According to George Sison:”…the Biblical quote says, ‘and be not conformed to this world’. In metaphysics the word ‘world’ means the mass-mind thinking.”

My interpretation is that we are called to rise above the common crowd, to claim our divinity.

George Sison speaks of sickness/disasters: “that kind of reality was not given to you by life nor by God.”

Neale Walsch wrote: “We are, each of us, a manifestation of God’s energy, and how we use the energy that we are determines how we experience the life that we live.”

The above bolsters my theory that there is no One-Size-Fits -All formula for spirituality.
