Aligning the Human Self: Activating the Heart Through Divine Connection

The human self consists of three essential gears: the body, the mind, and the heart. Each of these must connect to the spirit, the guiding force linked to the divine order of the universe. Without this connection, the gears lose their synchronicity, pulling us backward instead of allowing forward motion toward our purpose.

The heart, as the center of the human self, plays a critical role. It is not activated by mere rituals or empty actions but through the moral conscience, nurtured by the eye and the ear. The eye takes in divine order through sacred geometry, the Quran’s written form, or harmonious images in nature. The ear absorbs divine vibration through the Quran’s recitation, nature’s sounds, and the rhythm of dhikr.

Dhikr, while feeding the heart with positive attributes, serves as an interface. It is the recitation of the Quran, particularly Surah Yasin, that brings the heart to life, creating a bridge between the human self and the divine. Dua strengthens this connection, guiding the moral conscience and activating the heart in alignment with the universe’s higher order.

When the body, mind, and heart align with divine guidance, the human self transcends its animal inclinations. This alignment ensures we are not swept away by the deceptive pull of sensory distractions but move steadily toward enlightenment. Each gear must work in harmony, activated at the right time and in the right way, ensuring our spiritual motion propels us forward.

Introduction and Welcome

Introduction: Unveiling the Inner Blueprints Welcome to Inner Blueprints, a space where we explore the profound intersection between personality, spirituality, and self-discovery through an Islamic lens. Here, we delve into the unique workings of each individual’s soul—what we call the blueprint —and how it aligns with the divine guidance set forth by the Qur’an and the teachings of the Ahlul Bayt (AS). Our journey begins with the belief that every person possesses a distinct potential, a fiṭrah (natural disposition) crafted by Allah, that reflects their purpose in this world. Ma sha Allah, the human being holds immense power—not just to analyze the workings of the mind but also to understand the depths of the soul. Through reflection, faith, and guidance, we uncover the essence of our existence and move closer to aligning with our Creator’s blueprint. Why MBTI? The MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) offers a valuable framework for understanding how we think, feel, and interact with t...

The Amygdala, pineal gland, changing genetic misprograms and the Holy Qur'an

How the Arabic Quran Activates the Amygdala, Pineal Gland, and Corrects Genetic Programming In the realm of neuroscience and spirituality, the power of the Arabic Quran goes beyond mere words—it activates key brain structures that influence both emotional regulation and higher consciousness. The amygdala and pineal gland are two critical areas of the brain involved in this transformative process, working together to help correct inherited or learned emotional and behavioral patterns. Here’s how this process unfolds: 🔹 The Amygdala: Emotional Processing and Regulation The amygdala plays a key role in processing emotions, particularly fear, anxiety, and pleasure. When reciting or listening to the Arabic Quran , the rhythm, structure, and sound of the language activate the amygdala in a way that promotes emotional healing and balance . How it works: Arabic recitation’s distinct intonation, rhythm, and frequency stimulate the amygdala, allowing the brain to process emotions more eff...

From Sensing to Vision: Shifting from Dunya to Akhirah Through Inner Growth

786 Understanding the role of the S function in personality, its dunya orientation, and how Islamic practices guide us toward inner vision and higher spiritual alignment. Introduction: The Call to Inner Vision Allah warns us in the Qur’an, “And whoever is blind in this [life] will also be blind in the Hereafter and more astray in way.” (Qur’an 17:72). This verse reminds us of the critical importance of inner vision—the ability to see beyond the immediate, tangible world and into the unseen realities that truly matter. The secular world often approaches personality with neutrality, offering frameworks like the MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) to better understand oneself. While these tools can be useful, the issue lies not with the models themselves but with their secular origins. The real responsibility falls on us, as Muslims, to bridge the gap between these frameworks and the spiritual guidance we receive from Islam. It is not our duty to reject such studies, but to integrate them ...
