The Bible has over 500 pages that are considered pornographic.
The written word is no better in it’s influence for inner
growth than any pornography. All the words of inspiration
and, for ‘life direction’ are only valuable for the moment
are the imaginations that include ‘sex pictures’ in a magazine
or, on the internet unless they are manifested in high conscious
reality.
The ‘being’ is very stubborn to inner development and expression
of consciousness. ‘Living-in-place’ is going nowhere but
thinking you’re going somewhere. All the reading of spiritual,
self help, and holy books amounts to NOTHING but ‘knowledge’
in the mind with little or no outer manifestation. There are
no miracles beyond ‘life’ but, for one who lives fully with
consciousness. Intelligence comes not from book reading but
from a combination of all aspects of experience including
emotional.
Religions have essentially been
‘run’ by men with high
intellect and ability to remember what they’ve read, at
the expense of high conscious personal connections with
anyone else. To have, seemingly, all the verbal answers
and ‘proclamations’, is a major ‘spin’ on the positive
realities of a personal life. Throw in ‘fear of death and
hell’ and, this is nothing but a manipulation for personal
ego-gain.
Once an author (spiritual leader) is ‘dead’, with few
exceptions, there is a missing link to
the ‘live’ connection that reaches the ‘emotional’ being.
Always, it is important to ascertain what an ‘authors’
personal experiences have been. For example, listening
an ‘espouser of thoughts to live by’, who has not demonstrated
actualized personal fulfillment in his life, is to be left with
the mental carcass of just a ‘wordsmiths’ words.
The intellect is very capable of mixing words that have little
foundation in experience and yet, with charisma, spell nothing
by ‘mumbo jumbo’. The best source of inner development is ‘you’
in full awareness.
