Lazarus Symposium
"When has religion ever been one? It has always been two or three, and war has always been raged among coreligionists. How are you going to unify religion? On the Day of Resurrection it will be unified, but here in this world that is impossible because everybody…
This is the REAL Rumi don't believe in the lies Islamic freemasons made and what the NWO push to create a one world religion!

"Since St. John of the Cross was a man of great energy and intellectual curiosity and had been accustomed to dealing with Moriscos since his childhood in Medina del Campo (near Valladolid), it is difficult to believe that he had no contact with the Mora de Ubeda. Therefore, of all the great figures of Sufism it is al-Ghazzali who has the firmest and best documented connections with St. John of the Cross. The great Arabist Fr. Miguel Asin Palacios demonstrated convincingly the influence of the great Hispano-Muslim Sufi ibn Abbad of Ronda in Dark Night of the Soul by St. John of the Cross. There is a firm if oblique relation between al-Ghazzali and ibn Abbad. Al Ghazzali considered al-Hallaj to be among the greatest of mystics and esoterics, "among the fewest of the few", while ibn Abbad belonged to the Shadhiliyyah School or Order of Sufism, one of whose leading figures was al-Hallaj."

"There are a number of close parallels between the Shadhiliyya school of Sufism, of which ibn Abbad of Ronda was one of its greatest exponents and the Descalced Carmelite School of Christian Mystcism, of which St. John of the Cross was the founder."

"Fr. Bruno makes no distinction whatever between the fact of Mysticism and its interpretation in terms of scholastic theology. Abbot John Chapman said: "St. John of the Cross is like a sponge filled with Christianity - squeeze out all that is specifically Christian and the full mystical theory remains". I am most certainly not suggesting that St. John of the Cross was a secret Muslim. To doubt the sincerity of his Christian faith would be madness. The great Christian scholastics of the Middle Ages borrowed a great deal from Muslim philosopher, particularly Avicenna, al-Farabi, al-Ghazzali and Averroes, something which no one denies nor accuses them of having been "Crypto-Muslims" for this reason." - "Persian Traditions in Spain" by Michael McClain

"And if this is so, it is a great god, though it is not just some god; rather, one might well think that that which is all Beings is the universal god. And this nature is god, a second god, revealing itself before we see the first. That first God is seated or settled above Intellect, as if on a sort of beautiful pedestal which is suspended from it. For it had to be the case that the One, in proceeding, did not proceed to something soulless, nor indeed even proceed immediately to Soul, but that there had to be an indescribable beauty leading its way, just as in the procession of a great king, the lesser come first, and the greater and more dignified come after them in turn, and those who are even closer to the king are more regal, and those next even more honoured. After all these, the Great King suddenly reveals himself, with the people praying to him and prostrating themselves, at least those who have not already left, thinking that it was enough to see those who preceded the king."

Miguel Asin Palacios’s comments on Dante and Islam:
“It need hardly be added that such attraction as Dante felt towards Oriental culture does not imply a liking for the Moslem faith, for the sincerity of his Christian belief is beyond all doubt. His sympathies were merely literary, and scientific; and his mental attitude is revealed in two typical passages of the Divine Comedy. Avicenna and Averroes he places in the limbo, but Mahomet in hell. And even Mahomet is not punished as the founder of Islam, but as a sower of discord and an author of schism; he is placed along with men the effect of whose actions cannot be compared with the profound upheaval – religious, social, and political – that Islam caused in the history of the world and, to her unutterable loss, in the history of the Church.”
The passage continues to mention that many Christians’ understanding of who the Messenger of Allah (Peace be upon him) was was fundamentally incorrect which led to them naming him amongst themselves as ‘Ocin’, ‘Pelagius’, ‘Nicholas’ and ‘Mahomet’. So Dante employed one of these names, intending the Messenger of Allah (Peace be upon him), to highlight to the Christians that the true problem with this individual, as he maintained wal iyadhu billah, was his schism and not that he had founded a new religion. So, he chose not to place him in his narrative amongst the false prophets because his understanding of that aspect of this individual would have conflicted with the normative Christian understanding, but had he had the opportunity he would have and this is expressed in the excerpt:
“One is tempted to think that Dante was content to depict Mahomet as a mere conqueror, not because he was unaware of the other sides to his character, but because the portrayal of these would have been incompatible with the absurd image stereotyped on the minds of his readers.””

We live among ruins in a World in which ‘god is dead’ as Nietzsche stated. The ideals of today are comfort, expediency, surface knowledge, disregard for one’s ancestral heritage and traditions, catering to the lowest standards of taste and intelligence, apotheosis of the pathetic, hoarding of material objects and possessions, disrespect for all that is inherently higher and better — in other words
a complete inversion of true values and ideals, the raising of the victory flag of ignorance and the banner of degeneracy. In such a time, social decadence is so widespread that it appears as a natural component of all political institutions. The crises that dominate the daily lives of our societies are part of a secret occult war to remove the support of spiritual and traditional values in order to turn man into a passive instrument of dark powers.
