[QUOTE="Harkiran Kaur, post: 181863, member: 18224"] After studying deeply in the 'mystical' traditions of all the major religions, I can offer a unique perspective... that the outward literal teachings of most religions are allegorical. And that's why many do not make sense with science etc. However with most major religions there also exists a 'mystical' side... people who understand the symbolisms hidden in the allegories, and it is these symbolisms the truths... that start to emerge as very (sometimes eerily) similar between major religions that outwardly looked so far apart that nobody would think they were teaching the same thing! And these teachings agree with science! Some of these similarities just off the top of my head are: ONE creator, which is formless, unknowable, pure consciousness without form. If we look deep into quantum physics, it is suggesting this Universe at the base, is one Universal field. That field is not matter, but consciousness. Quantum physics experiments are showing us that the building blocks of atoms, do not exist physically until 'observed' into existence. Without observance for example, an electron behaves as a wave and not a particle. Since even our brains are made from the same atoms and electons, then who observed them into existence? And since that consciousness is not us individually... it must be something more profound. The idea of us being made in the image of the creator - This is not literal as in - we don't LOOK like the creator physically. The idea is, that since we were made from/of the creator, just as any smaller part of a fractal contains the information of the whole, so do we possess the knowledge / information of the creator, and also the same creative potential... but it's hidden within us. And as I tried to explain before, our dreams and creations also possess the same hidden even more deeply. The idea of the Universe being 'fractal' is scientific and can be seen from the largest cosmic events to the smallest of particles. The idea that God is within us... not 'out there' on a cloud. Even Christianity says this. Even Islam says it! Judaism says it too! In fact, I don't even know where the whole invisible sky daddy sitting on a cloud idea came from. I think it was a story to teach children so they could 'picture' their creator in their minds. We are here for spiritual evolution. If you think about it, a whole physical lifetime where the only real constant between any person is that you learn as you grow, would not make sense if that knowledge just disappeared upon physical death. Take a look at some of the mystical esoteric traditions and the knowledge they teach and you will start to see the similarities: Kabalah/Qabalah, Sufism, Hermetics, Rosicrucian, Golden Dawn, Freemasonry, Ancient Egyptian Mysticism, etc. And try to look beyond the literal words that are written on the pages of the world's religions. There is 'hidden' knowledge in there... in all of them! Hmm this video sums up much of what these teachings are (and at the very least gives a different definition of what 'God' is (from a scientific point of view): [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JF61lhEeGng[/url] [/QUOTE]
