3xi Jesus did most certainly not fuck up. it was all the assholes after him that have forgotten the message. i dont understand how we could even be remotely close to how Jesus was, im guessing that you just see him as a prophet and not as the Christ?
christ: the literal translation for that word is "Anointed" The literal translation for the word anointed is: "To put oil on during a religious ceremony as a sign of sanctification or consecration." i'm sure jesus wasn't the only guy ever anointed in a religious cerimony. i think the more important question neodude1212 is what does the word christ mean to you? i'm guessing as the saviour. but saving you from what? some say jesus saved us from imorrality, damnation....but for many that never had a jesus experience...maybe were raised buddhist, muslim etc their buddha experience or mohammed experience would have saved them to...that makes buddha, mohammed, krishna a "savior"...lsd is a christ to many...as is the occasional person who enters your life and "saves" you from choices or lifestyles or believes that are detrimental. anyone that brings you into truth and light is saving you from something and therefore in that instant they are christ. remember--jesus always said that we could do more than him. its lazy and an offence to him not to try.
"For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see" Jesus = Acid. Before a nice dose of lsd, I was blind. Afterwards I could see. It is a metaphor, it means that I never understood anything I knew until I dosed heavy. When you touch Jesus (LSD) you can see for the first time.
sounds like lsd is your christ....its certainly the closest thing i have to a church. actually being alive--in creation is my religion, this body my church and lsd is the eucharist.
i didn’t say that he asked to be worshiped. i said that his mistake was that he had people worship him. if his true intention was to have people find the divine within themselves (which i am sure it was) then he failed. that is why i say that our saviors of the future will be good to avoid the pedestal. but we are getting off topic...
This is way off topic from the original poster, but, could you give me some advice? I really want to start meditating, but where to start is quite confusing. So many people saying so much! Would you recommend the book How to Meditate: A Guide to Self-Discovery by Lawrence LeShan? I was thinking of picking it up this week. Any quick tidbits/info is also really worth it to me, since I'm planning on dropping acid for the first time by the end of the week. Will medidating help my trip out as much as I get the feeling it will? (I realize that just starting to medidate for half a week before won't help, but...)
