Does practicing the Dharma matter more than believing in the religion?

God, Christ and heaven are the very same Nirvana, and the attainment of such. It is the same physical truth that humans all over history have formed religions from. Gautama teaches how you, as you stand and breathe, may achieve a state of consciousness so that you too may see firsthand the origin of all movement in this billion world universe. To experience that specific moment in your own life is enlightenment. To understand with your own mind how life works. What happens at death, where you've been and what you are.

It cannot be explained, but if you detach yourself from seeing all else, the only thing left to observe is the Source.

Meditating in solitude for 40 days is not easy in today's fast paced society. So many are synthesizing and using D M T and not understand their experience.

There is only one truth, it's all around you and no one group, belief or cult can own it.
