“The Quran mentions the story of Moses and Khidr [a prophet mentioned in the Quran who guided Moses on a revelatory journey], a famous story, in which Moses represents sort of the external understanding of the religion and Khidr represents the inner spiritual understanding of the religion. Moses went on a journey with Khidr and Khidr said, "I will not accept you unless you stop questioning things," which from an external point of view seems strange, but inwardly is very meaningful. This is exactly the question of spiritual guidance.” SaidStoriesSeemsSpiritualUnderstandingViewsAcceptingJourneyStrangePoint Of ViewMeaningfulGuidanceProphetQuestioningMosesQuranVery MeanSpiritual GuidanceVery Meaningful Author:Seyyed Hossein Nasr
“Could we take anxiety to be something that may be of importance, may even be meaningful? And it says something about your history, and could we learn to sort of hold it in a way that's more compassionate, to sort of bring the frightened part of you close and treat it with some dignity, and keep focused instead on what kind of life you want to live connected to what kind of meaning and purpose. That's going to be a quicker, more self-compassionate and more certain journey forward inside things like panic disorder.” KindPurposeJourneyAnxietyDignityImportanceFocusedMeaningfulCompassionate Author:Steven C.
