Translator's Preface
The Universal Mysteries is one of the most fascinating books you will ever read and in most ways it is a unique book in human history. It provides the answers to most of the great questions about the origin and the nature of universe as well as the purpose of human’s existence in a complete system for thinking minds that seek scientific basis of spirituality.
Though much can be said about this book, I will be brief by only reminding you some of the scientific findings and implying some of my points before you enter reading.
Over centuries, Sufism communicated that what we observe as the world-out-there is in fact a virtual image of Reality like an illusion observed in a mirror, and the ultimate reality is the Oneness of all that is. This Oneness is the essence of all things and if one lives a shift in one’s mind to recognize and know that Oneness as one’s real being and functions by thinking the same way as the One does by getting rid of human considerations, everything will then be known truly.
Today, Modern Science also reports in parallel that the universe is entirely a giant hologram, a splendid detailed illusion, which looks so concrete to us only because of our brains’ ability to convert a limitless ocean of waves of frequencies out-there into physical objects that make up our world.
We also know that we are in fact looking into that ocean of waves of frequencies of quantum reality at all times. However, it turns to our ordinary physical reality whenever we look at it, as all objects come into existence in the presence of an interacting observer, that is, when we are looking at and interpreting them as separate entities as a result of understanding interconnections between our experiments and measurements in our minds.
This simply means that our universe and everything dwelling in it has two very different aspects to its reality. When this ocean of waves and frequencies is filtered through the lenses of our brains it manifests a world of physical objects. But if we could get rid of our lenses before our sighting, we’d experience only frequencies of waves everywhere. One is our physical world; the other is a spiritual world, or the dimension of cosmic energy and consciousness! In the same way, we as human beings, too, have two different aspects of reality. We can observe ourselves as physical bodies moving through space within the limitations of the five senses. Or we can observe ourselves as some sort of clouds of frequencies enfolded through the cosmic hologram that possesses cosmic energy and consciousness. One aspect of us is a human being having a spiritual experience, the other is a spiritual being having a human experience, ¾perhaps just like Jamm and Elf respectively of the “Universal Mysteries”.
The realities of the quantum (or the spiritual) dimension are quite different if compared to our physical world of limitations though they are not separate. In the quantum world all things take on new meaning. If we can consciously take our minds beyond this physical life to which we have become accustomed, we will enter into a holographic universe; as deep within us is wholeness, a unified field of limitless possibilities in which every cell in our bodies has the entire knowledge and energy force of the whole universe: In the quantum world, content with the limitations of the five senses is of no question! There are no physical boundaries of any bodies any more! Death is no more a reality like that of the five sensory world! The entire universe is an intelligent system and considering yourself as independent and separate entity is of no question; therefore there is no need to tend to defend the needs of your ego against those of the others. Such kinds of recognitions may give you a scientific idea about the world of Elf in our book.
Knowing all those, we can choose to function at a lower level of awareness and simply exist with physical considerations caring for physical possessions, etc. Or we can soar to new and higher levels of awareness allowing ourselves to experience deeper dimensions of reality within ourselves. But what is the key to unlock our minds to experience that reality within? How are we going to understand the values of the spiritual dimension, the dimension of cosmic consciousness within our essence?
Let us look at Sufism and Science again.
Both Sufism and Science explain that despite the apparent separateness of things at our physical level, the basic reality is unseparated, undivided, unbroken wholeness beyond our five senses’ limitations, and in reality the behavior of all things is actually organized by that basic wholeness at all levels. This means, the fragmented and separate existence of things is an illusion, but the wholeness is the primary reality.
This is a new way of looking at reality that alters our conception of the universe and brings us to reconsider our overall worldview! Because, we were commonly taught and conditioned quite the contrary and our senses with their limited capability fool us into thinking that we are separate bodies and we live in a concrete world.
Many scientists are in search of a new way of looking reality, the possibility of a genuinely unique theory, or a unified theory that shows us the real way of conceiving the basic whole structure of the universe and that explains everything! Is there a theory to completely explain something that is infinite, whole and the source of all being? If yes, how are we to think coherently of a unified, single, unbroken, flowing actuality of existence as a whole, containing both consciousness and external reality as we experience it?
It may be astounding to read it here on these pages but Sufi thinkers have been referring to that unique theory as “Allah” for centuries! Yet, because of preconceived notion of “God” that occupies humans’ mind in general, the meaning denoted by the concept “ALLAH” cannot be appreciated truly. Author Ahmed Hulusi brings the reader to that ultimate search in the end of this book and gives a plain answer in his miraculous book “Mohammed’s Allah” which I think must be read subsequently. And yet, despite the recognition of “wholeness” and “oneness” as the ultimate origin of the universe, most people are so addicted to their beliefs in an outsider or an insider God that even though the meaning referred to as “Allah” is broadly and plainly explained as different from any concept of a god based on the Koran and Modern Sciences in the mentioned book, many people still can’t help themselves urge that there should be a god and they should believe so, and therefore they remain deprived of that learning and fail to come to realize the meaning denoted by the noun “Allah” and to recognize it as the unified theory that explains the truth of everything. Knowing Allah is a process to shift our attention from focusing on matter to entering into a holographic universe consciously that every human should live through to reach the purpose of life. It just requires learning with a mind free of religious, philosophical, cultural prejudices and the acceptance of a complete shift in our minds from unawareness to awareness.
I hope, this book may function as an invitation to such recognition and become a step toward reaching that learning.
