Aik Alif | Noori & Saieen Zahoor | Season 2 REACTION | Coke Studio Pakistan 

Yes, I agree with you. A wandering mystic, who roams from place to place in search of the divine.

Jogi is the word that comes from the Sanskrit word Yogi. 1000 to 1200 years ago when people in the Arab and Turkey regions start to read the translated books of Santana Darma in their language they found them quite intriguing. This was the time when they start to come to India. After a few hundred years this Sufi sect left the path of spirituality and started to function like missionaries of Islamic rulers and started to follow Shariat(Shara) and started to convert the less educated native people from the areas like India, Kazakistan, Iran, and many others to Islam. Some Sufis didn't agree with them and refuse to obey the Shara. This resulted in the division of the Sufi Sect, the result of which two sects emerged one was Bashara(who abide with Shara and keep on converting people to Islam) others were Beshara(who refused to abide with Shara and keep on moving on the path of spirituality following many principles from Sanatana Dharma, these people used to wander in discrete places). In old times Farsi speaking people used to call Indian Yogi as Jogi so they started to call these Beshara Sufis also a Jogi. So nowadays people think that person who has renounced the world in pursuit of spirituality is a Jogi, there are other words used for Jogi as well like Mast Mola, Malang etc. But they really do not depict the word, Yogi. The real meaning of Jogi(Yogi) as per Sanskrit is one who is on the path of Yog(merging self with the Parameshwar i.e. God). It is not necessary to renounce the world to become a Yogi because as per Hindu(Sanatana Drarm) scriptures Yog is an internal state of a person and yes once when someone advances in it they may renounce the world and may not but it is not mandatory. But today many people think it is mandatory to renounce the world to become a yogi because they follow what they see. Hope it helps.🙏🙏🙏

⁠@@v.t.6890thank you for sharing that, but I would like to add my understanding here. Sanatana Dharma is just a description of a life that’s forever sustainable. And that’s what Islam is (supposed to be if practiced properly). There’s a distinction between Islam the religion (mazhab) and the deen (way of life). Islam promotes being in tune with nature, the 5 prayers are with the daily movement of the sun, the fasting in Ramadhan as per the moon cycles, worship/salah/namaz to be done on earth and to do sajdah on it. Ultimately, the Islamic belief is belief in the Oneness of God. Which is likely the original belief of Sanatana Dharma as well, as according to scripture God ultimately is One, Supreme, Source of all. There there are further avatars (representations) that are given the status of associates of God, which has been a common theme in regions throughout the world. Ancient Greece, Romans, West Africans and others. People always associated their earlier ancestors as being holy, and eventually giving them divine status, making statues to venerate them and finally worshiping them and seeking from them. Which is the ultimate mistake to make equals in any creation with God Almighty. Before these landmasses were labelled as India, Persia, Arabia, Mesopotamia, Egypt, Turkey etc, there were no borders (mostly city states) and just open plains that people travelled from one place to another. Travel between the above mentioned areas is documented to go back man thousands of years even hundreds of thousands, possibly millions of years. In terms of civilization, thought Mehrgardh seems to go back nearly 10,000 years and in Turkey Gobekli Tepe around same time. Then you have the oldest continually inhabited cities of the world like Damascus, Aleppo, Jerusalem etc. In South Asia you oldest cities including in the Indus Valley, Mehrgardh etc but also rest of India, Bangladesh and likely South East Asia has had fertile lands and long history of human migration and settlement. Going back to the point about religion, the path of worshiping God is innate in all creation including humans, but humans have some additional factors to deal with including free will and dark/distracting forces (aka satanic/shaitan) who has made it their mission for humans to defy and not recognize God’s authority as being Supreme. There’s a lot more to it, but to circle back, this concept of detachment can be found in what we call different religions today but essentially were people of highest level of faith able to detach from this world and yet live in it, many were from what we call today Christian saints, from Jewish patriarchs recognized by Christian and Muslim like Yusuf/Joseph, Yaqub/Jacob, Daud/Davud/David, Solomon/Suleman, Musa/Moses, and others. Some even earlier than this like Ibrahim/Abraham could be considered the greatest ascetic. He was born in region of Iraq/Uruq and it’s possible the Vedas etc are of him. Possibly the term Brahmic/Brahma be of him. He’s famous for defying his father who was an idol maker and seller. One day he broke all the idols in his city and was casted out his city because of that, including by his father. He sought out God and became friends with God, a title he’s called by Muslims today, Khalil-ul-Lah, God’s closest friend. He’s also considered the forefather of the Abrahamic religions. Where Muhammad ﷺ is praised by Muslims is that he brought people back to the ways of Ibrahim (AS), as well as additional commandments given specifically to him by الله (God) including 5 times worship, hajj, fasting Ramadhan etc. And then you have the likes of Rumi, Abdul Qadir Jilani, Ghazali, Shams Tabrizi, as well as prominent Muslim mystics in India and all over often called ‘wali’.

Agreed! knowing the story of sohni mahiwal before listening to it really helps feel the emotion of the song a lot more

No please!

Yep, thats still my trance in 2023

Hello, Yukichi! Mr. Peterson totally remembers you! I’m sure he’ll see this soon and reply. Hope you are having a good summer!

Hey Fuku, I think that’s what your friends called you that year. Of course I remember you. I haven’t honored you by playing your favorite Aladdin song in quite some time but I need to today at 2:00. You left a great impression on me. Thanks for watching our videos and commenting on them. I hope you had a good year this past year as difficult as it was. It was great to have your brother in my class this year (Hot Dog). Enjoy your summer and good luck next year. Your parents are very kind. Tell them I say hello.

Jogi could also be translated to a saint. It's not the usual term for a saint in common usage but saints also shun materialism in favour of spiritual enlightenment.

Yogi has a different meaning in the west. It’s a teacher or a person who practices Yoga. While a Jogi is more a spiritual wanderer who left earthly belongings behind.

@@sjagoeffy right
