Besides, refutations and flawed paths, let us not forget the discovered past and unknown current intentional lies put for by science. Most research will require a grant to feed the scientist and his family. If he cannot find results in the research, that pleases his employer, his income will dry...

India is woefully inadequate on psychologists. I think last WHO estimate was 0.07 / 100000 people. I have DID and never met a psychologist here. Just a psychiatrist who prescribed stuff. Before psychiatry we had melancholia and malingering. Mental illness became much more diverse and prevalent...

God's truth is not known solely through scripture. Think on the times that you felt God spoke to you in your heart. When some true revelation of love in the world was revealed to you in the world you live in. Ask within and listen to what answers - the inner critic is not the only being inside...

Main characters are same but the plot is more loose I think. Start I saw was very different from start I read.

I'm reading The Witcher and The Complete Writings of Zhuangzi. One cos I enjoy fantasy, the other cos I wanna learn more about Daoism.

Hmmmm, very well, it was not love so I apologize and hope I caused no harm. My ego is still a force within me. But I would like to point out that I never accused him of arrogance. Only that he was mainly here to disagree, not debate.

Form your own religion from the truths you believe and what path you desire to follow. God can always be found within, not necessarily outside.

Even though I'm not a Christian, that is basically what I believe too. What I also believe, based on personal experience, is unconditional love meaning accepting the darkness within us. No part of you is evil as long as it stays in the mind. No matter how horrific it is. Evil is action, not...

@Aupmanyav is not here for discussion despite that being the focus of this board. Much like a Baptist preacher sticking solely to the Bible as the only truth, he is an atheist sticking to his own personal scripture coming here to preach his faith. Like the Baptist, who preaches antagonistically...

Aye, by the time we are 30 most of us have a deep awareness of it. I had to battle my ongoing fear psychosis issues. It was facing the devil voice in my mind that stopped its ability to make me psychotic. It is still there but no longer as hostile or powerful.

Well everyone has a shadow side, @RJM. We can pretend we don't but that is hiding from the darkness. There must be parts of your self that you feel frightened, ashamed, angry or guilty about. Have you made peace with the darkness within you, when it rises? Do you hold it in your mind when it...

But @RJM, true unconditional love means giving both good and evil a place in our minds. We dont have to obey the evil but we do have to give it a place to be. Running from the parts of you that frighten you will not prepare you to face evil when it rises. The animal flees or fights. Neither...

Aw cmon. Avoiding the darkness is not a good strategy. It is a part of us. We must face it and coexist with it instead. Our light shines brighter in the darkness.

-What is that you believe? 'Goddidit' or something else? -A person who does not believe [Science] is not intelligent. -Oh, you believe only in what you see! Then how come you accept the existence of God and soul? Have you seen any? Plenty more.. Admittedly, 'unintelligent' is not a well-defined...

Well of course. It is pretty much an atheistic and philosophical movement pushing the self and hedonism after all. It's just that I started reading it today and many parts of it, while non-Christian, make a lot of sense. The Church of Satan has no physical building or publicly practiced...

@Cino, @RJM, @TheLightWithin have you read Lavey's Satanic Bible? Or other Satanic scripture?

You say "believing in things without evidence" is unintelligent. I assume you refer to non-empirical things believed by religious theists. Yet science itself has evolved into a form of religion of its own, with its atheistic proponents believing on faith rather than evidence. Many atheists now...

The safety restrictions can be much more relaxed since you are not taking your physical body with you. The soul, or mind, is much more resistant to damage than the body.

The line "The hesychast is to pay extreme attention to the consciousness of his inner world and to the words of the Jesus Prayer, not letting his mind wander in any way at all." in the wiki makes me think it's along the lines of Hindu mantra meditation. There are many paths to the Divine.

@TheLightWithin Every night, as we dream, all of us visit new worlds and leave them as we wake. Some times these worlds can be horrific but we wake with no damage to mind or self. I am aware of the fears some have regarding astral projection. My belief that it is more a form of directed and...
