True or false: Beings in misery worship a transcendent deity while beings in bliss worship a emanate deity?

"There is a direct connection between the words economy and ecology. In fact, they come from the same Greek word, oikos, meaning house or household. At one time it was universally recognized that in order to have a sustainable economy within the individual household, one had to have a sustainable relationship with the larger "household" of the Earth.

If we trace the Greek word oikos back to its Indo-European root we find the word, weik, from which we get the Anglo-Saxon, wicca, or in current English, witch. Contrary to our popular mythological distortions, this association reveals a time when witches, the powerful females of the clan, were in charge of managing their household economies through their spiritual relationship with the Earth. This was seen as the ultimate source of power and wealth.

The recognition of this primary bond with our Mother Earth became expressed in the Tantric scriptures as the principle of Artha, meaning both "Earth" and "Wealth". This basic principle represents the deep-seated feelings of connectedness, security and trust. If one is in accord with the principle of Artha, one realizes on an emotional level the organic and primal bond that exists between oneself and the Earth, and every being that lives upon Her.

Many aboriginal people all over the world are absolutely horrified when they witness the massive destruction of the environment, caused by their so called "advanced" neighbors. This is because these "primitive" people are still living with their bond to the Earth intact. The impact would be similar to that of a small child, watching his or her mother being killed. The loss is not just of one particular individual in the child's life, but a collapse of the entire world."

Update:

"Watching a child play, you can observe how the eyes light up and the whole being suddenly becomes present. You can almost see the billion neural connections being formed; the mind weaving together associations and information into a complex neural network.

Without any books or teachers, the child is learning physics, the laws of gravity and motion, how objects fit together, and how they come apart, as well as their shapes, textures and colors. The child is exploring the almost infinite wonders of his or her environment.

This is the flow of Life's creative energies manifesting in a natural and unobstructed way. Human beings have always sought to enlarge their fields of perception, to extend their range of conscious awareness, and to explore new areas of understanding, not because we have to, or out of a grim sense of duty, but rather because this is the way we have fun. This is our greatest joy. And this is Moksha.

Update 2:

"As this process matures in the life of an individual, spirituality is perceived as the conscious surrendering to the continuous unfolding process of creative expression. He or she then becomes a conscious participant in the Cosmic Play of Creation. Creativity is seen as the celebration of the Spirit in our lives, whereby we bless ourselves, one another and the Earth.

The spiritually mature individual becomes so integrated with this sense of creative play, that he or she may become involved in birthing something unique and wonderful in the world, be it an actual child or some creative expression of the hands or head. Nothing in Creation is insignificant or without a purpose. And so it is with any act of our creative efforts, no matter how small. This is how we nourish ourselves and others. This is how we all become more wealthy. As the Divine eventually becomes perceived as a Lover, the spiritually mature individual who is bonded to the Creative Principles of Life, is able to aba

Update 3:

"As the Divine eventually becomes perceived as a Lover, the spiritually mature individual who is bonded to the Creative Principles of Life, is able to abandon himself or herself to the meditation of sexual play. He or she feels the freedom to express these creative energies in an infinite number of ways. To truly liberate the sexual energy of one's body and mind, is to liberate the creative energies of the Spirit in one's life."

    I don't get your whole question per se, but I do know that in pagan times, witches did have a powerful spiritual role to play. They were basically a midwife, a priestess, a doctor, a spiritual adviser, and a shaman all in one.
