Wink Come and convert to Cosmysticism, my fellow infidels!

All My Religion Needs Now is a Snazzy Post-Death Scenario

Quote:
The way I've written Cosmysticism (I mean, the way it was revealed to me), each person on Earth corresponds to a star in the universe. We are all literally people of the stars, filled with ageless matter and untold potential. It's pretty straightforward, but with just enough crazy sci-fi touches to get people hooked.

I could've simply said that when people die, they return to their star state, but that would've been so unimaginative. All the popular religions make promises of a grand existence in the afterlife. How can joining the universal consciousness compete with Islam's afterlife of countless sexually available virgins or Christianity's chance to revisit all the kitties you had during your life?

He's too late. Alice Bailey's Treatise on White Magic talks about Stellar Logos or a similar idea. Maybe it's her with a beard.
