SPIRITUALITY, GOD & LOVE
Can a person love without having a “GOD,” or “higher power,” or is complete detachment from a spiritual centering a cause of the inability to feel, to love honestly, profoundly, and purely?
Does enlightenment help a person to achieve a peaceful state of mind, does lack of a higher-power cause emptiness, and a total and complete disconnection to the emotional core and, therefore, part of us which ‘loves,' nourishes, cares for...?
Can a person experience true, pure love, or belief in anything without faith in something bigger? Without faith in an after-life or heaven, or something more powerful and pertinent than this human life | existence holds? Is it necessary to be spiritual to survive emotionally, which indirectly leads to mental (than physical) health and survival, as well?
Without a sense of spirituality, is one capable of survival? Does a person wither away emotionally if he | she chooses not to believe in a higher-power, to have faith and / or believe in being spiritually connected?
I don't believe that. It's only a question.
GOD
If I choose my path, am I my own GOD? Is each individual his or her personal GOD? If I create every action, am I, therefore, determining my own fate? If I am creating my own fate | destiny, then wouldn't that make me my personal GOD? And, if I am not determining my own future, and my outcome has been predetermined for me, wouldn't that defeat the purpose of life | living? If I actually had | have no real control throughout my life, why would I even continue?
If somebody's fate has been predetermined for them, and he or she ends up, say, a serial killer, if the course of their life was already decided for them ("fate"), then how could that person be condemned for their actions?
GOD supposedly created all of us for a "reason," a "purpose," so if we follow that chosen path, by the laws of nature | fate, how can anybody possibly be condemned for anything? Wouldn't they only be carrying through the plan of action for their predetermined future anyway?
If somebody shoots me, and I die, that is part of my fate, correct? And, their future and mine have been intertwined, then how can they be condemned? If one action, one thing changes, doesn't everything?
