Hamdi Ben Aissa established the Alchemya Institute for the purpose of sharing a coherent message, philosophy, and approach to faith that challenges religious misunderstandings and shifts paradigms. This message nourishes both the heart and mind and responds to the needs of our time.
Our VisionYour relationship with God has to go beyond the duality of obedience and disobedience, into the realm of Oneness. You obey and disobey, you pray and don’t pray. But you are still the lover and student of God.
Obedience is something; friendship with God is another thing. Let your aim be to remain in the company of God (الصّŘبة) - not to do things right (الصّŘŮ‘Ř©). This rule applies to all love relationships if you think about it. Good company does not mean to be perfect or to do things right all the time.
Stressing out over mistakes doesn’t work. Unhealthy pressure you may put on yourself doesn’t work. Guilt doesn’t work.
Allow this paradigm to liberate you and open to a new perspective in your relationship with God.
