In reference to a question I asked a few posts back, tonight I experienced how "the garbage" comes up when the verbal mind is shut down. It's in the form of images with ideas and emotion attached,...

A better way to word it -- as soon as you're able to understand sin, you are now capable of sinning and must take responsibility for your behavior. I think maybe as soon as people knew what sin...

I've re-read your post snoop, and I want to differ just slightly from what you said. I used to believe exactly the same - that the sin was actually the ignorance of morality. But I'm starting to...

Oh, I'd also like to add, what you described (learning morality the hard way as children, and that being Original Sin that stains you forever) comes entirely from the Ego. "Mine Mine Mine, you can't...

No need to apologize snoop - in fact I ought to retract my own apology and self-imposed restriction on posting more Christian stuff. So far it’s proving to be a very fruitful vein, so why stop mining...

“Christian Mysticism connects ancient religions and Christianity directly to Jung’s Individuation." This line from the previous post requires elaboration. I realized after writing it that anyone...

OK, understood. And it did work up to a point, which is really all you can ask of an example. Yes, it struck me afterwards that that phrasing might have been a bit vague. Also that it might...

OK, it does look like we’re on much the same page—although I’d hesitate to use the boy who cried wolf as an example since it’s a story with a moral. It’s perfectly fine for what it is, but karma only...

As lucid dreamers, there are questions that pretty much all of us ask ourselves sooner or later: are the people, events, places and so on that appear in our dreams real in some sense? Are bad things...

^^ That, I think, might shine some light on your answer, Nfri. Though I wouldn't call it false memory because that implies other stuff, memory might be the culprit here. The unique thing about...

It can be difficult to summon a character or scene from scratch during the dream, even in the best of situations. Drawing from memory during a dream is problematic, because many of the unconscious'...

I've heard of people having as many as 10 dreams in one night. I'd like to know what counts as a dream. In my dream journal, each written entry is usually one long description. Upon waking up, I try...
