While the teachings of shamanism say that it is necessary to use and develop reason as much as possible and at the same time try to feel as much as possible, to develop feeling as much as possible, religion preaches exactly the opposite.
Shamanism and religion have always been and are built on opposite philosophies. While religion leads a person to blindness, shamanism leads a person to knowledge.
Bookstores' shelves are breaking under the weight of an immense number of book titles. As a former Christian who grew up in a strongly religious environment, I say the mystery is that among the vast amount of religious literature, you would search in vain for a book about feelings, emotions, and how to develop sensitivity. That is strange!! In contrast, psychology addresses this topic quite a lot. It's an interesting and peculiar paradox.
Using and developing one's feelings is a taboo subject in the environment of religion and the church, which is deliberately not talked about.
Religion, at its very foundation, forbids a person from using their feelings, it forbids what is natural in a person, it suppresses the naturalness in a person. Religion teaches a person faith, blind faith, it teaches a person to be blind, to believe blindly, to believe blindly in primitive dogmas, and this is in direct contradiction to a person's feelings.
If believers did not suppress their feelings, they would very quickly realize that religion does not give them energy, but on the contrary, it drains their energy. (The religious egregore of God always takes more energy from a person than it gives).
The most basic and highest dogma of Christianity and Islam is to suppress thinking and feeling, which, on the contrary, is the basis of the teachings of shamanism.
I cannot understand how some believers who are 65 years old and have spent their entire lives in fanatical Christian communities, see for themselves that religion gives them nothing, they must feel how religion takes their energy, and yet they are so blinded that even after 65 years of their lives they are not able to come to their senses and still say how wonderful religion is. It is very painful for me to look at such totally miserable and enslaved people, who are total psychological wrecks, who wallow in the filth of religious excrement and call it the most sacred things. And even after many decades, they cannot come to their senses and see how religion enslaves them.
Only one type of feeling, emotion, is developed in believers. And this feeling is only fear . Fear of the preacher, fear of the authority of the priest, the authority of the church, fear of whether I will be saved, fear of whether I will go to hell. Fear is the only motivation to be a believer.
Although the Bethel sect (which is the largest and most manipulative world Christian sect) places great emphasis on emotions and the emotional experience of faith, here emotions are only slavishly hypnotically abused for religious indoctrination and manipulation. While the Bethel sect specializes in the blind and blinded pursuit of positive emotions, in shamanism emotions and feelings mean something exactly the opposite: feelings and emotions are used as a sensory organ to identify what is positive and what is negative, what is right and what is wrong.
The Bethel sect is reportedly one of the fastest-growing Pentecostal Christian churches in the world. The manipulative techniques of this sect seem psychologically too refined and cunning to be just some innocent Christian project. In my opinion, the entire Bethel project is the work of top psychiatrists and psychologists, who may have done it at the behest of some secret service. The Bethel sect does not have much in common with Christianity; the whole sect seems to me like a project and the work of top psychologists.
What are the benefits of developing your sensitivity?
Developing one's feelings is one of the basic teachings of shamanism. Feelings make a person stop wallowing in the excrement of negative thoughts. No person who has well-developed feelings will be a fan of alternative media, which do nothing but fill people with hatred, anger, frustration, divide and incite people against each other.
If a person tries to feel, they see how negative thoughts destroy them. People do not realize how powerful they are as beings, how their thoughts create reality.
A person who can feel will always feel a resistance to religion and will always feel that religion is taking energy from them.
A person who can feel can significantly help people from whom negative energies are felt and encourage them to think positively.
A person who can feel can avoid people who energetically parasitize you, who suck your energy, who are full of negative energy. Thus, a person ceases to be a blind, exploited slave.
Religion suppresses reason and thinking in a person.
These are direct quotes from the highest authoritative teaching of Catholics: the Catechism of the Catholic Church:Religion or faith is, at its core, about the complete suppression and destruction of reason – without it, faith is not possible. The Catechism, from the perspective of believers, states this harsh truth without mincing words: A clearly "anti-Christian" element in the Catechism. This is a quote from the Catechism: Quote from the Catechism: 143 By faith, man completely submits his reason and his will to God. With his whole being, he gives assent to God who reveals. This response of man to God who reveals is called in Holy Scripture "obedience of faith."
The authors of the catechism do not hide the fact that religion is about slavish obedience and subordination: Quote from the catechism: I. Obedience of faith 144 To obey (ob-audire: to listen to) in faith means to freely submit to the word heard, because its truthfulness is guaranteed by God, who is Truth itself.
