      @@fitnessbasicsuk Our very own existence is dependent on external factors. Even if you become as holy as Jesus, you’ll still need food and shelter because material things won’t pop from the sky. To get this, you must deceive ppl up to a certain level. Even if you ask for no money from your followers, someone will end up believing in you more than in God. We also deceive ourselves by not knowing that God is with us all the time, all the time.

      I get what you mean by saying that it's illusory, but it doesn't really hold any practicality in this world. For instance, if you were to be locked up in a maximum security prison then you would more than likely meet some rather evil people regardless of whether you believe that they're evil or not.

      Using his "Ocean" analogy, you ate correct. The "Light is like the surface of the Ocean, it is what people see, what is brought "to the light", while the depths of the Ocean, the Abyss, is where the most dominant, predatory creatures reside, but also the part in which contains the most mystery, and therfore stimulates the imagination.

      @@Tsun_Wu_Kong-Hanuman I agree with you on the conditioning part, or "brainwashing", it's called NLP, it's used in everything from Music, to Advertisement, because ultimately it is language based, you can't really avoid it, just become aware of it and build resistance. There is so.e frequency conditioning too, why Music and little jingles and sounds are used in advertisement.
      However, it goes beyond "race", it also uses inter-generarional warfare (pitting Elderly vs. Youth), class warfare (poor vs. Rich, or successful vs. Non-successful), beliefs (religions, sciences), biological ("Healthy" vs. "Unhealthy"). It goes pretty deep mate, so yes.

      I personally don't consider "dark" as bad, but one of the reasons the general consensus that dark is considered bad comes from the Christians (or more appropriately the Catholic church). For in that book that was issued MANY years ago BY the Catholic Church as the authorized version known as the King James Bible, states that "men preferred the darkness over the light, because their deeds were evil "

      For me what is considered by the conditioned to be bad, is not. My belief is there is no right or wrong, there is only experiences which are our lessons. I may be considered good for my acts but my thoughts count too. And here is where my shadow lives, unseen. Are my thoughts bad? Well only yesterday i decided to accept that not all my thoughts are always "good". I thought i was falling or letting myself down by getting angry or allowing myself to behave in my mind or my words i speak if i got upset. Listening to this perspective i understand now for me, its about acceptance. Without sadness we cannot feel the joy of happy, so i have to accept that i may try to live consciously and behave in a certain way but if i also dont allow my shadow to be, then how can i be? How can i feel?
