Exploring Life

Entry 960 - December 14th, 2021 I believe we will get much more out of our lives by investigating the clues of the mysteries of our universe and the laws that govern them because they, by nature, extend beyond the limitations of the groups created on Earth. These laws go beyond Earth, beyond the galaxy, and even stretch forth beyond our universe. They are the fabrics of realization that help us remember who we are at a fundamental and source level. Time spent exploring these truths is time well spent. Entry 961 - December 25th, 2021 People will seriously deify everything but themselves... There's something that they fear about it. They fear that believing they are one with God will make them less receptive. But in actuality, there are two roads that can be followed: one person who believes they are one with God and no one else is, which creates separation, and the other road where they are one with God and everyone else is too. That latter road is the road of oneness and the one Je...

Entry 973 - December 16th, 2021 Some of the most toxic people I’ve met are those who are the most stringently and dogmatically identified with more-than-obvious fear-based and limited belief systems. There are belief systems that do not focus substantially on our limits, and then there are other belief systems that focus predominantly on negative and limiting ideals. Ironically, I see this amongst those most identified with one extreme polarity rather than those who observe in neutrality. For example, within spirituality, there are those who are balanced in their ideals. When they see known issues, they move in such a way to find real-time solutions instead of complaining and doing nothing about it. Then, even more on the extreme are those in spirituality who are paranoid and fearful of not only the actual problems that exist, but they believe and create problems that cannot be validated or proven to exist beyond the scope of their perspective or their group’s perspective. This is ofte...

Entry 952 - Dec 2nd, 2021 If you want to be a balanced individual, then you have to find the places of imbalance and then re-balance them. If you're always thinking, then you need to learn to find a balance between thinking and non-thinking. If you're always doing, then you need to find a balance between doing and being. If you're always talking or always listening, then you need to find a balance between the two. Entry 953 - Dec 2nd, 2021 We are tied not only to the stories we believe in, but also to the stories we make. There is what is, that is before we had a thought about it. Then there is our interpretation of the "what is," the thought about it. Some thoughts are collectively shared, others are individually shared. Some are born from our collective decision, others are members of our one-party worldview. Entry 954 - Dec 2nd, 2021 If humanity in the early centuries were as technologically advanced as we are now, it would literally be a disaster. The rise of ...

Entry 942 - October 22nd, 2021 Many Christians claim morality is not relative by using phrases like "old covenant" and "new covenant" to work around morality being relative to the culture, society, and traditions of people throughout the centuries. I understand these phrases were used in the New Testament, but we must also consider that we have no verifiable evidence that most of the books written in the New Testament were authored by those who are said to have written them. We also must acknowledge how, hundreds of years later, the church decided on which gospels and epistles to include as the official canon of the established—and then wealthy—church. Furthermore, bishops and priests not only got into fistfights over which books would be included but also murdered those who disagreed with their preferred selections. This is worth remembering when someone raises the age-old argument, "But they were directed by the Holy Spirit as to which ones were infallible an...

Entry 932 - November 1st, 2021 Personally, I think it’s harder to see all in all as God than to have a limited vision, limited idea, limited concept, or limited image of who God is. For me, it was easier to project all the good of Christianity onto an image of God that looked like me and to see everything else as not God. The repercussions of that viewpoint are that everything else is seen as separate from God—less than God, inferior to God. One starts to view God as monarchical; hierarchical in relation to everything else (even though if God is truly limitless, there is truly no limit to what God is). That limited viewpoint sees God as the king that must be obeyed regardless of what you want to do. Oneness somehow mutates into separation. If someone asks you to remove all ideas, concepts, beliefs, and images of God and not to interpret and limit All That Is as a Monarch waiting to punish or reward you, many wouldn’t be able to grasp that openness. Something that pervades all concepts,...
