Today I’ve stumbled into Deepak Chopra’s article “Religion’s Greatest Enemy?”.
I have already stated in one of my articles that God’s greatest enemy is the religious crowd.
Now, Deepak’s question depends on how do you define “Religion”.

If “Religion” is “crowd’s belief about God” then the only enemy is the crowd.
If “Religion” is “Truth about God” then Religion has no enemies. It is simply ignorance not aware of The Religion.

Well, humans twisted the meaning of “Religion”, changing it from “Truth about God” to “Belief about God”.
An average intellect will see the difference, but the crowd is always below the average.
The leaders too.
Well, most of them.
The rest are average.
But God is not for the average…
If He was, then the average wouldn’t need law for not insulting parents, for not killing people, for washing your hands, for having day about God (one only day(!) ), for loving your neighbor, for not killing your children…
Why do you think the average had to have those laws?
To stop them from doing all this of course.

The law comes after the sin.
If the average doesn’t kill, no law about killing will be issued.

So, God is not for the average.

By the way, should I not use the “God” word.
Am I insulting some one who believes that there is no God.
Should I say that God is for everybody (not detached from the average)?
Must I mention Jesus Who said “don’t even think of killing”, or should I mention Mohammad who said “kill by my rules”?
Or perhaps Buddha or Laozi or any of those which you KNOW?

Spirituality?
What is it?
Is Spirituality information from the books and your ability to agree, disagree, comment and draw conclusions on it?

You wait for The Messiah?
Who is Messiah?
The one who unites people, or the one who say something new (or old), or the one who puts order in the world?
Or may be the One Who brings the Truth.

But how do you know what is the Truth in order to recognize Messiah and follow Him?
Will you judge Him by the books you have read?
Will you judge the Truth with the INFORMATION you have about it?

I’ll tell you how humans judge the Truth - they do it with the interpretation of the information they have from the books.
An because humans are CLEVER (all of them) they think that the more they read, the crosser they come to the Truth.

No, my friends.
The truth is not in the Bible, in the Koran, in the words of the Prophets, Gods, non-gods, Buddhas or whoever and whatever you think off.

The Truth is in the cookie but only after you take a bite from it.
Otherwise the cookie is tasteless.

Read millions of books about the taste of the cookie and you will NOT KNOW it.
The taste is known in the mouth - in you.
A wise man had said that the Truth is in you, and you believed him without understanding the wisdom.
I suppose that the wise man did not mentioned the cookie, or you did not hear the end of the wisdom (you are always in a hurry).

So, who can be the greatest enemy of the taste of the cookie?
Is there enemy if you don’t have the taste?
Who stops you from reaching God and have a bite from Him?
I suppose you could say that the religion does it, but what the religion has to do with the taste in your mouth?
I’d say a lot.
The religion is an expression of the sorrow-bitter taste of humans souls.

Let me tell you another wisdom.
The taste in the cookie is always the same.
But the taste in your mouth eating one and the same cookie can be very different.
The taste depends on many things.
Although it is the same in the cookie, the taste in your mouth will depend on the food you ate before, on your health (blocked nose, damaged perceptions…), on the environment (noisy, smelly, dark, light, battle field, home comfort…) and on many more things.

Don’t ask why different Prophets gave different INFORMATION about the taste.
They had it differently.

Which one is the closest to the Truth explanation about the Taste?
Look at the Prophets explanations.
In what they do not deffer?
In Love.

And now we come to the evergreen question:
How to find the cookie?
The answer is very simple - if you want to taste the Love what do you do? - you Love.

Now, I can not tell you what Love is.
I can give you some information about it, but the taste is in the cookie.

There is ongoing discussion (Bulgarian language) in Truden Web Site about the contradictions in The Koran.

If this entry comes to the attention of an educated expert in Islamic religion, please enlighten us on the next deceiving contradictions:

[2.62] Surely those who believe, and those who are Jews, and the Christians, and the Sabians, whoever believes in Allah and the Last day and does good, they shall have their reward from their Lord, and there is no fear for them, nor shall they grieve.

and

[5.82] Certainly you will find the most violent of people in enmity for those who believe (to be) the Jews and those who are polytheists, and you will certainly find the nearest in friendship to those who believe (to be) those who say: We are Christians; this is because there are priests and monks among them and because they do not behave proudly.

Contradicts to:

[5.51] O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people.

The contradiction is regarding the Christians, which is amplified by the fact that Mohammad was married to Christian woman.

—

Mohammad was teaching people to be good to each other.
Here is a quote from The Koran:

[4.36] And serve Allah and do not associate any thing with Him and be good to the parents and to the near of kin and the orphans and the needy and the neighbor of (your) kin and the alien neighbor, and the companion in a journey and the wayfarer and those whom your right hands possess; surely Allah does not love him who is proud, boastful;

But few lines down we find verse which contradict the above:

[4.89] They desire that you should disbelieve as they have disbelieved, so that you might be (all) alike; therefore take not from among them friends until they fly (their homes) in Allah’s way; but if they turn back, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them, and take not from among them a friend or a helper.

—

Mohammad did acknowledge Jesus as Prophet, because Allah showed him the Prophets.
It is written in The Koran that Allah saved Jesus by taking Him to the Heaven.
A prophet can not reject the teaching from another prophet who was saved by Allah.
Therefore Mohammad could not teach that killing is acceptable.

About killing, Mohammad said:

[17.31] And do not kill your children for fear of poverty; We give them sustenance and yourselves (too); surely to kill them is a great wrong.

Do not kill your children (!)
We know that a law comes after the crime.
So it was good to teach people not to kill their children.
And that is 500 years after Jesus (!)

Another place where we can see “do not kill” is here:

[17.33] And do not kill any one whom Allah has forbidden, except for a just cause, and whoever is slain unjustly, We have indeed given to his heir authority, so let him not exceed the just limits in slaying; surely he is aided.

I don’t think that Mohammad would go against Isa (Jesus) allowing killing in some occasions and limits.
That is clearly going against the word of a Prophet in the Koran.

So, what do you think?
Do you think that Mohammad gave contradicting teachings, or somehow His teachings were changed for some reason?

666

Man is living in three of his natures,
The forth one is the truth and the Life.
ΚΏΣΜΟΣ, ΘΈΛΗΜA, ΈΡΩΤΑΣ.
The forth one is your soul alive.

I wrote these versicles in Bulgarian and English languages.
I know that for most of the people they won’t make any sense.
“666” is the most famous number in the world for the last two thousand years.
What do they mean?
What is the secret hidden behind 666?

Let first see where this number comes from.

Have you ever thought why the new age spiritual authors are so popular?
How spiritual books become bestsellers?

I’ll tell you how.
It is because they tell you exactly what you want to hear.

A sucker that knows nothing but the taste of the milk comes to tell you that “You have always been, you are now and you will always be.”

Wow, we all are gods.

A sucker that knows nothing but the taste of the milk and the softness of the pillow comes to tell you that “The same spirit that rose Jesus from the dead lives in each of us and all of us.”
And you will quote it as a truth.

I was having interesting chat with friends of the book “Conversation with God”.
I saw how people are confused in there understanding about God.

What is God?

God is not the source of all things.
And The Source is not God.
The Source is the Thing which gives life to God(s) and matter.
The Source has no personality.
It does not have Knowledge.
The Source has one only thing: “I Exist”.
It is the thing which gives life, but knows nothing about Life.
Like the spring which does not know about the river.
The Source is everything but knows nothing about anything.
The Source does not CREATE.
Creation is done by will.
The Source has no will.
