Looking Upwards
"Looking Upwards" will ponder all things relating to the above, or put more directly, God. All that I"ve experienced in this arena I'll try to share. Appeals, formal prayers, my doubts, experiences and my personal journey are included.
I"ll probe how I evolved from meditation and following the light to listening and talking to a "Still small voice." I'll also relate the times I felt I heard some answers. One is free to doubt what I say but should at least hear what I have to say.
From Abraham's breakthrough in relating to God in a personal way to the times we live in, how we connect to the maker should be on our minds. The major religions all offer some insights into this, as do the deists and transcendentalists. All have some truth within them. Even so, not all truths are equal and some are truer and deeper than others.
The Greek culture versus the Jewish culture is something I'll allude to, even though in the past I"ve often neglected the latter but have come to appreciate. Even the relative truths of not believing in an above will be considered.
I realize there are parameters to what anyone person can know. We all can just see so much and not more. Given these natural limitations, I'll report and cover the state of how things are as best I can. This, along with my unflagging belief there is a maker, will sum up my contribution.
