I can't update my Salmon on the Thorns webpage from this old
out of town laptop so I will make this statement here for now,
and will update the webpage when I get back to town on Tuesday.
I promise to not start a new religion, and forbid anyone else
from starting a new religion in my name while I am alive and
even after I am dead.
While I was confirmed Catholic, I long ago renounced that
and currently consider myself an individual neopagan.
I promise to not join any organized religion again.
It turns out I had to come to town tonight after all due to my
brother needing to fo to Emergency, so I did update my
Salmon on the Thorns webpage:
Here is what I now have at the bottom of https://www.nfld.com//~dalton/deities.html :
I promise to not start a new religion or denomination, and forbid anyone
else from starting a new religion or denomination in my name while I am
alive and even after I am dead. I also forbid anyone from considering me
to be a deity to them while I am alive (and in terms of the main stack no living human is accepted as deity to another living human) and even after
I am dead. Also I am sure that I am not the return of Jesus or any other
past avatar type, but am just the latest in a long line of such avatar types, and think that avatar types and devi types go to the beyond-afterlife/heaven/nirvana after they die and do not reincarnate, but again past avatar types and past devi types are working from the beyond afterlife through my popthroughs.
While I was confirmed Catholic, I long ago renounced that
and currently consider myself an individual neopagan.
I promise to not join any organized religion again.
However, I have also promised
my deities that after I come out of my low/wilderness years I will
research druidism, traditional witchcraft, and celtic shamanism
and may or may not then adjust my individual belief system.
But my essential messages, which are non-religious,
are for my people, the human species globally
(or if evolution has occurred, the human species group, globally),
to logically consider and accept or reject, and are backed by
my similarity to past avatar types.
Since some might have issue with the term avatar type, I edited
the following slightly rambling paragraph just before the above
three paragraphs on
https://www.nfld.com//~dalton/deities.html :
I'll eventually put back subpages on species someones and my
minor deities (including Jesus and Taliesin), and on afterlife
and beyond afterlife (which may be like Christian purgatory
and heaven or Hindu afterlife and nirvana, and where there
can be reincarnation from the first but not the second),
and on soul, soul alignment, and avatar-2 (avatar type, like me,
which means one similar to past figures who have been called avatars,
who thus were similar to me, and who can align at least temporarily
with any other someone, given permission of that other someone,
which I relate to stories of Krishna making himself small or large)
and avatar-1 (current avatar, who is aligned with one other someone).
But I haven’t been detecting these current avatars lately, and it could
be that my past such detections were delusional, e.g. Con O'Brien
of The Irish Descendants with Amergin. Also I am open
to discussion of a possible new term for avatar type.
I have suggested Opener of the Way before but that has been
used in other contexts. Also I define devi type as the main
human inspirer of the avatar type (e.g. Sita for Rama, and Radha for
Krishna, and Mary Magdalene for Jesus) but they are not
necessarily romantically involved (e.g. Krishna is said to have
married Rukmini and Satyabhama and not Radha by some sources).
Again I am open to discussion of a possible new term for devi type.
