@eastariel – Right on the mark! Jesus himself loved all but also expressed his displeasure & anger at the money handlers in the temple. And as for the Mahatma. . . . he da MAN!!! All and all ANGER is a natural part of our make up, left wrongly repressed it will manifest itself via other channels in the body and work all kinds of crippling devices and exhaust the energies. Best to just transmute it somehow. . . sex, music, sport etc.
@moeddiggiddyy Do you like this quote?
“I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ. ” ~ Mohandas Gandhi, a man who understood Christ exceptionally well and also had a great sense of humor.
Mohandas Gandhi didn’t always like everyone, but he did love everyone. He believed in Christ’s peace principles of inclusion.
Its actually quite simple. Both men along with countless others say the same thing
- – - -The only way to the One is inside of You—-, not through interpretations of other men, churches, or anyone including Eckhart.
And look, its still working today, 2000 years later fear drives your faith. Are you a Christian because you love, or because you fear hell? Does it make you feel good to say “your going to burn in hell” because you dont believe like me”? I believe Jesus’ message. But by some of the comments on here I doubt the majority of christians do not even understand the message of their own spiritual teacher, Jesus.
The argument about Jesus is actually quite ignorant of Christians. I do not say ignorant as a negative word but in the literal meaning “unknowing”. If you look at the content of Jesus and Eckhart, they are actually speaking to the same things. Eckhart quotes Jesus several times in his first book and sites Jesus as a spiritual teacher of his. The bible (stories put together by men) is full of deception as in the case of Hell being added to keep followers fearful and in line.
@msyasmin1984 damn right!
@cardicianman1 ofcourse since all merciful god wishes us to be burned alive for eternity because we are fooled by lies that he allowed his son lucifer to perpetrate? childish fanatsy. if the universe were only such a simplistic device it would be very boring indeed. thankfully your version only exits in isolated pockets of the multiverse. your already halfway there. . . so enjoy it i guess.
@gildone84 well said man. well said. religion are used like a more powerful version of sports team. it is misued to control thought. the perfect vehicle for corruption. the best laid lies contain the most truth in them eh?
He talks and even looks like my Kyudo (Jap. archery) teacher.
道可道非常道，名可名非常名。So simple, so complicated, yet so profound
@gildone84
what if Jesus actually said ” I AM is the way, the truth and the life, no man comes to the father but by I AM”
blah blah blah. . . people just need to mind there own business. . . do what works for you and leave others alone in their found peace!!! . . . .
let Christians be. They accept a word as their authority.
Tao can not be known, only understood. Let go of the hate you have for Christians or anyone who partakes in a practice of faith, or be mastered by your hatred for them and fall under a different delusion.
@gildone84 what is christaninty? it’s a book thats what it is.
@mizzzlizzz02
Maybe, but he seems to be very tired, empty of will and bored of life.
In my point of view, it looks like that he wants to cry. . . : (
@theawakener7 you should ease off of the gas dude. since you are “awoken” and all, then you would know that people will wake up when they are ready to wake up, you should know this bc with the awoken/expanded level of consciousness that you claim to have, these revelations are as easy as adding 1+1. also, you should know that stomping on people beliefs and mentalities like you do not only has negative effects on you, but possibly them as well. maybe you should consider staying out of peoples way
i wish the jesus lovers would just worry about themselves and what jesus means to them. . . how hard is it to comprehend that you CHOSE to believe in whatever you believe in. “God” is your “God” be happy with his ass you picked him. And please please don’t try to spread you “God” around if no one asked you. Some of us believe differently than you do, some of us don’t care what Jesus said. He is NOT the only way Ok! Please keep you God to yourselves. If he works for you then thats great good for you
@gildone84 Even though it could be true that you are right and everyone else is wrong, proclaiming such makes you a false prophet?
@cardicianman1
like you, right
@runtubefantasy I don’t think it’s funny that you masturbate to Eckhart.
@cardicianman1
haha you’re funny. I love the sarcasm. it never gets too old
@runtubefantasy How dare you question the son of God? I pray for your poor soul as Satan roasts your body slowly. Repent or you will die a painful death here on earth and thereafter.
@cardicianman1
we’re is your Jesus?
Hi VECTIZ, I notice you like ambient music, which is what people listen to when they don’t want to listen to anything. I notice that from an NLP stand point you are very sound driven, hence you asked me what do I sound like? But of course your comment is a bad transaction as I could say that I sound like Jack Nicholson or Mel Brooks which invokes a tonality perhaps in your head, but more likely you are trying to say that I’m a twat but don’t want to show your hand too soon. So then what is it?
Eckhart will rot in HELL and all of his followers will die in the hands of Satan. Jesus is the only way to heaven!
@interceptingfist1 do you know what you sound like? if so please explain
