"God"- John Lennon
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jknynk5vny8
God is a concept,
By which we can measure,
Our pain,
I'll say it again,
God is a concept,
By which we can measure,
Our pain,
I don't believe in magic,
I don't believe in I-ching,
I don't believe in bible,
I don't believe in tarot,
I don't believe in Hitler,
I don't believe in Jesus,
I don't believe in Kennedy,
I don't believe in Buddha,
I don't believe in mantra,
I don't believe in Gita,
I don't believe in yoga,
I don't believe in kings,
I don't believe in Elvis,
I don't believe in Zimmerman,
I don't believe in Beatles,
I just believe in me,
Yoko and me,
And that's reality.
The dream is over,
What can I say?
The dream is over,
Yesterday,
I was dreamweaver,
But now I'm reborn,
I was the walrus,
But now I'm John,
And so dear friends,
You just have to carry on,
The dream is over.

This song really helped me to put my thoughts into prospective. For many years I took everything I was taught as being correct and never questioned it. I just assumed that if the adults in my life said it was corrected then that's that.
Over the years as an adult I started my quest for knowledge and gradually realised that a lot of information surrounding this concept is subjective.
This gave me the confidence to not limit myself by opinions which aren't open to growth and allowed me to think for myself without fear of any subjective issues.
This song was very advanced for its time and I think it's terrific that this subject is more and more so, now then ever before discussed freely without fear of rejection from others for daring to have a different take on things.
I love the way this song is open to interpretation. And can be appreciated differently depending what you get out of it.
Some may hold the view that by getting this song makes you an atheist. Suggesting to me that if you don't believe in it in a certain way, your out. Something I find very amusing and a classic example of why I refuse to be labeled and put into any concrete way of thinking when it comes to my spirituality.
Classic song. Really helps me with my healing and journey of spiritual enlightenment.

I love this song so much because there was a point in my life when I was so desperate to believe in the paranormal, and I read John as speaking sarcastically, even though I knew it wasn't true. But that was just it. I knew that all that supernatural stuff was false.
Then one day I woke up, and realized that all the magic is in life itself. There is nothing beyond the veil.
