A creed for the 21st century : Comments

By Brian Holden, published 24/4/2013

Assuming that you are in the majority, then you have abandoned the religion of your childhood.

Periclueless, because you see the world through blurred, rose-colored glasses, it doesn't mean that everyone does.

Anyway, keep on with your medication and your fantasies. One day, perhaps, you'll join the adult world and recognize and accept reality.

Cheers.

'Later I learned that this planet was in existence for 4500 million years '

No wonder you live in fairy land Brian. Later you will learn that creation reveals a Creator and design requires a Designer. Don't leave it to late.

The universe as described by modern cosmology is just dead flying rocks. Looking out into such a cosmos, though in some sense awe-inspiring, is really terrifying.

What are the implications of the fact that our bodies are made up mostly of water? Especially if you take into consideration the work of Masaru Emoto

Water holds and grants the Power of Life. The principle of Spiritual Life has to do with the transformation of water. It involves a Process in which you free up your solid mortal asana and all of the dismal reductionism that extends from such mortal presumptions, and through which you become transformable, watery, alive, and your spirit-life begins.

The life-force is water. Emotion is water. I is H2O. I = H2O. I, meaning the sense of independent consciousness, or body-mind, equals water. Wherever water can be discovered to be, if you do comprehensive in depth consideration on it, if you enter into its molecular and atomic domain, then there is only H or Happiness.

What are the implications that all of this, including our body-mind-complex is only Conscious Feeling-Energy or Radiant Light.
And what about Consciousness IT-Self?

Has anyone ever noticed that none of the usual arguments about the nature of Reality ever use the word Consciousness with a Capital C, nor do they refer to Light which is the Energy of Consciousness.
Nor do they refer to the all-the-way-down-the-line revolutionary cultural implications of Einstein's famous equation E=MC2.

Modern quantum science tells us that everything is light, that all of reality - every person, every object, every iota of space and time - is nothing but waves in an ocean of light. But what science does not tell us is that light is not merely an impersonal force or a mass of energy. It is CONSCIOUS: it is ALIVE - in fact it is a Great Person of Light, a Radiant being of Infinite Brightness.
Even better put, in REALITY, Light Is the DIvine Person, the Great One, Living as everything, Appearing as everything, and yet, paradoxically, Always and Only Conscious Light.

I have often wondered just what our solar system could be part of. It appears to be an atom, in a molecule, but of what.

Could it be we are part of the building materials used in a wall of a rather large entities kitchen?

Could it be we are part of a piston in a giant engine. That would at least explain our hot & cold periods.

On reflection I have decided we are actually part of a large cow pat, expelled by a very large cow, on a very very large planet, in a somewhat larger universe.

Think on it, it would explain the pile of sh#t we find in Canberra, & most world governing bodies.

Having solved your problem, it is a lovely day here in our pile of you now know what, so I'm going for a drive.

Oh, I hope you enjoy your lunch, now you know what you are eating.

The 'Cosmos', a Creed for the 21st Century?
Ever looking outward, ever searching for answers in the minutiae and the unreachable, the infinitesimal and the infinite?
This is the Grand Answer? Not to "Why we are here" - but we're not allowed to ask that question - and in any case it's the wrong question.
The question should be "What should we do, now that we are here?"
Appreciate the magnificence of the 'cosmos' and of our unique environment, certainly, but this is insufficient - we have to nurture, preserve, and enjoy without destroying.

>.. dissatisfied at being grounded in nothing larger than yourself.<
This identifies the failing both in this 'creed' and in mankind's use and abuse of spirituality - which has served to create division and competition both within and between 'sects', rather than reinforcing and expanding the underlying purpose of bonding 'humanity' as a whole, as one, in the cause of security and certainty for all.
'Religion' has been hijacked in its evolution by small-minded and fallible men with various ulterior motives and objectives.

>Big terrestrial problems become much smaller after your mind becomes a component of the cosmos<
Looking inwardly like this may bring momentary peace, but can change nothing.

Thought of 'God' (in so many forms) (or the hidden 'forces' of the cosmos) was purposed to bind humanity in common interest, but has failed to evolve beyond narrow boundaries, and so has not produced a set of universal 'statutes' or a common understanding for coexistence.

With a creed of common interest no-one would or could seek to dominate or to amass wealth for selfish purpose; and the lowest would not be alone.
"Easter Island' looms, as we seek the wrong answers in the wrong places (and continue to misuse 'God').

Humanity needs to be reassociated with Reality Itself, Truth Itself, Real God. Even in order to support ordinary human life, humanity needs access to the esoteric Truth of existence and the real experience of that Truth.

There must be a resurrection of Consciousness in the 21st century - just as there was a "death" of Consciousness in the 20th. For the sake of humanity, there needs to be a commitment to do this - now, and forever hereafter. Otherwise, people are left with the common dismal exoteric point of view.

Nowadays, there are only sentimental nostalgic gestures towards the ancient esoteric understanding that Consciousness transcends physical existence. The characteristic attitude today is that such beliefs were merely primitive. But, as far as the world-culture is concerned, it is just not going to work anymore to base human life on merely mortal principles. The language and experience of science or mere exoteric religion is not sufficient.Both are bogged down in reductionist materialist presumptions.

Humankind at the end of the 20th century has killed its Deity, in every form that the Deity has been conceived. What is required is Real access to Reality. A New Reformation.
