Fundamentalism, in and of itself, is benign and can be personally beneficial, but the anger and prejudice generated by extreme beliefs can permanently damage your brain.

The difficulty in today's world is our technology and science has outrun our theological advances. The reason for that is in technology and science, we have had the courage to ask the single question that theology has been afraid to ask: Is it possible that there's something I don't know about this, the knowing of which would change everything?

Consciousness is the ground of all being everything is consciousness. Beyond that, definition is impossible because any way we may attempt to define it would limit consciousness.

The first thing we need to do is realize that some of our old beliefs are dysfunctional and no longer work, if indeed they ever did. If the desire to do that isn't there, there's nothing to do.

God is the causal power of consciousness as the ground of all being. So we can say that God is the causal power exerted in the creative experiences that we have. However, that causal power is usually very limited we've become conditioned and that conditioning comes from what we call ego.
