Going out on a "spiritual" limb here, I'll try to give my two cents worth.
Most of what I will post about is based on "knowledge", or study of ancient writings, and primarily the bible, also from my experiences in 57 years of life. No, I am not the least bit "religious", or "spiritual" as many use the term. Those that know me consider me as a knowledgeable and practical man. Of course others may vary with that opinion.
Sky Otter asks,
"do you have to act on anything to be spiritual?"
and,
"and is knowledge just a collection of things?"
Well, if you get a gut feeling about something, check it out, but be very careful about your actions, or acting on it. The world is paved with good intentions.
IMO, knowledge is a collection of experiences that you can trust as truths to give you a solid foundation for possibilities and probabilities that may also be true.
Seek and you will find.
TranceAm asks and comments,
"And true it is, but then again, What can really happen to us?"
Well, I have to trust my two eyes that tell me that person is no longer alive.
But it would be good to see my old friends again. Maybe technologies will soon advance to where people can be cloned and their conciseness be reinstalled. Kinda like restoring a computer, only a bit more complex.
People often get so distracted by "mind games" they fail to see the physical realities unfolding right in front of them. Why has so much sprung up about "spirituality" when it is all based on a word from the bible that is not even translated into english? (Speaking of english again.) Spirit is a transposed word, it means wind, breath, an invisible but physical force of some kind.
The so called Holy Spirit is a force to be reckoned with and has a definite attitude.
