Re: Bump fo dameeva.
I think there has been more mis understanding of the meaning of 'bump':
Bump means tha I am politely remininding you that there is a post left unanswered by you (in this case post 99 of this thread) where I highlight the woo woo brought to this thread by Heinrik (your point being that he/she had mentioned on woo woo).
As I believe I refuted your point you can rubutt or withdraw.
Post 106 was an excellent example of bumping.

Re: Still No Useful Definition of Spirituality
Heinrik writes:
So in my own words, my definition of 'spirituality' is a non-physical entity that is the energy which connects and permeates all living things.
I believe this energy is felt by us all, directed by us all and changes form as, and through us, individually and collectively.
If you could come up with a better less ambiguous title I would be glad to use it but I doubt I would inspire any interest. I have to work with what I've got.
Way to describe The Force, Heinrik.
Is this a better defintion?

Re: Internal Energy
pelican writes:
The energy is in the form of beliefs, thoughts, emotions and actions. I believe the source/force is our whole consciousness within the individual.
That is not energy: that is you calling something that is not energy, energy.

Re: Internal Energy
That is a nice story but you are still very very wrong to call your internal motivations and drives energy.
Why don't you see that what you are calling energy is not energy but motivation derived from you current set of beliefs.
Just like my set of beliefs drives me to attain high qualifications in my field: it's not energy it's what I choose to do.

Re: Internal Energy
As I said, great story.
But you must understand that all of that is not energy. It is what has happened to you to shape you beliefs, attititudes and motivations.
It has nothing to do with energy!
A motivation is not energy!
Your prior experience is not energy!

Re: Emotional energy v physical reaction
pelican writes:
If so, is it possible that an emotional action can cause a physical reaction?
Of course it can. What possible reason would you have to supect it could not?
It would still have nothing to do with energy.
