'Belief' Articles

Beliefs are all false? Belief is a belief. We will all adopt a stance on things, make decisions about how we behave. We come up with many names for what’s inside us and why, but it all works no matter how it’s viewed. The intuition shows but doesn’t speak.

Belief is certainty. Belief is not as divided from science as people claim it is. Belief has spurned all major scientific discovery. So why do they spurn it today? Action comes before awareness, so what causes action? The regulating factor in life is beyond us. What about the natural impact of the shift in indicator species on the overall ecosystem? Belief exists even in animals. If anything it is even more obvious with them.

The mind is too strong for us to see through its limitations and disbeliefs. So we find another center. There is consciousness beyond what we call mind. The mind is part of the body and it is good that it is strong. Means we have a chance to live. It has rhythms. Is strength stiffness? In that case the strongest people are buried in our cemeteries

What is Belief?

It’s my experience that even away from organized religion, people still have very strong feelings about ‘belief’. I think I will start with what belief ultimately is.
It’s a feeling of certainty and it does not require logical support. It does require experiential support and it is necessary to human function. It is a part of [...]

Belief and Science

Does anyone have a strong belief that seems contradicted by life? Say you believe in the law of attraction. Really invested in the idea of the law of attraction, but you perceive that it doesn’t seem to work?
I’m not so sure that life contradicts what I believe rather than most people’s perceptions – the ‘common’ view – [...]

Belief, Reality and our Evolution

Magic or Shamanism is where we started.  There were no worries about who was in charge as we didn’t have time.  Our initial instincts were good, but then as we got organized and formed nations, the spirit had to have a boss and that served socially.  It allowed for great strides in cooperation, but we [...]

Focus of our Attention

What can we focus our attention on? Really we don’t actually ever focus it on objects, is too abstract. The brain always processes any sensory data well before we are even aware of the object. It is how it is supposed to function. Matter isn’t a valid choice for awareness focus.
So seems we are in [...]

Action and Rest

I have an issue of action to share. Recently I had an issue with a loss of trust. Major broad spectrum loss of trust. It was activating me like crazy. I didn’t like feeling so badly about people, even about people I love. Well no amount of action was going to fix that. I was [...]

Spiritual State

I have experienced a spiritual state. A variety of issues sort of gave me no choice. I used to suffer seizures, irregular theta waves. Those are what make you “unconscious” or at rest, but it wasn’t the sleep cycle. I wasn’t asleep, I was sort of scared. Not even aware of my body. Experienced a shift in [...]

What were you thinking?

When your imagination and your thought are in conflict, your imagination will inevitably win. You will choose behavior based on what you imagine is real, and you represent every event or situation to yourself by the same process that we call imagination.
The child who’s afraid of the monster in the closet is genuinely afraid. Their [...]
