Interesting POV from the Yoga Vasistha on Truth, reality, to Be or not to Be ... This view does challenge the validity of "the art of debating" on matters such as Truth, Spirituality, Religion
IF you are not up for having your views turned upside down THEN best to not read any further
I just...
Hello... I am a human on Earth who writes Chapbooks regarding current Social Life, corrections we might consider together gleaned from all sources in Creation and the process New Creatures Orientate to existence on Earth in the Modern Day. I am interested in Social Issues related to Religion...
Below facts should make people wonder, who see their Religion as superior to other Faiths:
Truth has nothing to do with Religion
Righteousness has nothing to do with Religion
Peace has nothing to do with Religion
Love has nothing to do with Religion
Non violence has nothing to do with...
This thread is not political, but it's about Trump
My question "Is Trump more Christlike (loving, honest etc) or more the opposite, kind of anti Christlike in your opinion?"
Seems to be a kind of "Love" vs "Hate" situation
What do you think?
(I'll share my ideas on this in the next post)
I...
Christians claim that God is perfect. But, I have my personal reasons for thinking He's imperfect. I'll just share 3 reasons for now. My 1st reason is in regards to the 2 popular, Christian views of punishment, which are Annihilationism (the idea that God erases unsaved sinners from existence)...
That's it, to me, plain and simple it is a No.
I see the peace and security of humanity is unattainable, unless and until Unity is firmly established and that unity is not possible while humanity as a majority do not follow the Counsels given by God.
All faiths given of God, do have Counsels...
I believe that there are two fundamental archetypal forces at play in the world. The first one is the God of Judgment (GoJ). GoJ perceives everything in stark binary terms, such as "good" and "evil," "right" and "wrong," and "you are either with us" or "you are against us." This judgmental...
As I mentioned recently, the only people I hear claiming that people routinely confuse sex and love are people who belong to religion with sanctions against sex outside of marriage.
Howdy! I just felt like writing this out and figured I'd share it here. Hope you like it.
The Tea Gathering
I once awoke to find my room filled with so many of my great loves. Jesus sat beside Buddha who sat beside Nanak who sat beside Rumi who sat beside Eckhart who sat beside Zhuangzi who...
There is no darkness.
I say Love always wins in the end. No matter how much darkness may be imputed toward the light, it is not able to overcome the light.
I see Faith is the light of this world, which is currently being imputed with darkness.
Those that impute, are not able to overcome the...
I see all the Messengers of God have had to suffer greatly. This OP is about all the Messengers and Prophets that have come from God.
I see their suffering was for us and our neglect of their Messages brings great sadness upon all humanity. They accepted all that suffering, and still do, so we...
It is a question that has been asked of me, so I start with my answer. It could be put in many ways.
I always consider the roots of faith. I see that the Prophets and Messengers are from God and are the source of Oneness, yet those Messages are also the sword that divides.
Then I consider that...
What can I like about a person? Unlimited shelf life. Like table salt, it is endless. Penfriendships have an expiration date, which is three days or a week. Therefore, the expiration date of the interlocutor can be stretched if you do not correspond every day but write one letter a week. The...
No third god. Love or hatred no third spirit. Spirit is God. Spirit of Love or spirit of hatred. Good or Evil -- no third god. Indifference is hatred. If I will be in danger, you will not save me, because I am nothing for you. It is hatred.
This is a new video about Abdul'baha.

This is a topic that many see as challenging.
Yet I now see it is an intrinsic part of all God given Religions. It is about Justice for the actions we take as individuals and collectively as Nations.
It seems to be about cause and effect, or neglect of the Cause becomes the calamities we face...
I have not read books about it such as I'm Ok You're Ok. No, I have not read a lot.
I think that its a general principle that if we hate ourselves we cannot help but start to feel miserable about other people. This manifests as various feelings, but its all related to that self hatred...
