Mate.  

I already said again and again that the consciousness in human beings is like an iceberg.
A part is above the water but the big chunk is below so all human beings have to do is to
work very hard in the effort to bring the hidden part above in order to fulfill the scope of life
and to reach the goal of life.
I am no exception.
I also have to learn a lot.
At the same time i feel I am in very good hands.
My spiritual teacher take care of me as far as I follow his teachings.
Right?

1) A dogma can be a single so called principle.
It doesn't have to be a set of principles.
2) It doesn't have to be laid down.
Anybody can express a dogma without such a dogma having to be laid down.
3) It doesn't have to be express by an authority.
Anybody can create a dogma.

Hi Rik .. I have just ploughed  through fifty odd pages and it suddenly dawned on me why you are having difficulty seeing reason .... You keep banging your head on stuff and it is probably doing damage  to your head and if your "God" did ever exist in your head he is probably dead by now or severely damaged            

Maybe a nice cup of tea and use a pillow rather than a brick wall and your keyboard and maybe then we can have a nice little chat about your imaginary friend

Little Rik is just the best troll around this forum. Whatever discussion he is in, he always replies, in a way that does not break any rules. His replies are just enough to keep an audience.

However, the people replying to him, should not refrain from giving reason over his bullshit. He thinks its all about him, but there are others reading the thread and taking something out of the replies. Why are we feeding the troll? Because others might find reason where little rik as no regard.

A lot of people misuse language as you say.

The term "atheism" originated from the Greek ἄθεος (atheos), meaning "without god
Right?

So let us stick to the original meaning.
All the rest is incorrect.

Right?

If people would leave the original meaning alone we wouldn't have religions, hatred and many wars.
Religions are a cancer born out of the vandalization of spirituality.
Jesus, Buddha, Shiva, Krishna never teach religion in fact they were against dogma which religions are based upon.
But not only religions have vandalized pure and clean ideals.
A lot of other ideals have also been vandalized.
Arts, music and everything else.
Take the rock music, the metal music and all what our kids are listening these days.
All this are vandalized form of pure music.
That is why we should live the original meaning alone.

Two faced Rik, changing his standards whenever convenient. Aka "Making it up as he goes along."

You got a little big mental problem yog.  

I certainly said that the original meaning should be left alone.
At the same time I said that as far as someone turn the original meaning into something else
then I have no choice but to rebut and challenge that idea.

Are you that stupid that you see a contradiction in that?

Get real yog and get some vitamins for your brain because you badly need them.

I can challenge all those ideas any time any place.
No problem with that and no problem with who will came out as the winner.  

Yoga is the original while those who came later are not.
In fact most of them are bad imitations.
