Hello all,

I had a quick question for anyone who's experienced in yoga/mediation or even mindfulness as I have started these techniques for about a week now and I'm seeing great improvements, others view the positive changes as well. My question for you is during meditation or yoga would it be better to focus on something pleasant and calming such as a flowing stream or a crystal clear beach etc or, would it be better to focus on the things which trouble us, the things which we fear, the things which make us anxious? I have been using the calming method such as quiet peaceful nature scenarios and it's worth while but the thought that crossed my mind to provoke this question is that if meditation is meant for us to seperate feelings and emotions from rational thought and patience then wouldn't it be better for us to learn to calm down while focusing on these various troubling aspects? Any insight will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance:)

We all have different faiths, but why can't people respect that we are all different. I have my beliefs and so does every one else, just because they are not the same does not make them wrong. Why do so many people do this?

Why are you guys attacking them? o_O

Look, if you want to, please do not generalize. A lot of my friends, good Christians, would get offended. As a Muslim myself, I know how it feels, so let me ask politely, don't generalize if you really wanna attack.

Do you think that when Jesus comes back he ever wants to see a cross again? Why are you taunting your savior? Don't you think a "Welcome Home Jesus!" T-shirt would be more effective?

I know St. Paul had done most of the proselytizing and if it wasnt for him Christianity wouldnt be so widely known.

So when one reads the Bible...does one come across Pauls personal thoughts meshed with that of Jesus: i.e. interpretation vs Gods word

or is it all Gods word to Christians?

You are 50+ happy with wife, children good income, enough savings or unmarried but good income, enjoying life. How long more do you want this to go on, or do you think its enough and wont mind to die (serious no religious quotes)

(John 10:34) Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?

(Psalms 82:6) I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.

My understanding is that once you have asked Jesus into your heart and accepted him as the savior, you get into heaven. Your salvation lasts the rest of your life, even if you sin again after becoming born again.

However, there are people who say that you go to Hell if you commit suicide, because you can't ask for forgiveness. But if you are already saved, you shouldn't have to keep asking for forgiveness for every sin, should you?

If so, a lot of "saved" people would end up in Hell. Anyone who told a lie, and was hit by a car before they had a chance to repent, would be damned.

do not believe in Santa or birthdays. Believe the devil "takes" people that commit suicide. Believe if you are of another religion you will go to "hell". Believe in elliminating people from their lives that do not "fit in" with them. My research indicates Jehovah's Witness. However, I thought they did not believe in hell but that the devil was here on Earth and that Christ was crucified on an upright stake and not a cross. Please enlighten me.

I was looking at the statistics of the Buddhists countries. I noticed their population growth rate is kind of slow and in some even decreasing. If that goes on is the Buddhist population expected to decline in the coming years?

Do you think that if we talked about Yahweh in relation to the rest of the Mesopotamian panthoeon would they complain we are putting it in context?
