I want to be and live at one with god

[Johnthelegoman]

Any ideas how to get started?

[Korpo]

Find a meditation practice you would feel comfortable with and do it for a few minutes each day. It helps.

I would start with building a shrine, make an altar and place Shiva so I can face him while praying.

I would start with, from what religious tradition do you come from, and are you willing to read at least one book to get you started?

I did also go through the religion, and it is very important to understand that religions do box in. As Jesus and all religions profets or God´s are the same force or element or energy. Jesus was a human who did have as I believe the same experience as I have....to understand the difference between duality and infinity....all religions God´s stand on the dividerline what borders to infinity...and therefore are half truth...but it is a way to go through the religion to get this experience to dare to go through the religions roof so to speak to get the experience of infinity.....Religions box in and diminishes us...but it is a good way to start to get the ego in line and understand what respect is and how good life rules are......but then it is time to go through the religions roof to the infinity experience....and I would like the whole world to understand that religion is a good way when it is understood in right way...but it is only a half truth.....

To love LIFE is to love GOD. ...Body is the tempel of GOD and should be taken good care because it enlodges us and gives us the opportunity to get knowledge about our core essence

And i feel like all religions gods are kind of about the true god just different versions of him or her or it.

Ive read and a lot of people are telling me to chant my god of births name or focus on that religion. Is that just to get into the idea of religion to find the true god through that? Chaning jesus feels strange would chantjng the word god havethe same effect

Then I recommend you start by reading Discover the Power Within You by Eric Butterworth. It's based on Christianity but offers a more empowered metaphysical perspective, and I suggest you meditate as you read it. Once you've done this, I'll give you another step to do, if you wish.

[Johnthelegoman]

Okay what do you mean meditate as i read it

[CFTraveler]

Pick some style of meditation that you like. When you're reading, if you come to a point of insight or revelation (or something that challenges your understanding of the universe) take it into meditation and use it as a means of investigation. Use meditation to either 'get it' or 'reject it', depending on what it is.
