    A question about an experience

    I could answer this question without skipping a beat I've read and pondered so much. The thing is, I've never experienced. Are the spirits likely to represent what I read in books or think they should be like? Do you have any tips on how to experience this Spirit World/Dreamworld. If much of...

    A question about an experience

    Hello, all. I've been having a sort of spiritual crisis this holiday season. I've felt sort of empty and whatnot. I am of no particular religion but more of a seeker in the act of seeking. So, last night before I went to bed (my whole house was already asleep), I got the strong urge to take a...

    Sikhism: Ask your questions

    Sorry if this has already been asked, but how do Sikhs feel about syncretism? You, Odion, are a Dharmic Syncretist by religion. The gurdwara (sp?) in my city says it is open to non-Sikhs as well. How would they feel if, say, a Christian attended and wanted to blend beliefs? Or a pagan? Or any...

    Hello

    I agree. Learning Chinese right now so I can attempt to get a better perspective of Chinese texts. I'm a polyglot, partly because of the importance of reading religious texts in the original. I have books on Hebrew, Arabic, New Testament Greek, Old Norse, and Cree. I realise the importance as...

    Hello

    Yeah, but I've never heard the claim that the Bible or the Laozi aren't valid if you read them in English. I talked to a Muslim roommate once and asked him about his religion and he said you needed to read the Koran in Arabic. We sound similar! I quite appreciate nature, travelling, etc. I...

    Hello

    I'm... A bad people person. How would you suggest finding practitioners to speak to and such? I think it would be weird if I just went to a temple/church/mosque/etc. and just walked on in. The Gita is beautiful! Read some of it for my Hinduism class next year. It's on my book wishlist. Any...

    Hello

    I'm not sure what sort of practices I need yet. I already have a lot of what I believe figured out in my head, it's just two major details that I think are important: (1) if I believe in gods are useful/a powerful enough symbol to deserve worship and (2) how do I make religion part of my...

    Hello

    Hey there! I'm a religious studies major in university and I'm attempting to embark on a late-blooming spiritual path that I think would like to begin now. I was baptised Christian as a child but my parents were very liberal about religion. My dad is more of an animistic pagan than...
