KR's Religioius Practice Thread

[kr1963]

But since I started this thread I am curious do you believe in reincarnation? I got the sense from one of your post that you might.

Do I believe in the exact eastern system of "reincarnation?" NO. Do I believe that we have lived before & will live again? YES.

I do not of course, because I do not believe we exist as a separable identity when we rejoin the source, although I do believe that the energy from whence we all emanate is the same source and therefore when we return to it, it somehow absorbs the finding we learn in this life form

That is based upon the assumption that once the body dies, we spiritually & automatically go back to this "source." This is not necessarily the case.

This was the area I was going to address n another thread as it is a mental healing system of which I am a practitioner. One can do it without getting into spiritual beliefs or religion. Yes it does help people to heal emotionally & it helps accelerate physical healing. As I said I will do that in another section.

I believe in the power of positive thinking. I believe we are responsible for our own happiness, if we think happy thoughts, if we have positive thoughts we will be healthier and happier on the whole. It is not a big secret most people will tell you that. If you have a system to help people remain more positive, more power to you, I do it on my own without anyones aid, don't know how I do it, just comes naturally.

Not talking about positive thinking but the healing of the mind. Continue that discussion here:

I believe there is a collective consciousness through the one and only source of life, the energy that has existed along with all other matter and energy of the Universe forever.

That is based upon the assumption that once the body dies, we spiritually & automatically go back to this "source." This is not necessarily the case.

And here we will have to respectfully disagree. There is only one place for the energy that was given to us on loan to go after death and that is back to the source from whence it can be doled out again, of course not as an individual and complete separate energy again but as something that is part of the One and Only Source.<o></o>

I believe there is a collective consciousness, (CC) through the one and only source of life, the energy that has existed along with all other matter and energy of the Universe forever.

The CC has been around "forever" (OK) AND the physical universe has been around forever too? Is that what you are saying? Surely not...

I got that you believe that. I respectively submit that you will find that it is not quite as easy as it sounds. It would be nice if it were so but the things a being accumulates living in this universe makes that "journey" back to the CC something that is NOT a foregone conclusion. There is no free pass back home.

No that is not what I am saying, what I am saying is that the matter and energy that makes up the Universe as we see it today has always existed and will always exist, it is one and the same with the CC. There is no separating them, together they make up all that is, all that was and all that will ever be.

You are wrong KR. There is no other place for the energy that we recieved and allows us to live to go. It is not a separate entity and only exists through that original energy and must go back to it when the physical shell ceases to exist.

How can he be wrong about his own beliefs? Why would you start a thread to ask him about his beliefs just to tell him he is wrong?

This is what I was talking about, scale it back you are starting to attack his beliefs.

BTW, unless you are incapable of understanding plain English, his previous comment said my beliefs were wrong just as much as my followon comment told him his are wrong. Point is we happen to disagree on things which is fine for anyone who has a pair of nads.
