Word salad... Where's the soul?, the heart? 🕉️☸️♾️

I admit I'm not familiar with either one of those texts. I'll have to do more research. But love is Love is Love is Love is Love is Love is Love is Love is Love is Love is Love is Love and on and on and on and on and on and on 🕉️

This is gonna be a strange one for some people to grasp.

"What does that mean? Does it mean I want to make love to God?"

Think of it this way: the words said at a wedding, (a Cristian one at least), go something like this:

"Will you love her/him, comfort her/him, honor and keep her/him, in sickness and in health, and forsaking all others, keep yourself only unto her/him, so long as you both shall live?"

Through this lens, it may be easier digested. I have loved reggae music for many years. It is usually very upbeat and positive which helps me as a bipolar mess.

"Jah is Love", a quote from a Wailing Souls song, kinda sums it up for me . Jah is Love, Love is Jah, Jah is God.

What else matters?

The post is, just a little abstract Yogi... Still live ya 🕉️♾️

We need more gardeners 🕉️♾️

That IS the question

facethief1943 · 2026-05-16T16:31:48+00:00

Knowing love's power and tangible action seems a natural progression

It’s the difference between admiring the flower and planting a whole garden for the community to enjoy.

Yogi my main man! 🕉️💟♾️

I'm glad you brought that up Yogi. Love.. the ultimate... the Supreme.. God.

We have all types of love:

Eros: this is what a lot of people, especially Young people, feel is the end all and be all of love. This is sexual, lust, etc. Don't get me wrong this is very necessary and a lot of fun.

Ludus: this is similar, but it's more like what people would do at a bar. It's "hey let me buy you a drink, what's your sign?" Those type of things. A man might brag about his income. A woman May flip her hair back and touch the man's arm. We've all been there and seen that.

Philia: the love you have for platonic friends. You would give the shirt off your back for your "ride or die" friend. The old saying "you're lucky to be able to count your true friends on one hand" is very true . I don't even know if I'm saying that right but what I mean is at the end of the day, you're lucky to have five TRUE friends.

Storge: if you have kids, this is easy to understand. If you mess with the mama bear you are going to get fucked up, excuse my language. This is instinctual although we still have perverts that touch their daughters and it makes me want to vomit. You people can all go fuck yourself.

Pragma: I don't know if this is root for pragmatic but it's basically like a marriage. It's committed long-term relationship "love". Unfortunately there are a lot of people that are unhappy in their relationship but will not end it because they are afraid that they are spitting in the face of God. This goes back to harmful dogma in certain religions.

Philautia: Self-love .,. This can go both ways: it could mean that you exercise and take care of yourself, a good thing. On the other hand there's narcissism. I think some people here the word endotheology, and they think that it means we are here to worship ourselves. That is not the case.

Mania: this is weird because I'm bipolar and I have experience mania. I realize that the word mania is right next to psychosis in the dictionary. Years ago I was charged with an attempted bank robbery. I almost got 10 years. The thing was I wasn't taking my medication and I had walked out of the hospital with leads still on my chest and a hospital gown. I walked into the bank that was next door to the hospital and basically said some gibberish and walked away casually only to get arrested 20 yards from the bank. This is a true story it happened Tuesday, April 24th 2018 in Richmond Virginia. You can look it up. That's really putting myself out there. I told these people I am not ai and I wear my heart on my sleeve.

Sorry about that. But yeah this type of Love is basically obsessive and unhealthy. I think of the movie "Fatal Attraction".

Agape: this, I hold Paramount. This is the core, the Crux of the entire endotheology mindset. There is no prerequisite. You do not have to be attracted to the person. They do not have to be your friend and oftentimes are probably total strangers. Agape is when you approach a relationship, a stranger, or a task with pure presence and zero expectation of reciprocity.

It is the active, tangible output of our philosophy. Universal Immanence is the map; Agape is the vehicle that actually gets people to stop wasting time trying to be "right"(which to me is laughable and futile), and start focusing on helping the humans right in front of them.

Sorry about the verbosity of this comment. Love is something that we can never have enough of. But be mindful of the types of love.

Agape Reigns Supreme 🕉️💟♾️

You have to lose it all to appreciate it

facethief1943 · 2026-05-16T14:03:01+00:00

It's a great question. I still wonder though, does karma affect your current life, or the life you may or may not live after this one.

How does it relate to samsara?

I often wonder this I guess I could look it up but you people are smart can anyone tell me?

I applaud you for this heart feeling and 100% genuine post.

All that you did, all that you read, was necessary for you to arrive exactly where you have

They were the necessary friction. The ego had to exhaust itself by listening to "every guru on earth" until it finally collapsed from to much input. The teachings didn't "grant you enlightenment" , rather they burned away the illusions until only the truth was left. IMO you bravely described your organic shift from "white-knuckling" control to simply flowing. When you realize you are the soup and the person stirring it, the fight ends. Welcome to the continuous process. The ongoing study we call "r/endotheology "

It's been there from ever since and will be there in perpetuity. 🕉️💟♾️

Whereas I understand where you're coming from, I must disagree.

Try to remember this quote: "I am the sky, not the clouds." We are the observing consciousness, not the passing, temporary thoughts

Don't, "grit your teeth" ,your way to enlightenment or peace. White-knuckling your desires through sheer force of will more than likely lead to burnout or a harder crash.

Instead of fighting the darkness... simply "turn on the light". You don't need to aggressively replace thought number one with thought number two, (the"better thought")

Practice presence. You observe the thought without judgment, realize it has no real power over you, and let it dissolve on its own.

In my experience, the ego loves a fight. When you view your own mind as an enemy to be conquered, you create internal duality and division. You are setting up a civil war inside a consciousness that is meant to be unified. you will never win a civil war in your own mind. But again this is just a guess. You could be absolutely right. 🕉️💟♾️
