Anonymous Coward User ID: 75530075 United States 06/28/2020 02:34 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ishq in classical Persian, literally means 'love', 'agape'. The word is derived from ‘ashiqah, a vine: the common belief is that when love takes its root in the heart of a lover, everything other than god is effaced. The term "Ishq" is excessively used by sufis in their poetry and literature to describe their selfless and 'burning love for the creation and Creator'. It is the core concept as it is the key to the connection between man and God. Ishq itself is the basis of 'creation'. [link to www.youtube.com (secure)] |

I just wrote a piece on agape on the prayer thread? Like 10 seconds ago? Hmmm...yes people need to remember that agape is a quest and not a destination! ANd I whirled with the Mevlevi's on and off for a few years....

To not be comfortable in this world is actually truly living because things become exciting and new rather than stagnant safety of living in echoes of past steps of predictability. He still clings to the teaching of matter is evil because it is transient time invariant. When people cling to matter that changes constantly they suffer. Lol |

That makes no sense. People never really grasp that nothing lasts. Impermanence. One of the reasons people are unhappy is the realization people tend to cling/covet things that don’t last. When one understands nothing lasts then happiness won’t be based on never lasting things. As soon as it fades, they become unhappy. All one really has is the now. The false gods of the flesh is the four things people work for. Grace and works topic. Which is Peace Love Joy Purpose None of those can be found outside of oneself. That is how man and society has trained their future ancestors to find them outside of self. All the time it is inside of us.

I was going to start off by saying nothing new under the sun. I am going to read the testament of Solomon soon. What I do know is that at the end of his life he said it was all for vain. All the riches that his status granted and the women. Which really isn't what people think. He gained the whole world and then got his soul gifted back to him in the end. lol |
