Well dont trust me actually, just give it a go and see how it works.




*ahem*  The following sentence is true.  The preceding sentence is false.

Maybe there's nothing to lose in the first place, so it never mattered...

Distillation..

But seriously.. what do you plan to do with a stronger spirit?



I dunno.  Just a wild thought that I've taken a fancy too.



Then, discovering what you want to strengthen your spirit for is a way of strengthening your spirit maybe. ..if it exists that is of course.  :shrug:



:lol: not  knowledge for the sake of knowing.  Knowledge for a purpose?



No, it's a way to utilise one's own belief in ghosts to motivate action in some direction..

The way I see it, it ispossible that our spirit continues till after death. If that is the case, then I would like to use this time to strengthen my spirit.

It just so happens that the act of strengthening my spirit has resulted in happy experiences that are worthy to me regardless of whether my spirit continues, because quite simply life is more enjoyable when you respect and honour your inner forces.

lots of people say 'well if its true that god exists, you are fucked, atheists!'

but the way I see it, if god exists, it is likely that he wants us to realise our potential here on earth and to simply appreciate the world that he has given us. the first step is to appreciate yourself. To appreicate that even if your free will is predetermined.. somehow... it is still the most you will ever amount to. But once you realise this, you can extend the reaches of your will and thus become limitless



So you think that in order to have a spirit, God must exist?  Would God necessarily know that we exist? 

I've read that the precursor to the soul is a supernatural force.  How do we not know that the spirit doesn't already have some relation to the natural world?  But then, how would we figure that out?  I personally feel that God doesn't have to exist for a spirit to exist.

Anyway, the crux of your argument is enjoy my life by respecting and honoring my inner force.  What do you mean by limitless?

So I should try to manipulate myself?  How does one coerce oneself?  That sounds like a hard one to pull off.

The first bit was in reference to losing the ego.. I'm messing up my posts a bit.. lol. :gethigh:

Not manipulate, that sounds a little nasty, so many connotations, same with coerce..

I like to think of it as playing, but acting as if it's all real. Like a sort of game. It makes doing things so much more enjoyable. You haven't forgotten how to play, have you? :tongue2:

And yea, I'm all about some negative connotations.  I'm sort of caged in that way.  That's why I'd like to strengthen my spirit....Hey!  :cheers: You guys helped me discover my motives for my fickle desire-of-the-day.  :persistence:

So I should become egotistical?  That's a start?  Where's the end?

the beginning and the end are all the same... you will soon realize... its the journey that is key! dont become egotistical but find a healthy medium... balance is key in life! awaken to the silence of the universe and yourself... you shall see that you are everything you are ment to be at this point

Quote:
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
    The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
    Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
    Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
    The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
    The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
    The best lack all conviction, while the worst
    Are full of passionate intensity.

    Surely some revelation is at hand;
    Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
    The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
    When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
    Troubles my sight: a waste of desert sand;
    A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
    A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
    Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
    Wind shadows of the indignant desert birds.
    The darkness drops again but now I know
    That twenty centuries of stony sleep
    Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
    And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
    Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?




Often I find that my center doesn't hold.  Willing myself to do anything seems fruitless if I change from second to second.  Do ya ken?

By the way, thanks for playing with me!:sun: :hi:

I can definitely  agree with the last bit here.  I am that I am.
