Exploring other spiritualities

[mountaingal]

Before i went to Thailand, was flirting with the idea of Buddhism. Mi drop offa dat now, and looking into aspects of Hinduism. Well, what I mean is, I'm reading Deepak Chopra. Seven Laws of Spiritual Success. Just read #3 today - the Law of Karma.

Am liking the non-dogmatic approach, and will keep reading and applying to my life as best i can.

Anyone else exploring alternate spiritualities?

Good morals is all we need in life and you don't need religion to teach you that

Great topic MG. I have been incorporating other spiritual practices in my own Christian faith such as deep meditation, centering prayer, and deep breathing. I am also exploring ancient Christian practices such as lectio divinia and also reading ancient Christian texts that never made it into the popular Bible. I am also exploring the poetry of Rumi, the 13th Century Persian (and Islamic) mystic.

This speaks to me...

Out beyond ideas of wrong doing and right doing,
there is a field. I'll meet you there.
When the soul lies down in that grass,
the world is too full to talk about.
Ideas, language, even the phrase each other
doesn't make any sense.
