    May I quote...

    "The spiritual being knows that we are all connected, and he is able to see the fullness of God in each person with whom he makes contact. This sense of connection eliminates much of the inner conflict that the non-spiritual being experiences as he constantly judges others, categorizes them according to physical appearances and behaviors, and then proceeds to find ways to either ignore or take advantage of them for his own benefit."

    As one of my favorite author's puts it.

    Also, remember his other quote I love...

    "We are not human beings having a spiritual experience, we are spiritual beings having a human experience."



    I get this line of thinking's appeal, really. And I definitely understand the psychological attraction that some people have to the whole "New Earth"/Eckhart Tolle-like doctrine, and it's sociological impact stemming from the ideas. But it's basis is not in traditional Judaic/Christian tenets so much as it stems from what you "feel," an amalgmation and appropriation of many religions almost. How do you, personally, reconcile that with what the Torah or Bible teaches about our connection with G-d and each other?
