Is it normal to live a spiritual life?

64% Normal
11 Comments

I live a spiritual life as a Buddhist but not much spirituality is going on without my Tibetan Buddhist books. I meditate, follow the Middle Way, but I'm also an atheist, I believe God is very improbable, but I'm living the spirituality. I don't drink alcohol, I don't eat meat, I'm considering liquitarianism. Celibacy would be appropriate, I feel liberated giving up a life of luxury. Is this normal?

    It's normal for some people, not normal for others: if it feels normal to you, proceed.

    Your use of the word improbable is also a tell. You should never gamble.

    Stop flooding this site with your lunatic blabbering.

    well, unfortuantely it is not a normal thing to see. Spiritual life nowadays is increasinly rare. Has christian i take really serious my faith in christ and god, and have a hard time to find people who also do, even inside the church.
    Well, has a christian i cannot tell you this is the best way, but hey, i wont preach for you here. If that brighs you peace, then go for it

    My dad is a really spiritual person. I think it is why he is so calm no matter what happens. I don't understand why god would let bad stuff happen if he is all powerful?

    I don't think any users here are privy to more accurate stats on those practicing Tibetan Buddhism than the info publicly available.

    You're saying you can't believe in Buddha Without books. You're missing the mark there.

    Are you the person that only meditates for ten minutes and doesn't understand why it doesn't work?

      It works but without instruction I'm just plain ignorant.
