Knowing God Beyond Belief - Detoxing the God Myth
It appears that one of the most fundamental realizations, with respect to awakening to one's true nature, is uprooting deep seeded beliefs, thus creating the opportunity to discern the difference between belief and knowing. For example: The many beliefs people have about God.
​
It comes as no surprise if one person is brought up in a Jewish family then they would have developed a belief/idea about God different from a person who was raised in a Christian tradition. Likewise, a Muslim family will have an entirely different concept of God, slightly different from Christianity and Judaism. Do you see the pattern here? What this indicates is that although all religions are trying to find deeper peace through their respective religion and God that their beliefs are getting in the way of the realization they are seeking.
​
Therefore, we must ask ourselves this question: Am I willing to let go of my belief in God in order to know God. Please understand that the God anyone is seeking cannot be believed - but only known beyond the confines and limitations of one's mind. Here is a short Essay titled, "From Religion to Truth - Knowing God Beyond Belief" which will help set the stage for dissolving beliefs, purifying mind, and orienting one's being towards true God Realization.

We have selected Rupert's videos on the idea of detoxing the God concept simply because we feel his videos are the most clear, eloquent, and direct of the several hundred options available.

Suggested Guidance for Session 1:
​
Find a place where you will not be distracted for at least 30 minutes. A setting in a forest; or by a: mountain, stream, or lake, etc. would be preferred - yet not necessary. If possible, use head phones as to limit the audible distractions from people, pets, and noises. Listen to a video then simmer and marinate in what you have just listened - sit in receptive openness and silence for the remaining time of your 30 minutes.
For one week follow this method:
​
Day 1: watch video 1 once in morning and once before bed (no TV or interruptions between watching and going to sleep.)
Day 2: watch video 2 once in morning and once before bed (no TV or interruptions between watching and going to sleep.)
Day 3 watch video 3 once in morning and once before bed (no TV or interruptions between watching and going to sleep.)
Day 4 watch video 4 once in morning and once before bed (no TV or interruptions between watching and going to sleep.)
Day 5 watch all four videos in succession then spend one hour walking outside somewhere in nature where there are very few people. If that option is not available, just sit for an hour doing nothing but gazing out a window.
