On my introduction post I mentioned that I have been researching paganism and holistic spiritual traditions since December. I'm very confused on what I want to follow and I'm beginning to wonder if it has to do with what I believe or not. From what I have heard, paganism covers many types of beliefs so there has got to be one that I can relate to.
Here is what I believe:
- God/Ultimate being exists in all of matter. It is so complex that it has to be broken down so humans can comprehend it.
- The ultimate oneness can be broken down into two representing the duality in the world- logic/intuition,yin and yang, God and Goddess. I believe the god deity governs oneside and the goddess the other. I believe symbols alone (not human icons) can represent each side.
-All Gods/Goddesses/Spirits are manifestations of the Divine Oneness. They can interacted with, prayed to etc. They also exist within us (hence why they are part of the ultimate being).
- I prefer to stay away from idols as much as possible when representing the Ultimate Oneness with the exception of the Flower of Life.
- There are two realms in existence- The physical and spirit. Both are equally as important. The physical realm is quite self explanatory: everything is being represented "as is" or logic. The spirit realm is very deep and complex. It shows hidden or inner meaning in things, mostly defying logic.
-Finding Balance and peace is what I strive for. I wish not to become a stranger or outcast in society- I wish to better it. I believe that healthy relationships are very important. I want to be more connected with things.
- I'm drawn to celtic and hindu philosophies. I love nature and animals.
