Thoughts on 'Religion'

Einstein said: “Whoever undertakes to set himself up as a Judge of Truth and Knowledge, is shipwrecked by the laughter of The Gods.”

I grew up going to Christian Sunday school till I was 7… I have been to Israel 3 times as my dad is of Jewish lineage.. I met the Dalai Lama when i was 12 at his monastery in India…

all religions have been “guiding light” for people of various cultures and backgrounds all over Planet Earth, and there's nothing wrong with that… but since we are in a new era.. the information age.. i see the old paradigm of religion disolving…

Everyone has their own 'Truth'; my truth today is not what it was 10 years ago, 3 years ago or even 1 year ago, and it will definitely not be what it is today 10 years from now!

so Truth itself is evolving! for each of us… and no ones truth 'over-rides' anothers… for we all are unique, but on a deeper level we share the truth that “we are all one/connected”



religion used to 'erk' me or make me mad when i saw people so caught up in their beliefs that they would have hate for others who didn't share their same beliefs (and even kill one another)… how could every religion claim to be 'right' and all the others to be 'wrong.'


i guess whatever you believe is your truth, and no one can change that for you.

there is a difference between having a belief and having an idea…

But open-mindedness is really what it boils down to.

As youth fades and time brings changes, we may change many of our present opinions. So let us refrain from setting ourselves up as judges of the 'highest matters'.

live and let live, lets be in harmony and respect one another.

My fathers 'religion is being in nature'

The Dalai Lama said “My religion is compassion.”

I agree with both, dont you?

My "Mission Statement"

Posted on Feb 5th, 2007 by Jordan : light blood cell Jordan

With a new found resolve for "Being The Change", I can trust the process, and know that everything will happen in perfect timing. I'm being supported to realize my dreams. I am grounded, focused and determined to do big things in this life. I know these masterpieces will not manifest overnight, but if I take it step-by-step, and continue to face fears, stand for what I believe and always do my best, I cannot fail. Consistent efforts towards a goal will eventually manifest that goal, and possibly more than I ever dreamed, and all it takes is daily attention. I have built castles in the air, and now I will begin putting the foundations under them.


I feel so excited as if it truly is my new era. I now believe I can create anything I want! I not only believe it, but I can feel it! I feel this energy growing and snowballing inside of me, and it is rubbing off on other people. I still realize that I have limits, but I believe I can go beyond them. I'm ready to create a new reality in the face of adversity, and I don't mind being different, infact I embrace it!..."If loving the Lord is wrong, I don't want to be right!" Hahaha...


In this new centered, confident and calm approach to creating "A New World", I would really like to take much pleasure out of my existence here on Earth. I will not have desires run my life on one hand, and on the other, I don't want to be completely inundated with ‘my work', as freedom is important to me. I am dedicated and committed to my goals, so if my lifes work revolves around service oriented goals, that will bring me great joy! One of the first lessons I learned growing up was to "Find The Middle Path", and this lesson will continue to guide me as I grow. I need to set clear goals, intentions, and visions, as time is of the essence, and I am eager to start contibuting to and co-creating this magical ‘New Earth' that has been prophecied for years. "What we are is God's gift to us, but what we do/create is our gift to God."  What can I do? What can I create? Where can I start? There are many options and answers to this, and when the time comes I will know. Above all, to remain humble, kind (in the heart), honest, and compassionate, is of the utmost importance and will serve as pillars on which I can build my castles. To not react harshly when I see people mistreating others and animals, or throwing litter on the ground ignorantly (for example), but to remain centred and calm, love them up anyways, however difficult it may seem, for they are doing the best they know how. From a place of compassion I can see/feel their struggle, understand their position, and transform it energetically by taking my vibrational stance. We are all connected, we are all one, we are all responsible. "There are no passengers on SpaceShip Earth. There is only crew." What have I done to create this ill behaviour which I am witnessing. How can I absorb it, transform it, and let it go? I thank The Universe for all that is, for as I witness what I dislike, what makes me uncomfortable, or what angers me, I know more specifically what it is I do want to create. As a born-again powerful creator called to greatness, it is my obligation to do just that, and I intend to realize all dreams, wishes, and goals, and I will also help others realize theirs.


"As we move forward, our fate can be lived directly along the line of destiny or we can sway from left to right, yet our destiny will always bring us back to where it is relevent. There are an infinite amount of ways to learn the same lessons, and learning lessons is growth of the soul. So we freely choose (within reason) how to learn those lessons which are predetermined." I don't know how much truth there is in this statement, and perhaps it's different for different people. I've also heard "We can choose to create of our lives an accident or an adventure." Well, I don't want to sit back and let it happen. I want to take the ‘bull by the horns', and ride this wave of adventure.


I feel like an arrow in the hands of a strong and accurate archer (maybe God), brimming with intention and aligned with precise aim, I'm about to be released, shooting straight far, and true. 


The Future is Now, and Here I Am. Thank You.
