Audio Talk – MP3 – Beowulf, the Dissolution, the loss of the Anglo-Saxon epic tradition, and the British Memory North European Origins, and Misc Topics (2010) (Click the play button, or right click and “save link as”)47:56 minutes.

In John Grigsby’s “Beowulf and Grendel” (2006 Watkins Publishing, UK) the author reflects with sadness that England truly lacks a native “myth” and tradition. He credits J.R.R. Tolkin’s writings, in part, to filling this hole in the English soul.

His confused sentiment, and nostalgia for myth and legend, shows both a dim awareness of something profound: a folklore and history gap. The British People lack some degree of memory of their ancient origins, unlike some other European nations. There is folklore, but it is mostly recent, from the later middle ages. The example of King Arthur reflects Celtic, not Saxon, themes. Indeed, the British were Celtic before the Saxon migrations, but the themes in King Arthur largely reflect Franco-Norman motifs (and many cleverly disguised Islamic themes), while the character of Arthur might, in a distorted way, reflect a more ancient British king or warlord, King Arthur is hardly authentic Anglo-Saxon lore.

Robin Hood and others heroes are all late figures. And what survives of the history of the pre-Norman Anglo-Saxon kingdoms are simple outlines and brief chronicles, lacking nuances, and possibly disguising very interesting possibilities. In whose best interests, we wonder, is this?

It becomes quickly clear that there is a lost history of the Anglo-Saxon peoples, and that stripped away from the English are deeper traditions and epics. To be clear, epics are not myths, not made up tales of magic and dragons, rather they are part of the folk history of a people, albeit distorted due to oral transmission and age,

a people’s epics give them some degree of understanding of their real history and origins. This was stripped away from the English people under very peculiar circumstances, which we will cover.

There is a profound reason for this memory hole, in this chat between Abuabdullah and Ibn Abdulshafi, we examine Beowulf, Anglo-Saxon epic poetry, and the greatest library purge in English history, to reflect on the shaping of the English soul, and the consequences to removing a people’s memory from them.

(Click the play button, or right click and “save link as”)

This Coffee Shop chat between Abuabdullah Benhajj and Ibn Abdulshafi, discusses History and lies, the Huns, their Military strategies, something very unusual going on in North Europe in the 1st century, Human Migrations, also Norse Poetry, Northern European History, the Celts, Germanic and Goth migrations, and about how people project inaccurate assumptions onto history, as well as other topics.

It is a short talk and is the first in our series on the mystery of Indo-European origins. Some parts are difficult to hear, we are working enhancing the audio. There is some humor, and some strong language as well.

We shall post later chats to flesh out these ideas and expose the full theories; and you will find yourself amazed by the radical new theories on genetics, memetics, and human migration being discussed. This material is a crucial part of the puzzle that we are examining, and has broader implications

Please be aware we do on occasions make generalizations, both for to stimulate and provoke thought and action. They are also made due to needs of time, considering the vast number of variables and factors our chats are covering. No malice is intended in any generalized depiction of any specific group, we are looking at broad dynamics that actually affect the whole of humanity.

To put it simple, if you have made it this far with us, and are listening to any of our chats, then know that any generalizations regarding a specific group do not pertain to you. The simple fact of your seeking the truth in such matters by default puts you outside of the general rampaging herd of humanity.

Is There a Global Warming/Climate Change Hoax? – August 5 2010 [mp3]

Synopsis: Brothers Soulaiman Soussi and Ibn Abdulshafi discuss whether or not the idea of Global Warming is a Hoax, and explore the possibility of a Hoax EVEN IF average global temperatures really do show a rising trend, and even if human activities have contributed to this trend.

Is there a hoax? What are the signs of a hoax, how would you define a hoax if you were to encounter one in the street? What does the data really show, and why? These are the questions we explore.

As always the deceiver (dajjal) is linked to this matter, but how? This, we also discuss.

What is Love, a Talk Recorded November 2006 – [mp3]

This discussion occurred on Paltalk in November 2006. In it brother Soulaiman Soussi discusses something very important, an emotion central to our experiences and lives, and one unfortunately subject to incredible Memetic distortion and manipulation. That emotion is Love.

Love, the family, marriage, and our own personal lives are all discussed. What is love, what do different religious and spiritual traditions say about love, how do we experience and feel love, and how do our cultural definitions of love influence us?

This is completely relevant to the overall theme of this site. One way in which we are manipulated is through our emotions, and among them love is one of the strongest. Make no mistake, there are many important and interesting themes in these talks.

The talk is split into 6 files of 30 minutes each. Most of the recording are of good quality, though some of the question voices are unclear.

The Memeppet – How can you save someone that you can’t even help?

We are coining a new word and concept to describe something very important that must be articulated. After all, if something is not put into the right words, understanding it’s true reality may elude us.

Consider this new concept – Meme-ppets [pronounced me’me’pits].

This concept may be a key to unlock a certain understanding for us. Memeppets are short memetic snippets – essentially short and effective memetic constructions. You may regard them as little thought captions.

Memeppets essentially are small slogan like phrases that we often repeat and throw out, they cross our mind when we think, and our tongue when we speak. Repeating them can condition the way we view the world, and our relationship to it.

Regard memeppets as very dangerous to your mental health and soul, when they are malignant.
Some memeppets are malignant, and others are not. Here is one that is malignant and dangerous to you.

Often we hear the phrase “Improving the world” or “saving the world“.

Please do not misunderstand us, for we are not picking on anyone, and this reminder is directed to us as well. Many good hearted and sincere people want to change, improve, or save the world.

But it is the idea of improving or saving the world, the whole world, or a large portion of it, that is a malignant memeppet, infecting a large portion of humanity.

This memeppet is sweet to the mind and tongue, but poison to life.

“Improving the world” and “saving the world” are of those little memetic engineering tricks, that are played on so many good hearted and sincere people. And they are far more dangerous than we may realize.

If you want to improve or save the world, please consider this – do you think that you are going to “save” that goat herder on a mountain slope in Nepal ? Or, let’s say, a Lama herder in Peru?

Tell us, can you “save him” or “improve his lot” without speaking his language, or knowing his religion, or even reaching him – physically or electronically?

Can any of us even reach out to the guy next door to us? Have we reached out to the guy on the corner down the street from us? If we can’t communicate with someone next door, let alone a goat herder in Nepal 10,000 miles away, what business do we have trying to save the world?

“Improving the world” is one of those myopic quests best left to the uninitiated. For we cannot save the world, only God – Allah most high – can save the world, much less than improve it.

In fact, consider the distinct possibility that the world itself is doing just fine without you or I, thank you very much.
Consider the distinct possibility that is we humans, who are in a terrible state.

Start with yourself.
Improve your life, and then try to reach and improve those you love, those standing right next to you.

Now some people may protest; is it not commonly said that messengers like Jesus and Muhammad (peace be upon them) did save, or improve, the world? Or at least the lives of large numbers of people? Aid them, or even save them? The answer, with a straight face, is yes they did. But the whole while their intention was to help those next to them. And it was these people they helped who carried it on to successive generations until finally, even the Sikh cab driver in New York can no benefit directly from New York can now benefit from the work of Muhammad

The point is first and last to worry and seek about helping those you can help, those directly in front of or next to you, those within reach of your words or actions, and not some imaginary goat, or lama, herder in Nepal or Peru, or a New York cab driver

It is only those close to you that you can help, anyone else will be a wasted delusional effort.

“Saving the world” and “improving the world” comes under the category of saying things that we really don’t mean. We often repeat and say a lot of silly stuff that we don’t really mean, this affects our minds and hearts, what we say has the power to confuse us and distract us from doing real productive work.

Now, you may ask: what if those next to me don’t want my help, what if they will not even listen to me?

It is true that some people close to you don’t want help from you.

Consider this little rule of thumb – in history no Prophet is accepted in his own town. Jesus, Muhammad, and Moses were initially not accepted in, and even driven away from, their own town or land.

Do not rack your head against a wall or door that will not budge. If your sledge hammer can’t knock down a wall, then get a friend to help. Instead of using a sledge hammer against a locked door, perhaps someone else knocking will open it. If the door won’t open to you maybe it will open to someone else.

Sometimes your sledge hammer might cause more harm than good. However it is quite possible that a door may open quite peacefully to someone else.

Some doors are not destined for us to open, but they may be destined for someone else to. If you move yourself out of the way, God – Allah most high – may bring someone else. Someone for whom the door or heart closed to you may open.

In fact consider this; that door may actually only be locked because you are standing in its way. When you walk to a door, divine law allows you three knocks before you must turn away, and return from whence you came.

Start with yourself, then those around you, and if their hearts remain closed step away, and seek a helping friend.
Start with understanding and prayer, and all else will follow.

[8/12/10 – we have edited the audio to amplify the voices, it should be easier to hear now]

This is an older interview from 2006 on the real deal behind the themes in Dan Brown’s novel and movie – The Da Vinci Code.

The material was recorded for Soulaiman Soussi’s original project “theawaited.com” – though it’s a bit older the content is still relevant to events going on today. The audio is a little quiet so it is best listened to with headphones.

We are working on the audio quality of our older files, and will continue to refine and upload archived material, as well as recent material dealing with things going on today.

Please take a listen and contact us if you have any questions !

Authority versus Truth – There are two types of souls

There are two types of souls in the world, two types of people. We choose these terms carefully.

The vast majority of humanity mistakes authority for the truth, that position somehow confers truth upon one’s words.

To them, people with authority are somehow seen as different from their people. People make a classic mistake all the time, if a doctor or authority gets on the TV – basically an “expert” they switch off their mind.

But what they fail to realize is that it’s just a mere fallible mortal like any other person, like themselves. Therefore their expertise should be measured against the truth, not the opposite.

They mistake a title of authority or an appearance for the truth. But a truth is a matter of reasoning, and a lie can be garbed in just about any clothing you wish. Even if in the garb of the kingdom of the world a lie is still a lie. But know that the truth can come out of the lips of a babe, or a pauper, or even from the lips of George Bush himself.. though most people wouldn’t recognize it as the truth because they don’t expect the truth to come from such … un-authorative sources or situations.

So, there are two types of souls, those who recognize the truth even if dressed in the garb of a pauper, and those wouldn’t recognize it unless it was dressed in a kings garb, or the right dress correctly.

This has always been the case throughout the history of mankind.

When we said two types of souls, we use the word soul correctly, for deliberate ends, because it sums up much of humanity.

Experts will lie to them over and over again in history, and people will always go back to them and listen to their lies, yet there are other people – a small group and minority – who would not care even if the lie was spoken by, at least seem to have been spoken by, God himself – Allah forbid.

There are some special people who, even if you say “God says this” and you can show them this, even if in [obviously false] scripture, they would not believe it.

Know that this is how all false religion, and how all propaganda works, by issuing the image of authority on top of a lie, even of God himself.

To pick on one example Hinduism, to their authorities the voice of God himself has told them that a cow is worthy of more respect than a human being.

Thus this is why 1.2 billion Hindus fall in the category of the miserable souls we mentioned.. those who mistake authority, the authority of their teachers, their gurus, or their scriptures, with the Truth.

And we are sure that amongst Hindus there are some people who would not be deceived thus, at any cost. That even if their fathers’ authority says a cow is more sacred, their reason and their minds would tell them this is not true, and not care who said it.

So to restate this, it is a miserable soul who mistakes authority for the truth.

Consider this deeply.

Inception 2010, the Movie; Memetics and the Real Deal [mp3]

Audio Talk – MP3 – Understanding Inception (2010) and Memetics
(Click the play button, or right click and “save link as”)

We invite you to listen to our take on understanding the real deal behind some of the ideas in Inception the movie (2010, Warner Brothers). Under Hollywood glitter, Inception takes a provocative look at a very interesting idea.

We will take a deeper look than the movie was willing to take. This critical idea is that concepts, once they find root in our heads, can grow and spread like a seed, and define our entire perception of reality.

As we bring our emotions and experiences, an idea can react, in a dynamic way, with our minds – indeed like a virus spreading through its host.

The science of Memetics, one mostly used nowadays as a sort of black art, can involve the willing, conscious, and intentional engineering of a person’s mind through ideas and concepts.

“A good word is like a good tree” the Quran says. But what of a bad word? Words can guide, but words can also misguide. A single idea can drive one to madness, or can save one’s life. This is an immense responsibility.

In some of the talks and posts that will follow, we will make reference to the sciences and arts of using words and ideas to affect others.

Here, we make an extreme warning. In fact, what you will be reading and witnessing on this site may not only change your life in the most dramatic and drastic way, but it will also change you.

Using certain techniques and ideas for ill will can potentially destroy your soul, and those of others.

As the Quran establishes: “Always enter houses through their front doors.” – to approach the back doors of the mind is the art of the dajjal. These are things we will cover in greater depth later.

The “straight dope” is this – everything on this site comes with an extreme warning – you must be honest. No matter what, always be honest, and never manipulate.

This is our take on the movie Inception, a movie that takes a truth and of course commercializes it, and makes it fantastic and therefore irrelevant. But the main idea of the movie is no jest and is relevant to your daily life.

In more ways than you would suspect.

Listen, and enjoy. Contact us if you have any questions.
