Was it in Your Name or by Your Light or upon Your Being-ness, that everything is
Wujud (Being) http://www.untiredwithloving.org/wujud.html In most Islamic, Sufi or Islamic philosophical texts you find 3 words: 1. Wujud or being 2. Nur or Light 3. Idrak or Prehension When such ancient texts are translated from either Farsi or Arabic, the Western reader misses the point of the arguments since the very essence of the above 3 terminologies is lost. Even the native readers of Farsi and Arabic today do not have a firm grasp of such terminologies. In this treatise attempt is made to give a language that can elucidate the terminologies of the word Wujud (Being). The language is that of a vector-form, as was rendered in the Alfred North Whitehead's "Process and Reality". Towards the bottom of the presentation you may see the Tafsir of Qurtubi and Ibn 'Ajiba dealing with the Qur'anic concept of Wajh (Face) of Allah. You will also read qoutes from Imam Al-Ghazali as well as Imam Al-Suyuti. INSHALLAH will add more on Nur and Idrak soon --DARA The Eyeless Lion ------------------------ Yahoo!
