All spiritual minded welcome; wiccan, pagan, buddhist, zen,ect.
Which paths did you follow? What was it about this particuliar philosophy or religion/spiritual view(s) that matched up to your belief system the most? and what are some of the most spiritually inspiring messages that it has taught you about life?
Any Christian's responding please only answer if you've been more spiritually educated --if you've done some self discovery about yourself in atleast another path.
Thank you.

Hmmm. I have been to many different kinds of Christian religions. I started out Catholic. I then went to Methodist. I went to a lot of freaky churches with my father. I went to Pentecostal churches. I was married in a Universalist church. I am now Kemetic Orthodoxy and that is the best religion for me. I know my gods are listening to me. I have studied other religions though. I want to be able to help my children decide what religion they want to be when they get old enough to pick one.

why should a Christian have to do any more "self-discovering" if they've found their true spiritual identity from the start? I wouldn't give away my faith in Christ for anything...I've been around the world and talked to athiests, buddhists, hindus...I've talked about the New Age, reincarnation, and a hundred other things, and every conversation turns me back to Christ, the only path I have to follow.

I don't really have a spiritual identity, It took me a few times to really meditate correctly, then I learned a little about myself each session, I still keep learning more and more.
I don't follow a specific group, though Buddhism has helped me learn to meditate and I can agree with most of its beliefs

I bet no one will remember this, I'm really dating myself. I was involved in "est" back in the late 70's and early 80's. Very much secular humanist kind of philosophy. I think I spent about ten years in their seminars, etc. Some of it was very helpful and to this day I remember some of the things I learned. But I'm sure glad I was taken back to church and became born again.
Lots of different paths out there....but I'm relieved I'm where I am now.

Christ then Eckankar then Buddhism then Krishna then Christ.Now the Spirit.
have looked at most religions and paths.One God. One Spirit of God. and a soul in each of us .ask the spirit for guidance and learn to listen for the answers .its all within you.

Know yourself the meaning of spiritual before asking question. Your present question is very wrong.

For myself it was all one path leading back to myself, although at times it did not seem this way. ~ : )

All we have is belief and faith. Show me one shred of proof that any belief is true.
