تعليقا على مقالة ليلى احمد فى ردها على مقالة منى الطحاوى :


تتهم ليلى احمد، الطحاوى بأنها اساءت فهم قصة اليفة رفعت وتبنى ادعاءها من خلال معرفتها الشخصية لاليفة رفعت ، وتصفها بأنها انسانة متدينة وترتدى الحجاب ولهذا من غير الممكن ان تقصد اليفة رفعت فى قصتها مافهمته الطحاوى بأن الدين يستخدم كوسيلة لقمع المراة سواءا بفرض قيود باسمه او بغرس فكرة ان التسامى على الرغبات هو من صميم الدين .

كل ما فى قصة اليفة رفعت يشير الى ذلك ، النداء الى الصلاة الذى يقطع ممارسة العلاقة الحميمة بين البطلة وزوجها ، اسم القصة نفسه ، وانا كقارئ عادى ابنى رأيى بناءا على قراءتى للقصة وليس معرفتى للمؤلف ، فاذا رأت ليلى احمد ان اليفة رفعت لم تقصد ذلك بناءا على معرفتها الشخصية بها، اذن فالعيب هنا لا يقع على منى الطحاوى فى فهمها للمغزى بل على اليفة رفعت نفسها لاستخدامها ادوات ومفردات تفيد هذا المعنى الواضح.

ومن قال ان الدين لا يستخدم فى قمع رغبات البشر فى بلادنا كما كان يستعمل من قبل فى اوروبا ، فالمرأة فى اغلب الاحوال لا تفصح عن رغباتها الجنسية حتى وان كانت متزوجة لان فى ذلك اشارة --من وجهة نظر المجتمع -- لانحرافها وان اخلاقها ليست على المستوى ، ودائما ما تجد من ينصحك بالصلاة والصوم للتغلب على الرغبات الجنسية حتى وان كانت مشروعة 

اما ادعاء ان المجتمع المصرى وخاصة المرأة المصرية هى متدينة بدليل السيدات والفتيات اللاتى نزلن التحرير يرتدين الحجاب ،فاحب ان اوجه نظر ليلى احمد ان الحجاب مظهر اجتماعى فى مصر 
والبلاد العربية اكثر منه انه يرتدى عن تدين حقيقى او اقتناع
فهناك من يرتدين الحجاب ليتزوجن (او عشان ده اللى بيعجب الرجالة) او لان البيئة اللاتى يعشن فيها قد فرضت عليهن الحجاب وانا ازعم ان اكثر من 80%من السيدات لا يرتدين الحجاب عن اقتناع حقيقى ،وكما ذكرت فى تعليق اخر لى ،أن نساء السعودية يخلعن النقاب على الطائرة عندما يغادرن بلادهن 

والا فكيف تفسر ليلى احمد ان الاف الفتيات يرتدين الحجاب ويغطين شعرهن فى حين يرتدين البلوزات الضيقة والبنطلونات الجينز الاضيق ، هل التدين هو تغطية الشعر واظهار المؤخرة؟

كفانا مكابرة ومعاندة ، نعم الدين يستخدم فى قمع المرأة فى كل شئ والطحاوى احسنت فى عرض تلك الصورة 

اما باقى ماذكر فى مقال ليلى احمد فهو لا يستحق التعليق لانى لا اظنه له علاقة بمقالة الطحاوى اصلا

تعليقى على رد سامية الرزوقى على مقال منى الطحاوى



مقال سامية الرزوقى غير موضوعى بالمرة ،فلقد افردت نصف المقال للتعليق على الصور المستعملة فى مقال منى الطحاوى والتى تمثل صور امرأة عارية بطلاء اسود ، مدعية ان هذه الصور مهينة لمن يرتدين النقاب وان كنت لا ارى ذلك فى الصور ، فما تبادر فى ذهنى عندما رايت تلك الصور هو انها تمثل رغبة المجتمع الذكورى فى اخفاء المراة ووضع غطاء على عقلها قبل جسدها ،وادعاء الاستاذة سامية ان النساء يرتدين النقاب باختيارهن غير صحيح بدليل ان كثير من نساء السعودية يخلعن النقاب عندما يغادرن بلادهن

كل ما ذكر فى المقال هو كلام مفكك ولا يسرد اى دحض لما ذكرته منى الطحاوى ، فهى تارة تذكر ان مقال منى الطحاوى يخاطب القارئ الغربى بغير ان تفسر لنا هل ما ذكرته منى الطحاوى من حقائق مثبتة لوقائع تم فيها قمع المراة فى الدول العربية ، لا يثبت مدى الظلم الذى تتعرض له ام لا ، ان منى الطحاوى ذكرت احداث يستطيع اى قارئ فى اى مكان ان يفهم منها مدى الظلم الذى تتعرض له المرأة فى بلادنا السعيدة
وتارة اخرى تلقى بذنب التعرض لهذه المعاناة على المرحلة الاستعمارية وما تلاها من انظمة قمعية متناسية ان القمع لم يأت فى حق المراة من الانظمة الحاكمة بقدر ما طبق من المجتمع نفسه متخذا فى اغلب الاحيان غطاء الدين كمبرر لممارسة ذلك الظلم.

لا ادرى من اين جاءت سامية الرزوقى بفكرة ان سيدات مثل توكل كرمان ومريم الخواجة لا يمثلن المراة وانما هن مجرد افراد ، نعم هنافراد ولكنهن يمثلن المراةهذا بديهى،ان القمع الذى تتعرض له كل واحدة منهن يزيد ويتضاعف لمجرد انهن سيدات تجرأن على فعل ماهو مختلف عما الفه المجتمع الذكورى .


احب ان الفت نظر سامية الرزوقى و مايا ميكداشى ان الانظمة الحاكمة فى الشرق الاوسط ليست انظمة علمانية بالمرة ، ولا يمكن تصنيفها ايدولوجيا ، هى فقط انظمة قمعية ولكن مرة اخرى ليست تلك الانظمة هى المسئولة بالدرجة الاولى عن الظلم الذى تتعرض له المراة بل كما ذكرت انفا هو موروث اجتماعى بالدرجة الاولى

واخيرا ارى ان تكرار نقد-وهو نقد خاطئ- استعمال الصور العارية ذات الطلاء الاسود فى الصور لا يشير الا الى ان الرزوقى تنظر للمراة كمخلوق للجنس فقط فهى رات فقط جسدا عاريا وهى نظرة لا تختلف عن نظرى اى رجل شرقى اصيل

Staying True to You: 6 Steps to a More Honest Life --- By Martha Beck

One of my more embarrassing memories is the day in high school drama class when I was assigned to deliver the famous monologue in which Lady Macbeth loses her freaking mind. Bumbling my way through history's worst rendition of that scene, I suddenly understood why actors are always asking, "What's my motivation?" I had no idea how to portray Lady M because I couldn't imagine what the heck made her tick.

At the time, I blamed my abysmal acting skills, but now that I've lived many additional decades and watched 800,000 episodes of Law & Order, I realize my horrible performance wasn't entirely my fault. Lady Macbeth is incomprehensible because after years of secrets, lies, and manipulation, her mind is such a mess even she can't find her way around it. She lives in a private hell, and as she puts it, "Hell is murky." She's constantly scrubbing at her hands, but that doesn't help. Nothing is clear to her. Nothing is clean.

Though few of us are in Lady M's league when it comes to foul deeds, most of us at least occasionally act on motivations that are less than pure. We tell little lies to get people's approval, do things for acceptance that feel wrong-ish, soothe a friend's feelings not out of unsullied love but because we're hoping for a favor. To live a totally clean life is as rare in its own way as being a mad murderess. But even if we can't be completely pure, it's within our power to do what twisted sister Macbeth couldn't: clean up our act. Which is another way of saying welcome to the Agenda Cleanse.

Why an Agenda Cleanse Is Good Life Hygiene:


The problem with hiding your real motives is that you're essentially keeping a secret, and as neuroscientist David Eagleman has written,"The main thing that is known about secrets is that keeping them is unhealthy for the brain." When we begin to weave webs of deception, we need to expend enormous mental energy to prevent them from tangling. There's less brain power left over for solving real problems, and we start to falter in other areas of our lives.

The problems may even show up in our bodies: Secrets and lies can weaken our immune systems. They're also hell on rela­tionships, both personal and professional. People can feel the difference between a pure agenda (you kissing your baby) and a murky one (a politician kissing your baby). They find ulterior motives vaguely to intensely repulsive. As a result, impurely motivated actions tend to backfire. Lie for approval, and people disapprove. Try to control people, and you lose control. Pre­tend to be perfect, and you risk being caught by folks who'll abhor your pretense of perfection more than your imperfections themselves.

If, in light of all this, you're hesitant to do the Agenda Cleanse, I'll assume it's because you're either Lady Macbeth or Mother Teresa. Everyone else, please meet me at the next paragraph.

Agenda Cleanse Step 1: Pick an interaction, any 

interaction.


Think of something you plan to do in the 

upcoming hours or days that involves other 

people. It could be going to a coworker's

birthday party, putting in a day at the 

office, attending square-dancing class,

 whatever. We'll call this interaction activity X.

Step 2: Ask yourself the actor's question.


Keeping activity X in mind, ask yourself,

What's my motivation for doing this? Don't spit

 out the first facile answer that comes to mind 

(Um, I have to?). Give it real thought, and be 

brutally honest. Your clarity—maybe a little 

piece of your sanity—depends on it.

There might be several reasons you're planning 

to undertake activity X. Feel for the one

that's deepest. Maybe you'll be attending the 

 coworker's birthday party because you sort of

 want to be there but also to be polite, and

 mainly because you want cake. You may go to 

work to earn money, and to feel important, but

 primarily to prove your worth to your parents.

 Perhaps you square-dance partly for love of 

the music, partly to show off your new Frye 

boots, but mostly because your friends just 

keep hounding you until you go. Pick the 

motivation that feels most true, your real

 bedrock reason. 

Step 3: See if your real agenda aligns with 

your apparent agenda.


Now that you've identified your actual

 motivation, check to see whether you're making

 it clear or hiding it from others—and even 

yourself. Finish this statement, and don't hold 

back. Tell it like it is. 


I let myself and others think the real reason

 I'm doing activity X is

_______________________________________________.

To the extent that this answer is the same as

your answer in step 2, your agenda vis-á-vis 


activity X is transparent. If the two answers


are different, you're in hot water. Happily, I 


mean that in a good way.

Step 4: Clean your hidden agendas with an unbroken stream of truth.


Simply by stating your real agenda and admitting that it's different from the one you present to the world, you've already started getting clean. To keep the process going, consistently tell yourself the truth about your motivations and any deceptions you perpetrate. You won't change your behavior immediately, and that's fine. Just keep getting clearer inside by acknowledging where you're not being clear outside.

This means that as you wish your acquaintance a happy birthday, you remind yourself, I'm here for the cake. As you assure your boss you love your job, own the truth: This is pure b.s.—I need the paycheck. While do-si-do-ing, silently admit, I'm doing this only because I didn't have the guts to say no.

Sustained personal truth-telling will gradually cleanse your inner life. This, by the way, is what happens in good therapy: Each week a perceptive professional helps you admit to the real forces behind your actions. As you start to see your inner motivations more clearly, you begin relating differently to the world around you. This leads naturally to the next part of our cleanse.

Step 5: Allow your pure inner agenda to radiate outward.



Just as muddy motives leak, revealing impure agendas to the people we're trying to fool, a sustained clear agenda becomes ever more luminous to others. Even if you don't mean to change your behavior, your cleanse will begin shining truth on everything around you. This may disturb people whose motivations are still impure. Indeed, these people may become so alarmed that they try to pressure you back into insincerity.

In response, you can always go back to having crazy-making, murky agendas. Or you can keep cleaning up your act until folks around you either undertake their own cleanse or go away. One client told me, after an especially hidden-agenda-packed meeting, "I'm exhausted by my own hypocrisy." Once you start articulating such feelings, you'll stop doing things with impure agendas, slowly separating from people and events that are essentially environmental pollutants.

Of course, there are scenarios in which it isn't wise to take your true feelings public. But these scenarios, like Lady Macbeth, are truly insane: political dictatorships, prisons, reality shows featuring various populations of "real" housewives. People who live within such systems sustain impure agendas just to survive. As you become more honest with yourself, you'll know whether being more pure in your outward behavior is truly inadvisable or whether "I can't say what I really mean" is just another fib.

Step 6: Fill your life with clean, clear things.


I've noticed that as my clients begin speaking the truth to themselves more often, they grow increasingly accurate at spotting false agendas in others. This makes them safer in every situation.

Run frequent agenda cleanses, and you'll unconsciously steer yourself toward activities you truly love and people who truly love you. People will trust you, and you'll know whom to trust. The brain space that was tied up in conniving manipulation will be free for problem solving and creativity. Your energy will rise; your stress level will fall. You'll be happier and more at peace.

Macbeth tries to make this happen for his wife. He orders a doctor to "Cleanse....that perilous stuff which weighs upon the heart." The doctor, checking his records and noticing that psychiatry won't be invented for centuries, says, "Therein the patient must minister to himself." Agenda cleansing, you see, is an inside job. And I have nothing up my sleeve when I say I think you're just the person to do it.

-Five ways to fell less powerless By Deepak Chopra


Before talking about power, let's clarify what power isn't. It isn't a force that you use like a weapon to get your own way. It isn't a suppression of what you don't like about yourself to achieve a perfect ideal that doesn't exist in the first place. It isn't money, status, possessions, or any other material surrogate. There are countless people sitting in the lap of luxury who feel even more powerless than the average person does. This is so because the issues of power are all "in here," where you relate to yourself. Now we can address the five things that help conquer that feeling of powerlessness.

1. Stop giving away your power.
Becoming powerless doesn't happen in a single dramatic stroke, like the barbarian hordes breaking down your door and burning your house. It's a process, and for most people, the process is so gradual that they don't notice it. They are more than happy, in fact, to give away their power by degrees. Why? Because being powerless seems like an easy way to be popular, accepted, and protected.

Thus you are giving away your power when you please others in order to fit in. Or when you follow the opinions of the crowd. Or when you decide that others matter more than you do. Or when you let someone who seems to have more power take charge of you.

It can often seem right—or proper—to sit modestly in the background, holding accepted opinions, living for your children, or letting a controlling spouse run roughshod over you in order to keep the peace. In small and large ways, however, these kinds of decisions reduce your sense of self-worth, and without self-worth, you cannot rid yourself of your powerlessness.

2. Examine why it's "good" to be a victim.
Once you start chipping away at your self-worth, it's a short step to becoming a victim. I define being a victim as engaging in "selfless pain." In other words, by telling yourself that you don't really count, you can make the suffering you endure into a kind of virtue, as all martyrs do. It's "good" when you serve a higher spiritual purpose—or so some religion suggest but what if there is no higher purpose?

Most victims feel good about worrying all the time, but worry makes you far more vulnerable to bad things in general, since worry is so all-consuming that the mind isn't free and alert enough to tell real threats from imaginary ones. Worry feels like a protection—when it is exactly the opposite.

Victims find lots of other "good" reasons for their plight. They are forgiving of an abusive spouse, because forgiveness is considered spiritual. They enable an addict, because tolerance and acceptance of others is equally spiritual. But if you stand back, you’ll see that victims in such situations are deliberately bringing suffering upon themselves, which not only confirms their powerlessness, it encourages it to grow and grow. The victim is always being acted upon. There are enough abusers, addicts, rage-aholics, control freaks, and petty tyrants out there to drain the power from anyone who volunteers to play the role of victim.

Having given away too much of themselves, the first step for victims is to realize that their role is voluntary. They are not trapped by fate, destiny, or the will of God. Their role is a personal choice, and they can chose differently.


3. Develop your core self.
' 'Human beings are the only creatures who do not mature automatically. A baby chick has no choice but to turn into a chicken. But the world is full of people stuck in childhood and adolescence, no matter how old they happen to be. For us, to mature is a decision: Adulthood is an achievement, one that requires—and results in—personal power.

This can takes decades, but it starts with a vision of the "core self." This is the part of you that connects to reality, placing you at the center of experiences that you personally create. To have a core self is to be the author of your own story; it is the exact opposite of being a victim, who must live a life authored by others.

4. Align yourself with the flow of evolution, or personal growth.
Once you establish your core self as a goal, your path will unfold and you will evolve. This evolution is wobbly at first; everyone has at least some elements of ignorance and immaturity. But' 'thanks to free will, you can help guide your own evolution. The simple fact is that we all desire more and better things for ourselves. If those more and better things are good for our growth, then we are guiding our own positive and powerful evolution. In India they make a distinction between dharma and adharma. Dharma includes whatever naturally upholds life: happiness, truth, duty, virtue, wonder, worship, reverence, appreciation, nonviolence, love, self-respect. On the other hand, adharma consists of choices that do not support life naturally: anger, violence, fear, control, dogmatism, skepticism, unvirtuous acts, prejudice, addiction, intolerance, and unconsciousness in general.

For our purposes, dharma is the ultimate power. It easily supports you, a single individual. What is asked of you is that you honestly look at your everyday life and the choices you are making. Ask yourself how to increase the dharmic choices and decrease the adharmic ones.

5. Trust in a power that transcends everyday reality.
Nothing described so far will come true without a higher reality. For the moment, let's leave aside religion and any reference to God. Fortunately, to have even a speck of consciousness is to be connected to the finite consciousness that supports life, evolution, creativity, and intelligence. None of these things are accidental or a privilege handed out to the lucky few.

To use a metaphor, imagine that you are caught in a net. All nets have holes, so find one, and jump through it. I've known wives of abusive husbands who found a hole through, say, learning to paint. For them, it was an escape route, and as they made art, their thinking changed from "I am trapped and can do nothing" to "I must be worth more than I imagined, because look at this beautiful thing I created." Escape routes exist along the qualities hidden in consciousness. They include:

Creativity. Go beyond by discovery and exploration. This leads to insight. Your inner vision clears. You start to see glimmers of light through the fog of your situation. Something more beautiful starts to attract you, and you want to go toward it.

Intelligence. Let your mind lead the way. You start having newer, more exciting thoughts than the old habitual ones you've been following. Beliefs are challenged. New points of view attract you, so you move toward them. You’ll want to expand your mind in place of living behind defenses and boundaries.

Love and compassion. Discover that you can forgive yourself and others. Fantasies of hurt and revenge are replaced with emotional softening. You see that there is untapped love around you, so you move toward it. The fact that you desire to love and be loved starts to motivate you, without excuses about being unworthy.

Quantum leaps. Notice—and learn—when you have an epiphany, a moment of dramatic awakening. These are the great "aha" experiences that peel away an entire layer of reality. We say that the heavens open, but really it's a new level of consciousness, one that brings more light.

Devotion. Understand that life is full of awe and wonder. From this you see a reason to revere your own existence. You have been placed in a world where you can be devoted to something, and your worship gives you a sense of worth.

These escape routes all lead back to the person you really are, and that person know that what really counts extends far beyond the individual: the glory of creation, the beauty of nature, the heart qualities of love and compassion, the mental power to discover new things, and those unexpected epiphanies that bring the presence of God—these universal aspects are your true source of power. They are you, and you are all of them.

Take the time

Take time to laugh
It is the music of the soul.
Take time to think
It is the source of power.
Take time to play
It is the source of perpetual youth.
Take time to read
It is the fountain of wisdom.
Take time to pray
It is the greatest power on earth.
Take time to love and be loved
It is a God-given privilege.
Take time to be friendly
It is the road to happiness
Take time to give
It is too short a day to be selfish
Take time to work
It is the price of success.

Wherever You Are is the Center of the Universe

By Enock Tan / Creator of MindReality.com
The entire universe is a projection of consciousness. We experience the universe as a projection through us because each of us is a center of consciousness. Therefore we are all centers of the universe.
There really is no here or there because everything is at one point where consciousness is. We all do not exist in different places but are all present at one point. The reality of here and there is all created and experienced within the singularity of consciousness itself. Where you are is the center of the universe.
Consciousness is the dimensionless program that simulates dimensions. It is the omnipresent dot that creates the illusion of everywhere when there is nowhere but here and now. There is only one true place consciousness exists in and that is here. There is only one true time where consciousness exists in and that is now. Everything else that is experienced as there and then is only a simulation that is experienced from here and now. When you think of a time and place, you instantly travel there mentally.

In fact you do not really travel at all. The world around you shifts as your external environment and the things in it changes into the new one that you think of. It is because it is all a simulation. You never really move at all but it is everything else that moves. The center of anything never moves and therefore the whole world revolves around you. The physical world itself is also a simulation of consciousness. It is a simulation that you are walking and traveling from one place to another or moving along through time.
When you take a plane to another country which you last visited ten years ago, your change in experience is really a change in the simulation of reality. The simulated image of the city has changed as some buildings have been removed and new ones have appeared. The simulated images of the people you met before has also changed as the consciousness program reflects the effects of how people are effected by time. A few white hairs, wrinkled skin, height increase or sexual endowment has appeared.
We think that no one is the center of the universe because everyone cannot be the center at the same time. That is because we perceive consciousness to be separate from itself. Actually consciousness is projected from where you are. It only exist at one place and one time and that is where you are. If you are a tall, handsome man looking at a beautiful women in red, you are consciousness projecting the woman in red. If you are the woman in red, then you are consciousness projecting the tall man.
You are consciousness itself and whichever point of view you are experiencing at any giving point of time and place, everything else around you is a projection from you. You are more than just the particular person that you are. You are the entire universe itself. The reason why you perceive reality from a particular point of time and space, and as a particular person is because you are consciousness individuated into a single point of view for the purpose of experiencing everything else from that point of view.
Think of a computer program that runs a simulated game world where all characters are interacting with each other. It is all really just one program cycling between each character so fast that it seems as if all characters are being run simultaneously when they are actually being run one at a time. It is the activity of consciousness playing every single role in the universe that makes it seem as though there're separate programs running when it's really one program running everything in turns at infinite speed.
The reason why consciousness runs at infinite speed is because it is not confined to the boundaries of time at all. Time is only a simulated concept that is created by consciousness to be experienced by consciousness. Imagine playing a particular character and filming yourself, and then reversing the film and playing a different character. Superimpose the film of the first character with the second and you'll get the effect of two characters in one film. That is how two of you exist at the same time.
But consciousness doesn't really have to take turns experiencing itself from several points of view. It splits itself into many individuated versions of itself so as to experience all those points of view simultaneously. All those individuated versions are simply different parts of that one consciousness. When you shift your perspective from one point of view to another, you are shifting the center of the universe from one point to another. The center is everywhere yet nowhere according to how you see it.
So to experience your reality as the creator of it, realize that where you are is the center of all that is occurring. This is what it means to be centered. When you think someone, something or somewhere else is the center of what's going on, you are giving your power away to the external world. Move through your world with the consciousness that you are the center of the universe and you will find that you don't really have to shift much as things and people around you shift themselves instead.
You will become a lot more at peace, stable, cool and poised as your perception of being the center aligns your experience of reality with the state of being godlike. Less and less do things move you without your permission and more and more are you able to cause things around you to move instead. People will feel your strength, stability and solidness as you carry and project yourself as the center. You will become more and more of a master of reality as you control how time and space move around you.
