Yea your right Xan but some people cannot understand anything that isn't tangible or reduced to a concept.

What are your thoughts?
Is there a necessary step that we all need to take in order to let go of the Father Figure God and ultimately become our own God and masters of our own destiny?
Wow! A big step to take indeed if that is true. Makes me nervous just thinking about it.

I think the biggest step that we all need to take is to let go of labels, such as "God" and to truly find what "God" means. |

Yea I like that innerlight, and we don't even need to find what God means, we only need to allow God to be, "be still and know that you are God".

The end of being is to find out God.

Job 11:7-8
Can you fathom the mysteries of God?
Can you probe the limits of the Almighty?
They are higher than the heavens--what can you do?
They are deeper than the depths of the grave--what can you know?"

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru.

Well that's a good idea. Honza... Letting go of *Believing* altogether since belief is just an idea.... and going for experiencing and directly knowing your own divine nature within yourself.
