Christians, Muslims, Jews - Are you cutting short your spirituality?
Most of you know who read the forums that I believe and know of something far greater than any religion. And it's something you can't preach or show people how to obtain it. Everyone has to find their own way.
But I can steer you in a bigger direction. All religions are branches of the spiritual tree. All religions preach almost the same exact "commandments" or "precepts" or whatever you want to call it. Most religions stop at 10 of these rules but some religions go to almost a 100 rules of life.
The point of religions isn't to try to disprove of each other but build on each other. It's not supposed to fight over who has more followers (that's the business side of religion...more followers equals more money).
There is something far more powerful and infinite than any religion or "god" entity.
Stopping your spiritual pursuit with the religion that you believe is cutting yourself short. All the answers will not be found in your own religion. You accept the unknown answers as "god's will" or the higher power has "all the answers." But you continue to wonder "why." Any one of us can know those "why's" ourselves as that is the true meaning of spirituality. And knowing the "why's" will only put a smile on your face with pure infinite knowledge
The purpose of this forum post is to get you to open the box a little further and look at why religions have been created since the beginning of time. No religion was first and no religion will be last.
Religions are part of the spiritual tree. Religions are part of our consciousness which is a pure form of energy that taps into the Universe that will never die. But you must look at the roots of the spiritual tree to find all your answers
"Settling" with your religious beliefs is fine but there are things far more powerful and rewarding to complete your spiritual tree. Don't be scared. Just look a little furtherYeah, I just read a ton of bickering religon posts (which I've been apart of) and just made me realize we are all fighting over small stuff. We forget the bigger picture sometimes
