ANN Counselor, Lesbian & Happy I have to bring your attention back to the lesson. This lesson is about understanding and acceptance of all, regardless of religious beliefs. It is about keeping positive energy flowing, not being preachy, because preaching in and of itself is an assumption of "superiority." Now, let's go back to the lesson. Are we superior to any other? (Check #4) No One is Superior to Another: (Humans are not masters of nature, nor the animals and plants. They are our companions, and co-inhabitants of this planet. We are not superior to them, nor do we own them. We should treat them all with respect.) #1 We are all related, (treat the rest of the whole as if it is part of us, with respect and love.) Your quote: "The greatest peace of my spirit came when I gave up 'churchism' and kept and grew in my faith in Yahweh and Yashuah on my own, not having it poured over me by zesty people. I still hate it when someone does that to me. " In this lesson, we have learned or should be learning that "hate" or prejudging people for their own beliefs, is not treating one with respect and love. Again, we are all related and must treat the rest of "the whole" as if they are a part of us. Positive energy is passing light to another, negative brings darkness and ill-health. # 2.The Energy Flow: (How we feel affects our energy levels; negativity drains energy, positivity creates energy.) Relating many negative things in your posts, Ann, does go against these principles. If you don't accept these rules as written, which are the true spiritual beliefs to follow and to share with all of parts of the whole with the same love and respect, then you cannot walk the red road, for this is what it is all about. I hope you understand what I'm trying to say, here. There are some among us who may be offended by the putting down of a certain church or religion or may not want to hear anything about any particular religion whether it's stated in negative way or a derogatory way, or as the one and only way to be accepted. Thus, preaching in this way is a religious belief in and of itself. This is a Native American spiritual road and the pure light of the way to follow that is most beneficial to all living things because it is about love, respect, sharing, healing and including all, because we are all related. I hope this helps, Ann. ~Wolf Spirit Mother |
