“Reincarnation is not about what happens when you die. It is about what happens from moment to moment. Right now, you have moved in some way from who you were just a moment ago. Did you move closer or further from Reality, and do you even know? The power of who you are is in your hands, do not neglect this. Do not let the world decide for you.

“Focus on the compassion within you. It is what you really are, and will guide you to who you wish to be. Only through compassionate love for all things can you find yourself, and begin to consciously determine who you are. There is no other way. Love the world despite what it appears to be, what it thinks it is. Love the world for what it truly is. Use the strength of your compassion to take on the suffering of the world, and use the strength of your unconditional love to overcome it. Then you will see… there is only Love.

“You are all glorious beings. Each one of you will one day fully awaken to the Love that you are. It is inevitable. You cannot escape from your Self. The beauty of your Being eclipses all else. The Fire within you, that is me, as the Fire within me is truly you. I am telling you nothing your heart has not sung to you endlessly. Love. Love unconditionally, without fear, without desire. Love because you are Love. Know this, and know joy.”
~The Caterpillar Sutra

The heart of Caterpillaritarianism. Non-action. Which I have always thought translates better as non-reaction. Don’t react to what the world does, instead consciously and willfully love all things unconditionally.

Thank you for that interesting perspective. You should feel free to call yourself a Sitakaliist, if you really wish to, as it is just a name. As an individual, your beliefs will inevitably be very different from mine. The thing is, my spirituality changes with me. It started out more agnostic, and now I am an atheist. I see things differently, but I am still a Sitakaliist, because Sitakaliism is still the belief system of Sandy (me). This post lists the fundamental philosophies, which have not changed. But some of the more spiritual aspects have. The fundamental philosophies of Sitakaliism (which I call Duality) are probably very similar to the fundamental philosophies that a lot of people hold, yet their overall spirituality may be very different.

For example, I worship the goddesses Sita (which is a hybrid of a book character and other aspects that I like) and Kali, in a symbolic way. I have other gods/goddesses and very personal rituals. I guess what I’m getting at is that the whole thing is very personal for me. I like to share my journey with others to encourage them to find their own path. However, I’m not going to copyright the name of the spirituality, because that would be silly and propertarian. So if you or anyone else wishes to use that word, just remember that it is a different Sitakaliism from mine, because you have come to your own beliefs through your own path.

I hope this helps?

if the spirit is part of being, and the being is inevitably shared with others, then why not the spirit? you discovered and created (perhaps it was always there and you found it) sitakalism, it freed you, it opened you.if it resonates with others, then that is not blind on their parts. in a world so full of pressure to conform, to resonate with this truly no-conforming spirituality is the beacon of self-awareness. there would therefore be nothing “blind” to someone following sitakalist.

you may be concerned that they are following you, and not the spirituality, perhaps. being the creator and founder, this is a genuine concern. but just because you opened the door that you discovered does not mean when others walk through the door behind you that they are following you. they have a choice, always, and you did not force them.

if you are saying that people should find for themselves what motivates them, and they find this, did they follow blindly?

no two people will ever be the same, so even someone else was to call themselves a sitakalist, they would never be the same as you and your faith as a sitakalist.

it sounds like you do not want this to become an organized spiritual practice with rules and customs. of course that ignores that the bright side of rules and customs are the basis of tradition and faith in the things that you do, that they work and they are good (good as in gives you faith) and therefore many people do them. it just sounds like you do not want the baggage of the spiritual heirarchy which says that you have to do certain things spiritually because they are better. but that is not central to sharing your faith with others and having other people adopt it. you could simply stress these components when you welcome other people to embrace sitakalism on their spiritual paths.

I do not believe in leaving things in God’s hands. For one, I do not believe in God in a supernatural sense, I believe that god is the universe, and all of the observable forces of nature. Every action we take affects others; similarly, every action we don’t take affects others. To stand idly by while injustice occurs can be just as violent as helping perpetuate injustice.

So if by “leave things in God’s hands,” you mean humans take a moral stand on the side of justice and love, then yes, I agree. If you mean we must step aside and allow whatever will happen to happen, I don’t agree…but then you don’t seem to agree with that either, considering your stance on fighting against evil.

I also think that God help those who help themselves so its good to have your own spiritual growth rather thatn relyin on others and get cheated in the end.

I feel their are two kind of spiritualities. One is of being a doer. We humanbeings can do what ever we want and ultimately are liable for our actions and reactions. Second is when we have tried enough and a point comes when we have to leave things in God’s hands and will.

I personally feels that God is there , I feel it when I pray from my heart, someone out there listens.
