Fundamentaly the essence of religion is being One, less the politics and the "selling" of it. - Milo Wed, 17 Dec 2008 02:24:32 +0100 http://www.themindfulword.org/component/option,com_myblog/show,Reclaiming-God.html/Itemid,143/#comment-6 Beautifully said Kevin, I loved it!

There are not many that can share their personsonal experiences, because they are to busy talking and sharing somebody elses. I wanted to learn what I can do, make a long story short, I learned that I did not have to learn I had to unlearn, by this I mean I did not have to find out who I am, I had to find out who I am not. I went within and found that I was not the only one home, and they were piled on top of me, I was buried underneath. I had just about buried my true self alive. It wasn't until I went to prison for 2 years that I was able to see prison as a reflection of my own prison that I was in all my so called life and was not aware of it. I was told to do this, don't do that , It's time to eat, It's time to sleep, It was not long I thought I've been here before! I was 40 years old and this was my first time being in prison but I just knew it remind me of something. I was brought up in prison and was not aware that I was. We all have to go within and uncover that beautiful loving being that we are, and powerful.

Man is deprived, lost, or asleep and needs enlightenment or salvation. That salvation lives deep inside of us and we only need to look inside to find it…..Spirit is there….it is our way to bliss. How wonderful it is that we possess this in our little human bodies. - Jung Girl Sun, 24 Feb 2008 09:19:59 +0100 http://www.themindfulword.org/component/option,com_myblog/show,Reclaiming-God.html/Itemid,143/#comment-3 This makes a great deal of sense. I am on a similar spiritual journey and relate to what you say here. Looks like you have gone beyond studying “Oneness” and are now actually experiencing it. That is what I am working on. - lyksumlikrish Sun, 24 Feb 2008 02:45:33 +0100 http://www.themindfulword.org/component/option,com_myblog/show,Reclaiming-God.html/Itemid,143/#comment-1 word...i recently learned that having a sense of amazement is the frist step at being religious...the truly holy person is the one who is amazed at the seeminly mundane things...eating, breathing, sleeping...not only are these things amazing but in effect they are the deepest prayer that is possile...when we eat, when we breath..etc etc..it is as if G-d is praying for us...and in the very act the prayer is being fulfilled...i wonder if this is not the same when we utter a prayer...is it..at the very time of utterance being fulfilled? - jason Fri, 25 Jan 2008 19:37:55 +0100
