[quote=Anonymous]I was raised Jewish and still identify as such, though it’s nearly all cultural (I had my Bat Mitzvah and plan to do that with my daughter, but we are not a very religious family). Anyway, my first truly spiritual experience was when I was living in rural Thailand. A monk taught a few of us how to meditate. I swear to you I saw my third eye and felt the presence of some sort of power connecting all of us together. I have also felt exceptionally strong connections to those who have died (relatives, but also people I did not know when they were alive). I know that sounds insane, but it’s helped me believe in souls that outlive our material bodies. So I do not believe in the typical Judeo-Christian God, but I do believe in souls and in a power that connects everyone. It’s a vaguely Eastern philosophy, but doesn’t fit into any box.[/quote]
