  • Khidr as semi antithesis

  • Failed colonial modernization of Hindko speakers

    I am a Hindkowan Karlal, and what is common to Sikhism, Buddhism and Islam is their rejection of intellectual pride and sexual revolution, that’s why British failed to modernize us.

  • Can Sikhs save Punjabi and Hindko culture

    عالميت کے دور میں اسلام ہی مشرقی تہذیب کو بچا سکتا ہے In era of globalization, only Islam can defend Eastern cultures. Indian Sikhs have melted with Bollywood and Hollywood.

    I acknowledge Sikh contributions to Punjabi culture.

  • Hindko hybrid universalism to resist Eastern Aryan fascism

  • Transparency of Eastern secularists?

    Peter Bell Fight or flight or freeze is how animals react to threats. Eastern secularists want to become rich but do not have license of prosperity gospel nor IQ required for white collar crimes so they resort to crude forms of corruption. And, both nomian and antinomian orthodoxy is generally not tempted towards golden calf so far. My own father came back from US and lived a very authentic and transparent life in East.

  • Transcending biochemicals

    If we realize we are not entitled to happiness and even happiness and sadness are just acting biochemicals, we may become happier in long term.

  • Paradox of pious dictatorial pope

    To Avellina Ballestri a roman catholic: In Islam, we have the paradox of a pious dictatorial pope called Mu’awiyah. Anti traditionalists think his autocracy is obvious, but there are fideistic Sufis who think he is the mystery of conservative culture who deserves emotional attachment due to his personal piety because the alternative is Godless socialists. For the same reason I feel uncomfortable around liberal unitarian Christians. I learned that Christadelphians are conservative unitarians but still millenia of rich history does not compare to greek rootlessness. I would be happy if I met an Arian Catholic but that needs both richness of tradition and richness of scripture and most modern westerners are not ready for it yet. But this is the most honest and tolerant form of fideistic trinitarisnism I may have even witnessed. In a world of radical modernity, Catholicism is most radical traditionalism, but maybe in 22nd century, people may be better able to get over current polarized anti centrism towards optimal centrism of Islam, which represents not just a Protestant Catholic prima scriptura optimization but even more fundamental Judeao-Christian optimization through the glory of Ishmael peace be upon him whom One God hears.
