  • when Rumi talks about the Friend who is he referring to - i am asking more than a definition of the friend in pharsi does he ever call Shams the Friend or other's like Attar Halaj Friend or is he referring to something ethereal and not physical when he says friend - would / could there ever be different english words for friend used when translating some of Rumi's work ?? - also if anyone has come across any written work about the friend please share with me thanks peace out

  • Murgha-e-Badaynuma nay hawa say kaha "tumhara hamesha aik hi tarha chaltay rehna thaka denay wala hay. kiya tum meray chahray say hut kar koi doosra rukh ikhtiyar nahi kar sakteen? kyoon kay tum meri khuda-dad istiqamat ko pareshan kiya dayti ho." lakin hawa nay koi jawab na diya. aur fiza main sirf aik qehqaha sunai diya.

 
  • Well first of all I would like to give myself a heart-warming welcome since this is my first contribution to this rockin journal :D second, I've been watching Family Guy for quite sometime now and I still can't make up my mind on whether Stewie's family and surroundings (except for Brian) can understand him at all. I mean the kid spews some serious foul stuff outta his mouth and the adults around him don't seem to care all that much... Someone care to break things down for me? Thanks

  • My grandmother, God bless her soul, used to say: "Politics is like a prostitute. She sleeps with you one day, and with your enemy the next day." I find it alarming: 1. to see the Kata2eb flags out and waving again on a "cruisaders" cross background. 2. the "autoproclaimed dr" Samir Jeajea liberated!!! the one responsible of multiple crimes against humanity such as the massacre of thousand of palestinians, and inocent civilians, and the treater by being ally with Israel during the 82 invasion...

  • A young christain american from a conservative background who against many odds married a moslem from the mediterranean region . He was regular with salat and other islamic practises but never imposed anything on her. But he was such an amazing person, a very dutiful husband and she loved him so dearly that she eventually wanted to learn why religion was so important in his life so she learned on her own and 5 years after marriage accepted Islam. The last I heard she was MashAllah running a school for moslem... Read More

  • The BIG annual conference for neurosciences is coming up this November. This year, in an initiative by the Society to promote interaction between neuroscientists and the public, the Dalai Lama will give a lecture on Neuroscience & Meditation. I'm pretty excited. Unfortunately, a small body of scientists have raised the concern that his topic is 'based on unsubstantiated scientific claims', and that 'It is worth noting that the Dalai Lama's legitimacy relies on reincarnation, a religious doctrine against th...
