If I want to be a God to my 12 meters square, I take Nicorette. If I want to be the Almighty, I smoke dope. In another word I am the product of the chemical reactions in my brain.
Therefore I create God in my [] (own) image. I don't know if there is an entity call God. I however acknowledge the existence of the Force or the Infinite Intelligence.
While God is a human creation, the Force or the Infinite Intelligence are always there. Otherwise where does inspirations come from? As much as we need a better understanding of what it means to be human, we also need a new meaning of our understanding of who or what is God.
Notice the quality of my writing? Well this is due to Nicorette.
Twice I mentioned that the blogs are my thoughts in motion. Hence as I progress on daily basis, I develop various models base on the thoughts I have at the point of inception. Today definitely there is a clear embarkation between my thoughts without Nicorette and my thought with Nicorette.
Can I say then that Nicorette is a karomah? It certainly works like a charm. However if we look at evidence, then my thought on God and No God is just a matter of chemical action and reaction. There is no celestial revelation.
I bet Moses and Muhammad were somehow effected by their brain chemicals as well.
Everything is a blessing. The fact that I experienced mental illness is a sign for me to be able to appreciate the above notion first hand. That the God Question is merely a surge of neurotransmitters in our brain.
If I follow the argument to where it leads then I say the ultimate answer to God and No God lies on our ability as humans to [] (give) meaning to our surrounding. We are the defining factor. The Force is always there. However it takes us humans to acknowledge its existence. Which means the power to decide whether the Force is God or not rest upon the humans. That makes human the supreme being, not the Force.
Same with Nicorette. Although Nicorette makes me feel that I am God in my 12 meters square, it is me who decide to take Nicorette in. The power to decide is the real power here. Should I choose not to have any Nicorette, I am reduced to merely being a man fully functioning.
Hence I become a God to my 12 meters square because I CHOOSE to be a God. Same with all the superlatives. I can be any of it. In this case I wanted to be humble. Thus I become the Domestic Rat.
So do we discount the idea of God? Certainly not because we still have the Force or the Infinite Intelligence. Therefore God and No God [] (is) still relevant.
We should not discount the notion that Nicorette and dope are the causal effects for us (me especially) to experience the meaning to be God. Those are the enablers. Sort like the key that opens the door.
However we also know that in the end it's not the Nicorette no the dope but the end product; which is dopamine surge. Is dopamine then the magic elixir to become God?
If we know this for sure then all we need to do is to keep producing dopamine through other means. Diet and exercise are the most natural way.
We know that things do not happen without the Law of Cause and Effect..Therefore we have the what and how. Can we then address the who and why? That we are gods because we have the ability to decide who we gonna be? Certainly this privilege is exclusively human. We humans can decide to be God or merely a man fully functioning just by being the person who decides on what and how we invoke our neurotransmitters.
Henceforth today I decide to be the God of my 12 meters square. Therefore I take Nicorette. Should I choose to just be a man fully functioning, I completely abstain from taking any form of substance.
The basic question then is no longer God and No God but what kind of god am I?
This realization is not limited to Nicorette and dope alone. We can achieve this through food and how we position our body. To Suzuki Roshi it is zazen. If zazen is anything and Zen is everything then we can become God the moment we accept ourselves as God and man fully functioning.
This song is on air:
I hope I had managed to convince you that there is God and that God is us!

We have exactly 30 minute to go. Let's go back to the fundamental. In the end EVERYTHING COUNTS BUT NOTHING MATTERS.
We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time.
I can only speak from my personal experience. My take is as I told you we are ONE and we are MANY. Just accept that we are gods. There are many ways we become gods (what and how). What counts is we know who we are and what is out purpose (who and why).
I am who I am and we all are who we are. Just embrace that notion and DO GOOD and DO NO HARM. It's about taking the right action.
Too many thoughts will paralyze you. Don't think, just do.
I am personally convinced with my own awakening. Now is to awaken the rest of the people. If that is not possible then just lead the life of a Bodhisattva.
For things to change I must change first.
That is my pledge to myself. I am not here to the change the world. I am merely sharing my journey with you so you too can realize your true potential.

Here is your lullaby my darling:
Goodnight baby...
