Hey Deekun, Monica & Unity,
Thanks for your posts Monica- I think my second post that you responded to addresses most of your comments in the first , as you saw. I wanted to comment though that you are totally right on about the rationality & spirituality part that you mentioned. You see- even in my initial post I was still un-consciously biasing my comments towards the mainstream view of metaphysics! (wow).
These days I am much more lenient towards ideas in metaphysical writings that would be controversial in science. I suspect greatly that many ideas therein could be confirmed with a more open minded (and open hearted!) scientific approach. There are still, of course, those things which I do not believe in because I just can't rectify how they could be true in my mind. (intentionally not giving examples so as to keep the topic here focused) But these are not conclusions on my part because I am always open to further evidence, and the great mystery that is existence.
And I greatly look forward to using much time/space in the Akashic libraries once I move on to larger life, absorbing information about the things I believe now and things I do not believe. That should be fun, eventually. For now I'm too busy learning the ways of love. (my main purpose here after all)
