Church of wisdom and philosophy

I just wrote this out tonight.
It is like a tiny beta of a religion or cult that I would like to start.
Maybe I will, maybe I wont. I’ll think about it more.

The church of wisdom.

Daily Practices:

[1]Send up at least a short prayer to either a deity or your higher self, or to a spirit,
such as a king spirit or grand spirit, of which there are very many.

[2]Do around 1 hour of visualization, meditation, energy manipulation,
or ceremony magic, each day. Some people can do more, some can do less,
depending on their resilience and endurance.

[3]Study important subjects most relative to your survival and progress.
At least 2 hours of reading per day, or watching documentory videos.

[4]Do not use your hours for much fiction, entertainment, or
unimportant data, such as the trivial.

Resolves and affirmations:

[1]Stay focused on the improvement of your friends, your body,
your soul. Progress is important. You must make a firm resolve
within yourself to be as best you can, and acquire and attain.
Also try to never forget who you used to be and who you are now.

[2]Try to replace lower ideas and emotions with higher ones.
For example, replace vengeful hate with a sober and unbiased
study of the problem or person. Try to as clearly as you can,
understand why that person is bad, what bad is, what good is,
why good is, etc.

[3]Almost all things that exist contain dross. There is nothing
in the realms of creation which normally has no dross. Dross is
a universal principal, and it has evidence as well. This principal
means that there is dross in all of our nature, our thoughts, our
understanding, our will, etc. So we must be purifiers and chemists
with thought, to try to deal with all dross. You must treat dross
for the rest of your life, all the time. This is the only way
we get better. Also dross can be converted into a good thing.
It just needs attention to detail and wisdom.

[4]Human beings were custom created for a very specific lifestyle,
purpose and nature. Just like it is the nature for a dog to chase
a rabbit, it is humans which needed civilization. Human need is
a grand example of human purpose. They seem to need allot of
guidance. They are different from the animals. They probably
lost allot of gene pools and technology over the cycles of the
earth. Just as fish must be in water, humans MUST BE in love,
in wisdom, in health, in balance, etc. This is the habitat,
which is most proper for the human being. But most people
live without it. The result is a sick human, just like a fish
would grow sick out of the water.

The greatest virtue:

[1]All things have a time and a place.
[2]All life has a set of absolute and objective needs for it to grow, reproduce, move, etc.
[3]Virtue is a vast category. It contains allot of things, in my own definition, therefor
[4]The greatest virtue is that which governs over each case of specific virtue.
[5]Virtue for a man is not the same as it is for a tapeworm or a wolf.
[6]Without a mind, brain, soul, spirit, we would not understand or be able
to feel or hold in thought any virtue. Therefor the mind, brain
soul, spirit, environment, etc. Proceeds virtue.
[7]Because human existing is required for all virtues in that person,
existing is a virtue itself. Existing in a good way produces good virtues.
Life is more important than virtue, because life invented virtue, and or
discovered virtue.
[8]Life’s prosperity and refinement is therefor more important than virtue,
in many cases. This is not always or absolutely true, but, it seems true in general.
[9]Life’s prosperity and refinement, its extension of its lifetime,
these also produce virtues. Virtues are fruits, and we are trees.
Improve the tree, and the fruit will also improve.
Therefor improve life, and life will produce more and higher virtues.
[10]Only a minority of humans are genetically wise, but to know true prosperity,
you must be wise. If you don’t know what prosperity and improvement is,
you can’t evolve. Therefor the tree which produces virtue fruit,
that tree’s water is wisdom, and in some cases knowledge.
[11]Therefor increasing wisdom and balance interconnects with being
healthy and virtueous.
[12]We cannot neglect a complex machine. Each part of it needs its own
type and style of repair and use. Human life requires each part
be treated by a unique solution. Don’t look for single answers.
Realize that each thing needs a specialized understanding.
This means we must work on virtue, life, health, existence,
and that they all interconnect.

Codes of conduct:

There are infinite things to learn about goodness and its many parts.
Your code of conduct will keep growing, slowly, each day.
Codes of conduct are the eventual fruits of virtue and good ideas.
Letting love and wisdom guide you, you will treat things without
primative anger, without lifeless, passive apathy, with out
un-necissary conflict or unnecissary desire, or misplaced priorities.
Realize your main best parts of yourself, your virtues.
Use those and build on conduct. Without the self, there would
be no conduct. Therefor you must become good, then goodness
will be your nature, and it will be your fruitage.

“Philosophy, and the church’s name”
Like any word, contains many meanings and interpretations.
In my own rewriting of the word, philosophy is about wisdom, but not
just any wisdom, for we could be wise with house construction, but
unwise with how we treat our children. There are many wisdoms.
The wisdom of the truest philosophers refers to super abundance of
health, and prosperity. A healthy and completely informed man needs
friends, but he does not need a government, or dogmatism, or some
poor form of religion.

“Polytheism”:
It is obvious that there are higher beings. It is obvious that many things
beyond human capacity are created. But, in nature, there is to be found a law,
the law of multiple instances. This means that in reality, there will not be
one human, but millions of humans. There is not one star, but billions+ of
stars. There is not one rain droplet, but many. Therefor there are many
spirits, of each type, and many gods, of each type. A single god with no
family would be unnatural. The law of multiple instances is so present,
so hard to refute. For this reason, I say that the christian god is a kind
of angel. He is one of the highest members of the angel race.

“Monotheism”:
The wisest ancients, more advanced than modern man, seem to be polytheist,
in general. Polytheism is the old wisdom. Monotheism is the new “wisdom”.
However, some old wisdoms are remains of ancient super civlizations.
The theism of the egyptians I hold higher than the theism of the muslims.
However, monotheism is not pure bad. The law of centers, it means that
everything has a central point. Our planet has a core, and at its very center,
there is a central point. Stars have centers. Galaxies have centers.
Things tend to be most dense at their center. This is a common thing you
can see in nature. The sphere has to do with a singularity emitting
in all directions equally. The gods of each realm, the creators, have
cores in the center of their cosmos. There is a center god at the middle
of the physical universe as well. There are central gods. Each one
is the core of that aspect of creation. They created it, it is an
extension of them-selves. The idea that all reality has a center,
is true. But this center, some people will worship it, while other
people are perfectly fine with worshipping finite spirits and such.
Also the idea that you could even approach that kind of god, is
hard to imagine. You don’t have a transuniversal cell-phone.
According to my occult readings I must side with polytheism, even though
there is a great source being as well. Monotheism and polytheism are
both true. There is the grand total of higher forces, and then there
are the individual lesser forces, which are a part of the whole but
can also function as sepret individuals.

“Hierarchy of value and modest alms”:
Some people believe human lives are worth a certain amount of money.
Some people like to think that human life is beyond money.
Most people live with a hierarchy of values and priorities, but
they have not pondered those priorities very much.
Cure the dross from your hierarchy. For some people this will
be easy, for some people it will be difficult.
Plants, humans, animals, these are all meant to be.
The earth has a legacy of will and wanting to exist.
Our priority in life should be to modestly save a few lives or
help a few good worthy people. We can’t control the world, but
we can do our personal part. We can’t bite off more than we can chew,
for example, I consider it sufficient to a man and wife to adopt
one child. This whole thing, if done right, is enough.
The person has done enough good. If we give too much, we have
nothing left. Most people can’t give too much. They should give
what they can’t use, or what is not very needed, to someone
who needs it most.

Forming a small scale utopia:

If possible, in my mind, it appears great that all the people
of the church of wisdom eventually move to a single building,
in a good stable country, and live together. There are many corrupt
and bad countries. There are countries of difficulty. It seems
highly logical to me, that we become like friends or family,
and to avoid a life of hardship, we remain in the best country,
with each other. Before world war two, it was wise to leave
the countries which wanted war. Likewise, it is wise to leave
countries with too many problems.

Leadership and control:

It is an act of irresponsibility and foolishness for a man to
assign his governing to someone other than himself. Appointing
governers is a foolish and wrong thing. Governing himself completely,
he needs no government. True philosophers need to government.
We should govern ourself. If the church of wisdom were to grow,
we could vote together on major descitions, such as who we help to
immigrate, or what we study, or what we teach each other.
Direct democracy seems the best option.

The pandemic of foolishness:

Some how, some way, human beings have become the most destructive
and foolish species on earth. We cannot cure foolishness.
This means we can’t have everyone join our movement.
All we can do is sift through the crap until we find someone
who would like our plans and our style of thought and life.
Due to the pandemic of foolishness, the church of wisdom
will only have a few members. Or maybe it will have less than
3 members.

This is the forum where I will make lists of things in order to develop the whole doctrine.

I went there and found only one guest there : ME - :astonished:

So I started eating my own tail.

And bro Dan, why do you need a church?

And bro Dan, exquisite OP.

I hope you’re not sarcastic.
I tried my best in that OP.

It’s not literally a church. I was feeling like I really ought to start an internet religion or a philosophy club.
Maybe I used the wrong wording for the name, but anyways, if you have anything to add to or remove from
the doctrine lists feel free to do so.

No sarcasm Dan. I thought to did an outstanding job. I’m impressed really.

I just learned Fixed Cross has something like a philosophy club already.
I’d like to join the team at least temporarily once he replies to my pm.
