Theos-Talk Archives (September 2007 Message tt00001)

Hi Krishtar and all who replied to he question on truth.
   
  Just for information sake i am from London UK born from Italian parents. 
  Thank you all for your information and views. I like to read and see how people think in relation to my thoughts and appreciate all your honesty and feedback. 
  Krishtar i like your views with respects to letting go off these ideals that hold me back from my spirtual progression and it reminds me slightly of what the buddhist speak of when they mention illusions/maya.
  I just cant help feeling that we are in the end days. Wheter that means biblical appocolypse, new age movement or new world order i dont know yet but i am very interested in how they all relate to each other and tie in. In any case I would like to thank you all for welcoming me and hope to be a long term member of the group inturn learning more and growing more.
   
  Peace and Blessings
  Antonio/Spirit

          Dear Antonio
Welcome to this old but entirelly funcional theos-group, I hope you´ll find 
good answers, good new questions and good directions to your researches 
here.
I am from Brazil, perhaps you´re from Portugal or Mexico, I don´t know.
The truth is only one but sages came with different approaches and called it 
many names.
You´ll find it covered with misteries and objectiveness depending on the 
paths you choose.
In Cristianism you´ll find a type of Divinity called Jeovah and God, Deus, 
but very mixed with humanized views of a male God and His opposite, called 
Devil.
I sincerely do not believe in most of what the Bible states about the nature 
of God, I prefer the buddhist and Zen view because they don´t mix the divine 
with the partial and limited view of many other religions, that mirrors 
their prophet´s faulty views.
All the views must be filtered by your awareness in order to build a 
prejudice-free point of view and starting point.
You can not, I my opiniom, believe in every "occult" philosophy, you have to 
check it deeply, there is much falseness in the philosophies and schools 
around us, but you have to develop a high sense of mindfullness.
Internet is an open field of finding good books, good lectures, videos, much 
useful information that has t obe analized and filtered.
Antonio, mu opiniom and by my own experience, if you want to dive into the 
world of awareness, you have to leave all those old baggages full of evil 
Gods, Satanás, Lucifers, Demons and dogmas, because they will prevent you 
from growing wiser and with more mindfullness.
You can´t mix Bible´s views with western views, but you have to study the 
roots of both. Contrasts will happen of course, but that´s the path.
When you feel that you know enough to build your own renewed and dinamic 
beliefs you can also meditate and discover the truth inside yourself, in 
your inner silence.
Imho, if there is an unlimited God, that is omniscient, omnipresent, - just 
as Thomas Merton, the trapist monk said - to dicover Him you´ll also need to 
be inlimited and omnipresent.
This means that, to discover divinity and God you´ll need to become one with 
him.
The first thing to disappear will be the Ego, because most of what is 
written about truth is ego-centered and, thus, very limited.
All occult records will state the same essence under many covers: the God 
within and in All.

Reagards
Krishtar

Subject: Re: Theos-World Odd times for the Odd Fellows --

Hi all,

I'm new to this group so please go easy on my ignorance.
I was just wondering after having read quite a few emails from the group 
what is the truth.
Now i know some people will say the truth is what you apply to your own 
life that makes it better for you to live. Others will enforce their 
opinions on me. All i would like to know is an honest account of the God vs 
Devil myth.
The Bible says that in the last days Lucifer will blind the world with his 
light and that it will be so poerful that many will become mesmerised.
Is this light not the Occult phiosophies spoken of on here each day?
I am just worried that if i start believing in all the philosopies that 
stem from the occult world that the God of the bible will condemn me. I know 
some of you would probably say that the God of the bible is the evil 
controlling force but what if that is what Lucifer wants you to belive? I 
hope you can see where im coming from and the issue that perplexes me.
I would appreciate some help on this matter.

Many thanks
Spirit.

mkr,

Keep that hope alive! It's so easy in these horrendous times to get
discouraged, but we may be sure it is true, "The darker the shadows,
the brighter the Light." The thing is that the shadows are a lot
easier for us to see than the Light, blinded as we are by the veils
of Maya. Nevertheless, the occultist can see past the illusion to the
many millions of examples of the nobility of the human spirit, and to
the tremendous help that is available to all from inner planes, as
long as we try, in our own small ways, to do the right thing. We all
know what that is, don't we? It is also said, and truly, that it is
darkest just before the dawn. The more I surf the net the more I
realize that there are huge numbers of people all over the world
working for our mutual benefit and salvation, and since every effort
for good helps the whole, what a wonderful encouragement it is to
have access to the knowledge that we are not alone in our efforts.

Keep the faith!
