Know The Brief History Of The Druze On www.substance.com
A historical account of the Druze reveals a closely-knit and secretive religious sect with roots in Egypt, a thousand years ago. Their belief is based on the incarnated God on earth through their acknowledged leader, al-Hakim bi-Amrih Alla. The Druze do not particularly belong to any of the races but are known to descend from the Arabs with heritage composed of European, Kurdish and Iranian. Most of the Druze then were isolated and lived in the mountainous regions of Syria, Lebanon and Israel and on some remote areas throughout Middle East. However, there were reported migrations to the USA, North America, Australia, West Africa and Jordan.
There has not much information circulated by the Druze that scholars cannot claim they have studied on this secret society. At the onset, the Druze have been quiet and were never open to share any of information to the world outside them for fear of persecution and reprisal. Furthermore, you can find on www.substance.com that much of the Druze Texts or manuscripts have remained to be in their original form and language that make things more complicated to decipher about their culture or religion. The Druze has been known to survive the most critical history of religion and politics in the Middle East.
The Druze may not count as much in terms of population, roughly estimated to number from about 700,000 to 2 million around the world. They are said to have their own spiritual identity innate to them which has not been known until the turn of the 20th century when there was more than enough reason to break their silence. The Druze are well united until these days and they are represented by their flag which has strengthened their unity and spiritual identity. The flag comprises of five colors, representing five prophets in each of the color: Red, blue, yellow, white and green. Their spiritual identity is associated with metaphysics and the ancient Greek and the knowledge theories of Greek philosophers and sages - Plato, Aristotle, Socrates, Hermes, Seth and Parmenides.
The doctrines of their spiritual mind science had been known to be based on the theorems of the ancient Greeks. Their sense of unity stems from this spiritual identity which is unique and their strong loyalty to their creed and brethren emanate from their silence and isolation.
At the height of the political and civil unrest, a number of Druze members were engaged in acts of violence especially at a time when they protested against annexing the Golan Heights with Israel. This was the start of the universal knowledge of the Druze from media which was followed by the misconceptions and criticisms hurled at them as violent and radical. The late 1980’s in the USA, the American Druze Society launched an information campaign to correct the public’s negative notion about them. The Druze claim that they neither anti-American nor associated with the leftists and are neither Muslims. Today, the Druze, through the Authentic Druze Gnostics, launched www.substance.com to share the Druze spiritual identity which kept them intact throughout their silence and isolation which they call the Fifth Science, a spiritual mind science that is inherent to them.
