Quote by Neil Douglas-Klotz

“Die klassische Sufi Tradition betont sehr stark die göttliche Einheit allen Lebens (tawhid genannt). In dieser Sichtweise, die von Rumi, Ibn Arabi und vielen anderen geteilt - und durch eine Interpretation des Korans selbst gerechtfertigt wird-, kam die ganze Schöpfung ins Sein, um die grenzenlosen, heiligen Eigenschaften durch alle Wesen zum Ausdruck zu bringen. Insbesondere erschuf Gott den Menschen als einen Spiegel, der die Gesamtheit des Göttlichen enthalten und spiegeln könne, einschließlich des ganzen Bewusstseins der Natur und des Universums. Das bedeutet nach Ansicht der Sufis, ein ganzer Mensch zu sein. (S. 20)”

“For Muslims, rejecting the view of absolute oneness and accepting something different, categorizes as unbelief. Likewise, Christians must accept Jesus as the Way, the Truth, and the Life and his concluding summary in how to come to God when he said, 'No man comes to the Father except through me' (John 14:6). In both viewpoints, the obvious exclusivity makes the blasphemy of one religion the foundation of another. These exclusive markers become the initial openings for both yet close the door for the other.”

“Space, in its essence, does not exist and, therefore, cannot be curved. What exists is only an emanation of the Supreme Being transformed into reality. We measure the expression of the Absolute and not the absolute itself. We already elaborated on the manifestation of the Absolute as we see it. Therefore, the curvature of space is a curvature of the convention, as presented to our senses, the curvature of the emanation and manifestation of the Absolute Mind in the World.”
