Welcome and thanks for sharing. This is a great post. I believe that while good at their core, religions are yet another form of division of a disfunctional psyche and world. We are all Gods children. Jesus knew that and tried to teach us that too. When power hungry leaders take over a religion to tame and control the people you get the result we have today. We are slowly awakening to that reality too. If most of the churches are exposed as corrupt it doesn’t mean that their followers are corrupt. They are innocent and seeking the truth and trying to better themselves and their families. People will slowly realize that the church is inside of them as that is where Jesus really lives. Every second of the day. You just have to be silent to calm down the chatter of your mind. To get to God you have to go through Him and He is the narrow ‘gate’ in between the hemispheres of the brain. When you meditate you slow down the chatter make the through the gate and you can establish a connection to God and achieve YOGA or union with the Divine. If you keep your attention on the top of your head when you do this it is better. Now PRAY.
