Belief
A topic on a site was about gurus, talking about people with ideas and concepts, such as the Celestine Prophecy. While the Celestine Prophecy is fiction, it contains some valuable insights into how perhaps we ought to view life and maybe even how to grow in a real sense.
And somebody mentioned, in talking about gods of the past, that maybe, if someone got the people to believe in them, such as the Pharaohs of ancient Egypt did, the subject of all those beliefs might actually rise about normal human capabilities.
I try not to mention that possibility in public - we have quite enough wacko sects and cults out there already. All we need is for nut-jobs to get the idea they can get a few folk to ‘believe’ in them and it makes them God. Scary idea isn’t it?
It was something I thought long and hard about as I looked into ancient Egypt - that maybe the reason for the God-cult for Pharaohs had a basis in reality - that the people honestly believed their pharaoh was an incarnation of Ra or Atum and this made the Pharaoh (and his sister, something normally ‘overlooked’ by the male-centric historians) something more than mere human.
If we are energy beings or even something more ineffable such as fields of Consciousness, then the belief of others could easily ’strengthen’ or otherwise alter a field - and fields don’t need direct contact, they can operate at a distance, something for which we still do not have any explanation, let alone an adequate one.
If all the ‘fields of Consciousness’ that make up a group get together with one undistracted mind, of what might the focus of that group be capable? Maybe the only reason we don’t see it in daily life is the congregations are too distracted by the outside world to truly focus? Might that be the very reason for the ongoing media and entertainment blitzes? If the Christ came back, would He be more than a 30 second wonder before the people who might empower Him ‘changed the channel?’
