SPIRITUALITY OR RELIGION?GO TO YOUR HEART FOR THE ANSWER IT WILL NEVER LIE TO YOU !Quote from the Pleiadeans:We pray neither to Creation nor to any other entities or things. Prayers are only directed on an equal level to the spirit and Creation -- but not in worship. Creation neither seeks being prayed to nor does it require prayers, although invocations may be directed toward Creation should a person so desire. Such an invocation must never be performed in a worshipful manner, for Creation does not require worship in a religious-cultlike manner. The individual, however, is free to honor and respect Creation in a prayerlike form. If a prayer is performed, it is not to be executed in a submissive manner but in a way that indicates respect or certitude. This also applies when a prayer is directed to one's own spirit, which, of course, is a fragment of Creation. A prayer must never be executed in a pleading or submissive manner but with certitude and free from any servility. One must be conscious always of one's own responsibility toward one's own self and toward others in every aspect of life.

what is on his cabin wall is something to the effect he believes we are all masters. wait. I'll go check again. wouldn't want to get it wrong and cause hooey on my head....here it is. I like it. "I think we are ALL Masters of Love and Light. We should forget tragedies from the past, and live, filled with Peace, from the Stillness inside.Love and Light to you, Dear Reader, and to All in the Universe." unquote.This is my belief also. I only see good in people, I may see something about them that bugs me, if they are, say, gossiping about someone else, and I myself, don't have a problem with the person they are tearing down. I still see only the good, I focus on the person's good points, and they may want me to join the tearing down of another, but I cannot do that. I see only the good also in the one they are tearing down. I understand how two people can have a history but I'm not a part of that history.so I see, in my vision this person's good points and disregard or overlook their faults and don't let it bother me that they have this dual nature thing going on. In that sense, maybe by seeing her as I want to see her, as a loving person, who brings others together, as she does this hostess thing all the time where she makes others comfortable, it really is an art what she does so naturally. I just see the masterful purpose in her and think that someday she will forgive and forget the one she has a bone to pick with.But it's not my bone. She seeks peace of mind. I can see her attaining that too. It's like having faith in your friends.She loves me I know, and she senses my love for her despite I am quiet when she gets on a gossip rant.She understand silence says alot perhaps.I don't think I'm really here to be a judge type. We all want peace of mind, someday we will all achieve it. This is my belief. I think talking about it helps create those conditions.I think being a good friend is not always to point out their faults, but to point out their good traits, this makes them feel good about theirselves and manifest more of that peace stuff.I always believed in the divinity of man, even when I was freshly born. I was certain love wasn't just a four letter word. I soon learned everybody had a different idea about what love is. Not everybody loved me. I always looked at life as a sacred journey, and love as a sacred thing.I still do, yet I find myself accepting what is, and owning my own soul, within patience, to see outpicture what I believe the most.It's ok if I want to wear rose colored glasses, so long as I'm not hurting anyone by what I do. There's enough negative situation in the world, I don't need to add my 2 cents to it.Love, we will take that with us. When we leave. But if we failed to love someone, or if you are a religious soul, to say failed to love God, then I doubt that there's anything you can take with you, certainly not money nor prestige can be taken to the afterlife.But do take a few jokes with you, it's a way to share yourself, your love. God is all of us put together, yet even more than the sum total of the world's population.blessings, I have this little internet certificate, for $15 you too can be a member of the clergy of the Church of Spiritual Humanism. No, I'm not selling the thing! haha! aren't you fed up with internet ads?I'm relating this certificate to the message I first quoted. We are ALL the clergy. We are the peacemakers of the new age. It's ok to be proud of yourself.
