Only proper ascetics like me can understand violence in all it's metaphysical and spiritual glory

I mean it's my good fortune, if I was raised as a non-muslim it's probable that I would have great difficulty (or find it impossible) to reach the same place
I was close to disbelief in my late teens
However the metaphysical cosmology of Islam is not grasped by most Muslims just like with Christianity.
And Judaism.
I wouldn't be too sure about that, your average pakistani muslim at least really does understand his religion more than your average christian
and not just in exoteric ways
maybe you are right, depends on what you meant
The average Muslim does not understand the platonic roots of Islam and Christianity and archetypical universalism.
Divine chains of beings.
"However the metaphysical cosmology of Islam is not grasped by most Muslims just like with Christianity."
the Metaphysical in these traditions is simply tradition itself
It's really not....
"Christian', "Muslim" and "Judaism' are nothing but colors
They have different Gods.
Traditional secret doctrines, in their inner significance cannot be comprehended by masses
It's not secret though
I said metaphysical and esoteric in them
you guys are talking about different things now
im not talking about these faiths as belief systems
Islam, Christianity and Judaism as faiths, anyway borrowed many many symbols and scriptures that even their authors probably did not properly understand at all
But still passed them
And of course, added numerous less relevant and more suspicious and deviant spiritual positions
Allah is the one who is light and eternal outside of time beyond the high heavens beyond the heavenly spheres and tracks the actions of souls. It just breaks down when you have a being/force/will outside of time dictating something that is eternal with him despite being human creation by not the most educated people.
Allah is not just that though
Jesus wills the world into being by creating the idea of the world.
but per the Quran closer to you than your jugular vein
so immanent as well
Which relates back to earlier European pagan traditions of willing the world into being like Odin and Uranus/Jupiter/Saturn
The problem is the meaning of the "World" to you is limited to the Earth as a planet and it's immediate stellar surroundings
Rather than Semitic light/solar analogies.
and hence your possibility of comprehension is limited and superficial
No, Christ wills the universe into being.
"The World" itself is a metaphysical concept
By thinking of the idea of it.
Of which the solar system is but one manifestation, quite specific and formal
And Universe
nothing he said implied that @The Enlightened Shepherd
how did you get to that
