The End of Conviction: The Age of the Wise

Updated: Jul 4, 2021

Anatolia Sufism’s philosophy emphasized that Haqq had announced that it had two ‘faces’, Seer and Hearer. Yet, at the same time, He announced that ‘He has no similar and He is One’.



Anatolia wises says, ‘It was necessary to use these expressions in the physical plan, the world of assumptions, so that He was easily understood. The concept of Haqq being One in the Moment had to be conveyed with opposites in this way for it to be easily understood and spelled in the world of beings.’

Anatolia Mysticism says: Belief is a route that must be abandoned when the time comes. Belief is an education system that is explained with symbols, in disguise, for only those that can understand, and for the others that cannot understand, to abide by. It is limited with certain rules, conditions and numbers. Yet, when the time comes the person must abandon that road.

In Islamic’s understanding, Obscurity is a meaning of the One. The One is obscure. The one that describes the One, can not describe Him. The one that understands the One, can not understand Him. The one that talks about the One, can not explain Him fully and certainly.


The mortal’s reason, assumptions and interpretations, cannot make attributes and names ‘free from all’, in other words, separate them. Only Haqq Himself can separate Himself and Free Himself from all identifications. The one that frees the wise from mortals, meaning separates, and the one that elevates and increases its state and level, is Haqq Himself.


The mortals’ reason continuously makes similes, find similarities. Because he cannot go beyond assumptions and interpretations, since the beginning of humanity, he chose the route of finding the Creator similar to things. Because what is found similar is imperfect, Haqq is gayr, separate from all similarities or similes.

Haqq takes form in the minds of believers based on their assumptions and interpretations. Yet, in the hearts and spiritual hearts of the wise ones, it manifests with its Truth far from all similes and separations.


The mortal, with his reason, assumes the shadow that forms as a result of the sun reflecting on beings is truth. The wise ones, on the other hand, know what the truth is with their hearts by looking at the sun. The only thing that is binding is the forms that are established in the minds by the ‘similes and separation’ that are revealed by the belief and philosophy teachings.


Haqq can never fit into the tight forms established by the belief and philosophical systems. Those forms are the ‘presumptions’ in the minds of the mortals. There are as many understandings of Haqq that fit in forms and take shape in the minds as the beliefs and thoughts of people, as the number of people in the world. The Truth is far from these.


For this reason, it is essential for the mortal to become free of the forms that are formed by all beliefs, convictions and philosophical thoughts on the road to awakening. On the road of awakening, ‘purification and abandonment’ are the most important, obligatory, esoteric works for the mortal.
