    Spirituality Spot Found in Brain

    People with less active Me-Definers are more likely to lead spiritual lives, reports the study.

    The God Spot

    Scientists, philosophers and atheists have long argued that God and

    spirituality are constructs of the human mind, although that opinion

    generally hasn't been a popular one. After centuries of bloody holy wars

    and fierce theological dispute, the controversy of the Creator's

    existence has taken a strange new turn: humanity may finally have

    uncovered tangible evidence that the phenomenon of religious faith is

    all in our heads.

    Spirituality Core Found in Brain

    Recent studies of neuroimaging have connected the frontal, parietal, and

    temporal cortexes with the individual's spiritual experiences.

    Unfortunately, what has been seriously lacking previously has been the

    causative link between the spirituality and the brain's network. This

    problem has now been solved with Dr. Cosimo Urgesi from the University

    of Udine in Italy finally demonstrating the world's first causative link

    in his symptom-lesion mapping study.

Einstein formula "E=mc2" says that every thing in the universe is a form of energy. http://www.aip.org/history/einstein/emc1.htm There is a single, intelligent Consciousness that pervades the entire Universe - the Universal Mind. http://www.mind-your-reality.com/universal_mind.ht...

    Maybe but there is no Logic to support this proposition. It really is not philosophically legitimate.

    Philosophy is about lucidity. Using the term God to describe positive energy is not very clear. God has too many conotations. It is a vague inappropriate term in philosophy.

    Could "God" be a dimension of positive thought energy originating in ourselves, implying that we, ourselves, are in actual fact the "God" to which we are referring? Or not?

    Although awesome in power, the star we know as the sun is just one among billions of similar massive sources of energy in the universe. What is the ultimate origin of all this power? Referring to the stars, the Bible writer Isaiah says: “Raise your eyes high up and see. Who has created these things? It is the One who is bringing forth the army of them even by number, all of whom he calls even by name. Due to the abundance of dynamic energy, he also being vigorous in power, not one of them is missing.”—Isaiah 40:26.

    When contemplating the sheer power of the stars, we may feel overwhelmed—and even more so when we consider their Creator. However, the Bible encourages us: “Draw close to God, and he will draw close to you.” (James 4:8) Yes, the Creator of the earth and its abundant energy resources, the one who gave us the spark of life, can be found by those who look for him.—Genesis 2:7; Psalm 36:9.

    God is Nothing that you Can Imagine, or are able too.

    Positive thought energy is not from God, but from within the 'Self'.

    In perspective; God can be anything you want 'it' too be.

    "Because children have abounding vitality, because they are in spirit  fierce and free, therefore they want things repeated and unchanged. They always say, "Do it again"; and the grown-up person does it again until he is nearly dead. For grown-up people are not strong enough to exult in monotony. But perhaps God is strong enough to exult in monotony. It is possible that God says every morning, "Do it again" to the sun; and every evening, "Do it again" to the moon. It may not be automatic necessity that makes all daisies alike; it may be that God makes every daisy separately, but has never got tired of making them. It may be that He has the eternal appetite of infancy; for we have sinned and grown old, and our Father is younger than we."

    G.K. Chesterton

    God creating the universe is much like you thinking a thought..a synapse..

    Well I don't think so... I believe God is a soul, like the other entities. Indeed, God doesn't give you possitive energy or something. He can help you in getting it, but now he's not like that.

    I see God as consciousness, the seat of thought.

    YES, it could very well be and always thinking positive is very good for you in all things in your life. Mike

    Partly, as that would only be one of infinite expressions of God, because God is omnipresent and not limited to anything.
