Just some stuff going through my head as I wait to see if things will be changing in my world tomorrow.
It's an integral part of all humanity, human existence, and well everything human to recognize the truth that there is something greater than us all. Over the centuries and possibly longer we have come up with all kinds of ideas as to what this "greater aspect" is and what it's all about. However out of all the interpretations of this "greater aspect" as everything from gods to the fundamental workings of the universe, the fact remains that no matter how you label it, the greater aspect exists. To deny it is to deny one of the greatest truths of existence. At least from our limited human standard.
I think the problem is that so many people are caught up in the limited views, beliefs, and dogma that has been generated to poorly define the "greater aspect" of the universe, they loose sight of this truth of existence.
I admire the and respect atheists, agnostics, and related people (many who are friends) for their desire to deny God in favor of rational and realistic thought. Most all of them want to bring some sense, thought, and order to things. This is something I am all about. The only way we are going to progress is not get bogged down in dozens of conflicting opinions and views.
I admonish them however to take time to realize that the thing they truthfully deny (and rightfully so in many respects) is the limited views of God, and not God that defines represents the "greater aspect". If you go so far as to say there is no "greater aspect", you are truthfully closing YOUR mind and creating a view as limited as those people out there who say the King James Version of the bible is only truth, the literal truth, and that's the way it happened. Sadly this is what is happening quite a bit. I wish people would see this more, it might help to clear up a few things. In short folks, rebel against the party line of what the concept is, but don't throw the concept out the window! If you are about keeping an open mind, don't close an aspect because you don't agree with how the aspect is presented or supposedly defined.
If this "greater aspect" exists then what is it? This is something that you must find out and define for yourself. For no church, shaman, priest, yogi, budda, wise man, pastor, synagoge, scientist, theorist, or otherwise learned person can entirely tell you is right. Everyone has a piece of the puzzle, it's up to you to discover it in your personal search and creation of belief to get the facts and create an understanding. You also have to realize that nobody is going to have the entirely same view as you do, however you will recognize that which no matter what is the same.
Perhaps one day I'll go about explaining myself better, heck maybe even write a book.
I think it's time that people quit denying what is out there and truthfully search for it for once rather than getting bogged down and closing their minds, on both ends.
Ok enough of the deep thought, back to the everyday for the time being. |
