My main point here is that if you are the child of God and God is a part of you, the in your imagination God suppose to look like you. And when you accept a picture of the deity assigned to you by another people, you become the spiritual prisoners of that other people.John Henrik Clarke

Religion is the organization of spirituality into something that became the hand maiden of conquerors. Nearly all religions were brought to people and imposed on people by conquerors, and used as the framework to control their minds.John Henrik Clarke

Study the past.
You could have long since
become the master of your existence, if only your thinking were in the
direction of truth. You are cowardly in your thinking, Little Man,
because real thinking is accompanied by bodily feelings, and you are
afraid of your body. Many great men have told you: Go back to your
origin - listen to your inner voice - follow your true feelings -
cherish love.

Religious Door-to-Door Converters Spirituality

Religious Door-to-Door Converters Spirituality

Religious Converters always knock your... door disturbing your peace. These converters
are an example of religious madness. Imagine if the whole world was
converted to one religion, people will still find a reason to kill each
other. Why convert others from one religion to another religion, while
keeping them in a small box.

Enlightened Master, Acharya Shree Yogeesh,
emphasizes the only reason to convert: Convert the people's hearts.
Convert them to be more compassionate, kind, and loving people. There's
no need to convert their religion, convert their hearts.Transcription:Are
religious door-to-door converters doing the right thing?

This is
really a revolutionary question. Anger is the madness of the mind but
religious madness is the worst kind of madness.Sometimes there
are people who will knock on your door during the early hours of the
morning, who have come to convert you. They will disturb you while you
are spending time with your family.I had an experience with
three religious converters.

They did not know I was a Spiritual Teacher.
They were happy that I invited them into the living room, because they
found someone to convert. They were determined. I was ready to be
converted.I asked them first, 'Do you believe that we are all
Children of God?''Yes, he is our Father,' they answered.'Then
why are we poor, if we are his children? Do you think God is Almighty?'
'Yes, God is Almighty.

God is everywhere, he can do as he wishes.'According
to them God was a male. They called him Father. They never said that
God could be a called Mother.'If he is the Father, then why are
we suffering? Why do we have pain? I know that a very ordinary father
will not eat, if he sees his child suffering with disease or pain. He
will feel the pain of the child. Until the child is cured, that father
cannot relax.

How do you think your Father will feel knowing all of his
children are suffering? Do you think he can rest in peace?'As
soon as the men heard my answer they whispered to other saying that I
was a difficult person to convert.

However, they found an answer.'It
is Satan who makes us suffer.''I accept your idea that it is
because of Satan we are suffering. God doesn't make us suffer, only
Satan

can,' I replied. ' So then, who created this world?''God.''Who
created Satain?''God.''Who is responsible for our suffering if
God created Satan?'Satan is speaking through you.

They never
bothered me again.This is an example of what I call religious
madness.

They came to convert me, but truly what are they trying to
convert? If a person is already following Catholicism and a Jehovah's
Witness has come to convert, what happens next? They are making a person
chance from one small box to the next.

Islam is also an example
of religious madness. It is important to mention that it is unfortunate
that all the terrorists are Muslim. Osama bin Laden said that the whole
world should be Muslim. Imagine if the whole world became like him.

We
will go back to the Stone Age. These Muslim terrorists have given their
own religion a bad name. Why? There is a saying that if one fish dies in
a small pond, it spoils the water of the entire pond. These Islamic
terrorists, Jihadists, are ruining the name of good Muslims.

There are
good people too among them.The idea to convert religions is
religious madness. Converting is not good. Converting doesn't make
people become better.

Those who are religious and do not convert are
better people. By converting from one religion to another, religious
madness does not go away.

If you want to convert I will give you an
idea. Convert a person's heart. Make a person good. Make him/her
compassionate, non-violent, loving, and someone better in society.Change
their heart, not their religion.

Dead Enlightened Masters and Living Enlightened Masters

Dead Enlightened Masters and Living Enlightened Masters

Transcription Living Master
versus Dead Master Spiritual seekers are confused by this
concept. It is easy to be with a dead master who has left his body
because a dead master does not react to you. It is common tradition and
practice in India to worship dead teachers. It is easy for people to
worship God because God is bodiless. Many enlightened masters like
Mahavira, Buddha, and Jesus no longer have a physical body therefore
many spiritual seekers find it easy to be with them.

No matter what you
shower upon them with your prayers they do not react to you.... See More Contrarily, it is very difficult to be
with a live master because he will react to every one of your mistakes
and make you aware of them. No one likes to experience it, but a live
master will constantly keep an eye on you and correct you. He is looking
to lift you up and unfold your consciousness.

The entire Eastern
world is clinging to dead masters because live masters are too
difficult to be around. Live masters are always criticized because they
will speak the bitter truth. Throughout history live masters were
stoned, persecuted, and killed. Once they are dead they are worshipped
by millions of people. Look at Mahavira, Buddha, and Jesus and how many
followers there are today. Dead masters do not react now. How easy it is
to follow them.Learning has to be done through the live master
because he wants to teach you for your own goodness. A live teacher has
five qualities -- he can be seen, smelled, heard, his presence can be
felt and he can be fully absorbed because he is in your presence.

Dead
masters have good teachings but they are lacking these qualities. Unless
you have known a master who is deceased you cannot learn from a
departed master. Even though you will encounter difficulty learn from
the live master, it is beneficial for you.-----Many
enlightened masters have touched this earth, Jesus, Buddha, Mahavir,
however, they are unable to communicate their true teachings because
they are no longer in their body.

If someone misinterprets their
teachings, these dead masters cannot correct your thinking and
interpretation. Their instrument of body is no longer available.
However, most set up traditions, churches, and doctrines trying to
preserve their interpretations of these gurus, when in actuality they
are going further away from the true essence. It is better to come into
contact with a true living enlightened master where they can correct and
guide you to yourself. Only true living masters will not teach religion
or tradition to you.about a

Carl Sagan "100 Billion Galaxies each W/100 Billion Stars"

Carl Sagan '100 Billion Galaxies each W/100 Billion Stars'

Source: www.youtube.com

'There are in fact 100 billion galaxies, each of which contain something like a 100 billion stars. Think of how many stars, and planets, and kinds of life there may be in this vast and awesome universe.' ...

You can't convince a believer of anything; for their belief is not based on evidence, it's based on a deep seated need to believe. [Dr. Arroway in Carl Sagan's Contact (New York: Pocket Books, 1985]

We don't agree on who or what god is on this planet! there are 100 billion stars/suns in our galaxy,the nearest star to our Sun is Proxima Centauri, which is 4.2421 light years away.A light year is roughly 5,878,630,000,000 (5.8 Trillion miles)

The idea that God is an oversized white male with a flowing beard who sits in the sky and tallies the fall of every sparrow is ludicrous. But if by God one means the set of physical laws that govern the universe, then clearly there is such a God. This God is emotionally unsatisfying... it does not make much sense to pray to the law of gravity. [Carl Sagan]

One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we've been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We're no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. it is simply too painful to acknowledge -- even to ourselves -- that we've been so credulous. (So the old bamboozles tend to persist as the new bamboozles rise.) [Carl Sagan, The Fine Art of Baloney Detection]

Finding the occasional straw of truth awash in a great ocean of confusion and bamboozle requires intelligence, vigilance, dedication and courage. But if we don't practice these tough habits of thought, we cannot hope to solve the truly serious problems that face us -- and we risk becoming a nation of suckers, up for grabs by the next charlatan who comes along. [Carl Sagan, The Fine Art of Baloney Detection]

A light year is roughly 5,878,630,000,000 (5.8 Trillion miles), so

Proxima Centauri is around 24,937,736,323,000, or about 25 trillion miles.

The major religions on the Earth contradict each other left and rightYou can't all be correct. And what if all of you are wrong? It's a possibility, you know. You must care about the truth, right? Well, the way to winnow through all the differing contentions is to be skeptical. I'm not any more skeptical about your religious beliefs than I am about every new scientific idea I hear about. But in my line of work, they're called hypotheses, not inspiration and not revelation. [Dr. Arroway in Carl Sagan's Contact (New York: Pocket Books, 1985), p. 162. ]
What I'm saying is, if God wanted to send us a message, and ancient writings were the only way he could think of doing it, he could have done a better job. [Dr. Arroway in Carl Sagan's Contact (New York: Pocket Books, 1985), p. 164.]


Anything you don't understand, Mr. Rankin, you attribute to God. God for you is where you sweep away all the mysteries of the world, all the challenges to our intelligence. You simply turn your mind off and say God did it. [Dr. Arroway in Carl Sagan's Contact (New York: Pocket Books, 1985), p. 166.]


The question [Do you believe in God?] has a peculiar structure. If I say no, do I mean I'm convinced God doesn't exist, or do I mean I'm not convinced he does exist? Those are two very different questions. [Dr. Arroway in Carl Sagan's Contact (New York: Pocket Books, 1985), p. 168.]


My faith is strong I don't need proofs, but every time a new fact comes along it simply confirms my faith. [Palmer Joss in Carl Sagan's Contact (New York: Pocket Books, 1985), p. 172.]


You see, the religious people -- most of them -- really think this planet is an experiment. That's what their beliefs come down to. Some god or other is always fixing and poking, messing around with tradesmen's wives, giving tablets on mountains, commanding you to mutilate your children, telling people what words they can say and what words they can't say, making people feel guilty about enjoying themselves, and like that. Why can't the gods leave well enough alone? All this intervention speaks of incompetence. If God didn't want Lot's wife to look back, why didn't he make her obedient, so she'd do what her husband told her? Or if he hadn't made Lot such a shithead, maybe she would've listened to him more. If God is omnipotent and omniscient, why didn't he start the universe out in the first place so it would come out the way he wants? Why's he constantly repairing and complaining? No, there's one thing the Bible makes clear: The biblical God is a sloppy manufacturer. He's not good at design, he's not good at execution. He'd be out of business if there was any competition. [Sol Hadden in Carl Sagan's Contact (New York: Pocket Books, 1985), p. 285.]


The Earth is an object lesson for the apprentice gods. 'If you really screw up,' they get told, 'you'll make something like Earth.' [Dr. Arroway in Carl Sagan's Contact (New York: Pocket Books, 1985), p. 286.]


Part of my message is that we're not central to the purpose of the Cosmos. What happened to me makes us all seem very small. [Dr. Arroway in Carl Sagan's Contact (New York: Pocket Books, 1985), p. 420.]


(When asked merely if they accept evolution, 45 percent of Americans say yes. The figure is 70 percent in China.) When the movie Jurassic Park was shown in Israel, it was condemned by some Orthodox rabbis because it accepted evolution and because it taught that dinosaurs lived a hundred million years ago--when, as is plainly stated at every Rosh Hashonhan and every Jewish wedding ceremony, the Universe is less than 6,000 years old. [Carl Sagan, _The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark_, p. 325]


I would love to believe that when I die I will live again, that some thinking, feeling, remembering part of me will continue. But much as I want to believe that, and despite the ancient and worldwide cultural traditions that assert an afterlife, I know of nothing to suggest that it is more than wishful thinking. The world is so exquisite with so much love and moral depth, that there is no reason to deceive ourselves with pretty stories for which there's little good evidence. Far better it seems to me, in our vulnerability, is to look death in the eye and to be grateful every day for the brief but magnificent opportunity that life provides. [Carl Sagan, 1996 in his article In the Valley of the Shadow Parade Magazine Also, Billions and Billions p. 215]


The politicians and the religious leaders and the weapons scientists have been at it for a long time and they've made a thorough mess of it. I mean, we're in deep trouble. [Carl Sagan, A&E Biography interview]


Life is but a momentary glimpse of the wonder of this astonishing universe, and it is sad to see so many dreaming it away on spiritual fantasy. [Carl Sagan]


In many cultures it is customary to answer that God created the universe out of nothing. But this is mere temporizing. If we wish courageously to pursue the question, we must, of course ask next where God comes from? And if we decide this to be unanswerable, why not save a step and conclude that the universe has always existed? [Carl Sagan, Cosmos, page 257]


Skeptical scrutiny is the means, in both science and religion, by which deep thoughts can be winnowed from deep nonsense. [Carl Sagan]


Many statements about God are confidently made by theologians on grounds that today at least sound specious. Thomas Aquinas claimed to prove that God cannot make another God, or commit suicide, or make a man without a soul, or even make a triangle whose interior angles do not equal 180 degrees. But Bolyai and Lobachevsky were able to accomplish this last feat (on a curved surface) in the nineteenth century, and they were not even approximately gods. [Carl Sagan, Broca's Brain]


We should be teaching our children the scientific method and the reasons for a Bill of Rights. With it comes a certain decency, humility and community spirit. [Carl Sagan, on secular morality]


One prominent American religion confidently predicted that the world would end in 1914. Well, 1914 has come and gone, and - whole the events of that year were certainly of some importance - the world did not, at least so far as I can see, seem to have ended. There are at least three responses that an organized religion can make in the face of such a failed and fundamental prophecy. They could have said, Oh, did we say '1914'? So sorry, we meant '2014'. A slight error in calculation. Hope you weren't inconvinenced in any way. But they did not. They could have said, Well, the world would have ended, except we prayed very hard and interceded with God so He spared the Earth. But they did not. Instead, the did something much more ingenious. They announced that the world had in fact ended in 1914, and if the rest of us hadn't noticed, that was our lookout. It is astonishing in the fact of such transparent evasions that this religion has any adherents at all. But religions are tough. Either they make no contentions which are subject to disproof or they quickly redesign doctrine after disproof. The fact that religions can be so shamelessly dishonest, so contemptuous of the intelligence of their adherents, and still flourish does not speak very well for the tough- mindedness of the believers. But it does indicate, if a demonstration was needed, that near the core of the religious experience is something remarkably resistant to rational inquiry. [Carl Sagan, Broca's Brain]


In a democracy, opinions that upset everyone are sometimes exactly what we need. We should be teaching our children the scientific method and the Bill of Rights. [Carl Sagan & Ann Druyan]


It means nothing to be open to a proposition we don't understand. [Carl Sagan]


There are many hypotheses in science which are wrong. That's perfectly all right; they're the aperture to finding out what's right. Science is a self-correcting process. To be accepted, new ideas must survive the most rigorous standards of evidence and scrutiny. [Carl Sagan, Cosmos television series]


I worry that, especially as the Millennium edges nearer, pseudoscience and superstition will seem year by year more tempting, the siren song of unreason more sonorous and attractive. Where have we heard it before? Whenever our ethnic or national prejudices are aroused, in times of scarcity, during challenges to national self-esteem or nerve, when we agonize about our diminished cosmic place and purpose, or when fanaticism is bubbling up around us-then, habits of thought familiar from ages past reach for the controls.
The candle flame gutters. Its little pool of light trembles. Darkness gathers. The demons begin to stir. [Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science As a Candle in the Dark]

If we're capable of conjuring up terrifying monsters in childhood, why shouldn't some of us, at least on occasion, be able to fantasize something similar, something truly horrifying, a shared delusion, as adults? [Carl Sagan, The Demon Haunted World, p. 109]


If some good evidence for life after death were announced, I'd be eager to examine it; but it would have to be real scientific data, not mere anecdote. As with the face on Mars and alien abductions, better the hard truth, I say, than the comforting fantasy. [Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World, p. 204 quoted in 2000 Years of Disbelief, Famous People with the Courage to Doubt, by James A. Haught, Prometheus Books, 1996]


If you want to save your child from polio, you can pray or you can inoculate....Try science. [Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World, p. 30, quoted in 2000 Years of Disbelief, Famous People with the Courage to Doubt, by James A. Haught, Prometheus Books, 1996]


Since World War II, Japan has spawned enormous numbers of new religions featuring the supernatural.... In Thailand, diseases are treated with pills manufactured from pulverized sacred Scripture. Witches are today being burned in South Africa.... The worldwide TM [Transcendental Meditation] organization has an estimated valuation of $3 billion. For a fee, they promise to make you invisible, to enable you to fly. [Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World, p. 16, from James A. Haught, ed., 2000 Years of Disbelief, Famous People with the Courage to Doubt]


In Italy, the Inquisition was condemning people to death until the end of the eighteenth century, and inquisitional torture was not abolished in the Catholic Church until 1816. The last bastion of support for the reality of witchcraft and the necessity of punishment has been the Christian churches. [Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World, p. 413, from James A. Haught, ed., 2000 Years of Disbelief, Famous People with the Courage to Doubt, by James A. Haught, Prometheus Books, 1996]


If we long to believe that the stars rise and set for us, that we are the reason there is a Universe, does science do us a disservice in deflating our conceits?....For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring. [Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science As a Candle in the Dark]


At the extremes it is difficult to distinguish pseudoscience from rigid, doctrinaire religion. [Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science As a Candle in the Dark]


Avoidable human misery is more often caused not so much by stupidity as by ignorance, particularly our own ignorance about ourselves. [Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science As a Candle in the Dark]


Think of how many religions attempt to validate themselves with prophecy. Think of how many people rely on these prophecies, however vague, however unfulfilled, to support or prop up their beliefs. Yet has there ever been a religion with the prophetic accuracy and reliability of science? [Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science As a Candle in the Dark]


Is it fair to be suspicious of an entire profession because of a few bad apples? There are at least two important differences, it seems to me. First, no one doubts that science actually works, whatever mistaken and fraudulent claim may from time to time be offered. But whether there are any miraculous cures from faith-healing, beyond the body's own ability to cure itself, is very much at issue. Secondly, the expose' of fraud and error in science is made almost exclusively by science. But the exposure of fraud and error in faith-healing is almost never done by other faith-healers. [Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science As a Candle in the Dark]


Our species needs, and deserves, a citizenry with minds wide awake and a basic understanding of how the world works. [Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World]


Advances in medicine and agriculture have saved vastly more lives than have been lost in all the wars in history. [Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science As a Candle in the Dark]


Virtually every major technological advance in the history of the human species-- back to the invention of stone tools and the domestication of fire-- has been ethically ambiguous. [Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science As a Candle in the Dark]
