Hey NightSpirit.
Well this is the way I see it, and this Perspective has solved all problems in my existence.

You mention seeing the importance of staying in the NOW.
--- It's important to realize......that the NOW is ALL THERE IS.

And from this NOW we are generating everything.

The reason why I say this is, if we explore the conventional view of time, vis a vie, that there exists this "flow of time". We find that this is a mis perception.

We are told that there exists a force called the "past" and a force called the "future". And we are at the mercy of these "forces".

Simple examination shows that this '"mighty" force labeled the "past".....is simply memories.

If everyone is generating their existence from the Never ending NOW, then responsibility for "evil" is put on the person, not a fictional character.

This post never said that.
This post emphasized to be Aware of all belief systems.

And regarding, SonoranBob's insistence that I need to practice what I preach. I'd like to point out that I said this on the first page of my post.
So I dunno what his beef is ???

Whats your beef, Bob ?
