  • I find it very interesting that the Buddha is said to have achieved his revelations while sitting under a tree. I knew there was always something about trees! So many other beliefs have the element of the tree in them as well. Trees of knowledge. Trees speak.

    Friend, remember my coin analogy? I just thought of something.....

    In the Bible it says there was TWO trees in the Garden of Eden. One was the Tree of Knowledge, the other was the Tree of Life. Adam and Eve were allowed to eat from the Tree of Life, but forbidden to take fruit from the other. Forgive me if you are not much for biblical analogies.....

    Take a coin and set it on the table. It is all part of what "God" is, but is it only the knowledge of good and evil part. The knowledge alone isn't everything. We have to set that knowledge into motion. To put this knowledge into motion is the ability to "create" life just like "God". Now take that coin, pick it up, and spin it. THERE it is! The Tree of Life! Spinning perfectly, everything in balance as it should be. That is what we must all search for. That is what "God" is. The perfect balance of good and evil working in creative animate motion as ONE. "God" is not simply the knowledge of good and evil, but "God" is the power to give things life. Life or Spirit is "animate". When the coin is spinning it is also "animate" in a way. When the male and female come together in perfect balance, we bring that "animation" into Being. Putting the two in motion to create life. All things that exist have this "animate" force. Therefore all things have Spirit. Not such a strange coincidence then that all the planets, stars, galaxies, and even the Universe itself is rotational including destructive forces of nature such as tornadoes and hurricanes. Everything seems to have this rotational force. There is a positive and negative to them. However, even as all things rotate, they all eventually slow down and lose momentum. Just like the coin does. And then what? Everything that has "life" or "animation" has a lifespan it would seem. It seems that eventually "something" comes along and throws off that balance. I would be afraid to think of what would happen if all the stars and galaxies and the Universe itself slowed down. What happens to a star when it "dies" or has completed it's "lifespan"? Interesting......Everything spinning in perfect balance, but will it ever slow down? I wonder.....

    Gaaawd!!... I think even my head is spinning!:D

    You probably already knew all this as wise as you are. But I hope my analogy makes sense to you. I don't mean to analyze the bible so much. I see both truths and lies, or positive and negative in ALL things and ALL beliefs, including my own, but they are there for a reason. They serve a purpose. You can't have one without the other. Is there even such thing as ALL Truth? I don't know. Do we not NEED the other part to make that balance? If it were not for both the truth and the lies, mankind would stop fighting in circles like dogs. Could man ever ALL agree on ONE thing? Does not seem likely. Do you agree or disagree with any of this?....Ha! Ha!, there is the balance right there! Agree or disagree. Perhaps for us to simply agree to disagree, is where the two become as ONE and we find that power to do great things. Thank you. I'm very sorry for the lengthy post.
    Hello again. I was wondering if you thought the coin analogy I gave in my recent post made sense. Also, I have to say that for someone who I have never met (in this lifetime anyways) you seem very familiar. But that's not very surprising I guess. For as little words as you use to explain your thoughts, your words speak volumes.
    hello friend, i am spending too much time on this forum!!! but its so interesting!!!
    It is ALL coming so crystal clear. The answers are just flowing through me. I don't even have to "search" for them anymore. They are ALL there. Thank you for helping me to see this.
    Well I'm on this forum to spread an idea to save the world. I believe that there is a magical world that is separate from this one but the line between them are growing thin. I think if we had magic we would not have to use cars or many machine therefore those things would stop polluting the environment. so I thought if people raised enough energy then we could blend the worlds. either by praying or doing spells or meditation. just do anything to do this. even if you don't believe in such things. Just spread this message to everyone you know(especially wiccans). thank you. blessed be.
    Hello Zenzero
    I have just recieved your reply and I am gratful that you are who you are without boundries that is always a good thought. I understand where you are coming from with your words but I'm sure that it would take a great deal more than I could write here. The doorway to the soul? This comes to mind?
    I am always open to debate with anyone who thinks outside of custodian religion. I will close with that simple thought have a good day.

    Greetings Zen Zero
    I noticed that you have made a request in the firend section ? I picked it up when I logged in tonight or should I say early morning.
    I'm a student of left path thinking in most ways although I do strike a balance as well. If you are want to commuicate then you are most welcomed to do so it would be intersting to hear both sides of a debate. I will take my leave and wish you the best zen zero!!

    Hi zen,how are you,hows the weather there,i bet its better than here as its cold grey and wet.
    I went to an indian restraunt that said it served indian quisine,well i have had many indian meals that were ten times the quality.
    Most of the food in england claiming to be genuine indian quisine is'nt that good so i tend to cook my own currys and i have been trying to find a supplier of traditional tandoors so i can have one in the garden.
    Anyway hope that was'nt too boring
    happy days
    Hi Zen,thanks for the freind request,i am 53 years old from Berkshire England,it is interesting that you live in India as my eldest Son will be there later this month on Tiger Safari and the only shooting will be from the camera.
    Anyway hope you are well and take care.
