Do you believe in God?

Then perhaps we might get into the various and specific definitions of “Jesus Christ” and what He represents for different people. For example, if you break down the name of Jesus Christ into its literal transliteration of the Latin/Greek you go from Je Suis le Christos or “I AM the Christos” or “I AM that which is privileged to come forward or pass through” as in wisdom that has been filtered through cheesecloth to separate out the knowledge that is prejudiced by greed, anger, hate, sadness, etc. so that only “pure” wisdom results. Since the name “Jesus Christ” does not exist in the Bible in pre-English/German or pre-King James/Martin Luther versions you need to look at how the name came to be in existence. It was the French Templar Knights who assisted both Martin Luther and King James in their translations. The German language itself was codified or solidified by the Lutheran version of the Bible because Martin Luther needed to pick and choose between the many different dialects that existed in the various villages in that area of Europe at the time. Some people think that the name Jesus Christ is itself the “Holy Grael” or the esoteric/metaphoric container of Truth if you truly understand this concept. Then, the name of Jesus Christ has far more significance than simply that of a human being.

I tend to take a practical approach to the topic of God.  I created the word, “Practicalitivinity” which is a combination of the words practical and Divinity.  I was raised American Baptist had a LOT of Jewish and Catholic friends.  I learned Objectivism from Ayn Rand, Esoteric Chrisitanity from Gurdjieff, and Synergetics from Bucky Fuller.  In my mind's eye I never saw ANY difference between any of the various religions and/or wisdom-oriented philosophies.  It was like my brain automatically “deciphered” esoteric metaphor into realistic terms and meanings.  It literally hurt my heart to see people fight over what was to me ridiculous literal interpretations of supposedly “sacred” texts.  Their “dogmatic insanity” precluded me from explaining my understanding of things.  It was like the real me was invisible and in order to get along with people I felt like I had to “play dumb.”  In today's political realm it feels the same way.  Thank goodness for the ultimate evolution of concepts like “Integral Dialogue” and forum-oriented environments like GAIA.com.  And, thank goodness as well for someone like Barack Obama who has somehow managed to learn to verbalize enlightened “cross-over” explanations of some relatively complex concepts within the last six months.  I would not have thought twice about him prior to that.  I have since been moved to assist Mr. Obama whereas previously I have had absolutely no motivation what-so-ever to be involved in politics due to the obvious-to-me disconnection between vote and act.  For me, beyond all appearances, there was no such thing as democracy.  At least now I feel like there is someone who can explain “why” some activities of the “powers-that-be” (God/gods) are far too complex to be voted on by the lowest common denominator majority of the people and why the fascist-seeming “arms of God” NEED to be behind-the-scenes (unseen), people simply can't seem to understand the “true” meanings of the religious metaphors from the many different perspectives.  The average person appears to be totally unmotivated to transcend their “sins” (insane reasonings) because their brains hurt too much to think about paradoxical proclivities.  “The human world is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma.”  Multiple layers of seemingly disconcerted phenomena.

“Father forgive them for they (truly) know not what they do.”  The human world is truly insane (don't know any better) and the people who come to understand this concept are, by their understanding, no longer “human.”  If these people are also free from greed, hate, anger, sadness, frustration, etc. then they are said to be divine and are depicted with glowing heads or have halos around their heads demonstrating “mini suns” or “suns of God.”

“PROOF” That God DOES Exist

Aside from the issue of some people denying the existence of God at all costs…  ;o)

You CAN prove to yourself that God actually exists and you can hear the word of God for yourself.  Obviously this depends upon each individual person's personal definition of God.  In the historical sense when people heard the word of God obviously they were hearing their own inner voices but without the understanding of how the brain actually worked they may not have recognized those voices.  Most people appear to have dysfunctional aspects of their personality that result in emotional expression such as greed, ego, fear, hate, anger, sadness, frustration, etc.  “God's voice” in the historical sense is, literally speaking, the aspect of one's own conscious awareness that is devoid or absent these dysfunctionaly reactive emotional dynamics.  In other words, God equals pure wisdom and it helps to train yourself to hear or listen to that type of wisdom.  Unfortunately most religions do not explain this concept very effectively in my experience because they seem to want to have it manifest magically or miraculously or whatever.  Perhaps they don't want people to know that they are tricking them, using hypnotic auto-suggestion, or otherwise psychologically influencing them so that they become better people?  Perhaps this is their way of helping people transcend or supercede the ego?

Okay, here is the proof…

Before you go to sleep at night you can ask yourself a question that you REALLY want to know the answer to.  Then, within several hours of waking up in the morning the answer will pop into your head.  This is effectively God speaking to you as if you had offered a prayer or some type of request to God.  This kind of thing can also work for finding your keys, a book, or remembering a childhood friend's name or legal citation.  The brain literally remembers everything that you have ever experienced or thought about and you can retrieve that information with this simple practice.

I have also experienced this situation while driving my car and having an idea that I wanted to write down but could not do so without putting myself in danger.  So, I repeated the idea to myself ten times and asked myself to remember to write it down when I was at or near my computer.  Sure enough, as soon as I saw my computer I remembered my previous thought.  If I have more than one thought then I tell myself how many thoughts that I had and this helps to trigger additional remembrances.
