With all the time that has passed, what have you done? What proves your growth? Time is either lost or gained through transcendence. So ask yourself: how much have you grown, and how far have you come from where you started? It's been weeks, months and years. So where are you?
Christianity is of Izfet for a reason.
For them, "the law is written on people's hearts". For us, we need a 10 page thesis on epistemological morality to explain why killing kids is bad.
Don't engage in philosophical debate with those who killed philosophers.
LMAO
Jesus preached exclusive (no, your word salad doesn't make Jesus eclectic) monotheistic salvation through faith and not action, Krishna celebrates multiple manifestations and dharmic duty without ever saying we need "salvation".
These two concepts can't be further away.

Temple of Zeus stands for the spiritual elevation of mankind. Clear pathologies and cures here:
The cope and goalpost-moving is fascinating.
I say that nowhere in their scripture does it say that angels looked like how they are depicted in Christian art (a human with wings), because they stole it from Pagan deities. (Nike/Victoria) They try desperately to move the goal posts, saying “But there are human-looking angels!” With two wings coming out of their back, just like Nike? Nope.
Or they say, “Here's some Byzantine era art showing angels that look like that! See?” Again, not scripture. And it post-dates all the depictions of Pagan deities with that appearance. So again, all that proves is that Roman Christians copied Roman Pagans. (Which is exactly the point I was making)
The Egyptians wrote a manual for the soul. Not for death. For transformation.
The Book of the Dead contains one doctrine so precise it maps perfectly onto Zevist cosmology.
Most people have never heard it explained this way. 🧵
Ancient Civilization Created Meditation Practices to expand their mind and to improve themselves. Even Today, Scientific Research has proven the health benefits of meditations.
The Patanjali Yoga Sutras are one of the Sanskrit collections of texts that sit within the Zevist Doctrines, and they act as one of the foundations for meditational, pranayama and Yoga practice in Zevism.
The system being described falls within the structure of Sankhya, a dualistic framework that separates Purusha (consciousness) and Prakriti (what lies outside of consciousness).
While the Sankhya system is not exactly a perfect representation of what life is (nothing truly can be), it is adequate from certain perspectives and fully respectable as a tool of thought by Zevism.
The structure of the text is in four books that contain a large number of texts each. They describe the eightfold path of meditation that Zevism itself also has, albeit in slightly different terms.
But Zevism and the sages that composed these Sutras agree that the eightfold path are a set of practices, not moralizing slop that's common sense at best and suicidal ideations at worst, coined by Yehuboric Buddhist sects that Hinduism at large also considers heterodox.
As is noted on our site, the third book goes into the use of various Siddhis and, loosely, how they are obtained, as more evidence that the paranormal can be and was a lived experience for the initiates.
The perspective of these Sutras on Maya also completely shits on any New Age ideas of "all is illusion and doesn't matter". The five Vrittis are described, identified as Maya, but also explained in-depth in terms of why they exist, and why they are useful tools despite not being absolute truth.
