Yeah true I don't know that. I bet someone somewhere has sat in their temple and they've really connected to God.
Jesus told us you don't need damn temples to talk to god. God is within us, and all around us. I know non believers roll their eyes when I get all mystical about it but some days I really want to say: "Fuck you, the world is not only what you can perceive with your five senses". But there's no point in getting angry because someone doesn't get the same stuff as you, that doesn't fix it. You can't smack sense into people. I know, I've tried. They tend to be all focusing on the fists and stinging words rather than the message and become reactive rather than proactive.
So yes, I can't say 100% other religions don't help people on their spiritual path. I can say that mainstream religion and mainstream atheism does a damn good job of controlling people and making sure they'll never be spiritually awakened, and that pisses me off. I spend a lot of time wondering where we'd be without the dark ages, without Rome. What a world would be like if Carthage was not destroyed by Rome. What if the Greek city states didn't get subjugated, what if the magna carta was never signed?
I wonder what would the world be like today if Tesla was allowed to achieve his goal, had JP Morgan not been so short sighted and realised he could have been even more wealthy if all the world had free energy.
I wonder what the world would be like if instead of people being cowed into submission over terrorism, hell, global warming, communism stopped living in fear, and instead were allowed to be in a higher state of consciousness, a more creative state of consciousness.
We could be in the stars. WE COULD BE IN THE GODDAMN STARS! But no. We have my little pony, thundercats (seriously? why not bring back he man whilst everyone's got a hard on for crappy 80's cartoon/toy adverts) and Jersey shore, whilst people who want to sound intellectual think it's wise to say things like "Well we just have too many people and something needs to be done". And they relish their smug self satisfaction, reading and watching various depopulation propoganda, regurgitating it over and over like a mantra, whilst never looking back into even recent history, never suspecting that hey, they might be duped.
This is why I like to think for myself. It doesn't mean I'll be more correct than those parroting what they've seen, but it'll be from my heart and my head, when I learn where I am wrong, I can correct that and better myself. I'll learn. I will be my own sovereign being, always, always being careful when learning from others not to ape them because I'd be a poor imposter, and I'd loose myself in the process.
Ehh, Ego Death. If anything, psychedelics have reconnected me to my spiritual nature. I am an individual, different and distinct from each of you, just like no two leaves on a tree being the same, but from a distance looking all the same. I am aware there is an interconnection there, the interconnection that is often called love, which I call love. I understand why people would want that all the time, but this sober time alone from others, alone with ones thoughts is an equally valid and just as important part of existance.
I do often think about plants such as mushrooms and cactus, as well as derivatives such as LSD and DMT. There is a profound sense of joy when using them. Is this a glimpse of the infinite? Of the eternal love which we came from and shall return to? But always these visionary tools are teachers. They exist to teach us lessons. Learning is fun and exciting, but sometimes lessons can be harsh, challenging and humbling. I have had my fair share of the latter lessons in this life, so hopefully even though the highly impersonal medium of the written word the gist of this will be "Passionate and thoughtful." rather than "self aggrandising cock"
Boy, it feels good to get that off of my chest.
