what if i pray for something evil?

what if the only thing i want my diety of choice to give me is a night with Ice Spice?

Apparently, whomever is semitic

what causes consciousness

good one, id say the soul

the realm of the imagination or the spirit realm as its called is so interesting because ultimately without consciousness there is no reason for anything to exist, as no one would be there to experience it

i think this is in some sense proof that there is most likely an afterlife and a creator of some sort

abstract thought introspection and curiousity are responsible for pretty much all human progress, just attuning yourself to life as it is is a recipe for failure since everything is always changing

I don't believe in the fictional god of religion, but someone had to create all of this right, also the afterlife is so intriguing that im not scared of death anymore

yea i dont believe in god as described by the bible or quran at all, but i definitely believe that there is at least one creator

i actually used to agree with the last part so much it became problematic, i was so fascinated with death that i started to chase it

this post is actually extremely interesting on a philosophical level

part of my brain just gets it the other doesnt, but it seems like a logical proof that there must be a creator and that this world is born of consciousness

Basically, this world couldnt exist without consciousness because if there was nothing to experience this world it couldnt exist technically. If there is no consciousness here then it couldnt have been created in the first place, because it must have been created by something that predated the universe itself, which is consciousness itself. The universe is the product of the imagination of some 'god' or entity in a higher dimension

In reality we exist in an extremely low dimensional representation of consciousness itself, one where we are bound primarily by structures that interact via electromagnetism and gravity

the key disconnect between religion and reality is the way that "god" interacts with and perceives our reality

there is a "god", however immediately after the creation of this realm he ceased interaction. its possible that what created this universe isnt even consciously aware of the fact that he created this universe (sort of ironic)

do you think someday we can reach this higher dimension

my guess is that to some degree youll never be able to fully exist there until you die, but i think like astral projection and lucid dreams are sort of ways people can experience it in great detail

another interesting corollary is i think in this higher realm you cant really die the way you would on earth, like youre not a physical being, and just like we have conservation of mass and energy here, there would be conservation of consciousness too such that you cant just disappear completely

Frank Ocean?

For all that is secret will eventually be brought into the open, and everything that is concealed will be brought to light and made known to all.

Luke 8:17

Death.

love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you

The secret of life is to have no fear

"part of my brain just gets it the other doesnt"

Are you being cheeky with this? This is literally what the "problem" is. Your left brain is doing most of the thinking/observation for you, and you need to bring it into balance with your right brain. That's where the magic is. That's one of the elemental "occult truths."

nah u right lmao, i think the easiest way to explain what i was saying is that there has to be consciousness for anything to exist because something can only exist if it is conceptualized/imagined first which requires some level of awareness, which in turn implies that consciousness predates this material world
