Guest guest Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 The faith of everyone is according to their nature O' Bharata. Man is essentially endowed with faith. What his faith is, that indeed he is. Bhagavad Gita: out of the 42 verses Bhagavan selected as his favorite (see collected works). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Namaste, Yes that is the situation on eclectic spiritual boards. Different levels of understanding, capacity and even beliefs. Perception is everything and of course is nothing. I think I knew more when I was a young child and thought God was everywhere/thing, and used to drive 'me Mam' crazy asking what would it be like if the universe hadn't been created. I used to ask her had she ever thought about that. I used to lie in the backyard and look at the night sky and try and imagine nothing. Scratching me brain, I used to call it. Then as we age and get more intellectual we have desires for philosophy and brain food. We want to worship, worship anything that'll fit our ego, Gods, people, energies, whatever---all illusion. That eight or nine year old boy knew more than I do now, he wasn't cluttered with devotions and philosophy and asked the supreme question........ONS..Tony.

Namaste, Continuing on; My mother used to answer that she had never really thought about it. So I asked what would be there if it never was created? She would answer only God would be there. This used to puzzle me also for without a creation what would God do? Why would he be needed?..........ONS....Tony. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
