Can you sense? Can you smell? Can you feel it? How do you know you are alive? Safe? How do you know you are free? If a spiritual practice does not include the honoring of your physical body—and your right to protect yourself—it is incomplete. Most ‘New Age’ thought is a permutation of Christianity, or some other religious philosophy. Though at the heart of these religions there are usually some unifying principles such as ‘Do unto others as you would have others do unto you.’ In practice these religions become, and are actually designed to be dogmatic and controlling.
I don't really know what to say other than yes, yes and yes again. Your writing is going deeper and deeper and it is so beautiful to read and think on.
This is a topic near and dear to my heart. What is that force, or field, or swarm of entities, that preys on humanity? Our instincts need to be sharpened by healthy living and conscious attention to them. I appreciate your relentless pursuit and the support you give people, Justice.
Now I've had more hours to contemplate this. Now I've considered stories from Indians. I've listened to Indians, both North American and red-dot Indians. Swamis, you could say. I propose that by confining oneself to instincts is to miss assistance available from our much bigger, energetic self, and the true Divine energies of Nature, what Indians, Egyptians and Pagans would call Gods and Goddesses. But actually I don't think you meant to exclude them, you were just talking about insticts. I propose religion replaces these Divine Intelligences of Nature with a Life-hating image of psychopathic human despots. Religion then inserts a Chosenite ideology of tribal supremacy that allows "the Othered" to be tortured, enslaved or murdered. Thus trammeling our natural human benevolence.
Thank you, For making me realize. I'm not the only one who thinks this way.
Very much appreciated.
