what is your god?
    #1364402 -

For balancing purposes.

My God is nature, the trees, the sky, the stars, the sun, the water..holy fuck..you ever look at the Sun and think how amazing it is. I mean shit, here we are walking around this giant ball of mass going about our lives, barely taking the time to think how fucking grateful we are for being alive just because of this burning ball of plasma 97 million miles away, that is not too far, but just close enough that we have ideal conditions. It sustains us, this massive ball of light.. I feel God in it's warmth, when it touches my forehead, I feel joy..love.. gratefullness for being alive. It sends impulses of energy through my body, and I feel connected.

My God is in loving relationships. When two or more people interact in harmony utlizing love and compassion, and recognizing the laws of free will and choice, that is my God. When someone does something to help someone, just out of pure compassion for human, nothing more, that is my God. When people come together, and put aside their stupid prejudices and biased views, and simply come together as human, raw, that is my god.

My God exists within every living thing. Sometimes, people try and cover it up with negative emotions, and illusions..but I can still see it. My God is everywhere... and I exist within it, as a part of it. It is a part of me.

My God is love, pure..compassionate, unconditional love. My God is interested in Creation and Evolution. My God is free will and sovereignity. My God is freedom..joy..laughter..

My God is the ineffable nothingness at the center of creation. I try and wrap my mind around it but all I'm doing is defining nothingness by its boundries...

God is the Center.
it is the fountainhead of love and inspiration.
it is all that has come before and all that is to come.
God is Now.

God is the fire that burns inside.
it is the fire that sheds the conquered soul.
it is the fire that cleanses from within.
God is light.

God is the singularity beyond the event horizon, forever out of sight.
Yet its influence pervades all things.
God is the immutable laws of physics.

God is on my mind.
God is the vastness.
God is in my mind.
God is the warm embrace of inner space.
God is on my side.

God is transcendence.
God is everything that isn't.
God is the infinite iteration of Love.

The God of which I speak is not the True God.
The God that can be known is not the True God.

God is unknowable, lest you know Madness.

Anyone's god is what they think about the most when they have free time on their hands.

So I guess for me it would be mushrooms.

my god is made up of those warm fuzzy moments of revelation that step into your head from out of nowhere and strip away all notions of loneliness and desperation and let you sit there and be a living breathing human on a living breathing planet.

i'd consider my god to be nature.

however... the thing that i think about most in my free time is running, but i consider this to be more of a way to get in touch with my true self, not too different from how i feel about meditation.

The sun and the infinite creator. I suppose freedom is my main mental focus. I need to be free of all these artificial rules and regulations imposed on me by other silly human beings. After I accomplish that I will reformulate my goals to perhaps give my view of freedom more depth.

I feel that we are all God. I do think that there is a higher power out there but not nessacarily one that has it all mapped out. We all create our own system of checks and balances and everything we do (negative or positive) effects everyone around us. I love the shroomery, it makes me realize that there are others out there like me, and maybe I'm not so weird. Thanks for being here guys and for all of your inspiration, even the negative because sometimes that can be the most thought prevoking for me. :grin:

Existence.


--------------------
To call humans 'rational beings' does injustice to the term, 'rational.'  Humans are capable of rational thought, but it is not their essence.  Humans are animals, beasts with complex brains.  Humans, more often than not, utilize their cerebrum to rationalize what their primal instincts, their preconceived notions, and their emotional desires have presented as goals - humans are rationalizing beings.

my god is money. i don't really want it to be, but i think that almost everything i do in my life is done for money. i choose this because i choose to be in a society where everything is about money. everything surrounding us costs money. keeping ourselves alive and well requires money. no money means death. therefore by me choosing to live in this society that i was born into with out anyone asking me, i choose to let money be my god. i choose to work for the majority of my life where i'm not asleep. if i didn't have to get money then i could have the options to make my life about many other things. but instead i spend each day working, only because i need the money to live the life that is as close to what i would want out of life if money were not an issue. but the very fact that money is an issue makes me do things that i probably would not want to do if i didn't have to do them for money. so i'm sort of caught in a paradox called life that seems as if it will never change until i die.

my other god is love. love does consume my life. but when it comes down to it, the money that i make is to help to keep the life that i want to love every other person, and especially one person. but instead i'm trapped the god of money. i live in a society where the rich rule. they are often thought of as geniuses simply because they had the ability in there life to make lots of money. we as a society let them influence our lives in immeasureable ways.

so i'm not saying that i like to have money as my god, but it just seems that tourch was passed to me in my life. will i pass it on as well? that is a question that time can only tell, but at least the mushrooms helped to show me that everything is not quite as it seems. and knowledge is the key. the key to something...

I was just thinking about this annoying concept myself. It is funny that we have all agreed to this shitty society. The only true fix for myself I can concieve is escape from it. I know it is quite selfish too. What else can we do? Maybe if we shun it, it will fall apart. haha... Time is money we chant. from dusk til dawn.
