RE: "Complexity" - A Personal Rant

in #life7 years ago (edited)

I too am in a place where I gave up belief systems. I don't identify as an atheist either because that in itself is a belief system that nothing beyond this life exists. I don't think that either. I think consciousness is something we don't understand, but that it is the essence of this life. Consciousness exists and communicates with outside of our physical form. Who we are, our identification of self is outside of the body and exists beyond the body.

The fun thing about not having belief systems as a paradigm, means I can take theories, or ideas, plug them into my current construct of reality and see how it fits. If it doesn't I can let it go without fanfare or issues, and move on to the next idea. That is one of the biggest problems with holding tightly to belief systems, they are constructs that do not allow for new ideas or ways of thinking or viewing the world, they are rigid structures that require the believers to stick to the written script and not deviate.

Sure people are free to hold belief systems, but the question is why should we? If people entrenched in belief systems would just stop and ask why they so strongly believe something that is rigid as truth, then maybe they could look beyond their narrow view of the world to see more of the grand scheme of what reality is meant for.

I think that this reality is a simulation used by our higher dimension consciousness being that this body represents a portion of. I currently think that this reality is a training ground for immature consciousness, for which we keep upgrading and absorbing as we grow and mature (our higher self not just our current reality representation.) This is why we are often like toddlers still into adulthood, because our consciousness is an immature whole self. I think we keep coming back to absorb more experience, much like a new life in a video game. lol

But these things that I think can be changed as I get new information or contemplate new ideas. I am not rigidly stuck to these ideas as a belief system. I will not feel betrayal if I stop thinking these things as I hold no emotional attachment to them. I just try to not rack up any more bad karma that I will have to deal with in this life and after this life is over. I'd much rather have good karma (energy) that supports me through this life and is a learning experience for my whole conscious self.

Great post. Nice to see others contemplating reality and belief systems. :)
