Traditional ministers speak of a piece of God or 'god-spark' being within all of us.

The first Sikh Guru, Guru Nanak Dev Ji, had once put it, Ever-Existent, He is Naam (Conscious Spirit), when speaking of God. A spirit unmanifested, but manifest everywhere and in everything, a spirit to be found only through the deepest states meditation whilst penetrating the deepest roots of our mind.
Conventional religion divides us not from only eachother, but from the true God essence, which is found not objectively, but within ourselves.

Sounds like you are a deep meditator and that you derive great satisfaction from what you feel when "down."
If the essence of Spirit and God is Love, is it not wise then to cultivate the Radiance of Love in order to improve upon one's divine connection?

Hi Raphael,
Thank you so much for giving us a link to the Melvin Morse interview which goes into detail about his revelation about souls to God and fractals! I knew of his experience from a documentary and didn't have a link for that.
I do disagree with some of the other things you teach concerning the nature of God. I also believe some of your methods can be dangerous and can limit spiritual growth.

There are always a number of ways to reach a goal, and if that goal be God, then the paths are infinite. I'am not familiar with our freinds methodology and philosophy, so I can't judge, but it seems that he is quite content with the love he has found, may it be within himself, or an objective divinity.
We each seem to have a difference bias, bias which would should share and learn from, some paths do cross....

Different paths, same path is a matter of perspective. Right path, wrong path as well. Those paths which encourage duality create boxes within boxes or fields within fields. This can limit one's search for understanding.
The danger of which I speak, is that of the Chakras. Or more precisely, the weaknesses created by too much energy in a particular Chakra.
