By no means am I a scholar or a teacher of religions. So,
please do not take my view of them as absolute.
My goal has always been to show that all religions, deep down within, are
saying the same thing. Religion is not the cause of wars, corruption and fear.
It’s the people who manipulate religions for their own purposes who create the
wars, corruption and fears.
Religions provide a set of principles to follow that, when
followed, help you become a better person in your daily life and have a closer
and meaningful relationship with Deity of that religion.
So with that said, my understanding of Pantheism is those
who follow it see everything in nature, water, stars, plants, trees, animals
and humans as Divinity.
There are two different general beliefs among Pantheists.
One is that it is a theological or philosophical position on
religion and/or God. The other is that it is the opposite of atheism…that
everything is God. There is no difference between body (nature, animal, human)
and soul.
Can you imagine if we all respected each other, our bodies
and nature as if we were Divinity itself? Wow, wouldn’t life be a little better
than today?
If you were to follow it, it would be following a set of
principles…of Do’s and Don’ts… that would be considered masculine.
Please share with me your thoughts on Pantheism.
Namaste,
Michael
