The Andalusian Manhaj


















Conflict is inevitable. And, from the writings of Heraclitus, we should know that conflict can be creative: the Logos threads its Way through Love and Strife. But conflict need not lead to physical violence. Physical violence ensues where the imagination ends--a "terminus" that is both false and tragic, for the imagination itself has no end. It would therefore be more accurate (and honest) to admit that physical violence ensues where the imagination has been abandoned. Where the imagination has been abandoned, stupefaction reigns.

Sleepy Iberia, who gave us Seneca, the Andalusian convivienca, Unamuno, and Santayana, rouse up from the depths of your spiritual reservoir the strength we need to overcome the world!
