The connection with God is different. The teaching is interlaced with fear.
They think they need to do better instead of seeing they are perfect
already.
This is what the bible teaches. Be a good person and go to heaven. It
doesn't work. Why, heaven is a place in the mind, at least it was for me.
Big dissapointment.
Maybe they don't ask in the same way. Maybe they are closed to the idea of
miracles. Who knows. Some Christian's get it. I can tell from the joy they
carry inside of them.

This is belief.

It's useful to break the normal rules. Make an impact. If you really believe
whispering will make a difference it can.
There are many icons in my place of residence for people to establish
connections with divinity. Doorways on the outside. Some are more clear than
others. This is useful and supports the culture, however to me it is a
substitute for connection from within.

I just had a hunch, bought the book Serpent Power which didn't mean a lot
but some part of me connected with it... a couple of days later...
something exploded.
In meditation I found a way to release the knot, which seemed to be there
before. Like finding a hole in a bouncy castle filled with air.
Having the system clear to begin with will make an enormous difference on
how K is opened, experienced and handled.

Can you encompass the horror and exist with it peacefully?

When you are ready to give up all desire.

You don't until you know what it is. The absense of want.

At the market.. 3rd aisle... 2nd stall.
