And he always answered: I believe in the God of Spinoza. Baruch de Spinoza was a Dutch philosopher considered one of the great rationalists of 17th century philosophy, along with Descartes. According to Spinoza, God would say: “Stop praying. I want you to go out into the world and enjoy your life. I want you to sing, have fun and enjoy everything I've made for you. “Stop going into those dark, cold temples that you built yourself and saying they are my house. My house is in the mountains, in the woods, rivers, lakes, beaches. That's where I live and there I express my love for you. “Stop blaming me for your miserable life; I never told you there was anything wrong with you or that you were a sinner, or that your sexuality was a bad thing. Sex is a gift I have given you and with which you can express your love, your ecstasy, your joy. So don't blame me for everything that others made you believe. “Stop reading alleged sacred scriptures that have nothing to do with me. If you can't read me in a sunrise, in a landscape, in the look of your friends, in your son's eyes—you will find me in no book! “Stop asking me, ‘Will you tell me how to do my job?’ Stop being so scared of me. I do not judge you or criticize you, nor get angry or bothered. I am pure love. “Stop asking for forgiveness, there's nothing to forgive. If I made you, I filled you with passions, limitations, pleasures, feelings, needs, inconsistencies, and best of all, free will. Why would I blame you if you respond to something I put in you? How could I punish you for being the way you are, if I'm the one who made you? Do you think I could create a place to burn all my children who behave badly for the rest of eternity? What kind of god would do that? “Respect your peers, and don't give what you don't want for yourself. All I ask is that you pay attention in your life—alertness is your guide. “My beloved, this life is not a test, not a step on the way, not a rehearsal, not a prelude to paradise. This life is the only thing here and now—and it is all you need. “I have set you absolutely free, no prizes or punishments, no sins or virtues, no one carries a marker, no one keeps a record. You are absolutely free to create in your life. It’s you who creates heaven or hell. “Live as if there is nothing beyond this life, as if this is your only chance to enjoy, to love, to exist. Then you will have enjoyed the opportunity I gave you. And if there is an afterlife, rest assured that I won't ask if you behaved right or wrong, I'll ask, ‘Did you like it? Did you have fun? What did you enjoy the most? What did you learn?’ “Stop believing in me; believing is assuming, guessing, imagining. I don't want you to believe in me, I want you to believe in you. I want you to feel me in you when you kiss your beloved, when you tuck in your little girl, when you caress your dog, when you bathe in the sea. “Stop praising me. What kind of egomaniac God do you think I am? I'm bored with being praised. I'm tired of being thanked. Feeling grateful? Prove it by taking care of yourself, your health, your relationships, the world. Express your joy! That's the way to praise me. “Stop complicating things and repeating as a parrot what you've been taught about me. Why do you need more miracles? So many explanations? “The only thing for sure is that you are here, that you are alive, that this world is full of wonders.” ✿ڿڰۣ— John Roedel (author): “Me: Hey God. God: Hello. Me: I'm falling apart. Can you put me back together? God: I would rather not. Me: Why? God: Because you aren't a puzzle. Me: What about all of the pieces of my life that are falling down onto the ground? God: Let them stay there for a while. They fell off for a reason. Take some time and decide if you need any of those pieces back. Me: You don't understand! I'm breaking down! God: No - you don't understand. You are breaking through. What you are feeling are just growing pains. You are shedding the things and the people in your life that are holding you back. You aren't falling apart. You are falling into place. Relax. Take some deep breaths and allow those things you don't need anymore to fall off of you. Quit holding onto the pieces that don't fit you anymore. Let them fall off. Let them go. Me: Once I start doing that, what will be left of me? God: Only the very best pieces of you. Me: I'm scared of changing. God: I keep telling you - You Aren't Changing!! You Are Becoming! Me: Becoming who? God: Becoming who I created you to be! A person of light and love and charity and hope and courage and joy and mercy and grace and compassion. I made you for more than the shallow pieces you have decided to adorn yourself with that you cling to with such greed and fear. Let those things fall off of you. I love you! Don't change! ... Become! Become! Become who I made you to be. I'm going to keep telling you this until you remember it. Me: There goes another piece. God: Yep. Let it be. Me: So ... I'm not broken? God: Of course not! - but you are breaking like the dawn. It's a new day.

Hi my name is Iris! I am a Community Moderator and I am unfortunately unable to take 1-1 chats.

 I am presently not taking any new member chats. Feel free to search for other listeners from HERE [/BrowseListeners]. Thank You for understanding me. Hello Hello! Welcome to my profile page, thanks for visiting. I am Suryansh, or Surya, a young man from India. My time zone is IST (Indian Standard Time). My favourite subject is Physics. I really enjoy listening to music, watching series shows and tech movies, traveling, and getting to know our world and its history. I like coffee, and I am fond of writing and reading thoughts and quotes. After a few years, I aim to join the Indian Administrative Service, serve the nation, and continue listening and supporting people. I am a trained, verified listener here on 7 Cups. I like listening to people and supporting them with whatever they are going through. I believe that everyone deserves to be heard and understood. I cannot solve your problems, but I assure you that I will provide you with a safe listening ear and support you. Your feelings are absolutely valid, and I vow to you that I will never judge you. I would appreciate receiving ratings and reviews, as they help me improve, learn, and grow. I greatly believe in respect, patience, and kindness, which I will always embody in our conversation, and I would greatly appreciate it if I received the same attitude as mine back from the other person. I substantially care about you! I am available from Monday to Friday; weekends are days off from 7 Cups for me as I practice Self-Care on these days. We all deserve to have some me-time to care for ourselves. My general response time is within 2–3 days. If I am unavailable or offline, you are so welcome to leave me a message, and I will try to respond as soon as possible. I have some triggers that make me feel uncomfortable in chat. Please avoid sending one-word messages involving 'okay', 'k', 'huh', 'heh', ok', 'oh', 'ah' and 'hmm'. I would appreciate your understanding nature toward me. My Involvement in 7 Cups Group Support & Chatroom Ambassador  As a Group Support Ambassador, my focus area includes Group Support Leadership, Engagement and Quality Aspects of the rooms. As a Chatroom Ambassador, my focus area includes complete management of the Chat Support Team. I also assist with Chatroom Mentor/Teen Star applications & onboarding processes. Global Community Mentor As a Global Community Mentor, I moderate the forums and take steps towards building engagement in the sub-communities with various types of activities. I can edit, delete, or transfer any forum post/thread from any sub-community. Forum Moderator/Forum Flag Team Member As a Forum Moderator/Forum Flag Team Member, I take steps to keep the forums clean and free of toxicity. I am allowed to review flagged posts, approve, edit, or delete them, according to the community's forum guidelines. Listener Verifier As a Listener Verifier, I can conduct mock chats or grade forms, in order to verify listeners, based on their Active Listening skills.  Global Moderator As a Global Moderator, I have moderation (Mod) access in all the member group support rooms. I moderate the rooms to keep them a safe place for everyone and maintain a supportive environment in the rooms.

Peer Support As a Peer Supporter, I provide support to our listeners after a hard/difficult chat. Doorkeeper As a Doorkeeper, I can open or close any room on 7 Cups.  You are always welcome to drop me a message if you would like to get any information, want any room to be closed or opened, or just have a casual chat. I reassure you that you will be provided with a safe and non-judgmental environment to have a chat with me. Thank you for visiting my profile.  Congratulations! You have reached the end. I have a cup of coffee for you HERE [https://thumbs.gfycat.com/BonyDecentChameleon-max-1mb.gif]. Thank You :)

(Updated, current month 2024) ❤️ *on a break* ❤️  ------------------------- Response Time/ PM-land access:  🌻 Members:  New Member Chats: I'm completely unavailable for new members. (Members I've never talked to before whether new or old on cups)  Regular/ Recurring/ Old Member Chats: People I've talked to/ supported over a committed time frame, I love to hear updates from you, and am happy to see your messages. But please know that I'm unavailable for LIVE chats and can only reply offline, when I'm able to. (Responses may be several days delayed) So whether you're a new member or someone I've talked to before, if you need Live/ Immediate/ Urgent/ Regular/ Long-term support chat, please reach out to another available listener in cups.  You deserve prompt support, which I cannot offer, for an unforeseeable time! ❤ 🌻 Listeners:  I'm available for Peer Support and Chat Support only when I've accepted your request either through Chat Support/ Peer Supporter request forms or in the LSR, so please before messaging me for any of it, ask me in the room, as otherwise I may not be available to respond timely! Mentees/ Coachees: I'm so proud of you for trying your best to improve as a listener, and happy to hear any updates from you!  I'm typically unavailable for Live chats, and offline responses may vary, feel free to drop your questions though, if not too urgent, and I'll respond as soon as possible! If you need a live chat, let me know a little in advance, mentioning the topic for the chat/ kind of support needed, your time/ availability in ET pr cups-time and hopefully, we can schedule for a live chat sometime!  Not available for any personal chats/ PMs unless stated/ agreed to otherwise. (Due to a high influx of messages, I'm unable to prioritize replying to messages with just a "hey/hi/ greeting", thank you for greeting me, but please do share a bit about "what" you're reaching out for, whether as a listener or a member, as it helps me understand how to respond better and faster. Messages with only "hey/ hi/ greetings" are missed often.)  I'll be around, in the forums and chatrooms when I can though, feel welcome to tag me in your posts or replies, happy to see you! 🥰 I've sadly not been getting notifications for all the tags lately, apologies if missed your tag. Feel free to send another tag or a personal message, if needed.  (I know) Extremely slow response rate: I'm on a break from several activities/roles here, but have been catching up with PMs and tags as much as possible. Responses will be slow and delayed, your patience is appreciated. Send a follow-up, if I missed your important message or if you need an urgent reply. <3 Support shouldn't be delayed, so I highly recommend browsing for other listeners when you need some emotional support. Please remember you are awesome and not alone here. ❤ Stay great and take good care, everyone.   Response time for all my current (regular) members/ listeners (and mentees) would vary as I am not logging in here regularly as earlier, I apologize if messages are delayed.  Send a follow-up, if needed. Thank you for understanding, YOU do come first and there's plenty of support available at all times, please do find an amazing currently active listener  HERE [https://www.7cups.com/BrowseListeners/], and I hope you receive the best support available! 💖 ------------------------- Hello, Amazing Human, Welcoming hugs and high fives and cookies for you! (Take what you need hehe) I am Sun, Thank you for finding me here, I understand life isn't always smooth sailing, we all have our ups and downs. I know I won't be able to solve all your problems, but problems shared are problems halved, right? Or even if not halved, I do feel sharing can help reduce the burden of overwhelming thoughts and feelings in your mind ~ your mind is not a notepad, it shouldn't be a place to "store" thoughts and feelings ~ share away, your mind deserves to feel lighter and better and so do *you* ... Besides being a trained verified listener here, I can offer you a kind, empathetic and non-judgmental ear and help you guide through these dark times. Feel free to Talk/ Share/ Vent and I'll be more than happy to listen to you, provide you with a safe and comfortable space and help you feel better in any way I can. Please do keep in mind that I can't and won't advise you, I can help you guide through the roads, but the steering wheel will always be in your hand and the direction to choose will always be your decision solely since you know your journey and your destination, the best. Rest assured, you've got your passenger seat covered for any support and encouragement always!  I am a persun who believes in the power of sharing smiles, happiness, kindness, encouragement, hope and positivity And I would love to share these with you too if you allow me to (always at your pace and comfort of course).🌻 I am pretty respectful and polite to everyone and personally do not use any offensive language including any kind of passive-aggressive/ provoking remarks, so would certainly expect and appreciate the same from you. Everyone deserves basic respect and decency! 💛  People looking for inappropriate sexual chats and/ or interested in making any sexual advances towards me~ this is an emotional support platform ~ and we do *not* entertain such kinds of conversations here.

Head of Content and Product Team Member  I am unfortunately unable to take member chats at this moment. I strongly believe in psychology - as a psychology student - I view our Psyches/psychology to be a key for all success in life. I believe that soulfully, we are all butterflies - we suffer from trials and misfortunes, and bit by bit, we are purified by our sufferings, until we are able to soar like a great butterfly. But the greatest thing amongst the chaos of this world, is that we can unite in the face of darkness in order to grasp the light. Conquer your life today, and reach out whenever needed! 🦋I am a verified, trained active listener with experience on several leadership teams here. I believe in the power of listening and motivating one another for success. Apart from my work here, I am a bookworm, poet, and lifelong learner. I enjoy advocating mental health and have leadership experience and training. 🦋 My journey at 7 Cups started as an intern. I graduated my internship here with honors, and put together a project on Social Media Depression (link found at the end of my bio). 🦋 My current roles include being the Programs Coordinator - I oversee the Content Volunteer Team and the Translations Project. I also enjoy being a Peer Supporter, Moderator/Room Supporter, as well as a forum-worm). 🦋 In the past, I have loved being the CML for the Veterans and Military Support Community and the Family and Caregivers Support Community as well. I have worked with great teams including the 35+ and 50+ subcommunities, and have been a discussion writer and feed team member as well. 🦋 I have not been raised or born in Pakistan and am only just recently adjusting to the culture/norms associated with the country. My first and primary language is English and I am not fluent enough in Urdu. Kindly respect that. 🦋If you are interested in learning more about the Community Projects and the Honors project, discussed above, please click the links below. Thank you!
