Narrow belief systems, speak of a wrathful God, who will burn us in hell if we question scriptures or ring not temple’s bell. Narrow belief systems, preying on heart’s fears are fundamentalistic; a bundle of falsehood, defied by the mystic. Narrow belief systems, warn of soul’s damnation in case we don’t comply, daring to so question, what, when, who, how or why. Narrow belief systems, entertain not dissent, cultivating yes-men, who know not how to pray ~ surely, an ill-omen. 28-June-2022

The fear of Hell... a powerful thing.

Fear is but thought, as is desire. As such, hell is but imagination but we’re powerful enough to manifest our own reality. In a state of trance, the dream seems real.
