The Truth To Me

[justinsane]

Through various experiences and thought sessions, ive concluded my 19 year debate between a higher force, or science.

Ive discovered and experienced many different angles of this subject. I was forced to go to church until i was 15. I never took it to heart, but believed in everything i was taught, until about 12 when I started developing my own belief system... which was... to go against things people wanted me to believe.

So I claimed to be Athiest until earlier this year when I got back into using cannabis.

I went into thought sessions and discovered what I somehow just knew to be true. And a first mushroom trip several days ago, confirmed my beliefs VERY strongly.

I believe:

Organized religion is a support system for those in search of hope. (Or a way to spend a boring Sunday morning ) I do not doubt some occurances stated in the Bible, nor do I doubt the existence of something higher than humanity.

God is Love. They are one in the same. There is a life force and energy in EVERYTHING we know, see, feel, taste, and all things unknown. There is a repeating circle that everything is a part of. And the circle is an infinite band of love. There is a "Heaven" and it is accessible by Love. Organized religion helps people learn to love and appreciate. And with that, they are accepted into the infinite life.

Learn to love all things, and you will find inner peace, and comfort in the afterlife.

Peace.

sounds good to me bro, dont let some of these kids convince you otherwise

one thing i would say is to keep searching, u may have made a breakthrough which it sounds like u have, but keep searching, keep asking the hard questions, keep looking for the truth

ull be amazed at what u find

[socialinjustice]

you sound like a buddhist

I'm with Stemsis... though I think you've discovered a great philosophy, you might miss out on further discoveries if you decide to 'conclude' your search and limit yourself to your beliefs. After all, as you no doubt have learned, allowing your views to change can be a very wonderful thing. Keep spiraling out, keep your ears, eyes, mind and heart open, and who knows how far you might go.

Happy trails. :stoned:

Hello Justinsane! What you feel is what I am searching for and I want to find inner peace and I want to surround myself with positive feelings and most of all, I want to learn to love all things but unfortunately, I don't know how. How do you learn to love when I was never really taught how to? How do I know when it's true love when all I've felt in life was pain and disappointment? How do I learn to love those that bring me sooo much unnecessary pain for unknown reasons? I'm in process right now of trying to look within...I am trying to give myself the love that others have failed to give me...so that I can give the love back. I am trying to work from inside out but it's a very difficult and confusing journey for me when I don't have anyone to guide me through it.

Much Love,

Wow, I'm glad to see such support in this field of such opinionated nature. No, I do not intend to end my search here. I will continue to learn and love to the end of my days, and beyond that.

Cheery, if you read, I MUST recommend a book to you (and everyone) that will likely change your perspective on love. Its a quick, and easy read. I finished it in 2 days, its called The Four Agreements. Extremely helpful in the search for inifinite love for everything around you. It's a must read. Its not another "theory" book, or a book telling you what you should and shouldnt do to come out on top. This book uses the mind and your personality to change the way you handle situations, and your point of view toward everything.

Try it, and peace!
