I dunno, Gilly, I believe that some strong spirits never do die, they continue to go on in another plane or realm that we ordinarily don't get to see - the physical being just craps out on ya at a certain point. I don't know how else to explain it - I guess it depends on how 'sensitive' you are. I've just had some pretty interesting experiences, let's say, so I'm less skeptical than most.
I do believe in a supreme force, but not necessarily a 'being' as such - what is called the Great I Am, maybe it's God, or Buddha, or Jah or Krishna or Jehovah but I don't anthropomorphize - I think really they're all the same thing anyway, everybody just puts a different ethnic skin on them like their own for the comfort factor. Easier to believe God is on your side (for better or worse) if he's your own color, I suppose.
Ultimately, my beliefs lean a little more to the East although I don't really fall into any rigid set of beliefs - even though I'm a lapsed Lutheran.
And I
always make a point of honoring the religion of whatever church, temple or shrine I find myself in - I'm just hedgin' my bets and try to keep the Karma clean, maaaaannn, just in case.
So what do I believe?
I'll be baa-aaack....maybe.
The only unanswered question that really worries me is what's gonna happen to my tackle?
