It is the Duty of every conscious and loving Moorish American / Moorish Scientist to study and re-study themselves and the ancient text of this plane of existence; them namely being the Moorish Holy Koran, the Holy Qur’an, the Torah, the Injiyl and the many other holy scripts that contain divine guidance and instruction, to gain spiritual insight and greater perception with his/her own capacity of divine understanding. With the aims of attaining a greater degree of knowledge while in contemplation and reflection, the adept must then utilize their outer and inner enlightened experience to instruct others while sharing with them the vision and the concepts of higher thought patterns for the understanding of Allah’s greater plan which resulted from intense contact with the finer planes of vibration. Every spiritual instruction manual, especially the Moorish Holy Koran, the Qur’an of Mecca, the Injiyl and the Torah, after being read and studied with the intuitive faculties and with spirit guided intellect; the adept learns the path to Unity, self mastery and the Throne of Mercy (sarir al-rahmaniyya). The initiate seeking admittance in the science of Allah “Unity” and the mysteries of self mastery is required to study all of the ancient and sacred text sent to the Earth plane to ensure that a greater understanding of Allah is attained as opposed to partial knowledge of the great and universal creator: Allah. This divine concept is supported by the Moorish Holy Koran - 10:18 “Man names the part of Allah he sees, and this to him is all of Allah; and every nation sees a part of Allah, and every nation has a name for Allah.” To ensure a full and wholistic understanding of the primordial science of Allah, man “must” study “all” of the scriptures, in full, to solidify an all encompassing vision of the coordinates to Allah. This is further validated in the Holy Qur’an of Mecca in the following degrees:

  • The Holy Qur’an Surah 3:3 “It is He who sent down to thee (step by step), in truth, the Book, Confirming what went before it; and He sent down the Law (of Moses) and the Gospel (of Jesus).”
  • The Holy Qur’an Surah 3:84 “Say: We believe in Allah, and in what has been revealed to us and what was revealed to Abraham (Suhuf-i-Ibrahim), Ishmail, Issac, Jacob, and the tribes, and in (the Books) given to Moses (Torah), Jesus (Al Injiyl), and the Prophets, from their Lord: We make no destinction betwee one and another among them, and to Allah do we bow our will (in Islam).”

The Philosophy of IlluminationThe following text represent insight into the primordial science of the “Upright” - that ancient and original science that existed prior to idols and forms. Man is on an upward and inward ascension to Allah and is “doomed to perfection” for Allah is his/her destiny. Read the following passages to gain greater understanding regarding 1) the journey of origin and return and 2) the universality of the degrees of Allah.

THE INTRODUCTORY COMMENTARY OF THE HOLY QUR’AN

“Glory to Allah Most High, full of Grace and Mercy; He created all, including Man. To Man He gave a special place in His Creation. He honored man to be His Agent, and to that end, endured him with understanding. Purified his affections, and gave spiritual insight; so that man should understand Nature, understand himself, and know Allah through His wondrous Signs, and glorify Him in Truth, reverence, and unity.

For the fulfillment of this great trust, Man was further given Will, so that his acts should reflect Allah’s universal Will and Law, and his mind, freely choosing, should experience the sublime joy of being in harmony with the Infinite, and with the great drama of the world around him, and with his own spiritual growth.

But, created though he was in the best of molds, man fell from unity when his Will was warped, and he chose the crooked path of discord; and sorrow and pain, selfishness and degradation, ignorance and hatred, despair and unbelief poisoned his life, and he saw shapes of evil in the physical, moral and spiritual world, an in himself.

Then did his soul against himself, and his self-discord made discord between kith and kin: Men began to fear the strong and oppress the weak, to boast in prosperity, and curse in adversity; and to flee each other, pursuing phantoms, for the truth and reality of Unity was gone from their minds.

When men spread themselves over the Earth, and became many nations, speaking diverse languages, and observing customs and laws; the evils became multiplied, as one race of nations became alienated from another. The brotherhood of Man was now doubly forgotten ” First, between individuals, and secondly, between nations. Arrogance, selfishness, and untruth were sown and reaped in larger fields; and Peace, Faith, Love and Justice (Love, Truth, Peace, Freedom, and Justice) were obscured over masses of men, as larger tracts of land were starved of sunshine by clouds floating far on high.

But Allah, in his infinite mercy and love, who forgives and guides individuals and nations, and turns to good even what seems to us evil, never forsakes the struggling soul that turns to Him, nor the groups of men and women who join together to obey His Will and Law, and strengthen each other in unity and truth, nor the nations that dwell in mountain and valley, heat and cold, in regions fertile or arid, in societies that roam over land or seas, or hunt, tend to flock, or till the soil, or seek the seas for food or oil or fat or gems, or dig our from the bowels of the Earth precocious stones or metals or stored-up heat and energy, or practice arts and crafts, or produce abundant wealth by machines of ingenious workmanship, or live a frugal life of contemplation: for all are creatures of One God, and share His loving care and must be brought within the pale of His eternal unity and harmony.

And so this light of eternal Unity has shone in all ages and among all nations, through chosen Messengers of Allah, who came as men to dwell among men, to share their joys and sorrows, to suffer for them and with them ” Aye, and to suffer more than falls to ordinary mortal lot ” that so their message and their life might fulfill the eternal and unchanging purpose of the Most High ” to lead man to his noblest destiny.

Ever this eternal light of Unity, this mystic light of Allah’s own will, has shone and shines with undiminished splendor. The names of many messengers are inscribed in the records of many nations and many tongues, and many were the forms in which their message was delivered, according to the needs of them times and the understanding of the people; and manifold were the lives of the Messengers, and manifold also was the response of their people; but they all witness the One Truth: of Allah’s unity, might, grace and love.

As the records of man are imperfect, and the memory of man unstable: the names of many of these messengers are known in one place and not in, or among one people and not among others; and some of their names may have perished utterly; but their message stands one and indivisible, even though it may have been forgotten, or twisted by ignorance, error, superstition or perversity; or misunderstood in the blinding light of time or tortuous circumstances.

Many were the faiths in the composite world of Western Asia, Northern Africa and Europe, and many were the fragments of ancient wisdom, saved, transformed, renewed, or mingled; and many new streams of wisdom were poured through the crucibles of noble minds ” prophets, poets, preachers, philosophers, and thinking men of action; and many were the conflicts, and may the noble attempts reaching out towards Unity, and many were the subtle influences interchanged with the other worlds of further and Eastern Asia - Aye, and perchance with the scattered Isles of the Pacific and the world between the Atlantic and the Pacific.

At length came the time when the Voice of Unity should speak and declare to the people; without the need of Priests or Priest-craft, without miracles except those that happen now and always in the spiritual world, without mystery, except those mysteries which unfold themselves in the growing inner experience of man and his vision of Allah ” to declare with an unfaltering voice the Unity of Allah, the Brotherhood of Man, and Grace and Mercy, Bounty and Love, Poured out in unstinted measure forever and ever….” - From the Introductory Commentary of the Holy Qur’an

THE MOORISH HOLY KORAN (CHAPTER 1)

“Time never was when man was not.” If life of man at any time began, a time would come when it would end. “The thoughts of Allah cannot be circumscribed. No finite mind can comprehend things infinite. All finite things are subject unto change. All finite things will cease to be because there was a time when they were not.” The bodies and the souls of men are finite things, and they will change, yea, from the finite point of view the time will come when they will be no more. “But man himself is not the body, nor the soul; he is a spirit and a part of Allah.” Creative Fate gave to man, to spirit-man, a soul that he might function on the plane of soul; gave him a body of the flesh, that he might function on the plane of things made manifest. Why did creative Fate give to spirit-man a soul that he might function on the plane of soul? Why did creative Fate give to soul a body of the flesh that he might function on the plane of things that are made manifest?

["Hear, now, ye worlds, dominions, powers and thrones!]

Hear, now, ye cherubim, ye seraphim, ye angels and ye men!

“Hear, now, oh protoplast, and earth, and plant and beast!

“Hear, now, ye creeping things of earth, ye fish that swim, ye birds that fly!

“Hear, now, ye winds that blow, ye thunders and ye lightnings of the sky!

“Hear, now, ye spirits of the fire, of water, earth, and air!

“Hear, now, oh everything that is, or was, or evermore will be, for Wisdom speaks from out of the highest plane of spirit life:

“Man is a thought of Allah; all thoughts of Allah are infinite; they are not measured up by time, for things that are concerned with time, begin and end.

“The thoughts of Allah are the everlasting of the past unto the never ending days to come. And so is man, the spirit-man.

“But man like every other thought of Allah, was but a seed, a seed that held within itself the potencies of Allah, just as the seed of any plant of earth holds deep within itself the attributes of every part of that especial plant.

“So spirit-man, as seed of Allah held deep within himself the attributes of every part of God.

The Elixir of the Gnostics: A parallel English-Arabic text (Islamic Translation Series)“Now, seed are perfect, yea, as perfect as the source from which they come; but they are not unfolded into life made manifest. The child is as perfect as the mother is. So man, the seed, must be deep planted in a soil that he might grow, unfold, as does the bud unfold to show the flower. The human seed that came forth from the heart of Allah was full ordained to be the Lord of plane of soul, and of the plane of things made manifest. So Allah, the husbandman of every thing that is, threw forth this human seed into the soil of soul; it grew apace, and man became a living soul; and he became the Lord of all the kingdom of the soul. Hark, now, let every creature hear, the plane of soul is but the ether of the spirit plane vibrating not so fast, and in the slower rhythm of this plane the essences of life are manifest; the perfumes and the odors, the true sensations and the all of love are manifest.

“And these soul attributes become a body beautiful. A multitude of lessons man must learn upon the plane of soul; and here he tarries many ages until his lessons are all learned. Upon the boundary of the plane of soul, the ether began to vibrate slower still and then the essences took on a final garb; the perfumes and the odors and the true sensations and the all of love were clothed in flesh; and man was clothed in flesh. Perfected man must pass through all the ways of life, and so a carnal nature was full manifest, a nature that sprang forth from fleshly things. Without a foe a soldier never knows his strength, and thought must be developed by the exercise of strength. And so this carnal nature soon became a foe that man must fight, that he might be the strength of Allah made manifest. Let every living thing stand still and hear! Man is the Lord of all the plane of manifest, of protoplast, of mineral, of plant, of beast, but he gave up his birthrights, just to gratify his lower self. But man will regain his lost estate, his heritage; but he must do it in a conflict that cannot be told in words. Yea, he must suffer trials and temptations manifold; but let him know that cherubim and seraphim that rule the stations of the sun and spirit of the mighty Allah who rule the solar stars are his protectors and his guide, and they will lead to victory. Man will be fully saved, redeemed, perfected by the things he suffers on the plane of flesh, and on the plane of soul. When man has conquered carnal things his garb of flesh will then have served its purpose well and it will fall; will be no more.

“Then he will stand untrammeled on the plane of soul where he must full complete his victories. Unnumbered foes will stand before man upon the plane of soul; these he must overcome, yea, overcome them every one. Thus hope will ever be his beacon light; there is no failure for the human soul, for Allah is leading on and victory is sure.

“Man cannot die; the spirit-man is one with Allah, and while Allah lives man cannot die. When man has conquered every foe upon the plane of soul the seed will have full opened out, will have unfolded in the Holy Breath. The garb of soul will then have served its purpose well, and man will need it never more, and it will pass and be no more and man will then attain unto the blessedness of perfectness and be at one with Allah.” - From the Moorish Holy Koran

All of the ancient and sacred scritpure: Suhuf-i-Ibrahim (The Pure Pages), Torah (5 Books of Moses), Az Zabur (Book Of Psalms), Al Hikmah (Book of Wisdom), Al Injiyl (Gospel/Revelations), and Al Qur’an act as a guide, science and gateway to the “many and one” universes of higher intelligence that serve Allah. The ancient scriptures are the revealed science of light that work in direct service to the hierarchies and theophanies of Aught within Allah’s continuum. With great and intense study, the adept of the sacred scriptures of light is translated into the higher thought frequencies where he/she is uploaded with the knowledge, wisdom and discernment of the heavenly codes that are to be transmitted to other Asiatic Creations.

Moors - study everything and all aspects of life as “everything is everything and everthing is of the essence of Allah.”

The Divine Duty of a Sheik: The Master of the Mystic Lore of the “Old Time Religion” and the Upholder of the Spiritual Codes of Being and Becoming

17 01 2007
sufi

“He learned the secrets of the mystic lore of Egyptland, the mysteries of life and death and of the world beyond the circle of the sun.”

The Sheik, Moorish Scientist, explores three modes of active and operative knowledge that reduces the illusory “distance” between Man and ALLAH. These operative methods of knowledge are as follows: heart knowledge (love mysticism), beatific vision (theophany mysticism) and immaterial sensory knowledge (intuitive mysticism). In the scope of mysticism and mastery, the Sheik is identified as a physical representation of a sage and/or high priest operating in the ancient and mystic lore of the “old time religion” and in the ancient traditions of knowing and understanding which also include the activation of spiritual forces that effect the expression of phenomena. The Sheik is a master of the mysteries, both material and spiritual. The Sheik also acts as a spiritual counselor to assist in finding, understanding and processing solutions to spiritual and secular related issues that hinder the awakening process that lead to higher realms of being, experience and intelligence.

The Meccan Revelations, volume IThe function of a Sheik is to provide guidance for the purpose of helping others develop the discipline and character that support spiritual growth and enlightenment. This is done by identifying the spiritual destiny (Ori) while developing a spiritual blueprint to cultivate the higher destiny of the spiritual adept. Just as Moors honor all of the true and divine prophets, so does the Sheik by honoring and remaining out of conflict with other religions and traditions as he/she is thoroughly trained in the universal truth that is held within each spiritual system that re-links one to their divine and perfect origin.

The Sheik’s influence should extend deep into all phases of life as he/she lives for one purpose, to discover the will of ALLAH and to become that “Will” in manifestation. Because the Sheik is charged with the spiritual development of others, he/she must also dedicate themselves to improving their own understanding of life while acting as a proper example for others; therefore, the Sheik must hold his own behavior, thoughts and actions to the highest moral standards.

The Meccan Revelations, Volume IIThrough the utilization of the three modes of operative knowledge, the Sheik (Moorish Scientist) learns to recognize the world’s objects as garments of ALLAH. Through perpetual spiritual growth and discernment, the Sheik then sees the garments as transparencies, only to see ALLAH veiled within each garment as symbolism.

  • Moorish Holy Koran (MHK) 11:22 - “These forms of life were but the thought of ALLAH, clothed in the substance of their ether planes.”

The doctrine of “fana” (the extinction of personal existence Quran 55:26-27) plays a great role in the ever developing Sheik, Moorish Scientist, because he/she soon realizes that “self” consciousness, replete with private and personal agendas, perpetuate the seperateness of Man from ALLAH, which creates distance between Man and his true destiny: the “Oneness of ALLAH (ahadiyya).”

Read the following passage and think over the coded message.

“There is a means of polishing all things whereby rust may be removed. That which polishes the heart is the invocation of ALLAH.”

Moorish Science: The Self Disclosure to ALLAH Reality

16 01 2007
meditation

The deepest and purest essence of Moorish Science is not intended for those seeking surface knowledge or those looking for a false sense of intellectual status; instead, Moorish Science acts as a conduit for the study of the most ancient and sacred wisdom: Islam. This universal system of mastery prepares the adept for the experience with the inner master: The Higher Self.

To understand the deeper aspects of the practice of Moorish Science, an adept has to constantly search for enlightenment and an operative level of knowledge that is based on the spiritual attument with higher consciousness frequencies and a theophany of al- Haqq (truth) as a result of beatific vision. This level of study requires that the adept open his/her “inner spiritual eye” and extend his/her own conscience beyond the limits of the material/ carnal existence. This is the path to super consciousness.

The Self-Disclosure of God: Principles of Ibn Al-'Arabi's Cosmology (Suny Series in Islam)To truly comprehend the divine lessons of Moorish Science, one must prepare them selves for an intricate and arduous journey to the “Throne of Mercy,” sarir al-rahmaniyya. To better understand the intimacy of ALLAH development within each man and woman, the following parable best explains how one gains insight into the spiritual realms of ALLAH.

“During a time of abundance and wisdom, several scholars (alims) came to a sheik and requested that he explain the ancient and eternal wisdom of Moorish Science. The sheik smiled and stated, “If it is Allah’s will, you shall learn the mysteries of ALLAH on ‘this’ day.” The sheik then invited the scholars into his house and asked them to wait for a short time while he withdrew to a separate room to make retreat (khawla) to Allah. The sheik returned after several hours and stated that the wisdom of ALLAH was revealed in vision. He further stated that if the scholars received the same vision, then the mysteries of ALLAH was theirs; however, if they did not experience the glory of ALLAH, then they had to either seek another sheik or learn to seek the answers from within. The depth of this parable demonstrates that it is impossible to teach “truth,” but one can only be guided to the source of truth for each individual has to “experience” truth - not be “told” truth.

The pure essence of the sacred and mystic spiritual system of Moorish Science is revealed by ALLAH’s kindness only to those, who are seeking and making effort to achieve an inner understanding of the “Unity of ALLAH” (ahadiyya) by self study and self mastery.

  • Moorish Holy Koran 3:14-15 “If you would ask me what to study, I would say, yourselves; and when you well have studied them; and then would ask me what to study next, I would reply, yourselves. He who knows well his lower self, knows the illusions of the world, knows of the things that pass away; and he who knows his higher self, know Allah; knows well the things that cannot pass away.”

The divine lessons, held within Moorish Science, act as the sacred teachings that hold the “keys” to the knowledge of the inner Universe. Its goal are to bring the Asiatic creation up to the higher levels of perfection.

  • Moorish Holy Koran - “Man cannot die; the spirit-man is one with Allah, and while Allah lives man cannot die. When man has conquered every foe upon the plane of soul the seed will have full opened out, will have unfolded in the Holy Breath. The garb of soul will then have served its purpose well, and man will need it never more, and it will pass and be no more and man will then attain unto the blessedness of perfectness and be at one with Allah.”

Man was given Moorish Science, Islam, to comprehend the creations of the Most High, ALLAH, and to perceive the glory? of the Most High, ALLAH, to reach the Throne of Mercy. Hence the specific range of means and methods used in the practice of Moorish Science, which can be quite difficult for understanding, remains as a science for those pure in intent and pure in heart. Moorish Science, by way of the Holy Koran of Mecca and the Moorish Holy Koran, teaches the importance of gaining understanding of the true and pure reality of ALLAH. Reaching this level of consciousness opens a plethora of possibilities for the development of Man.

The expressed teachings of Noble Drew Ali, encoded within the Moorish Holy Koran, lies enlightenment for man, the unique creation of ALLAH. However, it must also be known, that a true Moorish Scientist is not so bold to believe of think that the Moorish Holy Koran is the “only” written tool for self mastery. Many text have been placed before Man for his spiritual development, just as ALLAH have sent many messengers to guide Man toward his/her true destiny. If the adept (you) do not remeber anything else, please “know,” that” Man is doomed to perfection” whether he/she likes it or not.

The Universal Principles That Nourish the Divine Seed in Man: The Synchronicity of Truth

10 01 2007
moors

The divine teachings of Noble Drew Ali encouraged the apprentice and pure seeker of self-mastery to embrace the universal truths that create balance and unity between man and his environment. These natural aspects of infinite wisdom, provided by adept visionaries, sages and prophets, exist as evolutionary guidelines to resolve conflicts and differences for the purpose of spirit evolution and the achievement of the “Oneness of ALLAH.” One of the Moorish keys to knowledge, left in code by Noble Drew Ali, was his statement, “we honor all of the true and divine Prophets: Jesus, Muhammad, Buddha and Confucius.” This statement pointed out the similar aims and mission of the pure and fundamental teachings of the ancient wisdom which encouraged and emphasized a higher consciousness development in Man. The spiritual goal of each divine messenger is the active expression of peace and harmony. This expression, however, is first manifested within one’s self, and then released into the social area of the human existence.

The Ancient Egyptian Buddha: The Ancient Egyptian Origins of BuddhismThis article will display the similarities and teachings of oneness that exist between the true and divine prophets as pointed out by Noble Drew Ali. As previously stated, the keys to understanding are encoded in the ancient and mystic teachings of Jesus, Muhammad, Buddha and Confucius. Within the sacred sayings and text of these true and divine prophets are the essential elements, themes and methods for spirit progression and mastery. The following passages will display the divine truths that are shared between the four spiritual systems presented by the four teachers that were highlighted by Noble Drew Ali. It is important to demonstrate the universal aspects of these spiritual systems and how the revealed teachings of Noble Drew Ali were in accord with these teachings and not some “hodgepodge” collection of irrational religious ideals. With a complete study of Moorish Science, the “Oneness” of being and the “Oneness” of principle is revealed and engrained within the psyche of the apprentice of self-mastery.

Read and compare the teachings of Jesus, Muhammad, Buddha and Confucius and encourage your inner being to develop a pattern for seeing the “Oneness” of the ancient wisdom teachings, for the source of all is “One” in nature despite man’s comprehension level, or lack of, regarding the infinite existence of ALLAH. Each principle will express a teaching or saying from the respective spiritual systems that represent Jesus, Muhammad, Buddha and Confucius; therefore, the principles will be categorized as Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, and Confucianism. Also, the universal wisdom from the Moorish Holy Koran is used to display the universality of the teachings of Noble Drew Ali. As stated in the Moorish Holy Koran, “truth is the only thing that changes not.’

This display of infinite wisdom demonstrates the connectedness humanity has regarding a truth that remains durable, despite man’s attempt to divide and separate the ancient knowledge of “Oneness.” It should now be understood that the common link in man transcends the narrow boundaries of exoteric and mundane religion. The “old time religion” as expressed by Noble Drew Ali represents the nucleus in the web of destiny. Despite man’s attempt to confine that which he truly does not comprehend, Moorish Science shall remain an ever unfolding truth for those prepared for higher consciousness evolution. To conclude this article, the following text from the Moorish Holy Koran shall provide as validation regarding the constantly evolving psyche of man and how the infinite truth of ALLAH ever reveals itself to the blossoming being of spiritual evolution. Remember’.man is doomed to perfection!

Moorish Holy Koran 10:13-25

13. All people worship Allah, the One; but all the people see Him not alike.

14. This universal Allah is wisdom, will and love.

15. All men see not the Triune Allah. One sees Him as Allah of might; another as Allah of thought; another as Allah of love.

16. A man’s ideal is his God, and so, as man unfolds, his God unfolds. Man’s God today, tomorrow is not God.

17. The nations of the earth see Allah from different points of view, and so He does not seem the same to every one.

18. Man names the part of Allah he sees, and this to him is all of Allah; and every nation sees a part of Allah, and every nation has a name for Allah.

19. You Brahmans call Him Parabrahm; in Egypt he is Thoth; and Zeus is His name in Greece, Jehovah is His Hebrew name; but everywhere He is the causeless cause, the rootless root from which all things have grown.

20. When men are afraid of Allah and take Him for a foe, they dress up other men in fancy garbs and call them priests.

21. And charge them to restrain the wrath of Allah by prayers and when they fail to win His favour by their prayers, to buy Him off with sacrifice of animals or birds.

22. When man sees Allah as one with him, as Father Allah, he needs no middle man, no priest to intercede.

23. He goes straight up to Him and says, ‘My Father God, Allah!’ and then he lays his hand in Allah’s own hand, and all is well.

24. And this is Allah. You are, each one, a priest, just for yourself; and sacrifice of blood Allah does not want.

25. Just give your life in sacrificial service to all of life, and Allah is pleased.”

The Occult Chamber of the Heart: The Dwelling Place of ALLAH

4 01 2007
heart

A most important instrument regarding the complex structure of Man is the vehicle termed the heart. The question may arise about the location and functionality of the heart, but just as man struggles with the intricacies of the soul, so he also struggles with understanding the heart center and its reflective qualities? that link to the vibrational device of the mind. The heart instrument, during the sacred evolutionary process that takes place within the womb, is the first to be formed? in the organ structure? of the Asiatic creation. This fact, known by scientists, reveals the mystic truth that the heart is the beginning center of form and is the? location of seed of perfection (spirit) in Man. This dimension of truth suggests that within the depths of the heart center lays the divine spark that animates and connects all in existence and beyond. This is supported by the Moorish teachings that state that the closest place to find ALLAH is within the heart of Man, which represents the deepest and most sacred aspect of Man.

The Sufi Book of Life: 99 Pathways of the Heart for the Modern DervishThrough constant study of self, the Moorish Scientist learns to consider the devotion of the esoteric heart center as the most important place to develop for spiritual realization. This is supported by the ancient parables that teach how? the posession of a? calcified heart center closes Man from ALLAH? because he closes himself from his fellow Man. This is expressed in the Gnostic texts of 1 John 4:20-21 when it says ” “If someone says, “I Love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.” As encouraged by the teachings of Noble Drew Ali, the statement of “learn to love instead of hate” has a greater meaning to the adept seeking admittance into the mysteries of higher consciousness evolution.

Love, the primordial substance of eternal life, is not found in any exterior temple of Man on the Earth plane nor does it dwell in the atmospheric heavens above, but it is found in the depths of the inner sanctum sanctorum of Man. The “light of the world” is the Asiatic lantern that burns with the oil of patience, understanding and self-sacrifice. The question then arises, “whom should man love and in what manner should man love?” The action of “Love” is expressed by man’s intent to draw himself/herself closer to the vibration of love, whether it? be through? the love of art, social service, music, the study of nature,? psychology? or the universe. The excuse is first created by an intoxication of feeling or attraction, but with training, guidance, and instruction, that energy is then directed not to the physical entity or expression, but to the underlying nucleus of all that exists: ALLAH.

The Science of LoveThe first lesson, for Man, is the awakening of the heart center and the magnetic flow of its inner expression. This becomes the purification process by which the heart is cleansed, as it exercises the activeness of love and divine intent. The infinite dimensions of the heart acts as a vehicle for the Asiatic creations to see the inner and outer worlds of the hierarchical command ” John 12:2 “In my Father’s house are many mansions…” However, the mystic adept knows, as fact, that the science of the “giving of one’s self” is the ultimate expression of “Love” as the title of “Moslem” is esoterically defined as “one who submits to the Universal Laws of ALLAH through the divine expression of Love;” for how else could one submit to the will of the Most High God, but without first “Loving” ALLAH without the fear of the demise of the ego-self. This is the initiatic state of transforming from “submitting the will of ALLAH” to “becoming the will of ALLAH.” This is the esoteric symbolism of tithing as? there is nothing else to give ALLAH other than yourself.

This “Will” is esoterically revealed in the Quran of Mecca when it says “kun faya kun,” be and it became. This action of the above mentioned? phenomena represents how manifestation came into existence as an answer to the “Will” that expressed itself in the logos of “Be.” This phenomena not only exemplifies the origin of creation, but the “being” of creation and its manifestation (s). That power remains latent within the occult heart chamber of Man: the dwelling place of ALLAH.

Through the study of the spiritual dimensions of psychology, the adept learns to recognize its Overself counterpart, the preexistent higher intelligence within the seven vehicles of the Overself hierarchy. This area in the initiatic experience allows the pure ones to acclimate them selves with the photonic language of geometric programs, which connects the signature frequency of pure love with the many spiritual vehicles working with the divine programs of ALLAH that act as food for the higher vehicles of consciousness. The blossoming process of the mystic rose, in essence, symbolizes the unfolding of the heart center in Man. As Man works upward on onward to his/her hour of graduation, the body of Truth, vibrating to the signature frequency of Ana l’ Haqq, transforms Man into a living scroll of truth, charged with light to be delivered to the throne of ALLAH. This is the purpose of Love.

This is nothing romantic, nothing passive, delicate or weak; but something with divine coordinates to the most powerful, majestic and noble expression in the known and unknown Universe ” this is the “action” of Moorish Science.

The Moorish Path to Adeptship: Understanding the Two Basic Divisions (pt.1)

31 12 2006
enlightenment

The most beneficial, yet difficult and arduous task on the physical plane termed Assiah is the path of spiritual enlightenment and self realization. As the less traveled path of transcending the limitations of society, popular culture, personal fears and negative attachments become more difficult and adverse in nature, the adept must learn how they are the determiners of their eventual salvation. In understanding the nature of adept ship, the apprentice learns from in-depth and persistent study that there are two spiritual factors in the development of the higher self. They are as follows:

  • Journey to Self-Realization: Collected Talks and Essays on Realizing God in Daily Life (Collected Talks and Essays)(Factor 1) Pure Seeker - The true and pure seeker learns and demonstrates the willingness to experiment and practice the teachings for Higher Consciousness while displaying the active principles of Love, Truth, Peace, Freedom and Justice. When demonstrating the previously mentioned principles the adept must strive ceaselessly with the mission to become honest with one’s self. In this phase the adept must decrease the following: 1) procrastination,? 2)? the? ability to rationalize why he/she should not apologize and 3) the failure to take? responsibility for his/her own negative actions or self defeating behaviors. This state of development forces the adept to grow inward and upward while paying close attention to detail and divine instruction. The statement “many are called, but few are chosen” applies to this state of being as the separating factor between higher consciousness attainment and normal human existence. True self realization and consciousness evolution takes place in phases; therefore, the idea of “overnight spiritual mastery” is a pitfall to self destruction and delusion. The true seeker must maintain inner strength and integrity so as to avoid old patterns, behaviors and ways of thinking. The active study and practice of Moorish Science allows a weak personality to conquer negative thoughts and destructive perceptions, feelings of discontent and addictive desires. This active study of Moorish Science teaches the pure seeker how negativity reinforces the strength of the chains of limitation, adversity, conflict and all things that harm. The idea is to form purity of heart by actively expressing the mantra - “Love instead of Hate” as instructed by Noble Drew Ali.
  • (Factor 2) Sheik hood - Sheik hood is the phase in which one provides spiritual, emotional and communal counseling and insight into the mysteries of life. The Sheik/Sheikess, operating with “Love,” acts as a conduit for understanding. As most pure seekers have found, an individual or congregation can read sacred and divine texts and scripture until their heart is content, but without the key of understanding, the teaching will leave the reader in the same state, bound to the ego oriented arena of illusion and conceptual delusion. The Sheik/Sheikess should be available to help the pure seeker practice and develop themselves in every phase of life. The Sheik/Sheikess should bring honesty, harmony, and a decrease (if not a termination) in harsh words. Along with the previously mentioned attributes, the Sheik/Sheikess should also display and encourage a true desire to know the nature of the Universe while overcoming stagnate behavior and thinking which leads to ignorance, bondage and the perpetual state of sorrow.

yinyanIt is said that once these two personalities emerge as one, that even the celestial hosts pay homage and take notice of them. The key to adept ship states that within every pure seeker is the seed of the “Master” and within every “Master” is the seed of the pure seeker. For the inner and upward spiral continues until man and his personal identity is no more.

Read the following parable regarding spiritual attainment:

“An eager and motivated seeker went to visit a Sheik to ask for initiation into the ancient mysteries of life and to gain an operative understanding of the sacred science of the Universe. The Sheik instructed the seeker to visit the temple regularly, study the ancient texts, attend class and practice daily the lessons provided to him. The seeker reported that he could not perform these tasks because he did not have the time. However, he did state that he wanted liberation, deliverance and salvation from the suffering and cares of the world. The seeker then asked, in a serious tone, “why are you holding the ancient wisdom teaching from me?” The Sheik then stated that he would indeed provide the seeker with the teachings that he so desired, but he had to prepare a special meal for his new instructor the following evening. Once the time arrived, the Sheik visited the home of the seeker for the food offering. The seeker brought out the food offering to his Sheik and encouraged him to eat and enjoy. The Sheik then removed from his bag a heavily soiled bowl that contained parasitic insects and other crawling creatures. The seeker was astounded and requested that the Sheik allow him to clean the bowl before he, the Sheik, ate from it. However, the Sheik refused. The seeker, now angry, stated that he did not understand why the Sheik would put his food in such a dirty and nasty bowl. The Sheik then replied that he did not understand why the seeker would expect him to teach him, the seeker, the purest wisdom without him first emptying the vessel of his mind. The seeker immediately realized the error of his ways and pledged to follow the instruction with a sincere heart and with disciplined action.

In the future we shall explore the complex phases and degrees of consciousness one must enter to achieve higher states of being.

The Esoteric Connection Between the Moorish “Revealers of Light” and the Masonic “Sons of Light” (pt.1)

27 12 2006
light

The initiation methodology of ancient Moorish Science was designed to provide the necessary instruction and guidance for the use of the tools that would lead the apprentice toward mastery of the physical, mental/psyche (soul) and spiritual planes. These keys, for the higher functions and laws of the universe, were imprinted, via frequency, into the minds of the adepts to foster the understanding of the greater gnosis that created, governed and guided the universe and its cosmic cycles. The elect, of the “visible order” of the “Revealers of Light,” that encompassed this great body of knowledge were termed, by the ancients, “the ones that death had forgotten.” Names and titles for these elect illuminaries differed depending upon the language and degree (phase of consciousness) earned by worthy initiates and adepts of the Mysteries of ALLAH. An example of this can be found in the title and seat of Melchizedek and Imhotep. In Hebrew, Melchizedek is defined as the King of Righteousness and Peace (Hebrews 7:1-3), just as Imhotep is defined in the Khemite (Egyptian) mysteries as the King of Peace. This seat, power and title, like most attainment phases in the “Hierarchical Command,” is available for those worthy entities that have completed their phase work in their respective consciousness quadrants. This is evidenced by the (allegorical) initiation of Yehoshua (Jesus) the Christ into the ancient order of Melchizedek as mentioned in the book of Hebrews 7:15-24.

As revealed in the previously mentioned biblical verses, it is noted that Yehoshua (Jesus) was documented as having taken an oath. Unlike the mundane oath and obligations taken by those of the “lower life” degree system, the ancient oath referred to in the Universe Mysteries, obligates the initiate to not divulge or transmit the higher “programs of ALLAH” contained in select cosmic keys; as it could be detrimental to the lesser consciousness entities; for the knowledge of the greater gnosis could cause the lesser consciousness entities to place themselves on the path of self destruction. An example of this is seen in the movie “Bruce Almighty” when Jim Carrey’s character, Bruce,? misused the godlike power, as given to him by Morgan Freeman (God), for personal and selfish gain. The character’s lack of concern for divine order and cosmic law caused calamitous events, disharmony and imbalance as he was not responsible enough to handle such power with just action and just thinking.

The Lost Keys of FreemasonryTherefore, all must be governed by their karmic “cable tow” to follow their instructions as described in their cosmic job description. As one transmutes into their ministerial garment of light, the vibrational requirement (oath) must be maintained for their actions and deeds constantly calibrate and determine their worthiness to possess such power and status.

Regarding the symbolic nature of the ancient teachings; it must be known that the mystic instruction manuals were written with an allegorical nature. Therefore, allegorically speaking, a cosmic function of ALLAH may sometimes be identified, by Masons, as “The Grand Architect of the Universe.” With this in mind, it is now understood why those masterfully operating with the tools of the workshop of the mind, are termed, in ancient text, carpenters, temple builders and craftsmen. These symbolic and esoteric titles are referenced to the architectonic administrators that reveal and build with the light geometries that contain encoded message programs for the Asiatic seeds of the planetary worlds and celestial communities. In connection with “The Grand Architect Of The Universe,” one of ALLAH’s many divine and cosmic functions, it is easily seen how the carpenter and temple builder act upon the blueprints and geometric plans of the architect; therefore, the operative term of Mason applies to the scientists that act upon the divine plans of the infinite and omniscient architect.

As veiled in the Coptic Gnostic Egyptian text, the term Phre-Messen (Freemason) meant “Sons of Light.” These “Sons of Light” are the same divine entities identified in the Moorish Holy Koran as the “Revealers of Light.” The ancient super scientists were the ones that left the Earth with codes written in astrological ideographs, sacred language hieroglyphs and codified measurements and mathematical ratios. This is evidenced by the Holy Koran of Mecca being coded with the mystic number 19 which is connected with the great pyramid and other great structures of the galaxy, which are encoded with the mystic mark of 19.5 degrees.

The Self-Disclosure of God: Principles of Ibn Al-'Arabi's Cosmology (Suny Series in Islam)As demonstrated and hidden within the great and sacred text of this Earth, the greater gnosis of the “higher life intelligence” was never lost, but veiled in code from those that were “ruffian” in mind. The operative science of the “Revealers of Light” was designed to teach the initiate how to press past the material boundaries to free him/herself from the prison of matter and the wheel of Karma (Zodiacal Wheel) to further ascend and connect themselves to the greater universal temple as a “Perfect Ashlar” within the temple’s structure. Under the umbrella of Moorish Science is the department, currently known as Masonry in this age and time. However, the Masonry of today does not reflect the higher life intelligence gnosis, as that science, ancient Masonry was and is for the liberation of the spiritual Man from the fetters of flesh, not for the subjugation and suppression of the ancient wisdom to oppress the minds of masses from self mastery and planetary ascension.

The greater gnosis and instruction from the hierarchical command was and is available for those that are willing to submit to the cosmic laws of ALLAH and surrender to the divine path of the higher intelligence, contained in “Self.” However, it must be known that greater gnosis is only bestowed upon the eager and willing adepts that are loyal and disciplined enough to “earn” that level of knowledge, as nothing comes without a price, test or process of distillation. To be deemed worthy to manifest and carry the message of the greater gnosis of ALLAH, the apprentice must first experience the greatest of all mysteries: The Job Mysteries.

The Kingdom of Immanuel: The Preparation Age of Soul

25 12 2006

- Moorish Holy Koran 3:21-23

“The only devil from which man must be redeemed is self, the lower self. If man would find his devil, he must look within; his name is self. If man would find his savior, he must look within; and when the demon self has been dethroned, the saviour, love, will be exalted to the throne of power. The David of the light is purity, who slays the strong Goliath of the dark, and seats the savior, love, upon the throne.”

immanuel

Throughout the cycles and ages of the Earth plane (Assiah), the great illuminaries of the higher evolution and hyper-transcendental consciousness have sought to enlighten man from the consciousness realms of negation and darkness into the higher spheres of attunement with ALLAH. They all possessed, to some degree, the divine template of greater consciousness as expressed by those higher entities carrying divine messages from the greater consciousness time zones, these entities are identified as “Ilah Mutajassid” by the great Moorish masters of the ancient days of the past. These “revealers of light” encourage man to seek new realization and understanding for the purpose of raising man, societies and nations from the darkness in which they are bound to a more advanced state of intelligence and being. As written on the dial plate of time, the akashic records, man has risen from darkness, gained cosmic consciousness and enlightenment and ascended into the greater realms and heavens within the hierarchical kingdoms of ALLAH. This pattern has repeated itself as man has embarked upon the long path of evolution toward the divine mission of light from which they then pass on into the oneness of ALLAH. This is further validated in the Moorish Holy Koran in the following passage:

  • Moorish Holy Koran 6:5-8 - ” By universal law, all things tend upward to a state of perfectness…..Now, man himself is mind, and mind is here to gain perfection by experience; and mind often manifest in flesh form, and in the form best suited to its growth. So mind many manifest as worm, or bird or beast or man. the time will come when everything of life will be evolved unto the state of perfect man. And after man is man in perfection, he will evolve to higher forms of life.”

alchemyIn this day and time, many people have begun to develop a greater thirst for inner light and personal development. However, some that experience this frequency alert, deliberately smother and shut down the urge to develop themselves because they fear change from their current system and methodology of study and being. This struggle to rise above the material routine of comfort creates festering seeds within the soils of chaos. As a result of this deliberate stagnation of inner growth - mental imbalance, thought impurity and psychosis are created because man suppressed his natural progression toward inner attunement. The strong grip on material concepts from the world of illusion, from which he/she is destined to outgrow, has given birth to disharmony and imbalance which explains todays rapid increase in psychosis and psychological disease and distress.

The difference between the mass of humanity and the select that seek inner development and self mastery, is the acceptance of the signals for higher consciousness evolution and the lack of fear to experience and receive the evolutionary law of upward progression. There is nothing in the universe that can hamper the progress of awareness once the apprentice leans to become certain, in mind, of his/her place in the cosmic scheme of being and becoming. Negation cannot touch the adept unless they create the condition of disorder within themselves to which the seeds of chaos attaches, as there is no such thing as something happening merely because it happens. This statement is brought to light in the teachings of the Moorish Holy Koran as it states, “It is not strange, there are no happenings, law governs all events.”

Remember, we create our own destinies. However, the path of attainment is crowed with obstacles and life experiences that act as filtration devices for the extraction of impurities, only to prepare and cleanse the garment of light for worlds of higher intelligence. We either draw ourselves closer to the throne of Aught (ALLAH )or to the source of negation and naught. Most people can see the warfare between the cosmic forces of polarity, this solidifies the fact that peace in this world is almost non-existent, but there can be balance and harmony (Islam) within the mind and hearts of the adepts of humanity. This is the preparation age of “Soul,” the kingdom of Immanuel.

The Pathology of Failure: Ascending Beyond The Victim Mentality

23 12 2006
psychology

It is believed that because we exist, we deserve all of the material and spiritual rewards of the universe without developing character and merit. Often times we convince ourselves that the universe, physical and spiritual, is like some type of limitless treasure chest and that our mere existence warrants, by decree, admittance into the dimensions of wealth and prosperity, regardless of effort or work ethic.

As most people feel that they are worthy and deserving of “good things,” they easily become disgruntled and place blame on others while declaring themselves victim of injustice and atrocious misfortune whenever they feel they are 1) not fortunate enough or 2) when they feel their valued substance, material or spiritual, have been usurped from their possession by others. Each person considers themselves positive and for the most part, identifies those that hold adverse positions to their own as “evil.”

It has become normal within modern standards of character to desire the possession of what is termed valued things along with the idea that it is an injustice to not possess these things. It has also become trend to strongly feel that one is “deserving,” despite the lack of effort as most complain about their situation while expressing, from their hearts, feelings of social injustice that hampers their efforts toward gaining success.

The malignant disease of instant gratification, easy success, lack of patience, hatred forpolarity2 hard work and lack of character development created the avenue by which the “Lower Self” thrives and festers in the soils of chaos. The higher thought faculties within the realm of animalistic behaviors and parasitic fetal narcissism rationalize unjust behavior in the name of righteous action and concepts of illusion. This basically implies that man has grown to think that the world should be at his/her service to satiate his/her every need without any real effort.

As fetal life is devoid of merit and effort, man has become selfish with only the desire to feed and take. This is the breeding ground for child violence, both physical and sexual, rape, theft, acts of dehumanization, slavery and “soul” manipulation and control as it is easier to take from and overpower others for “easy success” rather than developing one’s inner and social character for divine integrity.

The desire to be loved without the willingness to love first has become the epidemic of the 21st century. This was pointed out by Noble Drew Ali as he instructed the Moors and other members of the Moorish Science Temple to “Love instead of hate.”

  • 1 John 4:20 - “If a man say, I love God, and hate his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother, whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?”

The “Pathology of Failure” is the lack of acknowledging the divine in others, expecting instant gratification and not willing to display consistent work ethic with merit that states, ” I truly deserve.” The perception of failure is defined by the perceiver; but the cyclical continuance of failure is a harmful device when the progenitors of social and personal deterioration aim for immediate satiation instead of collective ascension toward greater “Self” development. Just as the methodology of a virus is to infiltrate the infrastructure and spread infectiously, it also must become the methodology of the man operating in the realms of higher being - “master self and infect others with the work ethic to develop themselves for themselves and the universe, as we all are essentially one held together by the cords of life.”

Zothyrian Psychology: Moorish Meta-Psychic Introspection

20 12 2006
psy

The psychology for calibrating the chemical networks associated with mental disharmony is to be understood by the use of Moorish Meta-Psychic Introspection. This science, Moorish Meta-Psychic Introspection (MMPI), encourages the apprentice, of cosmic harmonization, to apply the “aught of truth” for an analytical examination of self, environment and the universal interconnectedness of the true inner self - the “I AM” identity.

This process begins with the purification of the mind faculty which increases the functionality of Man’s natural condition. The purification of the mind first begins with the process of reducing the mind’s activity which, in many cases, creates impurities and disharmony. To still the mind is to attune the mind to its natural pitch and frequency for the reception of the finer elements and messages of Cosmic Consciousness.

psy2The act of Moorish Meta-Psychic Introspection involves the use of concentration and focus for the orientation to meta-creation. To command, control and activate the mind’s interaction are aspects of concentration in stages. These stages are successful when one learns abstinence against the constant and purging activities of the mind. The object to concentration is to manifest the ability of calling upon the finer elements of creation for the purpose of creating realization and mastery.

In the ancient circles of mystic psychology, the mind states which equate to the rising, zenith, and setting of the sun are as follows:

  • Uruj - the state of mind in which the adept thinks with enthusiasm and energy.
  • Kemal - the state of mind in which the thought active energy reaches its culmination as the force of the thought becomes exhausted.
  • Zaval - the state of mind in which the enthusiasm and energy of the thought, idea or deed is lost. The pleasure of the deed losses its affects as there is an assimilation of essence.

The mastery of these three psychological states empowers the adept with 1) the recognition of the mind’s patterns which become more evident, 2) the control over one’s thoughts, passions and emotions for the balancement of action and deed, 3) the reduction of the dwelling and contemplation of negative thoughts and egotistic actions and 4) the ability to conquer self for the purpose of ascension and consciousness terraforming.

Spiritual Dimensions of Psychology (Collected Works of Hazrat Inayat Khan)Moorish Meta- Psychic Introspection is that which bridges analysis with synthesis to form alchemy. The exploration of the spiritual dimensions of psychology leads the apprentice toward the mystic gates of “Akasha.” This discipline of study encourages the transcendence of illusory manifestation to allow the subordinate mortal consciousness to be elevated to the “logos,” the “circle,” and the “seven,” the ideographs representing the master adept in “God Realization” consciousness.

The Art of Being and BecomingThe correct application of psychology focuses more on the mental navigation development for the exploration of inner space and cosmic attunement as opposed to the riding of psychosis for the recalibration of mortal consciousness behavior. The purging of cosmic delusion and individual illusion begins with concentrated efforts toward full spectrum perception. This impregnation of messianic consciousness rids man of the greatest unintelligible mystery: ALLAH. This realization reveals the following: the body has different components with various names, tissue classifications, organ functions and cellular duties, but with all the variety one learns to know that “I Am One.” This lies as truth in the cosmic realm of being as one finds that oneness, despite the many and numerous names and forms, is ALLAH which man will unite with.

Man is doomed to perfection and ALLAH is the infinite and boundless nucleus. This is the aim, mission and purpose of Zothyrian Psychology: Moorish Meta-Psychic Introspection; to realize that there never was a destination (point A and point B), but an unfolding of consciousness until the “individual” no longer existed, only ALLAH. For only ALLAH could comprehend ALLAH.
