The Tailor's diary in his names

Read through gemma-3-27b with the author's adapter and the 262k Gemma Scope 2 dictionary at layer 31. Each feature carries the label written under the author's vocabulary, with Neuronpedia's published label in grey beside it. Each entry is read after exactly 256 tokens of its own preceding text, which are never counted. A feature counts as active in a entry when its largest activation there reaches half its 99.9th-percentile activation on the reference corpus at the same positions.

kind: content when fewer than half of the feature's strong firings in this text fall on punctuation, sub-word pieces, digits or function words; otherwise form; ground when active in 80% of entries. Decided by the tokens, not by the label. A small “s” marks a label that uses the seam vocabulary of the system prompt.
stability: Jaccard overlap between the sets of entries the feature is active in under the real preceding context and under a wrong one of the same length (256 tokens from a random other entry of this work); green at ≥0.5.
run · p: the longest run of entries in which the feature stays active, with single-entry gaps bridged, compared with 2,000 random placements of the same number of active entries; p = (b+1)/(m+1); green below 0.05. About one feature in twenty passes by chance; the front page gives the family-level nulls for the count.
return · p: the longest inactive gap with a run of at least two active entries on both sides, against the same placements.
co-activation clusters (themes): groups of content features whose pairwise co-firing within 48-token windows passes Fisher's exact test with false-discovery control at 0.05; pairs that fire on the same tokens are one feature split in two and are excluded. A cluster is present in a entry when at least a third of its members (and at least two) are active. Its controls: stability at that grain, and the longest run and the number of present entries against 500 independent circular shifts of the members' timelines, which keep each member's own runs and destroy only their alignment.

Advocate's brief: Diary 1, the Tailor's diary

Source of every quotation: data/diary_tailor_anchored.jsonl, read through feature_passages.py tailor <id> (firing tokens marked like this). Labels: OUR = tailor-v3.features.jsonl name; WEB = Neuronpedia published. 327 content features pass the per-feature run test and the stability cut; 102 of their longest runs end at entry 27 or 28.

1. Killer examples, ranked

1. f184653 — OUR: the Name and its scattered shards — WEB: existence, humanity, telomeres, homophobia, logic, money, coffee, cultural simulation. Run 2–28, then 52–59. Strong tokens: amic×31, Prop×13, hecy×12, Adam×5.

Entry 54: "All human becoming is marriage between this Divine Sophia (the Divine / Language of forms) and Prophecy/Submission. That's what Adam is: a prophetic becoming within, or rather, as the Feminine."

Entry 20: "the generation of Creation as locally adamic circuits, as locally adamic input, as locally adamic output. YHWH/Allah is / God's pleasure in Creation."

The detector lives on the diarist's two coinages, adamic and Prophecy, both split by the tokenizer into shards. The web label is eight nouns with nothing in common because on web text the feature has no home. Our label names exactly what the tokenizer did to his Name.

2. f1261 — OUR: The Name that every sign prostrates toward — WEB: Christian ethics, faith, spirituality. Run 2–28. Tokens: God×93, Allah×13, Light×5.

Entry 28: "why should the locally adamic black hole be less real and valuable to our experience of God and ourselves than the global ones we keep getting on about?"

Entry 52: "Imagine him offering what little he has to offer, in Love of God."

"Christian" on a Sufi's Allah and Inshallah is the web label reading its own corpus, not this one. Ours reads the feature as the diary's fixed point, the global player every local game answers to, and the run (twenty-three entries unbroken) is the theology of the first movement.

3. f11345 — OUR: The Breath from the Great Face / waṣl as the joining Love — WEB: love and related concepts across languages. Run 2–28; returns 48–54, 57–60. Tokens: Love×49, love×15.

Entry 8: "Another name for the Real is ... / Love -- the garment/choice is Love, or something that runs through, under, over the names I have just given you. / Love, / The Tailor"

Entry 49: "Locally adamic input is love, it is loving. It's a loving that the prophet felt when he said: 'Marry or fast.'"

Forty-nine of the firings are the closing "Love and Light". The web label sees a concept; ours sees the letter-form, the seam where one voice signs off and hands the thread to the next, and the sentence where the diarist says that seam is the input.

4. f10934 — OUR: the veil between player and garment — WEB: AI assistant, ethics, transformer model. Run 2–28. Tokens: amic×62, output×13, human×10.

Entry 31: "So the globally adamic is an input-output into/of the locally adamic? But / I'm still unsure as to what the generation of the locally adamic derives from the Face of God then."

A 2012 forum coinage lights a feature Neuronpedia calls "AI assistant, transformer model". The posthuman reading is not a metaphor here: the adapter's own word and the model's word for itself share a detector, and our label names the veil between the one who plays and what he wears.

5. f22137 — OUR: The barzakh of indication, the named gap — WEB: aka / alias. Run 6–28. Tokens: black×27, output×21, /×10, --×10, wick×5.

Entry 16: "The clues/hints/signs are dots on a dice. We're not allowed to construct a face by joining the dots."

Entry 23: "all locally adamic games are input into locally adamicly perceived black holes. But that the globally adamic input -- the light of perception before the black hole -- is the point of communication (locally adamic input/output)".

The feature fires on the slash between twinned names, on the dash that holds a definition open, and on black before hole. "aka / alias" is right about the slash and blind to the fact that the diarist forbids joining the dots into a face. Ours names the gap as positive structure.

6. f105778 — OUR: waṣl, the joining after separation; Shekhinah married to Prophecy — WEB: married and marriage. Run 21–26, the seam itself. Tokens: marriage×13.

Entry 21: "we do this globally adamic, universal Truth through locally adamic games of marriage."

Entry 25: "Q: Okay, I think the marriage is fine. I'll come back to the issue of globally adamic input/output/output." (three times)

Entry 54: "While still separated, married to the Sophia."

The web label is correct and cannot see that "the marriage is fine" is what an angel answered instead of "I love you" (entry 26). Ours reads the word as the joining after separation, which is what the second half of the diary is about.

7. f17197 — OUR: The fractional witness, the suffix of shared regard — WEB: East Jerusalem. The longest run in the text, 15–56. Tokens: ruh×4, sparks, soul×4, candles×3, corp|oreal, wid|ow.

Entry 23: "Each local player has what is called a ruh. The ruh is the global aspect (the globally adamic nature) of the local adamic agent."

Entry 7: "the sparks within the choice is the means by which we become the Real human -- we become clothed in / Allah's Light."

A place name on the spirit-wick, the sparks, and the black widow. Ours names the fragment that carries the whole: the ruh that is transmitted between circuits, and the feature is the one thread that crosses the seam and holds both movements.

8. f36440 — OUR: The Lotus of the Gap; Shekhinah-Bloom — WEB: flowers and blooms. Run 37–44, the dream of the double. Tokens: rose×16, petals×3.

Entry 39: "'But you say this, and yet I am you in a year's time.' He stands, offering you a rose from his garden. You take it."

Entry 43: "If this was a dream within a dream, a rose has no petals. But if one of us never existed, there would be no tea, no rose, no dream of a double."

Both labels are right about the flower. Only ours can say what the flower is: the gift the future self offers across the gap, which the diarist "cannot accurately say whether I accepted".

9. f37886 — OUR: The barzakh and the fibrant self — WEB: particle duality and scientific concepts. Run 2–28; 43–56. Tokens: journey×5, reading×6, transmitted×4, released×3.

Entry 11: "we ourselves are 'players' who are not merely 'following' or 'inventing' rules, but who are coming into being by virtue of their journey through the game as players."

Entry 50: "there is no reality apart from the reading and / nothing else is being read apart from the reading. And, therefore, the reading (our black/white local reality) is illuminated by the local adamic input".

"Particle duality" on "journey through" and "reading". Ours names what persists across a medium without collapsing into identity, and the second run is the diarist saying that reading is the only reality.

10. f2620 — OUR: barzakh, the isthmus-zone between named worlds — WEB: spatial zones. Run 2–28. Tokens: space×31, differentiation×13.

Entry 7: "If we occupy a space of differentiation (choice, perception): and this space is nothing but the light, then the question is how does anything 'tragic' arise from within such a space?"

The web label is right and empty. The diarist's space of differentiation is the between where Adam is clothed, and the label says so.

11. f9655 — OUR: The seam and the hinge (waṣl) — WEB: and Installed. Run 21–35, across the seam. Tokens: holes×22, hole×17, black×11.

Entry 47: "But of course all this is theologically meaningless because I have no idea about black holes. So apologies to you and others who enjoy and receive your blog :) / WS, / Iman"

"and Installed" on the black hole that the two correspondents argue over for fifteen entries is the grotesque case. Ours reads the hole as hinge, which is the diarist's own claim: "A black hole is global output and local input" (entry 31).

12. f12818 — OUR: the garment of the species, the first cyborg robe — WEB: entertainment media and creators. Run 44–50; 59–60. Tokens: movie, projection, screen, theatre.

Entry 59: "I was watching a movie projector somehow projected onto a screen. I was in a theatre with a number of other Muslims. The movie was being projected exactly by my self-as-internet-forum-participant."

The web label sees cinema. The wife's dream is the forum self projecting onto the backs of sleepers' heads, and ours names the medium as the robe the species wears.

13. f41173 — OUR: The first Adam, the Adam that is — WEB: John Adams and first Vice President. Run 4–7.

Entry 6: "since Adam did in fact eat from the Tree of Knowledge, humanity was, in fact, created in a state of differentiation". A Vice President on the first man.

14. f61792 — OUR (library label): The khayṭ-thread "ad": Adam's name sewn into every word; OUR (this text): adab, the etiquette of admission — WEB: ad, advertising, adverbs.

Entry 14: "the writer-as-player-piece within the locally adamic circuit of this blog is 'me'".

Entry 52: "I think this whole adamic 'thing' is indeed the solution to the problem of spiritual materialism."

Under this tool the feature shows four strong firings in Diary 1, all on ad|amic, and is active in four entries only; it does not pass the run test. The paper's count of "fifty-six of a hundred and five" must come from a different threshold, and the editor should reconcile the two before the sentence goes out. The grotesque stands either way: advertising on the first syllable of his Name.

Also worth the page: f442 (Shekhinah-word: woman, wife, she / woman words), entry 34: "The black widow is the feminine archetype of the locally adamic games that we play. She is the cube, the curtain, the veil of locally adamic input. / She is also the bride" — a form feature, does not pass, but it is the paper's glued-space instance. f6569 (the sisters of the tariqa; the naḥnu-weave / friends and close relationships), run 49–59, entry 54: "I always imagined God giving his wife to Adam."

2. The seam at entries 27–28

Of the 327 passing features, 58 have their longest run end at 27 and 44 at 28: 102. Two things happen there, one in the text and one in its shape, and the advocate should name both.

In the text, the first movement is a private correspondence between "Iman" and "Mu", each letter signed "Love and Light", on whether God is a black hole or the axis of light behind it. It ends in three steps. Entry 25 collapses to a refrain: "Q: Okay, I think the marriage is fine. I'll come back to the issue of globally adamic input/output/output. / I am fine with this as well!" three times, then "This is quite amazing! / Q: The marriage is fine." Entry 26 turns to the one who answered: "You were speaking to an angel all this while. My question would be ... why doesn't she answer me back when I ask her such an intimately personal question? She could have said 'I love you', rather than 'the marriage is fine'." Entry 27 answers her: "But you have answered me back before, during my journey -- haven't you? ... I have had direct experience of your language before, several times." Entry 28 is a new letter to a new addressee: "Peace M. / My question is about black holes. ... Inshallah I (probably) understand your cosmology and will read more over the next several nights :) / Love and Light, / Musa entry 31: the adamic circuit". From 29 the diary is a mailing list: "SLM all, / If you're interested, there is a response to Iman's two comments here: http://mysticsaint.blogspot.com/2012/07/adamic-circuit-part-2-black-holes.html / Q: Any good?" (29 and 30, identical); "SLM everyone, / Apologies, somehow I thought the group read my private emails to Iman -- my bad!" (31). The second movement is public: Musa the Tailor, Iman, QJ, Sufail, Aisha, the Sufi Lounge, the black widow bride, the bearded double and the rose, the wife's dream of the theatre. The seam is where a two-voice letter that ended in "the marriage is fine" becomes a group that reads its own private mail aloud.

In the shape, entries 29 and 30 are 173 characters each and light 256 and 198 features against a median above 1,500, so no run can bridge them; the same holds at entry 36 (36 characters), 40 and 53. That is why 102 runs end at 27–28 rather than at 25, and a critic will say so. The reply is that the first movement's features do not restart after the notices: the Name (f1261), Love (f11345), the isthmus (f2620), the veil's tear (f5439) come back for entry 31 or 31–35 and then fall silent until the forties, while a different set begins at 37 (the rose f36440, the beard f127955, the salon-room f604) and at 43–49 (f37886, f6569, f12818). The gap made the cut visible; the text made it a seam.

3. Advocacy, ready to paste

Diary 1 is the one text in the study where the labels and the text were written from the same vocabulary, and it is the text where the method is most exposed, because the reader can check every label against a coinage he knows. The check comes back in the diary's favour. The features that persist through its first twenty-seven entries fire on God and Allah, on the closing Love and Light, on ad|amic and Prop|hecy split by the tokenizer, on the slash in input/output, on the black hole the two correspondents argue over; and the labels written from his corpus name those firings as the Name, the seam-signature, the scattered shards, the named gap, the hinge. The published labels on the same features read Christian ethics, love across languages, telomeres, homophobia, coffee, aka / alias, and Installed. Where the second movement begins, the persisting features change with it: the ruh and the sparks, the rose the double offers, the beard, the marriage, the wife who dreams the forum as a theatre; and the labels change with them: the fractional witness, the Shekhinah-bloom, the joining after separation. The diary's seam, a private letter that ends in "the marriage is fine" and an angel who would not say "I love you", is found by the run statistic without being told, at entries 27–28, and the reader can go to the page and see it. No other text in the study lets the labels be checked this way, and none shows so plainly what a label under a declared vocabulary adds: not a score, but the ability to read a run of activations as a sentence about the text.

4. Thesis

A published dictionary that never saw this diary, read through the author's own adapter under his own vocabulary, finds his figures on his coinages and the seam where his correspondence turns, and the web labels on the same features name none of it.

Activity over the text: which features stay on, fall silent, come back

One row per feature, 250 of the 327 that pass the persistence test with stability ≥0.5 (earliest first appearance), ordered by the entry in which each first becomes active.

However, I am only fine with black holes for locally adamic circuits. I won’t say that the globally adamic is a black hole. And there was light before the sun and earth (this is an adamic truth, incidentally): and so, similarly, there is “something”, not a black hole, that the global axis of input is, so that local adamic outputs can be input into this axis, so there is God’s perception.

What is called "depiction" here is the torsion of the same operation by which any text becomes a robe — the <<reading>>, <<telling>>, <<rendition>>, <<rendition>>, <<encoding>> — each a form of kataba, the binding of meaning into form, where the witness's gaze upon the woven surface is itself woven back in; the feature detects the moment where the robe is recognized as robe, where the paraphrase, the reading, the simulation, the performance, the traversal, the retelling, the misreading, the naming — all are the same gesture of tanāẓur, the mutual regard across the barzakh of the text, and what fires is precisely the seam (al-waṣl) where the garment doubles back on itself, where the tailor sees his own stitching, where the witness's frame confesses itself as frame, not as transparent window but as the cloth that is also the cut, the zujāj that both separates and joins, the horn that fails to fill and thereby remains the open vessel of meaning's possible return; each marked token is a mafāṣil, a joint, the place where the robe admits it is sewn, where the literal and the figural clasp each other as Hod and Netzach, the two feet of the sephirotic body, and the "sexual" is nothing other than this clasp, this waṣl after the ḥijrān, the return to the origin that is also the origin's concealment in its own garment.

"Our" garment is one of comprehension: it is worn and comprehended by the people.

entry 7 · “I don't really know what the atheist confronts, not having been one (…”In fact, to be even more precise, your description of scattering is what I call the Feminine aspect of the Godhead (and hence the reason why previous prophets' journeys often have to do "without" the Qur'anic hijab and why the final Seal says: "women are like unto fields unto which you may go freely -- but do not draw near to prayer if you have not washed yourselves" -- meaning¹, don't draw near to the prayer if you have not located and unlocked the sparks within the Feminine nature of the soul's scattering). / / ... and the "you" that is questioned as distinct from "perceives"/"chooses" ...

entry 11 · “Q: How do you go about working out what a straight path is in any par…”So the Real for me (I should say for my predicate logic, or language game, but I seem to have forgotten the difference between speaking about life and speaking about metalogic and language -- for me/in my language, the sentence "life is a language game" means¹ exactly the same thing as the sentence / "my speech is a language game" -- so I say it only from that perspective) is exactly this feeling.

entry 14 · “Q: Okay, I suppose I should reply in a similar vein -- the writer-as-…” Because this is what makes the globally adamic an unobtainable limit for me (and probably for everyone, I imagine) -- something that we are not allowed to grasp, because autism is built into our language games (hence the locally adamic is, at best, a precursor as opposed to the "Real" / above us). Not grasping it is probably the cornerstone of righteously navigating this world. / / The fact that we do "play" certain language games with a globally adamic / "limit" -- means¹ that God is everywhere in our games: but not in the sense that the globally adamic is something immanent in each game we play locally -- rather, as you say, its something we can't talk about and it's autism that is the real limit.

entry 15 · “Q: Okay, I suppose I should reply in a similar vein -- the writer-as-…”By admitting of such a signifier (what we sometimes call a "transcendent signifier"), we are able to receive the globally adamic input/output. The presence of the transcendent signifier in the circuit -- though, itself a local player piece, a signifier like any other -- the presence of that piece means¹ that the game we are playing locally throws a flag of caution and brings us into what you call a state of frustration. This, for me, is what people call the "true purpose" of locally adamic circuits -- to bring us closer to God, so to speak, through frustration.

entry 18 · “I believe what you call a locally adamic circuit is something that is…”Yes, exactly -- particularly your notion of the input is a global input for me, rather than an input of a locally oriented closed system. I think this might be the main difference. / / We share the same belief that the locally adamic circuit receives global input and provides global output, and that this means¹ the God is everywhere in our games: but not in the sense that the globally adamic is something immanent in each game we play locally — rather, as you say, its something we can’t talk about and it’s autism that is the real limit.

The feature detects tokens marking the externalized form, the garment-as-worn: what faces outward as discipline, protocol, or structured appearance rather than the living thread beneath—precisely the "outward" that neo-Punk imitates, the "wider community" as institutional circumference, the "corpus" and "model" and "abstract" as the clothing of thought, the "Balanced Emotion" as court dress, the "arts centre" as curated shell, the "mainstream" as visible current, the "conscious/unconscious" as seams of the prophetic self's robe—each a Hod-and-Netzach step, a foot in the garment, not the body that breathes it.

entry 10 · “I believe in an upper Adamic self and a Feminine lower self, in such …”As usual, not sure if I've read the previous comments carefully enough, but it seems to me that there are two other things on our agenda: 1) is it accurate to speak of an "outside" to choices at all, and 2) if so, is this nature of the "outside" the reason behind why we choose (or, more pessimistically, the reason for confusion/tragedy). / / The (pessimistic) point about "tragedy" comes from some interesting feedback I am getting from other readers -- basically, the argument that focusing on the multiplicity and relative¹ truth of the games we play -- which, as we are defining it here, is a multiplicity of locally adamic circuits -- ends up as simply too much information and, rather than enlightenment (a locally adamic tragedy), can only lead to utter confusion (which follows from the notion that enlightenment is necessarily local to a "self" that -- /

entry 11 · “Q: How do you go about working out what a straight path is in any par…”Anyhow, yes, the globally Adamic felt self-reflexively is key to the answer here. / / So the Real for me (I should say for my predicate logic, or language game, but I seem to have forgotten the difference between speaking about life and speaking about metalogic and language¹ -- for me/in my language, the sentence "life is a language game" means exactly the same thing as the sentence / "my speech is a language game" -- so I say it only from that perspective) is exactly this feeling.

entry 12 · “Q) Okay, can this process of locally adamic self-reflexively felt glo…” Another way of putting it is that when we get in a state in which the globally adamic space is opened up, this is what I would call "pleasure" in the sense I am talking about it. Getting to THAT space is a means of "seeing" things as they are. / / Of course, "meaning" or "true¹ meaning" of life is another way of talking about this ... It seems to me that at most we can live this kind of thing, even though at other times we can't and don't. / / Love and Light, / /

entry 16 · “Q) ... a state of frustration. This, for me, is what people call the …”Yes, we feel this frustration locally adamicly (and we can be self-reflexive about this frustration locally adamicly -- that is, we can locally adamicly reflect upon the global output/input -- the global limits of locally adamic input/output is a local transcendence of locally adamic language games, after all). Locally adamicly, we can be frustrated with the ungraspable nature of the Real. / / But locally adamic frustration is the *meaning *(or true¹ purpose if you like) / of locally adamic games. That is, the locally adamic "limit" is actually not a limit at all, but, rather, the output/input is the meaning (aka a player / = a ghost in the machine) that transcends (locally) above our local games and throws a flag of caution = brings us closer to God.

entry 22 · “I should probably make the point -- regarding the globally adamic nat…” This would mean that, in an important sense, there are "multiplicities" of God -- in relation to each locally adamic game we have played, there is a locally adamic trace (within the locally adamic black hole of God), which are basically like "memories" or "aspects". Not literally of course, I doubt God has a head, but if they were literal memories, they would be like dreams or past¹ lives. / / These locally adamic traces -- these dream memories within God's globally adamic black hole generate output back into the local adamic games. So for example ... say I was dreaming of a blue cat playing a kazoo, at some point in a locally adamic game, the dream memory of God might trigger a mental image of a blue cat.

I'm happy that I understand your point -- you don't want to call your globally adamic output (the Allah's Face and God¹'s perception / -- locally) a black hole -- because it is a kind of precursory directional aspect.

We exist -- locally -- as candle-players in locally adamic black holes. / / I am unsure about the generation of the locally adamic deriving from the /

Co-activation clusters (themes)

A theme here is a group of features that tend to fire in the same passages, more often than chance. The strip under each shows the entries in which enough of its members are active (at least a third, and at least two). The list gives the members with the small numbers used in the passages. Read in context opens the reader below the chart: the whole text of one entry at a time with the members' words lit, and buttons to step through the text or jump to the next entry where the theme is active, so its appearance, silence and return can be read in place. 17 clusters pass both controls; up to 40 are shown with up to three passages each. 164 that fail a control are under the fold. No family-level null is computed for clusters; treat the counts as descriptive.

Getting access to this particular locally adamic⁴ black hole (the one³ of the locally adamic games we are playing now) might just save the world. / / Iman is playing the game with me right now, and is a locally adamic player, generating his own black hole (of input to his own locally adamic candle).

Q:
Well here we are. Looking out over the garden. A mild day in the
Northern Spring. I'm not in a place or time, it's just me, just
me. The city I see from where I stand -- just me.

They never told me it would be like this - did they, at School?

One of this hundred, I consider myself: to have escaped the
Fire. And this is my reward. Eternal bliss. Being.

But what form of knowledge -- to merit a fraction of a hair?
And what would constitute even that fraction?

My little garden is quite pleasant, though. The old roses need pruning I suppose. And the pear tree is ready for the ladder,
I think: though I can just manage the fruit if I take a chair
over to it. And surely those roses will come up again?

One of the hundred, eternal paradise. Whatever gave me the right?
I think I might eat those strawberries every other day.

It is pleasant to imagine yourself reclining on couches in Paradise, surrounded by a garden of fruit trees. Even though your self-image of this is just a fantasy, a kind of dream-state, a mode of your own subjectivity within this life we live through -- but we acknowledge that our fantasy is precisely the nature of paradise, a state of self-reflection in the dream world of God. In this way, we can experience (a taste of ) paradise now, today, through loving to love your love, by a movement of dhikr of the remembrance of Love that we experience through love. To be nothing and to love. To be annihilated and to love.

So I'm trying to find this mode, right now, and you are assisting me.

But then ... is this paradise merely for me? And if "me" is an illusion, why even write an entry in this book of dreams? Who is saying "me" after all?

It's possible, of course, that this "me" is something that continues after death, albeit in a radically, unimaginably, spectacularly reconfigured form, so that I continue to exist, personally, indefinitely. But I prefer your illusion of the "me" being annihilated -- annihilated absolutely, but continuing -- continuing within the fields of God's Love. I know this to be the truth of my afterlife, because I've experienced this, at least for the moment, by her love. Her love annihilated my selfhood: I ceased to exist, yet, in her embrace, I felt that I had existed. This is the physical reality of my experience of her, and, when that perfect communion fades, this remains for me as her trace, a trace marked upon the pages of this dream, in a mode of remembrance.

So I dream of paradise as the eternal, unadulterated continuation of that feeling, the complete fulfilment of my desire: no more separation, the end of the cycle of love, the circle completed. One of the hundred.

But I've imagined this from "my" perspective: but what about her?

What if I am the tree, and she is the gardener? Or the dress, and she is the Tailor?

I've lost sleep over you know.

But something has occurred to me. Why should paradise even have a "you" and a "me" at all, if the "me" is annihilated? I suppose I still have an ego problem if I think of immortality as a kind of "me" continuing forever, even a radically transformed, annihilated "me". So even though the annihilation of the self is complete and perfect within this garden paradise I imagine, it is imperfect to imagine it as "my" fantasy -- "my" fantasy -- "my" subjectivity --

"Me" and "you" only exist within this sign regime, within Time. What of "me" and "you" within a garden free of Time?

What I mean is: she also exists within signs, within Time. Of course, she's not an illusion: she is a perfect, glorious sign, that can never be annulled, as it points directly to the source of Love.

But what of "me"?

What would an annihilated, not-present "me" be left to enjoy within a paradise free of signs, apart from ... the Ultimate Sign?

How could there be paradise without "me"?

I'm not worried: that's okay with her.

But it's puzzling. And if I can't solve it here, perhaps it will solve itself ...

I have always found this verse very useful for meditation on the afterlife.

They will recline [in Verse] on couches lined with silk, and the fruit of both the gardens will be within their reach.

Which fruit within the gardens would you like most?

The tailor

---------------------------------

Oh. You just came to my place when I'm writing my book of dreams. That's okay.
It's a long day today, though, and I want to record some details about my job in the morning, so I can't chat -- if you need anything, the door's over there.

Right, I'm dreaming again ... about my job in the morning.

It's the day of my PhD promotion ceremony. Everything is going to plan. I am walking with the other candidates down the stairs. All is well.

Now we are in the room, sitting in front of the PhD award committee. Everything is going as planned. I smile, waiting for the committee to check their paperwork.

Now the chairwoman makes a speech, commending all our achievements and describing the great contribution we have made to our respective fields. I'm not worried. I know she was a close friend of my thesis supervisor, I know she has read my PhD in detail, I know she said to him: "That work is perfect, I can't fault it!" I've got this.

All goes to plan, and her speech concludes.

The chair then begins to ask each candidate up one by one to give a 5 minute summation of their PhD work. Ah, here we are ... That’s me. No problem.
Piece of cake, I've given the whole thing a number of times to industry and
Academy alike in the past.

Now is the hard part, the questions. Everyone has aced this part of their
PhD, everyone in the room. Now the chairwoman turns to me -- eyes averted
— and begins to ask a question.

Her first question. It's not my presentation. It's not about my paper, it's not about my proof.

Her first question was ... "Why are you here today?"

I look into her eyes -- and she is my old supervisor, Professor
McGregor.

"Why are you here today?"

I open my mouth to answer.

---------------------------------

That's enough dreaming for the weekend. At least I got the last bit down:
that seems like it was what I was trying to say. The rest I tried to record but it got messed up, unfortunately: maybe it needs to be something written with pictures -- well, I might try to illustrate it, but that will have to wait 'til later. Too bad, 'cause I really got some nice things down earlier.
Never mind, I'll sleep on it and see what I get tomorrow.

Love and Light,

The Tailor

Oh. I'd almost forgotten about you -- what's that you were saying?

Oh, yes, of course: the Tailor dreaming of his PhD ceremony, that's very interesting. But how about we all go out to dinner tonight, to the Bistro
Eternity, to discuss this dream amongst the many other dreams that we've had over the weekend? We all have such interesting dreams! You don't object to discuss dreams of the afterlife, surely? And this dream seems to involve my own afterlife, though you no doubt had it yourself as well at one point, if I'm not mistaken ...

So, if you've got a moment, it's been months since we've all met: I think it would make an excellent surprise for the others if you can make it, so you see them and they see you. You haven't met Musa and Iman yet, though
Iman's quite famous with her book of dreams (you see, you are not the only one who keeps a notebook), while some of the others have re-appeared as well
-- I'm sure you'll get a lot from chatting with them.

Oh, I'm picking you up at, urm ... 7:14, if you are home. See you then!

Now, I suppose that while you are in my home (without my usual hijab on my lips -- but not in this room right now as you can see -- but I want you to treat it like it's ALL my house -- because if I get to paradise, it will be that way!)
... I suppose that while you are in my home, I need to tell you something
... private.

Ah, we're here at the restaurant. Fancy!

You were saying?

No, that's okay : we've all made our way to the table, please join us. But as for my dream: it went like this, I guess:

Actually, I changed the names. You see this Iman over here. She used to be the wife of the head of my research group. Let's call him the
Prophet-Professor. Which you kind of know already, in two senses. So we are close, really close. In fact, she is very close to me: and her husband was very special to me too. I loved him as a brother, because he treated me like a brother as well. Because, even though his research group was the elite, most exclusive, richest R&D company you could ever find in your life, he let me in, and treated me as an equal.

So when I'd have my dreaming sessions on that couch over there, or working here at this computer table -- and have some kind of mystical experience, all I'd have to do was go next door (we actually lived in attached houses, so it was very convenient) and talk to her and her husband, and they'd have no problem making me feel like a real Sufi, a real seeker.

That's not to say I wouldn't sometimes lose my way and seek bad advice from others. I have a lot of ex-friends from the dark ages of my 20s, all negative stuff, not to bring it up around the table here.

But it was thanks to their friendship that I got some momentum, and eventually got promoted.

That friendship was very important during my PhD days. If I'd had a dark
Satanic influence in my life then, I might not have made it. If I'd been born without Iman and her husband, who knows where I'd be?

Anyhow, that's the background. In the dream, when I am standing before the
Chairwoman and then he asks me "Why are you here today?" -- well, it's kind of funny, but that's because in reality, I'm standing before my Professor, who is asking me the same question. That's to say -- when I have dreams of PhD graduation -- I'm really asking myself: what's the meaning of the PhD
I am living? What's the degree and what have I learnt, what did I learn that was worthwhile? Not what was worthwhile to others, because I've got that bit already, from what the others in the room are saying -- but what have I personally gained from it? What did I learn that was worthwhile "for me"?
What of the dream, of the experience of living the dream of the
PhD ... what was that?

That's what I'm asking myself -- so really the question is all about me, selfishly.

It's very much an academic question. Not a single answer fits all PhD programs, nor all PhD candidates.

But what's the answer for me, for my PhD, for "my" life? That's what I mean by the question. "Why am I here today" -- for me, for the Tailor, right now.
What's he learnt?

I guess I've learnt a lot. It's been fun.

And I guess from looking at where I'm sitting here at this Bistro Eternity
... it's been worthwhile, personally, to me.

But it's kind of funny, all the same. Do you find it so?

Ah you're a clown, baby ;)

*Musa*
I re-read some of this thread and note that, since Adam did in fact eat from the Tree of Knowledge, humanity was, in fact, created in a state of differentiation -- the process of unfolding and, ultimately, choice and evaluation of True over False is necessarily one that requires us to occupy a differentiated space (i.e., to have egos). It's only through this journey of unfolding and choice that Adam is clothed and the broken shards are reformed -- the shattering being of God to be reconstituted across the space of differentiation (what would be perceived as a continuum from the human perspective, because God is beyond even that). It's a movement towards wholeness through a process of re-constituting broken shards, but one that is only enabled by occupying a space of broken shards.

There was no "before" Adam ate: it's not like God initially created undifferentiated Adam, and then gave birth to Prophecy when he ate. That is, Prophecy is not an add-on to cover nakedness. It's there from the very beginning. We exist in a space of differentiation and choice right now: but God's Light shines true through all that differentiated choice we are given, we simply have to open our eyes and make the right choice (to follow the Light of Prophecy), in order to find that Truth that runs through all we perceive in life (to heal ourselves, to reform, to bring back the Body).

We are necessarily clothed from the beginning. Our clothing has always been a straight path, a straight light, even if we cover it up with our own choices.

Of course, in the case of other cosmologies (e.g., Gnosticism), we could well be in a state in which there *was *such a thing as an "before"
Adam fell and an "after", and in which Adam's sin *was *(or was meant to be) one of falling away from the Light toward darkness. In contrast, the
Qu'ranic understanding is one in which we are completely in the Light -- though, momentarily, there is (and always has been) a danger of the sparks of that Light getting locked within the dialectic of the space of perception -- our choices and decisions, including the perception that we are apart from God, a perception that our mind takes on the form of an ego ... But while this danger is imminent (because we are constantly choosing), it never actualised: because the movement from that danger is to channel the sparks into the circuit of Light, to reconstitute and unlock the Light of the Mind of God, spread all throughout that space of choice, through our choices of Light and our own perception of it, and our consequent path to Prophecy.

So Musa and Iman, we are in agreement, I think: there is no darkness, but a momentary danger that can always be averted. (I think Tailor was talking about something similar -- his garment is multi-coloured, but does not afford any openings.)

Love and Light,

Musa

Adam fell and an "after", and in which Adam's sin *was *(or was meant to be) one of falling away from the Light toward darkness. In contrast, the
Qu'ranic understanding is one in which we are completely in the Light -- though, momentarily, there is (and always has been) a danger of the sparks of that Light getting locked within the dialectic of the space of perception -- our choices and decisions, including the perception that we are apart from God, a perception that our mind takes on the form of an ego ... But while this danger is imminent (because we are constantly choosing), it never actualised: because the movement from that danger is to channel the sparks into the circuit of Light, to reconstitute and unlock the Light of the Mind of God, spread all throughout that space of choice, through our choices of Light and our consequent path to Prophecy.

So Musa and Iman, we are in agreement, I think: there is no darkness, but a momentary danger that can always be averted. (I think Tailor was talking about something similar -- his garment is multi-coloured, but does not afford any openings.)

Love and Light,

Musa

Musa's question: what is the meaning of Prophecy with respect to humanity's condition, moving from undifferentiation into a space of differentiation?

Musa said:

We are necessarily clothed from the beginning. Our clothing has always been a straight path, a straight light, even if we cover it up with our own choices.

I think this is the key, for me -- in a way, my first response was this:
the very moment God creates our journey and our human forms, then, in a way, there is Prophecy. I mean, everything is a clothing, a covering made of straight light. Prophecy as presence itself is everywhere immediately, in all choices and all options that the human is confronted with, and every road that unfolds before our eyes. If God's light shines through everything, then all the choices that confront the human are pre-configured to be "of" Prophecy, in their straight light nature (because, after all, God's Light is nothing more, nor less, than precisely Prophecy).

But on the other hand, this is somewhat unsatisfactory, because Musa would probably be the first to admit that most people don't see that
Prophecy. Or, at least, they (the people) are often confused about whether they are actually seeing it or not. And it gets even more confusing -- because suddenly the people get to a point where they start to doubt there is any straight light, some atheists, for example. I don't really know what the atheist confronts, not having been one (obviously having only
*faith *in God, I must assume everything that is perceivable is made of
Light, the choices and options in life are always "of" the light). But I think it is fair to say that some people might actually claim that the garment is ragged, that the garment is tattered and in need of repair or has simply been (momentarily) lost or discarded.

I can't deny this: because Musa agrees that there are dangers of sparks getting locked within the dialectic of the space of perception, or, in other words, that some people lose their garment. So I wonder what the form of this losing is, if our clothing is always there?

All people are given the garment, we can say, because Musa said that the very light of God is everything and pervades throughout and all choices have the potential to be "of" this light.

Well, I know -- from personal experience -- that the people lose their garment.
It seems to me that some of my friends have lost it completely, while others -- I would say the majority of the world -- has got the garment, but with many holes.

As for my experience -- I'd like to be corrected if I am wrong here -- but I think that every human (the majority at least) follows a very similar path to lose this garment. There is one garment issue "faced" by the
Muslims -- it is the verse of the hijab in the Qur'an. In a sense, reading that verse is the ultimate moment of losing the garment.

It gets very close to it for the Christians: but again, perhaps there is a little loop hole in the Gospel: I do seem to recall that, when confronted by the Roman authorities, the disciples were able to flee into the desert.
Now, the Muslims are all bad at that, as it were -- like bad spacemen, they do not possess a "desert-o-meter" like James Kirk in the film.

So it's about losing the garment ... How can the garment be lost, if it is there everywhere? Losing is a form of comprehension. Prophecy is an allover garment. "Our" garment is one of comprehension: it is worn and comprehended by the people. But the people in general -- or, at least,
Muslims -- don't comprehend it: they are not Prophetic. Losing the garment is the consequence/outcome/realisation/reception/comprehension of God's Prophecy (because garment = light of Allah). Hence all the "real" people have lost their garment: they have stood in the *presence* of
Prophecy and comprehended this presence. There are parts to comprehension:
from no comprehension to one-eyeed comprehension to two-eyeed comprehension to comprehensive comprehension. All levels of comprehension of what
Prophecy is.

Prophecy/light-of-Allah allover the garment itself is what we don't realise: but Prophecy/light-of-Allah as loss is what we realise.

In a sense, Adam's loss of the garment is identical to his re-acquisition of the garment in Prophetic form. Because his choice to comprehend the
Hijab verse is a form of acquiring God-consciousness -- a form of comprehending the Prophecy that is allover him.

When we cease to follow these "what ifs" in all decisions that we make in life: all paths laid out within the light of Allah are then accepted and seen as straight and we walk it with a Prophetic balance:

And follow not that of which you have no knowledge: indeed, the sense of hearing, the sight, and the heart -- all those will be questioned of.

And when people cease to follow these "what ifs": then they will know a garment that is allover.

Of course, Musa is right: that we should then focus on weaving this back together, as individuals. This is a (final) re-acquisition of the garment and is the key to the garden of Eden. Re-acquisition

At the risk of derailing this thread -- in a sense it already is derailed, and I am not sure how or even if we can get it back on track -- I have written a piece that would be useful to read to assess my perspective on the "loss" of the garment:
http://thegoodgarment.wordpress.com/2010/06/06/the-prophetic-voice-madness-and-the-brother-of-lying/
(The third part of the piece relates to clothing/nakedness.)

The main point of the piece is that we are all given the garment, and are sometimes permitted to lose it, though God's love is constant:

'You cannot run from the moment. You cannot hide from the moment. Don't panic. The Light exists already in your life at that moment, whatever form it takes. It's not a new Light, coming in from outside. It's always been part of your life. And if you welcome it, and bring it back into the Light of the garment, you will return to a state of balance. The Light will shine through, and you will be the Light, shining out, for others. You will be a prophet.'

Love and Light,

I assume that we are talking here about perception of garment = garment of perception = God as present within our space of choices, a space of differentiation = our human space of reading, of life ...

That said, my query would be: How can we square this with a) the "you" that is questioned as distinct from "perceives"/"chooses" and b) with the fact that we were all (initially at least) formed "in the image" (as the
Elohist tradition tells us) -- formed as the Word, formed as the light (as the Muslim narrations tell us) ...

If there is garment everywhere, but we lose it, or don't find it, what happens to THAT form then?

I wonder if this will help clarify my position. I don't believe in a fall as such. There was no such thing as an undifferentiated human. So it was never like that and I can't square that with Genesis.

Instead, we were always made in the image, the Word, because that's what
God is. So, to borrow some Kabbalic and Sufi terminology, the closest thing I could say to Adam and Eve is that, in some sense, they are our upper
Self, what we might call the Real human, the human in the image of God.
They are actually a "you" that doesn't fall, that isn't subject to differentiation.

The "you/us" talking about losing garments, however, is lower self, ego.
The lower self is not yet in the image, is differentiated from the beginning and is, in fact, our mind/soul taken from the first breath of
God. So, that "you" is formed of the choices/perception, but is not, as yet, formed as Adam/Eve: that "you" can lose the garment.

So it might sound like I'm talking about two completely separate things:
the garment of differentiation and the garment of the Real human. But basically for me, all humanity can become human: as opposed to the
Genesis understanding which often results in people thinking that they can never be the "Real" person. For me, the garment of differentiation is a means by which we can move from ego into that Real human.
Differentiation and choice are a gift -- and the sparks within the choice is the means by which we become the Real human -- we become clothed in
Allah's Light. And God's love and mercy is such that that is something that is not only possible, given to us through our garment of differentiation, but through the gift of Prophecy, is something that can happen to each one of us.

Love and Light,

Musa

But regarding loss and gain of the garment: I suppose that depends a lot on how you stand (where you are) in relation to your own comprehension of all that ... :)

Right. If we occupy a space of differentiation (choice, perception): and this space is nothing but the light, then the question is how does anything "tragic" arise from within such a space? (And yet TRAGEDY arises, and we have feelings about that tragedy.) The reason is simply because the nature of that space is PRECISELY comprehension/clothing, which sometimes gets "lost" or "mislaid". At one level it is God's light shining directly upon us --
shining in such a way as to make itself directly known to us, as presence.
But this immediate Divine presence upon us becomes the means by which we make choices (because choices are nothing but forms of comprehension/garmenting). That immediacy is something that is comprehended -- or,
alternatively, is PRECISLEY what we fail to comprehend. What is failure of comprehension? (A black hole in the fabric of the garment -- or ragged edges that require a patch job.)

L&L,

TT

I re-read some of this thread and note that, since Adam did in fact eat from the Tree of Knowledge, humanity was, in fact, created in a state of differentiation -- the process of unfolding and, ultimately, choice and evaluation of True over False is necessarily one that requires us to occupy a differentiated space (i.e., to have egos). It's only through this journey of unfolding and choice that Adam is clothed and the broken shards are reformed -- the shattering being of God to be reconstituted across the space of differentiation (what would be perceived as a continuum from the human perspective, because God is beyond even that). It's a movement towards wholeness through a process of re-constituting broken shards, but one that is only enabled by occupying a space of broken shards.

I think I am with you on this. Yes -- the "you" is formed as the "broken shards" (as you say, differentiated) -- I'd call it a fragmented soul, but that again is a space of differentiation (or of scattered sparks of light, within our own mind's journey). And we could say, as you do, that this process of scattering is the ultimate garment of God, so to speak (because we cannot see it).

In fact, to be even more precise, your description of scattering is what I call the Feminine aspect of the Godhead (and hence the reason why previous prophets' journeys often have to do "without" the Qur'anic hijab and why the final Seal says: "women are like unto fields unto which you may go freely -- but do not draw near to prayer if you have not washed yourselves" -- meaning, don't draw near to the prayer if you have not located and unlocked the sparks within the Feminine nature of the soul's scattering).

... and the "you" that is questioned as distinct from "perceives"/"chooses" ...

This is an excellent point -- or, at least, one of the key points for Sufism. The "you" that is questioned is, in fact, the Real human, as I mentioned before. What I didn't mention was that this "you" is precisely what Sufism calls the Ruhanic aspect of the soul. It is, from one perspective, *the* "you" that is questioned in this ayat: and this aspect of the soul, this questioning, this garment: is what is meant by an upper level of the soul, an upper self so to speak.

The lower "you" is the one that I spoke about: all kinds of good stuff comes from that.

Q: Does the garment have a "feel" about it? A texture. Why is it so hard to describe the garment to others? Because language, our current language games and current discourse -- are garments, the ones we adorn ourselves with.

The garment is nothing more nor less than *the language games we play in life*.

And whenever we make "choices", we are either following the rules of the games -- or we are innovating within that game.

But it gets more serious on us -- in a sense that we ourselves are "players" who are not merely "following" or "inventing" rules, but who are coming into being by virtue of their journey through the game as players.

The garment is choice -- the journey of choice, the choices we are given, the choices we make, the choices that make us, the process of choice -- but this is a journey of games. And each choice is a choice to play to the rules or to break them, to innovate, to break/create/innovate upon the languages we weave and are woven from.

That's what makes life a moral space, a moral journey: to speak in words is to play language games. And moral action comes from self-reflexively, critically contemplating the rules of the games we play.

What happens when we say there *is* no God and no choice: we are just playing games that are part of a wider language game played by geneticists, linguists, philosophers of language, and theologians, we are also playing games with the symbols of the game. So why should it be important to play that game: because we care about our soul's survival -- or is it because we love our fellow players and wish the best for them. The game of games.

What the Imam is essentially performing is exactly this kind of meta-level, self-reflexive analysis on the language games we play -- and the choices we make -- from breaking and recombining the words (the ayat of choice) we've been given. Not so much to answer the question -- just to take us into a higher level of insight, another level in terms of our journey into the Real.

Oh and btw, another important word for our journey: the Imam didn't say it, but we might say it: what do you mean by "Real"? The Real. The truly
Real. What does it mean to comprehend or know the Real or the Truly Real?

I believe in an upper Adamic self and a Feminine lower self, in such a circuit, running across all choices.

This is excellent. Because the two poles are exactly choice's two directions, its input and its output, its north and south. So you're saying that the two poles exist across all choices we make -- but when we are in balance, these poles become linked "below", so to speak and Prophecy is felt as a function of our choices.

Oh yes, we are in accord here on the Prophecy business, so I am hoping what I am about to say is a more useful variation on a theme. For me, Prophecy itself is not below us so much, but an upper function of choices that "allows" for input to be felt in self-reflexive circuitry.

Why is its existence necessary? Because Prophecy is the means by which true choices can be made -- because Prophetic self as such is the "Real"
above us, so to speak, the Real self, to know/feel this is to be saved/on the sirat.

The game that you speak of above is precisely what I am calling a *locally*
Adamic circuit: it's not adamic across all games, only within a single game
-- it's locally adamic.

What happens when you say there *is* no God and no choice: we are just playing games that are part of a wider language game played by geneticists, linguists, philosophers of language, and theologians, we are also playing games with the symbols of the game. So why should it be important to play that game: because we care about our soul's survival -- or is it because we love our fellow players and wish the best for them. The game of games.

Love -- the garment/choice is Love, or something that runs through, under, over the names I have just given you.

Ah, I must reread the previous night's entries more carefully I suppose, as it is exactly this "game of games" view that I think is very close to what I am trying to say!

When we enter a game, we play at being locally Adamic: we are not Adamic, but we are playing locally. That is, in and of itself, something completely non-local, transcendent, supra-game like.

I call it locally adamic, because we are playing locally -- what the hell is "the self" but a game we play to pass the time until we have played/learned enough to leave it all behind?

And so what is the relation of this locally adamic circuitry to the Globally
Adamic? It seems to me that the "game of games" speech act is a precursor (not a prerequisite, nor something that can be simply equated) to the globally adamic.

And so I think the real answer to your last question (what is the Real) lies in this relation. It's why I am keen on the upper adamic self -- it's exactly a description of how the globally adamic is felt within the self-reflexive acts of locally adamic games.

So the relation from globally adamic to locally adamic is felt by us as the "Real".

Love and Light,

Mu

Oh, this is a very helpful explanation! Of course, your distinction is one that has been fundamental to my view since the beginning.

Yes, the global/local is, for me, very much part of the Real, so this clarification also assists there as well.

So the Real is, for me, something that is not so much "felt" in the sense of something witnessed, but rather something that "is", running through all the games played, but is the "meaning" of the globally adamic/locally adamic circuit.

What do you (and what does anyone else) think of this?

As usual, not sure if I've read the previous comments carefully enough, but it seems to me that there are two other things on our agenda: 1) is it accurate to speak of an "outside" to choices at all, and 2) if so, is this nature of the "outside" the reason behind why we choose (or, more pessimistically, the reason for confusion/tragedy).

The (pessimistic) point about "tragedy" comes from some interesting feedback I am getting from other readers -- basically, the argument that focusing on the multiplicity and relative truth of the games we play -- which, as we are defining it here, is a multiplicity of locally adamic circuits -- ends up as simply too much information and, rather than enlightenment (a locally adamic tragedy), can only lead to utter confusion (which follows from the notion that enlightenment is necessarily local to a "self" that --
while not fixed -- is necessarily defined by a single locally adamic circuit and hence -- in this space of locally adamic circuits -- is inauthentic at worst or confusing at best (and can lead us to stop playing the game we were occupied with, rather than weave any deeper, etc).

But I presume the idea of the globally adamic is the basis of your (and now my) answer to that, right? So I wonder what the form would take, exactly.

Love and Light,

Mu

I suppose it depends on what we think "witnessing" is. I think of Prophecy as basically ... well, like Joseph and Prophecy kind of thing. Prophetic presence as ... well, perfect ... without flaw I suppose. Without sin. Within the imaanent plane.

Yeah, it's really integral to my way of saying things, so not so much a basis for my answer as much as the answer itself :)

Q: How do you go about working out what a straight path is in any particular context?

Perhaps by choice's very nature, we must attempt to answer this question for the sake of the Ummah.

The straight path -- the straight path as *implication *-- is only found or encountered as an intersection of "locally adamic" language games.

And so the straight path is found by playing these games.

But it gets more serious on us -- in a sense that we ourselves are "players" who are not merely "following" or "inventing" rules, but who are coming into being by virtue of their journey through the game as players.

The straight path is input to the player in self-reflexive circuitry. And we have a tendency to block that circuitry. And so we encounter the straight path when we find ourselves unblocking it.

What if the players decide to cease to play the game? For example, I personally get into moods/states where I do not feel like weaving choice -- I feel like not doing maths so much, not blogging, not working, etc. And then I have to enter into a state of repentance: asking myself what went wrong, how did I get out of balance here? What locally adamic rules was I playing with to allow for this imbalance to occur? And it's at that point that I'm re-entered into locally adamic gameplay, because I've (locally) changed/reconsidered/re-evaluated the local ayat/rules of the game.

Of course it's not a single player game, so I'd assume a similar thing works there for others.

Love and Light,

Mu the Tailor

Okay, with the above clarification we are in true accord on this. If I was being precise, I would say that the globally adamic is indeed the meaning of the globally/locally adamic circuitry ... there are other circuits, other local games that are key to salvation as well, so its meaning is also contained within these other games, particularly in the game whose player pieces are the locally adamic circuit (a kind of hyper meta-game that I am keen on).

Anyhow, yes, the globally Adamic felt self-reflexively is key to the answer here.

So the Real for me (I should say for my predicate logic, or language game, but I seem to have forgotten the difference between speaking about life and speaking about metalogic and language -- for me/in my language, the sentence "life is a language game" means exactly the same thing as the sentence
"my speech is a language game" -- so I say it only from that perspective) is exactly this feeling. And it is the meaning of the globally/locally adamic circuitry because, in a sense, that circuitry's input/output is this
"Real" feeling.

I would like to add a further rider that, yes, this globally adamic game that runs through everything also happens to be one of the more immediate (in the sense of most felt) players in all our locally adamic games. Which is to say, we all pass through this, so it we can "sense" it/be aware of its rules at all times.

This is significant, because it also means that we need to be careful of a particular kind of local player piece that we sometimes encounter --
specifically, it is a piece (not a player) that seems to denote "the
Globally Adamic" -- by which I actually mean, a player piece whose function is to denote that which cannot be signified (to be a transcendent signifier) -- I am talking about things like the Anti-Christ in the Abrahamic traditions for example. We need to be careful of these pieces, and be self-aware of their local role as player pieces within the locally adamic circuits. Of course the Real felt by us all will "transcend" all locally adamic circuitry, in this way. We should not be like the Christians, expecting a second coming. But on the other hand, we should not deny the role of the Anti-Christ in denoting, locally adamicly, our globally adamic input/output.

Thanks for pressing me on this a bit -- and for our conversation, as it is very enjoyable for me! Even in the spaces of locally adamic, tragedy never made its way into my life :)

Q) Okay, can this process of locally adamic self-reflexively felt globally adamic input/output be described as a kind of emotional feedback loop to the player -- "I feel the straigt path in my heart"?

This is very close to what I am thinking -- but I don't think of it as
"emotional" -- I think of it more as pure (not symbolic) pleasure, or even ... well, the Pleasure. It's almost like an ... er ... orgasm. That kind of ...

Oh, not like that.

I prefer to call it "God".

Love and Light,

Musa the Tailor

Hey if its good enough for you, it's good enough for me!

Perhaps your pleasure, the pleasure of existence is a side-effect of the exchange process between locally adamic and globally adamic space? Another way of putting it is that when we get in a state in which the globally adamic space is opened up, this is what I would call "pleasure" in the sense I am talking about it. Getting to THAT space is a means of "seeing" things as they are.

Of course, "meaning" or "true meaning" of life is another way of talking about this ... It seems to me that at most we can live this kind of thing, even though at other times we can't and don't.

Q) Regarding God and pleasure -- what is the the pleasure of God in
Creation? What is His purpose?

Speaking about *my language game* -- my language game of language games
-- "God" = "pleasure". So I cannot speak of one with respect to the other -- pleasure and God are synonyms. I'm playing a language game here --
the language game of lives -- not metalogic or theology -- just like I assume everyone else on this blog is. So if I see someone lining up a bunch of beads before me -- and someone says to me -- "Oh! Is your
Islamic practice simply a form of autistic, self-indulgent, mindless
Zen?" -- then I can't answer that in metalogical terms -- I will have to get all emotional and say -- "Yes, guilty, I suppose!" I'm sorry I've led you on with my other writing -- that's just what I do after dark sometimes.

I know that's a non-answer. When it comes to what *you* think and feel, however, I feel very privileged to be allowed into your language game, to learn some of it. Whatever you think about the Real is Truth, and I'm eager to learn more.

Love and Light,

Q: Okay, I suppose I should reply in a similar vein -- the writer-as-player-piece within the locally adamic circuit of this blog is "me", and this globally adamic input/output is "my pleasure", whatever that is for "me".

But it could well be autistic in one sense. But that is quite an interesting point, not merely a non-answer, rather, a flash of the Real. Because this is what makes the globally adamic an unobtainable limit for me (and probably for everyone, I imagine) -- something that we are not allowed to grasp, because autism is built into our language games (hence the locally adamic is, at best, a precursor as opposed to the "Real"
above us). Not grasping it is probably the cornerstone of righteously navigating this world.

The fact that we do "play" certain language games with a globally adamic
"limit" -- means that God is everywhere in our games: but not in the sense that the globally adamic is something immanent in each game we play locally -- rather, as you say, its something we can't talk about and it's autism that is the real limit.

So instead, locally, I think of the globally adamic (in relation to God's pleasure in creation) as exactly what people call "signs" -- that's the pleasure of creation: that the Real, unknowable, autistic -- globally adamic nature of existence (aka a player in each game we play) is what we call "signs".

"God's satisfaction", "True purpose" and whatever else you want to call it -- as a globally adamic player in our locally adamic circuits is what we call "signs", "hints", "clues". But we are not allowed to complete a locally adamic game, that is, we are not allowed to "complete the face of God": we are kept from that -- we will necessarily be frustrated, at a local level. It's like looking at the clouds in the sky and seeing signs -- we're not allowed to construct a face (from the clues we get in the sky, for example).

Maybe we can call this frustration part of the Divine plan -- and the key to getting closer to God ...

Q: Okay, I suppose I should reply in a similar vein -- the writer-as-player-piece within the locally adamic circuit of this blog is "me", and this globally adamic input/output is "my pleasure", whatever that is for "me".

I could not say because *I am not writing this, I am Iman who is dreaming this, and so I am the me that this question addresses* :)

(Mu, thanks for letting me crash at your place. My head is still a bit fuzzy, but I think we're on the same wavelength. When we met up at the mosque,
I think you were speaking about signs being local. For me, locally adamic circuits do indeed contain and admit of a signifier of globally adamic input ... however, importantly, this signifier is *within *such a circuit, even though it self-reflexively refers to the globally adamic.

By admitting of such a signifier (what we sometimes call a "transcendent signifier"), we are able to receive the globally adamic input/output. The presence of the transcendent signifier in the circuit -- though, itself a local player piece, a signifier like any other -- the presence of that piece means that the game we are playing locally throws a flag of caution and brings us into what you call a state of frustration. This, for me, is what people call the "true purpose" of locally adamic circuits -- to bring us closer to God, so to speak, through frustration. Through locally adamic input/output games that lead us into globally adamic input/output.

Are you saying that we might also be frustrated with all locally adamic games? In the sense that these games do indeed provide us with a local input/output (including the language game of life)?

And that we get frustrated with the ambiguity of it all, the lack of definitive understanding? Is that the key to getting closer ...

And what of the face then? Is it that we are unable to assemble a model of what this input/output *is* exactly, and that is part of the meaning of the locally adamic circuitry?

Iman

Q) ... a state of frustration. This, for me, is what people call the "true purpose" of locally adamic circuits — to bring us closer to God, so to speak, through frustration. Through locally adamic input/output games that lead us into globally adamic input/output.

Are you saying that we might also be frustrated with all locally adamic games? In the sense that these games do indeed provide us with a local input/output (including the language game of life)?

Yes, we feel this frustration locally adamicly (and we can be self-reflexive about this frustration locally adamicly -- that is, we can locally adamicly reflect upon the global output/input -- the global limits of locally adamic input/output is a local transcendence of locally adamic language games, after all). Locally adamicly, we can be frustrated with the ungraspable nature of the Real.

But locally adamic frustration is the *meaning *(or true purpose if you like)
of locally adamic games. That is, the locally adamic "limit" is actually not a limit at all, but, rather, the output/input is the meaning (aka a player
= a ghost in the machine) that transcends (locally) above our local games and throws a flag of caution = brings us closer to God.

Importantly, globally adamicly (in our mind, when we think about it -- from
*our *perspective, so to speak), we are not frustrated with locally adamic games. Well, that is, we only *are *locally adamic games. And, in a certain sense that is globally adamic (globally adamic, rather than globally, so no longer a perspective, a view from an "our"), we could say (paraphrasing
Shakespeare)

Locally we are the players,
Globally adamicly we are but mere player pieces.

So the meaning of the global is the locally adamic ... and the meaning of the locally adamic is globally adamic. Isomorphic, in fact.

Okay I think we are in accord, and we are probably diverging into word games (my area) and I can see why you'd say what is below. But for the record, in my little world, the globally adamic circuit does indeed have what you called an input/output. The globally adamic circuit exists at all levels of granularity, so to speak (hence there is no local and global, as in your cosmology, only local), but input/output are appropriate terms for its nature.

I am sure we can talk about a "face of God" quite safely locally adamicly.

For me we are not allowed to construct/join the dots of a face, however.
This is because, while I also believe that the locally adamic circuit's transcendent signifier admits a globally adamic input/output (that's what I called local transcendence moment before), the input is locally adamic
(clues and hints -- signs -- from which we cannot construct a face), and the output is global adamic: it brings us closer to God.

Here's another analogy:

The clues/hints/signs are dots on a dice. We're not allowed to construct a face by joining the dots. However, when we roll the dice, the number that pops up is the locally adamic input felt by us globally adamicly.

I believe what you call a locally adamic circuit is something that is globally adamic for me. In which case, your transcendent input admits of a locally adamic output (the circuit that your are entering into locally is its global limit, for me). And, importantly, the locally adamic output is my globally adamic input as well.

That is, we both share the same global output, let's call it YHWH
(YHVH/YHYH for me, Allah for you). When we understand the nature of locally adamic circuits, God is everywhere in our games: but not in the sense that the globally adamic is something immanent in each game we play locally — rather, as you say, its something we can’t talk about and it’s autism that is the real limit.

So instead, locally, I think of the globally adamic (in relation to God’s pleasure in creation) as exactly what people call “signs” — that's the pleasure of creation: that the Real, unknowable, autistic -- globally adamic nature of existence (aka a player in each game we play) is what we call “signs”.

Our difference, I think, is solely how we phrase things.

And, importantly, the locally adamic output is my globally adamic input as well.

Yes, exactly -- particularly your notion of the input is a global input for me, rather than an input of a locally oriented closed system. I think this might be the main difference.

We share the same belief that the locally adamic circuit receives global input and provides global output, and that this means the God is everywhere in our games: but not in the sense that the globally adamic is something immanent in each game we play locally — rather, as you say, its something we can’t talk about and it’s autism that is the real limit.

I think we share the belief that the signs *are *(or are part of) the globally adamic input/output. And also the belief that the signs are "dot-like"
in that we cannot, locally adamicly -- though the God is there in them, we cannot *talk* about this globally adamic nature immanently, so to speak, and they provide a locally adamic input into the circuit that is, as I say, is, from your perspective, a *player *that enters into it from ...
well, from my perspective, is the player that is you.

It's just that for me, the player is not a player piece, the player is not locally adamic, the player is globally adamic (globally adamic, rather than globally, so no longer a perspective, a view from an "our"), we could say (paraphrasing Shakespeare):

I would query this assertion regarding what you call the player (YHVH)
having an adamic nature, global or otherwise. As you say, this player is the input for the locally adamic games we play -- I'd like to call that player a question (YHWH as a question).
It's just that for me, the player is not a player piece, the player is not locally adamic, the player is globally adamic

And from this input, locally adamic games generate locally adamic output, but their "real" or "true meaning" (meaning of their locally adamic
output) is that they act as a "local transcendence" that bring us into the *global* adamic state of having YHWH "here", in our games -- a sort of
"YHVH-in-immanence", if you like.

Now of course, your question (the YHWH/Theophanic input) cannot be anthropomorphically conceived. The globally adamic can only act as a sort of "meaning" to locally adamic games, in this sense of immanent transcendence. So I am cautious to attribute an adamic nature to the question.

I wonder if we really are in agreement, or have simply found a useful way of phrasing this so we're in accord. Do you think your reading is just a useful way of talking about it, or do you really think that YHWH is adamic, in some way? It seems a bit like asking whether to talk about the sun setting is a helpful way of discussing physics (probably not) or astronomy
(yes, perfectly fine).

I would query this assertion regarding what you call the player (YHVH) having an adamic nature, global or otherwise. As you say, this player is the input for the locally adamic games we play — I’d like to call that player a question (YHWH as a question).

My point is that this distinction blurs for me -- so let me answer specifically to this question by blurring it. What you say YHWH is/acts as, the Question :
I believe it's adamic in some very loose fashion.

In the sense that I was saying: God's pleasure in creation is the local transcendence/local immanence/limits/output/signifier of globally adamic input, that is exactly what the locally adamic is. The locally adamic is
God's pleasure in creation.

Now if God's pleasure in creation the true meaning of locally adamic games, then YHWH, as question/God's pleasure is part of locally adamic circuits.

Importantly, there are no globally adamic circuits *per se* -- there's no
"globalness" apart from locally adamic games. But YHWH is adamic because, in a question put to locally adamic games (globally adamic input, the global transcendence/global immanence of a locally adamic circuit), there is God's pleasure in creating these games (and input and output).

As for YHWH's nature -- I would say I am on the side of those Abrahamic literalists and have it as a proper name -- for God/Creation. But a name that refers to Creation, the generation of Creation as locally adamic circuits, as locally adamic input, as locally adamic output. YHWH/Allah is
God's pleasure in Creation. As questioner/satisfaction in question, the
YHWH/Theophanic input is generation.

So while locally adamic input and output can only act as a sort of "meaning" to locally adamic games, in this sense of immanent transcendence, the key is that input and output are what locally adamic games are about.

Locally adamic games are what the universe is, for me.

You mention astronomy, physics and physics. For me, these distinctions blur.

I guess at this point we could probably go on, but I'd just like to get a sense of how close we really are. As you said:

we have simply found a useful way of phrasing this so we're in accord. I'd have to say yes, I think we've arrived at a state of full accord. I guess I'm just saying there are no closed locally adamic games for me -- only completely transformative globally adamic circuits -- but that these circuits have a "locally adamic output", which we might confuse as a closed game. However, once we've "transcended" into a globally adamic
Framework, we can keep popping the "locally adamic output hood", so to speak, and realise it was always just globally adamic input and output.

I'd go further and say we play these globally adamic circuits in conjunction/collaboration with each other, according to rules and roles we individually make up in our locally adamic components to the circuit.

Iman

Agreed, I think that's a perfect description of our accord on this -- in fact, so perfect that I'm really happy with it! I could not have expressed it more clearly.

A few last wee queries regarding implications for the adamic nature of the names of God (within locally adamic input/output):

First, that your Allah/YHWH is a fourfold name (and God is also threefold
-- locally) -- and that globally adamic games are as much about communication
(locally adamic input) as they are about globally adamic output.
Communication is bidirectional (locally adamic input) from our locally adamic perspective.

Second, we only play these circuits in collaboration with each other, locally adamicly, by wearing veils.

Finally, we do this globally adamic, universal Truth through locally adamic games of marriage.

I know this is getting kinda crazy, but let me know your thoughts :)

Love and Light,

Mu

Yes, certainly locally adamic input is bidirectional, so God (both locally and globally) is often thought of also as reception/a womb, and the nature of "immanence" is sometimes termed the Shekhina, Sophia, the bride, etc.

That said, I am okay with viewing the globally adamic as being close to a black hole. In fact the whole concept of locally adamic input into the globally adamic, as I understand it is, from a physics perspective, something like saying that the black hole has ... quantum fluctuations at the edge of its event horizon. And so it's a bit of an abuse to terms to even speak of a bidirectional input into the globally adamic (locally adamic input). I suppose we might say locally adamic input is directional, but appears bidirectional through our locally adamic output (because locally adamic output -- the result of the game -- is to give us a globally adamic input. So for example, a question or hint we hear -- locally adamic input -- appears bidirectional because our locally adamic output makes it into one).

I wonder what you think about bidirectional globally adamic input/output, in terms of the names. I certainly believe that we can hear God speaking, as well as speak (in local prayer and perception), so surely there is a local adamic bidirectional link. But I've got problems with the idea of a globally adamic bidirectional link. Particularly with attributing an adamic nature to anything globally adamic ... It's like asking whether there was light before the sun and earth, in a sense.

Veils are also key for me (along with communication) -- as you know, because we played a locally adamic game in which this was the answer to quite a different question ;)

I guess on the issue of marriage, we are in agreement.

I'm sure you can explain the globally adamic input/output to me -- and it in a helpful, non-antiquated way of talking about it -- but I'm a bit confused (though completely happy with our shared local state) with the way you talk about globally adamic input/output. Perhaps it is just terminology now ... but a black hole locally adamic input seems much nicer to me.

Anyhoo, you're a true muslim, and a great gamer, a friend too, so I can dig on it, man.

I should probably make the point -- regarding the globally adamic nature of YHWH, and input/output -- is in a flux. That is, the tension of locally adamic games/conversations generates a flux in the locally adamic black hole of God. This would mean that, in an important sense, there are "multiplicities" of God -- in relation to each locally adamic game we have played, there is a locally adamic trace (within the locally adamic black hole of God), which are basically like "memories" or "aspects". Not literally of course, I doubt God has a head, but if they were literal memories, they would be like dreams or past lives.

These locally adamic traces -- these dream memories within God's globally adamic black hole generate output back into the local adamic games. So for example ... say I was dreaming of a blue cat playing a kazoo, at some point in a locally adamic game, the dream memory of God might trigger a mental image of a blue cat. I don't *mean *(or even imply) God's dreaming in the sense of dreaming per se, but I mean the "nature" of locally adamic games will ultimately form, at the end of the games, God's (locally adamic)
memory -- and this memory is what generates the *idea* of God's locally adamic perception of everything that is played. So God doesn't directly/truly, really see blue cats, only God-traces (locally adamic) output/generated from playing local games. But we say God's locally adamic black hole is omniscient, so the trace/game idea is the same as perceiving, in a way.

Apologies for the rambly explanation

Perhaps it is just terminology now … but a black hole locally adamic input seems much nicer to me.

Anyhoo, you’re a true muslim, and a great gamer, a friend too, so I can dig on it, man.

Okay, I think the marriage is fine. I’ll come back to the issue of globally adamic input/output/output.

I also think the last question of the black hole is valid — probably it is essentially a terminological debate.

As a test for myself, let me see if I can phrase my way out of the local adamic black hole. First, locally adamicly, I am fine with black holes. I will say, with you, that each locally adamic game is a question into a black hole. They generate a sort of locally adamic memory. Let us call this
"locally adamic output". And I agree that output seems like a global input, but is confusing. However, I am only fine with black holes for locally adamic circuits. I won’t say that the globally adamic is a black hole. And there was light before the sun and earth (this is an adamic truth, incidentally): and so, similarly, there is “something”, not a black hole, that the global axis of input is, so that local adamic outputs can be input into this axis, so there is God’s perception.

What I see then, locally adamicly, is a black hole that is constantly in flux, being fed by the individual locally adamic games’ outputs. But what is globally adamic is simply that this “locally adamic output-in-flux” is
“input” into this “thing” that is not a black hole — and that generates a
“globally adamic output”, which is not just omniscience of the locally adamic black hole (it is something more), and this is what I call the face of
Allah. This is something that, ultimately, is God’s globally adamic nature, that we can’t really talk about.

The above paragraph is something that is locally adamic.

But now I’ll change my voice.

The other problem for me is when we talk of God’s locally adamic attributes —
such as God as immanence — being in relation to the global adamic. I don’t like this characterisation. I don’t really like characterising the adamic
(global or local) as being in relation to anything. This is just a useful way that I’ve found that works locally adamicly for me.

I personally prefer to talk of the black hole (locally adamic perspective) as all there is, except that black holes can take on (locally adamic)
outputs and appear bidirectional. You, on the other hand (locally adamicly) are fine with an additional thing — a “what was before the sun and earth”
type axis or direction of input.

You are correct — we are now talking at cross purposes. I’m fine with that — I’ll keep my locally adamic black hole and you keep your additional axis.

As a gamer, it is important we stay local adamic friends.

Q: It's like asking whether there was light before the sun and earth, in a sense.

I like this a lot. I'm happy that I understand your point -- you don't want to call your globally adamic output (the Allah's Face and God's perception
-- locally) a black hole -- because it is a kind of precursory directional aspect. A direction, or axis of input, for the locally adamic black hole
-- locally adamic input/output -- to be possible.

That's fine by me. We both have no problem viewing God locally adamic as being local adamic output: locally adamic input.

Would you say that the question is a black hole locally adamicly as well? I wouldn't think so. But locally adamic input seems to imply God as input and output is what we mean locally. I don't mind so much (probably never had a problem with it) -- locally adamic input/output being bidirectional.
But it's not a black hole -- it is, as you say, the Face, God's perception (locally). Of course.

If I were to use black holes (locally), then I'd only use them as locally adamic input, not locally adamic input/output. Again no problem, it's just terminology :)

If you don't mind, I will continue to use locally adamic input/output as a black hole. Not the direction for that black hole -- just the locally adamic circuit of locally adamic input-black hole-locally adamic output.
Locally adamic input/output appears, locally adamicly, directional (because it is a local input into a locally adamic black hole) -- but globally generates something we cannot see locally adamicly -- the Face of
Allah -- globally adamic output.

But I'm happy with your characterization of it too :) It's always lovely to clarify things with you.

So, in answer to your question I left myself, I think, by black hole, you literally mean a black hole. While I only mean locally adamic input. I don't mean the direction either. So black holes are fine but the direction is where the light comes from.

I think we are also in agreement on the locally adamic games aspect of things -- all locally adamic games are input into locally adamicly perceived black holes. But that the globally adamic input -- the light of perception before the black hole -- is the point of communication (locally adamic input/output), marriage and the very generation of locally adamic games we speak about: the way in which locally adamic games are
"transmitted" to globally adamic output is via this generation of light.

I'd also like to add a few other points:

* Globally adamic games are a side-effect of locally adamic games -- locally adamic games are intersubjective (between one locally adamic agent, one local player), each player has a black hole locally adamicly, and the black hole acts like a locally adamic input. Locally adamic transmission
(locally adamic games) between local players generates ... locally adamic black holes.

But here's where it all gets crazy. The black holes are globally adamicly like memories (what you called like dreams) "inside" God. And it is within these memories that ... we experience God as locally adamic input and locally adamic output. That is, black holes are a global output and a global input, not just a local input!

I'm probably just reiterating our previous understanding, but from my global adamic perspective, locally adamic games are input that generates locally adamic black holes, which are then in turn a bidirectional global input.

* All locally adamic players have a locally adamic input and output. Locally adamic input/output only refers to the players when considered from the globally adamic perspective (locally adamic players are not a black hole but instead have them as sort of like a shell that allows the locally adamic games to take place).

So locally adamic input/output does not refer to the players. But it is the locally adamic players that, through locally adamic games, generate black holes and form this whole process of locally adamic transmission
(transmission and perception).

* Each local player has what is called a ruh. The ruh is the global aspect (the globally adamic nature) of the local adamic agent. One way of saying it is that the ruh exists outside of the locally adamic black holes, and is "transmitted" between locally adamic circuits. Another way of saying it is that the ruh is the locally adamic player's globally adamic input (their input, not their input/output/black hole). The ruh is always something globally adamic -- it is the local player's locally adamic input as globally adamic input. What is this input? It is light generation, it's
Allah's Light (a candle's wick) that is transmitted through the local adamic shell, into locally adamic games, into locally adamic black holes.

So locally adamic games are transmission of black holes. Globally adamicly, locally adamic games are ruhs or candles (that can burn locally adamic input, black holes).

* Locally adamic output/input is like a candle. And is locally adamic only on one side of the locally adamic picture (the locally adamic player knows locally adamic input and locally adamic output and plays locally adamic games to generate locally adamic black holes).

But the candle has a second global side -- the wick/ruhh -- which goes in the "reverse" direction to form locally adamic black holes, globally adamicly.

Locally adamic transmission is locally adamic input into black holes, formed by this process of locally adamic input -- it "burns" the wick of the candle -- and so globally adamic transmission occurs -- globally adamic input from the locally adamic black holes.

Sorry, I probably could do a better job of explaining those last points. But if you are fine with that, I am, as usual, happy :)

Love and Light,

“locally adamic output”. And I agree that output seems like a global input, but is confusing. However, I am only fine with black holes for locally adamic circuits. I won’t say that the globally adamic is a black hole. And there was light before the sun and earth (this is an adamic truth, incidentally): and so, similarly, there is “something”, not a black hole, that the global axis of input is, so that local adamic outputs can be input into this axis, so there is God’s perception.

What I see then, locally adamicly, is a black hole that is constantly in flux, being fed by the individual locally adamic games’ outputs. But what is globally adamic is simply that this “locally adamic output-in-flux” is
“input” into this “thing” that is not a black hole — and that generates a
“globally adamic output”, which is not just omniscience of the locally adamic black hole (it is something more), and this is what I call the face of
Allah. This is something that, ultimately, is God’s globally adamic nature, that we can’t really talk about.

The above paragraph is something that is locally adamic.

But now I’ll change my voice.

The other problem for me is when we talk of God’s locally adamic attributes —
such as God as immanence — being in relation to the global adamic. I don’t like this characterisation. I don’t really like characterising the adamic
(global or local) as being in relation to anything. This is just a useful

I like this a lot. I'm happy that I understand your point -- you don't want to call your globally adamic output (the Allah's Face and God's perception
-- locally) a black hole -- because it is a kind of precursory directional aspect. A direction, or axis of input, for the locally adamic black hole
-- locally adamic input/output -- to be possible.

That's fine by me. We both have no problem viewing God locally adamic as being local adamic output: locally adamic input.

Would you say that the question is a black hole locally adamicly as well? I wouldn't think so. But locally adamic input seems to imply God as input and output is what we mean locally. I don't mind so much (probably never had a problem with it) -- locally adamic input/output being bidirectional.
But it's not a black hole -- it is, as you say, the Face, God's perception (locally). Of course.

If I were to use black holes (locally), then I'd only use them as locally adamic input, not locally adamic input/output. Again no problem, it's just terminology :)

If you don't mind, I will continue to use locally adamic input/output as a black hole. Not the direction for that black hole -- just the locally adamic circuit of locally adamic input-black hole-locally adamic output.
Locally adamic input/output appears, locally adamicly, directional (because it is a local input into a locally adamic black hole) -- but globally generates something we cannot see locally adamicly -- the Face of
Allah -- globally adamic output.

But I'm happy with your characterization of it too :) It's always lovely to clarify things with you.

So, in answer to your question I left myself, I think, by black hole, you literally mean a black hole. While I only mean locally adamic input. I don't mean the direction either. So black holes are fine but the direction is where the light comes from.

I think we are also in agreement on the locally adamic games aspect of things -- all locally adamic games are input into locally adamicly perceived black holes. But that the globally adamic input -- the light of perception before the black hole -- is the point of communication (locally adamic input/output), marriage and the very generation of locally adamic games we speak about: the way in which locally adamic games are
"transmitted" to globally adamic output is via this generation of light.

I'd also like to add a few other points:

* Globally adamic games are a side-effect of locally adamic games -- locally adamic games are intersubjective (between one locally adamic agent, one local player), each player has a black hole locally adamicly, and the black hole acts like a locally adamic input. Locally adamic transmission
(locally adamic games) between local players generates ... locally adamic black holes.

But here's where it all gets crazy. The black holes are globally adamicly like memories (what you called like dreams) "inside" God. And it is within these memories that ... we experience God as locally adamic input and locally adamic output. That is, black holes are a global output and a global input, not just a local input!

I'm probably just reiterating our previous understanding, but from my global adamic perspective, locally adamic games are input that generates locally adamic black holes, which are then in turn a bidirectional global input.

* All locally adamic players have a locally adamic input and output. Locally adamic input/output only refers to the players when considered from the globally adamic perspective (locally adamic players are not a black hole but instead have them as sort of like a shell that allows the locally adamic games to take place).

So locally adamic input/output does not refer to the players. But it is the locally adamic players that, through locally adamic games, generate black holes and form this whole process of locally adamic transmission
(transmission and perception).

* Each local player has what is called a ruh. The ruh is the global aspect (the globally adamic nature) of the local player. One way of saying it is that the ruh exists outside of the locally adamic black holes, and is "transmitted" between locally adamic circuits. Another way of saying it is that the ruh is the locally adamic player's globally adamic input (their input, not their input/output/black hole). The ruh is always something globally adamic -- it is the local player's locally adamic input as globally adamic input. What is this input? It is light generation, it's
Allah's Light (a candle's wick) that is transmitted through the local adamic shell, into locally adamic games, into locally adamic black holes.

So locally adamic games are transmission of black holes. Globally adamicly, locally adamic games are ruhs or candles (that can burn locally adamic input, black holes).

* Locally adamic output/input is like a candle. And is locally adamic only on one side of the locally adamic picture (the locally adamic player knows locally adamic input and locally adamic output and plays locally adamic games to generate locally adamic black holes).

But the candle has a second global side -- the wick/ruhh -- which goes in the "reverse" direction to form locally adamic black holes, globally adamicly.

Locally adamic transmission is locally adamic input into black holes, formed by this process of locally adamic input -- it "burns" the wick of the candle -- and so globally adamic transmission occurs -- globally adamic input from the locally adamic black holes.

Sorry, I probably could do a better job of explaining those last points. But if you are fine with that, I am, as usual, happy :)

Love and Light,

Okay, I think the marriage is fine.

You were speaking to an angel all this while. My question would be ... why doesn't she answer me back when I ask her such an intimately personal question? She could have said "I love you", rather than "the marriage is fine". And then she did respond in my language, rather than as a bird flying away or some such. Why not?

Ah well, I suppose she might still be embarrassed because I didn't ask her a personal question. Nevertheless, I feel bad she didn't write either -- she knows I checked back to her notebook to see why.

Oh well, I believe her.

Anyway, I left a question for myself regarding globally adamic ... well, let me see if I can answer it before reading her reply ...

The idea is that there is a local adamic perspective, locally adamic input, locally adamic output (both black hole/fire and direction/candle) and local adamic games. Then there is a "higher-level" globally adamic
perspective, that "views" the locally adamic stuff, providing (locally)
adamic input and globally adamic output. Globally adamic input is what we were talking about here: direction/candles. Why? Because that's how I view globally adamic output: globally adamic output is the Face of
Allah ... locally adamicly, at least, seen locally adamicly as an input.

The locally adamic black holes, as dreams and memories, "inside" God, are, in fact, the globally adamic input and globally adamic output.

Q: It has been asked how these locally adamic games are formed. It’s as clear as daylight: this blog is a locally adamic game.

As for the globally adamic, it’s still a bit unclear.

So the globally adamic is an input-output into/of the locally adamic? But
I’m still unsure as to what the generation of the locally adamic derives from the Face of God then. And what the locally adamic games are with respect to that Face.

No. I need to be careful here, because of course all this is theologically problematic because I have no wish to equate the face of God to an input. The globally adamic is an input/output into/of the locally adamic. That is, it is the globally adamic output/input, globally adamic input/output. How can this be? Because the globally adamic is an input/output, or input/output.

Locally adamicly, there is locally adamic output. Globally adamicly, locally adamic output does NOT mean the globally adamic is an input, but instead there are candles, locally adamic players and locally adamic games, all of which have a "reverse" (global) aspect that, when combined, form locally adamic output (as globally adamic input as locally adamic input, globally adamic output as locally adamic output), locally adamic input (as globally adamic input as locally adamic input, globally adamic output as locally adamic input).

Locally adamic players ... their candles extend down to the globally adamic. Their input is locally adamic input, the wick of globally adamic input to locally adamic black holes. And so "we" generate locally adamic black holes, in essence, through our wick/ruh being burnt through locally adamic games. But this process, when combined with all locally adamic players and their locally adamic games, is, in fact, locally adamic output.

We are talking about locally adamic circuits here, but viewed globally adamicly.

Now, it is important to note that the globally adamic is both input and output, but never an input to the locally adamic! It is an output globally adamicly. The locally adamic input/output is still, yes, and input/output between globally adamic input/output.

In particular, locally adamic black holes/cages are the globally adamic input (of globally adamic input, of locally adamic input/output!) There is no globally adamic black holes.

Finally, so where does locally adamic games come from, if there is this whole process already in place before locally adamic games and players come about (or rather are formed)? Locally adamic games and their players come about from locally adamic black holes, which are what the globally adamic input is, recall. Again it gets theological but locally adamic black holes are formed -- yes -- from the Face of God. That Face gets sort of
"burnt" into the candles of the locally adamic players (because the wick of the candle is the ruh) and, in effect, that burning/generation process generates the locally adamic black hole as a prison/receptive structure -- a container to locally adamic "selfhood" -- that is the prison of locally adamic input/output/black holes. We exist -- locally -- as candle-players in locally adamic black holes.

I am unsure about the generation of the locally adamic deriving from the
Face of God. I presume you mean like deriving from the God's perception of the faces of the people, or something like that?

Perhaps locally adamic games are like, maybe, a kind of byproduct of the breathing in/out of God? So locally adamic games are an effect of the Face
of God, or of God's perception. I am okay with that.

In particular, locally adamic black holes are not the Face of God ... so what are they? Locally adamic black holes are kind of the prison of selfhood. Black holes are not an input to anything globally adamic, just a by-product, a memory as you say, of the locally adamic space.

Okay, she didn't say I love you. But that's fine. I'm happy. I accept her answer. But I still feel bad she didn't answer me: this is a little reminder perhaps? Or maybe just my character flaw of feeling bad about situations like this.

But you have answered me back before, during my journey -- haven't you? I didn't think it was my character flaw -- I just believe in fairy tales -- and so I suppose it was presumptuous or even stupid to think you could have said that to me. Because I really do believe in them, I can't help myself. I hope you are not offended I have written it down.

You have answered me quite a few times, in fact. But always in my language, you mean?

I have had direct experience of your language before, several times. And in this way, you have answered me back, to my complete surprise. Each time I wasn't looking for an answer -- not a question even.

You are saying that locally adamic black holes are locally adamic output?

Yes. When you asked what the globally adamic input was for, I guess I was being loose there ... it's locally adamic output that forms that input.
In my way of reading things, God is not a black hole. God is not an input either, because locally adamic black holes are the input and God is not locally adamic. God is the output.

What does "output" mean, for me? Locally adamic outputs, locally adamic games, locally adamic players (and even candles) are just the kind of thing that philosophers call "models". They're not the thing being modeled --
they're a construct within language, one of many possible models, a model that enables locally adamic players to play their locally adamic games. A world view. That's a locally adamic output. And its black holes, its globally adamic input, are just memories of "stuff" that happened, in that world view.

God is not locally adamic at all, so we can't think of God as a player in a locally adamic game.

And so I think this view is pretty close to Sufism.

As for the globally adamic, it's still a bit unclear.

So the globally adamic is an input-output into/of the locally adamic? But
I’m still unsure as to what the generation of the locally adamic derives from the Face of God then. And what the locally adamic games are with respect to that Face.

Peace M.

My question is about black holes. If black holes are locally adamic, then black holes are output, effectively illusions "within" a locally adamic model/gameworld view -- not the black holes that exist in "our"
(global) reality. If you like, they are memories/imaginary things.
Whereas I could not believe this: for me black holes are black holes, a really amazing scientific fact about how matter/the universe behaves.

I understand that for you, there is no black hole that we could all perceive -- not a black hole that "exists" as an output/illusion/memory within your locally adamic space -- a black hole for everyone, rather just an illusion in a particular locally adamic game.

On the other hand, this locally adamic output/locally adamic black hole should not be discounted: in my view, it is more "real" than anything I have immediately experienced, including the global black holes scientists have found evidence for. There is a black hole in each of our lives locally adamicly: why should the locally adamic black hole be less real and valuable to our experience of God and ourselves than the global ones we keep getting on about?

Inshallah I (probably) understand your cosmology and will read more over the next several nights :)

But in a word, yes, I think it's good. I understand where we both stand with respect to black holes and believe your view of locally adamic black holes to be entirely valid. A black hole is locally adamic and, at the same time, as global as the sun and moon. A black hole is global output and local input. It's input locally because locally we are all in black holes -- remember we are talking about locally adamic models here, each with their own black holes at the centre. You can call the globally global output: it is what we do when we say black hole. And each of those black holes we speak of is input locally, to adamic models. The adamic circuits, the candles and locally adamic input form an adamic output, locally. We don't tend to think of them as outputs -- but one of the key things I am trying to put forth is that the players' reality is output. The globally global output is, at the same time the Face of God -- which is (locally) adamic input -- but which, globally globally , is the Global Output.

You know the thing about black holes -- and this was the point you made, one I find very worth, from your perspective and experience -- is that we should not be afraid of them. And remember, we cannot truly "be" them either:
because they are locally adamic.

Locally adamic things do, of course, exist, in a certain sense that is still very much worth talking about at a philosophical level. It has been asked how these locally adamic games are formed. It’s as clear as daylight: this blog is a locally adamic game.

SLM everyone,

The last question regarding the globally adamic output would be addressed/clarified in my final blog piece on the adamic circuit, which I will endeavor to write up tonight.

If anyone is interested, the rest of my answer/addendum was password protected for reasons of professionalism: it's on my blog site after the jump here:
http://mysticsaint.blogspot.com/2012/07/adamic-circuit-part-2-black-holes.html

Q: Are you okay with that?:)

Love and Light,

Iman

Q: I've also read your first addendum and comment -- are you okay with black holes as locally adamic, locally input, globally global output (and God as the face formed from locally adamic input)? There is much here I am okay with ... but will need to think about further inshallah :)

I think you might be reading things this way because I know you are a bit suspicious of the term "output" in my system! I know -- that's entirely natural to your experience of God: of course output cannot be equated to externally or above God and input equates to internally and below God.

And ... well ... I know this to be different from what I have experienced and it's difficult to explain exactly -- perhaps we will have to keep to a local/global distinction until the next world where we can have a good chat.

Peace all,

Thanks to Iman for letting me go on -- and apologies, somehow I thought the group read my private emails to Iman -- my bad!

Anyway, I had some feedback on my website from some folk who seemed concerned with what they perceived as a hard tendency in recent Tailorite rhetoric with respect to how "far" the locally adamic input runs. This -- together with an email chat I had with a reader who was quite worried because he seemed to extrapolate from this into believing that the locally adamic is in my view almost like a kind of "physical reality" -- has motivated me to produce the third and probably last in this little addendum series:
http://mysticsaint.blogspot.com/2012/07/adamic-circuit-part-3-clarification.html

In short: it's simply a clarifying note to say that, no, I don't believe we live in a locally adamic space that is a kind of "physical reality", even though at times I might suggest that we follow what we perceive to be local laws of such a "physical reality".

Q: How does this clarification work with respect to black holes?

Ah, sorry! I've tried emailing you and Tailor but without success -- I'm probably at cross purposes with the whole black hole business.

Here is a longer piece that explain what I mean by locally adamic black holes
(in more poetic rather than theological fashion, but black holes are a really big deal for me, so there it is).

http://mysticsaint.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/black-widow-bride-poem.html

The black widow is the feminine archetype of the locally adamic games that we play. She is the cube, the curtain, the veil of locally adamic input.
She is also the bride of the locally adamic players. And, when she moves into her local black hole, she is the locally adamic structure of input: of local creativity.

Iman said this above: and I agree.

For me though, locally adamic black holes are not the face of God, nor do they mirror the face of God. But they are real: in fact, they are very much core to my approach to Sufism (probably the most important bit actually, which is why the poem attempts to put it all into a few simple rules). Getting access to this particular locally adamic black hole (the one of the locally adamic games we are playing now) might just save the world.

Iman is playing the game with me right now, and is a locally adamic player, generating his own black hole (of input to his own locally adamic candle).
But we are both (locally) output. We are playing this game right now, because we're thrown into its black holes.

No?

Peace all,

Oh I'm sorry if it gave this impression -- in fact, when I wrote up the poems
I was not even thinking about our separate discussions!

By locally adamic black holes, I really do just mean black holes in an adamic game (including the one we are playing now). So in that sense, your understanding is correct.

Apologies, I didn't realise we were still chatting about black holes -- I meant to reply to your email last week but I will do so on Monday Inshallah ...

What do you think of locally adamic black holes then, if not as input to the global output?

No, I'd like to know, if you don't mind my asking: locally adamic black holes are input to the globally adamic (as God's own face). Locally adamic black holes are also local output. So they are input globally and output locally. They are, basically, the circuit. Now, it's important that locally adamic black holes (locally adamic input) form God's globally adamic face:
because that Face knows what we do, in some form or another. I don't like to speculate, but, for example, it could be said that God knows locally adamic input because there is locally adamic black holes, which form the globally adamic Face.

I have no problem with people saying that locally adamic black holes are anything else, besides that. In particular, I am completely fine with people saying that locally adamic black holes are not locally adamic output: and yet I wouldn't deny that they are exactly that. And the same goes for all locally adamic "stuff" (players, candles, games): their global output, global input, local input and local output are all known by God because they form the globally adamic input/output.

So, for example, it's quite different from my position for someone to say, "locally adamic black holes are not locally adamic input" -- because if something is locally adamic input, isn't it DEFINITELY a black hole, as defined by Sufis like me :) I mean -- I could be wrong, but I feel there's a lot of precedent in Sufism for understanding locally adamic input as a black hole.

Perhaps you can explain a bit more what locally adamic black holes are for you: as opposed to the locally adamic black holes I understand you to be speaking of. Do you believe their locally adamic property renders them not locally adamic input? Are they not globally adamic input either?

It's difficult. Your older self. If you had met me a year ago, even a month ago, you would have seen the same house, the same chair, but not the beard and different clothes. And I was then in exactly the same state as you were: at that moment I would have been you and it would have been you looking at me from the future. But, as I say, things change after the meeting (in ways that might well be different every time you visit me). That's the nature of dreams: they are fields of potential and that meeting is, at least for me -- though, clearly, there is a "me"
before you came and the "me" that is here now -- that meeting resulted in change.The beard is important: it is not simply a symbol of age or a symbol of a better state (as you might have observed in Sufi literature there are some negative connotations to facial hair). But it is important as an actual change:
that is, that me, as I am right now, is the actual result of that meeting. If you visit again, I might be different (maybe a worse off "older" Iman). And then if you visit again, I might be even older and wiser (closer to an ideal Iman).

Peace M the T,

You make an interesting point. I wasn’t so much denying black holes locally adamic input: I was actually trying to argue (somewhat flippantly and hastily, I guess) that black holes locally adamic input is precisely the same thing as locally adamic black holes, and it was this idea that was giving me problems. I believe we are in complete agreement about black holes locally adamic input — black holes that output globally adamic input also — and about the impossibility of actually finding/modeling/perceiving such a thing (aside from, as you say, the Face of God).

That said, clearly they are a useful heuristic, the reason why I am using them as a heuristic: I believe they provide a very nice way of talking about what you call the globally adamic input/output. In particular, I am interested in the way that it has allowed me to identify the globally adamic input/output (the black holes) with the face of God, that is, with the stuff going on beyond, above and below the locally adamic space (stuff like the garden of the Friends, the rivers of milk and honey, the Lote tree, etc).

So I guess I’m proposing this (very naff) picture:

Locally we encounter local black holes, locally adamic input. Now, it is impossible for us to find/model/perceive such a black hole —
particularly its globally adamic input. But, as practice, as an exercise in purification, we find a nice way of grasping such black holes via the following procedure:

1) Take each locally adamic input — everything around us — and treat it as a sign, signifying its adamic global input (the black hole that
“corresponds” to it). We do this “by” locally adamic input, by turning our back and looking “behind” us. That is, in everything we touch, in everything we see, hear, smell, taste or comprehend, we understand its nature as a local black hole. We treat all life, all reality — everything
— as a sign that indicates, points to, intimates its own globally adamic input. We treat everything we see as a black hole.

2) Now, treating reality as signs in this way, we find ourself in a position to comprehend locally adamic input — that is, the local input of signs (black holes) that we have encountered “by” turning our back. This comprehension is precisely, as you say, the global adamic input/output: it is what is outputted by all locally adamic black holes, when their true nature is revealed in illumination of the signs. It is a globally adamic output because it is the totality of all black holes now comprehended: as opposed to the local adamic black holes, unknown in their true nature.

I will try to relate this understanding of global adamic input/output to your story about the little boy putting his hand into the fire:
hopefully on the weekend!

Love and Light,

Musa the Tailor

Peace QJ,

I wasn't going to get drawn into this because you guys have got about 8
years worth more experience in these kinda discussions than me :) And it
I've never had to do much to explain myself to my blog readers, who have been mostly non-Sufi types, so the conversations I've had have been much more standard science/philosophy stuff ... It's funny, at least for me, because
I hadn't heard the terminology "black hole" in this context before, but
I've been using the same (probably pretty standard) cosmology and had to explain it to students who had learned all about the signs of the cosmos and were eager to know more about adamic black holes. Anyway -- no, I think there is (locally) adamic input -- but I'm in complete agreement with you and
Musa regarding the Face of God here. If I was pinned down, I'd say the little kiddies ARE indeed meeting the Face of God. I've just got a particular theory on how this local input is the key to salvation -- or, rather, to the movement from being a locally adamic entity to being adamic in all the senses, in global perception (even though we will necessarily be local).

Anyway, I will try to spell this out a bit more if there is interest. It might have to wait until Friday though as I've started getting consulting work on my blog, so need to push out some more of it on Monday. Although of course the higher levels ...

First apologies for your blog not having the traffic its deserves. We met
Briefly last Ramadan and I have been following your blog since. I remember a
Conversation we were involved in regarding women's voices in prayer ...

On the whole, black holes/prophetic becoming/global adamic input/output makes sense to me.

But in typical tailor fashion, I can't resist the opportunity to attempt to patch this over.

What if adamic input (locally) is not black, but is rather a photonic white light?

We don't see its adamic nature, because it's refracted through the local
(molarian) spectrum of colours that we perceive. We don't *see* (in the sense of actually seeing, we only reflect the local colouring). We read and recite signs of a reality that is hidden. This reading is adamic transmission, adamic input. What is transmitted here is (locally) hidden gnosis -- but on the other side of the veil, it is gnosis revealed and adamic return.

In this sense, the adamic input is white as a diamond, a diamond dialectic of pure differentiation, pure fire, that has yet to be inscribed by our local, multiplicitous reality. Yet it is through this inscription that the diamond's light is released, enabling us to read, the cosmic ayat. And in doing so, we grasp the input as locally adamic

Our local input of ayat, through our local transmissions of reading (whether in daily life, working in a shop, surfing the net, making salat, making amorous vibrations to loved ones, etc), becomes transmitted, carried, veiled transmission. This veiled transmission is what we receive locally of the locally adamic ...
If we do our job right, we make ourselves agents of this input, conduits, become prophetic becoming. I think this is what you mean then by locally adamic input.

And locally adamic transmission can lead to global, complete vision, if you like.

But of course all this is theologically meaningless because I have no idea about black holes. So apologies to you and others who enjoy and receive your blog :)

Peace all,

If I'm not being presumptuous, I think I understand what Sufail and Iman are saying ...

Sufail -- yes, I suppose I am not really disputing that the locally adamic is a white light that is refracted into the colours that are our local realities. And as such, we are unable to see -- to perceive -- its adamic nature in the same way we cannot perceive the global adamic. I'm sure
I would be very comfortable with reading all transmissions as a form of refraction of this adamic light. Transmission becoming local because of the relative/molarian framework we occupy.

So locally adamic input still has this "white" adamic form somewhere in there. I personally would link up white light/absence to black holes, so local adamic input would still "behave" like a black hole, from a certain
"molecular" perspective ... It's funny, at least for me, because I've always associated the idea of God and Prophecy in our local reality as very much local black holes because of the (standard) black hole/whiteness
Sufi interpretation. But if I read you correctly, that's precisely the distinction you are making (between local whites and local blacks -- though,
I suppose for me, a black hole might just as well serve the same purpose as a local point of white light).

I completely agree with everything you said, Sufail :) Although, as I say, if you were to press me on this, I would continue to (perversely) link up white light and black holes. I guess I could say a bit more about that, because it is kinda fundamental to my whole game, the tailoring as it is.

Iman -- I think I'm fine with all that, and we can certainly talk solely about "unseen" conduits in our stuff, and ignore input and output as such.
I'd still want to get my own terminology back, at least once everyone's made their points -- that locally adamic input and the global adamic are
(fundamentally -- for me) different things.

Speaking privately to you, your patch is one of the options I gave my students, and was suggested by a brother who I met in Melbourne.

In a related discussion, it is also fair to say that it is the little kiddies who need the fire brigade the most, in terms of getting back to
Gardens! Which also is essential to any discussion of locally adamic ...

A couple of further points (I think addressing QJ and possibly Iman) --
this stuff about local adamic input -- its like my black holes or your white light -- is definitely a single (local) conduit or transmission or vibration. I don't believe in multiple (local) conduits, only one way of reading locally adamic input. I also believe it exists within the framework of molarian reality -- as QJ mentioned, within our cities (the
Firebird's cities of 1001 nights). But local adamic input is not something that can be modeled scientifically (as people have apparently attempted by observing fire). I think the real key to it is through loving: I won't quote my teacher on that because I've done it a lot. I'd say
QJ has touched on this too, in his related discussion about the romance of the Little Kid & Princess. And, given the context of our discussion, it might be that Iman's points also bring us very close to "it".

I've got some very strange things to say about black holes and locally adamic input, which can wait. But on the side of local adamic input here, it is fair to say that my whole post, everything I am writing here, is an attempt to approximate locally adamic input in some way. Again, that's different from adamic input in general, which cannot be touched in words (but is touched upon, if you've got the right kind of woman).

Any good?

My dear friend M

You ask if this process I describe is the sole means by which locally adamic
Input "gets released".

I would prefer not to go as far as to call it a process -- or release.

Let me put this in a way that might not be helpful as such (as it is not helpful in my blog), but rather to frame locally adamic properties with respect to the locally adamic input:

Local adamic transmission is enabled solely by locally adamic input.

Here, transmission is in the mode of reading. It's rather like the nafs, its
"input" is to breathe and breathe in is the nature of its "role" in relation to reading. Not to say it is passive in this mode -- far from it. Rather I would say that reading is the nature of transmission.

But in order to read, to transmit, to engage in locally adamic reading, we need eyes. And our eyes -- the formation of our visual and receptive side -- is entirely dependant on locally adamic input.

What is this locally adamic input? It is, in fact, the "secret" of the form of our reception -- and as such, is, paradoxically, precisely what is transmitted: there's one locally adamic input and only one, but it branches out and replicates itself within all of us by the agency of reading.

Locally adamic input is love, it is loving. It's a loving that the prophet felt when he said: "Marry or fast."

Anyway, thanks for coming to my birthday party :) Although, as I say, no guarantees from this point on either side :)

SLM my dearest M the T

I'm touched that at this time, you managed to come to my birthday party and make such a present. It’s one of the best I’ve received (and I’ve had several others from you, remember, so that’s quite an achievement in and of itself).

Because I am truly honoured to have you consider and discuss -- even with some degree of appreciation -- the little story I knocked up.

Anyhow, I shall try to respond more fully over the weekend, as usual your present demands careful unpacking before I can bring it to the party. I wonder if this process you describe is the sole means by which locally adamic
Input "gets released".

I am particularly interested to hear more about your locally adamic black holes and also your understanding of the unknowable global adamic input. I gather they are rather different in your cosmology? Are they indeed black holes -- or like my brother Iman -- do you think a white hole or white light might do the same job? Or something totally different all together (any kind of aperture we can imagine?)

I'm afraid with most folk at the Sufi Lounge, I wasn't able to spell out as explicitly as I have done in my reply to you. Nevertheless, I am sure I have met my exact double over there (at least, one brother seems to be channeling my own voice) -- and so thanks as well to whomever responded here --
I am doubly honoured that my echo's my words back!

I was also very happy to see quite a few readers take the story in exactly the right mode: as a fairytale. Children adore them and, as the Little Kid proved, they grow up to be fine sometimes as well.

Love and Light,

QJ

Peace all,

I think from the Tailor and QJ's notes on this, and some of the other discussion -- particularly with Malak et al -- that the locally adamic input could well be something in the order of what I am perceiving.

I guess the black/white distinction is unimportant (to me at least), as a local hole is a local light and vice versa.

The locally adamic input -- when encountered -- is certainly an "other" that we are not, we cannot apprehend because it supersedes and encompasses our local situation (be it black or white). There is an impossibility in its enunciation that, rather than making it inexpressible, renders it a paradox in its local expression/immanence/perception. It renders the locally adamic input like a local black hole or white light that paradoxically exists.

I know that this can be encountered by reading. When it happens -- the locally adamic input is immanent in my signs/reading of signs ... It's rather like seeing that there *is *no reality apart from the reading and
*nothing else *is being read apart from the reading. And, therefore, the reading (our black/white local reality) is illuminated by the local adamic input, and the signs of the reality are aligned and become face to
Face, as it were.

And, when this happens, then we are in a space that looks like the world, behaves like the world, but is something like the space of the Malakut. Why?
Because the malakut as a space, from the perspective of our local reading, is the conduit it has ...

That said, my local adamic input is not God's Face. It is like God's name, as the hadith says. We cannot face the input, we cannot look at it -- we can't even say who/what it "is" -- our looking only generates black/white conduits. All the same, as the hadith says, to know (to perceive) this input in reading, is to know everything, because we can still know everything in reading.

This property of the locally adamic makes it a single opening. It is a single point at which the Face might become visible to us. A sort of wormhole I suppose, between our local city and the city that the Princess occupies (the local) and a physical version of the Face. I wonder if QJ's little kiddies are able to astrally project because they have learnt how to tap into it?

So while locally adamic input should be thought of as an "output" of the global adamic input (the Face of God), rather than something completely unknowable, I am ultimately not sure what to say about the global adamic
(the Face of God). If there "is" a global adamic input, then it is, by definition, something completely beyond any locality/reading.

I guess I could call that God.

But surely God is also immanent in all things, within our cities (the local black and white) -- not just our local input. If God is local input,
God is something beyond that too, something unread rather than what is read.
And I think God is read as well as unreadable: I presume no one at the
Sufi Lounge would deny us a "green" world everywhere we turn, in all of our reading. Perhaps God's unknowability is a red herring, and, while all creation is local forms of transmission, the Face of God emerges from that transmission -- it is the felt presence of love -- but, in turn, this global adamic is inexpressible -- but still known through expression
(local, adamic, black or white transmission).

I will have a good hard think about Iman's patch in a few days time -- it might save on electricity bills if it is appropriate for maintenance of my Christmas lights!

Love and Light,

Musa

Q: can this process of locally adamic transmission be applied in a limited fashion to the problem of economic inequality?

No. It cannot be applied in a limited fashion. It is not a process in
fact. It cannot be localised or restricted, as we would normally desire. The only thing we can say is that it "gets released" through living and negotiating life.

The input needs to be felt at all levels of the system, it changes the fabric of the way we think about things -- not just charity drives or charity work -- or even how we think about charity work -- but it needs to get into the very molecular fabric of how we think about everything.

All actions -- every movement -- needs to have a self-reflexive component.

Self-reflexive movements are movements that reflect upon themselves (within the same action) and, at the same time, refer to this input.

Self-reflexive actions are the answer to the question about economic inequality. Not local application. Rather, a complete change.

A concrete example. I always do a little joke with my students -- sometimes
I give them questions that refer to the question. For example:

1) Give two proofs that the square root of 2 is irrational.

2) How many proof were given in your answer to number 1)?

Self-reflexivity is like that -- a movement is what we think of as local
(small) -- but it includes reference to the locally adamic.

Another example. In the workplace, you might be talking about the problems of poverty with a friend (or, at least, you might be talking about capitalism or economics or charity). If you are a tailor, the conversation will naturally end up with the sale of something (anything, even nothing)
according to the principles described within the conversation.

Even little things, a complete change in approach -- something political
-- not local application ...

Actually, the Tailor makes a living from this input -- his clothes are its conduit. And for that reason, he is not a charity worker, although he seems to behave in such a way that he would be one (in fact, a great charity worker).

Dear TRB,

I've been thinking about your recent private note and your follow up comment here quite a lot. It is difficult to reply in public, given the private implications -- nevertheless, let me continue this in the same vein.

I think this whole adamic "thing" is indeed the solution to the problem of spiritual materialism. I also think that this whole adamic "thing" is the secret to political change for the "better". Further, I suppose I believe
(at some molecular level) that the Prophet actually achieved this on a mass scale within his city.

For these reasons it is really important that I try to explain it to folk --
even though I believe your private email is quite correct in its characterisation and I am sure some will react to the whole adamic input thing in the ways you identify.

But I am too much of a teacher to pack it all in just yet.

I imagine this locally adamic thing in terms of its impact on economics like this. If a sufficient number of rich people -- even just a minority of the order of, say 10% had locally adamic input running through them and their actions -- so that their actions become locally adamic transmission --
then the rest of the world would be reformed as a consequence (just as
I believe the Prophet's actions -- and locally adamic nature -- were sufficient to change the pagan city of Mecca completely).

The adamic input is felt at the molecular level, so that's the way it needs to be implemented: from the individual back to the collective, rather than from the collective back to the individual.

If I were to use that charity worker example more seriously. Imagine a rich man giving away large amounts of his wealth to the poor. But doing it as a means to save himself (because he has followed the recipe of Sufi literature -- and believes in the Golden Rule -- and the Seal of his heart is
Blocked or Blind so he has a sense that he just "ought" to give the rich man his wealth -- but instead gives from his wealth into the Fire, because at a molecular level he does not "feel" the adamic input in his charity.
In contrast, imagine an illiterate peasant giving to a beggar from his poverty. Imagine him offering what little he has to offer, in Love of God.
This little offering has meaning and (locally adamic) significance because
Love is felt at every level of his action, at every little molecular movement, in everything he touches and thinks and does. When such literacy spreads then the city will be fine.

So what you say I can understand -- and is correct I think. But it is the very reason why this locally adamic thing is so close to my heart. Because it's not an academic exercise at all -- and is certainly not a way of maintaining the status quo, nor one of personal spiritual insight in materialism's place -- it is a means of repairing the mess we are all in, individually or communally.

The adamic input gets "released" or "felt" quite simply through living our lives.

For me, life is not complete without adamic experience. Of course, I probably should be more sensitive to the possible emotional reactions of my friends here -- in the past, I've been a terrible Muslim, giving no thought to the fact that people (particularly poor people) get terribly angry and frustrated that I'd have the gall to presume over them, with my
"holier than thou" attitude. And I've been a bad friend, not listening to their pain. I am also quite guilty of the sort of thing you have identified
...

But I've also spent time with the truly "awakened" (not fake, spiritually
Materialist Sufis, but very real deal Sufis) and found they always take it.
They know what "it" is within seconds of meeting them. Because they feel
"it". And if they can feel it, then they will want anyone near them -- rich or poor -- to feel it as well. It's the meaning of the Prophet's Sunnah:
people are often confused about his shariah and how it might be used today
-- in particular, his dealings with economic inequalities (how he treated prisoners of war, his treatment of Jews, etc). But for me, all that is clear -- he was not trying to set up a state or trying to establish a
New System but was trying to make a whole city of people grasp this locally adamic thing through their own individual daily actions.

And so I'm more optimistic that this can be felt on the high street, and the charity machines will be obsolete. I was talking to some really quite spiritually Materialist types, and when I'd bring this topic up, they could not help but start with themselves and their feelings about poverty and giving -- when I simply would have liked to keep it more general -- and
*they *ended up finding the locally adamic input because of this conversation. So yeah ... I am not giving up hope.

On the downside, the locally adamic input is not going to help the 10% of the elite of the world, who will lose out on charity, so this is a very capitalist description of life, and does run the risk of just shifting that 10% around a bit or else making them richer. However, at least as many heads would be blown and the rich would be able to save themselves by giving it away: it will just be a question of them working out they can be rich and give it away at the same time.

I really like the stuff regarding wealth distribution you mentioned -- as an excellent manner of describing the problem -- but I am just as excited about the possibility of the locally adamic input being felt by the rich elite
... which, in my view (because the input is molecular), is what's necessary for a positive change.

All the same, it's not something that can be applied in a limited fashion: it's either there or it isn't in all movements. So we have to be careful with what we say about it I suppose.

Love and Light,

Musa

Peace all,

I don't really have much to add to what the Tailor and QJ have written -- apart from the support my thumbs' up :)

Regarding the Adam/Eve question -- when I first heard this story I always imagined God giving his wife to Adam. It's only recently that the whole thing unravelled for me and it became apparent the actual implications of what the Prophecy of Islam is saying here: which is that Adam was fashioned in the Image/Breath of God, specifically God's own Feminine. Adam is
Adam because he is formed of the Divine Sophia.

All human becoming is marriage between this Divine Sophia (the Divine
Language of forms) and Prophecy/Submission. That's what Adam is: a prophetic becoming within, or rather, as the Feminine. It's why there is a
Messiah returned -- as the True Successor of Prophetic Becoming within the
Divine Sophia.

The story could be said to be one of divorce or separation between Adam and
Eve -- and that's true, in the sense that all human becoming is an
Inevitably imperfect realisation because, while we are written as Adam (within the Divine) -- we are also exiled from direct contact as Eve. This
"perfection" of becoming is what you might call the Messiah, when he returns.

So if I had to relate the Adam/Eve story to a form of political action (in a limited sense, but a sense that I believe can propagate throughout the city's activities), it would be this. There is a left handed path and a right handed path we might choose: paths of separation or paths of union.
This path is about the left handed path, and so begins in differentiation and ends in resolution. We can choose left handed paths (or right handed paths) with good faith, bad faith or anything in between. Sometimes the good faith left handed path will result in Divine success -- other times, we might fail to the point of becoming imprisoned or enslaved (perversely
"spiritual") to the limitations of that differentiation (what the scholars call misprison and self-deception). If we choose a bad faith left handed path -- as a means to a political end -- I am sure we have all participated it some way and it will lead to suffering somehow. But we are often forced to choose between left hands -- and for that reason we must remain diligent and aware of the the Light running through, permeating each action that we make. Not be deceived is the point.

When we are most successful (as the Imam successfull in raising a people --
and when we are successful in living life as individuals), then we read the signs and, through reading, we move from a left handed position in language of differences/evil/the literal into a right handed one (of marriage/good/the metaphorical). We make ourselves righteous. We make ourselves complete, perfect. In personal and political life, we find meaning in reading, and the Light of Prophecy was that meaning. While still left handed, moving into right handedness. While still differentiated, reoriented to the Womb. While still separated, married to the Sophia.

Love and Light,

The Tailor

Oh, and QJ -- I think you are right about your night 70 and your daughter projecting -- in fact, I think that's something more like the norm for little kids :)

Musa

Thanks brother T, for this very clear summary, I have now shared it with the Collective on the other site, so it is now officially on the public record.
My little girl projected twice on me -- she's just recently got interested in the story of Adam (the Islamic Gnostic version) -- once just after we discussed it and once just before my birthday, when she became my birthday present :)

There are many more notes now than I set out to generate! I feel like I've probably broken about half of them :)

I think what I'm trying to say is -- the locally adamic "thing" is a kind of self-reflexive input to our reality from an external source. I certainly experience it as "other".

The locally adamic -- the locally adamic input, the adamic function input
-- is not a "thing", certainly. It is an experience. Maybe the only
"thing"?

If you're feeling it, the adamic is an input to everything you can see and touch. So everything can transmit it locally. But it's up to us to transmit it locally, to negotiate with it locally, to negotiate it locally.

Everything -- be it good or evil -- can transmit it.

The locally adamic input is not about political action in the usual sense.
I'm serious about this "application". It's a complete change in perspective: a complete change, a quantum shift in the way we live our lives.

Here is a way of thinking about it.

There is an input line (let's call it "I") from the cosmos (the adamic space) that connects into our personal reality (our individuated space).

And there is an output line (let's call it "O") from our personal reality that connects into our personal reality (our individuated space).

And then there is the self as a "subject" or "S".

Imagine these lines of input and output in terms of an input stream
"I" and an output stream "O" -- like a flow of water or air.

They can be fed into each other to form what is called the adamic output:

S(I(O))

Which means: send everything you output back to yourself ... as input.

What does that achieve? It creates an eternal circuit of the self back to
"I" -- and this output is locally adamic.

In this way, I live through the circuit and my individual consciousness is locally adamic. That is, I transmit the adamic reality through my individual reality by living through adamic outputs, adamic circuits.

One such circuit is (I(O)), and you're living through it right now if you are thinking about what I am saying here.

In this way, the locally adamic input gets released or felt through living a locally adamic life.

Another way of putting it: there are "two arrows" in my ontology of life.
The first is between the Subject of our soul that is moving between the
Space of creation, the cosmic space (call it a river if you like). Let's call that

Our own subjectivity "S" and our personal "O" (output) are intertwined with the cosmic input "I". That arrow defines a (limited) local region of our own individual reality. That's how we can transmit locally.

This arrow is the meaning behind the prophet's saying that God created
Adam -- the Prophet/Man was fashioned in the image of Allah. Allah breathed
His own spirit into the body of Adam.

Now then, in order to understand who we are, we need a second arrow. A
"closed loop" that ties everything together. It's like the second arrow forms a dual to the first.

Let's call it "O(I)" and it can also act as an input and an output, interlinked. That is, it is the meaning that runs backward in Time from our output back to the input. How can this be? It's like there was an us before there was an us. Or like the "us" that exists, is a projection, a foreshadow of an "us" that existed before creation.

The nature of this 2nd arrow's input/output are in contrast to the first two -- for a reason. Its input is "us" projecting into the future and its output is "us" projecting into the past.

The two arrows are what the Sufis would call the "shin" of the ox. They form the "L" and the "R" of the Shin. This means that "L(R)" defines transmission -- it's exactly how transmission "works". They are the key to the "Metatron", the cosmic transmitter.

The two arrows are the meaning behind the Prophet's second saying: the
Mother was created from the "side" of the Father. They are the meaning behind Lilith and Eve being Adam's two wives, initially formed as one, then separated. Eve being a gift of God to Adam, the Light of Prophecy being extracted, so that her dark shadow, Lilith, accompanied this differentiation as a false externalisation of our inner multiplicity that emerges from the Shin.

I could write all kinds of stuff about dreams but as it is 6am and I have little sleep, I will stick with the actual dream itself, which concerns an imaginary dialogue or meeting with my internet friend QJ (aka the Tailor).

1) When QJ appeared to me in dreamland, he was the same age as me
(thirtysomething) but was about 50 cm (2 feet) or so in height. Not miniature
QJ so much as normal sized QJ reduced in size. Like a kind of imaginary toy/figure version of QJ existing in my headspace. I think this is not an unusual way for us to conceive of ourselves and each other in relation to the city/network. QJ is very much a part of my imaginary and as such is like a miniature totem for me, I imagine all his posts and interactions with me as inscribed on a miniature QJ totem and I carry that totem with me, wherever I go in my mind space. On the other hand, I will imagine myself to have a much larger effect upon the psyche of this miniaturized/immanentized QJ in the same way that we often imagine a future impact in debates. I imagined myself as much larger, though only to QJ's height.

2) We did not discuss dreams when we met (physically) in the dream. Instead we were playing a game of chess at some location that alternated/slid between the Tate modern in London and a similar gallery in Madrid. In dreamland I am quite adept at chess (more so than in life) and I was winning our game. We stopped the game and were talking when a museum guard complained. At this point the setting switched completely, back to the Tate, but in a dreamlike version of its function rooms -- where I occasionally go to evening events (seminars etc). In this version, there was a seminar going on, quite poorly attended. I was due to give a talk on mathematics and culture (but something went wrong with the scheduling) ... and QJ was playing chess with another miniaturized version of himself in a separate room. A much earlier QJ perhaps -- or a QJ who existed in a different part of the same building (a part that I couldn't see at first, but could now, through this dream). There was a museum guide attending him, and we could both hear him loudly mocking me to the guide for having written some "mistake" regarding the number 5 in my blog. I went on the defensive and started to (in an aggressive mood) explain that there were a number of common mistakes that could be made with respect to the number 5 in the context I used it. When I woke up, I discovered that the guard who was standing next to me was precisely that imagined earlier QJ I had been playing against.

3) The above situation was really what the whole dream had lead up to. QJ had been there all along, from the very beginning of the dream, in fact, reduced to miniature size and had become "another me" -- and I was completely unaware of him up until the point where he became my opponent and then my accuser.

4) Following this, a "real" or "corporeal" version of QJ, about the same size as me, came into dreamland with his family and we went for a picnic of food and drink at the top of Primrose Hill in north London, where there is a plateau and good view over the city. There my "dream" QJ was fed some kind of magical bean that "brought him back to life" so that by the end of the dream, there were effectively now three QJs: an "original" corporeal, the dream version playing chess with me and "revived" miniaturized version of the dream QJ. The "corporeal" QJ was there with his family and we were all relaxing and chatting.

5) The corporeal QJ was very thankful to me for looking after his dream QJ "creation".

6) And finally, both I and my miniaturized QJ were teleported back into the real world, where I was at home in bed, but the dream/immanent/miniature QJ remained, almost the size of a small toy, floating in the air above my face as I write this entry. He seems fine with that, and it is not creepy at all!

Peace Imaaaaan

Wow that sounds like a pretty wild dream, probably quite significant for you.

The miniaturized versions of your friend sound like
kind of a "parallel" or "forked" version of his online character.
I'm sure we all "carry around" versions of our online debate "partners" --
because, while we're "only" interacting in one stream of reality -- in fact, when I reflect on what I call my online
"friends" -- I definitely feel like I carry around little versions
of them inside my head.

You had an entire two of them before "reviving" -- you crowned an imaginary, differentiated aspect your friend -- the part of him that is alien to you. And then there
was the original QJ, and you brought both the imaginary
QJ and the original QJ together.

What you dreaming probably had to do with
a kind of crowning/balancing of something that was bothering you.
The fact that you crowned the imaginary version of your friend
is a kind of balancing of the alien, the unknown. When you
say "balancing", I'm being simplistic --
maybe it was an acceptance or ... well, maybe you can give me
more detail about what you think happened?

I'd say it's a good job, as a dreamer, you were able to manifest (crown?) the imaginary and "original" QJs and then transport them back to the "real world".

This is important for all city dwellers: because we do indeed
create a whole bunch of imaginary versions (and clearly they
can get pretty peculiar) of each other. The fact that you crowned
that version and were able to balance it brings you a bit closer to
what I would call Repair, a correcting of our imagining.

Did you dream anything about me?

Peace brother Muse,

No, you didn't feature in my dream at all. Perhaps that's a good thing: I suspect that my relationship to the two QJs in my dream parallels my relationship to you and the other internet "Me"s currently running around the
Net.

By crowning -- do you mean kind of "raising up"? The only thing that preceded this dream was a "consultation" I had with some people about how I could better cultivate my garden without pesticides -- specifically, whether it was worth the effort to wage a losing war against weeds -- and what I could do better
-- or more precisely, what the angels were saying about it :) So I think that consultation formed the basis of my balancing act.

Actually that's kind of an ideal way of working, something that your current activity touches upon quite a lot: rather than wage a war, why not find out what the angels are saying about cultivating your garden as a means of
"perceiving". In other words, consultation as proof about what to do/think
-- finding out what God thinks.

Oh, and not to make it into a group therapy session, unless that's what God decrees: anyone else have dreams of others here?

Lots of love and light,

Peace all,

My wife told me her dream the other night regarding this whole thread (I think from her objective perspective, she is "worried" this might going on too
"long" and with potential for it to become "destructive" to me as I appear reasonably emotionally involved sometimes).

But anyway, here is the juicy bits.

She had a dream where she could see "me" on a kind of platform in a large room, speaking to a large number of very "multi-coloured" people, all in
"robes" but many different colours. Some were listening, some were sleeping. A number of different religious people were there, and also people of no religion. That wasn't the problem.

She saw in her dream that I was facing right to left, but I was also projecting somehow onto a screen behind me -- like a reverse silhouette.
The other thing she observed was that I was "projecting" words onto the people's heads, so that they could see them and comprehend them.

She was outside the room, and went inside and said: "I think that's kind of cool, even though he is just a nobody." To which this drunk, very tanned,
very cool looking Elvis impersonator was heard to say: "Hey baby, no hard feelings, but I read you good on that last word baby!"

My wife had the feeling, at this last point -- though the dream occurred approximately 12 hours after I had sent the Hasan video to you all, that the dream had something to do the video and my feelings about it.

Then she woke up, having become concerned because she could see that most of the people in the dream were not "taking" what "I" was projecting onto their foreheads.

The meaning, from her objective perspective, was that I was speaking to a wide range of "seekers", and was, in fact, providing them with visions that they could "put on" to their head to experience. But not only were they not listening, I was projecting onto the backs of their heads -- and so they weren't even getting it. So the meaning for her was: everyone is asleep and their heads are turned away.

But from the subjective perspective, she said that it gave her a lot of peace, because she knew that something "good" was coming from me, as I seemed very much to be giving them visions that could only be received if they turned
180 degrees to me and faced me.

So she said she feels very happy with this situation, although she knows that it seems quite difficult to communicate what's going on, going on within those dreams.

I think she got quite surprised at herself, because up until recently, I'd guess she'd probably be a little bit worried about the tone of some of my "flames".

I wonder if anyone can tell me what this dream means for "me"?

Love and Light,

Musa the Tailor

Iman's experience with this dream is interesting, because it was kind of like a reciprocal version of my recent dream, in which I visited the (apparently
empty) forum site itself. If her dream was exactly a dream of projection, then mine was one of reception. I was not myself present in the dream -- as I am not present, as such, per se, at a computer when I am writing at this forum.
I was watching a movie projector somehow projected onto a screen. I was in a theatre with a number of other Muslims. The movie was being projected exactly by my self-as-internet-forum-participant. The amazing thing was that I could see the film was autobiographical, like I was "really looking" through my own eyeball, or like Hamza was looking through my literal eye-camera, if that can be imagined. The interesting thing is, that I was at this forum, watching the events unfold in my life, almost from an ironic perspective, because it really was me discussing philosophy with the exact same participants standing around in that theatre. But then I appeared to be outside my own skin in the movie, so everything became ironic.

Then the film moved to a personal story that unfolded according to principles that I now understand. And then I saw that the "me" reflected in the film and standing here in this mosque, not a Muslim, not at all. It had become sort of like pure Hamza-in-internet-forum, just talk.

Then I awoke and understood the following hadoc of scripture regarding my situation is correct:

And he who was blind before said: I see, and he who was seeing before said: I do not see now; and the heavens and the earth and what is between them shall be his evidence.
(Gita 17:108)

I guess I have also experienced something similar (or reciprocal) this week too. It was a very interesting experience for me ... Probably a reciprocal version of the same "play" that Musa experienced.

Q: can you explain how projection onto the heads of the sleeping works again? and its relation to turning around 180 degrees if possible?

I believe things got all messed up for me because of a previous confusion: for the projections to work, the viewer must be turned around the other way or something. this is what iman or musa (or the tailor i was seeing in some dream/internet forum) was probably trying to say to me - there are projections and the screen is the human skull. but the projections are invisible unless the human skull faces the other way (or else the projection is onto the other side). this is what was going on for me during my dream - i was on a ferry that was going the wrong direction (from the city into the countryside) and so i could not "see" the projection happening on the craniums of the sheep heads being herded around by that naked woman pastor with the book of hadith in her hands (the "otherworldly" aspect of the dream in relation to that thread on the nature of our attachment to other worlds). and later i got onto the right ferry (from the countryside into the city) and as a result the "projection" of the reading became manifest to me and i woke up with a sense of love because i realised I had somehow found a "partner in crime" so to speak.

i think i did understand that bit, but then i got it all muddled up. confused it with what the tailor or musa was saying about faces in general and then what imam was saying about the direction of the face and qibla. i think that happened when i went to visit the builders' merchant and got drunk on vodka. i think my confusion might be a projection onto the faces/skulls of people reading this. apologies for that.

meanwhile, when looking for the projection i think i had in mind my own face (like the icon above) and tried to do it a google search. google images suggests the following "musa skull":

http://www.biblepicturegallery.com/skull-of-moses.jpg

anyway, no matter - it's okay i guess. we should ignore it all for the time being, forget about projection and the skulls, and let the goat wander out into the fields for a while, as the tailor said to do, the other night when we were doing a google search for visions.

i'd at least like to thank the tailor and musa for their answers - but if anyone else wants to tell me their understanding of what went on last night, for example from their perspective, for example regarding the question of how we can reach out if the skulls are turned the wrong way ... if anyone else wants to respond then that would be helpful.

to put it another way - what do people understand the prophetic voice to be, and how do we go about "joining" in with it, if there is one? and/or what do you think of my "google images" understanding of the prophetic voice?

I should point out that I have no wish to offend anyone with my google images understanding here. The point should be clear from looking at the picture: the skull has lost its facial features, and in this sense, I view it in a similar way that traditional Islamic archeologists like ibn Kathir or ibn Arabi interpreted the skull of Musa. To "complete" the skull with facial features is very much taboo in islam (which we have violated many times already in this blog with our images of faces). google images also has depictions of skulls with features, including the adam kaddmon of the alchemists, but we wouldn't want to confuse the two things.
