Foreign together and especially especially if you can read French last year they published the correspondence the letters exchange so many letters between Massillon and Mariton because Maritime as a philosopher he would like to learn more about religions especially about Islam and Hinduism and he was ex asking so
Many questions to this expert of religious through his experience in the Muslim world because he had a very interesting life beforehand he was a soldier French soldier then he became more Catholic at that time he was agnostic machine is studying the Muslim Sufi orders engaging with them he discovered that idea of
Being brother among tamsas and then when he turned back to his faith he understood that is also very important Central in his faith and for uh his his case or Fort Madison both of them followed the footsteps of shardo hookah leaving this Heritage as I like being
Because the term that he used I skipped that where I don’t want to just go to too much into this thank you very much again for this question because it helps me to some stuff that I’m not seeing you know uh on my notebook called himself as universal brother he
Would like to be brother of everyone else around him starting with the toilet Muslim in Algeria and this idea of working on himself making himself as a the brother transforming himself while staying as a deeply rooted Christian but transforming himself as a universal brother of everyone else around the world
Picked up by machine and Maritime even in their lives for instance Maritime after the death of his wife Raisa he personally became a little brother of Jesus he became a mom after the the his wife passed away he didn’t want to remarry or just you know to stay as a
Layperson he made this for the case of machine there’s something very important because would like to uh actually uh transformed his Brotherhood into more concrete level he started a important prayer prayer moments between Muslims Christians to create this Brotherhood they called badalia that’s started in Cairo in 1930s and finished
In 1962 which is that and in his years he would like to put together Christian muslims praying together creating this Brotherhood Sisterhood among themselves especially for very uh delicate moments even very delicate political moments because he was uh asking Christians to pray and work for the Muslim minorities in the Christian work
And asking Muslims to pray and help for the Christian minorities and the Muslim I mean Muslim minorities in Christian word Muslim they’re the wise person and just a good news about that after his dad the badalia kindly just diminished and forgoted but recently I discovered a group and this group uh
Started 20 years ago but I had no idea uh Dorothy Buck she’s a PhD she did her thesis in Boston she started badalia new badalia group in Boston and for the last 20 years they joined together now Muslim Christians open to everyone else they do this special prayer to enforce dear brother
And Sisterhood and actually I started participating in this group online of course I could not just get there for monthly meeting and I was really amazed and this is again thanks to uh last but not least masin Young uh as a scholar of halach the the Sufi
Uh Tinker you know maybe remember him because he had this uh you know the phrase which created so much uh disruption that time he said Allah and they say whether he said I’m the truth why I’ve got you know just all in moment of ecstasy that you know Halal
Studying her large and actually focused on war and idea of being a Brothers not all the of the humanity but the whole universe in nature and that’s just you know another idea that we can learn from the work of uh Louis Massimo thank you
