According to may sufis, there are two analogies used to describe sufism : 1. Boat is the sharia; the diving/swimming skill is tariqah; the ocean is the haqiqah; and the pearl is marifah; So in order to get the marifah, you should start with the sharia, then if you are equipped with tariqah, you'll be able to get deep in the ocean of haqiqah and get what's the essence of your spirituality, which is the marifah. 2. Sharia is a plant; tariqah is the way yo treat it (cultivate, fertilize, water); the fruits that comes from the plant is haqiqah; the pleasure of eating the fruits is marifah.

Went through the same phase. I still agree that all religions on earth are obviously made up, but I also came to realize that religion emotionally supports people and brings a sense of community. So I don't go around attacking literally everyone that believes, or starting fights everywhere. It's only when someone starts making outrageous claims that they have THE 1 true religion, well then out of principle I can't let them get away with it. Or when I see someone suffer because of their religion, then I can't help but deconvert them either. Otherwise, live n let live.

Similarly, the passive nature of Catholicism, and the belief that suffering is rewarded in heaven, is often used to explain the underdevelopment of Latin America.

. Sometimes words, whether spoken or written, can be just exactly the right catalyst for a particular aspirant at a particular time and place to give rise to a powerful non-conceptual mystical experience - such as a satori, in zen. The experience cannot be understood in words, but words can be a useful tool in setting up a pre-satori state within the individual. Just a little "push" of some kind can then be all it takes.

You are a very smart guy and all your videos are brilliant because you are very inteligent, honest and competent in your subject, but you must know that the distinction between life and not-life is very clear and physically real. Erwin Schrödinger stated it first AFAIK and since then every scientist on earth knows that feeding with negative entropy is the distinguishing feature of life. So, down to cellular level, thermodynamical parameters give definitive answer and there have been ABSOLUTELY NO doubts about Schrödinger's definition. And this definition is not just a thought of one of the greatest geniuses in whole history, but a very logical scientific statement which is obvious to every physicist. It is so fundamental and general that it IS true for every possible and even totally unimaginable life forms as the physical reality is universal at least in whole our universe particularly :). Of course there are tons of popular so-called and even graduated "scientists" who haven't read Schrödinger's book "what is life from the physicist's point of view" or have failed to understand it because of lack of fundamental knowledge, but don't believe them despite the number of their ignirant followers. As for the intelligence and conciousness, there's no physical or chemical definition and whatever you say can not be considered definitively wrong.

Regarding religions that are simple: In its most basic form, Pure Land Buddhism is perhaps the simplest school of Buddhism to practice and comprehend -- but that assumes a basic understanding of Mahayana Buddhist cosmology and the Bodhisattva Path to Buddhahood. For the uninitiated, it's maybe not that simple. Interestingly, though, some schools of Pure Land claim that a lack of understanding is not a barrier to reaching the goal. No matter how ignorant one is, if the name of Amitabha Buddha is recited with sincerity and an abiding wish for rebirth in the Pure Land, that is enough.

Going deeper into the question of aliens from a mystical perspective, I know some indigenous peoples like the Shipibo=Conibo believe that when they chant prayers in their spiritual rituals they believe that their prayers are joined with all other conscious beings in the Universe who are also praying. There is a prayer in the Eastern Orthodox Chuch which goes "Let all who have breath worship the Lord" and their mindset is all of creation IN the universe. This being said, do you know of any Christian perspective, schism, prayer, saint, mystic, etc., etc., (maybe Giordano Bruno??) who believed that we can and should as a spiritual discipline/practice unite in prayer, worship of God, or Oneness generally with all Divine creation in the universe??

A religion (or spiritual tradition) that appears simple on the surface and yet has deeper or more "complicated" spheres of meaning is Advaita Vedanta. Or should I say, the simplest I know of, is the modern interpretations of Ramana Maharishis school of Advaita Vedenta held by Mooji and his like. The beauty of Self Inquiry lays in its simplicity. Asking one central question - Who Am I? - when any thought or destructive pattern of the mind reoccurs, this question affirms the God-like connective sphere of The Heart, or Self (Siva) "behind the heart" -- what the Sufis would call The Kernel of The Kernel -- this introduces the devotee to a very simple Heart meditation that when practiced can lead to complete disillusion of ego attachments. I'd say that is as simple as it gets.

Better question: can I eat one? Belief without caloric content is not nutritious.

33:01 I also think it doesn’t hurt to learn new philosophies to incorporate into ones life. For example, I know lots of atheists who’ve read the Buddhist scriptures and while they may not be Buddhist they took a piece of the dharma philosophy and enhanced their own life. If you don’t view it religiously or just ignore the fantastical parts, it becomes similar to reading other ppls philosophies and self help methods to life.

Transmissible mystical ideas: They are not because their “language” is not communicative but cognitove, or abstract. Just like the magic of making love or enjoying music. That’s why I don’t look into science to learn relogion, but into fine arts and love.

A video on Catharism? Catharism was right for me. The Laurel Bloomed green again right when Guillume said it would. But at that time it seemed then, for me, about my uncle. Holy gral...King Arthur etc.

Personally, I think religion is going away. Or what we used to think of religion anyway. I was raised Christian. I started studying other religions around my college years. At this point I don't have a religion anymore, but I do believe in magic. I do believe in witchcraft. I do believe in prayer. I don't believe in God. I do believe a lot of the religious traditions are healthy to practice (for some people anyway). Especially if you were born and are still in the lower class in your country as I am. The concepts of religions help me rationalize my natural jealousies and hatred. I think it's really fantastic that some people don't have natural jealousies and hatred, but I do. And I will probably always have that. And the thing is conscious pain is a million times better than subconscious pain. That's why I really like your channel sir. It helps me process my emotions. It teaches me ways and beliefs of different people throughout history. And pain of course is universal. Aging is universal.
