Understanding and accepting all views and opinions is one of my goals.
We have so many different people on this earth and each having their own opinions and views, makes us special and interesting. I have been trying to understand every distortion, whether it be a political, religious or cultural just to name a few. This choice I have made has lead me to learn more about myself and why I think the way I do.
I watch YouTube, TedTalks and read as much as can to gain knowledge of different opinions on life.
When I see post on sites with comments that are negative and argumentative, I wonder how are we to understand each other if we can not accept another person view or opinion. We should be able to discuss and debate all opinions not condemn them. Years ago when someone said the world is round they were criticized as being a heretic for not being a part of the larger majority of people believing the world was flat. If we would have listened our understanding of the earth would be know more advanced.
The enquistance was a part of our history that put us back 100s of years. The church was against science and the dogma of religious beliefs set us back. Let us not let other dogmas do the same today.
We have a people who love football, they go to games with friends and family. Groups get together and have football parties but when someone likes a team other than the majority in that group we sometimes turn a fun event into arguments.
I am updating this currently but the image was very important to share for me.

This was a very important statement by one of the most influential people in the world.
I am a believer in working together in harmony on this planet.
The Golden Rule, treat others as you want to be treated. Why would that not apply to the Earth?
We need to work together!

How to study the law of one
I read/ listened to the Law of One a series of 106 conversations, called sessions over 10 years ago. The material was channeled by L/L Research (Carla Rueckert, Don Elkins, and Jim McCarty) between 1981 and 1984, below was a message from RA which in my opinon is very important to our spirtual growth and understanding of our purpose here.
Exercise One: This is the most nearly centered and useable within your illusion complex. The moment contains love. That is the lesson/goal of this illusion or density. The exercise is to consciously seek that love in awareness and understanding distortions. The first attempt is the cornerstone. Upon this choosing rests the remainder of the life-experience of an entity. The second seeking of love within the moment begins the addition. The third seeking powers the second, the fourth powering or doubling the third. As with the previous type of empowerment, there will be some loss of power due to flaws within the seeking in the distortion of insincerity. However, the conscious statement of self to self of the desire to seek love is so central an act of will that, as before, the loss of power due to this friction is inconsequential.
Exercise Two: The universe is one being. When a mind/body/spirit complex views another mind/body/spirit complex, see the Creator. This is an helpful exercise.
Exercise Three: Gaze within a mirror. See the Creator.
Exercise Four: Gaze at the creation which lies about the mind/body/spirit complex of each entity. See the Creator. The foundation or prerequisite of these exercises is a predilection towards what may be called meditation, contemplation, or prayer. With this attitude, these exercises can be processed. Without it, the data will not sink down into the roots of the tree of mind, thus enabling and ennobling the body and touching the spirit.
