What is the way?
by Interfaithhttps://i0.wp.com/www.mormonstories.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Only-True-Religion.jpg?ssl=1 I think they are like a map, garmon or GPS, we continue to not find our way so stories, avatars or technology are created to provide us the path, to find our way back within.

Spiritual Bypassing

An example from Buddhist circles: Using the concept of the “Emptiness of Phenomena” to justify unethical […]
Nietzsche
by InterfaithIn a recent thread, @Ahanu mentioned having read certain texts of Nietzsche very carefully on the recommendation of a roommate. Since I only casually read “The Gay Science” and “Thus Spoke Zarathustra”, decades ago, and admittedly for the shock value (I was a believer back then), I would like to have a more in-depth discussion of his […]
