So many are hypnotized by their religions, hate to say it
and it is ironic, being a virtual church that I state this, but what it all
comes down to is, attachment. I think
the mainstream faiths market themselves to the newer souls. Of course,
everything is inverted and upside down, so the most godly faith happens to be
the most evil on the planet. Which is why I have found comfort in Buddhism, you
can have church in your living room in solitude. Me personally I don’t belong
to a sangha in my community (a Buddhist group of people) because of my schedule
and my life, but that hasn’t stopped me from exploring the divine in solitude
and taking refuge the Buddha. I love listening to the Buddhist discourses and
garnering some sense of reality from them. People think all there is to life is
working and playing video games or watching movies.
To live a truly adept life takes real skill. I have always been conflicted with my own life for at least the past decade because I am on a disability pension. The government just hands me money and medication and takes care of me, because otherwise I would be in a hospital or end up in prison without medication and when things are that bad you tend to take a viewpoint of yourself as at least a little bit ‘damaged’ I am very very fortunate to be living in a country that takes care of it’s citizens in this regard, but life could be better. It’s almost as if the past ten years due to my income I have been living in a literal apocalypse. A wasteland of very little money and some adversity. But in a sense I have created a very beautiful and touching life that lives way above that, with dignity and class even though I don’t have millions in the bank, I at least think I do.
I think of people that are on my income and have to struggle like I do, but don’t have help, it would be a tough life, to be alone. I have been very fortunate to find a loving mate that helps take care of me and we live a good life, fruitful at best !! When one can create a very pleasant existence despite the circumstances you know you have a good mind on your shoulders.
I have always believed in the unknown and the future, and this is why I can understand why not many people are willing to devote a quiet night to meditation, it doesn’t really give you much, at least not as much stimulation as an xbox or a website or 300 songs on your ipod. The benefits of meditation are unseen, and you are responsible for what you seek and want to get out of it essentially. There are presidents and prime ministers and kings and queens that have not found the Buddha or the meditation.
I strongly believe that Buddhism is for the most evolved souls on the planet. From what I can understand of the nature of meditation is that it simply eradicates all forms of hatred, illusion, negativity and sadness. It in a sense, in a hidden way, makes you into a more compassionate and loving person, but this takes skill on your part to work into your meditation the avenue of sending all the negativity outward, far away from you and welcoming the hidden energies into you that will do their work.
I also have had more trust for wicca and paganism in the past decade and more than the average person would trust in them because they simply view it as Satanism out of ignorance. Some of the most highly evolved concepts, philosophy and psychics I have witnessed that were either wiccan or pagan and actually offer tools to forward yourself in this reality in the form of spells, chants, talismans, sigels, music, scents, and energy. Far much more than the mainstream faith is willing to offer in the form of a 2000 year old 2000 page bible that doesn’t make very much sense.
I have always thought that what comes to you in the moment is your most pressing reality. I had to read some of the bible to pass my Ph.D but it just solidified how insane it all is and what illusion we are all trapped in. I take being able to warp the reality in your favour in the near future in the form of a spell, rather than read the bible and hope and pray for to an old man in the sky any day. But I am not willing to belong to anything like wiccan or pagan or Buddhism simply because I am pretty reclusive and detest any sort of social function.
Also what seems to be in the mainstream these days with our youth and pop culture is a society of atheism, young people that don’t really believe in anything but getting drunk and texting all day. I think if you can find whatever you need to, to stay sane you have done the right thing, but also to just simply ignore the divine, the creative spark that brought you here in the first place in this time and reality would be an absolute travesty. I strongly believe this energy wants to be found, and those that spend every waking moment finding this energy that keeps you breathing, your heart beating and money coming your way and food in front of you is the most pressing goal. I just think that not many are tested on their faith or their lives so they don’t really know or understand what is at stake.

God, Buddha, and the divine are everywhere, helping you
live, helping you see, helping you walk and stay fed, this energy keeps you
alive and all of us alive, it keeps this whole reality existing and the birds
singing in perpetuity, quite a lot of energy needed for that, quite a lot of energy
needed for that.
