RE: The Concept of the Evil Eye in Islam and Beyond
Definitely the evil eye is a psychological construction of the human being, I understand it as a tool that significantly influence the life of human beings, precisely because it moves them out of their comfort zone and exploring other solutions, other possibilities to which It is happening to you.
Understanding that from this point of view, and aside religious concepts, I find this type of construct very healthy, since they promote people to act.
From the other side whether they are myths or not, because that is simply something respectable, individual and very typical of each religion.
I do not believe in the evil eye as an esoteric force, but rather as an energy that drives people to act. We can take this energy as a NLP (neuro linguistic programming) from the point of view in which it contributes to culturally enriching all the language and symbolisms of any culture.
I could spend hours writing about this topic that I know too, but I don't want to make a complete publication within the comments my dear Qassim.
On this occasion you have touched a totally interesting and attractive topic, I congratulate you.
Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is something I’d like to explore further. When I first wrote on Evil Eye, I had far fewer thoughts and resources than I do now. But as you know, I prefer updating my existing posts rather than creating new ones to keep everything in one place.
I haven’t had much time lately due to my father's recent stroke, but I can’t abandon writing altogether, I have so many drafts waiting. If you come across any useful points I could add to my blogs (I can share unpublished drafts), I’d really appreciate it.
I’m concerned about my dad's health, and I don’t think I can write at my best in this mental state. Still, writing offers a bit of distraction from my worries, so I’ll try to stay active here.
Also, if you ever write about NLP, please let me know. It would help me learn more about the subject.
I will be sharing you when I write on the subject (NLP), since I am a specialist in the field. But I need to order my mind to find the proper way to present it here in Hive, because it is information that I fear can be used intentionally bad, and I want to prevent that from happening.
Your father is normal, you are crossing the stage of shock, each person lives it differently, and there is no certain time to say when and as you assimilated it. Just take your time, these things cost, I say it from my experience.
The evil of the eye and the NLP go hand in hand, I think I will encourage me to write a little about that in HL, perhaps the next week, or depending on my time on Sunday.
Stay firm and don't lose sight of your purposes, I feel that you are going for the correct path, young man.
