Re: A Different Cosmology

"Yep, we're all talking about the same stuff...just using different words to say it."
Yes, or viewing it from diferent perspectives.

"The mystics of all spiritual traditions know this, and physics is coming very close to saying the same thing."
Yes again. It always amazes me how people think all the religions are different. The only part that is different is what man has added the truth. And Science is coming to the same point from yet another view point, like you said. Some day it will all come together, and I think and hope perhaps in our life time. This will be the true revelation.

"All this bantering about it began this way or that way is merely semantics and a mental exercise of the conceptual mind which will not lead to the truth. Whether you call it God or Allah or the Light or primal energy or Buddha nature or the Dao or empty space...they are all just names; the map."
Yep. Each religion is centered on different characteristics of God or the Tao. Each is incomplete on it's own. Yet proves there are many ways to get there.

This quote from the Tao describes Jesus to the tee:

The ancient Masters were profound and subtle.
Their wisdom was unfathomable.
There is no way to describe it;
all we can describe is their appearance.

They were careful
as someone crossing an iced-over stream.
Alert as a warrior in enemy territory.
Courteous as a guest.
Fluid as melting ice.
Shapable as a block of wood.
Receptive as a valley.
Clear as a glass of water.


Most people can't even see the reality behind even everyday things:

We shape clay into a pot,
but it is the emptiness inside
that holds whatever we want.

We hammer wood for a house,
but it is the inner space
that makes it livable.

Nice talking to you 36! There's another person like you sitting back and watching the rest of us run in circles.

One of my favorite quotes from the Tao:
Other people have what they need;
I alone possess nothing.
I alone drift about,
like someone without a home.
I am like an idiot, my mind is so empty.
