thenknow thisthatthere will be consequences.
The Next Step
Nowthat youhave realizedthis,the nextstepisyouturnto thisCreatorthat youdon’tyet know and
youdeclare one thing to yourCreator,‘IacknowledgethatYouaremy Creator, Iacknowledgethat Iam
supposed to bein service to You, I acknowledgethatin thislife I haveto live up to Your purposethat
Youhavesetforme, but, I cannotfill that purposeon my own becauseI don’tknow whereto start,so
even if I wantto serve You,howwill I do so unless You help me.’
ThoughtProcess
So let’sgooverthe thoughtprocessagain:
1. Firstthere wasGratitude & Appreciation.
2. Secondthere wasHis amazingMercy thatHe letyouslide solong.
3. Thenthere wasthe ideathere are consequencesif youdon’tgetyouract together.
4. Thenthere isthe factthat you turn tothe Creatorinsubmissionandworship,butyouneedHis
help,youneedguidance anddirections.
So youask Him forguidance andfor the straightway.Thenyoucome to anotherconclusion,if He isso
merciful,youcan’tbe the onlyone whohad wantedguidance.Thismusthave happenedbefore.There
musthave beenpeople before youthataskedforthisguidance andwere givenit. Soinsteadof being
leftonyour own,youask Himto showyou a path that otherpeople have alreadywalkedthatthe
Creatorfavoredupon.Thenthere are people whoaskedforthatpath but didnotgo on it,for example if
youask a personforthe rightdirections,thatpersongivesittoyoubut youdon’tfollow those
directions,thatpersonwhoaskedforguidance,gotitandthendisregardedit,thatisa personwith
whomthe Creator wouldbe veryangrywithand isa personwhodeservesHis wrath.
So whatwas the purpose of explainingthisthoughtprocesstoyou?The reasonforgoingthroughthis
route is because;thisisthe THOUGHT PROCESSOFTHE QURAN,IN THE FIRSTSURAH. The veryfirst
surah of the Quran is actuallythe thought processof someone seekingthe truth.
Surah Fatihaandthe Purpose of Life
4. We Recite:
All praise is due to Allah,Lord ofthe WorldsO
So we talkedaboutpraise andgratitude.Thenwe recite,
The entirelyMerciful,the EspeciallyMerciful O
Thiswas the part where ourLord is Merciful.Afterthiswe recite,
Master of the Day of Recompense (Judgment) O
We acknowledgedthatthere will be consequencesif we triedtotake advantage of Hismercy.Thenwe
Talkedaboutreachingthe conclusionthatwe wantto worshipHim, sowe recite,
It is Youwe worshipandYou we ask for help O
We acknowledgethatwe worshiponlyHim, butwe alsoneedHishelp.Whatisthe exacthelpwe seek?
Guidance,sointhe verynextverse we recite,
Guideus to the straight path – O
Guide usto and alongthe straightpath. Thenwe acknowledge thatwe are notalone on thispathand
there have beenthose whowalkedthispathbefore usthatthe Lordfavoredand notof those who
earnedHiswrath andnot those whowentastray.So we in the endrecite,
The pathof those uponwhom Youhave bestowed favor,not those whohave evoked [Your] angeror
of those are astray. O
Logic ofthe Path
Thisthoughtprocessiswhat we as Muslimsaskpeople toconsiderforthispathis universal.If youhave
noticedwhile readingthis,we didnottake adirectapproach to the Quran fromthe beginning,rather
the focuswas on makingpeople understandandappreciate the logicof the thoughtprocessfirst.The
mainpointisto be sincere toour CreatorAllah(SWT),be grateful toHim, acceptHim as yourLord,
worshipHimand askhimfor guidance.Forthose that are seekingthistruth,there are twomeasuring
sticks,
1. Your ownconscience.
2. If you acknowledge thatthe truthandguidance youseekisfromAllah(SWT) (God),thenthe
primarystandardis that there can be no one betweenyouandthe worshipof Allah(SWT).
There can be those whomAllah(SWT) hasfavoredand fromwhomyoucan learnhow to
worshipAllah(SWT) andreachthat path,but youcannot worshipthem.
5. Withthisstandard whenyoutry to seekapath, the onlythingwe humblyaskyouto do issincerelylook
at Islamand the Quran. What the Quran isessentiallysayingtohumanityis, Allah (SWT) created you for
a purpose.
Allah (SWT) sayingin the Quran Surah Adh-Dhariyat Ayah 51:56
And I did notcreate the jinn and mankind exceptto worship Me.
