What do you believe in?

Everyone has sometime in life been faced with the question:
- Do you believe in God?

What your answer is to this question very much depends on what kind of experiences you have got in life. If you have experiences of much grief, missing, disappointments and/or how much happiness, joy, love etc… The answer to the question can also depend on which experiences you have had in life, on growing up or which kind of society you grow up in.

What’s interesting, I think, is not if you say that you believe in God or not. What’s interesting is which definition you have of God or if you like, which picture you have of God.

The first questions you should ask are which shape have God, What is God? What is also important to remember when talking of the definition of or picture of God is that no one has got patent on God. I.e. no one can say what’s right or wrong regarding the shape of God.

Is God a person or a force? If he is a person and that person has already lived, then it’s sorry for all of you that lives now, Bad Timing ;-). But if he/she (that was very modern or irritatingly written) is a force, you can ask the question what is and where is this force?  What can this force? What does this force want?

With my background and interest in technology, IT, Energy etc., I see a more logical explanation which leans more to the force direction with some similarities with energy. As you maybe already know energy is indestructible and only changes shape.

If we assume from the definition of God as a force then it’s logical that this force like energy is indestructible and only changes shape. If we further add the parameter that this force created universe then a bit more thoughts appears in one’s head. If this force is like energy you can see it like the force was in the singularity that was before Big Bang and then created the universe.

If one wants to move it up another level you can also see the force as non-physical and that it existed before the singularity. This force then expressed itself in the physical world through Big Bang which emanated from the singularity.

Many thoughts and issues it becomes, but it’s important to remember that no one has patent on God. This makes that one purpose with “The inner journey” is to create one’s own picture of how it all is linked together.

Which is your picture of God or what you call some higher being or force? Please share your own experiences and make comments, have an opened mind, ponder, piece out, discuss and see where the road leads.

Hi and welcome

Do you like to travel?

Personally, I think it is fun to travel and ideally to a nice sunny and warm place. But the most important journey is not the one our body makes rather the journey we make in our inner. All humans make a journey in their inner consciously or unconsciously through the journey they make in life. Therefore can a journey made with the body also affect our inner journey. But it's up to each person to decide how our life journey will affect our innermost.

During our life journey we collect information to our brain through our senses, sight, vision, hearing, touch, smell and taste. The brain affects our emotions when interpreting the information we get from our senses and the emotions in there turn affects how we feel in our inner.

Our life journey can be made alone or in company with other humans. But our inner journey is always made alone and has for all humans the same goal. The goal is to reach your innermost kernel and express it in your daily life.

When we reach our innermost kernel and are connected to it the daily life becomes easier. I don't say that all troubles will go away in a second, but our attitude towards them will change. The attitude will change in a way that we have easier to look upon problems from different angles and also have easier to find solutions to them

When you do your inner journey one way is to ask many questions to yourself and here are some you may ask.
Who am I?
What do I want?
Where am I going?
When you do your inner journey it's good to be inquisitive and in that way get to your innermost. For my inquisitiveness is natural and I remember a secondary teacher who ones said:
- Good, Peter has understood everybody has understood, then we can move on.
I can add that he said it with twinkle in his eye.

Now when we have reached this far I thought I should mention that I do not have patent on "The inner journey", I just write on the blog to share my experiences and like to get some feed-back.

This is my first post in this blog and I only have a very rough sketch of what I shall blog about. I will initially throw myself into interesting subjects like The meaning of life, Religion, God, Atheism, Love, Hat, Happiness, The force, Innermost kernel etc, as soon as I have written something down. I am not absolutely sure in which order I will be addressing the topics or if I will come to think about something else I rather want to blog about.

I think this will be enough as a first post and do share your own experiences or give feed-back. The feed-back posts can even be like:
- I don't believe in "The inner journey" drivel because of...
Only that one has an incentive to one's position and are willing to discuss it.
