are all people lost without knowing God?
No.
lost souls, restless spirits, unfinished lives, are they lost or incomplete?
This is known as an Endless Knot, tis an ancient symbol (carvings date back to 2500BC.) It is an adequate symbol, adequate symbol means a piece of information which will...

omg I have to read that! Mark Twain is amazing! One of the few writers I laugh out loud reading.
One more thing I want to say about this divine humor thing is...in the universe we are all equals more or less. It is a perfect system where we all matter. This makes all other beings who...
Thats about 10% of it, as much as language and my personal limitations permit.
I dont know. I´d say I am no one. I´d say there is no one home, so to speak. And herein is where the divine humor component comes in. Absolutely nothing and everything at the same time. And nothing feels better than...
The experience of Divine humor fundamentally revolves around this eternal game in which consciousness plays hide and seek with itself. All the jokes go back to this. This is understood as Illussion, as 'the snake in the string,' or hinted in jesus' saying 'Truly I tell you, unless you change and...
Indeed. It is:

Whether visible or invisible,
And those living far or near,
The born and those seeking birth,
May all beings be happy!

If it were not so, would you still believe?
I wouldn't. Being indoctrinated into the whole Biological Robot/reductionist materialist thing and influenced by the popularity of atheism in the first world (which says something about what makes humans lose connection to themselves and their role in...
@Cino I think I have understood correctly, yet I see that I have not made a clear, good answer. To keep it short: "If you do this you will get something" is a true statement (seed=crop.) You cant argue with a fact. Further, spiritual people are well known for doing good acts with no desire of...
As all science and evidence seems to indicate and has been the understanding since time immemorial right until the pushback and extremism of the The Era of Enlightment which implicitly indoctrinates the idea that we are Biological Robots which only exist to be runned by our Robot brains and that...
When walking a small lizard comes in your path right as your foot descends. You stop and jump backwards and say 'woof, I almost stepped on that lizard!'
Evil is born out of ignorance. Yet the kingdom of heaven resides within. So how does one who is born out of the earth, out of god, do evil? One may eat animals not knowing the process of Factory Farming, in doing so one is a direct acomplice to evil doing in the world. This cruelty is treated as...

Good book. Solaris too! On the same theme I found Contact to be the most mature novel on the matter, a perfect work, and Jodie Foster was great in the movie too.

You dont think it is nourishing to be compassionate in a non material sense? How is being compassionate material?
To answer the question; what you are calling material and striving is merley sitting down by yourself and being undistracted from the concentration of present awareness...
It seems to be a modern phenomena picked up at the turn of the 18th century with man's subsequent alienation from nature. In nature men understood higher powers because everything is a higher power than man (the predators, the sea, the wind, the rain, the fruit and everything is interconnected...
