Eastern mysticism

[Wootah]

[Replying to post 3 by Divine Insight]

In fact, you already have all the evidence you need to know that the Eastern Mystical God exists. If you fail to believe in this God it can only be because you don't understand the religion. Because if you did understand the religion you could not deny its God. At least not as the religion defines it.

The tables are turned in Eastern Mysticism. In other words, if you wish to argue for a purely secular materialistic existence, then the burden for that claim is on your shoulders. You'd have to explain how that can be true.

Over to Divine Insight or anyone that can explain it please.

Q1) what is the god of eastern mysticism?

Q2) why is the burden of proof on the materialist?

My definition of a supernatural entity is a conciousness that can still exist without having an active brain. It exists in and of itself immaterially.

Do any of you believe in that definition of supernaturalism as the truth, and under what evidence or reasoning do you believe that.

If you don't believe that, than isn't it better to label your beliefs as philosophies rather than religion.

Q2) why is the burden of proof on the materialist?

is this saying that the proof must be scientific?

some eastern mysticism like taoism believe in body consciousness. that is, the body itself has a mind of its own independently of the brain, which is regarded as another organ in the body, although with functions pertaining to interactive consciousness.

When I quoted Divine Insight he the quoted part said, "if you wish to argue for a purely secular materialistic existence, then the burden for that claim is on your shoulders"

My question was questioning that.
