A meditation on two contrarians who turned their lives into #philosophy and their suffering into style.

There is a historical link between #YomKippur and Islamic tradition.
Early in Islamic history, before Ramadan was established as the primary month of fasting, the Prophet Muhammad observed the fast on the Jewish Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur), known in Arabic as “Ashura.”
I choose to fast this Yom Kippur, for the first time, as an expression of solidarity with my Jewish brothers/sisters & in hopes for peace in our world 🤲🏼

To begin a conversation
about #Palestine & #Israel
First, you must say:
I am your brother
& you are my sister...
Then, you can speak of history
and compare your losses.

A spiritual master is a vanishing mediator who gives you back to yourself ...
When we listen to a true leader, we discover what we want (or rather, what we always already wanted without knowing it).
A Master is needed because we cannot accede to our freedom directly – to gain access we have to be pushed from outside,
since our ‘natural state’ is one of inert hedonism.

Editors at #channel4news #skynews and #bbc omitted large passages from the statement made by #Israeli captive Yocheved Lifshitz, who was freed by #Hamas last night in which she humanized #Palestinian people.
Instead, they lead with headlines claiming only that “they went through hell", contradicting the publicly released statements by the Israeli captive that she was treated humanely

collectively punished

#standwithisrael means denouncing 700,000 #israeli #settlers
#bringthemhome refers to the right of return of Palestinians, scattered throughout an indifferent world.

Any man – any artist, as Nietzsche would say – climbs the stairway in the tower of his perfection at the cost of a struggle with a duende – not with an angel, as some have maintained, or with his muse.

“Deep within us all there is an amazing inner sanctuary of the soul, a holy place, a Divine Centre, a speaking voice, to which we may continuously return.
Eternity is at our hearts, pressing upon our time-torn lives, warming us with intimations of an astounding destiny, calling us home unto itself.”

‘There are two cardinal sins from which all the others derive: impatience and laziness.
It was because of impatience that they were expelled from Paradise; it is because of laziness that they do not return.
Yet perhaps there is only one major sin: impatience.
Because of impatience they were expelled, because of impatience they do not return.’
