    Have you experienced a state of nonduality/infinity/oneness?

    True enough. Everybody has their set of conditions and the full set is unique for all, including me. Everyone has their thought set of conditions for ideal living in this reality. And we are fully entitled to them Even the right not to share them. Of course, the point of conflict may arise when...

    Have you experienced a state of nonduality/infinity/oneness?

    True, the past action of hate towards the victim can never be undone. But future actions of hate towards the hater does nothing to undo the action either. But forgiveness towards the hater and rehab attempts may be an expression of love that heals much more than lifelong imprisonment. Didn't...

    Have you experienced a state of nonduality/infinity/oneness?

    Well, some might say these abusers became so because they themselves faced abuse during their childhood and time of mental development. That showing them love on Earth, instead of hate, even after they have committed crimes, would truly be the way of God. Is it unconditional love, if God says...

    Your posts, much like abstract poetry, can be hard to decipher sometimes Wendy. Are you trying to say that the unconditional love of the heavens will accept all? Including murderers, rapists and even pedophiles?

    Have you experienced a state of nonduality/infinity/oneness?

    While it's true that I have no proof, even to myself, for a divine being controlling this reality, it is true that I have experienced divine, infinite consciousness. I did not experience as being in an Earthen reality. I did not experience another divine being there, just the presence of all...

    Have you experienced a state of nonduality/infinity/oneness?

    Our brain cannot stay happy with too much of anything for long. It longs for new experiences instead of constant repetition. Imagine a life like: - Everybody did not have to do any work to get what you wanted to stay happy. A machine would get all physical items they wanted. - No one would catch...

    Have you experienced a state of nonduality/infinity/oneness?

    Since I have strong mental illnesses, I am open to the idea that what I experienced was just caused by material changes in my brain. But science and many others get too hung up on the cause of an experience, and less so on the meaning. I don't care who/what caused my experience. I am more...

    Man? Humans? Pinacle of creation? LOL

    If you reread my message, you can see that I specifically wasn't talking about plants as saviors by being our food but rather as modifiers of our breathable air. You seem intent on absolutes. Yes, many lifeforms dont need oxygen to survive. But many do as well. And in the interconnectedness of...

    On Subordinationism

    Did Jesus ever refer to himself as the Son of God? And, even if he did, didn't he also refer to others as his brothers and sisters? One take on that could be that we are ALL children of God. And he worked towards helping others realize their God-nature as well. But possibly the Christian Church...

    Man? Humans? Pinacle of creation? LOL

    Well, without plants, even if we somehow managed to produce the veggie food we need to live, we would die. To put it in brief: Oxygen is a critical component of the Earth's atmosphere and is necessary for the survival of most living organisms. Plants are the primary producers of oxygen through...

    Indian Supreme Court on forced religious conversion

    I see. So, your beef with interfaith is only when Hindu women/men go Muslim/Xtian? Strange. I see that as a bit of tunnel vision there. Almost a form of phobia of specific religions. Children may be "pressurized to change their religion" but I sincerely doubt women and men can be. First claim of...

    Indian Supreme Court on forced religious conversion

    Xtianity is not as large a community as Muslims in India. And the once loving Hindu people are becoming very nationalist spurred on by the, now ruling, BJP party. Their actions are, for now at least, more hateful towards Muslims than towards Xtianity/Buddhism and my guess is that the so-called...

    Have you experienced a state of nonduality/infinity/oneness?

    Just because some deceive does not mean automatically that all do. The link I sent did have some examples of corroborated visual experiences. But, hell, in a reality where wealth is often espoused as a path to happiness, I realize that many researchers may misrepresent data in the hope of...

    This may not be true, as there is some indication that even the congenitally blind show some indication of sight during some NDEs. I point you and @Aupmanyav towards: https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc799333/m2/1/high_res_d/vol16-no2-101.pdf

    Have you experienced a state of nonduality/infinity/oneness?

    Well, all that the biological aspects of our brain can do it understand reality through the senses. Which is ultimately an illusion according to quantum science and ancient religions both. When the senses die, there is no need for consciousness to die. It is possible to be aware of awareness...

    Have you experienced a state of nonduality/infinity/oneness?

    There is no reason for anyone to believe those things if they don't want to. I wonder if your mispelling of Bible was accidental. 😅 I found that being infinite also meant being unconditional love. There was no superior being. All beings were one. I realize it could have just been a brain state...

    Have you experienced a state of nonduality/infinity/oneness?

    Then my guess is you haven't read the Bible. Or at least the New Testament. Or just maybe not John. In any case, the Bible was created by the official Christian Church. Not Jesus. Also, I have had more success seeking God within myself, rather than in trying to interpret secondary texts from...

    Warnings are nothing more than threats. But loving an offender by teaching him how to love himself and others and, at the same time, teaching him how to earn a living by legal means is the best way to wean someone off the path of evil...

    Have you experienced a state of nonduality/infinity/oneness?

    Well, yeah. For now, since I am able to accept much, I reckon it don't matter what's around the corner as long as I can deal with what's starin' me in the face. Anyways, all this pondering of the afterlife is just an offshoot of fear...or worry rather. My personal experience with my psychosis...

    Have you experienced a state of nonduality/infinity/oneness?

    Our laws are woefully inadequate as methods to correct evil. In fact, countries that have created prisons that are loving and non-restrictive are the ones that have had the most success in removing some evil from society. Love heals, not punishment.
