Does the idea of a bodyless soul make sense? Could the 'soul' stay sane?

by IronGland in

as i lay in my pod yesterday i began to think of the following.

in many religions-christianity, hinduism, and buddhism, as well as greek philosophy-attempts are made to mortify the body, to respond as little as often to it's carnal needs and what-not.

this is possible to be prepared for a new existence as just a disembodied soul, in some heavenly spirit realm or what-not.. .

Cheers Satanus. Here in Australia, it's about 2:30 am so getting tired but I am more than happy to fill the story out. A rocky road it is to enlightenment and understanding. PM is probably appropriate as others may find the subject boring/harrowing! I'll write v soon, cheers

Yeah Satanus, as you probably have been told, you don't find DMT, it finds you(at the correct time). Who knows? Once, combined with many spiritual experienes was enough for me. It took years to process all the experience. Ultimately, it was beneficial but can I say a word of warning, be careful of who you choose as your helper and dose. Both for me were way too much. I was gone for 40 minutes, communicating with aliens etc and the helper proved to be a prankster. If you know what I mean. Happy travels

Did Genesis indicate literal creation days?

by M.J. in

the wts and others say the 6 days of creation in genesis are symbolic of longer time periods, while many others insist that a proper (and uncompromising) exegis reveals literal days.

i have a hunch that the author literally meant what he wrote.

the jw counter-argument to this is that genesis was written by moses and moses wrote psalm 90, which reads in part (v4):.

To me, the creation account was not important to the writer. It's brief, summarised. From a scientific or literal point of view, it makes no sense. Doesn't that indicate that the bible is not literal but a beautiful book of fiction to help people understand their place and purpose?

Cheers MORE reading ha ha.

Wasn't sure Little toe of the question mate. The experience with chemicals can only be explained as here and now . The awareness of sanity doesn't "come up". Very hard to explain. I tell you though, I challenged my sanity after, particularly when predicitions of a "guide"voice in the experience came true.....

Like Sonny I too took hallucinagens. DMT specifically. As noted on another thread, I went thru my own death and went into a world of timelessness and no physical sensation, just observation. This had me enthralled, but later experience and reading indicates to me that this is just another mind/chemical experience.

Apparantly, Gautama the Buddha originally taught that when we die that's it. I tend to agree. The rest is just ego.
