We incarnate until we achieve transcendence ala Buddha and Jesus. Then we move on to higher planes of reality. Every esoteric occult philosophy outlines this process. The higher self sees this as creation, eternally evolving. Whereas the lower self would see this process as just endlessly tiring.

Endlessly tiring, demotivating, depressing, demoralizing.

Buddhism does not support the eternally evolving idea. There is an end.

Interesting idea of the "No God" as opposed to the "I AM GOD".

I believe there are indeed numerous deities wanting souls to follow them and deify them / worship them. But then such souls are not SELF aware enough to realise WE are ALL GOD.

Why should you follow some or other deity when you know YOU YOURSELF ARE GOD? To me this make no sense...

which when you start to promote it itself becomes a tyranny... sigh...

I jsut spent thirty years of my life wishing for an end to the buddhist nightmare, and all I found in the end is that there isn't going to be one and I was going to have to get over myself. sigh.

Gnostic Atheism is the No Hand Path, otherwise known as pure hedonism. Adherents of this path seek pleasure at all costs and loathe pain. I know a girl who is on this path, from my perspective she is independent and egoistic but from her perspective she is independent and determined.

Jacob, I see you posted this in another forum:

"I am very messed up and uncomfortable with who I am. My head and my heart are not in agreement. My nature and my life's purpose are at odds. Please pray for me, my name is Jacob."

Observation and suggestion: We mess ourselves up with our harsh judgement. Harsh judgment creates psychic turmoil, which creates physical and mental health issues. Your harsh, uber-opinionated post above regarding Gnostic Atheism is an example of what I'm speaking of. It's apparent from your words you have little understanding of this topic, and simply wished to insert your angry opinion on the matter.

Stop doing that. That's how you create psychic turmoil in your life as I said. Ignore that voice inside that would have you lash out at the world, and at things you couldn't possible comprehend given your life experience to this point. Start loving. Start loving life. Look for opportunities to speak and share loving thoughts and observations. All the best bro.

EDIT: Just saw this comment of yours:"I think only the Anti Christ will incarnate with full knowledge of good and evil."

And that. Fundamentalist religious beliefs about Anti Christ and End of Days etc. are toxic, are poisonous to the mind and soul.
