Some will go dark, many grey but I have to believe there is a higher cause for it all and God/Source/whatever you want name this supreme higher power loves us has a plan for it all. It's easy to judge obviously as it's inherent in our perception but it isn't the goal. Who are we to say anyone is greater than another? Who's to say one person can't rise from the ashes and be a huge positive to society? Who's to say we don't all have the divine in us? What makes one great even? One's heart that could turn cold or bitter? One's intelligence that can be lost in an instant? One's grounded nature that can come unglued in a second? One's accomplishments that can be forgotten, ignored, stolen, blasphemed, undone by one's behavior, etc.? Are we giving our own power to be way to heroes and messiahs by worshipping them versus being grateful for their messages? |

But I also agree that eventually, hopefully, all will see the error. And 'rise above' there own selfishness in action and thought. I reference Utopia... For if you suffer your people to be ill-educated, and their manners to be corrupted from their infancy, and then punish them for those crimes to which their first education disposed them, what else is to be concluded from this, but that you first make thieves and then punish them.” ~Thomas More, Utopia 201...I remember another 201...

Is it really healthy? I was asked once who my heroes were about 9 months ago. I said you guys (my brothers in arms who seek to know themselves and their God.) I said those who are willing to be vulnerable enough to really look at themselves, express their feelings and willing enough to examine themselves, be willing, and do right despite life's "opportunities" for growth. |

This world has gone insane. If I watch the negative happenings on here,and the news,I would'nt be able to sleep at night. Especially to children it bothers me. It seems so many people these days have become thankless ones. I am always greatful for the things I have,even the thought of running hot water when I take a shower,because some people don't have these luxuries. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 31829201 05/06/2013 01:41 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There was a typo "giving our power, to be, away" Are we giving away our own "energy" as it were? I just don't believe people like Jesus and Buddha and other "messengers" would say worship me, worship me as it is "relayed" to people today. People need to work on themselves - not look outside but inside as so many have said for so long. You guys on this thread already know this of course. I like the story of Jesus and the disciples where they were asked who's the christ. They all pointed the finger at the other guy "he's the christ, no he's the christ, no he's the christ." It's ego when all aren't viewed as equals. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 31829201 05/06/2013 02:01 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I agree Pi with you on Nietschke and others for where would we be today. I just think the west lives in a "hero" society with people focused on "glamour" and the religious institutions focused on " messiahs, etc." versus understanding that we all have the opportunity to access the divine and intermediaries aren't absolutely necessary. We can ask for help if we want, of course. Sometimes that help comes unannounced like when Jesus showed up during a healing session for me when I least expected it. |

aether (OP) User ID: 38278041 United Kingdom 05/06/2013 05:55 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The eyes guide the flight, to coast one simply has to use the eyes as a steering wheel, of sorts, the physical movement of the eyes behind eyelids while in altered state directs the direction of hmmm how to describe, the direction of awareness might fit. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 39397839 It's in the eyes... What I find interesting is that the eye is not adapted to deal with ultraviolet light. Cataracts, retinal degeneration,etc,are damage caused especially by light in the UV portion of the spectrum. It's not just man, but other animals as well, that seem ill equipped to deal with the sun's ultraviolet light. Which leads me to wonder why no one seems to have followed up on this: [link to www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov] My question here would be what caused that split in evolutionary development between these two species. And maybe important to the Saturn hypothesis, is when did this split start (and how fast can the split occur). Also do we see changes in ascorbic acid in other animals over time (maybe indicating evolution still occuring in adapting to our modern sun?). If changes to our solar system were as recent as Saturn theory suggests, maybe mice are at an advantage in adapting, since they produce more generations in a given period of time? Quoting: observationI guess what puzzles me the most is that with all the different eye adaptations we do see between animals, so many different species just happen to be stuck when it comes to finding a way to deal with UV? It does seem most likely that our earth in the fairly recent past, was not lit by such a UV source as our current sun. [link to www.thunderbolts.info] Last Edited by aether on 01/27/2014 01:31 PM |
