Assalam Alaikum,
Have you seen the new Marvel movie Dr.Strange yet? (If not, don’t worry, no spoilers, just a little nugget of wisdomā¦)
It’s about a doctor of Western medicine who’s in a terrible accident that Western medicine can’t help him recover from.
As a result, he goes to the East in search of answers and healing & eventually finds Kamataj, the center of healing he’d been searching for.
After a little scuffle outside, he eventually strolls up to the door of Kamataj, with the typical, cynical arrogance of a Western doctor (sorry doctors, but you know what I mean!).
Just before he steps foot through the door to what will be a completely new understanding of life and a genuine Paradigm Shift, his seasoned companion gives him a little nugget of advice.
This little nugget is easy to dismiss or ignore, but it contains the essence of Dr Strange’s problem – and the essence of the problem most of my students have when I share with them the secrets on how to master the nafs:
“Forget everything you think you know about the world.”
Dr. Strange scoffs, ‘Riiiiightā¦’, as he dismisses him. And then arrogantly walks in. 5 minutes later he had nothing left to be arrogant about.
Why is this nugget so important?
Because your ego is everything you think you know about the world.
There is an Intelligence inside of you that is infinitely greater that your intellect. Let that be your guide.
If you’re ready to embark on your own epic journey of self-mastery, then jump out of your astral-form and float over to this web-page: www.mamoonyusaf.com/lp/ii
Peace, Love & Blessings.

P.S. Keep an eye-out. Tomorrow I’m sending you another nugget of wisdom from Dr. Strange. Seriously, Marvel should put me on their pay-rollā¦
