One of the disadvantages of writing which I was thinking about today is that our tones are not completely clear when we write and this could lead to many misconceptions.
We might think a person is screaming at us trying to bite our head off while they were actually just saying something in a normal fashion
We might think a person is blaming or condemning us while they were actually trying to praise us
We might think a person has a total hostile attitude while they claim they couldn’t have stated it any friendlier than what they have…
It’s not like people here are in constant conflict or this place is turning into a battlefield, but what I said remains to be a disadvantage of writing. The feeling you get out of a text when you read it on your own could be completely different from that which the author him/herself had intended to provide you with. It’s a great thing that everyone is free to have his/her own understanding of a text, but to what extent? Sometimes our imaginations take us so far off that the understanding we attain at the end might be totally against the author’s original intention.
Do you feel the same? How do you think this problem can be solved? I personally don’t think authors should guide us step by step I like having the freedom to roam about texts in my own way, yet the problem remains…

NO TITLE
Besemehi Taala
Dear All Salamalykom va rahmatollah
I am on a trip right now and I cannot write as much as I like in response to what Miniature, Passion, Suzi and Branch of Olive wrote in response to my last posting. But I just want to clarify few things here;
First: When I write something I am writing about my believs, right or wrong. These are what I beleive and do. I am telling you my experience in my life. I am not trying to say I am right and you are wrong, or you should accept or agree with what I say.
Second: I am not, at all, trying to TANEH BEZANAM BE KASSY. I have passed this stage for a long time now.
Third: More than anything else I beleive we should practice our English in this blog, and I do not agree that this blog is for everyone to get in. It is specially meant for our hamrahs to practice their English. So it is a bit private, and I am not trying to convey my thoughts to anyone in any way, I am just plainly trying to say what I feel just to have something to talk about. If someone brings up another issue I may also elaborate on that issue, if I have any knowledge or interest about it, otherwise I may only read it.
Fourth: I strongly recommend that we try to write in English because we are not trying to prove anything here. Of course this does not mean that we should say anything we want, or try to bring up issues which are questionable and things like that, but since we do not want to force our thoughts to others we can say these in English even though we feel we cannot say what we mean by that in plain English. Because I think we can say what we mean even we think we are week in English. If we do not observe this then the blog is going to change to a place for talking about different issues without thinking about its major aim which was and is learning English.
Fifth: When I say I am affraid of death I really mean that, and I am saying I am affraid of death. I am not saying that everyone is also affraid of death but they are saying something else because of, I don't know, some other reasons. I am just saying, plainly I am affraid of death and that' all. I just gave you one example and I will give you some more soon inshallah. Everyone else is free to think in other ways and I respect that. Actually I sometimes "GHEBTEH MIKHORAM" for those who can see life differently and have come to a stage to see the whole thing in a more rational way. I wish I was like them, but frankly I am not, and this is what I regret.
Sixth: When I said running with our head down, I meant not looking around or not seeing or knowing where we go. I did not think about being ASHAMED, even though I admit that this can also be applied. But this is not what I thought about it at first. I am going to think about that also later inshallah, because I think this is also a matter that can be considered
I will soon inshallah wirte more in response to our hamrahs comments on the issue of death. I ask every one of you please notify me if I am diverting from what I said here any time you feel I am doing that, because I am a human being and I make mistakes, and of course I am affraid more than anything else in my life.
Finally: I am sorry to use a lot of I here, this does not imply that I am somebody, it is because my English is not that good to write in a more appropriate way.
Finally 2: All I said was ONLY MY OWN THOUGHTS, NO OFFENCES, NO KENAYEH TO ANY ONE, It might be totally wrong or partially wrong, but certainly not completely true or right.

Confession
I was watching
گاهی به آسمان نگاه کن
a couple of hours ago which was broadcast on channel 4…I had seen it before but it's interesting how soon we forget things...
I have to say I am also afraid of death, and that’s very much…
I am afraid of having to spend 80 years in Purgatory before even knowing whether I’ll dwell in Heaven or Hell
I’m even afraid of the purifying fire which burns to my own benefit
I am also afraid…
اشتباه نکنید
من دمدمی مزاج نیستم
فقط آدمم
دائما در حال تغییرو تنبه
شاید همون طور که شاخه ی زیتون گفت
My fear and hope also exist beside each other…

ما برای وصل کردن آمدیم نی برای فصل کردن آمدیم
ما برای وصل کردن آمدیم نی برای فصل کردن آمدیم
سلا م به همه دوستان خوب الوند ، خسته نباشید
از آنجا که بنده دانشجوی مبتدی این کلاس هستم و تصور می کنم برای استفاده از برخی مفاهیم و اصطلاحات ممکن است دچار مشکل شده و نتوانم مقصود خود را به صورت روشن و واضح بیان کنم ، لذا از زبان مادریمان استفاده می کنم.
( قبلا از دوستان محترم عذ ر خواهی می کنم اگر از این طریق ممکن است هنجار وبلاگ را به هم بزنم)
در ابتدا از احمد رضا تشکر می کنم به خاطر جوابیه محترمانه ایشان
احتمالا اگر بنده با دین اسلام مشکلی داشتم، یقینا این شیوه برای جذب و ایجاد حس تفاهم و همد لی بسیار نیکو و پسندیده بود!
اما در کنار احمد رضا ، از حاجی ممنونم که با همان متانتی که ویژگی این نسل است ، پاسخ داده است
به هر حال هر نسلی ، ویژگی خاص خود را دارد.
ابتدا لازم است توضیح دهم که من این فضایی را که در وبلاگ ایجاد شده و کلا فضایی را که بین همراهان نور ایجاد شده ، خیلی مقد س و خاص می دانم و فکر می کنم از طریق این فضا( یعنی داشتن ارتباطات رو در رو نزدیک ) می توان در جهت حل بسیاری از مسائل و مشکلات اجتماعی گام برداشت .
مسائلی که امروز صاحبنظران و کار شناسان مسائل اجتمائی دائم برای آن همایش و سمینار برگزار می کنند و شاید عملا هم به نتیجه ای نرسند )
از این منظر ، من می خواهم بگویم که ما یک فضای شخصی و اختصاصی داریم و یک فضای اجتماعی .
وبلاگ یک فضای اجتماعی است که آدمهای متفاوتی با روحیه های متفاوت در آن در رفت و آمدند و من در این فضا ، نگران نسلی هستم که امروز به عنوان نسل جوان با آن درگیریم .(البته صحبت من شامل استنائات این نسل مثل بهار نارنج و امثالهم که حکم کیمیا را دارند ، نمی شود )
مشکل امروز ما با نسلی است پدران و مادران آنها اعتقادات قلبی محکمی دارند ، برای شهادت ، ایثار و کمال معنوی انسان ارزش قائلند . اما خود آنها دچار نوعی مسخ شدگی ، از خود بیگانگی و پوچی و پوچ گرایی شده اند .
مشکل امروز ما و همه مسئولین و صاحبنظران ، بی هویتی این نسل است ، نسلی که به همه ارزش های معنوی ، پشت پا زده و به آنها دهن کجی می کند .
گاهی اوقات با کمال تعجب می بینیم که مسئولین و دست اندر کاران برای حفظ همه اعتقادات و ارزشهای خود، این گروه را ناد یده می گیرند و می گویند که آنها بخش اقلی از جامعه هستند و ما نمی توانیم به خاطر این بخش اقل ، سیاستها و برنامه هایمان را تغییر دهیم .
اما بر عکس نتایج تحقیقات اجتماعی مشخص کرده که آنها خیلی هم کم نیستند . بنا براین ،امروز ما به عنوان مسلمان در مقابل آنها مسئولیم و نمی توانیم چشممان را بر آن ببند یم و بی تفاوت از کنارشان بگذریم.
حاجی عزیز ، اینها غیر مسلمان نیستند آنها پدران و مادران مسلمان دارند ، و خود آنها یکی در میان به برخی از اصول دین عمل می کنند .
اما چون به دلایل عد یده اعتقادات این نسل خد شه دار شده ، وقتی در مقابل آنها از مرگ سخن می گویی ، یا آن را به مسخره می گیرند و یا اینکه خود را در آرزو و مشتاق آن نشان می دهند . اینها در این مباحث خیلی اهل تفکر نیستند و مثل اینکه اصلا حوصله فکر کردن ندارند
با این تفاسیر ، ما وظیفه داریم که خیلی محتاطانه با این نسل مواجه شویم و قدم به قدم آنها را پیش ببریم ، بسیار نرم و لطیف .
اینها نسبت به جمع های مسلمان ما حساس شده اند و گویی از ما گریزانند.
اما در مورد دویدن با سر پایین یا بالا ؛ جناب حاجی من فکر می کنم که در این زمینه یک سوء تفاهم ایجاد شده است . در بخشهای اول ، در مورد running ، بنا ، بر این بود که بد ویم اما با تفکر هدفمند و با انگیزه ، اتفاقا بخشهای اولیه شما در مورد running، بسیار تاثیر گذار بود . من به نقش استعاره ما و نفوذ کلام استعاره ما در متون بسیار معتقد م و استعاره شما در مورد running ، بسیار زیبا بود .
اینکه نباید دیگران ما را به جلو برانند و باید با تفکر قدم برداشت . اما در مورد وقتی که سرمان باید پایین باشد . این سر پایین از جنس دیگری است ، از جنس شرمندگی .
جناب حاجی عزیز، من هم مثل شما از دیدن این همه تفاوت در جامعه ای اسلامی احساس درد و رنج می کنم
به قول مادربزرگهایمان نان ما آغشته به خون است .
از امکانات زندگی مدرن استفاده می کنیم اماهمراه درد و حرمان و تنها روزی می توانیم آرام بگیریم که عدالت سر تا سر جهان را فرا بگیرد .
اما تا آن روز آیا وظیفه ، تنها غصه خوردن است؟! و اینکه فکر کنیم ما با این وضعیت چگونه می خواهیم بمیریم و هراسان باشیم .
جناب حاجی ، من هم ، همه آنچه شما در مورد کلیشه های زندگی امروز نوشتید را قبول دارم
من هم به شدت از کلیشه هایی که دنیای مدرن بر ما تحمیل کرده، بیزارم ، من هم به شدت از مدرنیته و مظاهر آن که انسانرا د چار نوعی مسخ شدگی نمود و کمال سوء استفاده را از آن نمود ، بیزارم .
اما من در کنار اینها معتقدم ما با هر وسیله ای که شده ، حد اقل با همین writing ها باید این کلیشه ها را بشکنیم.
جناب حاجی، من هم دقیقا مثل شما همیشه فکر می کنم چگونه می توانیم این تفاوت ها و تبعیض ها را ببینیم و با آرامش زندگی کنیم؟اما در کنار آن همیشه این سخن علی ( ع ) را که " برای دنیا به گونه ای زندگی کن که گویی سالها زنده ای و برای برای مرگ به گونه ای که فردا خواهی مرد " را با خود نجوا می کنم .
بنابراین من احساس می کنم یک مسلمان همیشه باید با خوف و رجا زندگی کند . مسلمان هم باید امیدوار باشد هم خائف و شاید هیچ نیرویی بیشتر از این وضعیت خوف و رجا نتواند او را به انگیزش وا دارد .
اگر همیشه امیدوار به لطف خداوند باشید و ترسی نداشته باشید ، شاید هیچ کار مثبتی انجام ندهید.
بنابراین چنین نیرویی ، یعنی خوف همراه با رجا است که انسان را در راه تغییر کلیشه ها، هدفمند تر و استوار تر می سازد.
و از همه مهمتر اینکه واقعا من نمی توانم این سخن را بپذیرم که ما سالیان سال با این کلیشه ها ، عادت کرده ایم و نمی توانیم تغییر کنیم .
اگر انسان نتواند تغییر کند و اگر هر دو روز یک مسلمان مثل هم باشد ، مسلمان نیست .
ما نمی توانیم همه چیز را تغییر دهیم ولی باید در این راه تلاش کنیم . اگر تنها از روی شرمندگی و خوف سرمان را پایین اندازیم و قدم برداریم ،آیا چشم خود را به روی حقیقت نبسته ایم ؟
به همین دلیل این تلاش و این امیدواری است که مرگ را در عین خوف آن برایمان شیرین و دلچسب می سازد و من از آن به عنوان اتفاقی با شکوه یاد می کنم .
بنابراین مرگ برای من هم هراسناک است اما این هراس ، هراسی شیرین است .
حاجی عزیز ، همه حرف من این است که من و شما به عنوان مسلمان در مقابل نسل جدید مسئولیم و لذا باید با توجه به مقتضیات زمان گام برداریم ( این اصلا به معنای عدول از مواضع اعتقادی نیست ).
ما به عنوان نسل مسلمان دارای ارزش و متعصب نسبت به ارزشهایمان ، همواره در معرض دید نسل جدید هستیم و باید ارزشهایی را که برای آنها خون داده ایم ، حفظ کنیم اما به گونه ای که نسل جدید را که می خواهند در آینده سکان اداره امور را به دست بگیرند و شاید به گونه ای بتوانیم بگوییم ، می خواهند آینده جهان اسلام را رقم بزنند ، را همراه خود داشته باشیم .

how to die is important
Dear friends,
Salam,
I have not been with you for about one week or maybe more, of course, I read your beautiful and challengeable writings which, I guess, made me think of this question “to which community do I belong and why”?
I, myself, am scared of Death whose different reasons have been discussed here. For me Death is as a hint for living well in order to die well as Ali Shari`ti said "چگونه مردن هم شرطه" so I try to live in a way to get ready for death but not for an ordinary one.
Following what Miniature said, enjoying everything I have and I don’t is one of the best ways for appreciating God. I am not sure how much I can be honest in this case but I try to thank my God with living happily so that I can die happily.
Dear Haji , it is really good that you have this Sa`adat to think of the POOR although there might be some people who are not even aware of this difference between them and the poor as if it is completely natural to have this kind of world. This thought makes you Insha`llah help them with whatever way which is possible even with listening to their DARDs and complains.
The Help should not be necessarily considered with giving financial helps. Sometimes, their tired souls need a good listener to share their problems with him or her.
Last week I had a journey to Kish where I visited a Man, a really Zahmat kesh man , named Mr. Rezaiean born in Hormozgan Province . As he was saying he had to tolerate bad and sometimes terrible condition for surviving and living. I was really feeling sorry for him, for his hard job and for low income he had. I knew well that I have much much muchly more facilities and comfortable life but I couldn’t help him financially due to E`zate Nafs I saw in him.
When we started having trip around island, I found out he was really proud of the history he has and he talked about that with lots of غيرت as if he doesn’t have any problems in his life. I really respected him and showed it with the questions I ask him in ordet to make him ensure that his عزت نفس و غيرت can be compar
ed with nothing in the world . you can’t believe that while he was describing Historical city, Harireh (see the picture) , Green Tree, Kaariz (Ghanaat : the way people used to filter water around 1000 years ago ) , old villages , and their life styles, a woman and her boy were not listening to him at all ( they were talking about their Haida sandwiches) as if he is talking with himself. This is the tragedy about not having that you ,Haji, should be thankful.
The other thing I want to add is some poor people are satisfied with bad conditions they have in life, they may be happy for many things which can’t be understood and felt by us.

Hi to all friends:
Dear haji:
When I read your writhing , had been discovered many thing in myself. Because running in life covered all things in myself.
Many years ago
When I don’t responsible family, I payed for many things. About neighbor and poor people,……….
But I think flow life took me with speed wind and forget all the things .
When I read your writhing .I am feeling the person talk in myself, and I don’t able write nice sentence.
I stop for writhing.when I read you say: “ hamrahs just keep quiet and not talk about any thing”
I decided wring,
اکنون I am Running with head down, and don’t attention around,
و انقدر غرق در دنیایم که قلبم از دیدن .....و زخم هم برنمیدارد.
ای کاش اشاره های شما مرا از غفلت بیدارکند.

What makes a difference
Hi again, to all Alvandis! And thanks Passion, it’s good to be here too.
برای تمامی سبک بالان و سنگین بالان!
It’s definitely a great way of living to compare and coordinate our lifestyles and actions with those of our prophets and Imams as they are the best model to follow in these cases, no doubt.
شاید حرف هایی که الان می زنم را بشه خیلی راحت گذاشت به حساب راحت طلبی
Or the same scapegoat story but bear with me please at least until you’re finished reading!
Those very prophets and Imams have clearly stated that we cannot be exactly like them. And isn’t it true that
"لا یکلف الله نفسا الا وسعها"
I am not saying we should sit back and say

I am not saying we should sit back and say
همینم که هستم خدا هم که بیش از این از من انتظار نداره
so lets just relax and waste our lives doing nothing coz God’s merciful and he doesn’t expect more than what I’m doing right now. No. We should definitely cultivate our abilities to the utmost degree that we can. We should always be endeavoring to make our wrongs right. But wouldn’t it be better if we replace fear with action…
بعدشم مگه خود خدا نگفته که بخورید و بیاشامید و از نعمت های من لذت ببرید پس حاجی جان
I think you are actually doing a great job listening to God's instructions, enjoying those strawberries...
بله بله بله کنار همه ی این چیزا باید به فکر فقرا بود باید کمک به هم نوع کرد من منکر هیچ کدوم از این ها نیستم و بر عکس سخت بهشون اعتقاد دارم
all I'm sayin is I don't think it's necessary to blame ourselves so much, as long as we keep blaming ourselves we leave no room for ourselves to flourish
بله باید عیب هامون را ریشه یابی کنیم و در جهت اصلاحشون بکوشیم
but for that we need to give ourselves a little space we need to breathe...
Our Imams had amazingly great responsibilities which I think is totally over my mind… and the bigger the responsibility the bigger the fear… but we are different our actions are different our lifestyles our different our time spans are different we are different in so many ways and it’s completely normal… so maybe our fears should also be different… Maybe, I dunno...

Besmehi Taala
انا لله و انا اليه راجعون
Dear all salam, this is actually what I was hoping to see. People read each others writing and respond to it. For me it is more important that hamrahs argue with each other than just keep quiet and not talk about anything. Before I go on I think I should thank my dear Ahmadreza to come out and speak on my behalf. It is not amazing at all to read these sentences he wrote to clarify what I meant to say since he is very close to me because we have been in close contact with each other, virtually living together, ever since he was born.
Yes I know and I strongly believe انا لله و انا الیه راجعون I also strongly believe God is merciful, and I believe in all other اسماء اعظم of God all of which carry a strong meaning with them. But I am, as Ahmadreza says so honestly, scared. Why should not I be scared when Imam Ali (AS) says in doaa Komail, “oh God would you let the face of those who have put their faces on the soil to pray you feel the fire of hell” or many other verses of this doaa which shows how much Imam Ali (AS) is “در مقابل خداوند متعال خائف است" ” can I not be scared? Read "صحيفه سجاديه" and then tell me you are anxiously waiting to die. Do we have any doubt that our beloved Imams are going to enjoy the company of God? If we know I, so why do they say these things? All of us have heard the what Imam Ali (AS) with Hazrateh Zahra (AS) and Imam Hassan (AS) and Imam Hossein (AS) did in Ramadan, and we are all followers of them. What did they do in their EFTAR time for three consecutive nights? I don’t know about you but I know myself very well and I am not ashamed of saying this, (of course I am ashamed of myself), every day and night I do lots of things that are not in line with what they did. Do you want an example? Here is one. The car I am driving has a big trunk, and thank God lost of goodies can find their place in there. When I go to buy fruit, I almost fill one fourth of this trunk. And you know what, I am not saying I do not give a damn about those who do not have enough money to eat even one apple in whole one month, and there are lots of them, but I really don’t think about them much. This goes on with meat, chicken, pizzas, …. And anything you might think of, as a matter of fact right now I am enjoying a company of a bowl of fresh strawberry while writing these sentences.
Frankly I can’t help it I am a food lover, and a fruit lover, but don’t rush to make a conclusion, I also think about those poor people, but i normally think about them when I cannot continue eating. Yes I am running with my head down, because if I keep my head up and keep my eyes open I see, and if I see then I will be responsible. I am brave enough to admit it and admit I am so weak I have not been able to change my habit a bit after 58 years. God knows I am scared. I always pray God and wish I would never die. I am scared and I know when I die, no one will care much for long, because I have seen what people talk about at the mosque when they come to pay final respect to me being dead. Oh boy I am shaking and shaking bad. And I am sure I have to answer for my ignorance and I do not have much to say.

Frankly I can’t help it I am a food lover, and a fruit lover, but don’t rush to make a conclusion, I also think about those poor people, but i normally think about them when I cannot continue eating. Yes I am running with my head down, because if I keep my head up and keep my eyes open I see, and if I see then I will be responsible. I am brave enough to admit it and admit I am so weak I have not been able to change my habit a bit after 58 years. God knows I am scared. I always pray God and wish I would never die. I am scared and I know when I die, no one will care much for long, because I have seen what people talk about at the mosque when they come to pay final respect to me being dead. Oh boy I am shaking and shaking bad. And I am sure I have to answer for my ignorance and I do not have much to say.
DEATH...
I'm speechless! It's so wonderful to see so many brave "hamrahs" in our community. look, they're all embracing death. I envy all of you who have risen so spiritually alhamdolellah that you can speak so freely and strongly about death without the least bit of fear of what will happen to you.
I'm so proud of this community!
When someone speaks out of honesty don't take it as if there is something he needs to be taught. Of course we're all here to learn from each other, especially now where the theme is "writing" I don't think "writing" will be any good without a little bit of thinking. Forgive me if I'm rude, and forgive the sarcasm I used in the few lines I wrote here. The line I used in the first writings I did here goes well with what my Father wrote. Of course he knows Allah (swt) is most forgiving, and of course he has his utmost hope and reliance on Him. I to am afraid of death, not because I for one second would think Allah (swt) would not be "just", "kind" or forgiving. BECAUSE "LOOK AT ALL THE THINGS WE DID NOT DO AND ARE STILL NOT DOING"
how can we claim to be excited or not worried about death, how can we claim that we are running with our head high?? There's always better and more far fetched goals to obtain, what came of us when we didn't reach out for those goals? Yes inshallah He will forgive us, but again I ask "What came of us?" we knew what was right and we didn't take it, we knew what was good and we left it...
After reading, listening and singing all those poems by the poets and reciting the verses of Quran which are full of hope for us, we might want to also take a look at the verses which remind us of what else might come of us.
I don't know about you friends, but I just can't believe it's going to be that easy, I heard a speaker say in muharram that Hor shook so hard that you could hear his bones shaking when he thought of going to hell...
So I ask you again, shouldn't we be afraid??
Wassalam

Death, not dark , not bit, it's very magnificent
The last time that I Analized and discussed mystery of death it was in the Qomie's class and we are studying one article from "Leo Buscaglia ". in that story that named "The fall of Freddie the leaf " Leo Buscaglia explained very beautiful, philosophy of life and death . He draw death as a natural adventure and change that continues creation and existing. he lighting beautifully the place of life and death in the
World exist. "Leo Buscaglia" by language of leaf , says that all of the our action is living and flowing in the world exist and never destroy. therefore , we aren't died but ,we are a part of live by my action ( I suggest certainly you write this article ).
But against Haji's writing about death are very dark and bit ;his writing transfer a kind of suspens ( excuse me, of course I know not at all he hasn't this means)
I think Haji mixed life element with margins.
on the other hand Haji trys with his tools and scales is measuring people's act .
Mahdieh very good responded to Haji's worries) (
I think that Haji take a mistake about , The place of some things . for example: what happened in around of mosque can imagine a result of human life that he/she dead ?
Can we see result of people's action in this world ,appearance or effects of every one life must determined in this world.?
does red eyes , black dresses, and sadness fades connected whit ,and death life result or effect .
I think Haji forgot that we are Moslem and my religious has constitution rules and we have book (Koran) and tradition.

Haji you are trying running with head up means with thinking , with aim , and in the way of ALLAH.
I think maybe , this sentence that, we mustn't running with head down

It's important that you try and try for being good .

salam to all
I am sorry of that couldn’t to be hamrah with you for a long time( to reason had problem computer) .
I read beautiful writings haji,passion,miniature,baharnareng and other frends and thanks you to reason to bring up interesting issues.
in last two week, I had journey to shomal(jaye hameye shoma sabz bood)and interesting thing happen is this I have thinking in during way to nullity, death and being, be alive all kaenat.
For example: I hadn’t at all tired feel in during way, because road was so much beautiful so tired was meaningless, trees which in autumn and first winter season were dry and lifeless and mountain and tappehayi were yellow, to become to trees with green barghaye and some of trees branch full of gilass and apple fruits and mountain and earth were as green carpet. In my idea this change mean evolution.
In last month I read book called درستایش نا ستوده ها that in one of chapter author explain about ستایش مرگ آموزی and praise did death to form beautiful.
This author said" we usually separate life of death and this distance between life and death cause to be afraid of death, we never experience death in life text and never question of our self so is it fight everyday live is near to real life or no? "
" the root often depressions and basis factor in life energy decrease, in had no suitable information about death. Whom is aware of death , moment to moment life for him/her is a moajezeh and absorb and neshate shorangiz"
My mean death and life in other side, has value and if we don’t thinking to death, aim of live and effort for it is meaningless and to said dr karimi "life and happiness to one mean, meaning die in any time and be live in other time".
We all of time thinking to live, un aware of that live understand and life feeling, when find grow up in our exist as thinking to death. Because, is death continual presence, as light life meaning .
I think afraid of death great to reason had no prepare for enter to other world and after dependence to مادی world and to be forgotten… .

when I go to ghabrestan great thinking to myself and my function and my mean in this time I and selfish destroy and that thing remain in mind:

MORE on the issue of DEATH
Besmehi Taala
Dear all, specially baharnarenj, salamalykom va rahmatollah
انا لله و انا الیه راجعون
I think what you are saying may be some of the reasons that we don’t want to talk about or think about death. When we talk about death, we normally say خدا نکنه, but I say that is exactly what God does. I cannot analyze what is going on with us considering the issue of death. In my last post I was trying to say, by just looking around us and thinking about our beloved ones who are not around us anymore we can feel death. And we can feel it is closer to us than we think. But I don’t know why we don’t seriously think about death and we behave in such away that there is no death after all and if we believe in it we it is meant for everyone else but us.
What I think is that if we had really believed in death, then we would behave a bit differently. You mentioned Sadam, I would like to add “Bush”, “Putin”, “Hitler”, “Shah”, and many many more people like these. I think if they had believed in God for just one moment they would not even think about committing this kind of crime.

I like writing about death too.
I like writing about death too.
why people don’t think about death even though we belived it?
I think maybe for afraid of it !
Adam’s prefer that forgot it and don’t think that maybe :I’ll بعدی !
When we know don’t have way for runway we prefer that forgot it
And or maybe we have belive because it is in we religion’s but
we don’t have belief (باور) belief very deeply than belive.
And maybe we don’t like think about death because we afraid of to be forgotten
we know all die and their name in the long run is forgotten and adam’s don’t like forgotten
and or maybe we don't satisfy from we run's and we think is need to a long time for change!

Light’s that is the cause to be turned on a few places in we mind’s they are while run TOO.
that give a gift more light’s to people ( البته هر چه کنی به خود کنی )
This is important everyone to do work that he/she creation for it ,otherwise:
ما وقع لم یقصد و ما قصد لم یقع
For example , shohada they were creation to fall in love
Lover invisible’s and love so much inner being شعله ور شد that to flame
That finished inner being ,منیت thay were run TOO.
That finished inner being ,منیت thay were run TOO.
They یه راست to flap the wing’s toward beloved they were creation for to reach .

Dear Haji , Miniature, Leila, Baharnarenj , Branch of Olive , Suzi and other companions
First of all I should really express my pleasure to see you, Haji and miniature, from other mountains with your precious Ganj Naames. The higher I climb , the more interesting stories I am finding. I am really proud of having in hame Hamrahe noor whom LEILA enjoys being with, as well.

Then , let’s have a look at this picture drawn by Farshchian, you can see yourselves (HAMRAHAN-E-NOOR) trying to follow Noor to reach the source of Divine , God. We are all struggling to know ourselves and our life and Our beautiful God. To fulfill this desire, we Certainly need to struggle, to climb to the peak of mountains (if you see in picture, all hands are going up to the sky to reach NOOR) . This meaningful struggling to know our BEING is surely magnificent.
HAALA , I want to say my Dard-e-Dels :
Dear Haji, I have passed by that Mentioned mosque for 9 months, twice a week. Although I could walk along other side of street, I preferred to walk from that side near the mosque to hear what they are saying and how they are feeling. Before thinking of any thing , I started imagining that poor guy’s life (HISTORY) from the very first of his/her birth that how much s/he was Aziz (like my lovely nephew , Koorosh whom my family and I love ) and when s/he was grown up , how much s/he was concerned with making a comfortable life ready for their dearest ones, and NOW the only people’s worry who have come to mosque for his/her death is “how they are going to go back home and with whom Ta inke bishtar they see each other” , like the friendly Gathering that Haji mentioned. I was feeling sorry when I saw those people who were sad for just a few minutes but not more than that, without thinking about themselves “why are they Running and for what and have they ever thought about their own Maraseme Khatm ( God forbidden)?” the more I saw those people’s indifference , the more I thought of these Questions “ what is happening to us , Is death going to be forgotten or are we thinking it just happened to that POOR guy but not to us?” My father says always to me “ it is Mostahab for Mo’mens to go to graveyard in order to STOP for a while and think why and for what they are running” and whenever we go to Beheshte Zahra I try to keep myself away from the philosophy of modernity as Branch of Olive is complaining about and find my self in this strange life and after death , KE ALBATE, I had rarely felt such things while I did observing people in front of Amirabad mosque. As miniature said “ Nemidoonam vaghean che serriye...”
In light of what Miniature reminded me of (100zaban’s story about her Aghajoon), I am really concerned with making مثني with people around me to learn more things and have my own Ganj Name instead of having lots of properties which are not Mandegar , AT ALL.
Thank you ALLLLLL especially BaharNarenj whose challengeable story helped us speak more and moreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee……………..

dear baharnarenge
Dear BAHANARENGE
Don't tired for long running.I am very glad for saying this means from you. Because it is a social problem for presence generation,I think more of the youth generation are tired .they as you feel, they are running , but don't know why. They don't satisfy for this running ,because they don't decided.by ourselves.
First of all , I think ,as said Leila, running is good , but running with goal.
Therefore , running isn't difficult, but, as saying HAJI, running with head down is problem.It's problem that , we don't know who has asked us to run or what we are running after.
]In the challenge with HAJI, about this sentence ", there are times that others want us to run for them", I want say ., it's nesseseary alittle we attention to reason of this problem . I don't know that are you read past my wrote about nostalgey or no. (of course , excuse me for it's hard text). In that wrote , I appointed that more of the difficult return to philosophy of modernity. It is connected with a chain of discussion in the social science.
In fact , in this philosophy , the west tried , changed human sight to world and being. They tried destroyed the God from human life .In the base , world life or material life , become goal of human. Then , was'nt seen to human as a total, and shaped world thought . with simple language ,I want say , more of difficult is beginning since appearance machinism . and shaped industrial world. And so, human obeyed from this philosophy, and industrial conquering all of the dimentions human life. therefore we located in the process that the others determined for us , why and what
running(Reference to HAJI"S RUNNING))
if you noticed to movie of Charley Chapplin that called new age, he shows, difficult of human in the modern age.
In industrial world. He shows patient of human in the new age that called ALIENATION,means , human changed to tools and he is working , thinking as the same is wanting is capitalism system.
In this system , graduation , economy , politic ,culture and all of things, that are tools for improvement of human, change to aim, and by this way , human that was the goal of created , has forgotten .Today , so we are following from this thought. And education, and certainly study in the university, in the recent decade,determined by characteristic new world no by anxious and use of human. And now we are in the location that you see and we are wandering.
But on the other hand , as I said in the wrote of nostalghey , I think is happen one revoluotion.. When you received that saying "WHY" it is a good movement. It can help you for good running. I believe , that's right , you have running fast , but by reason , you have received ., soon and soon , that , you say WHY " and you know must to look at life deeply, And then you are looking for PHILOSOPHY OF LIFE.
Don't tired for long running.I am very glad for saying this means from you. Because it is a social problem for presence generation,I think more of the youth generation are tired .they as you feel, they are running , but don't know why. They don't satisfy for this running ,because they don't decided.by ourselves.
First of all , I think ,as said Leila, running is good , but running with goal.
Therefore , running isn't difficult, but, as saying HAJI, running with head down is problem.It's problem that , we don't know who has asked us to run or what we are running after.
]In the challenge with HAJI, about this sentence ", there are times that others want us to run for them", I want say ., it's nesseseary alittle we attention to reason of this problem . I don't know that are you read past my wrote about nostalgey or no. (of course , excuse me for it's hard text). In that wrote , I appointed that more of the difficult return to philosophy of modernity. It is connected with a chain of discussion in the social science.
In fact , in this philosophy , the west tried , changed human sight to world and being. They tried destroyed the God from human life .In the base , world life or material life , become goal of human. Then , was'nt seen to human as a total, and shaped world thought . with simple language ,I want say , more of difficult is beginning since appearance machinism . and shaped industrial world. And so, human obeyed from this philosophy, and industrial conquering all of the dimentions human life. therefore we located in the process that the others determined for us , why and what
running(Reference to HAJI"S RUNNING))
if you noticed to movie of Charley Chapplin that called new age, he shows, difficult of human in the modern age.
In industrial world. He shows patient of human in the new age that called ALIENATION,means , human changed to tools and he is working , thinking as the same is wanting is capitalism system.
In this system , graduation , economy , politic ,culture and all of things, that are tools for improvement of human, change to aim, and by this way , human that was the goal of created , has forgotten .Today , so we are following from this thought. And education, and certainly study in the university, in the recent decade,determined by characteristic new world no by anxious and use of human. And now we are in the location that you see and we are wandering.
But on the other hand , as I said in the wrote of nostalghey , I think is happen one revoluotion.. When you received that saying "WHY" it is a good movement. It can help you for good running. I believe , that's right , you have running fast , but by reason , you have received ., soon and soon , that , you say WHY " and you know must to look at life deeply, And then you are looking for PHILOSOPHY OF LIFE.

Power of farsi literature
Years and years, our teachers tried and tried that made a pride of nation by teaching the geography and history, but they never could, but passion's story about alvand could made a incomparable PRIDE OF NATION. Really
سخن کز دل بر اید لاجرم بر دل نشیند.
When I studied this story , I was fool of feeling in every paragraph. I saw in the sentence by sentence spirit and greatness of Iran. In fact in this story
Very beautiful mixed together Geography and history and I saw Iran , in one way mohassereh sodeh by it's montains ,and from other way , above world
In the first paragraph, I felt we are a civilized nation and we have ancient culture that it's representative is Ibnesina .
In the second paragraph , when PASSION talking about attack and ruins in hamadan and when she says : That was important that we weren't knocked out against problems, shaped for me , legendary that name used to be IRAN.
And at last, when I am studying of the end paragraph , have made for us feeling of social solidarity. In fact passion by the best metaphor connected together ours and Iran.
I think if we must write GANGE NAMEH, then we have a great responsibility. And this responsibility beginning from BUS STOP, means we need to a thought deeply.
Exactly GANGE NAMEH remind for me SIMORGH in the MANTEGH _AL _TEIR of ATTAR ,that learn us , The real way of flying.
Therefore if we want GANGENAMEH change to treasures ,we must try and try for more knowing and directly thinking.
In fact GANGENAMEH is history of resistance of heroically and courageously standing and it is history of precious culture that consistently and moment by moment we are writing it.

Touching Death... Again...
Yep I totally caught the part about the pauses which we miss in life, consequently missing out the reviews and scrutiny which is absolutely necessary if we want to taste some parts of life to its extreme...
Anyway regarding death and all Haji's concerns about how we will all be soon forgetton once we've bitten the dust! I remember 100 zabaan once saying how after Aghajoon's death everyone would talk about him and laugh and review all the great times they had together and all the great things he had taught them which they would live by for life, how his presence could be felt even though his body was no longer around... His memory made everyone so happy that if a third party were to watch this happy family laughing over their dead I mean laughing while they were talking about a dear one who had recently been lost that third party would think these people were crazy... anyway mikhaam begaam you don't have to be much mourned for to be remembered... chejoori mishe vaaghean ye adam bad az marg ham injoori hozooresh zende bashe as if he is still alive plucking flowers from parks and... Yani ye adam ke maybe he was only known by his own little comfortable family lives on for so long after death...
Nemidoonam vaghean che serriye...
Now consider celebrities for instance although they were known by tons of people at their own time once they pass away no matter how famous they were while alive it only takes a maximum of a year for their memories to fade for ever (of course with some exceptions). Rasoul Molla Gholi pooro ke yadetoone? Didin azaad saziye khorramshahr gozasht ye yad azash nashod? Naser Abdollahi ki bood?! Sedaye bi Sedaye Farhado ki shanid? Aslan vaghti zende bood mishnakhtish ya mesle man vaghti mord taze fahmidi ki bood? Jafaar Bozorgi, Hossein Panahi, Jamile Sheykhi, Poopak Goldarre, Fazlollahe Arvandi (this person doesn't even exist I made him up myself but how were you gonna notice!?) and on and on and on and on...
Moral of the story? Well I'll leave that to you...

MORE ON STOP RUNNING
Besmehi Taala
Dear All salamalykom va rahmatollah
I saw a movie called "Mrs. Doubtfire" few times, some years ago. There was a scene in this movie where Robin Williams, the actor, when he was moving a stack of films from one place to another as his job, stopped and asked a person on his side, whom he did not know was his boss, something like this "Have you ever taught about pausing your life's movie frames, and asked yourself is this what you want to be or meant to be?", using movie frames which were related to his job.
We are all RUNNING all the time and in our community only one of us noticed that and made it an issue for herself or later for some of us. When our life is considered as a movie, God knows what we will see and notice if we just pause, stop RUNNING, for few minutes and WATCH and THINK!
Some times when I go home from my work I pass by a mosque in Amirabad on the other side of Tehran University dormitory. The scene there is like a famous scene of Indian movies where bunch of people hit each other with all kinds of un conventional weapons (swords, chains, large stones, ...). Movie makers from India are very careful about how much they spend in their movies and that is why you see the same people fighting in different movies. If you just pause in front of the mosque and watch, you would almost always witness the same scene, like Indian movies, of course with different actors. Black dressed crowd in the alley in front of the mosque. Some people standing in front of the entrance of the mosque with their heads down a bit, with red eyes and sadness in their faces. Bunch of white gladiola flowers with black ribbons, and the rest of the actors, men and women, standing in the alley chatting, laughing and talking about good times they had together some time ago. These occasions makes it possible for friends and relatives who do not get much chance and time to see each other have a friendly gathering. The lowest ranking (siahie lashkar) star in this movie scene is a DECIVED. He/she is not playing an important role. Poor guy has definitely RAN all his life as we did. I have told my sons, I can picture you guys, when I am a DECIVED character, as being at the center of attention laughing and enjoying yourselves!. Your red eyes, black dresses, and sadness fades faster than you can imagine. Let’s pause our lives’ movie for few seconds, watch it carefully, and think if this is what we want from our lives! I can imagine myself when I am put in my final home to rest, THINKING why I RAN with my head down all my life. The good part though is that I have finally stopped running, “AKHEISH”.

And this subject is very satisfactory for me.
I with read friends writing could (be ghole weeping willow) to listen to peoples stories in order to analyze what they say. for example:

RUNNING
Besmehi Taala
Dear Baharnarenj salamalykom va rahmatollah
You are not alone in the race track! I always enjoyed watching football but could never play well myself. I remember as a teenager I was chosen to play football in my highschool team just because they could not find enough people to play the game. They asked me where do you like to play and I said I like to play as forward. few minutes later I got the ball and started running and dribbling with my head down. I was a fast runner and ran and ran. I could hear those watching the game shouting loudly! I could not understand what they were saying and kept running with my head down. Soon I found out I am running without the ball. The goal keeper stole the ball infront of me and I was still running! We may run up and down Alvand again and again with our heads down without knowing where we are, or without stopping and watching the scenery and enjoy it. We don't even ask ourselves why we are running, who has asked us to run, or what we are running after? Are we running because we have decided ourselves or someone else like our parents want us to run? There are times that others want us to run for them!
