Re: The Human belief systems.

Quote:
I think a basic trait in mankind is to be honest, and I think we are up to the age of 2 or 3, but then society conditions us, to avoid punishment or to obtain reward, to lie.
I think this is about spot-on, Pat! - But I am also of the opinion that we retain our essence of Honesty, at 'source', and maybe this is the 'entering the kingdom' you speak of? - A return to Reality, in my parlance. That does not equate to becoming like children, but just to delve deep enough into our inner selves that we once again are able to re-connect with our Natural (Honest) states of being. It is never 'lost', and thus all people have the ability to once again 'find'.

I think this searching of inner self is actually the true essence of 'spirituality', and Really does connect us with the greatest of all Truths, as we are also it.
