Good to see you, too, seattlegal!

Long story short: I prayed in my kitchen, last night, and today it would seem Will Smith has apologized to Chris Rock. Gotta mow the grass. Will watch video later. Seems that I weren't the only one what prayed. And I did want them to do it right after that thing happened. Yet finally I spoke...

Hi, wil. Long time no see. How goes things? What snew with you? ;-) ~Andrew (Lee, Taijasi, whatEVEr)

Is it right to "try" other religions? Of course it is ... if yours doesn't "work." So we must correlate work with try. And the simplest approach I know is to look at the Latin root of the word `religion.' It means "to tie" or "to bind back" [religare]. Some theologies, including esoteric...

Ex nihilo, nihil fit Fail to grasp the significance of this statement, and all else in one's philosophy and theology will suffer as a result. For example, we err when we are always seeking to extricate God from the intricate, tightly-knit WEB that weaves together ALL LIFE, every atom and...

'Last Supper' Papyrus May Be One of Oldest Christian Charms - NBC News It reads in part: "Our God prepared a sacred table in the desert for the people and gave manna of the new covenant to eat." ... from NBC News Science

Nick, I had always placed Siva as corresponding with `The Father' in Christianity. In one sense, I think this author agrees - and I'll hold to that. Brahma I would have said is Holy Spirit and Third Logos, yet this article suggests that Siva also appears as `The Father' ... Then there's...

This segment of a teaching on The Three Logoi was especially refreshing for me, while ago. There are several points I was confused about, or feel I have always had straight - but didn't. And how may I confirm any of them? Indeed, how to address that ... The Three Logoi

Here is a mantram that comes to mind, relevant to the discussion and touched upon by some of these posts ... In the center of the Will of God I stand. Naught shall deflect my will from His. I implement that will by love. I turn towards the field of service. I, the Triangle divine, work out that...

I am reminded of the book, `As a Man Thinketh' ... and the expression I've heard in esoteric circles which affirms: Where attention goes, energy flows.

Only because we're on a Christian/Abrahamic forum, I'd have to go with the more conventional definition that `God' is the Father, Son and Holy Ghost/Spirit - exactly as most Christians affirm and loosely recognize. This is the Trinity, as it's come to be defined. But ask your resident theologian...

Pray that the Will of the Soul work itself out in your life, and - through you - in the lives of those around you ... the lives of all those with whom you come into contact. While it may sound simple, and it is, and while this very much sounds like you are leaving the ball in `God's court' - and...

Snake worship is about kundalini, the coiled serpent, or serpent-fire which in one sense is responsible - being the active correlate to and expression of the Principle of Buddhi - for all of Creation. Worshipping the reptile in some blind, unthinking sense is as silly as worshipping rocks, dirt...

Reject what you like. Graft is graft. The Tree of LIFE grows on. Know Truth, Know Life No truth ... no life. ;)

Further thoughts, as a follow-up ... Meanwhile, the World Teacher appears to the world in three ways which the person of spiritual inclination (although not necessarily of a religious mindset) is likely to recognize. The quotation that follows is excerpted from Alice Bailey's Externalization of...
