Let me briefly talk about the background of this book. It has three volumes, written by neil Donald walsh of the United States. He used to be a newspaper reporter, magazine editor, radio program director, talk show host, etc. He has several children and has been divorced several times. But an accident made him lose everything and live in the wind. Faced with the misfortune of life, he began to write letters complaining about God. But when he began to write down why he was so miserable, a miracle happened, and his hand began to write down the answer automatically ... so his dialogue with God began.
The first time I came into contact with God was when I was a sophomore, and I accidentally borrowed the first book from the library to read it. This part mainly talks about practical problems encountered in life, such as money and interpersonal relationships. I was shocked when I saw it and made a lot of notes. Too many viewpoints have subverted and surpassed my cognition at that time. Maybe it's because of too much transcendence, many people don't understand it very well, and there are some doubts, and then they gradually forget it.
Until some time ago, I continued to watch the second film, which mainly talked about world and social issues, such as poverty, war, fairness, sex and so on. , which constantly interspersed with some spiritual content. Perhaps I have read many spiritual books before and have a deep understanding of them, so this one gives me a familiar feeling-in fact, it is a detailed version of the current power.
Later, I went on to watch the third film, which was more extensive and talked about the universe, such as reincarnation, souls, aliens and so on. , and describes the highly evolved biological society. This movie once again gave me a great shock. However, this time is different from reading the first book a few years ago. At that time, everything was brand new to me. This time, more is to let me have a deeper understanding of many issues, deepen understanding, and connect scattered knowledge in series. It looks very exciting.
Of course, some people may feel that they have benefited a lot, and some people can't stand it without reading half of it, feeling full of nonsense and idealism. Everyone's situation is different, and the receiving frequency is slightly different. Therefore, the content shared below only represents personal views. As for whether he is really talking to God, it is unknown, and this is not the focus of attention. For me, there are indeed many words in it that reshape my world outlook, world outlook and outlook on life. This article first talks about the enlightenment of sex, love and marriage.
This should be a hot topic and a sensitive issue. I've been thinking a lot. I am glad to find more enlightenment in this book.
It has subverted the understanding of many people. The God here directly said that there is nothing wrong with sex and that there is no problem with love at all.
The reason why we deny it and think it is dirty is entirely because of external teaching and influence (not just sex, people always deny many things), but where there is prohibition, there will be distortion and even resistance. People create sexual shame, sexual repression and sexual embarrassment, which also leads to sexual taboos, sexual barriers and even sexual violence.
It is natural that sex is a biological mechanism built into our bodies by the creator, and there is no need to be ashamed of it at all-even on the contrary, only by acknowledging these so-called low-level biological instincts can we make a greater leap. Otherwise it will only lead to ridiculous ignorance and blindness.
However, when this primitive creature is recognized, how does it relate to divinity?
My previous guess was that biology and divinity are not two poles, but actually one pole. Here, I am surprised to find that this guess is right!
Although God encourages us to enjoy the pleasure of sex boldly, it is still a little different from indulging in debauchery.
Here he mentioned chakras. Anyone who has been exposed to meditation has probably heard of this concept.
It is said that the chakra is the energy center in the human body and is located on the spinal cord. Our body has seven main chakras, from bottom to top, they are: submarine chakra, abdominal chakra, umbilical chakra, heart chakra, throat chakra, eyebrow chakra and top chakra.
There is no unholy energy in it. But most people's sex only uses some low-level energy, not all energy to trigger. What this god advocates is sex that is open to each other at the same time based on seven kinds of energy. This is comprehensive, in order to achieve the highest level of experience.
It's not just sex. No matter what you do, only by fully opening your life energy will you enter the advanced realm, the realm of sexual intercourse between God and animals.
Because of this, when the author asked him if he advocated the combination of sex, he said:
Yes, sex and love can be separated, no problem. We can indulge, just as we can wolf down our meals. But if you have sex with love, you may touch the divinity-not just sex, but everything. Love promotes the integration of subject and object.
Throughout the ages, many religions and morals advocated abstinence, and many masters really stopped touching sex. So this gives people a feeling that sex is filthy and must be banned. As mentioned above, sex can only be surpassed if it is recognized. But what about the masters? The author also asked this question.
"Although it's delicious, you've had enough" hit the nail on the head. Yes, the best way to treat desire is not to prohibit it, but to transcend it. People in a high realm are definitely not forbidden from desire, but have no desire at all. The obsession with sex is indeed a compulsive behavior and should be abandoned. But blindly abstinence, isn't it another kind of compulsion? To surpass it, it depends not on prohibition, but on spiritual evolution.
After talking about love and sex, marriage is naturally an unavoidable topic.
For marriage, some people think that it is the sublimation of love, others think that it is an obligation that has to be fulfilled, which has nothing to do with whether they are willing or not. It is more to meet the requirements of society and parents, and it is an answer sheet for parents. In a relatively free modern society, many people begin to doubt the necessity of marriage and even fear it. I am no exception.
I read Fei Xiaotong's "Birth System" before, which said that marriage is actually just an artificial agreement and a cultural means to establish dual parenting for children. This system is not guaranteed by biology and nature. The marriage system is also conducive to social stability. So advocate.
It seems that marriage is really just an artificial system. Love is biological nature, but marriage is not. So marriage is dispensable? Or will this system not meet the needs of social development and should be abolished? ……
I'm glad to see God's point of view here-as expected, he will neither fully affirm nor completely deny it. Truth always transcends duality.
First of all, he pointed out the shortcomings of most marriages: just out of fear, out of inner fear, just to seek some kind of commitment and guarantee, and to gain a sense of security by binding each other.
In this way, it makes sense that marriage is the grave of love. Because we put the responsibility of meeting our internal or external needs on each other. It is this that leads to so many unfortunate marriages and obliterates people's good feelings for marriage.
Of course, God is by no means denying marriage: we must first understand what kind of person we want to be. If marriage helps us to become that person and express our true identity, it is worth encouraging. Similarly, the answer to the question whether monogamy needs to be converted into open marriage is the same.
So, the answer is not in God, but in your own heart.
But at the same time, he also mentioned a phenomenon: few spiritual masters have been married since ancient times.
At first glance, I felt a little surprised and suddenly realized. Come to think of it, isn't this what Sagulu said before, "Why can you love the whole world, but only one person?"
Love should be infinite, and we are one with everything. Limiting love to a man and a woman is a bit limited. So when the spirit evolves to a certain extent, it will go beyond this limit.
Of course, for most mortals, a relationship is a good training ground, whether married or not. And if we have to get married, we can also make positive adjustments to make the marriage system conducive to our growth and become a perfect person.
So this book also spent a few pages in the margin to list an improved wedding vows, some of which are extracted as follows.
The writing is really wonderful, in fact, it describes a true love, which helps their spiritual progress and experience the love of unity.
Marriage is not to ask or ask the other party to make a promise against nature, nor to ask for a sense of security, but to give. It's about growth and independence, because everyone's soul is complete, and we never lack anything. I believe that marriage on this basis, harmony, tolerance, understanding, happiness, happiness and even being single, are all natural things. These should not be the requirements for each other in the marriage vows, but should be the result of natural occurrence.
Having said that, it can actually be summarized as: sexual openness or conservatism, marriage or unmarried, polygamy or monogamy are not the focus of the problem. The focus is always: Have we developed in an all-round way? Does our choice help to create, express and realize our true identity? If so, it's worth doing.
God will not judge for us. Only man has made the commandments in the name of God.
Thanks for reading!
