The Nominum Touch

1:1 

What is the mind, if not the ability to ask this very question

1:2

There is a need within what we are, which drives our ability to be all that which we are capable of being

1:3

But the nature of the need is not something which can be known. At least not within what it is to know itself

1:4

There is only every the expression of the need. Within our ability to enact the need, is a question of why such need would, or could exist

1:5

But never is it so hard for us to see the simple beauty of what the need is, as it is to be life in need, in order to exist

We are the question, seeking an answer. So how could we every possibly see ourselves as the answer, as need fulfilled

When all questions are answered, what is it to seek?

When all need is fulfilled, what is it to exist within such pursuits?

Do we simply live for tomorrow? When the question will be asked again? Or need will be renewed?

Or do we live for the nights, when comfort is within finding?

We mislead ourselves in the pursuit of mind, as if it were the knowing which defines what it is to think

Who are we? If not for the very question itself

What is, is not the same as what could be. But what could be, will never be the same as what is

Wherein the difference comes to be all that is, and all that could be, there is no difference in the definition, other than where one is pictured within the realms of physical confinement

So is it what is, which defines what could be?

There is no path to anything, which can also be a path to something other. Or indeed, something completely different and opposite

The choice is not what we become, is the expression of the need to become, in itself

We see mind as something held, but within the expression, we sit outside within the consideration of such things

So what is mind, within the consideration of itself?

Why would a question, ever question its ability to question?

If you look beyond the means of what can be know, or what can be defined, then all you will find within such pursuits, is confusion within the nature of the question itself

Like trying to define a static point in space, within the shifting of the oceans tides

You look upon, what it is to be looked upon

It is a simple loop to perceive. But an impossible one to understand

Other than to know, that it cannot be understood. At least not our bodies. And not within this world

This does not make the pursuit fruitless. Only as ever changing as the nature of any type of fluid reality within this world

But if the question itself, is the answer, then why ask?

It is no more than the experience itself

An experience which we negate, in seeking to understand why it it we consider an ask such things

We forget to live when we are busy longing for yesterday

And we lose sight of who we are, when we we consider where it is we are going. And why

Creation is not intended to be understood. Only ever experienced, appreciated and respected

We open ourselves to all consideration within such things. But it is only to know, as one who experiences

Never as one who defines the experience within its inception

We seek the source of creation, failing to understand that it lays within what it is to seek such things

We ask from creation, of creation, as that which has been created

The definition, of what it is to be, need and find fulfillment

We move, because we need seek

We need seek, because we move, within what it is to seek

There is no great mystery here to be unfolded, beyond why it is so hard for us to see that which we are, for what it is

We are the truth of creation

The only defining truth that can ever be known within creation

Everything else is the experience

Babylon - Evolution

Babylon - Evolution

Zephaniah (Meaning: Opinion)

Zephaniah 3:9

"It is best to not speak to someone at all if you have nothing nice to say,
Speak to them in the manner in which you would want to be spoken,
And treat them in the manner in which you would want to be treated"

Luke and John

Luke = Light. The emanate

John = Sound. The complexity

It means more than just sound though. It describes the space around light, within which frequency can exist

When it gets to talking about "John/Sound" in Revelation, it when it is very literally talking about music

Revelation 17:10, KJV: And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space

Translation: A true octave actually consists of seven notes, (because the 1st and 8th note are actually the same note) with five semi-tone notes in between. Which either come just before the note as a "flat" version of the note it precedes. Or a "sharp" version of the note which it comes after

For those who haven't studied music and do not understand, a representation of this can be found by looking at the sequence/pattern of keys on a piano

7 white notes, with 5 black notes in between

Before the musical scale starts again at the 8th note, or "octave", which is the same note, as the start of the next scale/octave

The Seven Seals talk about the Seven intervals in tonal musical frequency

The Seven intervals which make up all perceivable spectrum of frequency, not just music

When it talks about The two witnesses it is describing the principles of tonal Harmony

Like two people singing different parts, in perfect unison

The two witnesses killed and raised talks about the difference between Major and Minor Harmonies

Killed = Minor

Raised = Major

The beast out of the Earth talks about Timing and time signature

The mark of the beast talks about Key signature within tonal frequency

Example: The musical "A", which is 440hz (144,000)

Peters Keys - Caduceus/Sadducees

The keys don't represent Peter. This is a simple veil translation that doesn't explain anything about the meaning

The keys are a short-hand of the Caduceus, which is the very same as what is translated in the Bible as Sadducees

The correct modern translation of the words Caduceus/Sadducees is "Centrifugal"

The symbol is, essentially, the same thing as D.N.A. A spiraling vortex of centralised influence, which distributes at/from/to its centre, the same as that which influences, around it. And vice-versa

It is also the very same as stylised central symbols seen in Sumerian art

Pharisee and Sadducees, talks about proportioning of centrifugal force

That is why the mistranslated verses about “Peters” keys, talk about body and mind either repressing/binding the same things, or releasing them

They are talking about the cellular ability to store or release information and frequency

Within the ancient teachings, they personified the understanding through emotion, which is a relatable, direct correlation of the greater universal concept that everyone can understand

The name Hermes means Emotion

When we talk about the Caduceus/Sadducees of Hermes, we are talking about the centering of emotion

The Roman Catholic/Christian version of this is Jesus, which also means Emotion(al)

If you look at the Etymology of the word Jesus, you will see how the various proposed translations such as to deliver, to rescue, salvation, a cry to save, etc, all correlate to the correct meaning of emotion

If your were to consider Jesus to be a real person, then you must consider him to be the exact same person as Hermes. Both names are a word meaning the same thing, emotion

Interestingly, another variation of name meaning Emotion, which is found in the Old Testament is Samuel

Samuel very literally means Emotion

Root cognate of this can still found in modern languages. Sam in Russian means Myself

Sam = I am

Sam-u-el = To be within the likeness of, I am (of) the/thee, I am your, all correlate with the modern popularized meanings such as His name is God, Image of God, or In the likeness of God. They are all talking about the ability to recognise self, in reflection. Emotion

This means, that if you are to consider Jesus in the New Testament to be a real person, then you should also consider them to be one-in-the-same as not only Hermes, but also Samuel, in the Old Testament

When it comes to the crown on the Vatican flag, this represents Conscious. Which is the correct translation for the word Christ, as it is used by the Roman Catholics and Christians

Keys = Jesus

Crown = Christ

Jesus Christ = Emotional Conscious

These teachings are just extrapolations of the geometric equivalent teachings of existence within a torus, that are given within the first books of the Old Testament

Torah literally means Torus, and refers to the geometric sphere-type shape, within which a centre of influence "nucleus" is created through vector equilibrium

El'ohim literally means Equilibrium

These teachings themselves (when correctly translated) are just newer versions of older teachings given within things such as the Eleusinian mysteries, which I have personally undertaken

Kore (Core/Nucleus), born of Demeter (Diameter/Dimension) is taken by Hades (Radius). Then returned as Persephone (Perception)

It is the exact same story as the one of the Torah

Which is later reasoned into Persephone/Perception, within the New Testament stories of Christ/Conscious

If your wanted to look at the application of a direct correlation in algorithm between them, then a deeper and more correct translation of Christ preceding conscious, could be Circle/Cycle

Which extrapolates out into words like Christmas, to mean Circumference. Such as coming around full circle within the solar or “year” cycle

Speaking In Tongues - Acts 2 - Degrees Of Perspective

Tongues talks about the perspective of language and how it allows people to understand the possessive, and possessive tense

1And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. 2And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. 3And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. 4And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

1) It is important to understand personal perspective within how we view this world when interacting with one another. 2) There is perceiver. The perspective from which we view the world. 3) There is perception. The way and means by which we view the world around us. 4) And there everything in-between. The transit of the means, and all manner of fluid reality

5) Within perceiver, we communicate the world as it is seen from the eye of the beholder. 6) But when we externalise this, others need understand it from their own perspective. 7) So they can fully appreciate what is being expressed, as if were they, internalised. 8) And appreciate anothers perspective as if it were their own. 9) Personal, Median and Emanate

5And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven. 6Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language. 7And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans? 8And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born? 9Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia, 10Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes, 11Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God. 12And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this? 13Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine.

5) 

Peter Preaches to the Crowd

14But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words: 15For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day. 16But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;

17And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:

18And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:

19And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:

Pray/Prayer means Presume/Presumptuous

The Greek word used in the Bible said to mean "Pray/Prayer", actually means "Presume/Presumptuous"

Luke 7:50

There are established patterns that are able to be 

And without understanding what is seen, there is no way to compare how it is seen

Open measurements disrupt the patterns you are attempting to measure

Across this interference, it is impossible to commute an answer that could be deemed accurate

The best you can hope for, is to equate it to the relative patterns and diverge from this what can be known, as separate to what can't

PSALMS 1 UPDATED - PURPOSE

 

1:1
Find better within you, so you can be better. It isn't who you are as a person that is ever 'not good enough', only the parts of you which can be improved

 

1:2

When you think of the best way you could possibly be, what is the feeling that goes with it?

 

1:3

It's not a question of can you do it, but 'can you see it being done'?

 

1:4

It is unrealistic to believe if the belief brings you nothing, but it is not completely without merit

 

1:5

More self-confidence opens more opportunities and within this, belief is essential

 

1:6

When you think of the past do not think about how it has found you falling short

 

2:1

Look at it as the essential process towards becoming who you wish to be

 

2:2

There is a difference between having something better and having something extra

 

2:3

Seeking better seats discontent

 

2:4

Which plays to a deficit when you need move forward

 

2:5

Hold everything you have as precious

 

2:6

Because the better you seek could just as easily become worse

 

2:7

Nothing permits when nothing is asked

 

2:8

Giving is the same as receiving

 

2:9

As it goes further than the expectation of nothing gained

 

2:10

Something is better than nothing, and for every something over your purpose, there is someone with nothing in need

 

2:11

Do you seek better as one with something, to those with nothing?

 

2:12

It is not to say that because others have less you should feel content, only appreciate that you have more than they

 

3:1

You move forward from here grateful for every bit extra that you receive

 

3:2

The less you're concerned with having a better life

 

3:3

The more you enjoy the path to finding it

 

3:4

So many ask the question of what this world holds for them and the meaning of life, without asking why it is they think they ask the question

 

3:5

Is tomorrow going to be any different if the answer were to be given? And is the meaning of life to be found within the answer, if indeed it even could be given?

 

3:6

It is less about what the meaning of life is, and more about how we can bring meaning to life

 

3:7

The answer itself, lays within our ability to ask the question

 

3:8

The question, is the answer

 

4:1

We have belief, because we seek understanding in something greater than ourselves

 

4:2

But what could be greater than ourselves, as those capable of seeking such understanding?

 

4:3

Remember that you do not need to be right, in order to find peace within what you have learned about this world

 

4:4

And others need not be wrong, in order for you to appreciate their journey in all the beauty of its difference, when compared to your own

 

4:5

To believe, is not to see an end to the questions. Because without these questions, such belief would hold no meaning

 

4:6

If everything were to be answered, all at once, life would hold little meaning

 

4:7

Life is precious, because it can be held within contemplation of itself

 

4:8

This is what we are

 

5:1

We are neither the question posed, nor the answer in any culmination or definitive form. But the consideration of all which comes in between

 

5:2

The fluid nature of water, is exactly the same as that of thought

 

5:3

Though both can be held within you perfectly, it is much harder to hold them within your hands for offering

 

5:4

And we would drink of the waters from our own hands, before we would from the hands of another

 

5:5

This is the essence of experience. It is amazing. It is horrible. It is beautiful, and it is disgusting

 

5:6

But it is yours. And what more could you, as yourself, ever need?

 

5:7

And within the same likeness with water, belief represents our thirst. A taste in reflection to our own specific needs and wants

 

5:8

So where does purpose fit in to all these things?

 

5:9

Is their purpose within belief?

 

5:10

Do we drink just to sustain ourselves? Or does it form our part within processes far bigger than ourselves?

 

5:11

Why should we be here tomorrow to sate our thirst? Or maintain our beliefs?

 

5:12

When the sun sets tomorrow, what difference was made by us being here to eat, drink, breathe, believe, love and feel pain?

 

6:1

Is the world better off tomorrow, than it was today, because I was here to do all these things?

 

6:2

Did my understanding of this world help to lessen our collective pain in some way?

 

6:3

Do we know more? Do we love more? Do we pain less?

 

6:4

We can see that this world loves us. We can believe that we were created for something greater than ourselves

 

6:5

Yet we can still overlook the reason for why we are able to do such things. Which is purpose

 

6:6

The question itself is not the problem. Just as the answer is not the solution

 

6:7

The important part of looking for, finding, or understanding your purpose, is within the experience itself

 

6:8

Along our journey we can exist within a state of creation. Or we can exist within a state of decay

 

6:9

Which we represent, is ours to choose. Regardless of our differences, how we live, what we understand, or what we choose to believe

 

6:10

You need not know where you are going, to find your way

 

7:1

You need only take the next best step that you can possibly take

 

7:2

The best step that is available and open to you

 

7:3

It may not be much, but where it leads you, may be huge

 

7:4
When all is said and done, and your time in this world is done. It will be the things you did not do, that you will likely regret, more than the things you did

 

7:5

What is it that you will leave behind?

 

7:6

What part of you will live on, when you are gone?

 

7:7

This will be your life after death, on Earth

 

7:8

This is purpose

 

7:9

Your ability to look back at your life, at the end of your time here, and know you did well

 

7:10

You did good, and you left behind love and creation, rather than pain and decay

2 - Al-Baqarah - The Cow

2:0

Imagine if you will, that things are not what they seem

2:1

And that though you are yourself, you are everyone else as well. As they are you

2:2

That all our many differences are actually what make us all the same

2:3

You live within your own mind, but your mind is not as much yours as you would think

2:4

You are limited to who you are, by how you perceive who “you” are. If your named self is all that you know, then that is all you can be

2:5

“If it doesn’t become what it can be, then all it will be is what it is”

2:6

Memory is a pathway to past, present and future, though it’s binds itself to how we perceive time. Who we were in reflection, measures to who we can become

2:7

Hence you become nothing more than “your” possibilities. The named self is as much a limitation as it is a liberation, when it comes to knowing the limits and possibilities of self

2:8

“Tomorrow measured by yesterday becomes a loop destined to repeat itself”

2:9

All our hopes and dreams then carry with them a “burden of self”. We dream of a life – to escape the one we have. All of our hopes – are towards more than we have

2:10

We define what we can be, by what is not, and what we are not

2:11

We do not look to be more than ourselves, and so it never comes

2:12

You have to know more than yourself, in order to find yourself

2:13

Then, though you may end up endlessly chasing your tail, it is not just to be better than you are, but to find what you have lost

2:14

It’s application in empowering you to be more than you are doesn’t just open all the doors for you though. It is as much transcendental as it is ascendant

2:15

To go beyond yourself can also be to lose yourself

2:16

Like with most things in life, the total gain usually ends up being about sum of that which it cost

2:17

Which is why perspective is the most important part of understanding to-self. Not to make you better, but to find a better you

2:18

If nothing is risked, then even less is earned

2:19

But if you risk all, then you could gain everything. The difference between what you stand to gain and what you could lose, lies within why it is being sought

2:20

If you seek things for the right reasons, then you cannot lose, though you may end up left with nothing. “Too lose all for the right reasons, is to feed the soul what money cannot buy”

2:21

Nothing that could ever be known to us, means more to a sore heart, than knowing it gave all that it could

2:22

Even if it means nothing to anyone but yourself, knowing you gave all you could, for the right reasons, makes the “burden of self” become lighter than the shoulders which carry it

Samuel Gregory Korn 

22:11 - 02/10/2018

Darwin, Northern Territory, Australia

------------------------------------------------------------------------

2.0 - Imagine if you will, that things are not what they seem

[2.0] In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful - بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

2.1 - And that though you are yourself, you are everyone else as well. As they are you

[2.1] Alif Lam Mim - بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ الم

2.2 - That all our many differences are actually what make us all the same

[2.2] This Book, there is no doubt in it, is a guide to those who guard (against evil).  - ذَٰلِكَ الْكِتَابُ لَا رَيْبَ ۛ فِيهِ ۛ هُدًى لِّلْمُتَّقِينَ

2.3 - You live within your own mind, but your mind is not as much yours as you would think

[2.3] Those who believe in the unseen and keep up prayer and spend out of what We have given them - الَّذِينَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِالْغَيْبِ وَيُقِيمُونَ الصَّلَاةَ وَمِمَّا رَزَقْنَاهُمْ يُنفِقُونَ

2.4 - You are limited to who you are, by how you perceive who “you” are. If your named self is all that you know, then that is all you can be

[2.4] And who believe in that which has been revealed to you and that which was revealed before you and they are sure of the hereafter - وَالَّذِينَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِمَا أُنزِلَ إِلَيْكَ وَمَا أُنزِلَ مِن قَبْلِكَ وَبِالْآخِرَةِ هُمْ يُوقِنُونَ

2.5 - “If it doesn’t become what it can be, then all it will be is what it is”

[2.5] These are on a right course from their Lord and these it is that shall be successful -

أُولَٰئِكَ عَلَىٰ هُدًى مِّن رَّبِّهِمْ ۖ وَأُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْمُفْلِحُونَ

2.6 - Memory is a pathway to past, present and future, though it’s binds itself to how we perceive time. Who we were in reflection, measures to who we can become

[2.6] Surely those who disbelieve, it being alike to them whether you warn them, or do not warn them, will not believe - إِنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا سَوَاءٌ عَلَيْهِمْ أَأَنذَرْتَهُمْ أَمْ لَمْ تُنذِرْهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ

2.7 - Hence you become nothing more than “your” possibilities. The named self is as much a limitation as it is a liberation, when it comes to knowing the limits and possibilities of self

[2.7] Allah has set a seal upon their hearts and upon their hearing and there is a covering over their eyes, and there is a great punishment for them - خَتَمَ اللَّهُ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِمْ وَعَلَىٰ سَمْعِهِمْ ۖ وَعَلَىٰ أَبْصَارِهِمْ غِشَاوَةٌ ۖ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ عَظِيمٌ

2.8 - “Tomorrow measured by yesterday becomes a loop destined to repeat itself”

[2.8] And there are some people who say: We believe in Allah and the last day; and they are not at all believers - وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَن يَقُولُ آمَنَّا بِاللَّهِ وَبِالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ وَمَا هُم بِمُؤْمِنِينَ

2.9 - All our hopes and dreams then carry with them a “burden of self”. We dream of a life – to escape the one we have. All of our hopes – are towards more than we have

[2.9] They desire to deceive Allah and those who believe, and they deceive only themselves and they do not perceive - يُخَادِعُونَ اللَّهَ وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَمَا يَخْدَعُونَ إِلَّا أَنفُسَهُمْ وَمَا يَشْعُرُونَ

2.10 - We define what we can be, by what is not, and what we are not

[2.10] There is a disease in their hearts, so Allah added to their disease and they shall have a painful chastisement because they lied - فِي قُلُوبِهِم مَّرَضٌ فَزَادَهُمُ اللَّهُ مَرَضًا ۖ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ بِمَا كَانُوا يَكْذِبُونَ

2.11 - We do not look to be more than ourselves, and so it never comes

[2.11] And when it is said to them, Do not make mischief in the land, they say: We are but peace-makers - وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمْ لَا تُفْسِدُوا فِي الْأَرْضِ قَالُوا إِنَّمَا نَحْنُ مُصْلِحُونَ

2.12 - You have to know more than yourself, in order to find yourself

[2.12] Now surely they themselves are the mischief makers, but they do not perceive - أَلَا إِنَّهُمْ هُمُ الْمُفْسِدُونَ وَلَٰكِن لَّا يَشْعُرُونَ

2.13 - Then, though you may end up endlessly chasing your tail, it is not just to be better than you are, but to find what you have lost

[2.13] And when it is said to them: Believe as the people believe they say: Shall we believe as the fools believe? Now surely they themselves are the fools, but they do not know - وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمْ آمِنُوا كَمَا آمَنَ النَّاسُ قَالُوا أَنُؤْمِنُ كَمَا آمَنَ السُّفَهَاءُ ۗ أَلَا إِنَّهُمْ هُمُ السُّفَهَاءُ وَلَٰكِن لَّا يَعْلَمُونَ

2.14 - It’s application in empowering you to be more than you are doesn’t just open all the doors for you though. It is as much transcendental as it is ascendant

[2.14] And when they meet those who believe, they say: We believe; and when they are alone with their Shaitans, they say: Surely we are with you, we were only mocking - وَإِذَا لَقُوا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا قَالُوا آمَنَّا وَإِذَا خَلَوْا إِلَىٰ شَيَاطِينِهِمْ قَالُوا إِنَّا مَعَكُمْ إِنَّمَا نَحْنُ مُسْتَهْزِئُونَ

2.15 - To go beyond yourself can also be to lose yourself

[2.15] Allah shall pay them back their mockery, and He leaves them alone in their inordinacy, blindly wandering on - اللَّهُ يَسْتَهْزِئُ بِهِمْ وَيَمُدُّهُمْ فِي طُغْيَانِهِمْ يَعْمَهُونَ

2.16 - Like with most things in life, the total gain usually ends up being about sum of that which it cost

[2.16] These are they who buy error for the right direction, so their bargain shall bring no gain, nor are they the followers of the right direction - أُولَٰئِكَ الَّذِينَ اشْتَرَوُا الضَّلَالَةَ بِالْهُدَىٰ فَمَا رَبِحَت تِّجَارَتُهُمْ وَمَا كَانُوا مُهْتَدِينَ

2.17 - Which is why perspective is the most important part of understanding to-self. Not to make you better, but to find a better you

[2.17] Their parable is like the parable of one who kindled a fire but when it had illumined all around him, Allah took away their light, and left them in utter darkness-- they do not see - مَثَلُهُمْ كَمَثَلِ الَّذِي اسْتَوْقَدَ نَارًا فَلَمَّا أَضَاءَتْ مَا حَوْلَهُ ذَهَبَ اللَّهُ بِنُورِهِمْ وَتَرَكَهُمْ فِي ظُلُمَاتٍ لَّا يُبْصِرُونَ

2.18 - If nothing is risked, then even less is earned

[2.18] Deaf, dumb (and) blind, so they will not turn back - صُمٌّ بُكْمٌ عُمْيٌ فَهُمْ لَا يَرْجِعُونَ

2.19 - But if you risk all, then you could gain everything. The difference between what you stand to gain and what you could lose, lies within why it is being sought

[2.19] Or like abundant rain from the cloud in which is utter darkness and thunder and lightning; they put their fingers into their ears because of the thunder peal, for fear of death, and Allah encompasses the unbelievers - أَوْ كَصَيِّبٍ مِّنَ السَّمَاءِ فِيهِ ظُلُمَاتٌ وَرَعْدٌ وَبَرْقٌ يَجْعَلُونَ أَصَابِعَهُمْ فِي آذَانِهِم مِّنَ الصَّوَاعِقِ حَذَرَ الْمَوْتِ ۚ وَاللَّهُ مُحِيطٌ بِالْكَافِرِينَ

2.20 - If you seek things for the right reasons, then you cannot lose, though you may end up left with nothing. “Too lose all for the right reasons, is to feed the soul what money cannot buy”

[2.20] The lightning almost takes away their sight; whenever it shines on them they walk in it, and when it becomes dark to them they stand still; and if Allah had pleased He would certainly have taken away their hearing and their sight; surely Allah has power over all things - يَكَادُ الْبَرْقُ يَخْطَفُ أَبْصَارَهُمْ ۖ كُلَّمَا أَضَاءَ لَهُم مَّشَوْا فِيهِ وَإِذَا أَظْلَمَ عَلَيْهِمْ قَامُوا ۚ وَلَوْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَذَهَبَ بِسَمْعِهِمْ وَأَبْصَارِهِمْ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ

2.21 – Nothing that could ever be known to us, means more to a sore heart, than knowing it gave all that it could

[2.21] O men! serve your Lord Who created you and those before you so that you may guard (against evil) - يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ اعْبُدُوا رَبَّكُمُ الَّذِي خَلَقَكُمْ وَالَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَتَّقُونَ

2.22 – Even if it means nothing to anyone but yourself, knowing you gave all you could, for the right reasons, makes the “burden of self” become lighter than the shoulders which carry it

[2.22] Who made the earth a resting place for you and the heaven a canopy and (Who) sends down rain from the cloud then brings forth with it subsistence for you of the fruits; therefore do not set up rivals to Allah while you know - الَّذِي جَعَلَ لَكُمُ الْأَرْضَ فِرَاشًا وَالسَّمَاءَ بِنَاءً وَأَنزَلَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ مَاءً فَأَخْرَجَ بِهِ مِنَ الثَّمَرَاتِ رِزْقًا لَّكُمْ ۖ فَلَا تَجْعَلُوا لِلَّهِ أَندَادًا وَأَنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ
