she then magically opens your wisdom eye and you experience enlightenment. At first you dont accept that you are god like, you know, one of gods childeren, childeren are like their parents. So after initiation you have to meditate 2.5 hours min every day until you fully realize it.

You can't expect to wield supreme enlightenment just 'cause some magical tart waved her hands at you.

Cults and groups for 'special/magical/mystical' tricks are for the weak willed. You play with the cards you are delt, not change them around. And everything gained costs a price.

I'm pretty sure you can't get enlightenned eating just vegatables, unless anemia comes with being enlightenned.
Because eating meat is of course the ONLY way to get iron...

Thanks for your good reply. I already ordered planescape, but if I finish it early and have extra time I will look into the others.

Im not just trusting her. I am trusting athe scriptures of all the major religions. this is what all the saints and such talk about. And your right, I wont have to wait even a day for mindblowing results. After that I wont have to wait weeks to see real good changes in my physical life for the better. Jesus said everything I have done you can do greater" we are all gods childeren.

logos? the word? plato's forms? btw some religions like buddhism simply cannot be combined with judeo-christian-muslim religion, you can take some ideas here and there, mix and match them, show similarities, awe few ignorant people, and bam! you become a master. but in the end you're still full of it

If this woman knows the secret to all knowledge and godhood, what great theories and inventions has she made? Where is the cure for the common cold and AIDS? Why isn't she ruling the world and making it a better place? Perhaps because she is a liar who relies on gullible people to sustain her. Hopefully you'll grow out of this "magical stardust child" phase before it is too late.

Stay away from any kind of religion, be it traditional, cult, or otherwise. There are books out there written to brainwash and convert you, and the scariest thing is, they WORK. I've read two of those, and I by far wasn't the only one completely overwhelmed by them. Be careful what you put in your head - sometimes, you won't be able to get it out.

Those were in Russian. And we gave them away. A friend of mine had some, but his mom gave them away to some preach who apparently burned them. It was that New Age shit, what with extradimensional aliens and reincarnation and destiny healing, only for some reason it made perfect sense.

You asshole, I swore off drinking last week. I don't need to take that shit from you anymore.

My magic eye has been opened as well and it has given me the insight to see just how much morrowind truly sucks.
geneforge has opened my magic eye. i used to be a rabid morrowind fan. now i still like it but see it as a mediocre rpg. it's still a first rate dress up game though :)

Age of Wonders is a great franchise, but it ain't no RPG. Go for Planescape, it'll make the best LAST GAME EVAH B4 ENLIGHTENMENT, and you'll play it again once this whole crazy phase passes over.

She says meditating without being initiated by a master is a waist of time.

Okay.. 'scuse me while I rant a bit here. Why is it that you need a master to initiate you? Who was the master initiated by? 'Cause if ultimately it's a waste of time without a master, then how could anyone have become a master in the first place? Chicken and egg anyone? Just a thought...

Hussar, have you read the dead sea scrolls? They make christianity much clearer. It matches up very well with buddism. anls, the buddist precepts are the same as the 10 comandments.

She was iniated by a master. Almost no one can do it on there own.

Your insults Do effect me at all. I only told y'al hopeing youd read one of her books. One of her websites is Godsdirectcontact.org You are the ones missing out, I have given you good reasons to think she is probably legit. No one initiated has said a bad word about her in english.

None of the Masters have been in control of a country. I think they know there time is better spent enlightening people. She doesnt get any support from her desciples, so she is doing it 100% out of goodwill/love.
