Religion

well it works

I disagree. if something is of a spiritual nature it has to have metaphysical characteristics. it has to be in touch with the divine in order to be called spiritual in the first place.

Its easy to be a hippy and subscribe to a care free minimalist lifestyle because it means you never have to achieve anything and be responsible. Hence why more women are hippys.

10/10 would carry chlamydia.

Isn't spirituality and theism synonymous with each other?

Isn't that just Buddhism?

I actually have a business selling "spiritual" shit to yuppies like this.

Shh. Don't tell them. The crap is made in sweatshops. My warehouse is staffed with illegals. Those pants are made of chemically produced Rayon (not bamboo). Your mala beads are plastic.

It's good money though.

Namaste

You can believe in souls without believing in supreme beings.
Confucianism doesn't have gods.
And Taoism doesn't, depending on which version.

I live in Upstate NY and these hippie occultist types are very common here. They all live cursed lives, full of drugs and sadness. Their looks get destroyed almost immediately. Their bodies are disgusting. They smell. Their faces are all lined from smoking and doing drugs. Their worn out cunts are absolutely revolting.

They burn the coal and always pay the toll. Their screwed up kids turn out to be real monsters.

Eventually they become fat old dykes when they realize no one would ever want them. They also lose their minds from years of occult nonsense, drug use and generally being crazy. They're a sick lot and they bring suffering into the lives of everyone around them.

>"god=the universe" meme
I like the dao but your statement doesn't seem right.. Isn't God everything ie everything in the universe? ie god is the universe?

That’s awesome
I actually dated a girl who bought all this shit and even had dreadlocks like pic related. She had a really nasty weed habit, couldn’t even eat food without smoking

My mom says Buddhism isn't a religion because Buddha never called himself God or a prophet of God and it can be combined with other religions although some parts are incompatible with Christianity. She says she doesn't believe in it through and is only interested in the Bible.

kek
You two should get together, maybe brain storms some merch.

enlightened poo in loo

theism = god(s) exist(s)
spirituality = spirits, spiritual realms, magic etc pick-your-poison exist but not deities exist

I don't think any branch of buddhism denies the existence of gods
atleast some branches of it consider them stuck in the same enlightenment rollercoaster as everyone else and not in any way superior to humans in getting to the end

>My mom says
Son.. you should leave now.. Run far away.. Go outside .. its not too late (The ride never ends!!)

>I don't think any branch of buddhism denies the existence of gods
What deity exists in Buddhism?
The Buddhas are staunchly NOT gods.

What are the girls into the occult like astrology or numerology or fortune telling by tarot or palm reading but not drugs or lots of sex called? I've met these types.

I like those degenerate Indian guru guys that forsake all possessions and family. They sit around all day begging and smoking hash.
That's not why I like them though.. The reason they live like that is so they can get off the ride.. they want the ride to end and never to be reincarnated back into the karmic wheel.. Fucking hard core had enough of this shit.

>What deity exists in Buddhism?
none in buddhism itself but buddhism isn't an exclusive religion (as seen with hinduism, taoism, shinto and various native religions)
you can syncretise it to hell and back, it doesn't outright deny any other religions and is very meldable
I even saw some threadcap of a christian Jow Forumsack syncretising it with christianity by way of seeing jesus dying as paying the karmic debts meaning everyone gets off mr karma's wild ride
>The Buddhas are staunchly NOT gods.
thanks captain obvious

No.

>kike materialism vs spiritual
She doesn't need to (((believe))) in god if he's already exist.

Get your shit togheter user

I'd say ~50% of hippie chicks are religious.The newish hipster ones that are imposters, they are the ones you are describing. But I know of many hippies that get burnt out and find god or incorporate christian god into their beliefs. also if you've ever spent time studying actual hippies, many of them are jesus freaks. source: much time spent studying the hippies. loving relations with hippie chick. secretly loved bible. not so secretly did not like black people that much. that's my story. also a testament to nature vs nuture. you can try and brainwash people all you want but deep down in their soul, they remember that their grandfather was a pastor in virginia.

Why not?

buddhist doctrine literally asserts the existence of a realm of gods, one of the six realms of samsara. you can according to buddhist teaching literally become a god, but that is still not the goal (extinguished, nirvana)

she does belive in god
the god is ego herself

GTFO fagg!

Everyone worships a god, she and most atheists worship themselves.

and thats pretty much satanism

>Satanism
Atheism, spiritualism, agnosticism its all different appendages of the same evil ones grip on this falls world. Fill yourself with the indwelling Holt Spirit, follow Christ's example, and be thankful to the Father - you get an easy sense of whom these people worship and serve (even if they disbelieve.)

>calls herself spiritual

i call her spermable
