Hmm...

Blood rituals are very ancient....

i had heard of this before...had not seen these dramatic pics though...

About a year ago I saw a documentary showing how some Muslims performing certain rituals to heal severe wounds, and to withstand pain. This was done with deep meditation techniques and chanting.
There was footage of machetes being wedge into heads and body parts, ice picks piercing the body, neck, mouth and tongue. It was blood everywhere. What I found amazing was the lack of pain being displayed, and in some cases you can see actual healing of the wounds in real time. It was a great display of mind over matter…of coarse western society is trained to view this as sadistic and/or painful…well, what you expect from sheeple who are hook on meds and routinely take trips to the Doctor’s office.

Peace

i agree that most do not see this , for what it can truly be...

but....

these are days of mis-information...

Healing thru meditation...pain control...nothing of that is new...

i would have liked to see that video..

The point is why do that..and what is more..for religious reasons..i bet there are better ways of experiencing mind over matter...I wonder how that little child in the picture did that...

hope so..because there was a cut on his head that looked real...

Anyway all blood rituals make me sick..where humans are injured or animals killed...

Céline · 12-28-2009, 05:45 PM

There is a blood ritual...that i have done once..that i did enjoy...

but it is not for everyone

The title of this thread is misleading "muslims celebrated". Which muslims?..sunni...****ite??? I'm positive not all muslims celebrated this ceremony and it's beliefs. I wish your link was in English so I could gain more information on this.

Correct.

Only the Shiite Sect have a blood ritual.

The most common form of Islam is Sunna, and they have a different religion altogether from Shiites. Yin/Yang.

Shairia · 12-29-2009, 02:41 AM

Thank you for clarifying that point. I don't like generalizations because of the potential to misunderstand certain sects personal beliefs.

burgundia · 12-29-2009, 10:32 AM

Yes, only Shiite...i didn't know how to spell this word in english that is why I made a generalization...
PS Can we ask moderators to change the title and add the word Shiite...

Thank you for understanding burgundia, I realise the difficulties in finding the right translation.
