Being on a long road home

From East and West, faith sustains....

[i]My eyes being hindered by blind passions,
I cannot perceive the light that grasps me;
Yet the great compassion, without tiring,
Illumines me always[/i]

(Shinran, verse 95 from "Hymns of the Pure Land Masters")


And from Julian of Norwich on the same theme......

[i]If there be anywhere on earth a lover of God who is always kept safe, I know nothing of it, for it was not shown to me. But this was shown: that in falling and rising again we are always kept in that same precious love.[/i]

Stay strong.

All the best.

I get it. In the midst of the storm, gotta hold His hand tighter instead of letting it pull you away. I hope things get better. 🧡

The difference in believing and experiencing is the difference between being religious and being spiritual. If you are a seeker , you are on path of spirituality, but if you are satisfied with the faith/beliefs you are good as religious.

I am not much good in believing things, so I am more inclined towards seeking to know..

As we destroy and pollute gods creation, cry for home. God knows. It's your joint project. Holding the plastic bag over Nature's head as she dies. Cry crocodile tears and pray pretend prayers for the victim!

I don't know. Lots of paths up the mountain I guess. I'm an atheist and an animal. It's all pretty easy for me.

My post here is the encourage me and others to walk on Christ's path. Nothing more, nothing less.
