© 2024 Sufi Reverberations: A Podcast by Anab Whitehouse
Description
Previously, the Sufi Reverberations Podcast featured a poem, a story, a meditation, and a musical interlude that gave expression to one Sufi's reflections concerning the mystical dimension of Islam. The tenor of the Podcast has changed, and instead of presenting the sort of usual formatting that was noted earlier in this description, the Sufi Reverberation Podcast will give expression to commentaries of various kinds that explore a variety of different topics. The length of each program will vary, and, in addition, such episodes will be released as time permits rather than at regular intervals. The commentaries continue to be produced through the Interrogative Imperative Institute where the process of asking questions becomes, God willing, an artful journey toward solutions for life.

This podcast provides a brief overview of various ways of engaging the notions of: States, stations, and stages in conjunction with the mystical journey or suluk to which the mystical dimension of Islam gives expression. The Sufi path is neither linear nor static, but entails a nuanced and diverse dynamic which gives expression to a complex interaction involving: (1) the capacity or fitra of a seeker; (2) the nature of the practices observed (as well as the quality through which those practic...

Episode 13 of the Sufi Reverberations Podcast offers some critical reflections concerning the issue of shari'ah. It is based on materials from the book: "Shari'ah: A Muslim's Declaration of Independence, 2nd Edition.
If one were to characterize scientific methodology, one might indicate that it consists of the following sorts of procedures or protocols: (1) empirical observation; (2) the use of instrumentation; (3) recursive methodology; (4) objectivity; (5) a community of expertise; (6) experimental replication, and (7) reliable prediction. My contention is that authentic mysticism gives expression to all of the aforementioned aspects of scientific methodology, and the following discussion seeks to provi...

Once again, I intend to leap into the mysterious complex of dimensionalities through which we all are manifested and, in the process, travel in a different direction from earlier podcasts, both recent as well as those past episodes that are more distant in time. Moreover, unlike previous podcasts, the offerings that – moving forward – are, God willing, to be presented here should be quite brief – a sort of minimalist motif in which less could serve as more. However, despite, their brevity, su...
Although, for the most part, the Sufi Reverberations Podcast is not currently releasing any new episodes -- although there some occasional, relatively sporadic postings made through that portal -- this special message has been posted in order to inform you that Anab Whitehouse has joined together with Masake Kane from Senegal to collaborate on a new podcast entitled: Hearts Across the Waters. You can find the first several episodes of the new podcast at: https://www.heartsacrossthewaters...
Although I have covered and explored in some detail the extended arguments surrounding the issue of a constitutional standing for people that is entirely independent of both federal and state institutions of governance through other video documentaries that appear on this channel page of DrAnab, I realize that many people might only view or listen to small segments of those longer documentaries and, therefore, actually fail to grasp what is at the heart of those longer videos and, as a result...
Relatively recently, Alan Dershowitz, an American criminal and constitutional lawyer, has claimed that government has a right to forcibly vaccinate individuals in order to protect the health of the public in general. I do not believe that his claim is tenable, and while elucidating what I consider to be the errors in his way of thinking will take a bit of time to delineate, nonetheless, I believe the exercise will be worth the time and effort that are required to concentrate and reflect on th...
