The Doctrine of Love and the Chill of Woke Spirituality
What are the proponents of love? Are they a harmless bunch of Romantics demanding freedom of worship for their individual ideas?
Hello and welcome to the Ancient wisdom modern mind podcast and today I would like discuss the “Doctrine of Love” and how love and woke culture are mutually reflective of each other and how this influence has over taken spirituality, making spirituality nothing more than a new form of polytheistic religion.
We've all heard this philosophy of love promoted by spiritual organizations, and love appears to have become a blanket phrase that the crowd now yells. We are informed that heavenly love and forgiveness are required to rescue us. That we must love others as much as we love ourselves, and that we must forgive. First and foremost, we must forgive anybody or anything who has injured, harmed, or damaged us in any manner.
Spirituality is a way of life; it is the exercise of critical thought in the face of impending societal limits through the practical application of philosophical principles. This is what differentiates the philosopher from the yogi, mystic, sorcerer, or seer. The philosophical journey concludes with critical reasoning, whereas the spiritual journey uses these critical notions. That is why the Daoist’s referred to it as the Way, or Action without Intention, implying action without passion or reward. It is the "Failure to Act."
The doctrine of Romanticism is characterized by its emphasis on emotionalism and a fluid moralism, and to quote Immanuel Kant” Romantic philosophy is a pseudo philosophy in which one is entitled “not to work”, and that one only heeds to and enjoys the oracle in oneself in order to take complete possession of that wisdom towards which philosophy aims.”
This is a short idea on the topic. Please listen to the podcast until the end to understand my thoughts on the Love Doctrine, and I hope that this post will stimulate your own critical thoughts, and that this also encourages you to explore and learn about yourself and to continue your journey.
