    John's Interests
GeneralReligion, Politics and life

I've studied the world's religions in some depth for the past thirty eight years (since a vision when I was 12 years old). This quest for God is the heart of my interests. Over the years I've developed a rather unique world view but there is always more to learn and understand. My sojourn has not yet ended.

I am always interested in learning more of the Holy One in whatever form and invite correspondence with those of similar interests.

I am interested in civil rights, and the lack thereof, in what is happening to our nation and world.

I am very interested to see what will happen in the autumn of 2008 and even more in the coming events of 2012.

I am interested in the movement to stop infanticide, euthanasia, the death penalty, illegal wars, the corrosion of our freedom and the death of our nation.

There is (at least) one issue where I am adamantly at odds with popular culture:

  • Abortion: I believe the legalization of infanticide in the United States in 1973 was the beginning of the end of our country as a moral nation. With that demonic ruling the US lost ALL the moral high ground it may have had. Any nation that allows (and even encourages!) the wholesale slaughter of its own children is devoid of ANY moral character and deserves to fall as we now are.

    I pray its not yet too late to save our country. To do so we need to:

Outlaw all abortion (except when the mother's life is in serious jeopardy as confirmed by three doctors)
Impeach Dictator Bush and Cheney and co-conspirator Nancy Pelosi
Withdraw ALL US forces from Arabia and other Muslim lands
Increase our aid to Israel with no strings

I am interested in efforts to stop this on-going holocaust of out innocent children.

I am interested, in short, in those topics one is never supposed to talk about: religion and politics.

I dislike overt sexuality in films when used as manipulations or with violence, but I sometimes enjoy erotica when tastefully done.

I love the Srimad Bhagavad Gita (The Glorious Song of God)! Here's a selection from My original translation of the Gita:

2:11: The Blessed One said: While speaking learned words, you are mourning for what is not worthy of grief. Those who are wise lament neither for the living nor for the dead.

2:12: Never was there a time when I did not exist, nor you, nor all these kings, nor in the future shall any of us cease to be.

2:13: As the embodied soul continuously passes, in this body, from boyhood to youth to old age, the soul also passes into another body at death. A sober person is not bewildered by such a change.

2:14: O son of Kunti, sensory perceptions afflict one with cold, heat, pleasure and pain. They appear and disappear and are impermanent. Therefore endure them all O descendent of Bharata.

2:15: One who is never distressed, O best among men, and who remains unaltered [in the face of] suffering and pleasure and is patient, he is eligible for immortality.

2:16: Being does not come from the non-existent, nor does non-being arise from the eternal. This is the considered conclusion of those who see the truth.

2:17,18: Know you by Whom all this imperishable is pervaded. The destruction of this immutable is not possible for anyone.
All these bodies are perishable, but it is said of the eternal embodied soul that it is indestructible and immeasurable, therefore fight, O descendent of Bharata.

2:19: Anyone who considers the slayer or anyone who knows the slain and thinks him killer or killed lacks discernment. No one slays nor is anyone slain.

2:20: It [the immutable soul] is not born, It does not die, at no time did It come into being, nor will It come into being hereafter. It is unborn, eternal, permanent and ancient. It is not killed when the body is slain.

2:21: How can that person who knows the soul to be indestructible, eternal, unborn and immutable, O child of Partha, slay anyone or cause another to kill.

2:22: Just as a man casts off worn out clothing and accepts new ones, even so the embodied soul discards worn out bodies and enters into different ones.

2:23, 24: This soul cannot be severed by weapons, burnt by fire, wetted with water, nor dried by the wind. It is unbreakable, unburnable, It cannot be wetted nor dried. It is eternal and all-pervading, equable, immovable and eternally constant.

2:25-28: The soul is said to be unmanifested; It is inconceivable and unchanging. Therefore, knowing the soul to be thus, you should not lament.
Moreover, if you determine the soul to be constantly born and eternally dying, even then, O mighty armed one, you ought not to lament.
For those born death is certain and for those dead birth is certain. For the sake of the inevitable you ought not lament.
All beings are unmanifested in the beginning, manifested in the middle, and again unmanifested in the end. O descendent of Bharata, where therein is cause for lamentation?

2:29: Some see the soul as amazing. Some speak of the soul as amazing, while others hear of it as amazing. Still, no one truly knows the soul.

From such works of faith and truth the soul finds peace even amidst times of great turmoil and assurance that "This Too Will Pass."

About me:

Hi, I'm John of AllFaith.

http://allfaith.com

http://johnofallfaith.multiply.com

Thanks for stopping by.

I don't post here much anymore. Here are the main three reasons:

1. The lack of response to my blogs here.
2. MySpace sold my personal information to a prostitution site without my permission and then despite several e-mails refused to help me force them to remove it.
3. There are just too many technical glitches when I post here. MySpace really needs to upgrade their auto formatting software.

Please Join Me On My Main Blog Site: http://johnofallfaith.multiply.com!

I've spent most of my life seeking Truth through and apart from the various religions, spiritualities and philosophies and have developed my own somewhat unique take on various topics -- which I often as not refer to as AllFaith (for lack of anything better). My goal is to discover the Truth, to know God, not to conform to standard beliefs.

I deeply believe in the One God. I believe this Being -- this Ek Devata -- is an individual "Person" Who utterly transcends human consciousness. I believe that the One God is the Creator and Master and Lover of all existence and that historically Ek Devata has sent countless teachers, prophets and masters into the material multiverse to help guide us onward through the ever deepening fog.

The One God is the origin of all Religions of Light.

But there is another! This personality, often called the Deceiver, Liar, Shaitan and Devil is the "fallen angel" known as Lucifer. He is the master of much mischief and evil including within the various religious and political activities. And he is preparing to send his Rex Mundi to rule the world!

Know that Lucifer is NOT God's equal! However by God's allowance he has a role to play in God's Plan of Restoration. Our role is to stand again him!

Human beings take the Truth we are given by Ek Devata and often as not contaminate it with dogma and political implications Ek Devata never intended. This contamination is sometimes due to human greed and stupidity and sometimes due to Luciferian manipulation.

I believe the Nature of this Being we call God ("the Good One") is "achintya bheda abheda tattva," which is to say, God is inconceivably, simultaneously one and different from the creation. As children of God we too are gods, however as God created everything this simply speaks of our heritage. As a priceless mirror covered in thick dust our glory is concealed. The purpose of True Religion is to remove this dust. As the Scripture says:

Psalm 82
1 A Psalm of Asaph. God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods.
2 How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah.
3 Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy.
4 Deliver the poor and needy: rid them out of the hand of the wicked.
5 They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course.
6 I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.
7 But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.
8 Arise, O God, judge the earth: for thou shalt inherit all nations.

I'm also deeply interested in politics because political reality is so closely related with our rising as the children of the Most High and the eventual establishment of the coming Kingdom of Moshiach. This is made clear by the prophets. This is a most remarkable time to be alive and we are for a reason!

And in the immortal words of Padmé Naberrie:

    "This is how liberty dies. With thunderous applause."

Or perhaps better, the words of Yeats:

    Turning and turning in the widening gyre
    The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
    Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
    Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
    The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
    The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
    The best lack all conviction, while the worst
    Are full of passionate intensity.
    Surely some revelation is at hand;
    Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
    The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
    When a vast image out of Spritus Mundi
    Troubles my sight: somewhere in the sands of the desert
    A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
    A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
    Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
    Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.
    The darkness drops again; but now I know
    That twenty centuries of stony sleep
    were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
    And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
    Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?

This blog is an outgrowth of AllFaith.com and my own personal beliefs. Here you will find many of my views on religion and politics, the two topics one is never supposed to talk about!

I sincerely invite your thoughts here, whether you agree or disagree with my views on the diverse topics I raise.

I also believe eating and wearing animals is unacceptable. As Dennis Weaver has said:

"There will come a time...when civilized people will look back in horror on our generation and the ones that preceded it: the idea that we should eat other living things running around on four legs, that we should raise them just for the purpose of killing them! The people of the future will say "meat-eaters!" in disgust and regard us in the same way we regard cannibals and cannibalism."

Love animals, don't eat them!

And I believe we are living during an historically pivotal time period. The prophesies of many religions are coming to pass before our eyes. I believe the manifestation of the one called the Rex Mundi, the Antichrist or Dijal is imminent. I see his rising in virtually every news headline, even through the filters of our utterly controlled media.

So, you may not agree with everything you find here (I'd be shocked if you did!), but there's lots of food for thought. Let's discuss the issues! You are welcome.

Who I'd like to meet:

I'm largely a recluse these days.

I live with a couple of dear souls amidst the Northern California buttes. I'm a generally happy person even as I watch for and await the rise of the Rex Mundi.

I admire people with conviction, even when I don't share their views. If we can agree to disagree peacefully I enjoy good discussions and invite your thoughts. I don't care to associate with those who use intimidation or condemnation to get their points across.

So I suppose I'd like to meet people who appreciate the complexity and depth of Truth. As a general sharing of my essential views I wrote the following poem in 1979. This remains my essential point of view:

God's Garden

by John of AllFaith © 1979

Some folks say they know the truth
They claim they've got it all down,
But I say that such people
Are little more than clowns

For God is far greater
Than anything, we conceive
And so we're only partly right
No matter what we believe

Like Paul we gaze in the mirror
And behold our own reflection
I guess we won't really know the Truth
'Till we attain perfection

The only thing I know for sure
Is that God is Love
My only hope of salvation
Is to trust that Love above

Yah vishva deva
Ki vatika
Hai sair karne
Ke liye

[translation: This universe is God's garden
And it's meant for roaming in]

(Read about My Sojourns in God's Garden at MyStory!)

If you like to Roam the Paths of Potentiality, let's talk and maybe even become friends.

From Lama Jigme

Lonely Sexual Tantrika



Inspired by the words of the great
Rime Manipa Tantrika,
Gyalse Ngulchu Thogme;
a lonely sexual tantrika prayed:



“If Never receiving
the 100% romantic twin-flame, who is best for me,
is truly the best way for me
to profoundly benefit and liberate all others;
then may I Never receive her.
Om Mani Padme Hum!

If receiving Next month,
the 100% romantic twin-flame, who is best for me,
is truly the best way for me
to profoundly benefit and liberate all others;
then may I receive her Next month.
Om Mani Padme Hum!

If receiving Today,
the 100% romantic twin-flame, who is best for me,
is the best way for me
to profoundly benefit and liberate all others;
then may I receive her Today.
Om Mani Padme Hum!

May all that I experience, do, say and choose
profoundly benefit and liberate all others
in the Most wonderful way!
Om Mani Padme Hum!

May Chenrezig, the Buddha of Compassion,
who’s body, speech and mind are the synthesis
of every Buddha, their Teachings
and their highly accomplished Disciples;

bless me in this manner,
that ‘I’ in turn may better
bless and liberate all others.
Om Mani Padme Hum!

May all that ‘I’ experience
be the blessing of Chenrezig;
and thus may ‘I’ spontaneously, habitually,
effortlessly and effectively

bring every circumstance, action, word
and choice into Buddha’s paths
of Devotion, Awareness, Love and Letting-go,
without ever trying to change anything.
Om Mani Padme Hum!”

A little boy wanted to meet God.

He knew it was a long trip to where God lived, so he packed his
suitcase with Twinkies and a six-pack of Root Beer and he
started his journey

When he had gone about three blocks, he met an old man. He was
sitting in the park just staring at some pigeons. The boy sat
down next to him and opened his suitcase. He was about to take
a drink from his root beer when he noticed that the old man
looked hungry, so he offered him a Twinkie.

He gratefully accepted it and smiled at him. His smile was so
pleasant that the boy wanted to see it again, so he offered him
a root beer.

Again, he smiled at him. The boy was delighted! They sat there
all afternoon eating and smiling, but they never said a word.

As it grew dark, the boy realized how tired he was and he got up
to leave, but before he had gone more than a few steps, he
turned around, ran back to the old man, and gave him a hug.
He gave him his biggest smile ever.

When the boy opened the door to his own house a short time
later, his mother was surprised by the look of joy on his face.
She asked him, "What did you do today that made you so happy?
"He replied, "I had lunch with God." But before his mother
could respond, he added, "You know what? God's got the most
beautiful smile I've ever seen!"

Meanwhile, the old man, also radiant with joy, returned to his
home. His son was stunned by the look of peace on his face and
he asked," Dad, what did you do today that made you so happy?"
He replied, "I ate Twinkies in the park with God." However,
before his son responded, he added,

"You know, he's much younger than I expected."
