[QUOTE="JimRinX, post: 98926, member: 6872"] Reading this reminded me of how much I miss SPN; as I've been preoccupied elsewise for the last two months. Still, even though I haven't had the time to read any more of the Gurdwara (is that the right word for the Sikh Scriptures? Forgive me if I'm wrong, for though I have been trying to learn more about the Sikhi - I'm a bit rusty), I have to make a comment here; as I promised God that I'd share what It once showed me. In the West the word 'Eternity' is often used to convey the 'Heavenly Realm'; which, though this point is most often badly misunderstood - or left out altogether, is actually a very accurate way to describe the Place you go when you Die (which is the same place for all of us, no matter which - or whose - Guru you listen to). If you read my Description of the Two Existential Experiences I've had (in Introducing Myself, and also mentioned in many of my other postings), then - providing you believe what happened was a Real Thing - you'll know that I believe that God opened the door to the nether realm just long enough for me to get a peak inside; as I'm handicapped by Pain, and the benefits of 'normal meditational practices' are denied to me by it - so I believe that God did this thing, to give me the chance to advance spiritually as much as i would have been able to do if I could 'Meditate Normally'. While in that Formless State, Time became a kind of 'static thing' - it no longer seemed to be running from past to future; it just 'was'. Looking into the past or future was as easy as looking to the right or left; and, for an all to breif moment, I could see - and access the memories of - all my Past Lives. When I awoke; there was a White Streak in my hair that hadn't been there before - so I BELIEVE, I MOST SURELY DO! This 'eternity effect' (in which the term 'continuum' takes on a whole new meaning) has, due to it's hard to describe nature, led to many different - and most often somewhat confused - beliefs systems to adopt different Dogmas regarding this subject; though, at the root of the issue, I know that all of the Gurus (or Messiahs, or Prophets, or Mahatmas) of all of these different Religions got the same information from the same source. The same Truth is True for all. I'd say that I wish I knew more about what the Sikh Gurus have to say about this, so I don't offend anyone; but it is that kind of taking offense over such misrepresentations of the same True Truth that has brought us to the Edge of Disaster - while the Band Plays On. I hope you can see WHY I took a little time out to write this for you; for the most part, I find the Sikhi to be kindly and wise - but you could still use a little work on the openmindedness parts, as God Loves a Lover, and the best Sermons lead to Understanding rather than an excuse to behave devisively.:) [/QUOTE]
