@Miss Hepburn

I have now put it with the comments matching the quotes. I presume this is ok with the quotes in small blocks, and comments under them.

I am guessing that it is to make reading the posts easier to read.

Sorry, I have tried to make a reply to everyone but I have missed some (like yours). Yes, I agree. I think his main mission was to provide an example for others to follow.

On the other hand, I think it does depends on how one perceives the concept of worship. I think what I misunderstood about worship may be that it is done as a level of humility as well. I think many do not worship Christ to separate themselves from him, but to be humble, and show a relinquishment of ego.

I dunno the reason exactly, I just follow what they tell me ---what you just did above was great.
Within the quote box itself - they want tops 3 sentences only....not some looong quote. We can ref back
to the Post if you place the post # if you want to. I have to do it, too.

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

OK, yes it makes sense. I think a great big long quote is laziness in some of us. It is also a bit difficult to read. Thanks for the info.

You gotta believe in that ''father'' first: a creator god from tribes in the Middle East, a belief that expanded because of preachers and rulers taking up the belief. And you gotta believe in creationism as well, and that you need to ''go to the father'' for whatever reason they are giving, which relates to stories about the creation of two people, 'original sin', sins of the ancestors, and ''salvation''.

It's a lot to take in, and I can say I don't take any part of it seriously.
