PERENNIAL PHILOSOPHY: The Transcendent Unity of Religions.

As a voracious reader I try to soak in whatever fancies my intellect for the time it seems interesting. I do not read the news, watch TV or have any clue as to the major developments in Geo-Politics. This is the Zen version of my personality according to the Individual Multiculturalism concept in Psychology (read up). Learning in Zen mode is a piece of cake as you remove yourself from worldly concerns for the sake of acquiring pure knowledge. In this noblest of pursuits, the entire universe colludes to grant you a lasting vision of Original Understanding (Nirvana). Knowledge is power only if a man knows which facts to ignore attaining Supreme Focus. Remember that while Knowledge is Power, Wisdom is Liberation. As a Bodhisattva who practices Perennial Philosophy, I know shukarAlhamdullillah both these concepts and more.

A similar narrative can be found in Judaism, Christianity & Islam, when God (Allah in Arabic, ????? in Hebrew) grants the most superior and complete Knowledge of Creation to Adam Our Father. All the Angels in Heaven agree that the knowledge possessed by Adam (thus mankind) is superior to theirs and prostrates before Adam (thus mankind).

Satan obviously an inferior, flawed and sick intellect refused prostration and ruined the party for all of Creation.

Satan (a Jinn) was Never an Angel. They cannot Disobey, no Free Will gifted by God.

Satan is a coward of the highest order. His sole purpose is to bring as many humans and jinns to hell with him as possible. He encourages disobedience to the Commandments of The One True God and invites you to the hellfire. According to scripture, this is what he will say to all his followers on Judgement Day:

This version is very similar to Jewish and Christian traditions. However, the Christian understanding based on the New Testament creates the incorrectly translated assumption that Original Sin occurred in Heaven with the Forbidden Fruit. Orthodox Muslims agree with the Biblical Concept of Original Sin, yet attribute it to Cain murdering Abel. They agree that according to The Noble Quran, both Adam and Eve were tempted together thus Eve was not the initiator of Original Sin.

After practicing many esoteric traditions, I recently joined The Order of Abraham the Monotheist (based on Philosophia Perennis) as Obediant Apprentice. We recognize all Faiths of the Book, the followers of Revelations (Old Testament + New Testament + The Noble Quran). In addition anyone who believes in One Supreme and All Powerful God is welcome to join. The criteria for initiation is;

1. There is Only One God called Allah in Arabic & ????? in Hebrew.
2. The One True God has No Equal(s), Partner(s), Creator(s) or Limitation(s).
3. Absolute Faith that God sent Revelations to Guide Humanity/Jinns via Prophets.
4. Faith in the Unseen World (Heaven, Hell, Angels, Demons etc.) and Day of Gods Final Judgement. Resurrection with Reward (75% Chance) or Punishment(25%).
5. Donate Wealth that is Beyond Your Needs (Old Testament & Hadith etc.).
6. Recognize that Only God has the Right to Prescribe Laws for All Worlds.
7. Avoid what God forbids in the Revelations (Polytheism, Adultery, Usury etc.).
8. Do the Prescribed Meditation/Contemplation and Prayer out of Pure Ishq (Love).
9. Belief that Satan is a being devoid of reason, held bent on taking ALL Humans/Jinns to Hell since he idiotically blames God for his dimwitted logic.
10. Satan has no power over ANYONE, he merely makes Sins appear Attractive.
11. On the Day of Gods Final Judgement, Satan will cowardly abandon his followers.
12. Encourage Unity & Harmony among Jews, Christians & Muslims for Global Peace.
13. Etc...

As a member of many fraternities and orders, I’m going to let you in on a little secret.

The common trait of all secret societies, fraternities, crafts, fellowships, elite decision makers, zen masters and spiritual orders is the concept of The Sacred & Profane.

As someone with Sacred Knowledge, Abraham the Monotheist the Father of all Children of the Book (Jews, Christians and Muslims) was willing to Sacrifice his son. He was tried and tested with severe tribulations yet remained steadfast with absolute belief in the One True God of Creation (Allah in Arabic, ????? in Hebrew).The history of Abraham the Monotheist starts with him staring at the night sky as a young man. Disillusioned with his idolatrous society governed by his father the Highest Priest and a self declared god king, he searches for meaning and purpose.

At first he sees the brightest star in the night sky and decides to call it god. When the star disappears due to earths precession, he declares the moon as his god. Soon the sunrise overshadows the moon and Abraham declares the sun as his god. At sunset Abraham realizes that those who fade away cannot be God. He finally screams out at the Heavens for the One True God (Allah in Arabic and ????? in Hebrew) to guide him. His prayer is answered and he is rewarded with Sacred Prophetic Knowledge.

Being the son of the High Priest of the capital city of Ur (present day Iraq), he sneaks into the Main Temple and takes a hammer to all the so called gods besides the largest one. After finishing he rests the hammer next to the remaining idol. The next day his father and priests find the carnage and ask Abraham (now Abraham the Monotheist) if he is the culprit. He tells them to ask the largest idol who has possession of the hammer. The priests and god king answer that mere statues carved of rock by man are incapable of this act. Upon hearing this reply, Abraham the Monotheist asks why they worship powerless idols instead of the One True God of All Creation?

This act of youthful rebellion against the established and corrupt system of public manipulation, slavery and religious control is considered blasphemy by the god king. If you think of a true revolutionary, then instead of Che Guevara, you should have poster of Abraham the Monotheist, breaking idols on your walls. He rose up against his fathers religion, the so called god king and the political establishment. All for his faith in the One True God! Wow! What could be more revolutionary than that? Imagine! Think!

This act of faith is met with an overwhelming show of force. When threatened with execution, Abraham bravely declares The One True God has power over who lives and dies. The false god king barks he has the power of life and death as well. He brings two death row inmates from prison, executes one and frees the other. On witnessing this act of stupidity (another case of Satanic logic). Abraham declares the One True God makes the sun rise in the East and challenges the god king to make it rise from the West. Furious at this helpless realization in front of the entire court and kingdom, the deluded monarch is humiliated. He orders a massive fire to be stoked that can be seen from miles away. As punishment for exposing the man-made gods, Abraham will be burnt alive. Due to the intensity of the fire, the only means of execution is to use a catapult. The entire military, nobility, priesthood and thousands of onlookers witness as the catapult is let lose and Abraham is flung hundreds of feet into the air, towards the fire.

The angels of God starting with Gabriel come one by one offering help to Abraham the Monotheist. Instead of relying on Creation (Mankind, Jinns and Angels etc.) Abraham has COMPLETE and UNSHAKABLE Faith in the One True God (Allah in Arabic & ????? in Hebrew). When Abraham the Monotheist gets closer to the fire, God Himself orders the blaze to be a place of comfort and sanctuary for his Noble Prophet. This can be summed up in an Urdu Mystic Verse by Allama Iqbal (Punjabi Esoteric Motivational Poet). The translation is "Love fearlessly leaps into the fire, logic is stunned."

This in-depth understanding of knowledge by reading just one verse, looking at natural phenomenon or geometric patterns etc. is called Symbology. It is the fastest way to learn anything, especially morality that instills a sense of servitude to the One True God. Many sacred mysteries can be understood with Symbology, for instance the blooming of a barren desert after rainfall. This phenomenon forebodes our own resurrection on the Day of Judgement. Here is Chile's Atacama desert in full bloom after a rare rainfall. Similarly after our death we will be raised to answer for our deeds by God.

"From the earth We created you, and into it We shall return you and from it we will raise you a second time." The Noble Quran 22:55

Having a faith in the unseen world, believing in ANY deity (as a start). Acquiring knowledge, loving the surprise of the eureka moment and transforming spiritual growth into morally intellectual prowess is the TRUE criteria of merit EVERYWHERE for initiates. The Profane lost in the delusion of worldly desires are hopeless and forbidden from Sacred Knowledge. Their hearts dark, eyes wide shut, and ears closed to the truth. The existence of the Profane is a rat race no one wins, but everyone loses.

No Atheists allowed for Fraternities of Secret Orders, they lack imagination and fall victim to the flawed, outdated and inferior Satan inspired conclusions.

Time defeats everything. Yet time itself is a Creation of God. Go figure that out Atheists. Space travels faster than Light...Duh!

My ever evolving belief after many profound mystical experiences is that all religious and spiritual traditions are part of one Unified Truth. I pray that the One True God (Allah in Arabic & ????? in Hebrew) of Abraham the Monotheist (The Father of Jews, Christians and Muslims) brings you out of Darkness into the LIGHT. We are so busy in our 9-9 that we fail to grasp that the purpose of life is not bills and banquets. We were born to contemplate the Mercy of God and enjoy the fruits of nature. Ever mindful of the lurking, bitter and wretched Satan and enlightened by the Supreme Truth (One All Powerful God). God is Truth, everything else is a LIE.

There is a difference between Knowing reality is an illusion and Experiencing the Source Code of Creation in Adinkras where the Only Constant is the One True God. Same thing according to String Theory & The Holographic Universe.

Let’s cut to the chase, it is difficult for me to communicate with you people as you prioritize worldly affairs over the true purpose of our presence here. I already started the process of donating everything I have in anticipation of my 2nd of December 2017 retirement. This was my oath as a 12 year old Orthodox Muslim after my father taught me The Noble Quran and the King James Bible. Orthodox Jews have a Hanukkah at age 13, after which you are an adult, Orthodox Muslims have the same at 7 years old.

In business I'm always all in, I’ve been broke twice, I know how harsh life can be. Everyone left me besides one true friend and my parents. Today I thank God for all those hardships, they made me the Co-Founder of 31 Startups. My most valuable lesson: Any success at the cost of your faith, family or wellbeing is a failure. If you read Scripture (Old Testament + New Testament + The Noble Quran) The One True God of Abraham states that He will reward any Charity in this world with a Reward in Heaven at least 70000 times larger. This is my conviction, I am willing to die for this belief as I have UNSHAKABLE FAITH in the ABSOLUTE MERCY OF ALLAH SWT (God in English, ????? in Hebrew). This concept shapes my entire existence and reality.

As a logical Investor if someone offers me a Guaranteed (by God in the Old Testament + New Testament + The Noble Quran) 70000 fold return on my initial investment, I’d sell the shirt on my back for that opportunity. Imagine all the excitement folks in the Bitcoin trade feel when the price reaches a new high. As someone who bought Bitcoin at cents and gets paid 50 BTC/h as a consultant, I can relate, I’m looking forward to my big payday in Heaven inshAllah with everlasting life and heavenly bliss. Coming back to Symbology, the following verse means "Commit to your heart the divine lessons of honesty, justice and bravery. For your purpose is to lead the world."

There is only one CEO I care about and He Created Creation (Allah in Arabic, God in English & ????? in Hebrew). My desire is not Heaven, it's a perk for those who Sell their Soul to the One True God of Abraham. Those who Strive for His Sake never Die nor do they experience any Remorse. All Scriptures testify that they are provided a Bounty beyond Imagination and given Dominion over Time & Space itself!

If you can understand what I have just written in the last 30 minutes then you are the Sacred. If not, you are Profane. For the Sacred the roads of knowledge are wide open, while the Profane are slaves of lust, fame, money and power. Free yourself from these worldly shackles and there is an illuminated path from the One True God of Abraham.

I am writing this article because I have no time to argue with people concerning my beliefs, social media posts and professional decisions.

I am retiring from Startups, Board Meetings, Consulting and Business on 2nd December 2017. Donating everything I have in the path of the One True God (Allah in Arabic & ???? in Hebrew). I will have more time to explore the spiritual side of life shukarAlhamdullillah. Might write more on such topics when I feel like it inshAllah. Becoming Sacred (Possessor of True Wisdom, Peace & Knowledge) as individuals should be our Only Priority for no family, fortune, fame or friends can help us against GOD. Always remember that Allah is God in English and ???? in Hebrew.
