Miserable and seeking

The universe. It's cool.

I agree... Everything about it is cool. When you look at us we are even cool. So many signs point to how beautiful and amazing this universe is. Do you think that all of this could come by chance?

If you look for the truth sincerely rather than something you like, you'll probably find it. Most people are just looking for what they like. That's not the point of religions though.

I am not sure how it happened. I am just glad it did.

It's not really a knowledge, just a feeling. It's an amazing place to live. I could totally be wrong and that's okay. No one knows for sure.

You are not wrong. There are 5 levels of Spirit that is behind the reality of our matrix.

There is a lot written in this topic now, you may like to read this explanation.

I know, it seems so shallow. I gotta really try to find what leads me. Actually, I keep getting drawn into looking more at LDS, but I have reservations, questions, etc.

After leaving Christianity in 2014, I must have tried most religions out there. I want a religion so badly, of the reason I am not totally sure, but I just can't seem to be okay with any. I feel lonely, untethered and empty. Not sure what to do. I am not a spiritual flake, just confused.

The Golden Rule is present in all religions, imho. Adherence to it itself is an excellent spiritual exercise, even if you do not have a religion of your own at present.

Just adherence to it could make you more spiritual than some religionists who tend to be more vicious than virtuous.

What's that?

What's that?

The "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you," in assorted wording, depending on the religion. I think it started with Confucianism.

I think that different religions and philosophies came up with the Golden Rule independently. It does truly seem to be an idea that is intuited universally.

Not that its a contest, but I think that the wording from the Torah "Love your neighbor as yourself" is older than Confucius.
