We are talking philosophies of Buddhaism here, bro... same as TM and other meditation.
And last time I checked Freemasons and Rosicrucians weren't religions.
That, plus were have managed to all be cool about it and find common ground not differences, unless of course you are looking to cause some sort of friction yourself.

Well I did say that the metaphysical and physical aspects of thinking do feed off each other. But in the end I think you're just listing some non-causative correlations. Sure a scientist or engineer could be a Rosicrucian or a Freemason. There are many more examples of great thinkers having all sorts of beliefs about imaginary beings, supernatural powers and such. I still don't get the point.
Do you honestly think I could learn equally well or better about our physical world by reading a book about Tarot than reading a book about String Theory, which is the leading scientific theory attempting to account for most all physical observables, both atomic and macro? (honest question, not sarcastic).
I don't belittle metaphysical ideas, especially not Buddhist, but you'd need to give me more reason to believe their accuracy than just groups of correlated events and ideas.
just a friendly warning, it is a good thread, and once judeo christian gods get brought up, threads usually go downhill and get closed, don't see how pointing out that fact or wanting the thread to stay open is remotely frictional.
no sir no friction, http://askafreemason.org/topten/index.htm look at question 3.
when actually we are each are own thinking GOD' making this world filled with gods living on tha ultimate god and that would be a place without emotion that treats us all tha same 'which would be EARTH
Tha real temple of god imo is on and in tha side of each of our heads'
I had thought about joining the masons at one point, but I am unwilling to profess belief in a god, and so I am unwelcome from what I read.
I'm a theological atheist, and a philosophical buddhist.
buddhism is compatible with most any belief system.
well pls read my post a little ahead of that where i mention i do not subscribe to that theory.
me too

Wisdom must be gathered not given. I have opened a door for you and it is up to you to choose whether or not to explore what is on the other side. This is the Tokers Den and I assure you nothing will be settled here, as it is part of the very nature of man to define things in the nature of his experience. I cannot see through your my eyes, nor you through mine. If this were not the case war would have ceased to exist long ago.
I prefer to agree to disagree.

My only point, by the way, returning to the thread topic is if we're going to divide up existence into dimensions, I'm going to question the accuracy of arbitrary divisions and tend to agree with ones that have the support of lots of people who have studied the topic of the basic compositions of the physical world. If we don't stick to scientific rigor in these questions, then we have no way to judge between competing beliefs about any number of fantastical beings and levels of existence.
thats tha beauty of thinking' it enables us to come to our own theorys and conclusions on things whether rite or wrong to another. imo
I can't wait to read hawking's new book
