Its an example, Im not Buddhist either. What I'm implying is that predatory outlooks arent as based on mortality if you can take those who genuinely embrace mortality but shun predation.

Any thoughts or stories mi amigos want to share? I have always seen possession as similar to mediumship and there is evidence that the traits associated with being easily possessed are similar to the traits you need as a psychic, channeler, or for straight up psychosis depending on the circumstances. There is a similarity to multiple personality disorder as well. Possession. Now there's a poor label for a concept. You mean 'bodily possession'? or 'awareness'? or 'perception'? I've seen a man's attention knock another's out of his body. I've seen this with my own eyes. Well perhaps there are different types. I don't think they are all necessarily negative either. Sometimes contact with entities can provoke states of high focus or massive inspiration. I know its generally implied that its a bad thing but that seems sort of a knee-jerk reaction.

Lately I often wonder how right it is to act on these inspirations either way. If it's by God, then by acting on it we are either in the production of a graven image or we are effectively insubordinating. If it's by Satan then we are in the act of worshipping Satan. It seems sometimes as though God must've intended Adam and Jesus to be very boring, drab work-a-day fellows indeed.

I believe that even you, if you're honest with yourself and disregard all dogma, know the price each action you take has on you. Morals are a universal concept not tied to religion.

I dunno. Maybe not insubordinating. I mean if God tells you to do something and you do it, that's generally not insubordinating I guess. Lets just say I'm confused and can note very many seemingly blurry lines.

Let me tell you from an outside perspective, you might think you're confused. But from the way you write I can clearly see that you are walking right besides gawd. From my own view god, the one I know, is honestly enjoying sharing life with one. It took me 26 years to get to know god and myself, and we are still not finished by a long shot. <3 (Of course I could be wrong and end up in hell to burrn forever just for writing this if some people claiming authority over what god is and is not are to be believed... who knows? )

How does one know when God's voice is really God? I have an answer in mind but I want to hear other opinions.

That is a VERY good question, Caylus. Because in general, when telepathy happens with beings, you have a link point...consider it like being a unique fingerprint to their energy line. That's how you keep them all separate. Now if you don't know this, you might not know when person/being A, B, C is talking to you and might mistake them for God if they say they're God. And who is to say what a person feels when God talks directly to them. I honestly don't know that ANYONE can answer that question factually.

Tone, inflection, and integrity I would think. When it 'rings' with Shakti/Holy Spirit, I would say it's definitely along the tracks of the divine. Then again, God does not lie, but our brains certainly can and do.

Personally I believe in both interpersonal telepathy and the notion of 'God' talking to us. I don't think they are necessarily one and the same.

I suppose V must have the closest idea about this, it must resonate that way, but even then it seems we cannot be sure.

*shrug* One side feels like....a cat with a mouse? energetic impression of immense power with malevolent intent....overpowering aura, etc. Succumbing amplifier..... we are more powerful then aware
other....heh.... someone ya known for years, suddenly you cant look em in the eyes they couldnt concieve of doing selfish, no concept of hate... perhaps the true unconditional love of a parent towards child..? kinda...?
meh, perhaps ill story format this when im on a lappy. that.....was a trippy as fuck night...and i really wish i was on lsd to atleast counter ze film ranted on this b4 kinda, had some weird ass stuff occur, but this was personal, ya know, so sticks in my craw *chuckle* what a twist... "real life" gave me the opportunity to confront above mentioned "bad side" couple days later. ever seen panic? *chuckle* and the kicker? the person who was "good".... they dont remember the night....its like it never occured... and they dam near gave me a counseling session.
anywho, nuff insanity from me
