Moving the Black Stone Prophet Muhammad was known as Mustafa Al-Amin (Chosen One of Amen)9 when he was a young man. The Black Stone was out of place and had to be put back where it belonged. All the tribes sought the honor of putting the Stone back in place. Because of his high character and trustworthiness, Muhammad was selected to do the honors. Muhammad decided that one member of each of the four major tribes would hold a corner of a blanket which was slid under the stone and all together they'd replace the Stone to its proper place. The four tribes fulfilled the function, spiritually, of the four elements. There is a procedure for moving the cauldron in Taoism and the tribes' moving of the stone relates to this. Historical evens are often echoes of the inner reality. The Bible, Quran, Upanishads, Bhagavad-Gita, Pert em Hru, Tao-te Ching and many other scriptures contain invaluable knowledge. Once we know that they were written in types of code language for initiates then the process of decrypting them becomes possible. Those books can then assist us in developing the psychic abilities, spiritual powers and divine cultivation that the heroes of antiquity exhibited. Generation of "miracles" can become an everyday part of each of our lives.
1 The human brain has various components. The oldest, in an evolutionary sense, is the reptilian brain, R-Complex or brain stem. this brain is predominant in reptiles. Above this brain, like a limbus, is the mammalian brain. And above the mammalian brain is the cerebral cortex. The mammalian brain is the seat of the emotions. Various scriptural references to sacrificing cows and other mammals are related to the need to transcend the mammalian brain and develop the higher brain functions. 2 Friends of mine actually experienced this. 3 In reality, Islam is much older than Muhammad. Muslims believe that Islam was the religion of all the prophets at least as far back as Noah.
4 In Islam, chi energy is called salaat, baraka, ruh, Sakiynah, etc. 5 The Microcosmic Orbit is a Taoist procedure for moving chi energy through a circular channel called the Smaller Heavenly Circle. 6 See my article "Mothership Connection," for the association of the color white with the ego. 7 Usually translated "He who overcomes." 8 It does take some degree of discipline to endure the austerities of the physical hajj. Those austerities are as next to nothing, however, compared to the life journey of the true (inner) hajj. 9 Muslims would say that Mustafa Al-Amin means "The Trustworthy Chosen One." They would have a problem accepting that Amen remained a big part of their religion, despite the fact that all their prayers end with "Amin" (i.e., "Amen").
