Your Ideas & Beliefs may be Hurting You

[LuiBliss]

I started a thread earlier for this reason titled Law of Attraction, which is an ideology revolving around "Your ideas and beliefs shape your reality".

Two movies that I recommend for delving into this mindset are
1) A movie many of us have seen yet criticize: "The Secret"

2) A great movie that is about Quantum Physics etc. called "What the bleep do we know"

In both these movies you are rest assured that you are in control of your destiny and are not subjected to whimsical ideologies that have control over you and the situations that arise.

They are, infact, very empowering.

This is, contradictory, to the worlds largest religions for example. Islam, Christianity and Judaism, which together take up most of the worlds population.

We are, to think about the fact, that most of the people are infact usually wrong. This is why approximately 80% of the worlds wealth is held by only 3%.

Only a small number of people in the world is illuminated to the real facts of how reality really works.

And with globalization and the internet, you have the accessibility to find this out on your own and become an empowered, conscious and illuminated human being.

People are placing their beliefs in religions not even knowing that they are believing and fighting for that cause.

Take for example Islam, it is mentioned in the Quran (the Holy book of that religion) that it is their duty to kill all non-believers. So, if every muslim was a practicing one, they would be a very dangerous people and mass massacres would still be a reality on the streets. Hence the existence of ISIS.

However, please be aware that Islam is not the only religion that promotes violence, and not only Islamic followers are mostly blind to their faith but Christianity as well, as will be shown in this very interesting and somewhat comical video from these youtubers:-



And A for Judaism, they are terrorizing a whole nation in the name of religion.

But thats not the point. The point is, you can choose what to believe and not be dictated by this whole dogmatism and psychotic gods.

I urge yo to take control of your life, be conscious of your own thoughts, how you think how you act.

What are your goals in life. And if you are confused about the afterlife and are stuck now because of a lack of religion, just study Buddhism as an example which has a very different perspective which will make you grow as an individual and take even more control over your life and 'life after death'.. whatever that means.

I hope this post has been a little enlightening, if it has then the purpose has been served.

Let me know your thoughts

I don't think this is quite the case, there is a significant portion of the population that is smart enough to know whats up, yet they don't hold any wealth or power, in fact...many of those in power actually believe in religion and thats a main reason they are able to appeal to the mindless masses.

while there are those that hold wealth and are smart about reality, they tend to keep their mouth shut about it since the backlash against them would be bad should they go against religion

I think the 3 percent are .1 percent awake to reality...and the other 2.9 percent are just heirs of money and power that are clueless


maybe i'm making a different point than u were but its a topic i often think about. people can become extremely powerful and rich based on nothing other than chance and conformity,

Hello LucidSDreamr.. I like your name.. Are we in the same lucid dream right now? or is this reality?

Yes, you are a hundred percent right... Most if not all of the great sages and saints etc. had little or nothing to do with money.

Like you said, many of those in power are into religion and to continue on your point, they use it to have more power over the people and to control them even more. (with their financial power over churches, media etc.)

Yeah and ofcourse, even less of a percentage is really awake to reality when we look at the fact that they are just heirs of people who may or may not have been illuminated or enlightened.

Thank you very much for your input and looking forward to hearing more of your thoughts and ideas on the subject

I think you're way off op. Encouraging people to delve into "The Secret" while denouncing other people's religions doesn't make anything you say seem very credible nor does just pulling statistics out of your ass. Taking control of your life is fine, Buddhism is fine, but not everyone is going to find the same religious or spiritual path. That doesn't mean they aren't anymore entitled to their beliefs than anyone else. And as for "The Secret", if what you say was true that most of the wealth in the world is held by 3% well then I guess the rest of the people just didn't envision themselves becoming millionaires hard enough. 8)

2) A great movie that is about Quantum Physics etc. called "What the bleep do we know"

some religious nutjob family members made me watch that cultish bullshit.

The movie sucks.

I'm not encouraging people to do anything.
--> If your ideas and beliefs are serving you thats fine. You may enjoy the fact that you live your life according to what you believe certain God wants you to do, and thus go to eternal heaven or whatever... If that works out for you.. then by all means do your thing.
--> Just be cool and don't terrorize me.

About pulling statistics out of my ass...

According to The New York Times, the "richest 1 percent in the United States now own more wealth than the bottom 90 percent".

A simple google search will show you many similar statistics

This is a well-known fact in my circle so I just thought I am writing to a more educated crowd, but no worries, I'll tone it down from now on.

Taking control of your life is not 'fine' it is TERRIFIC and EVERYONE should be doing it.. If you are not in control of your life who is?

Nobody said anything about the same spiritual or religious path.. are you putting words in my mouth?


Yeah, appreciating your sense of humour with the last point.. I believe people don't have the right idea about money. Most people have the take-take-take mentality.. Where as money is mostly made by these individuals that hold a large sum of wealth because they gave so much value to humanity. Look at Bill Gates for example.. A computer in nearly every household world wide.. look at the impact he had on the world.

And ofcourse wrong ideas about money.. My dad for example told me the other day as a side subject that those people that have all this wealth must have done something bad in order to get it, or hurt some people or something.
So these kinds of ideas and beliefs do not conduct the perfect vaccume to wealth attraction. Its not healthy.

You're oversimplifying things. There's a lot more that goes into people's religion of choice than merely doing what god wants you to do. A lot use it as sort of a code of ethics and of course there's a cultural aspect as well depending on what religion we're talking about.

Just be cool and don't terrorize me.

There's plenty of religious people that won't terrorize you. For example in the case of Islam you only hear about the extremists. You don't hear about all of the muslims living peacefully around the world.

No. Your first post makes it pretty clear that you think that there's only one way of being "illuminated" and that other people's religions are inferior.

You shouldn't take the "Secret" thing as a joke because it basically says that you can acquire or achieve anything if you believe in it and think about it hard enough. It also says that bad things happen because people are thinking negative thoughts. Try telling a terminal cancer victim that, or people dying in from hunger in a 3rd world country. I'm sure they'll appreciate it.

And ofcourse wrong ideas about money.. My dad for example told me the other day as a side subject that those people that have all this wealth must have done something bad in order to get it, or hurt some people or something.
So these kinds of ideas and beliefs do not conduct the perfect vaccume to wealth attraction. Its not healthy.

I think your dad is right. Bill Gates is one example and sure there are righteous rich people, but there's also plenty that got rich by doing anything they had to including stepping on people's toes. Look at Donald Trump for example.

Code of Ethics= Based on what God wants you to do.

Undeniably, religion, I believe, is more so cultural. Or at least, I agree with you, to say the least, that the cultural aspect of it is huge.

There's plenty of religious people that won't terrorize you. For example in the case of Islam you only hear about the extremists. You don't hear about all of the muslims living peacefully around the world.

Well, just reading the holy books makes me scared because the books claim that one should terrorize, kill, and slaughter 'non-believers' so how can i ever trust a community that could, at one point backlash and act on their 'beliefs'.

Of course, there are also issues wit regarding the treatment of women etc.

We can thank Goodness that the Law has become more powerful than todays religions, but if we were to let people act out on their 'beliefs' or what they place so much faith in, be it blind or not, we would be living in a very bloody world..

Eh.. come to think of it.. looking back at history.. we actually have been living a very bloody life.. and throughout a majority.. in the name of 'religion' and these religions claim to be bringing 'peace'. Blasphemy? I think so.

If the whole 1% thing is even true for the U.S. that doesn't mean that 80% of the worlds wealth is held by only 3%.

Well, the statistics i'm giving you are real, one of them is quoted for the U.S. and you can tell by the numbers that a HUGE amount of the wealth is held by a SMALL amount of people. Regardless about if i didn't get the exact number up to a decimal point.. the point is clear. Don't get too hung up on this just hope the msg is clear. I can't find the exact source of the 80% to 3% however, I found many articles that the richest 60-80 INDIVIDUALS own HALF of the worlds wealth.. I think thats even more staggering, no?

https://www.theguardian.com/busines...naires-wealthy-half-world-population-combined

I think that there's plenty of well educated people in this section. Get off your high horse ffs. 8(

No. Your first post makes it pretty clear that you think that there's only one way of being "illuminated" and that other people's religions are inferior.

Yes, your religion is inferior, if your religion serves a very psychotic God.
A God that will put his 'children' to damnation of torture in eternal FIRE if you do not follow in his orders.. pff.. damn thats fucked up. Honestly.

I'm sure they'll appreciate it.

WoW, take "The Secret" as a joke. Not a chance. The secret not only gave me my health back, but also my life back. It is far from being a joke. I can attest to it first hand. In all cases, the scenarios you mentioned are very complex and are far beyond the scope of this thread. A whole book can be written about that, and maybe I will take on that challenge.. since nobody has (as far as I know).

I think your dad is right. Bill Gates is one example and sure there are righteous rich people, but there's also plenty that got rich by doing anything they had to including stepping on people's toes. Look at Donald Trump for example.

1st of all, what the hell is your point? I'm sure there are a lot more unrighteous, actually STATISTICALLY poor people are more unrighteous than rich people. I read it somewhere and I'm not going to look for it now cuz whatever, just use your head. Who are most of the people that are doing the shootings, the people that steal etc. its all poor people, not rich people.. So i'd be more self-conscious in front of a poor person than a rich person.
And, you are talking shit about Trump? Trump is the U.S. president, and you are still talking shit about him. He has accomplished his goals and has done what he wants to do for the world and has offered it value, to the people that value him. Just because you don't value him does not mean he is a bad person. I hope this doesnt turn into some kind of political argument all over again.. out of all people, you had to use Trump as an example.. Someone I don't mind, at least for his business mind.

May You Think Outside The Box

You claim that these movies are 'cultish' and have no place within science and academia. So, would I also find you on the forums bashing Catholicism, Christianity, Islam and Judaism?

Aren't the people that attend Churches, Mosques and Synagogues a part of a 'cult' as well. Beleiving things that make absolutely no logical sense, if you REALLY think about it?!

At-least these movies that I am mentioning are of-todays world and up-to-date with knowledge that we have come to understand and been able to prove. Our thoughts shape things for example. This is a sound conclusion that can be proved under a microscope.

There is no cult, we are not inviting you to do certain rituals, to convert or dress a certain way. We are just sending you love. Empowering you to live a conscious life, and hopefully spread more love around you and will thus live a better more peaceful world.

If that is considered being occult or being in a cult.. Then oh god damn it.. sign me up %)

Be Good,

 

[protovack]

You do realize that in christianity, God gives man free will, as a gift, that he knows will bring us pain, but gives it anyway so we can have the experience of making choices? The idea that your intentions can affect the world, is entirely consistent with this.

 

[Yourbaker]

Does it not appear to just be about acquiring wealth? That just doesn't seem like anything to me. What would happen when 10% of the population have all visualized themselves with wealth instead of 3%? Where do we get the extra wealth from to raise another 7% of society to this height? Do we spread out the 3%? I think they might not go along with sharing since they have already thought it's all theirs. Do we take even more from the 90% so we can have more rich people? Wealth in our world is finite and determined by money, adding more money just puts extra zeros on the end of everything but does nothing for society.

I agree that if you focus on a better life you will find it because your mind will be engaged on getting there all day. Just don't get lost on money it's the tool we have now to control the poor with. Monetary wealth is good for having all your needs met, living well beyond our needs while others starve and blaming them because they must be thinking they are poor just smacks of religion gone sour.

You need to realize that some people are never going to even want money or things that require money to maintain them. It is easy to sell the idea of success but in reality as long as we keep using money the more successful people we have the harder it becomes for the ones who don't want wealth. We just want to eat and have a home, not run the world. The greater the competition for the scraps from the wealthy the more we fail as humans.

So instead of just holding a vision of yourself being wealthy hold a vision of the world working together. I'll give you a hint, first forget money.

 

[nuttynutskin]

Code of Ethics= Based on what God wants you to do.

My point was it's not just about getting into heaven. Using Islam as an example again, there's practices that are meant to benefit the family, society, the person, hell even diet and etiquette. It's meant to give structure. So your view of it just as a way to get into heaven is indeed simplistic and leaving out a great deal.

Well, just reading the holy books makes me scared because the books claim that one should terrorize, kill, and slaughter 'non-believers' so how can i ever trust a community that could, at one point backlash and act on their 'beliefs'.

Innocent until proven guilty? I'll wager that most people in the modern world don't take religious text word for word or necessarily literally.

We can thank Goodness that the Law has become more powerful than todays religions, but if we were to let people act out on their 'beliefs' or what they place so much faith in, be it blind or not, we would be living in a very bloody world..


Eh.. come to think of it.. looking back at history.. we actually have been living a very bloody life.. and throughout a majority.. in the name of 'religion' and these religions claim to be bringing 'peace'. Blasphemy? I think so.

We've been fighting with each other since the cavemen. I think it's just human nature. Whether it's over land, resources, religion, politics I don't think there's really much difference. I think it's just human nature.

Yes, your religion is inferior, if your religion serves a very psychotic God.
A God that will put his 'children' to damnation of torture in eternal FIRE if you do not follow in his orders.. pff.. damn thats fucked up. Honestly.

And you're assuming that all people of a certain religion agree on everything. I think you're sadly mistaken.

WoW, take "The Secret" as a joke. Not a chance. The secret not only gave me my health back, but also my life back. It is far from being a joke. I can attest to it first hand. In all cases, the scenarios you mentioned are very complex and are far beyond the scope of this thread. A whole book can be written about that, and maybe I will take on that challenge.. since nobody has (as far as I know).

Well someone already wrote The Secret so they probably don't need a book about a book. But either way, just answer me the simple question of what did a starving Somalian child do to deserve that fate? I'd wager money that you nor anyone else into The Secret bullshit can give an answer based on reality and not some pseudo-scientific psycho babble.

1st of all, what the hell is your point? I'm sure there are a lot more unrighteous, actually STATISTICALLY poor people are more unrighteous than rich people.

Well I'm confused because I thought you were upset that the rich control so much of the world. And I'm not sure how you would statistically prove whether someone is righteous or not. lulz

Who are most of the people that are doing the shootings, the people that steal etc. its all poor people, not rich people.. So i'd be more self-conscious in front of a poor person than a rich person.

No, rich people never steal or, I don't know start wars?

And, you are talking shit about Trump? Trump is the U.S. president, and you are still talking shit about him. He has accomplished his goals and has done what he wants to do for the world and has offered it value, to the people that value him. Just because you don't value him does not mean he is a bad person. I hope this doesnt turn into some kind of political argument all over again.. out of all people, you had to use Trump as an example.. Someone I don't mind, at least for his business mind.

Just lol... Since he's the president means I can't talk shit about him? He was born into wealth from his father and did anything he could to attain more. Small loan of 1 million dollars ring a bell? And by all means please tell me exactly what value he's added to the world other than putting us at more potentially serious peril.

May You Think Outside The Box

You're not as important as you think you are. And support Trump. I don't think you're very enlightened dude. 8(

So, I apologize to you from beforehand if I say it to you so bluntly. However, looking at this Somalian child is a very shallow way of looking at things. And you are judging (something you are very good at seeing as to how many times you have judged me already.. yes I know).. so you are judging the Somalian child based on the same merit as you find is a life worth living based on Western cultures way of living. Such as materialism etc.

So one way of looking at things is that this Somalian child is actually much, much richer than your and I in some ways than we perceive them to be. Their way of living life so simply may be very enriching etc.

(I have heard this many times and you can see it how rich people commit suicides and have high rates of depression... so money doesn't equal happiness nor does it equal wellness)

In another case, if you were to go and teach them "The Secret" even in their own life. Whatever they could infact perceive in their mind to be achievable, would be. There is nothing stopping them. The question is, how would you bring about to their mind the picture or idea of a Rolls Royce car, for example. So since it cannot be held in their mind as an image or visualization, it is likely much harder for them to achieve it. Not that they would want to anyway.

HOWEVER, Based on THEIR reality, if you go and visit with them for years and find out what they TRULY desire, then I am sure they will be able to achieve it.

As for the fact of why he was born there, you could even ask what is your fault of you being born in your situation? Some people are born rich and some poor. We, in the western world are shallow enough to classify ourselves within these 2 extremes. People in the Far East, for example, in Tibet, view more highly your spiritual merit. That is prized more than material wealth, and people strive for enlightenment instead.

You could be asking, in that case.. why is he born enlightened.. and I'm not?

So, nuttynutskin, you could view it simply or make it over complex, but you don't have to

I hope that I have humbly addressed your questions.

 

[nuttynutskin]

You claim that these movies are 'cultish' and have no place within science and academia. So, would I also find you on the forums bashing Catholicism, Christianity, Islam and Judaism?

I don't think religion has any place in science or academia but I think you can practice these religions but still be aware of science. I don't think that they're mutually exclusive.

Aren't the people that attend Churches, Mosques and Synagogues a part of a 'cult' as well. Beleiving things that make absolutely no logical sense, if you REALLY think about it?!

You could argue that, but people are entitled to their beliefs. If people choose to believe in shit like The Secret that's their right also, but it irks me that it gets passed on as being scientific knowledge.

At-least these movies that I am mentioning are of-todays world and up-to-date with knowledge that we have come to understand and been able to prove. Our thoughts shape things for example. This is a sound conclusion that can be proved under a microscope.

Lol... Please by all means show me the scientific proof behind the movies you posted. They're nothing more than pseudoscience that have been blasted by the scientific community.

There is no cult, we are not inviting you to do certain rituals, to convert or dress a certain way. We are just sending you love. Empowering you to live a conscious life, and hopefully spread more love around you and will thus live a better more peaceful world.

Using your thoughts to shape the future certainly sounds like a ritual to me.

So one way of looking at things is that this Somalian child is actually much, much richer than your and I in some ways than we perceive them to be. Their way of living life so simply may be very enriching etc.

I'm sure dying starving in the desert is a really rich way to live.

(I have heard this many times and you can see it how rich people commit suicides and have high rates of depression... so money doesn't equal happiness nor does it equal wellness)

I'd like to see the evidence that the rates of depression and suicide are higher in rich people than anyone else.

In another case, if you were to go and teach them "The Secret" even in their own life. Whatever they could infact perceive in their mind to be achievable, would be. There is nothing stopping them.

HOWEVER, Based on THEIR reality, if you go and visit with them for years and find out what they TRULY desire, then I am sure they will be able to achieve it.

Well I think it's safe to say they probably desire not starving to death yet do anyways. I'm sure someone in a war torn country desires not being shot or bombed to death yet it still happens.

As for the fact of why he was born there, you could even ask what is your fault of you being born in your situation? Some people are born rich and some poor. We, in the western world are shallow enough to classify ourselves within these 2 extremes. People in the Far East, for example, in Tibet, view more highly your spiritual merit. That is prized more than material wealth, and people strive for enlightenment instead.

According to The Secret poor people should be able to make lots of money if they just envision it hard enough tho. You're dodging the question.

You could be asking, in that case.. why is he born enlightened.. and I'm not?

Lol wut? Who's born enlightened?

I hope that I have humbly addressed your questions.

No. You don't make any sense, not that I expected you to.

 

[LuiBliss]

In all cases, I wish I could say that it was fun discussing with you, or more like arguing. And to me at least, it seems that this is going nowhere. The energy is draining and I'm not having any enjoyment nor am I becoming any more enlightened because of this. It is meek and purposeless.

No. You don't make any sense, not that I expected you to.

You, ofcourse are not helping, especially wit the fact that you are not coming with an open mind nor heart wich can be seen by your statement, absolutely no faith.

You might not see me here anymore, but you will definitely find me on the internet spreading my message to those who want to hear it.

Wishing you all the best, and may you find that witch you are seeking.

Best,

Lui Bliss

 

[nuttynutskin]

Sorry but anyone can make a bunch of ridiculous claims and not back them up. You've yet to give any solid scientific evidence behind these theories. If everything you say can be proven so easily why not do it?

 

[LuiBliss]

Innocent until proven guilty? I'll wager that most people in the modern world don't take religious text word for word or necessarily literally.

I think the likes of 'ISIS' is taking the book 'literally' and what kind of book is it if not taken literally. It is, at the end of the day "the word of God" and I should take it at any level that fits my mind.

We've been fighting with each other since the cavemen. I think it's just human nature. Whether it's over land, resources, religion, politics I don't think there's really much difference. I think it's just human nature.

Well, I think we should at least become more enlightened as a human race... Thus, those of us who are more enlightened have a duty to educate others to let go of all those things that hold us back and keep us in the cafe man days... or at least in the times that those Religions were created that are keeping us at war with each other.

And you're assuming that all people of a certain religion agree on everything. I think you're sadly mistaken.

I haven't assumed anything. I'm just pointing out the fact that the God you are serving (within those religions) is in fact a very psychotic God!

Well someone already wrote The Secret so they probably don't need a book about a book. But either way, just answer me the simple question of what did a starving Somalian child do to deserve that fate? I'd wager money that you nor anyone else into The Secret bullshit can give an answer based on reality and not some pseudo-scientific psycho babble.

Hmm.. so what if I write a book about a book, it has been done countless times. And the Secret is a book a bout a concept, or something, who knows. So I am in fact contemplating writing more about the concept and addressing questions that they have not... such as ones you are posing in this thread.

Well I'm confused because I thought you were upset that the rich control so much of the world. And I'm not sure how you would statistically prove whether someone is righteous or not. lulz

Again, I'm not upset a bout anything. Just pointing out the fact. If people don't realize what they want and don't go and get it it's not my fault. The 'clear' path of attaining that which you desire is there and anyone can do it to a certain extent.

No, rich people never steal or, I don't know start wars?

-->You are much more likely to do a crime if you are poor. (hence, not as 'righteous' in that sense.

Also, look at the top 1000 richest people in America (or the world). Which of them started a war?
Governments start wars not individuals.

Just lol... Since he's the president means I can't talk shit about him? He was born into wealth from his father and did anything he could to attain more. Small loan of 1 million dollars ring a bell? And by all means please tell me exactly what value he's added to the world other than putting us at more potentially serious peril.

So he had a $1 million to start of his businesses. He turned them into billions. Not sure about exactly what businesses he is in but he had hotels. So the value he added was provide accommodation to (most likely) other business men travelling. You are also negatively judging him for his perceived bad way of being president. We are not talking about him being a president, we were originally talking about money. And he made money. And if it was up to me, I would love to meet him (many times more so than I would like to meet hilary) to at least ick his brain in how business works etc. I will have lotss to learn especially since i m deeply interested in business. Heck, it's even what I studied in University.

You're not as important as you think you are. And support Trump. I don't think you're very enlightened dude. 8(

I am the most important person, in my world, at least. Who are you to say otherwise. I'm also enlightened... whether you think so or not

Lol... Please by all means show me the scientific proof behind the movies you posted. They're nothing more than pseudoscience that have been blasted by the scientific community.

First of all, Quantum Physics is a science.. and it is one that will blow your mind away whether the movie portrays it that accurately or not based on the 'scientific community'.

Crazy shit like water changing as a result of what you 'tell it' and your emotions etc. how it effects its crystallization. Check this website out if you don't remember it from the movie:-

Using your thoughts to shape the future certainly sounds like a ritual to me.

This ritual is practiced by you on a daily basis. From the time you think to yourself I want a glass of water --> you find yourself driking a class of water (started off as a thought, then literally changed your reality.. one second u were watching tv, next one you are in the kitchen chugging some water) to wanting to go grocery shopping... getting into your car and shopping etc. This is done automatically by you.

And what movies like 'The Secret' are trying to get you to do is to 'Think Bigger'... If you can do small things with your thoughts, then what makes you think that you cannot accomplish more grandiose things with deeper thoughts and intentions and actions etc.
