  1. true names of God(s), Demons etc

    @Nungali there’s some info about the word ‘Logos’ on the first page of this link https://snsociety.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Logos-in-Greek-Culture.pdf
  2. true names of God(s), Demons etc

    @Daniel does this word לוגואים have any meaning in your sacred books?
  3. true names of God(s), Demons etc

    ‘sound’ isn’t even mentioned on the link.
  4. No, it isn’t. I think you should move this thread to your PPD, as it’s entirely unrelated to the Abrahamic religions.

    No worries. Also, just a few lines on very basic beginners stuff will be sufficient for me to start with.

    “In Daoism” it’s Dao. 道 dao4 - Dao. DDJ Ch 25: 天下 母 … 道 tiānxià mǔ … dào - the mother of all things … ‘Dao’. Dao is ziran, the state of not relying on or existing according to anything external. * DDJ Ch 25: 道 法 自然 dao4 fa3 zi4 ran2 - Dao has no law above it. * 自然 zi4 ran2 - ziran.

    @Daniel Paul said he’s a Pharisee, see Philippians 3:5
  12. Yoga in Christianity

    Paul said, “Brethren, I am a Pharisee, a son of Pharisees” (Acts 23:6) Could you pls write a bit about the connection you expect to find? What are these “shells, husks and garments” about?

    @Daniel Saw this picture in a post by Giles https://www.thedaobums.com/topic/950-everyone-post-some-favorite-quotes/?do=findComment&comment=1036864 The Heart chakra's symbol is a 6 pointed star. 2 triangles, one pointing up and the other down to represent balance. It is our center, with 3 chakras above and 3 below. @Nungali another one with “these 'three planes of existence' in religion.”

  22. Yoga in Christianity

    Seems so yes: Technically yes, but not in intend I think. Christianity too, often links in with local religious beliefs and sometimes gets those beliefs totally wrong.
  23. Yoga in Christianity

    (my highlight) This ‘if’ is moot - the quote didn’t say that. What the quote actually said is definitely not Christian. It gives the impression Jesus and Babaji: - are equals; whereas God has no equals. - “planned” together; whereas Christians try to do God’s will.
