Who am I, Why am I here, Where am I going These are probably the three most important questions that any

human being can ask. The religions of the world have their answer for these questions, but in my opinion, they would be wrong. All religions at their base teach love for God and love for your fellow mankind. However, at that point they start to differ on the above three questions. Question #1: Who am I? Most religions dont really answer this question. Usually you will get that we are human beings with a soul. For question #2: Why am I here? they say we are here to prove our worthiness to go to Heaven when this life is done. We are here to obey certain laws of conduct; if we violate these laws then we could possibly go to hell for all eternity when we die. For question #3: Where am I going? some religions say our final destination is one of three places: heaven, hell or purgatory. That we will be judged by God for breaking the laws set up by individual religions. In other words, each religion has its own set of rules and they expect God to judge us by rules made up by early religious leaders. However, some rules can be considered mortal sins and yet be non-existent in other religions. For instance, the Catholic religion says if you miss Mass on Sunday or Holy days and you die, you will go straight to hell for eternity. However, if you are a Protestant, Jew, Buddhist or Hindu this rule does not exist. If you live in the jungles of South America or Africa you may never have heard of a Mass, so how are you expected to comply. All religions were started by human beings to answer these three basic questions. Who am I? Why am I here? Where am I going? Unfortunately in my own opinion, they failed miserably at explaining the truth so they reverted to setting up their own rules and used God as their excuse to condemn and punish anyone not following their individual set of rules. They made God out to

be vengeful, angry, and unforgiving. For over 3000 years, religions have caused wars, hatred and uncertainties to the degree that this planet has become a mess. Are religions bad? Of course not, but are they telling the truth? Only you can answer that question. I saw a documentary about the life of Jesus from the age of 13 to 30. How Jesus left his home in Nazareth and traveled to India and Tibet to learn the basics of Buddhism, Hinduism, and Islam to teach the people of these countries the meaning of life. Yet when a Catholic priest was asked his opinion of Jesus 17 years in Persia, India, and Tibet; he violently denied the fact that Jesus ever set foot in these countries, expecting us to believe that Jesus spent 17 years of his life working in his fathers carpentry shop building tables and chairs. We are in the age of enlightenment and the truth is slowly but surely overcoming ancient superstitions and mistruths. Most of the proof is buried in areas dominated by political and religious opposition that if the truth be known by the masses, they would cease to have any power at all in dominating the uneducated. There is a saying that goes like this: Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. However, the time is coming and very soon the majority of people will turn away from religion and turn to spirituality. Here is my answer to the three questions: Who am I? You are pure spirit, cast into a human mold as a manifestation of Divine Intelligence, existing this little while on Earth to help carry on the Divine Plan. Being pure spirit, you are a part of the only intelligence there is and all the power and understanding of this intelligence are yours to draw upon. Why am I here? The only reasonable and intelligent answer that makes sense to me is that the Universal Superconscious Mind (GOD) is seeking to know itself by becoming things because it cannot know itself as infinity. Thus we are born, we live, we have free will, we do well, we do badly,

we suffer, and we die. All the while we are expanding our consciousness. GOD seeks to know itself by becoming you and me and every other thing in the Universe. Thus, human purpose is destined to expand self-consciousness to Infinity. Where am I going? To understand Infinity, we need to be infinite. Our body will clearly die, but our soul, our Subconscious Mind will never die. Neither was it ever born. What do the Great Teachers of all time keep saying? WE ARE ONE WITH GOD! And GOD has no intention of doing anything with your soul except to bring it back home where it belongs. Here is a theory that makes a lot of sense to me. There is no such place in the hereafter as Heaven or Hell. Heaven or Hell is right here on Earth. We either live a happy, fruitful and rewarding life or we live an unhappy and meaningless life. The devil and sin are non-existent and are creations made up by early religions to put fear into the hearts of people in order to control them. God is everything in the Universe, God is us and we are God. God is love, beauty, and the truth. To understand God fully, think of God as the ocean and of mankind as individual drops of water in the ocean. When you come into this life God places your soul (subconscious mind) into a new body and you are born. The purpose of this life is to enjoy the experience and to grow in enlightenment. When we die (there is no death, just a transition from one realm to another) our soul, that little drop of water, goes back into the ocean (God) to reincarnate over and over. God does not judge, God does not condemn, God does not punish. Our soul, our subconscious mind, that little drop of water is infinite, thus it reincarnates into another human body. We have lived thousands of lives and will live thousands of more lives until we reach the level of the great Lords of our planet such as Jesus, Mohammad, Buddha, Krishna, etc. When we reach this level we will return as teachers. In the words of the great poet John Kents:

Truth is beauty Beauty is truth That is all we know on Earth And all we need to know.
