Sam Zulkarnain
Martial Arts Instructor & Traditional Healer
Sam Zulkarnain is a dedicated martial arts instructor and traditional healer specializing in Traditional Malays Art. He has a strong background in Silat and Muay Thai, and since 2020, he has been actively teaching Silat Harimau Putih — blending traditional Malay martial philosophy with modern combat methods to cultivate discipline, strength, and inner balance among his students.
From 2021 to 2025, Sam has participated in various combat sports such as F3 Strike and Full-Contact Silat Championships (FCSC), gaining extensive experience in competitive fighting and event coordination.
In addition to martial arts, Sam is also an experienced traditional healer, focusing on spiritual and energy-based therapies rooted in Malay and Islamic traditions, particularly traditional massage, ruqyah and traditional healing practices. His holistic approach emphasizes both physical and spiritual well-being.
Sam is also active in organizing and coordinating martial arts performances and cultural showcases, representing his school in official events and heritage festivals. His dedication to both martial arts and traditional healing reflects his mission to preserve, promote, and modernize Malay heritage for future generations.
He also holds a Class C Silat Instructor Licence from the National Coaching Academy (Akademi Kejurulatihan Kebangsaan) under KBS, an SPKK Level 1 certificate from PESAKA Malaysia, and a Level 1 certification in Sport Sciences, as well as a Coaching Authorization (Tauliah Kejurulatihan) from Pertubuhan Perguruan Harimau Putih.
Zahrin Shariff Nordin
Alternative Healer & Certified Silat Coach
Zahrin Shariff Nordin is a respected alternative healer, energy practitioner, and certified Silat coach whose work reflects the integration of physical discipline, spiritual awareness, and holistic healing.
With more than seven years of experience in the field of energy and spiritual therapy, Zahrin has developed a distinctive approach that unites traditional healing wisdom with contemporary understanding. His practice is guided by the belief that every human being carries both visible and invisible dimensions — where energy, intention, and divine connection coexist as the essence of balance and well-being.
Zahrin’s philosophy rests on a simple yet profound truth: every being carries light, every soul radiates energy, and every wound awaits healing through sincere intention. His sessions embody this principle through the combination of prayer, remembrance, and focused energy work. Each encounter is conducted with calmness, discretion, and compassion, allowing individuals to experience healing not only in body, but also in heart and spirit.
Beyond his healing work, Zahrin is an accredited Silat coach, holding an SPKK Level 1 Coaching Certificate from PESAKA Malaysia, the national Silat federation. His teaching extends beyond martial technique — he views Silat as a spiritual discipline that cultivates inner strength, humility, and self-awareness. Through movement and mindfulness, he guides his students to discover harmony between power and peace, discipline and compassion.
Zahrin’s holistic approach bridges energy work and martial discipline as two complementary paths toward self-mastery. Through his guidance, many have learned to interpret pain as a lesson, adversity as transformation, and stillness as strength. His dedication to both healing and Silat reflects a lifelong commitment to nurturing balance — between the physical and the spiritual, the visible and the unseen.
For Zahrin, the essence of his journey is captured in his personal reflection:
“Light does not seek shadows — it exists to remove them.
Such is the nature of energy born from a sincere heart.”

The Unseen Nexus:
A Comparative Ontological and Textual Analysis of Jinn, Shaytan, Ghosts, and Makhluk Ghaib Across World Cosmologies
Abstract
This conceptual paper presents a comparative ontological and textual analysis of unseen
entities across diverse global cosmologies, with a primary focus on Islam. The
analysis establishes that the realm of the unseen (Al-Ghayb) is broadly
segmented into two distinct taxonomic categories: the Created/Parallel Species and Residual
Human Souls. Entities such as the Jinn
(created from smokeless fire, possessing free will) and their analogues (like
the Álfar or Orang Bunian) represent sentient, parallel
civilizations that primarily function as agents of moral testing. Conversely, Ghosts (such
as the Yūrei or Pontianak) are derivative entities—human souls
trapped by unresolved trauma, violent death, or unfulfilled karmic debt.
The
comparison reveals that the role of the Adversary often
reflects the core theological mandate of the culture. In Abrahamic traditions, Shaytan/Iblis is an external,
absolute, and unredeemable foe (a rebellious Jinn) necessary to test human
obedience and free will. In Dharmic traditions, the antagonist like Mara
is more often an internal, redeemable manifestation of attachment and greed,
emphasizing that conflict and suffering are transient, self-generated karmic
conditions.
Ultimately, the paper argues that the core function of
the meta-category Makhluk Ghaib across cultures is to manage and provide
explanatory frameworks for the limits of human knowledge, moral failure, and
uncontrollable tragedy. It
also examines how the process of syncretism in Southeast Asia actively
reclassifies local spirits (like Hantu) as sub-species of Jinn or
Shaytan, a theological strategy to ensure adherence to monotheism.
Keywords: Jinn,
Shaytan, Al-Ghayb, Makhluk Ghaib, Ontology, Mara, Hantu, Comparative Religion.

The Alchemical Canvas
Redefining Strategic Planning Through Esoteric Metaphors in Dynamic Entrepreneurship
Abstract
To address these limitations, this study introduces The Alchemical Canvas, a novel conceptual framework that redefines strategic planning through esoteric metaphors. Drawing from Gareth Morgan’s theory of organizational metaphors and Jungian archetypal psychology, the framework integrates three symbolic instruments: The Grimoire (organization by intent), The Sigil (concentration of strategic intent), and The Magnum Opus (transformative endurance). Together, they provide a lexicon for cultivating systemic coherence, radical clarity, and psychological resilience within organizations navigating chaos and transformation.
The Alchemical Canvas proposes a paradigmatic shift from rational description to symbolic prescription, emphasizing manifestation over iteration and transformation over optimization. By operationalizing dynamic capabilities through metaphorical logic, this paper contributes to the emerging intersection of neuroentrepreneurship, symbolic management, and strategic cognition. The study concludes that integrating symbolic and esoteric thinking into strategic management offers a more sustainable model for organizational evolution in conditions of extreme uncertainty.

Warisan Academy Centre, with roots firmly established since 2013 (formerly known as Warisan Gerak Alif Resources), is more than just an academy. It is a dynamic interdisciplinary hub dedicated to research, preservation, and revitalization of the world’s ancient heritage, indigenous wisdom, and cultural philosophies.
What began as a journey to safeguard Malay and Nusantara traditions has now evolved into a global mission — to awaken love and respect for every culture’s timeless legacy, encouraging humanity to rediscover its shared spiritual origins and ancestral wisdom.Research & Cultural Preservation
Our core mission lies in the exploration and documentation of endangered cultures and traditions. We record oral histories, study ancestral practices, and preserve the essence of human heritage — protecting not only the Nusantara identity, but also the world’s diverse cultural tapestries.
A Gateway to the Unseen World
We engage in serious and structured inquiry into Metaphysics, Mysticism, and the Supernatural, exploring the universal truths found across civilizations. Through comparative study, we seek to reveal the common spiritual threads that connect humanity beyond religion, geography, or era.
The Sanctuary of Martial Arts & Wellness
We preserve Traditional Martial Arts as more than systems of defense — they are philosophies of movement, balance, and life. Alongside this, we offer authentic Traditional Healing practices, rooted in ancestral methods and holistic medicine, nurturing harmony between body, mind, and soul.
Dissemination & Outreach
Through writing, teaching, and publishing, we act as a bridge between ancient knowledge and modern thought. Our outreach and preservation initiatives include the distribution of rare manuscripts, traditional tools, and scholarly works — promoting cultural continuity while engaging a global audience.
