    Metaphysics

    You're right, Aup. The description seems to align with what I know of the Ik Onkar, however Kalibhakta disagrees. He sees a personality, which we can probably agree is on the next ladder rung down from Brahman. However... "Waheguru" is not a name, it is an exclamation. Did you know it only...

    Metaphysics

    Dear Kristoffer What I meant was that in the Quran, Allah appears to be a personality, an individual. The most obvious examples of this type of god-character is Jehova in the Christian Bible, and the many gods and goddesses one sees within the Hindu pantheon (Shiva, Vishnu, etc). As other...

    Metaphysics

    Dear @Kristoffer Question 1 Short answer: Neither. Longer answer: The Sikh concept of "god" is unique. It cannot be adequately described by "Allah" or any Hindu (Sanatan) name for god. As Parsiba's Gurbani quote for question 1 above shows, the concluding lines are: "Says Nanak, one who...

    Who am I kidding?

    Religion is clearly not for me. I keep questioning them, finding holes, problems, contradictions. So why do I keep seeking? What am I really looking for? It's driving me nuts! :mad:

    The halal rort on Australians: paying an Islamic religious food tax without knowing

    However, companies do need to pay for the endorsement. The halal stamp isn't free.

    Images of Thor

    G'day I'm interested in finding images of Thor for my shrine. As much as I love Chris Hemsworth, I just don't quite think he'd look as good on my shrine ;) So what do you have? Any recommendations? Thanks! Treks

    Unconditional Love

    You don't need to beg or make excuses like the woman did if the love is unconditional. And if Jesus is God, then God's love is indeed bound by conditions.

    Unconditional Love

    Matthew 15:21-28 seems pretty conditional to me.

    Libation offerings

    Thorbjorn, did you ever find a resolution for your question, or are you still doing it this way? I'm very interested in libations. How often do you do them? Why don't you do them directly outside on the ground (thereby removing the need for the bowl)? I dunno, I don't know the first thing...
