In Middle Eastern and Islamic lore, the jinn are associated with dreams. As subtle, invisible creatures they were treated as a separate race of beings and as a type of spirit-life.

A thread on jinn and dreams-

 Jinn were said to have a special capacity to psychically influence humans through whisperings. These could fill the mind of people with doubt, fear, and lust

They could also sway the dreams of humans.
Some jinn like Kabus were described as a type of winged shadow which stalks humans at nighttime.

Slipping in through cracks, he perches on your chest causing paralysis as his icy fingers seep into the mind inducing nightmares and terror.
Meanwhile Qarinah, a jinn queen, uses her sexuality to influence dreams.

Appearing before the unsuspecting she penetrates the mind with lust, causing wet dreams, and draining her victims of their vitality.
Qarinah as a type of succubus, draws heavily from older Jewish lore on Lilith.

Qarinah is also linked to the legends of King Solomon.
The qareen, a jinn-companion each of us has, is said to cause angry dreams and to try to lead people astray or into temptation through dreams.
Jinn who fell in love with humans would visit their paramours in their sleep, arranging dreamy trysts in a realm of mist.
As subtle creatures, the jinn were connected to the hidden realms and thus one could meet them in dreams.

There are charms and invocations which can be used to arrange dream meet ups. Such meetings were used for the purposes of knowledge, to enter pacts, or for sex.
Jinn dreams were generally described as disruptive and having a deleterious effect on health.

Various remedies were used to treat them.
One could place a cup of water near the bedside to cool the hot influence of the fiery jinn.

Recitation of the Qur’an is also common with Surah Naas, Falaq, and Ayatul Kursi said before bed-time.
Traditional healers also use various herbal baths to remove jinn influence and craft talismans to be worn on the body during sleep
Detecting the influence of jinn in dreams is tricky.

Sudden temperature changes, uncharacteristic visions, and phantom smells were all generally seen as markers of their presence.
Sages interpreted jinn in dreams as having special meanings.

Ibn Serin advised if you see yourself turning into a jinn it means you’ve begun to believe your own lies, or will develop bad qualities.
If you do battle with a jinn in your dreams it means you are righteous.

If you see a jinn enter your house in a dream it means thieves are coming, and if you meet a jinn who appears pious then you will gain knowledge and become a leader.
The jinn could also be deliberately invoked to enter a person’s dreams.

If someone breaks an oath or promise, the offended party could take it up with the jinn who will then enter the dreams of the person and harass them until they make good their promise.
In turn jinn familiars could teach a mage how to enter the dreams of others in order to influence them.

The jinn kings of Mercury and the Moon were said to be skilled in dream magic.
The jinn queen Bidukh could also teach one to influence dreams, but you had to first enter into a pact with her.

When she appears in the dreams of humans, she usually is seen standing near a shoreline
Other jinn prefer taking the form of talking animals when they appear in dreams.

A talking cat or talking dog is most common.
The relationship between jinn and dreams sits as the intersection of mysticism, magic, and early medicine.

The treatment of disturbed sleep and the noting of significant dreams were part of a body of medieval psychoanalytic and mental health practices
Jinn and dreams are also deeply connected with communion with spiritual life, with invisible forces that exist alongside humans

Whether deemed disruptive or auspicious it was a reminder for many Muslim thinkers that we are not alone.

We'll continue to explore the jinn in future threads

#Thread When Mahabali Bali, who drew half the power of the enemy, faced Hanumanji.


The Ramayana has an interesting episode of the war of Hanuman and Bali. This passage offers many lessons. No matter how strong a person becomes, no matter how rich he should be, he should not boast.

Bali had the boon that whoever comes before him for war, half of his strength will be absorbed in Bali. On the basis of this boon, Bali beat the big warriors to dust.

Bali used to challenge people here and there. One day, he was screaming in the forest that who can beat me.

Hanumanji was doing penance in the same forest and was reciting the name of his adorable Lord Rama. Bali's shouting disrupted his austerity. He said to Bali, Vanar Raj you are very strong, no one can beat you, but why are you screaming like this?

One key element of the Islamic intellectual tradition is the commentary. Commentaries on the Qurʼan (tafsīr) began early in Islamic history, but from about the 12th or 13th century, well into the 19th, commentaries on other scholarly texts became extremely common. -jm


Usually a commentary is called a sharḥ, and a supercommentary (i.e. a commentary on a commentary) is called a ḥāshiyah. Sometimes you get all the way up to a fourth- or fifth-level supercommentary. -jm


Sometimes it's hard to even tell what the "core text" is, because even a very famous text that's the core of many commentaries might present itself as an abridgement or comment on something even earlier. -jm


Commentaries might serve multiple purposes: to explain obscure grammar or vocabulary, to dig into particular legal cases, etc. Even to show why the core text is wrong. Eventually you get some Ottoman Turkish commentaries that translate Persian poems and then comment on them. -jm


Authors of commentaries often mark quotes from the core text by key words like "qawluhu" ("what he said") and manuscripts often emphasize this by writing these words in red or putting a line over the quoted text, so you can figure out who is talking. -jm

I'm gonna do my other star wars thread tomorrow, which will primarily be me yelling at a @RowanKaiser-shaped strawman for calling the First Order and The Resistance "cosplayers who the rest of the galaxy has to deal with"

the deal w/the New Republic, the First Order, and the Resistance is very weird and complex and I actually take issue with how Story Group frames the actual conflict.

pre-TFA stuff is presented as a "cold war" between the New Republic and the remnants of the Empire that form the First Order, which 100% makes sense.

But they frame the First Order's attack on the Hosnian system and the subsequent battle that takes place across TFA and TLJ as a full on war when it's very clearly a coup. A war implies at least equal standing, but the First Order completely wrecks shop and takes over the galaxy.

ok never mind I'm fucking doing this now.

The First Order fleet we see in TLJ is *not* the entire fleet of the First Order (I don't even think Starkiller Base was their main base of operations honestly, it couldn't have been considering they were operating out of Wild Space)

Has this man been concealing his true identity?

Is this man a supposed 'dead' Seal Team Six soldier?

Witness protection to be kept safe until the right moment when all will be revealed?!

Who ELSE is alive that may have faked their death/gone into witness protection?

Are these "golden tickets" going to lead to their ultimate undoing?

Hello Dear Tweeples!

It’s Siddhars time of the week! Last week I shared story of Guru (Machamuni or Yogi Matsyendranath), this week I bring you information on his Shishya.

#Thread on Gorakanathar Siddhar.

@LostTemple7


His origin story is interesting, though I couldn’t verify it’s authenticity, so not sharing the story here. He’s shishya of Machamuni Siddhar and also learnt from Agasthiya Siddhar.

@HelloNNewman @RajiIndustani @Kishoreciyer1

Unlike other Siddhars, he is depicted as either with a Tiger or seated & wearing Tiger skin. While I couldn’t find any explanation for this. My interpretation is as follows:

Tiger is a predator that lurks around and attacks unexpectedly.


Our 5 indriyas and 5 vikitis also similar to Tiger, they lurk around and attacks our thoughts when we’re least expecting. Gorakkar is said to have mastered these aspects, thus to denote this, he shown with Tiger.

@Itishree001 @VarierSangitha @jananisampath

Gorakanathar or Gorakshnath (as he’s known in the Nath Sampraday) is celebrated Guru in both Northern and Southern part of India. He’s one of the NavNath in Nath Sampraday and also 18 Siddhars of Tamil tradition. During his life, he’s travelled Indian subcontinent extensively +

कुंडली में 12 भाव होते हैं। कैसे ज्योतिष द्वारा रोग के आंकलन करते समय कुंडली के विभिन्न भावों से गणना करते हैं आज इस पर चर्चा करेंगे।
कुण्डली को कालपुरुष की संज्ञा देकर इसमें शरीर के अंगों को स्थापित कर उनसे रोग, रोगेश, रोग को बढ़ाने घटाने वाले ग्रह


रोग की स्थिति में उत्प्रेरक का कार्य करने वाले ग्रह, आयुर्वेदिक/ऐलोपैथी/होमियोपैथी में से कौन कारगर होगा इसका आँकलन, रक्त विकार, रक्त और आपरेशन की स्थिति, कौन सा आंतरिक या बाहरी अंग प्रभावित होगा इत्यादि गणना करने में कुंडली का प्रयोग किया जाता है।


मेडिकल ज्योतिष में आज के समय में Dr. K. S. Charak का नाम निर्विवाद रूप से प्रथम स्थान रखता है। उनकी लिखी कई पुस्तकें आज इस क्षेत्र में नए ज्योतिषों का मार्गदर्शन कर रही हैं।
प्रथम भाव -
इस भाव से हम व्यक्ति की रोगप्रतिरोधक क्षमता, सिर, मष्तिस्क का विचार करते हैं।


द्वितीय भाव-
दाहिना नेत्र, मुख, वाणी, नाक, गर्दन व गले के ऊपरी भाग का विचार होता है।
तृतीय भाव-
अस्थि, गला,कान, हाथ, कंधे व छाती के आंतरिक अंगों का शुरुआती भाग इत्यादि।

चतुर्थ भाव- छाती व इसके आंतरिक अंग, जातक की मानसिक स्थिति/प्रकृति, स्तन आदि की गणना की जाती है


पंचम भाव-
जातक की बुद्धि व उसकी तीव्रता,पीठ, पसलियां,पेट, हृदय की स्थिति आंकलन में प्रयोग होता है।

षष्ठ भाव-
रोग भाव कहा जाता है। कुंडली मे इसके तत्कालिक भाव स्वामी, कालपुरुष कुंडली के स्वामी, दृष्टि संबंध, रोगेश की स्थिति, रोगेश के नक्षत्र औऱ रोगेश व भाव की डिग्री इत्यादि।
