I’m spending my Saturday lost in the readings of Rumi, which is my only acceptable way to kick off Cancer season ✌🏻

PreviousOne of the biggest theological concepts that traditional Christianity dedicates its resources to is the concept of sin. They call is the first sin, traditional sin, inherited sin. You have sin, no matter what your life has looked like up until this point, and you will always have sin — but, you should still strive to have zero sin, fruitless as that is, and must continuously throw yourself at church to get rid of sin (in an ongoing cycle). The Christian relationship with sin is one of the reasons that I call myself a “recovering Christian.” ☾ The same is almost tenfold with traditional Catholicism, apparent in practices like going to confession. The Christian relationship with sin is actively in opposition with their own doctrine, in the Bible where it’s said that Christ “paid the price for all sin.” But, that would meant that people are free from sin and from the confines of obedience that the fear of sin brings — which won’t work for the modern church. The church is steeped in tradition that is in open opposition of its own holy doctrine, when you truly read and compare the two, because it uses these traditions as a fear-based tool to manipulate people into fear and behaving certain ways. The biggest fear of all, of course, being that you will go to “hell for eternity when you die.” ☾ These teachings simultaneously preach that you are free from sin through Christ, but must spend the rest of your life asking for forgiveness and behaving out of fear based on your life’s sins. I’m not saying that humans are perfect or that I’m even close — I’m far from it. But the concept of “sin” is fear-based. There is light and dark, right and wrong, and actions and reactions that are either coming from a healed place or a wounded place. There is not “sin” in the Christian concept that they would have you believe. I thought it was a “sin” to read tarot and to develop my psychic gifts and it took me a LONG time to work through that (I still have days where it comes back around). The things that are often labeled as sin are things that would bring us closer to spiritual fulfillment and enlightenment WITHOUT NEEDING the modern church.

NextI’m always thinking about love. Not in the way that you likely think and certainly not in the way that conjures images of romantic comedies or Romeo and Juliet (also, read that book, it’s about the farthest thing from romance that you can possibly imagine and it’s incredibly toxic, thanks). Love is a universal force and if you were to ask me to describe god or the universe in one word, I’d say love. We are doing ourselves and our lives a great disservice when we attribute love to the matrix-driven concept of romantic love. Think of how it felt the last time you were in love, or had convinced yourself that you were? Imagine what your life would look like if you approached every day and everything in your life with that appreciation. ☾ But something that struck me recently was the idea of unconditional versus conditional love. The matrix-bound concept of romantic love will have you believe that there are a lot of conditions attached to love. I’ll love them if they take me to a nice enough restaurant, if they do this, if they think a certain way. Now, certainly, you should have standards — but the second that you begin making your love for someone performance based or based on a set of matrix-defined criteria, you’re doing it wrong. ☾ I have been reading an amazing book by @sadhguru, who aptly points out that there is no such thing as unconditional versus conditional love. There is just love, which by its nature is unconditional. There isn’t conditional and unconditional, there is just LOVE and then CONDITIONS that you attribute to it. Love in its energetic and purest form doesn’t come with a single condition. ☾ Love people without ego. Love without conditions. There is not conditional versus unconditional love — there is just love. No terms and conditions required.
