No probs Just a little post script comment I wanted to make which I thought may be of use to you.

There is a god. But the extreme hugeness and bigness is typically beyond our regular comprehension and senses.

Keep talking (praying); just because you dont believe in religion doesnt invalidate her existence.

Start meditating. 5-10 mins a day is a good start. You will start getting answers by simply listening... afterall, praying is talking to god, and meditating is listening. You have all the answers

God bless.
Dave

If you want true results understand that you don't talk to some greater being like most religions seem to express....

Everything is a Unity, all is the creator, the Infinite One where all has it's begining.

That which is infinite cannot be many, for many-ness is a finite concept. In an infinite Creator there is only unity.

We are all unique parts of the Creator look at a prism hit by sunlight as it streams multiple colors, this is a simplistic example of the Indefinite, Infinite, Unity.

Seperate conciousness is only because of individual distortions or fractals, only in this 3rd dimension do we see everything as seemingly seperate, when in reallity all is One.

Love yourself and love the creator that which you are of and it shall show you a path of loving others ALL others no matter what circumstances. Getting past the physical manifestation and it's illusive distortions will come with love and aid to all others.

For helping others is helping yourself, everything is one.

Forgive others for everything, and forgive yourself.....For forgiving others is forgiving yourself and so on and so forth.

This concept can only be comprehended with discipline/temperance/time.

All is One. Light and Love be with you.

Keep on and have trust in yourself and I know you will find your answers. Keep following the teachings of things that make you feel up and true.

Here are the 12 universal laws:

Here is a really good free online book that goes into detail about creation and what we and god is and comes from, amongs other things.

The New Earth: The Higher Spritual Knowledge
www.thenewearth.org...

Look at the chapters to get a sense of what your reading about. Chapter 1 is Creation.

Prime Creator has endowed this newest Creation System with the underlying principle of Love as an overall guiding principle for all its sentient Beings. Through expressing unconditional love towards each other and assisting each other wherever possible, we are able to evolve together in peace and mutual tolerance, building our civilizations to their fullest potential. The opposite and dark path is to concentrate exclusively on our own personal welfare at the expense of others.

The Alien "Forces of Darkness" in time also set up powerful "Frequency Fences" around the now infected Universes in order to hamper any subsequent rescue by the opposing "Forces of Light". These Frequency Fences over the millions of years have up to now proved almost impossible to demolish. Quite a few "Dark Universes" were also subsequently established within our "Fallen Sector" by certain members of our own original Creator Gods who, through an inherent weaknesses within their spiritual make-up, have been cleverly subverted into the ways of darkness by the insidious spreading contamination of darkness.

Unbelievably, it has taken over 500 million years for Prime Creator to prepare a powerful enough solution to finally eliminate this incredibly strong and spreading source of Darkness within our Fallen Sector of Creation. Over this time He has had to create a separate special new Creation within the outside Great Void totally from scratch, and which has been especially designed to create very powerful Beings with the force within their makeup to successfully battle the Forces of Darkness. At last, these newly created "Warriors of Light" are starting to enter our area of Creation and deploy their superior diamond-hard strength to successfully attack and destroy all our un-reformable Forces of Darkness. They do allow those that are prepared to make a genuine return to the Light to reform themselves under strict supervision, but those that totally refuse to do so will be re-absorbed into the basic matrix of Creation. [more about this in Chapter Ten]

I highly recommend this book for anyone thats interested.

there are generalisations to begin with that become higher resolution pictures as the journey progresses.

She has made the first step in asking the question. Now, let her learn on a path, or journey, without taking her directly to the destination.

But I do agree with you.

Dave

you think you think.

It is because the thoughts you think you think appear as images that you do not recognize them as nothing. You think you think them, and so you think you see them.

Well said Dave.

It is best to allow people to find their own path, and it is good for others to offer assistance. But one thing to be avoided is in the offering of too much complexity to begin with. As complexity breeds confusion. So as the old saying goes, "Keep it Simple".

This is quite the contrary, all is how it should be, humans seem to think that higher beings have "conflicts" that is only because of our narrow human perspective.

disagree. you and i are clearly not seeing eye to eye on this.

here is my website sites.google.com... where you can find my email address.

God is the light within you. It is a lie to say that God is outside of you, because God is always within you. The True tradition of Jesus Christ is actually Gnostic Christianity by which it is believed that all an individual needs to communicate with God is the wisdom of Jesus Christ. The church has corrupted this to make it seem as if the individual needed the church in order to obtain salvation. Many have died throughout history for speaking the truth, and the time will come again when the evil ones will oppress those who speak the truth. Now is a golden opportunity to learn as much about spiritual wisdom as possible before it is too late.

The light is the Truth, and God is the Light. Thus, God is the Truth. Understand how those two words have the same meaning, so that the two thoughts created by the words "God" and "Truth" will become apparent and you will see the light of your true nature.

But you must understand the concept and practice the art of meditation. Go to my website for more detail.

See this is why I just have fun and enjoy the love of enlightenment. This thread shows how after a while ya all get serious and start to analyze and get all serious.
My teacher is fun yet he enlightens me everyday. Everyday I spiritually grow but we still manage to have fun. As soon as "dark" and "evil" and all that serious stuff is injected into the debate Im out of here . God /Goddess made us to discover what we want to be, not to worry and fear and be depressed. En -lighten up , have fun your here to learn not to be sad and analytical. When ya die you arnt grilled for what ya done wrong, your congratulated for all you have discovered. Take a step back, become aware and see the big picture here. The big picture is enjoy, learn and be yourself.
Just do whatever your soul requests as it is always right.
Gurus come to us at exactly the right time. If your Guru dont make ya laugh then they arnt right
The time is now to bring fun back into enlightenment, who wants to sit in a cave for 20 years? Not me lol This is soooooooooo not required.

Please explain to me how our indefinite being is finite and apart from the Superior One.

We are but the Infinite One experiencing ourselves.

Each of us are a unique part or fraction of the Infinite One with seperate/different distortions of our reallity. Outside of the narrow view of this 3rd density of being everything is easily comprehended as a Unity, and only from Infinity can Unity arise.

Hi

Here's a link to a thread on my search and what was found. Enjoy.

STM

www.belowtopsecret.com...

As a well studied Christian I believe I can answer any specific question you have about Christianity that you feel has not been answered to your satisfaction.

I'd prefer not to answer them publicly in this thread because that would only lead to a "religious war" of words and conflicting ideas - and you alone will have to decide if you feel the answers I can provide lead to greater illumination.

Please know that some questions regarding good and evil can have long and sometimes technical explanations - I have made it my lifes calling to pursue the questions regarding the meaning of life - and have doggedly studied across a wide variety of disciplines in order to understand the answers.

Also, do not take your spirituality lightly, choosing the right path could be the most important decision you make in your entire existance - I would not embrace false prophets as Oprah and many others have.

God Bless - and good luck - in your spritual qwest for meaning and understanding - enjoying the journey of discovery is an important and rewarding part of life!

I suggest you to read the following three books:

The Life Divine (pdf) :

Sri Aurobindo's principal work of philosophy.
In this book, Sri Aurobindo presents a theory of spiritual evolution and suggests that the present crisis of humanity will lead to a spiritual transformation of the human being and the advent of a divine life upon earth. The material first appeared as a series of essays published in the monthly review Arya between 1914 and 1919. They were revised by Sri Aurobindo in 1939 and 1940 for publication as a book.

The Synthesis of Yoga (pdf) :

Sri Aurobindo's principal work on yoga.
In this book Sri Aurobindo examines the traditional systems of yoga and provides an explanation of certain components of his own system of integral yoga. There is an Introduction, "The Conditions of the Synthesis", and four parts: "The Yoga of Divine Works", "The Yoga of Integral Knowledge", "The Yoga of Divine Love" and "The Yoga of Self-Perfection". The material was first published serially in the monthly review Arya between 1914 and 1921; the introduction and first two parts were later revised by Sri Aurobindo for publication.

Savitri - A Legend and a Symbol (pdf) :

Sri Aurobindo's major poetic work, an epic in blank verse.
In Savitri, a legend from the Mahabharata becomes the symbol of the human soul's spiritual destiny. In poetic language, Sri Aurobindo describes his vision of existence and explores the reason for ignorance, darkness, suffering and pain, the purpose of life on earth and the prospect of a glorious future for humanity. The writing of the epic extended over much of the later part of his life.

These masterpieces will probably help you a lot.

Follow your heart. There is no way in all of creation will you be led astray!

You can already tell. Bless you.

Everything is right, there is no wrong. There is no reason to argue, unless you are fighting for something you truly believe in. Then you are arguing with yourself. Its all the same. Learn to trust yourself. That is how you will take back your power. I can tell you we allready did, a long long time ago, we are just waiting for you. To do this in your life. We must communicate. When we go its uncontrollable. Life is priceless. These are lessons.

[edit on 19-5-2010 by DarkCyrus]

Sorry if this has already been said, but the old saying applies here. When the student is ready the teacher is found. This should always be kept in mind and when the time is right you will find one.

Peace

Read "Consolation of Philosophy" by Boethius.

bad things happen in the world because of man's attachment to Fortune. If things could be understood from God's perspective there would be no evil seen in the world.

God can do anything but evil, so evil is nothing. It does not exist.

What would the ancient sages tell us?

He that is not easy even to be heard of by many, and even of those that have heard they are many who have not known Him, — a miracle is the man that can speak of Him wisely or is skilful to win Him, and when one is found, a miracle is the listener who can know God even when taught of Him by the knower.

An inferior man cannot tell you of Him; for thus told thou canst not truly know Him, since He is thought of in many aspects. Yet unless told of Him by another thou canst not find thy way there to Him; for He is subtler than subtlety and that which logic cannot reach.

These are excerpts from the Katha Upanishad.

You can find a decent translation of the Katha, Kena and other Upanishads here and here.
