I came upon this thread when looking at new posts.
Thank you. I've been told to surround myself with what I desire. I am finding it here in the posts written with love and acceptance.
Blessings to all on this beautiful day.

DaniMae, welcome to the sacred circle, what your belief is at the moment is not important, it will come in time and only you know when that will be, just make sure that you are comfortable with it and that it feels right with you, you sound like you're in search of something, take the time to look around and check out everything and make sure that whatever belief you decide to choose is the right one for you.osay

One of the great American Mystery Novelists wrote about the Navajo beliefs......that the essential element in health was to restore each other to harmony. To be one with the great spirit, to be one with the world around us, to be one with the universe. Even the Christian faith was founded by a man who taught that we should be one with God. Seeking harmony. Bringing the world into balance.

And in this circle, such balance and harmony exists. And where balance and harmony exist, so does peace.

This is a very good day.

Good afternoon, ptsum, and all. I'm new to this thread, have posted only a few times in the Religion forum but am not new to religious exploration.

I was reared in a fairly fundamentalist family accompanied by some fear of that fundamentalist God, leaving me somewhat socially inept. In my early twenties I had an operation, after which I found myself questioning those beliefs that had been instilled in me.

After a couple of years of counseling I was able to realize I could search and learn and develope my own belief system. That realization was half the journey to finding my relationship with God, other gods, religions and belief systems and those who participate with them as well as those who oppose any religion or belief system.

Among my preferred courses in college were Physics (Astronomy) and Logic (Philosophy). One of my best learning guides was a set of books, 'Life and Teaching of the Masters of the Far East' (or as I say, Far Out). These three references along with some basic understanding of other belief systems form a basis for my beliefs.

Those beliefs, while not participating in any religion allows me to accept the beliefs of most any religious postulates as long as no harm is done and results in a balanced energy field.

I am glad to have found this thread and look forward to hearing more of the religious tenets of others.

I am thrilled by the new energy that is coming into the circle....and I really do come here...as a meditation......I take the time to breathe.............to pray............to slow the world down and be present in the moment.....even and especially is the moment is quiet and open and free.
