Foreword
1 Foreword The Quran is part of an ancient lineage of data that helps sentient life evolve, and operate similar to the way software works on a machine. With the existence of the Jinn, sentient life is not limited to just carbon based human biology. In the view of the universe all created life is android in nature. Without software such as the Quran, any sentient life form is like an android susceptible to its own whims, habits, and nuances. The title of this book is based on the Quran and androids, such as Jinn and humans, both of whom have choice to evolve further.

Foreword
The subject of this book is based on the many folds of reality that are human, non-human, planetary, as well as the cyclical that span the ages infinitely into the past and into the future. Somewhere in the middle of this very large span of time and existence is the current mode of life in the local time frame of the 21st century. Time is relevant if it exists all. In larger systems of time outside Earth, 50,000 of our years may equate to just a day. Within these giant measures of time, life is created, tested, and evolved. Within life itself is created sentient life which must go through trials and tribulations in order to advance and continue development, or evolution. In these infinite, vast, and long waved time periods, civilizations of intelligent life come and go, pass through stages or tests before moving on to graduated levels.
Somewhere within all this are cycles of
change where life finds itself threatened by phenomenon beyond control. In the strife, struggle, and chaos of life itself, there are many dangers and obstacles that need to be dealt with. The conceptual 2012 is such a phenomenon where the human world may find itself at the crossroads of change. There are many theories on the outcome of the conceptual 2012, however there are very little if any solutions to deal head on with this VII
Foreword
issue. To understand the nature of cyclical time, one needs to go back in time and find evidence if events similar to the conceptual 2012 have taken place. More importantly, how previous iterations of civilizations and life forms may have dealt with their changing world if at all. The scenario of 2012 is impregnated with doomsday visions of global Earth changes, tidal waves, solar flares, as well as earthquakes. Historically there are many accounts from different cultures that a change is underway at a planetary level. This change according to geologists has happened in the past. There are many theories regarding the possible outcomes of the conceptual 2012 event. This is conceptual since there are no devices or theories in place that can actually predict if and when this event is to come about. The Quran has accounts of muli-layered changes affecting many levels of existence that have taken place in the deep, and distant past. There are countless descriptions of oceans swelling, mountains crumbling, smoked red skies, and earthquakes.
Many of these cataclysmic
descriptions fit the imagery currently associated with the conceptual 2012 event and the respective Earth changes. Whether or not this scenario will play itself out in 2012 or after is unknown.

Foreword
With the Japan earthquake and tsunami of March 2011, an unprecedented land mass displacement has occurred which may mark the first major Earth change headed for the conceptual 2012. At the tsunami devastated shores of Japan, six nuclear reactors were compromised spewing large quantities of radioactive material towards places far beyond Japan. Thousands of people were left without adequate food, shelter, supplies, or hygiene. A grim situation no doubt. In the conceptual 2012 event, the same situation would be magnified hundreds of times with a far greater global crisis. Therefore it can be safely assessed that we are not entirely prepared on any level to cope with the aftermath of a global crisis similar to the March 2011 tsunami and earthquake. The purpose of this book is to look into the anatomy of how the universe works and where human beings fit in. In order to understand the human world one needs to take a step back, away from it, outside of it, to gain perspective. When such a step is taken, one is now outside the box. It is here, outside a proverbial box, where the ageless contents of the Quran come into play. The Quran offers a very wide view of not just human beings in the entire scheme of things, but the closest known sentient life, the Jinn, IX
Foreword
who are in a similar boat as man, headed towards a common destination. At each point of a great cycle where the experiment, or subject of one stage, or life form comes to an end, another experiment begins with a different life form, and possibly a different Earth. These are some of the concepts in the Quran that have rarely been brought to light. Not only does the Quran emphasize the possible realities of cataclysm, it also provides a possible solution. The process leading to this solution is like a milestone, achievement, and goal for all sentient life including man and Jinn. This book examines many varied subjects in order to present a picture of what has happened in the past, what may happen today, and how humanity can augment its spirituality to possibly save itself from potential doom. Moses was able to part the Red Sea in his time of crisis. Perhaps we as a collective human species can also gain wisdom and ask the Lord of the Worlds for protection against tsunamis and earthquakes in the loom of the conceptual 2012.

2 The Conceptual 2012 Event Somewhere in time there are suggestions, theories, and signs that a conceptual 2012 may have the propensity to take place.
Several
legends, myths, historical accounts, and current scientific theories communicate the approaching of an asteroid or comet towards Earth. Others suggest the approach of an unknown planet whose tail end is supposed to whip Earth into frenzy. The sky is expected to be filled with debris depicting the falling of the proverbial heavens.

angle and side effect of this is a possible compromise, and shifting of the Earth's magnetic poles. Much is anticipated to take place in the skies. The condition on the surface of Earth with mass human populations is also no less dramatic. The scenario is theorized to be much more horrific as billions of people are potentially in the face of an unknown danger.
Movie
studios have done an excellent job at creating all sorts of doomsday plots. What exactly may or may not happen remains to be seen. Only time will tell the tale of whether humanity survives, and by which process. However all this talk of great changes is not without some reason, or precedence. The most instrumental of all sources for 2012 has been the Mayan long count1 calendar. This calendar keeps track of time at a scale of millions of years. However, the last day on this calendar is December 21, 2012. Even this ancient record is not clear on exactly what will take place on that day, before its coming, or once it has come and gone. Despite which school of thought one may observe, all theories suggest 1

cataclysmic earth changes in the shapes of magnetic pole reversals, as well as physical pole shifts, including collisions with comets, planets, and even the sliding of the Earth's crust. In recent times, many popular films that have attempted to depict the potentiality of this event, may be entirely inaccurate since they do not address the threat of nuclear fallout. Some of these popular films are Day After Tomorrow, The Core, and 2012. What may happen depends on the prerequisites of the conceptual 2012. If the entire planet is going to undergo some major change, then it has to start somewhere. Before the land masses move hundreds of miles from their current position, determining when and where the first few centimeters are taking place, or will take place is critical. Once land masses have moved, and the poles have shifted, it is far too late to apply any preventative methods, or reaction in a way that would aid in survival. The prerequisite would therefore appear to be a major land mass move that is well beyond normal levels. The search for this prerequisite may lead to the Japan earthquake. Based on the Japan earthquake and tsunami of March 11, 2011, the probability of a pole shift, followed by land mass displacement now 2 The Conceptual 2012 Event

has evidence. In the aftermath of the Japan earthquake, the Japanese land mass had moved nearly 2.5 meters (8 feet) as initially reported. On May 19, 2011 newer findings showed the seabed has moved about 20 meters (65 feet) 2. Historically, most land masses move less than 15cm 3 per year in any direction. In the case of Japan March 2011, several key plates are responsible for influencing life in that region. Beneath the surface of Japan are 4 tectonic plates: The North American Plate, The Eurasian Plate, The Philippine Sea Plate, and the Pacific Plate. The constant fluctuations of pulling, pushing and colliding of these plates in the region cause much havoc. The resulting earthquakes are far greater in magnitude and frequency. Therefore the devastation factor is more pronounced than anywhere else on the planet. The resulting underwater earthquakes are behind the creation of massive tidal waves, commonly known as tsunamis. Tsunamis can be any where from hundreds of meters in height near the epicenter, to only a few feet in height thousands of miles away. In the Japan March 2011 earthquake, the tsunami was reported at no 2 3

Zarrar Sheikh
more than 9 meters (30 feet) in height, with speeds ranging from several hundred kilometers per hour at sea, to about 50 Km h (31 Mph) at the shoreline4. At the shoreline approach, a tsunami builds up height and strength therefore becoming an unstoppable mass of water, with the volume and pressure of millions of tons of ocean water behind it. Not much can resist in the path of the tsunami, as is now evident in Japan. Elsewhere in places such as Indonesia, Thailand, and others in the region, the situation is similar. Mud volcanoes in Indonesia have been erupting since at least 2006, and continue their havoc without end. These are not doomsday signs, these are simply signs that things are changing. The tectonic plates on a worldwide scale are on the move in different directions. Speculation and data modeling suggest the potential sinking of some land masses, rising of new ones from the oceans, and lifting up of others from their current levels. This seems more like the prerequisite of a changing world rather than a world destined to cataclysmic events. In an ever changing world, the one act or process that can be applied is preparedness. The best 4

strategy for being prepared involves having the necessary gear, tools, and supplies to continue existing. One of the greatest potential threats to the human population is something much more sinister than planets, or comets falling to the Earth. The threat is that of worldwide nuclear reactor installations. In the event of a global cataclysm, nuclear fallout remains the very large monster that creates damage in stages over time. In terms of preparedness, not much can be done to circumvent the effects of short term and long term radiation dangers. The focus of this book is not nuclear energy. However, it is important to state the dangers of nuclear reactors in times of crisis. In the approach of the conceptual 2012, the role of nuclear fallout needs to be addressed.

3 Nuclear Energy There has always been a sense of caution regarding nuclear power. Despite the almost positive statistics of fatalities arising from nuclear meltdowns compared to road traffic accidents, or other events that result in fatalities, nuclear power is still much more dangerous than anything else in the wake of a possible crisis. Without going into a debate over the pros and cons of nuclear reactor safety, emergency protocols, and efficiency, the one aspect that can never be overlooked is the disposal of the spent nuclear waste, which 3 Nuclear Energy
Qurandroid
23
needs to be stored for thousands of years. With each passing cycle of nuclear reactor operations, yes, clean energy is produced today on the metric that there are no carbon emissions, or the threat of green house gases. However, the exponential build up of stored radioactive material which poses severe consequences to human life, should not be ignored. The dangers of radioactivity are never in dispute. Genetic mutations, prolonged ailments, as well as food chain contamination are just a few of the large scale problems resulting from a potential nuclear fallout. One must ask, or wonder the costs of this clean energy today, and what price future generations and our kids of today will pay5. There is no great payoff from nuclear energy no matter how it is analyzed. This is because as an allegedly perfect replacement to fossil fuels, the total sum of nuclear operations that provide electricity is less than 25% worldwide. The remaining 75% is still carbon based from fossil fuels. According to the European Nuclear Society, in 2011 there are a total of 4426 nuclear reactors worldwide that are in operation, while another 65 5 6

are under construction. That is more than 500 nuclear reactors. Based on the basic idea of how nuclear reactors are designed, they are almost always constructed near water channels. It is the availability of water that is needed for cooling purposes. As evidenced in the Japan nuclear fallout of March 2011, without adequate cooling, the threat of a nuclear meltdown is not only a dire possibility, but also a grave reality with lethal side effects. Believing that radioactive fallout from Japan may never reach the streets of New York City is not a question of if, or how, but when. Quite simply, nuclear fallout can travel around the globe without much resistance. In the possible cataclysmic earth changes of the conceptual 2012, nuclear

and
compromised with any combination of earthquakes, floods, pole shifts, solar flares and especially land mass changes. With a loss of power, as seen in the Japan March 2011 earthquake, there is no way for the cooling processes to function. An un-cooled nuclear reactor is an impending disaster. The likelihood of global electrical failure is not a theory or speculation anymore. 3 Nuclear Energy
It has
Qurandroid
25
happened in Japan in a localized way with devastating effects on every aspect of life. On a widespread global level, where all nuclear reactors become uncontrolled, the effects are multiplied many times over. With the intervention of the G7, and more than 50 countries, the world has come to the aid of Japan in her time of need. Japan will rebuild no doubt, and bounce back with great probability. In the aftermath of a conceptual 2012 scenario, what has happened to Japan would be the crisis facing almost every nation in the world. In such an event, it may not be possible to expect assistance from the global community. Within their own respective circles, the global community will be dealing with their own crisis, and unable to help anyone else. The situation with nuclear energy is that of an uncertain future. There are more than 500 nuclear reactors worldwide.
If these nuclear
reactors were to be in similar disarray as Japan's 6 nuclear reactors, Earth would be a radioactive nightmare. With reactors based on different design and energy output schemes, controlling them in a crisis situation becomes difficult. Some nuclear power plants require more energy than others; therefore their internal management and control processes are varied. 3 Nuclear Energy
The nuclear fallout as
26
Zarrar Sheikh
a result would also be non-uniform. Logically, greater fallout and increased levels of radiation would come from the power plants capable of producing more power. Pakistan has two reactors, and globally produces the lowest amount of total power at 425 MW. The United States has the highest number of nuclear reactors (104), and produces the most power at a total of 100,747 MW7. Of the 104 nuclear reactors in the United States, 27 are near the New Madrid fault line in the Midwest, and another 8 nuclear reactors in the West also in proximity to fault lines. In the event of a conceptual 2012 drama, fault lines are often the first to move8. Nuclear reactors dot the planet in a dangerous mix which may prove that no one really wins, as there are no great benefits from nuclear energy. Despite the large number of nuclear reactors, the total output of power in the United States alone is still less than 23% from this source of energy.
The question to ask is whether 23% is really worth the
dangers of nuclear power. And since globally, the total output of 7 8
[ENS] [WSJ Fault Line]
3 Nuclear Energy
Qurandroid
27
electricity from nuclear sources is less than 16% from more than 550 reactors, the dangers far outweigh the benefits. Among these and many other arguments based on crisis management, nuclear power is a no win situation.
In light of potential Earth
changing events, the human species may manage to survive the earthquakes, tidal waves, and loss of societal infrastructure in the conceptual 2012. Humanity, however, will face an arduous task in dealing with radioactive fallout spreading the globe for an unspecified period of time. It takes thousands of years for nuclear radiation to neutralize. The end result in this horrific scene is the possible extinction of human beings, in a slow radioactive demise. This is the most horrific potential threat to the world as we know it today. The average world citizen may not be able to change the course of human civilization, nor is it expected. The average world citizen, however, does have the right to survive in the best way possible on an individual level, as well as societal. The availability of survival gear may not be accessible to everyone, but it does not mean there is no protection for the average man, woman, and 3 Nuclear Energy

child. Protection and crisis management come in two methods.
One is
preventative, and the other is at the face of danger itself, in the form of a reaction. Reactive management is not the ideal way. It is always advisable to prevent something well in advance of its occurrence. The goal of this book is to provide a set of knowledge tools that can be applied in dealing with crisis management. The approach is that of a spiritual element, by which an individual may find help from the higher powers in the universe. Both reactive and preventative protection scenarios can be put into use by synchronizing with the higher powers of the universe. Being that the universe is a big place with lots of good and bad forces in, there needs to be a road map. There maybe an entire hierarchy of power in the universe. Upon attempting to access the higher powers it is always a good idea to know which power source, level, or hierarchy one is trying to connect with. Connecting or using any of these powers at random is the equivalent of submitting a resume to the janitor.

Therefore seeking help from the main source, God, Allah, or the Lord of the Worlds is a far better process. In order to understand the phenomenon of the higher powers, it is important to understand some prerequisites to human beings. One needs to go back into the infinite past to determine what happened, how life may have come about. Now that human beings are here, what next? How do we fix what went broken. There are lots of powers that one can connect to and request help. However, invoking the wrong ones can lead to more problems. Help should be sought from the one central power source from which all others stem. The one and mighty Lord of the Worlds.

4 The Universal Nameless God Well before human beings, an Earth, or even the known universe, the source of all things possible was already in place. This unknown phenomenon goes by many definitions9. Some call this phenomenon God, Allah, Lord of the Worlds, as well as a plethora of other references spanning cultures, times, and possibly dimensions and universes. 9
[Names of God]
4 The Universal Nameless God
Qurandroid
31
(7:180 Surah Al-A'raf The Heights) The most beautiful names belong to Allah: so call on him by them; but shun such men as use profanity in his names: for what they do, they will soon be requited. (17:110 Surah Al-Isra The Night Journey) Say: "Call upon Allah, or call upon Rahman: by whatever name ye call upon Him, (it is well): for to Him belong the Most Beautiful Names. Neither speak thy Prayer aloud, nor speak it in a low tone, but seek a middle course between."
In the Quran this phenomenon has been referenced by approximately 99 names. This is an approximate number since some of the names overlap each other. Therefore the exact number of names for this phenomenon is not known, only suggested.
For all intents and
purposes, on this Earth for here and now, human beings have available 99 names by which to invoke this merciful force. Since it is possible to refer to this force, or God by any name, this therefore is a nameless God. Even the word God is not required. It is simply a phenomenon. According to the Quran this phenomenon is the Creator of Worlds. Far away beyond the known cosmos, and yet right here as well among human beings. This is therefore, and apparently, an omnipotent force that is ever present.
4 The Universal Nameless God
32
Zarrar Sheikh
It is important to understand that God is part of matter, but is not made of matter. God is part of the unseen universe because it cannot be sensed by the 5 physically oriented human senses. Therefore God is part of the realm shared by thought, emotions, psychological and mental elements. Yet at the same time, God is not made of emotions, or thoughts. To best classify God, we can say God is an energy type phenomenon. Not necessarily energy as in the human definitions such as electricity, but some universal form of energy unknown, and undetected by mechanical devices. Energy can also be caused by vibrations 10. Especially those found in earthquakes, as well as those minute electrical currents in the human nervous system. During a particular emotion, the frequency of these electrical currents changes. The electrical currents in the human brain also fluctuate based on various environmental factors.
This is
therefore the realm of frequencies, vibrations, and shades of resonance. This is important to note, since in the Quran, plants, animals and all life except humans sing the praises of this phenomenon known as God. For the lack of a better word, perhaps the term sing really means vibration. This is because singing is the process of how sound vibrations travel. 10 [Vibrational Energy]
4 The Universal Nameless God
Qurandroid
33
To better understand this, it may help if one were to replace the word singing with words like frequency, sound waves, oscillations, and vibrations. In this light, the birds, and animals vibrate (sing) the praises of the Lord of the Worlds. Or to look at it from another angle, all these life forms are resonating, or synchronized with the same emanating frequency of the all mighty God. But why use the term Lord of the Worlds? Because it gives the best description of this phenomenon in its ability to be a literal part of everything without necessarily needing a physical body. Even using the word it is incorrect, because the phenomenon is not an object. It is beyond reproduction, beyond gender, and definitely beyond human comprehension using methods limited to third dimension physics. Third dimension physics are the limited human interpretation of how the world works based on what mechanical machines, and devices tell us. We can use a machine to calculate things like time, speed, volume, temperature, and many others based on our 5 senses. What we cannot measure using any machine is thought, certain brain wave nuances, or the minute variances in the human electrical field when the hair on an arm stand up.
4 The Universal Nameless God
34
Zarrar Sheikh
There is more that cannot be measured by machines and devices. Therefore this presents a problem for human beings since our thoughts, feelings, and emotions constantly try to remember that there is something else, another aspect of existence. But we have simply forgotten it, or become detached from it. This is by no fault of our own, rather that the state of the Earth may have changed in the distant past. And that the current version of sentient Earth life may well be a result of this ancient change. Dealing with change successfully is very critical. Understanding that change must come is even more important. Realizing that changes have taken place in the past, and will continue to do so is to internalize the potential reality of the universe as it interplays with the Earth. To look the other way is not only ill advised, but very dangerous in the potential wake of Earth changes.

5 The Jinn View of Earth It is not known when, or why, but somewhere in the distant past is an account illustrating a change of some kind as mentioned in the Quran. This change may have been similar in nature to the conceptual 2012 paradigm shift but taking place thousands thousands of years ago. It is unknown if this took place 26,000 years ago, millions of years ago, or anywhere else in the aboriginal space of time. Understanding when this took place is less important than determining its actual occurrence. Even more important is discerning whether or 5 The Jinn View of Earth
Qurandroid
37
not the Earth and its inhabitants are still under the influence of this change. As in any paradigm shift, there are uncertainties on the future outlook for those witnessing, and living in such an event, or in the wake of its existence. There are a few excerpts from the Quran that hint, or rather clearly state the possibility of such a change in the distant past. It highlights a conversation, or viewpoint of the Jinn, who are effected by this unknown change. This Jinn clearly states (referencing the previous order of the world) that it was possible to sit in hidden stations and listen to what was being said by the hierarchical order of the heavens. (72:8 Surah Jinn The Jinn) And we pried into the secrets of heaven; but we found it filled with stern guards and flaming fires. (72:9 Surah Jinn The Jinn) 'We used, indeed, to sit there in (hidden) stations, to (steal) a hearing; but any who listen now will find a flaming fire watching him in ambush. '
At the advent of this new paradigm, however, the Jinn were no longer able to listen, spy, or overhear what was being discussed. Apparently, any such attempts now are met by a flaming fire. This certainly raises questions on who the Jinn really are, and what kind of information 5 The Jinn View of Earth
38
Zarrar Sheikh
they were trying to gather. Of course the most concerning question raised is about the differences between the previous paradigm and the current one mentioned. The Jinn being far different from human beings, and perhaps more advanced, still do not fully understand the nature or implication this paradigm shift has for the Earth. The Jinn, just like human beings have free will and therefore follow different paths of conduct. Though Jinn are made of a smokeless fire, and have powers beyond mortal man, they are also affected by this change. A smokeless fire can be anything from plasma lights, lasers, to any other energy source emitting the appearance of a very bright light without human perceivable combustion that results in smoke. The role of light and energy is important in the context of the Quran. Nearly every element of the universe is part of some characteristic of light, illumination, or a smokeless fire. There is a Surah named The Light, which signifies the importance of what can be perceived as light. Therefore, it is not only life in the material human form that is affected, but also those made of a smokeless fire such as Jinn. This 5 The Jinn View of Earth
Qurandroid
39
ancient paradigm shift also seems to introduce the Jinn to the Quran, which contains applicable parameters of guidance. Any source of information without
applicable benefits does not adopt well. The
contents of the Quran must have been significant enough to create interest in some Jinn. The Quran that has now materialized at this ancient time of change could be the Arabic Quran as received by the prophet Muhammad, or it could be another version from a different time, culture or language. The current Quran is the latest version stemming from a long line of transmissions from the infinite past. Whatever the significance of the Quran is, or was as understood by the Jinn, it was adopted as a guide and a path towards a goal or synchronization with the parameters of this new paradigm shift. It is almost always
about synchronicity, which practically means
adaptation. (72:10 Surah Jinn The Jinn) 'And we understand not whether ill is intended to those on earth, or whether their Lord (really) intends to guide them to right conduct. (72:11 Surah Jinn The Jinn) 'There are among us some that are righteous, and 5 The Jinn View of Earth
40
Zarrar Sheikh
some the contrary: we follow divergent paths. (72:12 Surah Jinn The Jinn) 'But we think that we can by no means frustrate Allah throughout the earth, nor can we frustrate Him by flight. (72:13 Surah Jinn The Jinn) 'And as for us, since we have listened to the Guidance, we have accepted it: and any who believes in his Lord has no fear, either of a short (account) or of any injustice.
This part of Surah Jinn is a rare account of what has transpired. A lot of things are taking place at this junction. There is a master plan by God that no one can frustrate, as there are the parameters of what is beneficial for sentient life. With the known sentient life forms such as Jinn and man, it can be posited that other unknown life forms may also exist. Therefore the guidance and message of whatever is in the Quran is not just limited to human beings in the distant past. Because this section of Surah Jinn references this unknown paradigm shift, it may also imply that the current Earth era might be engrossed in the effects of this. It is possible that we are living in the time frame resulting from this ancient change. To understand whether we are 5 The Jinn View of Earth
Qurandroid
41
actually living in this wave, we need to analyze the current conditions of not just Earth, but human beings also. If each paradigm shift were a pivot point, then the zones before it and after it would be starkly different. If there were no differences, then it would suggest that there is no change. Therefore, looking and analyzing the situation of present day Earth, it can be possible to deduce that the previous paradigm must be opposite, contrasted or different than the way the world is in the 21st century. Today, human beings have not achieved in enigmatic knowledge, or mastery over the elements to the extent man had shown in previous periods in metaphysics. Most people today are not able to look at the stars and make practical sense, or be able to have Jinn collaborators. This may not be possible today as the laws of physics may not accommodate, or be compatible with such scenarios. However, the dynamics of the ancient laws of physics allowed collaboration to take place between various life forms such as man and Jinn. Accounts in the Quran mention Solomon and his ability to control Jinns of various kinds.
Different types of Jinn have different

capabilities, strengths, and attributes. Some Jinn are faster than others, some obedient, while other with their own intentions and agenda. Solomon however, being human, was able to control Jinns. This type of control is not necessarily enslavement, but more of a working relationship in trying to reach a common goal. The common goal may have been derived and mutually understood from the received Quran transmissions. Since Jinn follow divergent paths, perhaps the ones that accepted the new guidance in this new paradigm were working with Solomon. Solomon was a follower of the Quran, and was given permission by the Lord of the Worlds to work with these Jinn. The Quran is a universal message which does not discriminate between man and Jinn. Therefore it is evident that something in the Quran strikes a positive chord with those who understand it. Perhaps there is a common thread that all sentient life forms have.
This
commonality is what brings together, unifies, and creates harmony in intelligent life including Jinn and man. Perhaps this commonality is the ability to realize the existence of a central force (Lord of the Worlds, God, Allah), which also is the 5 The Jinn View of Earth

common element across sentience.
Many concepts and words have
been in use to convey connection to this commonality. One such word is worship. The anatomy of worshiping, no matter how it is done, is essentially an exercise in connecting to some aspect, element, or force. Based on the Quran, both Jinn and men are able to synchronize and connect with the Lord of the Worlds. (34:12 Surah Saba Sheba) And to Solomon (We made) the Wind (obedient): Its early morning (stride) was a month's (journey), and its evening (stride) was a month's (journey); and We made a Font of molten brass to flow for him; and there were Jinns that worked in front of him, by the leave of his Lord, and if any of them turned aside from our command, We made him taste of the Penalty of the Blazing Fire.
The concept of time in the Quran universe is quite different from the one used in the modern era of mechanical devices. There is nothing terribly wrong with mechanical devices, except their limitations for the full analysis of what is perceived as time. Time in the Quran is relative, and perhaps even elastic and subject to the powers, and nuances of the universe. The content of the Quran spans the ages and remains relevant whether one were to go into the 5 The Jinn View of Earth

future or go back in time. It may seem fantastic, but in all reality Earth time is just that, Earth time. There are different versions of time in the Quran. There is a universal time beyond Earth and then there is Earth time as calculated by the positions of the local celestial bodies such as the moon and sun.

6 The Great Expanse of Time The heavens and the Earth were created in six days. The concept of time in the Quran is one that is not at all rigid. There is a difference in the levels, scales, and implementations of time.
The perceivable
passing of time maybe different for the various eras the Earth has gone through historically. Time is relative to the elements that allow for its measurement. For this reason, time does not really exist. And if it does exist, it only does

so based on the relative positioning, and rotations of the nearby objects that influence Earth. In the current mode of measurement, the sun, and the moon play a major role in how much time elapses in the human world and how it is calculated. (7:54 Surah Al-A'raf The Heights) The sun, the moon, and the stars were all created and governed by the Lord of the Worlds.
With a deeper understanding of the Quran, an entirely different mode of perception takes place.
Even though the Quran was received,
recorded, or written approximately 1,400 years ago, its content dates back to earlier events and enigmatic origins of the universe as it relates to human beings on Earth. The transmissions from the source, which materialize into the Quran, are outside the bounds of time. For this reason, when diving into the concepts of the Quran, keeping an open mind is incredibly important. It is critical to emphasize the elasticity and relative nature of time itself in light of the Quran. This is because a day (somewhere outside of the Earth time system) might be equal to thousands of local Earth years.
6 The Great Expanse of Time
48
Zarrar Sheikh
(10:5 Surah Yunus Jonah) It is He Who made the sun to be a shining glory and the moon to be a light (of beauty), and measured out stages for her; that ye might know the number of years and the count (of time). Nowise did Allah create this but in truth and righteousness. (Thus) doth He explain His Signs in detail, for those who understand. (70:4 Surah Al-Ma'arij The Ascending Stairways) The angels and the spirit ascend unto him in a Day the measure whereof is (as) fifty thousand years: (22:47 Surah Al-Haj The Pilgrimage) Yet they ask thee to hasten on the Punishment! But Allah will not fail in His Promise. Verily a Day in the sight of thy Lord is like a thousand years of your reckoning. (97:3 Surah Al-Qadr The Power) The Night of Decree is better than a thousand months.
Should the respective orbital speed, and rotation of the Earth and moon experience a change, the resulting calculations of Earth time would also experience change. So when a day somewhere else in a different mode of time is equal to thousands of Earth years, it is important to keep in mind that Earth time also fluctuates in its respective metrics. This further suggests with conviction that time really does not exist. It took the Lord of the Worlds 6 days to create the heavens and the 6 The Great Expanse of Time
Qurandroid
49
Earth. Perhaps each day was 50,000 years of Earth time. With this calculation, the time to create the heavens and the Earth could be 300,000 of Earth years. Of course it is not known which iteration, or previous cycle of time, or creation process this may have taken place. There may be countless versions and cycles of creation, decay, and renewal. At an even greater outward expansion of time, perhaps this stretch of 300,000 years is no more than a fragment or a spec in comparison to another hierarchical system of time calculation. All this illustrates the relativity of time. Perhaps this relativity of time in the Quran is present to ignite the human mind with curiosity and wonderment in an attempt to illustrate that human beings are not alone in the universe. Or that there are relative systems outside of Earth by which to help human beings understand and learn how to think outside the box. Since the nature of time is as such, this puts an entirely different perspective on our own world, the crisis in Japan, nuclear power and the approach of the conceptual 2012 event. Time therefore does not exist as we have come to view it.

If the nuclear catastrophe in Japan seems to have happened today, it is the wrong view. The roots of the present human condition date back to antiquity, perhaps to the previous paradigm shift. Thousands if not hundreds of thousands of years ago. Perhaps even before the current version of recorded history. As one era ends, another begins. Life continues to struggle forward until it reaches its destiny, which is the process of individual growth and development. Life is just a test administered to see well we do as human beings. To determine what choices we make at the various stages of life events that are encountered. (2:155 Surah Al-Baqarah The Cow) Be sure we shall test you with something of fear and hunger, some loss in goods or lives or the fruits (of your toil), but give glad tidings to those who patiently persevere,
At the human level, it would prove beneficial to be part of this vast structure of time spans, life forms, and hierarchies leading up to the Lord of the Worlds. Despite being referenced as the Lord of the Worlds, and seemingly far 6 The Great Expanse of Time

7 The Human Machine Node Despite the many descriptions, classifications, and terms available to define human beings as a “featherless biped� or a social animal, the reality of human potentiality is far different.
No other animal can

(23:14 Surah Al-Mu'minun The Believers) Then We made the sperm into a clot of congealed blood; then of that clot We made a (fetus) lump; then we made out of that lump bones and clothed the bones with flesh; then we developed out of it another creature. So blessed be Allah, the best to create! (39:2 Surah As-Sajdah) But He fashioned him in due proportion, and breathed into him something of His spirit. And He gave you (the faculties of) hearing and sight and feeling (and understanding): little thanks do ye give!
Unlike other life forms on Earth, human beings are endowed with the spirit of the Lord of the Worlds in a particular configuration. This by any definition can be considered similar to an electric current running through a mechanical machine. In this case the machine is biological, hence the human machine. Without this current all would fall apart. This electric current is also responsible for maintaining simple to advance functions of development in all types of matter including inanimate, animate, intelligent, as well as the mundane 11. Everything in the phenomenal world is implemented from this basic current. The current is like a coaxial cable carrying a lot of information which separates its signal based on the receiving machine. Therefore different 11 [Tielhard Human Energy]

life forms will will react differently to such a current. When considering the human body as a mechanical machine, and the intangible electrical current similar to software, it betters the analogy in defining the complexity of the human life form. Any ideal machine design includes hardware, software, and some form of a network connection.
Without this, even the best machines fall towards
obsolescence. Most advanced machines have the ability to connect to the Internet, or some network in order to synchronize information, update the software and so forth. The main component responsible for this is the network interface. Computers can utilize different network interfaces based primarily on either wireless, or wired. In order to use a network interface several key things need to be in place. Among the most important part of this process is ensuring the network interface has a secure connection. Without a secure connection, the local computer (node on the network) is subject to hackers, viruses, spy ware, malware, and devastating forces constantly trying to take over the computer, or listen in on private information. This is what the Jinns were doing before some 7 The Human Machine Node

paradigm shift incapacitated their efforts. From a maintenance perspective, many components need to be installed and updated including driver definitions of the hardware associated with a particular machine function. There is a constant flow of information between a computer and the Internet for many purposes.

Of course, when the button is clicked, it is too late. The user has now invoked something worthy of regret. Some of the dangerous side effects of this are computer failure, loss of data, and a complete disorientation of all normal functions. Some odd, strange, and powerful force has now infected the computer. Not surprisingly, the human experience, physicality, psychology and 7 The Human Machine Node

role in the universe works in a very similar way to this computer scenario. Perhaps computer and machine designs are modeled after organic life forms such as human beings. Human beings therefore can be considered like a node on the universal network. In the entire totality of the universe, there are hierarchies of forces, beings, and processes above and below the level of control granted to human beings. This is like a line of scale where human beings are at 0 (zero) while there being aspects above (+0) and below (-0) the level of zero. There is a constant interplay between all levels as their effects are interconnected.
It is an interconnected chain of events with
interconnected influences. The human machine is a unique design that has the capability to also connect to an Internet. This Internet is the realm of the Lord of the Worlds. In this realm exist many life forms with both benevolent and malevolent inclinations. Therefore approaching with caution, security and protection is always advisable. Just like avoiding dangerous and unknown areas of the mechanical Internet, avoiding the malevolent areas of the universe is also advisable. Just as using a firewall is considered a good implementation for computers, invoking Allah, God, Lord of the Worlds (known by at 7 The Human Machine Node
Qurandroid
57
least 99 name, or any name you like) is the best option for human beings.
Where a computer must either dial-up, or connect its IP
address to a server and then dial different web addresses, the human machine has the capacity to invoke the various addresses of the universe. For internet navigation there are search engines, web directories, blogs, and many other guides and directions in order to avoid potentially bad places. For human beings there is currently no such search engine, or directory of resources by which to navigate the universe. Therefore, when considering a connection to the universe, it is advised to connect only through the Lord of the Worlds. This is because The Lord of the Worlds can be considered something to the effect of a firewall, as well as the source code of everything. It is the central force of the universe from which all others stem in their unique iterations, inclinations, as well as expressions of creation scenarios and realities. No matter where one would veer off into the universe, the Lord of the Worlds will be ever present tirelessly. (4:117 Surah An-Nisa The Women) They (all those who worship others than Allah) invoke nothing but female deities besides Him 7 The Human Machine Node
58
Zarrar Sheikh
(Allah), and they invoke nothing but Shaitan (Satan), a persistent rebel! (7:180 Surah Al-A'raf The Heights) And to Allah belong the best names, so invoke Him by them. And leave [the company of] those who practice deviation concerning His names. They will be recompensed for what they have been doing. (10:106 Surah Yunus Jonah) And do not invoke besides Allah that which neither benefits you nor harms you, for if you did, then indeed you would be of the wrongdoers.'" (16:20 Surah An-Nahl The Bee) And those they invoke other than Allah create nothing, and they [themselves] are created.
Similarly, just as a computer can update its software, get a patch, or download key pieces of self maintenance, human beings are able to accomplish similar feats. Of course with the exception that unlike computers which are bound by their hardware and software limitations to grow or evolve, human beings can develop and grow with great leaps and bounds. Both computers and human beings also face an EOLC (end-of-lifecycle).
By the time a human being has reached EOLC, great
transformations, wisdom and maturity may have been achieved. It is dependent on the individual. Self realization, or becoming self aware 7 The Human Machine Node
Qurandroid
59
is a key element to the design of human beings.
By the time a
computer or machine has reached EOLC, it has gained nothing, nor attained wisdom. Machines and human beings share some common design elements, but are quite different from beginning to end. As of this writing computers have not become self aware, and are not able to augment their hardware or software without human intervention. Despite this, there are advancements that allow the computer to update itself with predefined parameters.
The next
logical question that arises is determining what is involved for human beings to connect with the universe.

For non-human mechanical machines, transmission of data comes in various nuances of electrical currents.

Data is then transmitted through this particular iteration of light.

In the Quran universe, light also plays a very important part. There are several references on the different types of light that are used or implemented.
The following selected Surahs are critical in
understanding the role of mankind and the connection to the universe. (14:1 Surah Ibrahim Abrahim) ALR. A Book which We have revealed unto thee, in order that thou mightest lead mankind out of the depths of darkness into light - by the leave of their Lord - to the Way of (Him) the Exalted in power, worthy of all praise!(24:35 Surah An-Nur The Light) Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The Parable of His Light is as if there were a Niche and within it a Lamp: the Lamp enclosed in Glass: the glass as it were a brilliant star: Lit from a blessed Tree, an Olive, neither of the east nor of the west, whose oil is well-nigh luminous, though fire scarce touched it: Light upon Light! Allah doth guide whom He will to His Light: Allah doth set forth Parables for men: and Allah doth know all things. (15:27 Surah Al-Hijr The Rocky Tract) And the jinn, We created aforetime from the smokeless flame of fire.
A smokeless fire emits light whether or not it can carry data or transmit information. The light of heaven is enigmatic and could also mean the proverbial light of morality, truth, ethics, and good conduct that affects human existence. However, this light also has a more 7 The Human Machine Node

profound connection to human beings as it allows reception, or synchronization with the Lord of the Worlds. The equivalent of a network interface that allows this light in human beings is perhaps the greatest element of intelligent life. Within the human brain is a small pea sized structure commonly known as the pineal gland. The name is derived from its shape which resembles a triangle. Triangles are also the base shape of pyramids, and pine cones. The pineal gland resembles a pine cone, therefore the name pineal gland. It is located in the center of the brain, between the two hemispheres. Apparently it is tucked inside a small niche. From the analytical methods of mechanical science, the function of the pineal gland is to regulate the modulation of wake and sleep patterns as well as seasonal functions in various states of biochemical activity12. Despite such a seemingly biological function in the current scientific view, ancient bases of knowledge have always seen the pineal gland much differently and with greater relevance to the spiritual world. Historically, in many ancient texts from different cultures, times, and 12 [Pineal Gland Metatonin]
7 The Human Machine Node
Qurandroid
63
iterations, the pineal gland has been referenced as the seat of the soul13, the window to the universe, and the third eye. The Quran makes a reference to such a phenomenon (24:35). This description fits the location of the pineal gland being inside a niche. According to Renee Descartes (1596–1650) the French philosopher often dubbed as the father of modern philosophy, the description of the pineal gland is that it sits at the center of the two halves of the brain, as in perhaps neither of the East or West, as hinted in the Quran. Descartes uses the image of branches that lead to the pineal gland, perhaps similar to the proverbial olive tree in (24:35). The suggestions of Descartes corroborate the verbal illustrations of the Quran regarding the pineal gland. The view of Descartes14: My view is that this gland is the principal seat of the soul, and the place in which all our thoughts are formed. The reason I believe this is that I cannot find any part of the brain, except this, which is not double. Since we see only one thing with two eyes, and hear only one voice with two ears, and in short have never more than one thought at a time, it must necessarily be the case that the impressions which enter by the two eyes or by the two ears, and so on, unite with each other in some part of the body before being considered by the soul. Now it is impossible to find any such place in the whole head except this gland; moreover it is situated in the most suitable 13 [Descartes Treatise] 14 [Descartes Treatise]

possible place for this purpose, in the middle of all the concavities; and it is supported and surrounded by the little branches of the carotid arteries which bring the spirits into the brain.
Plato, Aristotle and Zarathustra among countless others, have all suggested the importance of the pineal gland15. The dynamics of the pineal gland and its knowledge are cross cultural that span time periods through the ages. The importance of the pineal gland cannot be diluted. With the pineal gland in the equation of the potential 2012 event, the next step is making it work. There are many processes to undertake before getting the pineal gland to work like a network interface able to send and receive communications between the human node and the universal internet. With proper practice, and discipline in psychological self control, mental focus, and physical training, the pineal gland will react 16. Results may vary based on individual circumstances on a variety of factors. All human beings have a pineal gland, therefore following through and understanding the steps outlined here will very much help in achieving this goal. 15 [Secret Teachings of All Ages] 16 [PG Eye of God]

7.2 Updating the Human: Anatomy of Prayer At this point the whole picture is beginning to form. There is an understanding of the forces of nature, the various life forms within, the relevancy of time across different systems, the role of light, and the importance of the pineal gland. Now we reach the moment where all this can be put into an applicable schematic on a day to day basis. It is at this junction where all of the recommended procedures in the Quran become applicable because now there is reason, and a goal.
7 The Human Machine Node
Qurandroid
67
The purpose of human development affects all levels of human existence from personal, social, to planetary as well and the universal. This is because everything is inter-connected. The five daily prayers in the Quran may seem dogmatic, without purpose, and a waste of energy. They are also viewed as something that is used to appease an unknown powerful God. This is an apparent misrepresentation into the nature of the five daily prayers and of God also. The Lord of the Worlds is free of needs and wants; therefore all human actions are based on choice. The results of choices made can either be beneficial or destructive. Perhaps by looking closely at the anatomy of a prayer, why there are 5 of them, or why they are relative to the position of the Sun, one might get a better understanding of their function. Everything has a function and reason in the universe. Because human beings are a function and a process of a larger universal system, the word prayer doesn't help to justify the existence of the 5 daily prayers. Therefore it could be of great help if the word prayer was replaced with some other word that better describes the process and anatomy of 7 The Human Machine Node

a prayer. Perhaps words such as reset, or synchronization offer a better understanding of this process and illustrate why it is even important. When something is reset, it is first shutdown, and then restarted. This is followed by some process, or a series of processes by which aspects of

In the entire duration of this reset and
synchronization, machines become faster, error free, and optimized. Any well designed machine must synchronize itself to something in the course of its life cycle, or face becoming obsolete. Human beings are no different. With the 5 daily reset times, human beings, quite similar to machines or computers, shutdown, then restart, and then synchronize. What exactly is being cleaned up during a shutdown? In a machine or computer, excess buildup of electrical charges, cache memory, temporary Internet files, and other accumulation of resources no longer needed must be cleared. The most important reason to reset a computer is to clear and remove unwanted, unused memory and remnant data from previously active tasks. In human beings, it is remnant emotions, stray thoughts, as well as any 7 The Human Machine Node
Qurandroid

biochemical imbalances leftover from daily and aboriginal stresses. The aboriginal stresses are trace materials in both biological and psychological terms that human beings carry from one generation to the next17. An individual that is alive has trace material dating back to the beginning, even before the physical form. Whatever the origin of human beings might be, traces of it are within the electrical, and biological components of humans.
In some
scientific fileds it is called junk DNA, which may just be dormant depending on conditions18. Therefore the process of reset, and synchronization could prove an invaluable key that opens the door to the most unanswered questions. The restart in human beings takes place during a reset (prayer) cycle. Synchronization occurs when the forehead is placed on the floor, or lowered, commonly known as prostration, or bowing down. As mentioned earlier, almost everything in the universe is based on versions of energy, its various emanations, and derivatives. Often times human beings become inundated with unwanted stimuli resulting in energy that may be counter productive. Therefore being flexible with unwanted energy, and diverting it is better than fighting it. This is 17 [Human Hereditary] 18 [Genetics]
7 The Human Machine Node

Zarrar Sheikh
similar to the old saying, “That which does not bend in the wind breaks.� During the course of a day, human beings are bombarded with influences both good and bad. There are stresses from daily living that come in many forms. Stress tends to accumulate in the physical body, and its effects can be mental, cognitive, and psychological19. When the head is lowered, and the forehead is placed on the floor, there is a biochemical change that takes place on several levels 20. The brain receives increased amounts of blood circulation. As a result, there is rejuvenation on many fronts. In this position, the legs are folded, as the knees are on the floor. This pushes the blood out of the lower extremities temporarily, causing it to flow elsewhere and refresh the legs, reducing stress. Because the head is the lowest part of the body and receiving greater amounts of blood, a sense of deep and profound relaxation occurs. During this process of relaxation, the pineal gland is agitated by the forces of gravity in this tilted, and nearly inverted, anti-gravity position.

The location of the pineal gland is also interesting as it is located at the forehead axis, behind the eyes and deep in the brain. It is linearly lined up at the point where the spine terminates in the brain. The pineal gland sits and the junction of human vision, and the spinal energy. This unique location is central in understanding the role of the pineal gland to the entire human organism21. If the pineal gland can connect to the universe, as it is considered the seat of the soul, and concurrently connected to the spine, then the outcome is fairly simple. The pineal gland acts as a buffer, or a conduit allowing nervous system impulses (at the very least) to connect with the universe. If this is the case, then the reverse can be posited as true where the energy of the universe can travel from the pineal gland, to the spine, and throughout the human body for healing purposes. A lot has been written about spinal energy in various mystic traditions including forms of martial arts, yoga, Sufi meditation and others across cultures and eras. The Quran gives high regard to the spine as well by stating that the human sperm is made at the base of the spine. From the eyes, to the pineal gland, to the terminal point of the spine in the brain, it is an approximation of a 90 degree angle.

The bowing down posture of the 5 daily prayers is a complex biomechanical process that causes change in the human body 22. It is a process of resetting the human being, to create balance between the stresses of Earth, and the tranquility of the greater universe. To better the human being, the first step towards augmentation and improvement is to carry out the 5 daily resets.

With adequate synchronizations at the individual level, civilization as a whole greatly benefits. The destructive nuances of uncontrollable emotions, psychological distresses, and the internalization of the industrial world as a whole tend to create many disturbances. Realizing these disturbances is of no use if there is no solution. The solution is to reset the human machine as many times as necessary. Civilization can only then begin to take shape for a better future. The foundation of any systematic human society is only as good as its weakest link, or the weakness in its foundation.

No looting was reported in Japan during this crisis23. Major news outlets, and sources ran stories as to why looting becomes apparent in the United States during times of crisis 24. Human civilizations therefore are almost always prone to the outcome of their own actions, whether good or bad.

Time of course is relevant to where one is, so therefore, cycles of creation are infinite in both going back in time, as well as going into the future. Somewhere in the middle of this time-line is where we find the current Earth situation with the conceptual 2012 looming.

Archaeologists around the world are coming face to face with an increasingly greater understanding of human history.
Around the
world countless sites have been unearthed which show the remains of civilizations25. The time frames of how long ago these societies lived, when they perished, or for what reason are not accurate. For the most part all mainstream archeology dates nearly all of the sites found anywhere in the world within a comfortable range of 5,000 BC to a few hundreds years AD. Human existence is much older as ancient sites continue to be discovered dating back even further into 25 [Ancient Civ. Penguin]

the past26. In reality some of these sites may have perished at the previous conceptual 2012 type scenario. These ancient civilizations, according to what has been found, seem to indicate a much higher technology whose baseline fundamentals maybe different from what is available today27. This difference is evident in the way the ancients built their cities, dwellings and structures with precision geometric designs on scales that rival today's standards. In 1990, the ancient civilizations of Aad, and Thamud, frequently mentioned in the Quran, were unearthed. The entire city and its dwellings were carved out in solid stone with great accuracy in the mountains.
Much like most ancient sites, what is automatically
significant is how the carved rocks give an impression as if they were cut with plasma, or laser devices, considered the proverbial hot knife through butter. Similar rock carvings can be found across different continents such as Asia, and South America, also suggesting a common world culture.

Allah by His Grace Guided the believers to the Truth, concerning that wherein they differed. For Allah guided whom He will to a path that is straight. (10:19 Surah Yunus Jonah) Mankind was but one nation, but differed (later). Had it not been for a word that went forth before from thy Lord, their differences would have been settled between them.
The smoothness and geometry of these large scale structures are perfect, and flawless. These ancients apparently had a more profound technical advantage, or at the very least their basic foundations of technology were different. The Thamud lived in what is now called Madain-Saleh in Saudi Arabia.

Then remember the favors of Allah and do not commit abuse on the earth, spreading corruption.

Each cycle of time brings with it different effects at the planetary level in terms of what is available to humans per era. Think of this as a computer, where one can enable and disable certain programs and applications for various purposes or users. Similarly, with each cycle of time, there are changes in the Earth environment which either enhance, enable, disable, or limit human potentiality. The evidence of this process of enabling and disabling functions can be found in the use and size ratio of the human brain. The human brain currently has disabled about 90% of its capacity and is limited to using and operating on the remaining 10% approximation28. The size of the human brain can be considered a remnant of its full-use capacity. To look at it another way, if the brain were to be analyzed as a piece of hardware, then it can be realized that its full potential is only latent, disabled, turned off, temporarily unavailable or disconnected. Because 28 [Big Brain]

the brain exists, but only works in limited mode, it is a remnant from an era where it may have been in full use. The technological discrepancy between the ancient world and the modern causes one to think that human beings currently might be operating on limited brain usage. The evidence of this is in how the ancients and what they left behind is something modern intelligence still cannot understand. We are left scratching our heads as to why, and how the ancients could build a 200 foot statue, or a decorated fortress carved in stone, or even possess astronomical knowledge that science in the 21st century is now beginning to discover. Today, in order to construct or carve a city in the side of a mountain to the same precision and massive size found in ancient Egypt, Madain-Saleh, and countless other sites worldwide, is a daunting task if not impossible. For all the great advancements made in the last 100 years or so, the ancients remain enigmatic and mysterious from the evidence gathered upon examination of their civilizations left behind. It may never be known if the ancients vanished into oblivion and extinction, or if we are the latest version of a humanoid species that 8 Civilizations Come and Go

has replaced them, or if we are indeed the ancients carrying the same physiology and brain, but operating on less of it currently. In light of all this, perhaps in the post conceptual 2012 period, once it has come and gone, there may be a possibility that the 90% human brain that is currently dormant, may ignite with activity. As a result, perception beyond the 5 senses could be a normal attribute to being human.
Maybe at that time, the knowledge of the ancients may
suddenly be understood. The reason for the creation of a civilization or its demise is not fully known. In the current mode, if the conceptual 2012 is the end-point, then it can be inferred that the goal, or objective of this cycle is mechanical technology and population. Similarly, by looking at previous civilizations from archeology, it can be understood to a certain degree that the goal might have been aboriginal

From archaeological findings, these ancient civilizations did not have a sustainable solution to support 6-billion or more people on Earth. There are several things to consider when understanding the importance of having a very large population. Strangely, the human world today has successfully shown the ability to support 6-billion people. It may not be a perfect system, but it works to support a large human population globally. Theoretically, when the base configuration, or a machine model reaches its required specifications, it then needs to be mass produced. A car, a computer, or a mobile device are just a few examples of theoretical models that need mass production when they are ready. The human base model may have reached this state of parameter perfection in previous eras, of which we as a collective human species have no memory. This is significant, because it may mean that the human species is perfect in terms of required parameters while still leaving room for individual expression. Therefore, perhaps the universe needs large numbers of this perfected batch.

Since machines, computers, and mobile devices come in different colors, sizes, and design schemes, human beings are also produced in diverse configurations. And so currently there are an unprecedented 6 billion plus human beings on Earth, of various designs. This of course is still a temporary and transitory life. Perhaps Earth is just a factory that manufactures sentient life. Therefore human life may just be a test, and ultimately, all must pass through the doorway of death and return back to the greater universe.

8.1 Life Inside the Bowl In the experiential view of human beings, the typical life span of less than 100 years of age may seem like a long time. Similar in how a fruit fly may believe it has lived a long, prosperous life with its own trials, tribulations, migrations, reproduction, aging and death in the span of 30 human days. Since time is elastic, and relative, a span of 100 Earth years may not amount to much outside of Earth. If a diagram was made showing a long horizontal line, then at some point dipping down, then going
8 Civilizations Come and Go
Qurandroid
85
straight, and finally coming back up to the level of the horizontal line, it would look like a bowl. Human life on Earth is only the time spent between the points of entry and exit of this bowl. The entry and exit points of the bowl are similar. When living inside the bowl, all material for life is derived from the components found inside this bowl. When time comes to leave the bowl, matter used for sustaining and creating life remains behind, and the essence of life, the spirit, or the soul are the elements that go back to the horizontal line.
A key point to understand is that life inside the bowl is not necessarily Earth life. It is a matter of dimensions, or density, in which mass exists regardless of life form, planet, or time frame. The bowl is an entire system which includes the Earth. The laws of physics within the bowl are very much different from those outside. Every now and then under the right conditions, some of 8 Civilizations Come and Go
86
Zarrar Sheikh
the laws outside the bowl come in and create what are commonly known as the golden ages of human history.
These are times of
enlightenment. Therefore the ancients in various times may have been under an open window that connected the Earth (in the bowl) with the influential forces from beyond the bowl. The bowl of existence can be considered similar to being stuck in a room with no doors. There is a telephone in this room, but there is no telephone directory. The phone always exists no matter what happens in the room. In order to use the phone one must first acknowledge its existence, and then find a way to use it. Life inside this room is limited, just as life in the bowl of existence and Earth is also within constraints. To move beyond the bowl, or this room, there needs to be a set of tools, permissions and guidelines. There also needs to be a manual. Perhaps this manual is the telephone, which could be considered in the same light as the Quran, since both have always existed in their respective rooms and containers. Whether the analogy of a telephone in a room, or a network interface card equivalent for human beings, the concept is the same. Meaning that all intelligent life must connect to something larger, something 8 Civilizations Come and Go
Qurandroid
87
outside of the bowl of existence. From time to time, just like any utensil, or laboratory experiment, the bowl undergoes a cleaning. It cannot be paralleled to an actual bowl in a kitchen sink cleaned thoroughly with soap and scrubbing pads. If Earth was cleaned with some kind of scrubbing mechanism, then where could the line be drawn, as in what stays in the bowl and what can be considered unwanted material. Unlike the kitchen bowl, the bowl of existence contains life, ecosystems, and vast schematics of order. In such a scenario, the only thing that can be cleaned, or removed, is the subject matter of an experiment while leaving all else as it is. The subject matter in this case, are the various intelligent life, human type, or Jinn which have come and gone. For this reason, the bowl of existence has ruins and ancient remnants of lost civilizations. The various iterations of intelligent life and their remains can be found through out the bowl. Take note that the bowl is very large. Leaving the Earth, going to the moon, or engaging in any kind of space travel as defined by current scientific standards does not take one out of the bowl. There is only 8 Civilizations Come and Go
88
Zarrar Sheikh
one way to leave the bowl, and this entails leaving the physical body behind. The bowl of existence is exactly that, a place of existence for a given time. The options to desire the life within the bowl of existence, or to graduate are at the disposal of the individual, the society, the species, or any and all components of sentience. (6:32 Surah Al-An'am The Cattle) And this world's life is naught but a play and an idle sport and certainly the abode of the hereafter is better for those who guard (against evil); do you not then understand? (42:20 Surah Ash-Shuraa The Consultation) To any that desires the tilth of the Hereafter, We give increase in his tilth, and to any that desires the tilth of this world, We grant somewhat thereof, but he has no share or lot in the Hereafter.
Departure from the bowl of existence is inevitable. What matters then is being able to navigate, or be in a position of security for the journey out of the bowl and into the next mode of existence. From time to time, when the experiment of one creation is finished, a new one, whose forms unrecognized by humans maybe created. Therefore it is possible to consider that intelligent, and sentient life 8 Civilizations Come and Go
Qurandroid
89
may have passed through the Earth in the past, and may continue doing so even after our current mode of life has expired. (56:61 Surah Al-Waqiah The Inevitable) In that We will change your likenesses and produce you in that [form] which you do not know. (56:62 Surah Al-Waqiah The Inevitable) And indeed you have already known the earliest bringing into being; (if) had you (known), you would have been mindful!
This is a natural phenomenon. The experiment does have a control key, or rather the cheat sheet which helps sentient life forms pass the quality control criteria and specifications.
The control key is the
Quran which attempts to guide human beings by advising towards connecting with Allah, God, Lord of the Worlds or whatever other name you wish to use. Any life form whether or not entirely successful in communicating with the Lord of the Worlds may also be rewarded for effort. One need not be a prophet, a sage, or a chosen person as long as there is understanding of the words of the Quran, and some active effort towards correcting one's self, and working towards synchronicity. Race, religion, culture, or language are not an issue in the Quran. The Jinn are not human, their culture and language are unknown, yet some 8 Civilizations Come and Go

follow the Quran, and some don't. In the end, all cries for help are heard by the Lord of The Worlds no matter who the life form is. (37:75 Surah As-Saffat Those Who Set the Ranks) (In the days of old), Noah cried to Us, and We are the best to hear prayer.

8.2 Industrialization: The Changing of Cycles Regardless of the various human origin theories that can be adopted, it is commonly understood that human beings are a modified derivative of primates. Well before primates and human beings, there is the possibility of primordial cycles of change in which the Earth may have been transformed in order to sustain life. Roughly, the chronological time line for the creation of the universe, the Earth, and ultimately mankind is something that requires analysis.
8 Civilizations Come and Go

Historical records show several stages in the development of the Earth. Scientists have concluded an approximate age of the Earth to about 4 billion years or so29. This of course is based on Earth time. It is commonly understood that there were several cycles of construction and destruction between the world of the dinosaurs and the world habitable by humans, leading up to the current day. The plant and animal species before the advent of human beings, as modern science has come to understand, are much different than what is available today, evidence clearly shows this in fossil records. The ancient Earth, inhospitable to human life, may have been reconfigured to allow complex, intelligent organisms to flourish, for a temporary time, perhaps as a convenience to mankind. It is unknown why human beings must be on Earth, and for which specific purpose other than participating in a test to determine the outcome of human choice and action. It is an experiment, and the laboratory appears to be the Earth prepared for such a scenario. (28:60 Surah Al-Qasas The Stories) The (material) things which ye are given are but the conveniences of this life and the glitter thereof; but that which is with Allah is better and more enduring: will ye not then be wise? 29 [Forbideen Aarchaeology]

(36:44 Surah Ya-Sin Ya Sin) Except by way of Mercy from Us, and by way of (world) convenience (to serve them) for a time. (42:36 Ash-Shuraa The Consultation) Whatever ye are given (here) is (but) a convenience of this life: but that which is with Allah is better and more lasting: (it is) for those who believe and put their trust in their Lord:
Once the primary humanoid model was manufactured, developed, or evolved from the local Earth life, as is the common theory of human development, further cycles of humanoid creatures stem forth. Whether it is the Neanderthals, Australopithecus, Cro-Magnon, Java man, the proverbial Sasquatch or any other, the point to note is that there is a very active process of development of the human species leading all the way up the current era. Therefore it is not too far fetched to consider that each human cycle has its own criteria. The human mind, body, and all its spiritual essence allowing it to reach the universe may have been perfected well before the current time of human civilization. As with any developed human prototype, upon perfection, it becomes important to multiply it. This could only have been achieved through the processes leading up to the industrial 8 Civilizations Come and Go
Qurandroid
95
revolution, global economic systems, mass media, and all the other mechanically inclined aspects of the current modern world. This is so because upon realization that life is short, with trials, tribulations, and death inevitable, sentient life may view reproduction as futile. If the ancients were using the full capacity of their brain, therefore understanding time oscillations of creation and destruction, reproduction could have been be viewed as bringing children into an unstable world. The question is of consciousness and sentience where any intelligent life would not procreate into a hostile world. The Earth by it very nature is a hostile world as it has the elements of duality, the conflict of odds and evens, or alternating poles. In order for reproduction to take place on a mass, global scale, human beings required a reduction in intelligence, strength, brain capacity, and lifespan. On a human level, it may have been important to create struggle in any way possible. Struggle allows hidden potentiality of human beings to surface, and becomes part of the evolution process, or rapid development.
Mankind therefore, is created weak, so as to
reproduce, and possibly fill the Earth.

Zarrar Sheikh
(4:28 Surah An-Nisa The Women) Allah doth wish to lighten your (difficulties): For man was created Weak (in flesh)
With the help of mass communications and glamorous media content, the beauty of Earth life in all its various flavors becomes a goal, and reproduction becomes exponential. Though many may argue whether this is right or wrong, in reality, it may just be a function from the Lord of the Worlds. Human beings may not see the God plan in action, but it does not mean there isn't an ordered process always taking place. While this manifests, lost are the ancient wisdom of the stars, the universe, human origins, and all that is metaphysical.
It doesn't
vanish; it simply becomes classified to the notion of mythology and science fiction30. It remains as a seed, which one day under the right conditions may once again bloom. It is part of an infinite cycle of oscillations. The existence of existence itself is not without cause, there is always a reason. In understanding the changing of cycles, it becomes possible to posit the purpose of life as a whole. 30 [Ancient Myths]

And fear Allah and know that you will meet Him. And give good tidings to the believers.
With a large population on Earth, it maybe possible to realize that the next step can now begin. Human beings are able to connect to the universe with adequate discipline, patience, and meditation using the pineal gland. With the population of Earth at approximately 6 billion people, this equates to the possibility of 6 billion pineal glands reaching for this universal connection, and possibly asking the Lord of the Worlds for protection against the advent of a conceptual 2012 event and its aftermath. There is a very important layer to understand here. The cycle of change for a conceptual 2012 maybe unavoidable, as it maybe part of the clockwork function that must take place.
8 Civilizations Come and Go
98
Zarrar Sheikh
There are two scenarios that can take place in the advent of a conceptual 2012 event. One scenario is that of a small human population, which may not be tuned towards connecting with the universe, and therefore susceptible to annihilation in the potential earthquakes, falling of the sky, floods, and other cataclysmic components. The second scenario is that of a large Earth population which has a higher probability for survival because there is always safety in numbers. With specialized industries for every aspect of human life, it further becomes probable to deal with a global crisis and win. This therefore is one of the possible reasons for the justification of a large Earth population. As a result we enter the next phase of evolution, development, iteration, or version. Whatever concept or word that may be used, the net effects and results are the same, which means nothing more than change. (14:48 Surah Ibrahim Abrahim) One day the earth will be changed to a different earth, and so will be the heavens, and (men) will be marshalled forth, before Allah, the One, the Irresistible; 8 Civilizations Come and Go

Human development takes place in steps, and stages which may take long periods of time. With the closure of one phase of development, another one begins. Change is built into the way things work, it is the responsibility of intelligent life to understand this, and work with change rather than deny it, or become fearful and disoriented against it. Whether or not something of this effect takes place in the year 2012, a few years after or before, or hundreds of years into the future is not clear. The evidence here suggests some great change in stages and cycles. (71:14 Surah Nuh Noah) While He has created you in stages? (84:19 Surah Al-Inshiqaq The Sundering) You shall certainly travel from stage to stage (in this life and in the Hereafter).

9 Transmissions: Just Another Quran Despite the common conception that the Quran is directly associated with an ethnicity, race, group or religion, this understanding is however incorrect. The Quran is part of the legacy of ancient remnant knowledge, equal and or greater than any artifact that has ever been discovered, unearthed, recorded, or in existence. The Quran is not limited to any one era, culture, species, or nation. It also does not suggest particular parameters for outward expressions or
9 Transmissions: Just Another Quran
Qurandroid
101
appearances on any level whether individual, societal, or planetary. The knowledge in the Quran is geared to activate or initiate the development of any life form capable of sentience.
The base
configuration of such life forms need not be from what is known as Earth primates. This is because the possibility of life and sentient life can take place anywhere. The Jinn are a perfect example of sentient life. The Jinn are not derived from primates, and are not human. The Quran is equally applicable to the Jinn as it is applicable to human affairs. The Quran in the current version therefore serves any life form that wishes to evolve, develop, and reach the next level of augmentation. If both Jinn and men follow the Quran, then it is possible to postulate that there may be other life forms beyond this that also follow the Quran in a different language, or mode of communication.
In
considering such an abstract concept about other forms of life in view of current scientific standards, the role of language or an ethnic religion would be also incorrect. The Quran serves all those who desire its service. The core source of the Quran are a set of realities and guidelines that are universal, therefore it cannot enforce parameters that are 9 Transmissions: Just Another Quran
102
Zarrar Sheikh
incompatible with a local life form of any given system. The central theme of the Quran is therefore to enhance intelligence, and sentience in those who choose or ask for guidance. (1:5 Surah Al-Fatihah The Opening) It is You we worship and You we ask for help. (1:6 Surah Al-Fatihah The Opening) Guide us to the straight path (Surah 1:7 Surah Al-Fatihah The Opening) The path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor, not of those who have evoked [Your] anger or of those who are astray.
The content of the Quran should not be considered a set of ritual activities. This is because there is an active process in the context of the Quran that helps unfold intelligence. It does not provide a religion as the word is commonly understood. It provides a knowledge base that when applied, or understood yields greater understanding of the universe. It is more like a seed pack, where the missing element is water. Instead of water, the activator is sentience and the option of an intelligent being choosing to move forward. Therefore the information 9 Transmissions: Just Another Quran
Qurandroid
103
in the Quran is part of a core set of universal transmissions that are always being broadcast from the core. The core known by many names including the cosmos, the proverbial center of the galaxy, the Lord of the Worlds also known as God, Allah and other names31. As well as simply, the great Unknown. From time to time those who have chosen to listen to this apparent radio broadcast from the universe were always either regarded in high esteem, or exiled into oblivion. This depends on the dominant species, and its inclination. Whether there are human beings in existence or not, the transmission remains constant. Because there is a duality in the universe, as in the co-existence of opposite forces, often times ancient records have shown this in various symbols depicting conflict. Just as no law of nature, or physics is absent from oscillations, it would be foolish to assume that the universe is linear, and has only good things or only one inclination. The universe contains both a dark side, and a light side, good and bad, odds and evens, as well as negative and positive, or any other concept of opposing forces. 31 [Names of God]

Zarrar Sheikh
(89:3 Surah Fajr The Dawn) And (by) the Even and the Odd
Both forces of the duality stream are always in competition to get the attention of sentient life. It is the responsibility of the individual to protect themselves from an imbalance in the stream.
The
circumstances of either good or bad are also carried out by the individual through choice. The best course of action is to seek protection in the event a wrong or ill decision has been made by life forms. Without protection, the forces behind the ill decision will continue to attempt overpowering an individual in hopes to beget more chaos. (40:55 Surah Ghafir The Believer) Therefore be patient; surely the promise of Allah is true; and ask protection for your fault and sing the praise of your Lord in the evening and the morning.
Therefore it is important to maintain emotional, psychological, physical and spiritual balance. Any form of extremism will result in an imbalanced scenario where one then becomes susceptible to influences that may not be entirely desirable.
9 Transmissions: Just Another Quran
Qurandroid
105
The Quran therefore highlights this duality, and complexities of the forces of the universe that affect human beings, and then provides a solution on how to exist without being pulled into them. Therefore the central theme of the Quran focuses very heavily on the synchronization (also known as worship, prayer, remembrance, and reverence) with the Lord of the Worlds as protection from going astray, or being lured into an imbalance. In this view, the universality of the Quran is not even Earth centric, and therefore is further from being boxed into any one population, race, language, or any other classification system.
And certainly
extremism of any kind is warned against, and not the ideology of the transmissions of the Quran.

9.1 Arabic Quran The source of the Quran stems from somewhere beyond the realm and understanding of human beings. Since it is ever present, it is beyond any human made concept. Regardless of language or the type of receiving life form, this transmission continues. The current, or rather the latest transmission happens to be in Arabic, and was downloaded and written approximately 1,400 years ago (common era). (42:7 Surah Ash-Shuara The Consultation) Thus have We sent by inspiration to thee an Arabic Qur'an: that thou mayest warn the Mother of Cities and all around her,- and warn (them) of the Day of 9 Transmissions: Just Another Quran

With this, it becomes apparent that what is called the Quran spans the ages both backwards and possibly into the future as well. Whether the current humanoid population on Earth mutates, lives on or becomes extinct, the transmission from the core will continue. In any zero world scenario (as in human beings starting everything all over again), the transmission will always be available for a new set of people to write, or record. Currently, human beings have, with great ignorance, reduced the Quran to an ethnic-centric phenomenon and covered this universal base of knowledge under a shroud. The universe does not need human beings to understand its message. Those that attempt to understand and acquire knowledge from the Quran will benefit greatly.
It is a matter of choice, there is no
compulsion, just choice. Just as in the past, Abraham was taught the knowledge of the stars, this 9 Transmissions: Just Another Quran

same opportunity is open to all who choose to inquire. The mode of communication between life and the Lord of the Worlds comes through inspiration, whether human, animal or insect. This process of inspiration is the central part of any living entity. (12:102 Surah Yusuf Joseph) Such is one of the stories of what happened unseen, which We reveal by inspiration unto thee; nor wast thou (present) with them then when they concerted their plans together in the process of weaving their plots. (16:68 An-Nahl The Bee) And your Lord inspired to the bee, "Take for yourself among the mountains, houses, and among the trees and [in] that which they construct. (17:86 Surah Al-Isra The Night Journey) If it were Our Will, We could take away that which We have sent thee by inspiration: then wouldst thou find none to plead thy affair in that matter as against Us,(21:79 Surah Al-Anbya The Prophets) To Solomon We inspired the (right) understanding of the matter: to each (of them) We gave Judgment and Knowledge; it was Our power that made the hills and the birds celebrate Our praises, with David: it was We Who did (all these things).
With the communications aspect in place, it is probable for any life form to be able to evolve based on the transmission from the universe. 9 Transmissions: Just Another Quran

Therefore going back to the universality of the latest transmission called the Quran and its current iteration in the Arabic language, it is important to seek the source of all this no matter the life form, time, or place. The source of all things therefore is the unnamed force that is everywhere, omnipotent, omnipresent and ever aware, known by many names including the Lord of the Worlds. Sometimes it take a major event to shake the human conscious into thinking and evolving. The precipice is the moment of evolution.

The Japan earthquake and tsunami of March 2011 is perhaps a wake up call that the Earth is indeed changing.

Some of the depictions in the Quran illustrate with clarity and visual descriptions of what may come about. On the notes of the Quran being independent of time, or era, it is not clear whether these Earth changes mentioned are recordings of an event from the distant past or warnings of an impending natural cycle of oscillations, or both. Being that time (both local human time, and universal) tends to be cyclical, it can be inferred that these Surah may be referring to the

reality of the way natural cycles take place infinitely. Being human it may be impossible to know for sure what all this means, as there is no way to ascertain the truth or validity of the Quran in terms of scientific quantification. However, having said that, there is also a great possibility that the current scientific model of knowledge is not mature enough to grasp, understand, or realize what exactly is in the Quran, or why. To this extent it may be considered that the current mode of scientific tools for analysis are in their infancy. Perhaps the words of the Quran are well ahead of their time when describing the falling, splitting, coming apart of the heavens, or sky and all realities pertaining to Earth human beings.

(82:3 Surah AL-Infitar The Cleaving) When the Oceans are suffered to burst forth;
Reasons are not given for the sky becoming red, the blast from the sky, or the swelling of the oceans. These three scenarios, however, are very similar in nature to a solar flare approaching Earth, an earthquake and tsunami, as well as some combination of a nuclear nightmare. If one were to connect the dots between the March 2011 Japan earthquake and the descriptions in the Quran, there are certainly similarities. There is nothing for fear in the event such a scene becomes materialized.
If preparations are made on the spiritual level in
synchronicity with the Lord of the Worlds over extended periods of time, help is always near in both prevention and reaction.

10.1 No Luggage: Fear of Death and the Transitory World Perhaps one of the most feared concepts for human beings is the uncertainty of the proverbial death. This is proverbial because death is only the expiration of the physical phenomenon. The physical body must at some point end, remain on Earth and return back to the local elements. Just like thoughts and inspirations, which are outside the physical body, the non-physical parts of humans like
10 The Precipice: Smoked Sky and Earth Changes 2012
Qurandroid
115
the soul and spirit live forever. In reference to the concept of time being infinite going backwards or into the future, human life currently is somewhere in the middle and in the physical form. Death is at times the suspension, and other times is the expiration and complete cease of the human body. Accordingly, from this standpoint, the souls of human beings are taken at death as well as during sleep. One of the most overlooked notes in the Quran is of the soul being taken back to its origins during sleep. (29:57 Surah Al-Ankabut The Spider) Every soul will taste death. Then to Us will you be returned. (39:42 Surah Az-Zumar The Troops) It is Allah that takes the souls (of men) at death; and those that die not (He takes) during their sleep: those on whom He has passed the decree of death, He keeps back (from returning to life), but the rest He sends (to their bodies) for a term appointed verily in this are Signs for those who reflect.
There is no need to fear death. This world is the equivalent of a waiting area, where upon the arrival of a time, this journey will end, and another one will begin. This world and life, no matter how it is expressed, is without a doubt temporary.
10 The Precipice: Smoked Sky and Earth Changes 2012
116
Zarrar Sheikh
During this temporary life, it is of extreme importance that human actions do not create chaos, violence, rebellions or misery. This is because the residual damage from these negative actions are not compatible with the existence after death. These are also addictive behaviors, which should be corrected before passing on. On the other side of death, desiring habits from the physical existence would end up being unfulfilled, and create pain, and suffering. Therefore leaving physical, emotional, mental and addictive luggage on Earth is important. Extremism, even to the slightest imbalance of any kind therefore is not part of the Quran. Nothing from the physical world can be transported out of this temporary and transitory world. All actions, efforts and resulting civilizations are built and maintained for the next of kin, and those that are left behind as one moves forward out of this transitory life. With that thought in mind, it is the responsibility and effort of all sentient life forms to create a better world with less chaos and misery. Misery, chaos, and destruction are also the detrimental effects left behind for descending generations.
10 The Precipice: Smoked Sky and Earth Changes 2012
Qurandroid
117
Chaos, conflict and violence are created by those with less patience, a weak mindset, selfish inclinations and of course the false belief that this transitory life is somehow permanent. It is the equivalent of waiting for a delayed train on a platform where after some time one forgets, and simply makes the platform home. Earth life is similar to this platform, but it does not mean taxes shouldn't be paid, or components of civilization should be neglected. Systems of government, law and order are important because they ensure a safe waiting for you and your descending generations. An orderly civilization allows human development and advancement. The modern world and technology, whether inferior to the ancients, or just different, allows expression, and the unlocking of latent human potential to surface because of industrialization. For example, this allows distributing the burdens of growing your own food, finding your own water, and cutting your own hair. Therefore allowing one to grow internally. A system of civilization is necessary and must be protected from the onslaught of the conceptual 2012. Therefore, it is with great urgency, that human beings control anger, violence, rebellions, and look within for the solution. This is because the solution is literally within every human being. Once human beings 10 The Precipice: Smoked Sky and Earth Changes 2012

have learned to understand the power of calm, there is no turning back to violence, anger, hate or any of the other ills that plague human civilization. This is the test, that even at the greatest onslaught of danger, fear, and colossal chaos such as during the conceptual 2012 event, those that remain calm stand a greater probability in overcoming adversity. During a confrontation with a bear, pretending to be dead wards off the attack. In Kung Fu, it is during the calm when Chi flows best33. (8:11 Surah Al-Anfal The Spoils of War) Remember He covered you with a sort of drowsiness, to give you calm as from Himself, and he caused rain to descend on you from heaven, to clean you therewith, to remove from you the stain of Satan, to strengthen your hearts, and to plant your feet firmly therewith. (48:4 Surah Al-Fath The Victory) It is He Who sent down tranquility into the hearts of the Believers, that they may add faith to their faith;for to Allah belong the Forces of the heavens and the earth; and Allah is Full of Knowledge and Wisdom;-
Time may be running out, humanity must learn to seek help from the Lord of the Worlds while civilization is still intact. Once the process leading to the conceptual 2012 has begun, it maybe too late. 33 [Kung Fu]

10.2 Surviving the Threat of a Conceptual 2012 Perhaps the best course of action to take in order to survive is to prepare well in advance. Waiting for the last moment, or when it becomes apparent that change is happening is not advisable. Advance preparation is always a great solution. One of the things to consider is keeping extra supplies ready in a bag, or stored in your vehicle.
10 The Precipice: Smoked Sky and Earth Changes 2012
Qurandroid
121
Should the moment arise, and should it become necessary to make a move, having all the essential things in place and ready to go is very important. Survival gear, clothing, hygiene as well as all the essentials are a critical measure to remaining prepared. The event in question may present itself as a major change in everything that is now considered normal. Most importantly, advance preparation is not only the best route, but perhaps the only route. The second layer of being prepared is to become synchronized with the processes that are in motion. As has been shown, these processes are cyclical and have been in place since beyond the depths of the past. Being cyclical they present an opportunity towards enlightenment, connecting to the universe, and human development. It is always times of crisis, or in this case potential crisis when the best of human potentiality shows up. It is not without reason that necessity is thought to be the mother of invention, or that which doesn't break a person makes one stronger. Similarly, at these junctions of time and change, there is great opportunity to hone and fine tune the mystical elements that all human beings are naturally endowed with.
10 The Precipice: Smoked Sky and Earth Changes 2012

Zarrar Sheikh
In ancient times, if the great mystics of the world were able to walk on water, or accomplish great feats, then perhaps it can be considered that their great mystic development may have been triggered by an impending cataclysm. Perhaps sentient beings only evolve, augment, or develop innovation at the precipice. For this reason, cycles of Earth changes may really be operators of change forcing humans to adapt, survive by any means possible. The prophet Noah is remembered for building the Ark. Without the impending doom of the Great Flood, there might not have been an Ark and Noah may not have had any significance in human history. The conditions that were ripe upon the ancients in which their inner abilities were forced to became realized are somewhat of the same notion with the conceptual 2012 in our time. Perhaps it is struggle that creates great results and propels mankind to seek and utilize all its various endowments which are given as gifts from the Lord of the Worlds. Therefore, looking through the niche (Surah 24:35) within ourselves, human beings will find the unique wonders of the unseen universe as 10 The Precipice: Smoked Sky and Earth Changes 2012
Qurandroid
123
mentioned in the Quran. The role of the unseen is quite clear. Since humans are sentient, capable of choice, the unseen must respond to pleas for help. It is always a matter of choice. Should humanity choose to be guided and ask for a better world and protection during these Earth changes, only then can there be any way out of the current dilemma of possible human extinction. The pen maybe mightier than the sword. The mind however is more powerful than the highest tsunami, the most violent earthquake, or the most devastating consequences of human action. If Moses was able to part the Red Sea, then it may be wise to learn that process. Behind the process of Moses was the ever present force of God, Allah, the Lord of the Worlds or referenced by any method one chooses. In order to survive the conceptual 2012 event, mankind must connect to the Lord of the Worlds in the frequency of a humbled lowly spirit. This is because the frequencies of anger, violence, hate and chaos maybe compatible with malevolent forces and not the benevolence of the Lord of the Worlds. As enigmatic as it may sound, the calm is more powerful than the storm. Perhaps Mr. Gandhi was not wrong in his push towards non-violence. 10 The Precipice: Smoked Sky and Earth Changes 2012

10.3 Restart: Zero World Day One At the onslaught of the conceptual 2012 event, much would be in disdain. Anything that can be currently taken as being permanent, secure, familiar, and safe will have been reduced to zero. There are several scenarios that take shape at this moment. In the event of a possible physical pole shift, the geography of Earth would be very different. The current arctic regions may shift towards warmer locations creating an eventual rise in sea levels hundreds of

feet from current levels. Most coastal populations would be inundated with water. Consequently, with the displacement of agricultural areas into unknown and new weather patterns, crop failure would almost be imminent34. Food growth, storage, and transportation at this point could severely be hampered.
Shopping malls, supermarkets and
grocery stores also face turmoil and dysfunction.

succumbing to compromise. If there are gas lines, electrical grids, sewage and communications pipelines underground, then all these components face the propensity to become offset into disarray, and failure. In the Japan earthquake and tsunami of March 2011, the Japanese landmass moved approximately 2.5 meters (8 feet). Depending on the topography and its stability in resistance to land mass movement dictates how severe the damage could be.
34 [Plate Tectonics, Condie]
10 The Precipice: Smoked Sky and Earth Changes 2012
126
Zarrar Sheikh
More importantly, determining how far below the ground lies the bedrock is critical to calculating land stability. With rising sea levels in the Zero World Day One scenario, the totality of oceanic water pressure has the power to create horizontal landslides, sink holes, and land erosion. Much turmoil presents itself on both the ground and below where plate tectonics play out a drama unfolding. In the same nature as the Japan event of March 2011, the conceptual 2012 event may present itself as a widespread and unprecedented phenomenon. This is because in Zero World Day One, that moment of time when things as we know have fallen apart, there is no going back. Toasters, TVs, hygiene, hot water, or running water among thousands of other modern elements may no longer be present. The world at this point is forced to start again. The only plausible answer to crisis management is advanced preparedness in all physical aspects, as well as the psychological, emotional, mental, and spiritual synchronicity. The importance of being mentally balanced is perhaps the most critical aspect in the Zero World Day One scenario as well as before such an event. In being prepared, the human connection to the Lord of the Worlds is 10 The Precipice: Smoked Sky and Earth Changes 2012
Qurandroid
127
profoundly important as the sustainable components of restarting civilization also originate from this. Just like the concept of the Phoenix rising out of the ashes of chaos and destruction, mankind is at that the crossroads of change during the conceptual 2012 event. Whether the Zero World Day One aspect can be prevented or not is a matter of human choice. The moment human beings understand the significance of bowing down, with foreheads on the floor, in humble connection, or communication with the universe and asking for protection, only then can there be any real preparedness from the threat of the conceptual 2012 event.

10.4 Halo, Sacred Fire: The Appearance of Metaphysics With an active connection to the Lord of the Worlds, the forces of nature, as well as all that is in totality, the results are often seen as magic, metaphysical improbabilities, and absolutely amazing. During a peaceful session of meditation, and synchronization (commonly known as a prayer) it is God who is close, provides protection, and
10 The Precipice: Smoked Sky and Earth Changes 2012
Qurandroid
129
answers calls of the helpless, the feeble, the forgotten, the lost, the worried, the troubled, the lonely and the dire. It is through this process that one is never alone no matter if a tsunami, earthquake or nuclear fallout materialize. This connection is within every sentient being, and is the main aspect that separates human beings from other life forms such as animals. Upon examination of ancient relics, illustrations and paintings from various cultures, there is one aspect common to all. The ancients may not have been advanced in technology that parallels the 21st century, but it does not mean they were inferior. Their technology may have been on a completely different foundation and orientation. Regardless, the commonality between nearly all ancient forms of communications is the depiction of a halo, a glow, or a fire of sorts around the head of someone significant. Perhaps in the ancient world people were able to perceive using the fullest brain function and were therefore able to detect the glowing effect of the pineal gland. This glowing halo, or smokeless fire as it seen in Arab and Middle Eastern depictions, is the illustration of the activated, and turned on pineal gland.
10 The Precipice: Smoked Sky and Earth Changes 2012
130
Zarrar Sheikh
The pineal gland is no different from any other activated machine component.
This gland is just like any modern technology that
displays a status light whether stationary or blinking to show that the network connection is enabled and running, such as mobile devices. In human beings this glowing network connection is apparent in the form of many ancient and varying illuminations around the head of a connected person. Caves in Afghanistan when it was known as Khorasan have oil paintings dating back 6,000-50,000 years or more depicting human beings with halos35. The prophet Muhammad has been shown in paintings having a large illumination similar to a fire-like depiction surrounding his head. The face of prophet Muhammad was originally sketched and represented in many illustrations. It was later scratched out from these paintings in order to prevent possible worship of the prophet. Nearly every culture capable of writing, recording, sculpting, or painting has some variation to show the existence of the pineal gland and its connection to the ever present power known as the Lord of the 35 [Afghan Paintings Reuters]
10 The Precipice: Smoked Sky and Earth Changes 2012
Qurandroid
131
Worlds. Even cultures that are not currently associated with monotheistic origins have shown similar representations. Anytime there is a statue with an emphasis of a sun behind the head, or a dot, jewel, or ornament on the forehead, it is showing an enabled pineal gland connection. The story is very similar no matter which time period, culture or people are analyzed. Most seem to accept, and represent the existence of the pineal gland and its linking connection to the higher, or rather highest power in all of existence. The Quran is not a painting, or a sculpture, therefore the words in it must describe everything that is characteristic of painted and sculpted representations of pineal gland scenarios. In Surah Light (24:35), as mentioned previously, is the description of the pineal gland. To the onlooker, observing an individual connected to the Lord of the Worlds may seem fantastic, wonderful, and surprising. This is the world of metaphysics, where the laws of physics as we understand them do not apply.

(7:117 Surah Al-araf The Heights) We put it into Moses's mind by inspiration: "Throw (now) thy rod":and behold! it swallows up straight away all the falsehoods which they fake! (26:63 Surah Ash-Shuara The Poets) Then We told Moses by inspiration: "Strike the sea with thy rod." So it divided, and each separate part became like the huge, firm mass of a mountain.
The intervention from the Lord of the Worlds is without measure, as well as without precedence in human affairs. It is the process of invoking the one true God, the central source of all things in the physical plane, as well as any other plane, that protects, guides, and ensures a smooth evolution and developmental cycle of individuals. As long as there is a connection enabled and running, the Lord of the Worlds is ever present. In order to sharpen the connection, and fine tune this innate human ability to use the pineal gland, there are ways and methods that must be carried out and maintained on a regular basis.
Connecting to the Lord of the Worlds is also the highest
milestone achievable by sentient life forms at this stage of existence, whether man or Jinn. In the drama of the conceptual 2012 event, it is the enabled and connected pineal gland that may provide the ultimate answer on how 10 The Precipice: Smoked Sky and Earth Changes 2012

to survive the flood waters, the potential pole shifts, the earthquakes, as well the unfolding drama similar to the Japanese tsunami of March 2011. Only with a lowly spirit and a humbled attitude can the Lord of the Worlds respond to the call of mankind in crisis. Despite the common understanding that God is far removed from human affairs, the premise in the Quran is quite different. The Lord of the Worlds is very close to human beings. The essence of the spirit of the Lord of the Worlds is also what makes up the human body. Therefore human beings are intertwined with the forces of nature. (32:9 Surah Sajdah The Prostration) But He fashioned him in due proportion, and breathed into him something of His spirit. And He gave you (the faculties of) hearing and sight and feeling (and understanding): little thanks do ye give! (50:16 Surah Qaf The Letter Qaf) It was We Who created man, and We know what dark suggestions his soul makes to him: for We are nearer to him than (his) jugular vein. (66:12 Surah Tahrim The Prohibition) And Mary, daughter of 'Imran, whose body was chaste, therefore We breathed therein something of Our Spirit. And she put faith in the words of her Lord 10 The Precipice: Smoked Sky and Earth Changes 2012

and His scriptures, and was of the obedient.
The Spirit that is within human beings is the active flow and life providing cable network that all life depends on.
Without doubt,
human beings are far from ordinary, as they posses the capacity for great potential. The complicated process of creating human beings and making sure the human creature understands itself could at times be challenging. Most people go through life with a fixed mindset and tend to think within the box. The goal here is not to change minds, or get converts into a belief system. The goal is simply to discover the depths of the Quran for all to apply. The Quran is perhaps one of the most readily available texts in the world and yet the material contained in it is as mysterious as the pitch black night. To overcome this, it is important to read the Quran from one end to the other comfortably, without pretense or expectation. What comes out will be the process of unlocking, unfolding and augmenting the inner intelligence of all sentient life including human beings. All this may sound like science fiction. This would not be surprising because the concepts of relative time, space travel, distant planets, and
10 The Precipice: Smoked Sky and Earth Changes 2012
Qurandroid
135
non-human sentient beings are just some of the elements borrowed form the long lineage of the Quran traditions. The transmission of the Quran never ceases from the depths of the Lord of the Worlds. It is human beings, or any other sentient life that periodically record these transmissions. The human view of metaphysics is similar to the view marine life has of breathing air. Both, metaphysics and marine life breathing air, are concepts that exist outside their relative enclosures perceived by life forms dwelling within some parameter, or constraint.
Once a
parameter, or constraint, like a box is opened or lifted it may appear as magic to those within the box. To think outside the proverbial box is perhaps to wander into uncharted territory of the unknown. With the help of the Quran, the great territory of the unknown has a road map, a guide, as well as a GPS. Navigation through the development of human intellect is no small undertaking, but with the watchful two-way link with the Lord of the Worlds even the largest tasks are minute. (3:160 Surah Al-Imran The Family of Imran) If Allah helps you, none can overcome you: If He forsakes you, who is there, after that, that can help you? in Allah, then, Let believers put their trust.

Through the oscillating texts in the Quran which shift between contextual poles, the result is thought provoking, and agitation of human intellect, therefore opening mental pathways into the perceived unknown, which in reality is a latent, and remnant memory of the universe. The end result is the possible understanding of the greatest mysteries of human existence. Mankind desires the physical proof and visibility in signs, or metaphysical events to take place in order to understand and verify the existence of the Lord of the Worlds. The visible signs had taken place in the past. (17:59 Surah Al-Isra The Night Journey) And nothing has prevented Us from sending signs except that the former peoples denied them. And We gave Thamud the she-camel as a visible sign, but they wronged her. And We send not the signs except as a warning.
Perhaps in the likelihood of an Earth changing event such as the conceptual 2012, the forces that control metaphysical signs may decide that mankind is ready to witness the wonderment of the Lord of the 10 The Precipice: Smoked Sky and Earth Changes 2012

Therefore it maybe possible to witness the signs and
metaphysical visual effects once more.

10.5 The Great Mystery and the Mechanical Universe It all begins and ends with physics, and the metaphysics. This is because everything in the human world revolves around the limited perception of physics based on mechanical machines. This is counter productive since there is more in the unseen universe than there is in the mechanical universe. When the two universes come into contact, what is displayed is stunning, and often classified as metaphysics. There are countless entries in the Quran that show events of great
10 The Precipice: Smoked Sky and Earth Changes 2012
Qurandroid
139
wonder, and awe, which are also thought provoking. The mystery of why man is here, where man came from, where is man going, and since the end point of human life is death, then why even bother with human development. This is the greatest mystery by far even though many questions have been answered in the Quran. The Quran provides a beginning, middle, and an end explanation of human life from both an individual standpoint and a planetary one. It also provides a glimpse of what awaits beyond the physical life of this Earth. Some of these glimpses come in many shapes and sizes across various cultures and times.
In this section we'll look at the
unexplained and absolutely mystical elements contained within the Quran. (15:16 Surah Al-Hijr The Rocky Tract) It is We Who have set out the zodiacal signs in the heavens, and made them fair-seeming to (all) beholders; (53:13 Surah An-Najm The Star) And indeed he (Muhammad SAW) saw him [Jibrael (Gabriel)] at a second descent (i.e. another time). (81:23 Surah At-Takwir The Overthrowing) And without doubt he saw him in the clear horizon.
The mystical aspects in the Quran are completely opposite of Earth 10 The Precipice: Smoked Sky and Earth Changes 2012
140
Zarrar Sheikh
existence and yet their influence on the Earth is imminent. It is a glimpse of the worlds, dimensions, and forces that are in the unseen universe. This is important because with the guarantee of death at some point, Earth existence becomes a transitory life, and rather temporary. Therefore the role of the mystic elements in the Quran is critical to human development which begins even before the womb, and continues well after the expiration of the human body. To pretend that aging, and death do not occur is foolish. The objective is not to become morbidly engrossed with the concept of death, only that it is no more than the shedding of a cloth. It is not the end of all possible things, it is just a transition. The mystical elements of the Quran therefore reduce the fear of death by highlighting the existence of the unseen universe. Without any reference to elements of a mystical nature, human life becomes pointless. Fortunately it is not pointless since there is a destination, and currently mankind is somewhere in the middle to this journey. The mystic index (located at end of book) attempts to answer many profound questions related to human origins, purpose, this transitory 10 The Precipice: Smoked Sky and Earth Changes 2012
Qurandroid
141
life, and the after life in addition to many other topics rarely brought to light, and long forgotten through the ages. The Quran is a guide, however over the eras gone by, this guide now needs a road map, or a guide of its own. The creation of a guide for the Quran has gone out of control. The simple message of the Quran has been overshadowed by countless volumes of commentaries, analytical material, opinion, as well as too much information. These countless man made commentaries on the Quran, though well intended in their inception, have now become a barrier between man and Quran. Without creating more volumes of text, the simplest approach for delving into the Quran is by using an index. It is aimed to give a point of entry into the Quran by provoking thought, curiosity and help discover that no matter what the outcome of human life, there is a greater dimension beyond Earth. That the fear of the conceptual 2012, or any other major change that affects life as we have come to know it, is nothing to fear. Also that any change is a sign of furthering human development, since it is only at the precipice when ingenuity, new ideas, and evolution take stance. The mystic index is in the appendix at the end of this book.

11 Putting it All Together: The 3 Components Being that humans are endowed with intelligence, free will, as well as the ability to change their lives, this section attempts to put it all together on the journey to the Lord of the Worlds. The key milestones in this personal development are basically in three components. These are components, like steps, or product assembly instructions rather than the destination as inaccurately assumed in the 21st century.
11 Putting it All Together: The 3 Components
Qurandroid
143
The first component deals with the relationship and importance of the physical body as a prerequisite to the end goal of synchronizing with God, Allah, the Lord of the Worlds or referenced by any other name you choose. There are several steps that need to be taken in order to make the physical body compatible with the ability to connect with the Lord of the World. The goal is being able to ask for help in times of crisis such as the Japan tsunami of March 2011, or the conceptual 2012 event. The second component is to understand and deal with the fluctuations of psychology, mental focus, and emotional balance. Any extreme or imbalance will produce consequential outcomes. The objective is to follow the middle way, which is void of any extremes. The basis for this rests upon the ability of any emotion, thought process, or mental capacity to sustain itself with minimal oscillations. Therefore an extreme giddy, euphoric, or extremely sad or miserable state of mind should be avoided, as balance should be sought. The biochemical elements in the human body are responsible for most fluctuations or extreme behavior. For example, notice how well your mental focus operates after eating a large steak, followed by a cold 11 Putting it All Together: The 3 Components

carbonated soda, while experiencing prolonged constipation. It may seem funny, but the reality is that a clean body functions much better across many different levels. The third component comes into play when the body as well as the emotional, psychological, and mental aspects have been balanced, fine tuned and are no longer susceptible to whims, addictions, or detrimental habits.
On this level, it is the individual who is
synchronized with God, Allah, the Lord of the Worlds, or any other name you may want to use. When you get there, you will know. The best way to know when you get there is to keep a log of your body, as well as your emotions and psychological dynamics changing as you progress. The end goal is the neutralization of addictive, impulsive, or imbalanced behavior.
The middle way is the goal of this self
transformation with the help of the Quran. (17:110 Al-Isra The Night Journey) Say: "Call upon Allah, or call upon Rahman: by whatever name ye call upon Him, (it is well): for to Him belong the Most Beautiful Names. Neither speak thy Prayer aloud, nor speak it in a low tone, but seek a middle course between." 11 Putting it All Together: The 3 Components

11.1 Component 1: Human Body Modification The objective of clearing up unwanted, excess, and detrimental material from the body is critical as waste material does nothing more than interfere, and pollute the bloodstream, which effects the mind, brain, and emotions. The human body is dynamic and will adapt to its environment. The body is best flushed by natural methods, processes, elements and
11 Putting it All Together: The 3 Components
Qurandroid
147
aspects. Of the natural ways, the pinnacle of all possibilities is water36. The human body is at different biochemical states at different times of the day. In the morning it has the highest levels of residual toxins which need to be removed. Since we're following the Quran, we also need to synchronize (pray) with the Lord of the Worlds before sunrise. The best synchronicity is achieved with an alert, clean, and refreshed body. This has profoundly positive effects on the entire day that has not yet dawned. Therefore waking up two hours before sunrise is highly advisable. First, visit the toilet and discharge any waste fluids that are pending. Next, a minimum of at least a half gallon of water (1.89 liters) should be consumed in the span of no more than 20-30 minutes. The high quantity of water accelerates the flushing process by being rapidly absorbed by the body, and then rapidly influencing both liquid and solid waste towards expulsion. Near the end of the 30 minute period, you may feel the urgency to revisit the toilet as this is the desired objective. The body has now 36 [Water Detox]

flushed out much harmful, poisonous, and detrimental material. Next step is some form of physical energy building. Going to the gym is not the topic since in the event of a conceptual 2012 event, an exercise facility may no longer be available. A balance of strength and cardiovascular training is very important in order to progress forward. Pushups, sit-ups, squats, running or any other method is suitable as long there is ample resistance. If it is too easy then the process of accumulating and building of energy becomes compromised. After repeated, disciplined and rigorous exercise, the building up of energy becomes a strong barrier against negative and extreme influences which affect human behavior.
Therefore this step of
physical fitness is emphasized greatly. Once exercise has finished, wash your self, shower, bathe or by whatever means available in preparation to synchronize, pray, meditate, and become one with the Lord of the Worlds. The first prayer (synchronization) of the day is Fajr which takes place in the approximation of time before sunrise. Though time devices maybe used to calculate the exact time of Fajr, 11 Putting it All Together: The 3 Components

this is not necessary as the break of dawn is indicator enough. (50:39 Surah Al-Qaf The Letter Qaf) Bear, then, with patience, all that they say, and celebrate the praises of thy Lord, before the rising of the sun and before (its) setting.
After the morning synchronization, eat good clean foods with as little damaging elements as possible. Emphasize slightly more on protein foods to replenish and rebuild the body while the meal should also be a balance of nutrition. For your own curiosity, experiment with eating a cake, a tart, or something tasty with little protein or nutritional value for breakfast and see how that goes. Keep a journal of your findings as this will illustrate progress. The objective is to learn how to listen to your body, and fine tune it in order to deal with potential realities such as those of the conceptual 2012, as well as those that have already happened like the Japan tsunami and earthquake of March 2011. A physically streamlined body deals better with stress than a body loaded with a heaping dose of cola, remnant foods in the colon, and limited oxygen capacity in the lungs.

daily basis has great benefits which only you can discover over time. Food plays a major part in this equation. As blood is the main sustainer of life, it also contains dangerous waste matter. Liquid and solid waste, for example, is extracted from the blood and becomes deposited in the human excretory system. Therefore it makes logical sense to avoid consumption of blood. (2:173 Surah Al-Baqarah The Cow) He hath only forbidden you dead meat, and blood, and the flesh of swine, and that on which any other name hath been invoked besides that of Allah. But if one is forced by necessity, without willful disobedience, nor transgressing due limits,- then is he guiltless. For Allah is Oft-forgiving Most Merciful.
Good meats fit for human consumption come from animals that have been bled thoroughly. In general, consumption of foods with negative side effects should be avoided as much as possible.
Fruits and
vegetables are always encouraged. (16:14 Surah An-Nahl The Bee) It is He Who has made the sea subject, that ye may eat thereof flesh that is fresh and tender, and that ye may extract therefrom ornaments to wear; and thou seest the ships therein that plough the waves, that ye may seek (thus) of the bounty of Allah and that ye may be grateful.

(16:69 Surah An-Nahl The Bee) Then eat from all the fruits and follow the ways of your Lord laid down [for you]." There emerges from their bellies a drink, varying in colors, in which there is healing for people. Indeed in that is a sign for a people who give thought.
Modern medicine has an Achilles heel when it isolates chemical compounds in order to determine their positive or negative effects. Just as oxygen and hydrogen on their own present the purest form of volatile and dangerous combustible energy, yet together they form water which is an anti-combustible37. Fruits have now been confirmed to contain antioxidants which help fight and protect against a multitude of potential ailments. There is a difference between vitamin antioxidant supplements and those found in fruits. Pectin, citric acid as well as the subtle natural oils found in the skins of some fruits are not always found in vitamin supplements. The consumption of natural foods therefore is critical to delving into the depths of the Quran and the reality of the universe. The first three weeks of waking up two hours before sunrise may present itself as a challenge. Over time however, the benefits will outweigh the effort. 37 [New Science]

11.2 Component 2: Psychological, Emotional, and Mental Balance As difficult as it may sound, controlling one's own emotional makeup is perhaps the most difficult to achieve. At this stage it is assumed that you have been eating good clean foods, have begun waking up 2 hours before sunrise, engaged in exercise, have implemented the 5 daily synchronizations (prayers) and have been doing so for about three weeks (21 days). 11 Putting it All Together: The 3 Components

If you have been keeping a journal of your changes, you will be happy to see positive progress. These are the steps that lead to a door that when opened allows understanding of how the ancients saw the world. Upon exiting the box of the mind, one can see reality from a distance. Synchronicity (prayer), a clear mind, emotionally neutral yet content, that thinks outside the box results in the connection to the Lord of the Worlds. (2:152 Surah Al-Baqarah The Cow) So, remember Me, (and) I will remember you; and give thanks to Me; and do not disbelieve Me.
Take note that the word remember means literally to re-member, as in rejoin, reacquaint, put together again, and of course connect. The importance of being balanced on the psychological level cannot be more emphasized. This is the basis of the entire goal orientation of the Quran. A mental state of mind that is unbalanced will find it difficult to reach the deeper levels of intelligence as proposed by the Quran. Violent, aggressive, greedy, hateful, deceitful, and angry behavior will 11 Putting it All Together: The 3 Components
154
Zarrar Sheikh
go no where as these do not allow synchronization. They also lead to fear stemming from guilt, and actions that are shameful. This type of behavior leads to chaos and disconnection from the Lord of the Worlds. (29:45 Surah Al-Ankabut The Spider) Recite what is sent of the Book by inspiration to thee, and establish regular Prayer: for Prayer restrains from shameful and unjust deeds; and remembrance of Allah is the greatest (thing in life) without doubt. And Allah knows the (deeds) that ye do. (53:32 Surah An-Najm The Star) Those who avoid great sins and shameful deeds, only (falling into) small faults,- verily thy Lord is ample in forgiveness. He knows you well when He brings you out of the earth, And when ye are hidden in your mothers' wombs. Therefore justify not yourselves: He knows best who it is that guards against evil.
The best way to maintain a balanced emotional, psychological, and mental state of mind is to accept the challenges of life, and work steadily towards a goal. Simply letting go of pain, anguish, anxiety and accumulated grief is the best way. The greatest pain human beings carry result from loneliness, detachment from family, significant others, rejection, abuse, as well as 11 Putting it All Together: The 3 Components
Qurandroid
155
the hardships of life. In conventional methods, such as drugs, psychotherapy, or medicine for the mind, neutralizing these emotions may not be easy.
The
ancient ways of bowing one's head down on the floor in synchronization with the Lord of the Worlds, daily exercise, and diet control, however, can without a doubt reduce the impact of negative and harmful emotions. The Quran is an aid and a guide to developing humans towards their full potential. If human beings can make an effort to change, the Lord of the Worlds will help make this change a reality. The choice of change is within every sentient being. Human beings must control their anger, hate, violence and chaos if any great change is to be expected. This world after all is only a transitory life, seeking the middle way is critical. (8:53 Surah Al-Anfal The Spoils of War) That is because Allah would not change a favor which He had bestowed upon a people until they change what is within themselves. And indeed, Allah is Hearing and Knowing.
At the precipice, the middle way or action is the only initiative that 11 Putting it All Together: The 3 Components

will enable a response from the universe. The mindset of the middle way allows one to think of the Lord of Worlds, who reciprocates when this takes place. You are never alone in the face of the conceptual 2012.

11.3 Component 3: The Ascension to the Lord of the Worlds The third step, or rather level and destination of the Quran development for sentient life is ascension. What can be expected at this level is dependent upon the individual. The Quran however does give some glimpses into what elements take place at this level. It is here where great mystics, Sufi, and those of wisdom are born. At this level things like stars, the zodiac, the night
11 Putting it All Together: The 3 Components
Qurandroid
159
of power, the night visitant, and other elements come into play. (15:16 Surah Al-Hijr The Rocky Tract) It is We Who have set out the zodiacal signs in the heavens, and made them fair-seeming to (all) beholders; (97:1 Surah Al-Qadr The Power) We have indeed revealed this (Message) in the Night of Power: (97:2 Surah Al-Qadr The Power) And what will explain to thee what the night of power is? (97:3 Surah Al-Qadr The Power) The Night of Power is better than a thousand months.
The time for reaching this level is unknown as this is the beginning of the individual journey towards the Lord of the Worlds. It is here where the proverbial face of God is sought, where the ordinary world is transformed by the light of the Lord of the Worlds. Reaching this level many obstacles, trials and tribulations, oscillations between pain, suffering, and happiness are all overcome. (92:20 Surah Al-Layl The Night) Except for seeking the Face of his Lord, The Most Exalted.

There are stages and tests after which sentient life is allowed to become part of the greater universe beyond the reality of Earth life. The ultimate reality outside the Earth box is the goal of intelligent life. Chaos, wars, and bloodshed may exist on Earth no doubt, but it is a futile effort to cling on to a world and life that by its very nature is temporary.
Beyond this is the reality that human beings do not
understand, as it is the great unknown. (31:30 Surah Luqman Luqman) That is because Allah is the (only) Reality, and because whatever else they invoke besides Him is Falsehood; and because Allah,- He is the Most High, Most Great. (69:3 Surah Al-Haqqah The Reality) And what can make you know what is the Inevitable Reality?
Does this mean that an individual, a society or a species should accelerate the process to its own demise, or simply give up living since there is no escape from death? Absolutely not. This world is a test to determine what choices an individual, society, or species will make under unique circumstances. The test is based on the universal laws of basic ethics, and ability to determine between good and bad. The universe will give you anything you want in this 11 Putting it All Together: The 3 Components

examination room, but with such power comes responsibility. If one needs protection, the basis of civilization or guidance, then it is available. You can have anything you need, but misuse of power has consequences. (2:53 Surah Al-Baqarah The Cow) And remember We gave Moses the Scripture and the Criterion (Between right and wrong): There was a chance for you to be guided aright. (27:15 Surah An-Naml The Ant) We gave (in the past) knowledge to David and Solomon: And they both said: "Praise be to Allah, Who has favored us above many of his servants who believe!" (28:14 Surah Al-Qasas The Stories) When he reached full age, and was firmly established (in life), We bestowed on him wisdom and knowledge: for thus do We reward those who do good. (28:43 Surah Al-Qasas The Stories) And We gave Moses the Scripture, after We had destroyed the former generations, as enlightenment for the people and guidance and mercy that they might be reminded.
The consequences of misconduct, creating chaos, injustices and confusion on Earth carry a heavy burden. The universe will offer its vast resources to those who seek it, for a time, until human impulses, 11 Putting it All Together: The 3 Components
162
Zarrar Sheikh
greed and tyranny become evident.
Even the greatest of leaders,
thinkers, those of wisdom will succumb to their own whims from time to time. Depending on the nature of the whim and to which degree it creates chaos, it maybe forgiven, as human beings are not perfect, and considered infantile on a universal scale. But when an individual society, or species continues to carry out its ill plans, creating chaos and imbalance, there is consequence. (3:89 Surah Al-Imran The Family of Imran) Except for those that repent (Even) after that, and make amends; for verily Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. (41:17 Surah Fussilat Explained in Detail) And as for Thamud, so We guided them, yet they showed love for blindness above guidance; so the (stunning) thunderbolt of the torment of degradation took them (away) for whatever they used to earn.
Ascension to the Lord of the Worlds takes place without anger, violence, selfishness, tyranny or chaos in thought or mind. Earth can have a perfect world without wars and conflict. All that is needed to achieve this is to ask the Lord of the Worlds for guidance on how. The March 2011 Japan earthquake and tsunami is a wake-up sign. Humanity has been warned that something of a conceptual 2012 event may lurk around the corner of time. There is still time to make 11 Putting it All Together: The 3 Components
Qurandroid

corrections and work towards possible preventative, or reactive solutions at the onslaught of such incidents. Ascension is not just limited to human beings, individuals or even a species. It can take place on a planetary level as well, where an entire planet could become a new planet. As far fetched as this may sound in light of contemporary 21st century wisdom, in the ageless concepts of the Quran, such an idea is not only relevant but a very possible reality. (14:48 Surah Ibrahim Abrahim) One day the earth will be changed to a different earth, and so will be the heavens, and (men) will be marshalled forth, before Allah, the One, the Irresistible;

12 Identity of Sentient Machines Diversity is the key that ensures survival of a species. Without diversity life forms may simply be identical copies, clones, or drones of one another. In a crisis situation such life forms have the propensity to make the same choices and decisions whether good or bad in a uniform manner. In the universe of the Quran, diversity extends beyond human races,

Qurandroid

cultures, languages, groups, as well as the Earth itself. Regardless of which school of thought is used as the lens to view the entirety of existence, the end result is the same. The enigma of the Jinn is a definite indicator that there is intelligent life other than human beings. With the existence of the Jinn, the weare-alone-in-the-universe mantra should be put to rest. Every sentient being has a role to play in the grand scheme of things. At the top of the hierarchical ladder of sentience exists the Lord of the Worlds. At the bottom of the sentient ladder are human beings. In between are the sentient beings commonly known as angels. Gabriel is among the angels who have visited human beings for one reason or another. With these sentient beings inferred from the Quran, human beings have very little reason be further divisive. Yet this division between human beings is perhaps one layer which makes it possible to create, sustain, and ensure the propagation of 6 billion people on Earth. Though some lines of division have become blurred by the 21st century, the function of this division has however played itself out. It is often politically incorrect to state that the three major Quran 12 Identity of Sentient Machines
166
Zarrar Sheikh
originated systems of Judaism, Christianity and Islam are in fact the same, and provide a separate, yet equally important function towards the end goal. If the end goal of this era is to sustain 6 billion people, then all human actions that precede this moment are valid. This of course justifies all of human history up to the current day. Without going into the roles of major human groups and their influences towards achieving the goal of 6 billion people, the focus is on the contribution the Hafiz (those who have memorized the Quran) have made. It is because this is not a history book, or inclined towards any human political direction. The collective human species has made great contributions in various ways. Keep in mind, that God, Allah, the Lord of the Worlds works in mysterious ways that human beings do not understand. The greatest contribution the Hafiz have made is to preserve the Quran in its entirety over the last 1,400 approximate years. This is the biggest triumph of human history because it sustains the aboriginal link that human beings have to the Lord of the Worlds. It is only the Quran which places an emphasis on the concepts of 12 Identity of Sentient Machines
Qurandroid
167
relative time periods, oscillations of creation and destruction, sentient life forms out side of the Earth human system (Jinn), connectivity to higher powers of the universe, as well as the approach of humans being not alone. The Hafiz since ancient times have created a self made culture that is mostly void of excessive pleasures.
Even though monasticism is
warned against in the Quran, the Hafiz for the past 1,400 years have sacrificed Earthly pleasure in order to continue the memorization of the Quran for infinite periods of time. When pleasure was sacrificed as a goal, memorization of the Quran became the goal. If pleasure had become the goal, this aboriginal connection to the infinite past via the Quran would have been lost forever. Writing, reading, mechanical exploration, mechanical science, industrialization, financial profiting, as well as the concepts of the global village all originated from the the Lord of the Worlds. (3:48 Surah Al-Imran The Family of Imran) And He will teach him writing and wisdom and the Torah and the Gospel (16:5 Surah An-Nahl The Bee) And the cattle-He created them for you; in them is warmth and (various) uses (i.e., profits) and of them 12 Identity of Sentient Machines

you eat;
The human species with its diverse groups and factions has taken charge of all these fields in various ways to work towards the common end goal without even realizing it was happening. This does not mean that there is no discernment between right and wrong. It simply means that despite the chaos currently present in the human world, the goal of 6 billion people has been reached before the potential approach of the conceptual 2012. There are several tasks that human beings as a species must carry out in order to propagate 6 billion people. Uniformity of tasks, creativity, or mind between all members of the human species is not the answer. Diversity sometimes is the solution. For example, if all humans on Earth were memorizing the Quran for the last 1,400 years, who would shoulder the burdens of maintaining infrastructures to make the world run. Conversely, if all human beings became merchants, who would memorize the Quran. Professional identity, roles, and responsibilities are elements that have somehow been delegated throughout the human species.
12 Identity of Sentient Machines

In terms of human identity, this section illustrates the commonality between human beings. Also that race, ethnicity, and culture are just passing definitions in this iteration of time on Earth. In the end, human beings are just that, human beings. Attempting to create an identity of anyone who follows the Quran is the result of a narrow, or subjective vision. This is because there maybe countless life forms outside of the human sphere who have in their own respective ways adopted the guidance of the Quran in their own languages, and cultures. It maybe possible to think that the Jinn may have their own caste systems, ethnic groups, good guys and bad guys, wars and chaos similar to human beings. Since Jinn follow divergent paths, perhaps much like the human world, the Quran applicable to them may also be memorized by various groups of Jinn. Just like the concept of time in the Quran is fluid, and relative, the concept of identity is just as fluid and relative. In the view of the potential 2012 event, it maybe significant that those versed in the knowledge of the Quran may be able to invoke the Lord of the Worlds in order to ask protection for all humanity, irrespective of identity, faction, political view, race, or culture. 12 Identity of Sentient Machines

Whether it is understood or not, the diversified, non-uniform human species has accomplished great feats, and should to be protected in the conceptual 2012 event. Anyone connected to the Lord of the Worlds will no doubt try to help as many as possible. After all, there is safety in being organized, and in numbers. In the approach of the conceptual 2012, the only solution maybe to adopt the wisdom of Moses and others delved in the mystic traditions to save the human world from extinction.

As mentioned earlier, human brain capacity hasn't changed, but some of the components seem to be turned off for now. Whatever the reasons for this blindness when compared to the ancient perceptions of existence, we need to thank ancient man for leaving behind the traces of their world through art. Without ancient relics, which include the Quran, modern man would truly be lost. The cover of this book is a Turkish illustration from the 16th century showing the Prophet Muhammad ascending towards the heavens. He sits on top of a horse-like animal with wings and a human face known as the Buraq. In the scene there are many other beings with wings carrying containers, dishes, and objects of various kinds. Many believe these to be mythical creatures, from tales of old that make no sense. However, being that languages, human cultures, and people change over time, the best way to send information downstream into the future is by visual representations and hope that it could be understood. Therefore the cover of this book tells a very simple story. The horse, wings, and a human face on the horse represents a journey on a flying vehicle that has intelligence of some kind. The other beings with 13 Book Cover: Ascension and Journey with the Sacred Fire

wings are perhaps angels. The fire in this scene is everywhere, yet it is smokeless. The Sacred Fire as it is known is the essence of all life where divine intervention, affect, or divine providence is present. Beneath the Buraq, there are several figures, one of them seems to hold a pan of Sacred Fire, perhaps causing the intelligent flight vehicle to become airborne, rise, or ascend. At the highest level of human development, the goal to is to ascend towards the Lord of the Worlds. The Sacred Fire that transcends cultures, time periods, and life forms may perhaps be the greatest triumph achievable by sentient life. This illustration represents the subject matter contained here. Whether mankind in the 21st century can ride a Buraq, or witness Sacred Fire is less important than the best effort to try and connect to the Lord of the Worlds and save Earth from the conceptual 2012 loom.

14 Conclusion With the information contained in this book, it should become apparent that the Quran is unique in its position on human origins, development, and purpose well beyond the realm of Earth. It is not a matter of faith, religion, or belief; it is simply a process that can be applied on an individual, societal, planetary, or species level. The key to understanding the universality of the Quran is the existence of the Jinn who are not human, yet are sentient life.
14 Conclusion
Qurandroid
177
Therefore racial, and species equality is not a matter as long sentient life is part of synchronicity with the Lord of the Worlds. There are a lot of concepts and topics not covered in this book which include outward appearances, cultural norms, economic systems, as well as any other process required to live or create a human civilization. This is because the norms of civilization also oscillate, mutate, become obsolete and then re-emerge over time. Clinging on any one way of living is futile since every environment may not be compatible with every way of thinking or perceived normalcy. What may be normal to one set of life forms maybe entirely alien to another. In order to reduce chaos, it is also advisable to adapt on many levels as possible. Even if one is captive or enslaved, the Quran suggests not to rebel, and to simply wait in patience, because help is near. Adaptation is the key to survival in any circumstance. This is certainly applicable to the conceptual 2012 event because often times resisting may not be the right solution. The old proverb of “that 14 Conclusion

which does not bend in the wind breaks� is true. And in the words of the Quran, it is the lowly spirit that gets the help from the Lord of the Worlds. A lowly spirit is one that is at peace, and waits for divine intervention. There is greater strength in being calm and patient than there is in anger. Anger leads to arrogance, pride, and a puffed up spirit which is ill advised in the Quran. No matter how difficult the situation for Earth maybe at this time of change, the Lord of the Worlds has not abandoned mankind. Perhaps mankind needs to call out to God, Allah, Lord of the Worlds or by any other name and communicate the situation at hand. (2:45 Surah Al-Baqarah The Cow) Nay, seek (Allah's) help with patient perseverance and prayer: It is indeed hard, except to those who bring a lowly spirit,(7:55 Surah Al-A'raf The Heights) Call on your Lord with humility and in private: for Allah loveth not those who trespass beyond bounds. (37:75 Surah As-Saffat Those Who Set the Ranks) (In the days of old), Noah cried to Us, and We are the best to hear prayer.
14 Conclusion

(93:3 Surah Ad-Duhaa The Morning Hours) Thy Guardian-Lord hath not forsaken thee, nor is He displeased.
It cannot be stressed enough that there is help for those who seek it, and there are steps towards this the ways to seek help. The guidelines are here, and available for all humanity to assist in any circumstance. With this said, there is no need to take means other than the peaceful way. Chaos, anger, rebellions and violence are no match for the power of the Lord of the Worlds. No matter if the Earth shakes, the poles shift, or a tidal wave approaches, there is a solution. Just as in the ways of the ancients when rods became snakes, and snakes became rods, or when waters of the Red Sea were split by Moses, the Lord of the Worlds does not discriminate. If you ask, and be patient, help will arrive no matter the situation. The conceptual 2012 can be managed, and turmoil can be reduced if a collective humanity seeks peace. And peace it shall be, since only at the precipice do we evolve.

Points of Entry: The Mystic Index The Quran being organized without any particular theme, order, or linearity represents the non-linear nature of the universe. Therefore even though the Quran does have a physical beginning, middle, and end, it does not have a contextual story line. Jumping into a random Surah of the Quran therefore is not unlikely, regardless if it is in the beginning, middle, or end. When attempting to dive into the Quran and its content, it is somewhat helpful to use an index based on the deeper, enigmatic and less popular 15 Appendix

subjects. With this in mind the Points of Entry index was developed to assist in creating doorways into the Quran. The index is meant to be looked over, glanced peacefully, without expectation, or any intention. The index does not represent topics of human existence on Earth but rather the esoteric, enigmatic corners of the Quran untouched by mainstream human cultures. The purpose is to scan the index entries and then jump to the appropriate Surah. And this begins the journey to understanding the Lord of the Worlds. 2:138

Surahs in the Quran This is a list of Surahs that are in the Quran. They represent the basic structure of the Quran. The names are conceptual abstracts, non-historical, as well as without any particular order. The Surahs are presented as another entry point into the enigmatic Quran. Upon looking at the various names of the Surahs, imaginations are stirred, mental pathways are ignited with curiosity.
This is because the contents deal with stars, worlds, lights,
ascensions, night journeys and other elements currently confined to the box of science fiction. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23.
