Being God

[RedDragon94]

I had a deeply profound thought on facebook that I want to discuss with all you deep thinkers.

If God is alive then live knowing he is always with you, if he is dead do the same. Be the God you envision. Agree or disagree, and why?

Who is God to you and do you embody that character quality?

I hope that all is well.

Disagree.

God cannot die in my belief.

Disagree.

Would you like to answer the second question anyway?... I'm gonna edit the opening thread.

God to me is the Greatest.

He created us and he is loving and caring.

I have true respect for him.

 

[Riverwolf]

Well, when I play God-games, I try to be kind of a peacekeeper, but not exactly in a wise fashion... more in a naive way.

 

[RedDragon94]

God to me is the Greatest.

Are you the best person you could possibly be?

Are you loving and caring?

And... Are you respectable?

I guess my point is if we don't abide by the principles of our God-concepts, we're hypocrites.

 

[EtuMalku]

I don't believe there to be any such thing as an external deity such as a God. In our Beliefs each of us have a Higher Self and this becomes the only god we ever come to know. This True Self is our core being, it is an unchangeable, permanent part of the Self. It is unique, indestructible and not directly observable, yet it is why you have come to be aware of your own existence.

Well someone has to be. I'm a mystic and that's probably the cause of my searching. If I'm not wanted here you just tell me.

 

[RedDragon94]

This True Self is our core being, it is an unchangeable, permanent part of the Self.

And are you confident and steadfast in you beliefs?

unique, indestructible and not directly observable

What's something about you that sets you apart?

Are you confident in yourself?

And, are you able to conceal yourself from danger?

Basically are you one with that higher self?

 

[EtuMalku]

And are you confident and steadfast in you beliefs

I had better be! I started an entire organization based on this principle! LOL!!

What's something about you that sets you apart?

Apart from what?

Are you confident in yourself?
And, are you able to conceal yourself from danger?

I don't see what these have to do with what we are talking about, please elaborate.

Basically are you one with that higher self?

Not as often as I'd like to be . . . but, I'm working on it

If God is alive then live knowing he is always with you, if he is dead do the same. Be the God you envision. Agree or disagree, and why?

I agree. Even should the gods/spirits end up proving to simply be parts of my mind, they still benefit me as standards and ways to explore my consciousness.

Who is God to you and do you embody that character quality?

There are countless gods to me...though I do try to embody the qualities that they represent.

 

[RedDragon94]

Apart from what?

Apart from everyone else.

I don't see what these have to do with what we are talking about, please elaborate.

Are you indestructible?
I guess directly observable would be... extroverted?

Though I don't care to use the term god, I don't have any other appropriate word. Who is god to me? Life. Yes, weird way to say it, we are all god. No separation.

I agree to being the god you envision. If you envision a god of love, find a way to manifest that love within you. If it (or him or they) make you peaceful, find that peace within god/s.

I have a knack of creativity and the arts. Writing, poetry, ritual, etc are my prayers. That's how I embody the character of god. That keeps me intune with life.

How to find peace with other people and myself is always a growing process. Right now, I'm doing that with family.

If you mean god as an entity, "he" is dead to me. I don't believe in deities.

How would I envision and embody a god that is dead to me?

 

[RedDragon94]

There are countless gods to me...though I do try to embody the qualities that they represent.

Hope that you acquire all those traits, not only for yourself, but for the sake of your world.

I think....God and Man are separate
and intended to stay that way.....even in heaven

if the mind of God and the mind os any individual should join....
the quality of being individual is lost

not much point in making 7billion+ copies of a learning device.....to from individuals....
only to lose that trait at the first meeting of the minds

 

[RedDragon94]

How would I envision and embody a god that is dead to me?

Well then I would ask the person if they are satisfied with life. Because if the thing they admire most about life is death what keeps them from going to that place?

 

[Baladas]

Well thank you.
I do hope to be happy, healthy and wise as I can in life.
Best of wishes to you as well.

No such thing.

How do we not learn from each other as human beings? Isn't that the point of life?

 

[EtuMalku]

Apart from everyone else.

I like to think we are all unique from everyone else

Are you indestructible?

Not that I see what this has anything to do with this . . . but, objectively I am not, subjectively I am

I guess directly observable would be... extroverted?

Ya lost me again . . .
