Three Minutes to Joy
Affirmations are effective reminders and can be powerful tools upon the spiritual path. In fact, sufis have been using simple affirmations, known as zikr, for over one thousand years to discipline and correct themselves. Much of the Qur’an encourages and advocates the use of affirmations, the scripture itself being essentially the recitation of declarations of truth, it’s daily recitation long considered invaluable to spiritual development. Many verses actually begin with the directive Qul, “Say,” followed by simple yet fundamental truths (such as the Oneness of God) that are to be repeated.
Continually reminding ourselves of what is truly true is an essential exercise in retraining the brain to not only think properly, but also to see what is actually here rather than the fictions the ego creates to justify its belief in pain and suffering, the means it uses to preserve a state of separation.
As one moves towards a state of harmony and alignment with Truth, with Goodness and with Life, we naturally attract positive circumstances, events, people and results into our lives.
This video is a short three minute experience designed to help you remember something you already know, but which the world tends to make us forget: That there is only Goodness.
Enjoy.

Thank u for this wonderful experience, am so glad to have found ur website! I have always been searching for a spiritual and holistic way of Islam, but never really found such wonderful effort anywhere :)! Its really amazing seeing how Prophet Muhammad really saw the world and how he was so clear in his spirituality which is so embedded in sufism! But today we find Islam being tarnished and orthodox muslims condemning this beautiful way of life! But brother I have a question, its great seeing goodness in life and being grateful but wat about seeing how the word is crumbling around us? people dying, being killed, being dominated, seeing sadness all around! How do u think we can overcome all this, see goodness and wellness and at the same time praying, being concerned with wats happening these days! Please wat do u suggest we do here?

I think that what Ghandi said applies here, “We must become the change we wish to seek in the world.” Yes, it’s true that there are horrible things taking place throughout the world, all committed by human beings. Change is the only possibility. And it must begin with us. Before we can change the world, we must change ourselves. We must first eliminate the experience of hell from our own individual lives, and become portals for Divine Grace to enter into the world through us.
Every human being who changes, who awakens, tilts the balance in favor of change for others. When enough people have shifted to a new possibility, everything will change. The world will change.
Thank you for your comments, and to your divine success.
i have notice some positive changes in me. this direction was what i really wated
