‘whichever god’—so true—-there is some ‘no-thing’ that we’ve all witnessed—even the Native American ‘great-spirit’ falls short in their philosopher’s view—-so they term it ‘that for which there are no words’—-left with such conondrum, they had to call it something, so thousands of years prior to any known ‘religion’ they settled on ‘Nagual’—-a wonderful treatment exists in C. Castaneda’s 1st 3 books—-then he ‘sold-out’—-started cranking out bunk—-that Malibu manse was expensive—a ‘cult’ grew around him—-mostly ‘rip-off’ artist—- his best treatment, IMHO, is his ‘Tales of Power’, and ‘Journey to Ixtlan’—-great reads—-‘Nagualism’ is considered the oldest continuous ‘belief-system’—-not a religion—-as you may imagine, trying to understand the concept is ‘mind-boggling’—-but one does grasp the concept of ‘our-place’ is but one of an infinite ‘set’—-and there are no commonalities from one to the others—-yet when one ‘enters’ such, as at ‘conception’ to the ‘set-point’ we call ‘space/time’, we quickly learn its rules, which ‘dazzle’ us to our greater ‘selves’—-whatever such may be—you may never know, from ‘here’. my chief ‘beef’ w/Castaneda’s treatment is his scorn of Jesus—whose teaching comes down to ‘love-one-another’—and i feel Jesus was clearly not a religious event—rather a philosophy—how He got mired in humanity’s lunacy, but one more example of ‘who then is sane’. ie: he said he was ‘the son of man’, not God—where this ‘god gave his only son’ came from? you tell me—he never claimed such—i feel ‘religion’ an odd form of insanity, whose source is ‘fear-of-death’, ‘the unknown’, whatever—‘love one another’—-that makes sense.
