I dis-agree ... but that is another discussion. Maranguape implies several supposed "knowns": Dead or alive "We" have a "place". Life is fleeting. Death is forever. There is no actual after life, even though the term is bandied about. The Bible provides us with knowledge of "We being in a...

As if it was self-evident. Or else it lingered from a pre-historic common pathos.

Ancient China did Human sacrifice [as per the new documentary on TV]. And of course, Aztec Mexico did Human sacrifice ... etc etc ... Temple of Jerusalem did Bird etc sacrifice? But Why? Where did the logic come from?

In the same way CNN never called Bill Clinton a whore-monger?

In yin and yang ("dark–bright") describe how seemingly opposite or contrary forces may actually be complementary, interconnected, and interdependent in the natural world, and how they may give rise to each other as they interrelate to one another. Many tangible dualities (such as light and...

So we supposed soul-beings are less fortunate than many many stones? IE: the stones that see the light of each day? The stones that form the Roman Colosseum, and the Pyramids, and the stones of the Machu picchu? Or even the cast steel objects that have lasted for generations, and tomb stones...

Have you experience with "Tao te Ching"? Have you come across it in your provincial studies?

Dear Maranguape, You are posting "conjecture". It is honest and sincere inference but it is not what the verse says. Your post has 87 words ---how many are the direct translated text of the Bible? IE: A Greek Christian would have no trouble translating directly what the NT says. This is what I...

"submission" [if one does not know how to "submit" they will show them how] Namaste Jesus said:↑ They also do not worship idols. The figures and photos found on Hindu home alters are primarily used to pray through to God. They are not praying to the figures themselves. It is their way of...

Well, Lord have mercy! Double Eureka! As they say in the Greek. [an old southern saying]

"cry: Abba" Eureka! So these two verses 1000% uphold the purpose of the Hare-Krishna Mantra! So too it affirms my own citation of the Lord's Prayer's proclamation, "Hollowed be thy name" In this epoch, the only way, the only way, the only way, of spiritual penance is the recitation of the...

{{To Define "WHAT IT SAYS IN SCRIPTURE". I am sorry but I considered this a protocol. ie: When I post a philosophical point ---I am actually quoting scriptural verses rendered into common parlance. So if one asked me to show "upon what Authority [citation of scriptural verse]" do I make...

I never mentioned the words intercessor nor mentor. Some one replied to my question(s) saying "No intercessor or mentor is required to pray to God [Allah]". So I asked how can one claim that? Where is this enjoined? This was my question. Suddenly I was talking about "intercessors and...

The Prophet appreciates one's invocation ---no? PBUH is an acronym for "Peace be upon him"; likewise SAW is an acronym for sallallahu alayhi wasallam. The Qur'an states: Indeed, Allah confers blessing upon the Prophet, and His angels [ask Him to doso]. O you who have believed, ask [ Allah to...

What is it with the concept of SACRIFICE? I refer to ritual alter sacrifice. [penance is another subject]. IMO the people of the world in Jesus's time were so unfortunate due to life times worth of fruitive actions that yielded only an existential life. people of the world in Jesus's time...

The Soul defined in the Bhagavad gita The Bhagavad gita acknowledges the existence of both God and the individual souls as eternal realities. The Bhagavad gita acknowledges the incarnation of the individual souls, their delusion and bondage to the repeating cycle of births and deaths to due...

Just for posterity: EGO (ahankara, sanskrit) is the outward expression of the soul's presence "in action". There are 8,400,000 species of life, spanning all forms of living creatures from amoebas in stool to demigods in celestrial abodes. Each forms of living creature has a life force...

Yes. Absolutely correct. I agree 100%. There is a "Cycle". So you agree There is a "Cycle"? Whatever there is in the world goes through this cycle. All things cycle through birth, youth old age and death. First they are born then they die. Where does the soul disappear to? To a place of...

Btw Maranguape, my supposed presumption is that you have an opinion on WHAT IS SOUL. Correct? I admit openly WHAT THE SOUL IS. Here's my concern: MY "sources" on the subject of WHAT IS SOUL are IMO the best and ONLY source found on the planet Earth. Vesus You say you have another source of...

Dear Maranguape, please forgive the ecclesiastic joke that I shall highlight here [mind you, you should have little appreciation for it as per wahat you've said]: Maranguape thinks he has out-done every Buddhist Monk in the last 2.500 years. [Hee hee] Those the world AFTER-LIFE appear...
