-there are three gods; Satan, Jehovah and the One, Source of All.
- the Christ was the One's messanger, sent to reveal the truth. Christ was not the One's son any more than we are.
-Reincarnation is the fate of souls which have not learned to see.
-the light of the One resides within us all (good old fashioned pantheism there).
The list goes on, but that is my central philosophy to life.
No offence,but those are assertions,hopefully formed from some line of thought,not a philosophy in themselves.
EG :
I assert human beings are essentially self interested. That view is called "egoism" .
I assert that human knowledge is imperfect,that EVERYTHING needs to remain open to question. That view is called "skepticism"
Broadly,your list seems familiar,with bits from traditional Hinduism and Christianity,with maybe a little Ouspensky. Such a synthesis is often found amongst theosophists .
As it stands it has all the interest of a telephone book.
