the word religion,means to'' link up with''it has the same meaning as the word yoga,''to combine/merge''with the Supreme.
interesting.. I have always thought of the original meaning as in being "tied to" and therefore limiting. But what you posted is actually quite fascinating.
You've got me thinking!....

Blessings,
Brian

!
Well Jesus said to Peter about this he said ``Get behind me satan``. because Peter could only see the logic of this world and saving Jesus life... In Matthew 6:14 Jesus said ``for if we forgive men their trespasses your heavenly Father will also forgive you... but if you forgive not men their trespasses neither will your Father forgive your trespasses......``... See Jesus said forgive them for the don`t know what they are doing because it the heart of the Lord and in Jesus never forgived them Jesus would have missed the honor of the cross and sinned like Adam and have to start all over again........

its said that in our original state we are full of bliss and knowledge,our original spirits are the same in quality as God's spirit but not in quantity,like the fire and the spark that emanates from the fire,they are the same in quality but not quantity/or the ocean and a drop of water from the ocean..............God is the whole while we are the parts/He is Love and so are we.

matter is temporary and spirit is eternal,on this plane of existence matter and spirit co-exist,but in the spiritual universe everything is made of pure spiritual energy,we are only trying to re-link something that has been linked for eternity.when we get back home to the Godhead all our billons of lifetimes on the temporary material platform will seem like a flash in time,like waking from a sleep,you wake up kind-of remembering some dreams,then you get on with life(at which this stage you will have reached the highest perfection and the ecstatic love is eternally getting better),and you start to forget the dream and start living one hell of an adventure.

whatever one gets up to in the spiritual world(universe),will be to the sentiments of the individual and their relationship with God,but what is really goin on is whats goin down on the inside,we will be feling exactly what God feels just on a smaller scale,and His Love is forever expanding,,,He is Love and so are we and He is the resevore of all transendental pleasure!!!!!!!!!!!!
