Peru is a land steeped in ancient prophecies and wisdom that is vital for our planet during these transitional times. Life in the Incan empire was measured by a thousand year cosmic cycle called an Inti, which means 'Sun'. This thousand year cycle was then divided into halves, each of which was referred to as a Pachakuti.

The Cosmo vision of the Andean world is the conception of duality that is in permanent opposition, but complementary, like the principle of ying/yang that expresses this opposition between day/night, light/dark, man/woman, earth/sky, up/down. This same principle of duality applies to each Pachakuti. However, Pachakuti also is used to refer to the transitional time that divided each Pachakuti and this is characterized as a time of great changes.

There is a legend that says at the time Lemuria was sinking, one of the seven Great Masters of Lemuria, Aramu Muru, was given the mission to bring the sacred Golden Solar Disc from the Temple

“Quality questions create a quality life. Successful people ask better questions, and as a result, they get better answers.”
-- Anthony Robbins

What if we asked ourselves these questions?
- Is there a message for me in this experience?
- What’s the gift in this situation?
- What can I learn from this?
- What’s the most loving thing I could do now?
- What’s the most important thing for me to focus on now?
- What would I do if I knew I could not fail?
- What would I do if there were nothing to fear?



“A prudent question is one-half of wisdom.”
-- Francis Bacon

As Witnesses, you reject John's listing of the 144,000 from the 12 tribes of Israel as allegorical, even though you accept the number he listed as literal. That being said, how do you know that John's light wasn't brighter regarding the 144,000 than the writer of the Book of Numbers and that the listing of tribes he gave was actually the right one? That would seem to be the most plausible assumption given your doctrine of the light always getting brighter...especially since the name of the book is "Revelation" for crying out loud!

I asked earlier "What motivates god?" and the answer from most was that LOVE motivates god. OK here is the problem. I should be noted that the below are simply WIDELY HELD belief and they are not everybodies

1. God is eternal
2. God at some point created the earth
3. God had a reason to create the earth
4. God loves mankind.

Why did god wait until recently (relative to eternity) to create the earth? What made him decide all of a sudden to create the universe? Did he suddenly get lonely in eternity? If god has no needs or desires then why does anything exist?

If you do something good that would normally go in your karma bank and it's not for dishonest purposes, but the motive is not completely selfless either, do you believe it still counts the same? Like giving blood to find out your bloody type? What if you go around doing good things for the sake of building up good karma? Any thoughts?

And if you say original sin, why for Eve eating the fruit were animals punished? I can barely understand humans but animals?

My ex-mother in law never wanted to be cremated because she felt she wouldnt be brought out of the grave. Is this a universal belief. Personally, I believe God can do anything regarding this, as well its much more ecofriendly and saves space in our earth. What are your thoughts?

Why did God not get mad when Abraham laughed as he was telling him that he was going to have loads of descendants at his old age. But when Sarai laughed God rebuked her.

Do you not think it unfair that God sent all those plagues to the Egyptians? He said Himself that He was going to harden pharaohs heart.
Is that not power play? hardening pharaohs' heart to ignore Moses, then when pharaoh does not do as what God says. God punishes him. why? why punish him when He was the one who hardened his heart in the first place.
Also if you were Moses how would you feel towards pharaoh at the point where God kills all the first born males of the Egyptians. Why do that when the guy is only saying "NO" because God has made it like that.
Then mark the day as a day to be celebrated by the Israelites. Surely there was a better way to get his chosen people out of Egypt AND still proclaim his mightiness WITHOUT having to cause DELIBERATE suffering.

okay better yet can you admit that you DONT know god DOESNT exist? Ive already asked the christians if they can admit they dont know god exists but rather believe he does. I mean there is no proof that he does or doesnt as otherwise if there was, then people would be in denial.

and so far none of them have admited that they believe and not know. so can you admit that you believe he doesnt exist, or are you as stubborn as they are? I mean some of you do criticize them for believing things that cant be proven, but then the same would apply to you for believing that something isnt true cause it cant be proven.
