Yin and Yang or Around the World...

Yin and Yang or Around the World and my Experience of the Divine

Yin and yang, or good and evil, or Heaven and Hell, or God and the Devil, or to get to the point, when we share our cultures around a world we get a world of ideas! This caused me to see instead of different faiths, religion, instead of gods, worship, instead of condemned and blessed, people trying to make sense of good, evil and the concept of divine justice.

In my interpretation of this global "worship soup" I have been sipping from, we as humanity seek a hero, god, to save us from ourselves, each other, and of course the ultimate villain - the devil, and to provide a place worthy of worship, to live happily ever after in with all the rest existing that did not go to being "evil" because of the hard luck/knocks they got from the "world" and "worldly people" or "worldliness" in general. Of course you can disagree as this is my view.

In my view of the landscape of this worship soup there is the Fair Haven of the Gods' creating where those who can believe and receive it dwell in the bliss of family love enjoying drams coming true as long as they can endure such a wonderful life. Then there's the "Carnal-copia" or place where the others go until their destruction from their excessive vices or other foul acts reward. They live in sins of the flesh, their enjoying each other not giving a dam about anyone else. They have no regrets, and no remorse, and live for the enjoyment of whatever they find to enjoy themselves with. A pleasant overdose to some while to others "the way to go"...

Of course Fair Haven is like the Federation in Star Trek (you can Google it if not familiar with it)  they do not interfere, or as it can be called, they practice the "butterfly treatment" of those outside Fair Haven of - "no help" as the butterfly will not survive if not left "come out" of it's "cocoon" on its own. They are lovely beings to dream of otherwise, so long as you are not in need of anything to help you. Of course, like Captain Kirk on Star Trek, sometimes they cannot keep from helping. They are after all a "family bunch" of people. 

Now Carnal-copia, unlike Fair Haven, is always willing to help if the price is right and they can justify taking the time to do it to their cohorts. It may not always cost one ones soul, or first born child, but as stereotypical there is always a cost, even if only the guilt of dealing with the "devils". You may not even have to sign a contract in blood. Your word may be good enough.

So Fair Haven is no help and Carnal-copia don't give a damn unless you are talking business. That seems to be my world view through spiritual lenses from my "worship soup" including world myths legends and folklore. Now for your story of "what the world's spiritual experiences add up to".

You can run to the nearest Christian church to get saved from thinking too much, or... Think, dream, imagine! What did God create brains for...
