If it's legit then it's no longer a dogma but the truth. So yea I would have no problem sticking with it. Sometimes by testing it and seeing the fruits of it. Sometimes by having a deep heart resonance and knowledge that goes beyond the intellectual mind. Sometimes by lots of mental convincing.

You can awaken by following something dogmaticly for sure if the thing you follow is legit. Like you can do yoga with total blind faith and it will still work if it's legit. And you can do rituals with blind faith and it will work if the rituals are actually legit. The efficiency of the path does not depend on whether you believe in it or not.

It's convincing enough for me. It's not that difficult to find awake religious people. But of course there is no limit to how sceptical one can be. Even if I showed you a million of legit examples in front of your eyes, you could still be sceptical and find a way to be unconvinced, if you want to remain unconvinced.

There are many Hindus that awaken through their system. Neem Karoli Baba would worship a monkey god (Hanuman). Many such examples exist in every religion actually.

What do you mean religious?

Mm, nice. But the ego thrives only because of unawareness. Awareness kills the ego.

I believe it's possible. Not 100% sure tho.

It's a matter of degree. Some are considerably more egoless than others.

For those with ego.

I thought you had some profound Awakening

Pure heart + sceptism. Ultimate combo. @Yimpawhat's up with the new signature 👆?

Oh, I still have something to say, lol. That sceptism can come from ego or from honesty. Lots of sceptism can be done just to avoid facing the truth aswell. Inventing new and new reasons to deny something that threatens the ego's thought structure.

I'm happy with the conclusion here somehow. Peace🌻🦋💫

They say Shroud of Turin is the first picture made by God 😂 Because it's some kind of flash of light that got imprinted in the cloth. Like a photography. (I can't remember exactly)

Mm, it depends on the level of spiritual development of the one making the research. Skeptics are just as biased in their research and the conclusions that they make. A pure heart is what is needed to see things more clearly.

I like my imaginings. I would like to imagine a calmer version of you aswell

It's okay. The level of bias in Christians is irrelevant to how convincing and fascinating the Shroud is imo.

I guess that's true. But I like the plausiblity of it. I feel the deeper one goes into investigating this Shroud, the more convincing it gets. Yea I know what you mean. People are biased. Including skeptics. They too will select information that support their preferred mental positions. Still I find the Shroud an interesting and plausible little miracle dangling in front of our eyes. I like that. Just the fact that there is so much mistery that can't be explained is fascinating.

Lol I've just read a funny reply on a comment from somebody who claims the Shroud was forged. Simplest debunk which ignores all the other problems with it being a forgery. 1. the forger first somehow painted the bloodstains before he painted the image. 2. ⁠the forger integrated forensic qualities that would only be known in the 19th century. 3. ⁠the forger duplicated blood flow patterns in perfect forensic agreement to blood flow from the wrists at 65 degrees from vertical to suggest the exact positions of the arms in crucifixion. ⁠ 4. the forger painted the blood flows with genuine AB- blood that he had spiked with excessive amounts of bilirubin since the forger knew that severe scourging with a Roman flagrum would cause erythrocyte hemolysis and jaundice. 5. ⁠the forger plotted the scourge marks on the body of the man on the shroud shroud to be consistent with forensic examination with two scourgers of the same height. ⁠6. the forger also duplicated abrasion and compression marks on the scourge wounds of the shoulders to suggest to 20th century examiners that the man on the shroud had carried a heavy weight following the scourging and more. 7. ⁠the forger, as the genius he is, illustrated the nails of a crucifixion accurately through the wrists instead of the palms as in all other conventional medieval representations. ⁠8. the forger salted the linen with pollen of plants indigenous only to the environment of Jerusalem in anticipation of 20th century palynological analysis. 9. ⁠the forger somehow managed to paint an anatomical and photographic perfect human image in a photographic negative manner centuries before photography. 10.⁠ the forger painted the image with some unknown medium using an unknown technique, 30-40ft away in order to discern the shadowy image as he continued. ⁠ 11. the forger was clever enough to depict an adult with an unplaited ponytail, sidelocks and a beard consistent with a Jewish male of the 1st century. ⁠ 12. the forger thought of such minute details incorporating dirt from the feet of the man on the shroud consistent with the limestone of the environment in Jerusalem. ⁠ 13. the forger was such an expert in 20th century biochemistry, medicine, forensics, pathology, anatomy, botany, photography and 3D computer analysis, that he has foiled the attempts of modern science. His artistic technique clearly triumphs over the likes of Da Vinci and Michelangelo.

? I didn't see any cope. The new evidence that Shroud of Turin dates to 2000years ago is legit tho.

We do actually now. #ShroudOfTurin

Like what? You must have done something right to get that dream.

If you prefer that word, yes. The spiritual sun within you. The Christ Light.

If the heart gets activated, these things become natural. It's like you become a becon of light or smth and you become visible to the otherside and they to you.

Where have you been for so long, babe. I've missed you so much 🌊
