Thank you! I do understand people like you! Religion does suck, but there are good tips there. When they talk of being already saved, I begin to puke! Yoga does not really admit of a God, unless you are dealing with Bhakti yoga. I was saved from death several times and very mystically. I believe in God because of this. Yet, soul perfection in no way conflicts with this. I am a poor man, thanks to dark side people. I wish I could do this for pennies all my life. My work has to go PUBLIC sooner or later. Thats what I am working on. In any event, you have had the benefit of being the first to read original work. When I rewrite, it will be even better. God was not cornered by religion. I will leave it there!

Any chance you'd consider a blog "soul builder101 for dummies".....or a cliff notes/spark notes version of your posts?
I agree w/ you re: meditation. It is a regular part of my day......each day...(not that one can tell from my pie charts).

Re: To get it clearer in my mind I have taken the liberty of printing out y
Thanks Mariaki! I decide how I want to live! I was born with free will! Evil can deprive me of materials, even try to kill me, but nothing else! I define good and evil because of my morals, virtues and righteousness. 'As it should' in Desiderata implies that its author knows the blueprint of how it is supposed to be, then he compared that to present reality and found that everything was on track! He doesn't know that blueprint! Illusions abound, I don't intend to live them or live like those who do. I am a deep person telling the truths I know. Face value equals superficial. I already did posts on POS/NEG, so I don't feel aggrieved about not subscribing to it! I do have an integrated vision and philosophy rather than a mish-mash of vacuum-type accretions, like the society. What I write about is within my experience. It is legitimate and true. I don't really care if evil people don't like it! Feminists, predators and those who play God for others have no heaven!

To get it clearer in my mind I have taken the liberty of printing out your
post of today, Dave. One wonders who decides "how one should live" and what "truths" are actually true. To what would we compare what is good if there were no "evil" and who defines good or evil. I'm not quite sure why you should slate DESIDERATA, after all is the universe not unfolding as it should? Whilst I commend your research into your chosen subject; it is rather a shame that you cannot take some things at face value and concentrate on directing your endless energy on something more positive in life.... Having said all that please don't take offence as I do so enjoy these mind debates I have with your posts; Take care
