Czidnoma Brass Bell Doll Czidnoma, could you explain what you mean by "burden of proof"? Internal. Meeting a standard for differentiating between one's own impressions and those which come from a god. Bastemhet, maybe it was a poor choice of words. I was grasping at a way to describe pantheons such as the Olympians, the kami, etc. It seemed to me that the difference between them and the omniscient God who I see as the personification of the Universe itself is that the pantheons have a more personal presence on Earth.
So the issue is one of viewing deity as something abstract and permeating the universe versus a view of deity that's more concrete?

Czidnoma AvalonAuggie So the issue is one of viewing deity as something abstract and permeating the universe versus a view of deity that's more concrete? Perfectly stated, thank you. Yes, that's exactly it.
It may help to tell us which deities you are thinking of working with, then, as there are different conceptions of how specific pantheons choose to manifest themselves in this plane of existence, or if they even do so at all.
Quote: Someone told me once that the skin tension after rubbing your hands together quickly is energy that's built up in the hands because of friction. I've always called bullshit on it because the rubbing sensitizes nerve endings. There's no actual pressure, it just feels like there is. But maybe the increased electrical responses of the nerves is the actual energy?
You can feel this pressure between the hands without rubbing them through concentration. I'm not personally too great at energy manipulation, though. What I will say is we can observe only the physical aspect of phenomena but this will not give a complete picture of what's actually occurring.

I don't know if this is what you mean about energy manipulation, but when doing tai chi, some moves have you move your hands across each other, and you can feel your chi there, where otherwise it might be harder. sitting here, now, if i just relax, and place my hands one palm up, one palm down with a little space between, i can feel something there, and you can too!
About gods talking to you...
I don't remember the dream, but upon waking up I was overcome with the need to write about Hades, and tell his story. Some of the things I've been thinking for putting in it are different from the traditional telling of the myths, so I go back and research them, and found that most of them have been suggested as what might have happened, but it's not generally accepted. notably the "rape" of Persephone. But then there's all this about Menthe... I can't decide for certain if he's putting this here, or if it's just a thought form (which I'm inclined to think, why would a god talk to me?). I've been reading... He doesn't have symbols, he doesn't interact with mortals often... so how can you know?
