Are we alone in this universe?

18/05/201124/06/2014 Cemil Ruşeni

In the second point of the first chapter of his treatise on belief, Bediuzzaman recounts a dream, where Bediuzzaman sees himself on a high bridge between two lofty mountains. It is pitch dark everywhere. A deep dark abyss lies beneath. When Bediuzzaman looks around he imagines an endless graveyard on his right and a colossal storm approaching from the left. Terrified by the scene, he pulls a flashlight from his pocket in order to see well and to calm himself. Yet things are worse under the dim light. He notices…

Man, Narcissism and The Creator

12/01/201107/04/2011 Salahaddin Özel

Narcissism, a psychological term derived from Greek mythology, is defined in the dictionary as “the personality trait of egotism, vanity, conceit, or simple selfishness.” When you read the characteristics of a narcissist you think that all evils around the world stem from them. And also you think we are surrounded by those kinds of people all around of us. The worst, maybe we are one of them! One way or another, psychologists say we live in a narcissism age whose individuals are inflicted severely by it. The people who love…

Gift… Precious… Valuable… Life… Life is a gift… Actually life is a precious gift… Who does give such a precious gift to us? Who does provide the maintenance of our lives?

We get so much surprised when we get death news of people especially our loved ones… All of a sudden we…

Fallacious Mentality of Human Beings

The Existence of Human Being: Chance or Purposeful?

07/10/201001/04/2011 Salahaddin Özel

Let us begin with a question. What is the value of human being? Every field of knowledge has its answer to this question. However the real question is whether all these answers are the ones that heal the man’s existential pains or not. Psychologists say the issue of man’s feeling himself valuable is too important in terms of his being spiritually healthy. Abraham Maslow, the founder of humanistic psychology in America included the need of feeling valuable into his “hierarchy of human needs”. Thus, it is understood that all the…

Death: Never on our Agenda

07/10/201001/04/2011 Yunus Emre Pehlivan

We lost two brothers of us last week in an accident. It was a real shock for us. Two men passed away in their thirties at a time nobody expected. We have got plans for the future. There are agendas in minds actually. Those agendas mostly are full of objectives to be achieved in this world. Therefore, we put the death—the last thing people would like to talk about—at the bottom of the page. The last thing I would like to face is death. This life is a long journey…

Respect for Humanity (2)

13/07/201001/04/2011 Emre Karahan

Deep awareness of the suffering of another coupled with the wish to relieve it, that is shortly kindness and compassion, corner stones of civilization and humanity. Civilization, this term and definition supposed to have a positive meaning. Indeed it has. But what kind of a civilization is that? A civilization where people doesn’t care about each other and just individualize more day by day? Or a kind of civilization when some people are losing their life as a result of unhealthy and poor life standards while some others are getting…

How do we see ourselves?

11/03/201002/05/2011 Nader Medeiros Hasan Jaber, SUDAN

Human beings are indeed unique creatures. It doesn’t matter someone’s background when he looks into the subject, whether it is scientific, philosophical or religious we will find almost every scholar putting the human being in a different condition from the rest of the creatures – above them -, with characteristics that enable him to take his place as the best of creatures. But from this point the road splits into two different ways of studying this wonder of creation. The scientific stream that separates itself from religion occupies itself with…
