“Easter occurs on different dates each year because, like the Jewish Passover, it is based upon the vernal equinox, that dramatic moment when the hours of the day-light and the hours of darkness at last draw parallel and then the light finally and triumphantly wins out. Thus Easter is always fixed as the first Sunday after the first full moon following the spring equinox. It's a cosmic, solar, and lunar event as deeply rooted in religious traditions originating from sun-god worship as one could conceivably imagine.” YearsFirstsDifferentMomentsLightLastsWinningHoursReligiousDarknessSunImagineEventsMoonWorshipSpringDrawsTraditionFollowingFixedDramaticSundayCosmicRootedEasterParallelsFull MoonReligious TraditionsEquinoxSun God Author:Tom Harpur
“The plain fact is religion must die for mankind to live. The hour is getting very late to be able to indulge in having key deciscions made by religious people. By irrationalists.

“This is the process of Self realization about which Eastern mystics have written. It is the process of salvation to which much Western theology has devoted itself. This is a day-to-day, hour-to-hour, moment-to-moment act of supreme consciousness. It is a choosing and a re-choosing every instant. It is ongoing creation. Conscious creation. Creation with a purpose. It is using the tools of creation we have discussed, and using them with awareness and sublime intention.” InspirationalSelfMomentsPurposeProcessHoursReligiousConsciousnessWrittenAwarenessCreationConsciousToolsSalvationIntentionWesternSupremeTheologySelf RealizationRealizationInstantDevotedDay To DaySublimeEasternOngoing Book:The Complete Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue Source: The Complete Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue
