I believe you should understand that the path does not need to fit you. You need to fit in the path.

Are you talking about fitting into the path that everyone else is following according to the words in the scriptures? If so then I disagree with you,we don't need to fit in any path but our own.My feeling is that The Creator created each individual different with their individual path to walk and as that person walks down his path he will be enlightened by learning different things The Creator wants him to know and he will also learn how to seek and hear The Creator directly for Knowledge and Guidance for living in this world according to his holy will. Not going by man's words. But by The Creators words.

Not to just assume that what man has written on earth is the true word of God because the bible says it is.

Know for one's self by hearing him and obeying him through your divine spirit that God has blessed you with,remember he created you so you are divine and capable of communicating with The Creator personally,don't doubt yourself,be confident about the spiritual supernatural abilities The Creator has given each one of us to use to help ourselves as well as others so as to live abundantly,while here on this earth.

Those who don't believe any of this and stay with the bible,is their right,God will love them just as he does for everyone no matter what they believe or do or who they are or the mistakes and wrongs they have done!! No,damning to hell or not worthy of the Creator's love because you don't agree with scriptures, all are forgiven and have a place in the Divine. For this is the love and understanding of The real Creator.(this is my belief)

Because of the belief in the Bible is so large, is why so many people believe that there is a problem with homosexuals!!! Don't feel like an outcast cause of that, it doesn't matter what they think, the Creator I believe in will accept you just as you are and not damn you to hell or consider you an abomination!! As a matter of fact He made you!! He already knew who you'd be!! He makes no mistakes.Remember that!!! That is why you can't feel God in any religion!! Man made religion not God!!
You are a really friendly person wow, thank you for being so positive. It really makes me happy when people stress that God is above religion, and that most of the rules in religion are in fact made by man, not given by God, and if they are given by God, then i am definitely sure whoever wrote them down changed at least one or two things to fit their own views.

You more then welcome,Its funny cause a lot of people on this forum don't think I am such a nice person.;) I am just a person who stands up for what I believe and I am very outspoken as well, I just be telling it how I feel. Life is all about helping someone,and understanding and non judgmental, of who a person is!!
I am actually a very caring person and I want the best for people and I'm a loving person also. I believe we should all operate out of love, and I felt the same vibes from you!! You make it easy to be nice.:innocent:
Everyday is not gonna be a bed of roses that's life, We should be grateful for the days that are a bed of roses.Also I would like for you to remember that the answer lies within you of what you connect to, I see you as a very spiritual person who will continue to study and learn more about spirituality, it is such a beautiful and meaningful path.
People don't really have a clue who witches are and what we stand for, The bad reputation we get started by Christians and Christianity made up version of us being evil and that our gifts and powers come form the devil.Which makes no sense because the devil is not gonna give you gifts and powers to help others and heal people and care for others, or to bring others to a spiritual place within themselves to enhance their lives for the better.
But it's ok, as long as I know who I am and how I continually seek out the spiritual realm for guidance on my soul's journey.It's a awesome life. I'm so content with myself.and that's what I wish for you. Only you can live your life,no one else. I can't say anything good about the bible so I won't lead you that way, that would make me a hypocrite. The bible is full of dogma and scare tactics and the stories are straight out of a fantasy book, and have you ever wondered why everything that can help you reach the spiritual realm is consider a sin and evil and shouldn't be messed with!! Divination that I practice is so deep and awesome God ministers to me through Tarot cards, they are always spot on for me and the people who ask me to read for them, I let them know that God minsters through me to tell them the things I know.
I also do pendulum readings to answer questions and also to also give me insight for my life and others!! it is amazing how it reacts to me with its motions. also I meditate daily and it has lead me to actually speaking with my spiritual guide and being enlightened on a lot of things.Which is also considered a sin in the Christen world. also I have a medium as a very close friend and while we were talking one day she said my mom was behind me waving some scarves and in a pink dress, it had to be real cause my mom loved her scarves and her favorite color was pink. It did my heart good to know she was okay and happy.
Please tell me what is so bad about that!! But to the bible and religion it is a sin and of evil.The list goes on!! I'm glad I don't feed into the myths of the bible or what someone thinks about me,cause they don't breathe life into my body every morning I wake up and they can't send me to heaven or hell!! So there views don't rule me and my belief. I: feel you already know which way you are going to go!! It's all about what makes you feel good and happy and what will help your growth spiritual. If you ever need to talk to someone, you know where I am morning ,noon,or night I here for you!! Take care and be encouraged!!:hugehug:

Oh, I know you can!!! you have that vibe about you, I felt like you had some interest in the magickal . side of life, you won't never know if you don't try. It is a very fulfilling life for real. I however knew I was a witch at 6 years old. I can remember going up into our woods and making a fort out of Bricks and taking my candles and incense to the fort and summoning up spirits, for some reason , I just knew what to do!! I got books from the library on witches and witchcraft at about 9 years old and started to study, I was so into it that on my 12th birthday party, I took my quests to my playroom in the basement and had a seance!! I had not even seen anyone do it, it just came natural, anyway halfway through the seance, a white clear figure appeared on the wall moving in a wavy motion,My guests started screaming and running out the room up the stairs terrified!! I was laughing my tail off, they wasn't laughing at all. I tried to get them to go back but they wouldn't,:p.

I always knew I was very different then all my friends.I was always practicing different things and I still am. My mother was a witch, but she would not say it, she didn't do anything dealing with witchcraft at all, cause she was a dedicated Christian. But we both knew what she was. She could tell what was going to happen way in advance, She could tell people what they were thinking about and why they were troubled. She had dreams like I do that always came true.

So I guess I got it from my mom. I wad a Christian for 24 years, miserable, but I kept going to church for my mother!!! until I couldn't take it anymore, I realized I had to be true to myself,that was the best move I've ever made.I never felt comfortable in church at all , and I could never get into the bible, it was a joke to me, every time I read a scripture I just shock my head cause it was just comical to me. I disagreed with so much that was being taught and preached.and when I read the book "The dark History of Christianity it all made sense to me why I never felt comfortable calling myself Christian and going to church.

.Because they really gave witches a bad time!!! and it was all made into existence by Christians,and the Church.But that's a whole different story. anyway, I stopped caring about what others would think of me, and decided to totally embrace who and what I am and my path. Now if you decide to branch into it, just let me know, if you have any questions or etc. I'd be glad to assist. Sorry I'm always writing a novel, I am a writer, and I love to write and express myself.When I get started it's hard to stop Sorry once again. for writing so long. take care. :blacksunrays:

How familiar are you with Advaita and with Deism?
With Deism, it's basically a religious philosophy where they believe a God exists, but is not a granter a miracles, nor is in any way personal in terms of its relationship with humans, or lack therof for that matter. As for Advaita, i know it is a philosophy of Hinduism, but it's been quite a long time since i've studies Hinduism, maybe you can tell me about it?

I don't truly know much about Advaita, but what I do reminds me of your perspective.
