Duke Wellington Posted November 21, 2022 #1 Share Posted November 21, 2022 This is what Abrahamic mysticism instructs people to do in order to experience God. Initially I must point out that God`s communication is both subtle, and through other people. Let us say you are obese. If I spend an hour talking to you and drop in 200 words like fat, large, massive, huge, wide, into my chat, you would know I was subtly abusing you. People watching may not realise what I`m doing, but you would. This is what we mean by subtle communication through other people. When you do what I am about to take you through listen to what other people say, and it will be undeniable to you. Abrahamic mysticism has it that God created the world for us to enjoy, but there are two problems: 1. We deny ourselves pleasures. 2. We do not show love to God for the pleasures, we enjoy them strictly for ourselves. So, Abrahamic mysticism is quite simple. Enjoy as much pleasure as humanly possible that you encounter and do so to intentionally show love back to God for providing it. This is quite literally all you need to keep doing, but God is particularly interested in unusual, unique, or rare pleasures. Do these and you get the strongest effects. God will talk to you through other people. To enhance the effects even further do things for other people so they can enjoy pleasure too. Warning: Once you start, God won`t let you stop. You`ll see what I mean. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMAO You don`t want to eat them, although you could start there if stuck for ideas. It would be far better to find an unusual pleasure, something you would really enjoy, with the cookie.

Alchopwn Posted November 22, 2022 #6 Share Posted November 22, 2022 This sounds suspiciously like a form of Satanic hedonism, Cookie Monster. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is about power and control. Mostly. With threads like this being about entitlement (basically do what he wants regardless of the consequences). Along with thinking the universe revolves around him. He can also supposedly influence reality. Also goes back to the pleasure at all cost. A lot of it comes to 'seek and you shall find' or the 'universe as a vending machine'. This thread pretty much sealed the deal on my opinion of the op. It's also why I started to despise the idea of hedonism. Because it was those self-indulgent narcissist types that ruin damn near everything. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Narcissism is the most sickening personality disorder imo. Worse still, the narcissists know they're lying to themselves and everyone else, and most of the time nobody else is fooled. It's so infantile and contemptible. Edited November 24, 2022 by Alchopwn 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny now but at 12 saying relieving yourself is evil when it's perfectly normal and healthy is mental child abuse. Another reason religions are destructive to our psyche.
