Descrição completa
This video presents a detailed analysis of the creation of the universe as described in the ancient Hermetic text, Corpus Hermeticum I (Poimandres). The speaker examines how Hermes Trismegistus is recognized as a prophet across multiple traditions, including Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and Sabianism, often identified with figures like Enoch and Idris. The core of the talk focuses on the vision of Poimandres, detailing the emergence of light from darkness, the role of the Logos, and the formation of the cosmos through seven planetary rulers. Significant comparisons are drawn between these ancient concepts and Islamic theology, specifically referencing verses from the Holy Quran and narrations from Imam Ali and Imam Sadiq regarding the nature of the world, the mind, and ignorance. Furthermore, the lecture highlights striking similarities between Hermetic cosmology and the teachings of Imam Ahmad Al-Hassan. It discusses the concept of man as a divine image sent into matter out of love, the journey of the soul through planetary zones after death, and the distinction between those who possess true intellect (Mind) and those who remain mindless. The session concludes with a communal recitation of a Hermetic prayer and a synthesis of these ancient wisdoms with the doctrine of the Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light.
