Humans have evolved into their present state over a period of millions of years. With the establishment of civilizations, cultures, religions, political systems and all sorts of ideologies, humans have moved further and further away from life's simple truths and realities. Civilization, whilst having its own benefits and order, have also contributed further division of man from each other.




The biggest misunderstanding and misconception man has come to depend on is the concept of God. He thinks he knows God. The word "God" is the most misunderstood and most abused word in human history. People argue about God as if they know what they are arguing about. Some people argue against God as if they know what they are denying.




The main cause for this misunderstanding is the establishment of "organized religions". Organized religions like the various Christian Churches and other leading non-Christian but organized religions, have ideolized concepts and theories around the word "God". The statements "My God", "Your God", "Their God" came into being because of this misunderstanding and misconception.




Some whack commented that "God did not create Man, but Man created God." Man did not create God. Of course man created the word "God". The word "God" is not God just as much as the word "honey" is not honey. God cannot be created by man because God is the Truth. Truth need not be created by man. Truth is truth.




Man, in his habitual messing behaviour, has also messed up God. The organized religions are responsible for creating the theory that God is "out there" somewhere, when, as Jesus clearly pointed out the "The Kingdom of God is within you..." If God is within, why all this fuss, why all these ritualistic garbage of the churches and organized religions? Is it for their mere survival? How many humans have been tortured and killed in the name of religion? Millions and millions have died in the name of religious ideology over the last few centuries.

AWARENESS

This site is dedicated to spiritual awareness, which is the next stage of human evolution. The process has begun. Buddha and Jesus laid the initial foundation over two thousand years ago, but the significance of their teachings are realized only now. Eckhart Tolle is one of the great spiritual teachers who simplified the teachings of the Buddha and Jesus so that the present generation can understand it without the layers and layers of ritualistic garbage added by the so-called organized religions. The message is simple yet profound. Be aware. Be extremely still and be fully aware of the present moment, the only thing that is real. This is the portal to Nirvana. This is the portal to Salvation and Heaven, which is not 'out there' but deep within us. I dedicate this site to all those who are brave enough to shed their traditional teachings and look at the Truth with new eyes.
