The lyrics, drawn from the Qur'an, declare "He is God (Hu Allah), There is no other God than God (La illaha illallah)".
However the term 'hu', in Sufi tradition, represents divine consciousness and essence, comparable to the Hindu notion of prana (breath) or lifeforce.
In many ancient shamanic cultures, like Native American Taino traditions, the syllable 'hoo' also represents Winds, Spirit or Breath. In fact, the English word 'hurricane' comes from the Taíno word 'juricán', the Mighty Wind Spirit where 'hoo' indicates spirits. The Native European religion of the ancient Scandinavians also taught that the winds carried spirits and Odin, the Allfather and Guide of the souls, was also a God of the winds whose name meant 'Breath'.
While the Qur'an says that "Spirit is God", another messenger of God, Jesus, plainly stated in John 4:24, "God is a Spirit". Spirit is God, God is Spirit. Hoo Allah, Allah Hoo.
In declaring the Oneness of Spirit, we recognize that we are all interrelated, there is no other Spirit. Just as we take life and we give life in every breath we take, your life is my life. Your pain is my pain. Your joy is my joy. Your freedom is my freedom. We all breathe the same air, we share one life. Breath is the organic expression of what Lord Buddha would have called 'interbeing'.
In the realm of Spirit, there is no 'other'. Only us.
The name of this song is Ajmer Sharif, by Felix Maria Woschek. He usually sings Hindu devotional songs, but occassionally he honors other traditions and here he celebrates Sufi spirituality. The imagery in the video includes Muhammad, whom Muslims consider God's messenger. It also includes the Ka'aba, beautiful architecture of Baha'i temples from around the world, and images of Guru Nanak and Zoroaster, two other Messengers of God from the Sikh and Persian traditions.
This Vedio is not for Muslim. Allah is un see able.
we do request to You Tube please Delete this Vedio.
this is bad thinking for Muslim.
