So was Moses Indulgent? Was he Under the Influenced of Hallucinogenic Plant Extract?
So was Moses under the influence of D.M.T and hence is his experience of the ever burning bush, hearing Gods voice etc nothing but hallucinations of a Junkie? Should we dump the Bible and its preaching as psychotic narratives adopted and promoted as religious belief by the conniving? A conspiracy to control, dominate and exploit? I’m sure this would excite a lot amongst us who love the conspiracy theories. Some of those theories do make sense though. Should one be offended by such a suggestion?
What we need to understand is that any experience which is even remotely connected to a spiritual one, which I believe is the starting point of any religion, will require you to indulge in some form of fantasizing, some form of imagination... disconnected to your everyday version of life.
If you are struggling with your problems or needs, negative emotions or anxieties, worries or tensions, fear, anger, hurt or your survival (of all sorts) all of that is the sum total of your circumstantial reality or what you call life; Your version of life. And for you to get your mind off it and think of anything, at all, may it be poetry or painting, art or sculpture or shamanic practices or simply sitting by the beach and gazing at the ocean, will require you to be indulgent...
In fact the very act of getting your mind off all of what you call life is indulgence! It is indulgence of sorts! I'm sure that you've been told to be practical and not fantasize. So if you are thinking beyond your times, you are being indulgent! If you are thinking beyond your survivalist everyday kind of issues, if you are dreaming beyond your circumstantial reality, you are indulging.
For someone to see an ever burning bush and to have heard God's voice, to have received God's message and his mission in life of communicating (job less suited for a stammering man for sure) to everyone of God's existence and his truth and to set the slaves free and lead them to the promised land... well it is some indulgence for sure! How I wish for such Indulgence myself!!
