ADNAN OKTAR: Allah says, "I am the wealthy One. None of you has any possessions.” We look inside our brains. The possessions we form with our eyes come and go. But we see we have no other possessions in our brains than an image. We look at money and put it on the table. The money we produce through our eyes comes and goes. Money is an image in our brains. Gold is also an image. Houses and cars are all images. That is why Allah says, “You have no possessions. You are poor.” Do you know how poor? Infinitely poor. "You have nothing,” says Allah. ‘You are needy,” He adds. He says that “Allah is the Al-Ghaniyy, He Who has no need of anything.” He says it is He Who gives us these images.

PRESENTER: If this is an image, how is it I am touching it? 

ADNAN OKTAR: You have now perceived it in your brain. You feel it in your brain. You feel it at your finger tips. In other words, because of the image, because it is three-dimensional, when it and the image of your finger are combined together, since they are all perceived in the same place in the brain, you feel a sensation stemming from three-dimensional perception that you are touching it with your finger. There is not feeling in your finger tip. Not in that sense. The only feeling is in the brain. For example, you see my image. I appear to be at a distance, though we are in the same place. It is as if your microphone and mine are in the same place. We form in the same place in your brain.

PRESENTER: Why do we both see you as being in the same place then? How do we see you the same?

ADNAN OKTAR: We do have the reality of external matter, but it is transparent on the outside. The transparency stems from its atomic structure. But there is  pitch darkness. There is no darkness on the outside. There are photons. We perceive photons as light. There are sound waves on the outside, waves. Our brain is like a radio. The waves come into our brains and turn into sounds in the radio in our brains. The ears in our brains hear. These ears are all deaf. Both ears, they are just tools. Ears are tools that convert vibrations into electricity. They are devices that convert sound waves entering from the outside into an electrical current. One certainly does not hear in the ear. It is the same with the nose. People do not smell with their noses. It just converts gaseous chemical substances from the outside into electrical energy and transmits this to the brain. We smell in our brains. In other words, we smell a rose in our brains. The image of the rose on the outside is black, dark and transparent. Even if there is light it is transparent. That red and green color therefore forms in the brain, and is a perception. There is not one scientist who does not agree with this. Irreligious people, atheists, Buddhists, Muslims and Christians all agree on this. It is a scientific reality.
