Introducing the real GOD of the Universe

I am thy Emperor in the Sky, the Demiurge, thy Jealous and vengeful Lord of all Worlds!

.

Behold! The Way, the Truth, and the Light!

(MorgueOfficial) I discovered the REAL God | Why the Monad [the One, as taught in the varied traditions we collectively call Gnosticism] was too dangerous to teach.

The Lost Sutras of Jesus

So that even the Goddess of Wisdom (Sophia) as exemplified by Apostle Mary Magdalene (the closest and brightest apostle, the real intended successor of Jesus, not dogmatic Peter/Petra, an emissary of Sophia, Barbelo, the true GOD or godhead) had to denigrated and erased.

It's why Jesus the Anointed One (the Christed) had to be repurposed by imperial powers, misquoted, and made to work for the state (Emperor Constantine's Roman Empire and subsequent Christendom), and inverted until what the church says he said is nearly the opposite of what he was teaching.

  Gnostic Jesus
• Pistis Sophia (Koine Greek Πίστις Σοφία) is a Gnostic text discovered in 1773, possibly written between the 3rd and 4th centuries AD. The existing manuscript, which some scholars place in the late 4th century, relates one Gnostic group's teachings of the transfigured Jesus to the assembled disciples, including his mother Mary, Mary Magdalene, and Martha. (In this context, "transfigured" refers to Jesus after his death and resurrection, not the event during his life where he spoke to appearances of Moses and Elijah on a mountain). In this text, the risen Jesus had spent 11 years speaking with his disciples, teaching them only the lower mysteries. After 11 years, he receives his true garment and is able to reveal the higher mysteries [entheogens] revered by this group. The prized mysteries relate to complex cosmologies and knowledge necessary for the soul to reach the highest divine realms. More

Atheists must be crucified like my son!

Why become a follower following in the footsteps of the guru to know what the guru knows when you can just pay lip service to the guru, praise, worship, sing about, and never actually follow anything he taught, pat yourself on the back for being a good "follower" (a pious Christian hypocrite), and call it a day?

Heaven awaits for all kiss-ups who never bothered to read, investigate, study, or experience what the Teacher taught. They just let child molesting intermediaries interpret it for them so they could be sure to get a good seat to the afterlife. God would be so proud!

So all true believers get into heaven?

It's interesting that many modern Christians, contradicting their own official sacred texts (council-approved books of The Book), believe in and speak of a God that sounds an awful lot like the Monad Jesus was really talking about.

The ancient Vedas, Brahmin priests (Brahmanism), and modern Hindus also speak of such a GOD (Brahman, not Brahma) that is not a being in the sky, not an old, bearded man on a cloud throne but rather "the absolute or ultimate reality behind all of the illusion" (the maya or simulation or the ever-revolving samsara). That GOD is called Brahman even in a polytheistic, henotheistic, sometimes pantheistic tradition with so much variety and complexity (because it's an amalgam of all the beliefs and practices found in India by the occupying British who could not understand it until they lumped the diversity into one big pile and called it a "thing," a "religion," of which ancient Indians had no concept, because like most people of the world, spirituality and daily life were not treated as separate).

• 

  What is the Greek logos, word, seed sound?

  BRAHMAN: In the Old Vedic and subsequent Hindu religions, Brahman (Sanskrit ब्रह्मन्) has a "variety of meanings," but in the Upanishads and later Indian philosophies it connotes "That" from which all existence proceeds, and to which everything returns [1, a], [the Source,] the origin and cause of all that exists [2, 3, 4]. In contemporary Hindu metaphysics, Brahman is the highest universal principle, the Ultimate Reality of the universe behind all the hide-and-seek "divine play" (lila), complexity, and confusion of maya (illusion). [The nondual of Advaita Vedanta.] More

That's what I've been trying to say: we're all divine

This Monad (ONE) is Brahman (GOD), and it probably the TAO, the Great Spirit of Native American lore, and it is likely the "Father" Jesus (Gnostic Jesus, Y'shua, Yeshua, Joshua, Isa, Saint Issa) was really talking about in an anionic (timeless/eternal now) Kingdom, not a heavenly rebirth but a timeless ("eternal") reality right now, for those [mystery cult] initiates ready and able to undergo purification and ego-death (loss of self to gain the kingdom of heaven) and be raised up in a rapture (bliss, unburdening, realization, union) of understanding (comprehension) and gnosis (actual experience) before passing away from this world.

Science vs. Religion: embrace mystery

(Finding Meaning Project) When religion and science say same thing...

The phenomenal world as illusion (maya)

The impersonal ultimate reality behind all?

The basic recurring theme in Hindu mythology is the creation of the world by the self-sacrifice of God—"sacrifice" in the original sense of "making sacred"—whereby God [or GOD] becomes the world which, in the end, becomes again God.

This creative activity of the Divine is called lila, the play [or drama] of God, and the world is seen as the stage [platform] of the divine play. Like most of Hindu mythology, the myth of lila has a strong magical flavour.

Jesus Lived in India

Brahman is the great magician who transforms [it]self into the world and then performs this feat with [its] "magic creative power," which is the original meaning of maya in the Rig Veda.

The word maya—one of the most important terms in Indian philosophy—has changed its meaning over the centuries. From the might, or power, of the divine actor and magician, it came to signify the psychological state of anybody under the spell of the magic play [the actors or audience lost in the play].

As long as we confuse the myriad forms of the divine lila with reality, without perceiving the unity of Brahman underlying all these forms, we are under the spell of maya....

The Tao of Physics (Fritjof Capra)

In the Hindu view of nature, then, all forms are relative, fluid and ever-changing maya, conjured up by the great magician of the divine play. The world of maya changes continuously, because the divine lila is a rhythmic, dynamic play.

The dynamic force of the play is karma [act, action, deed, doing, intention], an important concept of Indian thought. Karma means "action." It is the active principle of the play [the acting], the total universe in action, where everything is dynamically connected with everything else.

In the words of the [Bhagavad] Gita, Karma is the force of creation, wherefrom all things have their life.

Scholars don't believe in the Bible

Anyone not convinced should read Forged about the writing of what Christians today call "the Bible" by Prof. Bart D. Ehrman. Yeah, but who is Ehrman?

Dr. Bart Ehrman, Ph.D., is an American biblical scholar whose research focuses on the historical Jesus, the textual criticism of the New Testament of the Bible, and the origins and development of early Christianity. He is a distinguished professor of Religious Studies at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the author or editor of more than 30 books, including six NY Times bestsellers, and the creator of nine lecture series with The Great Courses.

Forged: Writing in the Name of God--Why the Bible's Authors Are Not Who We Think They Are

I bow to thine empty Roman torture device and think what I get out of it. Thanks, God!

.

Forged: Writing in the Name of God

Dr. Bart D. Ehrman has 4.5 out of 5 stars (with 967 reviews) for this #1 best seller in historical study reference. Prof. Ehrman is the New York Times bestselling author of Jesus, Interrupted: A Study of Biblical Textual History and Contradictions and God's Problem: How the Bible Fails to Answer Our Most Important Question-Why We Suffer.

He reveals which books in the Bible’s New Testament were not passed down by Jesus Christ’s disciples but were instead FORGED by other hands—and he explains why this centuries-hidden scandal is far more significant than many scholars are willing to admit.

A controversial work of historical reporting in the tradition of Princeton Prof. Elaine Pagels, Marcus Borg, and John Dominic Crossan, Prof. Ehrman’s Forged delivers a stunning explication of one of the most substantial—yet least discussed—problems confronting the world of biblical scholarship.

In this provocative work of biblical criticism, Prof. Ehrman separates history from tradition to reveal:

• Ancient Forgery: Which New Testament books were written by anonymous authors who lied about their identity? Why does this scandal matter for modern faith?
• Historical Methods: Techniques biblical scholars use to detect pseudepigraphy is how we can know who really wrote the books of the Bible.
• Early Christian Conflicts: How internal debates and struggles with outsiders led different groups to create documents in the names of apostles like Peter and Paul (a Jew named Saul) to authorize their own views.
• Lost Scriptures: An eye-opening look at non-canonical texts like the Gospel of Peter and 3 Corinthians, and what they tell us about the world of biblical forgery. More

Foolishness of the Ten Commandments

Obey these or die, stupid kvetching Israelites!

(The Big Why) The foolishness of the 10 Commandments

If the Ten Commandments of Christianity, as borrowed or modified by Judaism because they come in varying official lists from the all-knowing, never wrong, and never ever misquoted or misunderstood God of All Things, are foolish. Not because rules are bad. Rules good. Clear instructions good. Boundaries good. Kindness and fairness to all, very good.

The foolishness derives from the fact that the religion can't even agree and these rules straight. Then we hear that the Black Egyptian Jew Moses (of the founding myth, aka the Exodus that never happened, who has now been scrubbed and completely Ashkenazified) dropped another list and broke the tablet, or perhaps he threw it in anger. In any case, the list changes. Who knew the list ever changed?

Henotheistic Judaism loves their bloody gods

The Ultimate Creator (the Demiurge, the El, the god, Baal, Molech, Yahweh, YHWH, Yaldabaoth, Jehovah, God thirsty for sacrificial blood when nothing else will do but black magic for the forgiveness of sin even if it means killing His son, the Big Whomever, Lord of the Universe and Children's Playgrounds and Hell because He rules all, knows all, decides all, wills all, controls all, and is never wrong not to the slightest, which is why He never changes His mind or His word or His law, unless someone talks to Him and gets a personal variance or exception) is said to have decreed them, so who can argue with them? They are the law, the Ritual Decalogue, the Finger of God pointing and cursing when He doesn't get His patriarch way. So OBEY and shut up.

But what about Buddhism's "Ten Precepts"?

Some Jews make God look bad

What about them? The Buddha advised all human beings to restrain themselves and keep the precepts -- five, eight, ten, 227, 311, or more, in accordance with one's wishes for the future. A minimum of the basic five should remain inviolate because the wholesome (skillful) karma (actions, deeds) of doing so benefits beings here and hereafter, in this world and the next (a reference to many future worlds one finds oneself in in the future). These are not "commandments," not even for Buddhist monastics (nuns, monks, maechis, anagarikas, temporary novices and spiritual retreatants). They are undertaken voluntarily and violated voluntarily. The goal is not to "please" some god or God. It is to bring about peace of mind and purification of view by insight, which leads one to see things as they truly are. And in seeing them that way, one wishes no harm or suffering on anyone.

How dare Buddhism outline a standard of conduct for individuals/communities! Is that "Zen"?

.

How did the Buddha know and care so much?

Also note that none of the precepts is self-serving. There's no "Love Thy Buddha and worship Him above all" or "I am Thy Lord Your God, Obey me, you speck of dust!" or any such thing. All human societies would agree and have agreed for millennia and aeons (kalpas), that everyone is happier and has much more peace of mind when no one is going around killing, stealing, sexually misconducting themselves, lying (bearing false witness), or becoming so intoxicated that they are heedless to these guidelines for human conduct. The additional vows or precepts to temporarily abstain from luxuries, adornments and self-beautification, or eating at inappropriate times are all excellent aids to mindfulness (presence of mind), meditation (absorption), health (vigor and longevity), and undistracted focus.

Right action is just one factor of eight

What a heavenly world this would be if living beings here just kept these five. Rebirth in better worlds is possible just from better conduct here. And liberation from rebirth in any world is possible, making an end of all possible future suffering, is within reach. Maybe that's not what most people want or are aware of, but it is attainable. If all anyone ever wanted out of Buddhism were health, wealth, wishes, beauty, fame, and influence, that is all within reach through karma, here and now and there and then.

Who copied whom: Gnostic Jesus or Buddha?

They didn't understand, Jay. - I know, Sid

(Primeval Archives) The Buddha ("Awakened One") and the Gnostic Jesus ("Anointed One") were teaching the same escape route they somehow both knew. Who took it from whom?

Answer

*Irony* Well, clearly Buddhism, which existed five or six centuries before Jesus was born, must have stolen the idea from Christianity by somehow finding a way to time travel centuries into the future, seeing how popular Christianism would get then absconding like a time bandit with Gnostic papyri under his arm back to South and Central Asia (India and Afghanistan). Wait, is there time travel yet? When will that arrive?

So Jesus Christ must have heard the teaching, seen the Buddha's finger pointing at the path (as preserved in the Buddha-Dharma and the Sangha, the Teachings of the Buddha and the monastic institution the Buddha set up to preserve and practice those Teachings so that the world would never be bereft of path or enlightened disciples, who are the unexcelled source of merit for the world).

Jesus was a Buddhist monk (BBC)

• VIDEO: Jesus in India as a Buddhist monk (BBC)

Socrates, Jesus Christ, the Buddha, Lao Tzu

Primeval Archives does such a great job presenting the case then falls on his A.I. face by claiming that all the evidence that Jesus spent the missing 18 years of his life between the time he was a teen then a teacher traveling to India, Tibet, and the mystic East. All the evidence in the world wouldn't convince someone who has already made up his or her or their mind.

Jesus Lived in India

Is there evidence? Because if there is, then the question answers itself about who borrowed from whom. The BBC says that Jesus was a Buddhist monk during a part of those "missing years," which did not really go missing at all, but rather were buried and erased by the institution. Churches, councils, Vatican, clerical organizations, they never heard it, just as they ignore the Apocrypha, a wondrous source of Christian and pre-Christian knowledge. The lost Gnostic Gospels cannot now be ignored, nor could the parallels between what may spiritual traditions seem to be trying to say in their own way.

• Nicolas Notovitch, Russian Christian, found written documentation of Jesus (St. Issa) in Tibetan monastery Hemis Gompa, Ladakh
• He returned to West, was met with shock and doubt. Then someone claimed to go ask at the monastery, which denied knowing anything about a book documenting Jesus (St. Issa) training there then returning to Palestine (ancient Israel) before getting in trouble again, getting crucified, cut down and released by bribed Roman guards, and returning to India to live out his life till the age of 80 in Kashmir, where he is buried in the Jewish style
• Indian Swami Abhedananda heard about this, traveled to Ladakh, was shown the book (because he was not a Westerner who would steal it like others were likely to do), corroborating all that Notovitch had claimed

Jesus was a Buddhist monk (BBC documentary)

Truth is truth, and no one is owner of it. What the Buddha, the Awakened One, realized he shared with the world like an openhanded teacher. Jesus may have had a much smaller circle of special disciples (Apostles), but he certainly tried to tell people of his visions, realizations, and setting forth a way of following in his footsteps. It's a terrible pity the official Church took that, stripped it of its vital call for real gnosis (direct personal experience, shamanic realization, seeing to believe) and replaced it was a pitiful shell of obedience to authority, mindless learning by rote, and blind faith.

We are responsible for our own actions, which is our karma (deeds). We reap what we sow, which is to say we harvest what we plant. As is said in Buddhism, "No one saves us but ourselves; no one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path; buddhas [awakened teachers] only point the way."

Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar. It is observed by Muslims worldwide as a month of fasting (sawm, not eating during daylight hours), communal prayer (salah), reflection, and community [5] -- and no sinning in general so "fasting" with the eyes as well. It is also the month during which the Quran is believed to have been revealed to the Islamic Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). The annual observance of Ramadan is regarded as one of the Five Pillars of Islam [6] and lasts 29 to 30 days, from the sighting of the crescent moon to the next [7, 8]. More

• Why don't Muslims ever depict the Prophet? (Everybody Draw Mohammed Day); Buddhism began with the same rule, and Judaism continues to avoid direct mention of their tribal god or the making of graven images and idols. When Buddhism began, the Buddha (the "Awakened One") was referred to with symbols of a Bodhi tree, lotus flower, or an empty chair (aniconism), and the first human depictions were from his hometown (outside of India that had the same prohibition on anthropomorphic images), that being the Greco-Buddhist art of Gandhara (modern Afghanistan, Pakistan, Sakastan, Scythia).
