    I think she's talking about taking the power back from your thoughts, being the king of your mind.

    Can You Choose What You Believe?

    Personally, I do not think we choose our beliefs. Our beliefs are the fruits of our experiences.

    spirituality, sexuality, & gender

    The idea that God sees beyond appearances and that the angels and God are beyond gender helps me be more accepting of people in the LGBT. Because I think we're all essentially playing roles, like we're in a play, and on a higher level our souls aren't defined as masculine or feminine. To me...

    What religious/spiritual practices do you do?

    I've done some lucid dreaming and it was a valuable experience for me. A lot of the time I'll read from spiritual related books or watch videos on that sort of a subject.

    I've seen a couple of their videos. Some are better than others by far and this could be my favorite. Here is a quote from it, "The key is that they have to break the intuition of the individual so that they no longer trust themselves. The loss of trust is a form of self-evacuation. You're...

    Reasons to be grateful for life's challenges

    As cliche as it might sound the phrase "without suffering there'd be no compassion" does ring true to me. Sometimes when someone is different from us we only begin to see them as human when we notice they can hurt the same way we do. And if we hadn't hurt ourselves we wouldn't relate to them...

    Heaven

    It gets a bit complicated because there are two different aspects of the discussion. One is the state of those in heaven before the resurrection and one is the state after. As Paul says, "Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed— in an instant, in the...

    Heaven

    I appreciate the great response. Nothing really to add except, "Even so, come, Lord Jesus come."

    Why so complicated?

    I agree with what the 14th Dalai Lama said, "Now, as to the nature of the actual preparation itself, this will depend on each individual's depth of spiritual aspiration. For example, if an individual is simply seeking a favorable rebirth as a human being, there is no need to engage in a...

    Heaven

    I could be wrong but I think heaven is different than people expect. For most it's more like a very pleasant time of dreaming of those you love and doing things you enjoy. It's experienced the way the average person dreams, they are asleep in this heavenly dream, not awake or lucid. Very few are...

    The Inner Guru and Insight

    The evolution of consciousness appears to me to be the most logical reasoning for our existence based on what I've seen of the world. What the end result is, whether its becoming world creators ourselves, assisting The One in higher realms, etc. I cannot say for sure.

    Despised, or Misunderstood, Because of the Name Luke 6:22

    I get people who don't believe in God saying negative things to me and people who believe in God differently than I do saying negative things to me lol.

    The Virtual World Conspiracy Theory

    "All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players." - Shakespeare I've heard similar ideas to what you're saying and at the very least would agree that the world is not what it seems. The exact details of what is going on and why are more difficult to suss out.

    Favourite New Testament Gospel

    It's been a while since I've read them in full but I'll say John. The perspective created by opening it not with his earthly birth yet instead on his primordial existence gives it such a powerful beginning. Nicodemus asking, "How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter his mother's womb a...
