The Veiled Revealer

What is that thing through which we see everything? Light. What is that thing which in principle can never be seen? Light. What is light? Light is the dark revealer; itself veiled, it unveils everything else. And the light of this world is only the shadow of that Intelligible Light which shines in your dreamless … More The Veiled Revealer

Hell is the Other

The man of today is drowning in the ocean of subjectivity, in phenomena, falling for his own shadow, falling a second fall. By continuous feeding of our little desires we have made a mistress out of them; mental and physical needs become more subtle, and we have developed a consciousness for them; we have become … More Hell is the Other

The Overman

Much has been said of the coming of the Overman. The Overman doesn’t evolve; the Overman descends.

Pray for the unconcealment of that blessed moment in which His glance catches yours and annihilates all separation and duality, and all things merge in one eternal glance. You mad people of this age, with your heads cut … More Be Not

Sakina

This world is in the imagination of a King sitting on the throne. He wonders “what’s it like to be a subject,” and then he becomes a subject; he falls into the damned river of time and finds himself in a world. The King that rules the Void becomes the void, and he became the … More Sakina

To Know The Truth

Truth is not some sort of a “theory of everything” that science, or philosophy, may or may not someday discover; neither is the knowledge of Truth a theoretical apprehension of an object, a theory or otherwise, by the human subject. Rather, Truth and the knowledge of Truth are one and the same since It is … More To Know The Truth
