  <abstract>A Vision of Unity: Selected Writings on History, Politics, Philosophy and Literature is a journey through the timeless search for harmony, weaving insights from history, philosophy, psychology, and literature into a single tapestry. The first part, Civitas, explores how major thinkers—from Samuel P. Huntington and Francis Fukuyama to Thomas Sowell—envisioned unity amid the shifting currents of politics and history. Here, the author introduces his unique idea of concord: the natural tendency of diverse groups to come together into a united whole, not through assimilation or force, but through shared lived experiences—a dynamic he calls spectations. The second part, Noesis, ventures into the philosophical landscapes of Spinoza’s rationalism, Kant’s transcendental idealism, and Hussert’s phenomenology. it traces how the eternal quest in study of lived experience by Western philosophers made complete by the intuitive insights of Islamic metaphysics, offering a profound vision of the intuition of Being. The third part, Mythos, calls for a return to humanity’s mythopoetic imagination—the deep symbolic understanding of life that flourished before the Enlightenment’s age of reason. it reminds us of a time when destiny, belonging, and Reality itself were intimately woven into everyday existence.</abstract>
