Where Do Our Thoughts Really Come From?

from The School of Divine Mysteries - The Mahdi Has Appeared

What if the Night Journey of Muhammad ﷺ is connected to an ancient mystery that predates Islam? In this episode, we explore the surprising parallels between the Emerald Tablet of Hermes and the Night Journey (al-Isrāʾ wa-l-Miʿrāj)—two traditions separated by centuries, cultures, and language, yet pointing toward a shared underlying reality. Through symbolism, ascent, descent, and the movement between heaven and earth, this discussion invites the listener to reconsider how divine knowledge is transmitted, where true wisdom originates, and how revelation appears across different ages.
