I am Samme the creator of this guild. Let me tell you about myself. I am headstrong, bold, indifferent, and full of quirks. I never give up and I never back down. I search for my own answers to the riddles of life. I am a women of few words but I have many incredibly outrageous, humorous sayings. I have a way with words most people have a hard time understanding. I'm like a Guru, rare, few and far between. I love food and flavor it is my passion. Someday I aim to become a master chef. Friends say that I am a battery of energy, that I never slow down. My interests are: * Culinary Arts * food * flavor * music * travel * adventure * meditation * yoga * culture * philosophy * reading * writing * Osho This is me: 3nodding I have a Blog called Chronicling the life and enlightenment of S. J. L. The direct link to my Blog is below: http://chroniclinglifeenlightenmentbysjl.blogspot.com/Please be so kind as to maybe follow it and show it to others.

You can just call me by my username, or some variation thereof.
Personality wise I can be kinda shy (or introverse at least), but I'm pretty understanding and friendly. I try to make it a point to respect other's veiws on things because I can't expect someone to do the same for me otherwise. I enjoy deep conversation moreso than small talk, but all conversation is welcome on my part.
As far as my interests go, I am in love with drumming (Djembe drum circles are the best), I unicycle, I love art and literature, music in general is a passion, I love festivals and faires like the Renaissance, and... I'm more philosophical than religious.
*EDIT: I'm also big on gaming. I PC game, and currently Black Ops would have to be my obsession. At least, until Diablo III comes out..
If you want to see a picture of me, you can visit my profile.

Namaste! I prefer to be called Manju, but my screen name would do as well smile
For most of my life, I examined every religion I could grasp and every form of occultism that accompanied, but after tasting peace, I left that behind and found myself in Buddhism which I have been following for over a year with varying success. Zen Buddhism speaks to me loudest.
I like to draw and write in rare, strange moods. Video games are my largest hobby, followed closely by meditation and re-reading wonderful books of enlightenment. I am 24 and happily married, and I work at McDonald's. My attitude is aimed towards being accepting, understanding, purposeful (especially in speech), and respectful, but it often looks a lot like silly and foolish, loud and funny, well intended but poorly executed smile small steps.
Thank you for having me in your community. Namaste!

Hi, I'm Robbie. I like video games, anime, super sentai, and writing. Sometimes I like drawing. I have been with my fiancee for about 4-5 years now.
Spiritually, I'm a Christian heretic and quite comfortable with it. I write articles for Palmtreegarden.org and Aeonbyte blog. I also serve as an elder for the Gnostic group, Alpha and Omega, which is just a fancy way of saying I can lead a group discussion in a pinch. I know that there is much I do not know and look forward to learning form the discussions in this guild.

Sneaker Pimps rmcdra Hi, I'm Robbie. I like video games, anime, super sentai, and writing. Sometimes I like drawing. I have been with my fiancee for about 4-5 years now.

I know that there is much I do not know and look forward to learning form the discussions in this guild. Hello Robbie it is nice to met you. Welcome. I wish you and your fiance lots of happiness and luck. Interesting choice of spirituality. I am unfamiliar with that. Well Christian is one who follows the teaching of Jesus of Nazareth. I am a heretic for the following reasons: I don't believe the God described in the New Testament is the same being being described in the Old Testament or at least the Old Testament give a very tribalistic and skewed view of this being. I accept the Sethian creation mythos which describes the fall of Sophia, her fall after giving birth to Yaldaboth, the blind god. Yaldaboth as the builder of the world (note that builder and creator are different), and that humankind partaking of the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge of Moral Good and Evil was a first step to reuniting with God. I believe in the emanation cosmology in that there are different "levels" of understanding of God with Yaldaboth being the lowest form of understanding and a signal of there being a "glitch in the system". I believe in the pre-existence of the spirit and that is of divine origin being a seed of Sophia. I believe in the matter-spirit dualism. I believe in salvation by gnosis which involves seeking and coming to know of the Christ spirit which is a window into the unknowable Father-Mother. Finally I believe in a distinction between Christ and Jesus, with Jesus being a man and Christ being his divine counterpart, higher-self which descended down to finished the process that Sophia set in motion by having us eat the fruit of the tree of knowledge. Salvation in this path is a journey of seeking Truth and coming to know it personally so one can leave Yaldaboth's world and reunite with God. Faith is necessary as a first step but it is through various experiences that the process can be completed. I also accept reincarnation as possible and if it does exist, it would be less ideal and be like "restarting a video game". I also accept texts from the Nag Hammadi Library as scripture. I hope that illuminates my path a little bit more. If you need me to clarify anything I will be more than willing to do so.
