No, but there is grave danger of imagining yourself to be any or all of the following: liberated, tolerant, open-minded, enlightened, loving, kind, generous, selfless, honest, correct, balanced, grounded...
It is a well-known fact that people imagine themselves to already have acquired the characteristics they value and wish for. Spirituality is the greatest source of such delusion.
Wait...did you mean Y!A R%26amp;S? Sorry, my bad. Pass.Is there a danger in religions and spirituality of making an image of your own personality into a false deity?
its been done first with the christians i think hitler had a go the was a few roman emperors and some pharoesIs there a danger in religions and spirituality of making an image of your own personality into a false deity?
not that I've ever heard of.
but then again we are all part of god, and have part of god within us, (part of that whole ';in my image'; thing)
Satanism of course puts youself as God, but thats different from what you mean I think.
I don't think you understand what spirituality is about.
you don't have to worship god blind.... you CAN have a personal relationship with your God, and thats a good thing.
as far as spirituality is concerned, I wouldn't call it a danger, but it is where you stop growing and close yourself off to something greater that you could learn
Yes very much so.
If you are religious at all, you know any false deity is wrong, no matter what it is. Man cannot serve two masters.
Yes - but I'm not sure it should be considered a ';danger.';
I suppose that all depends on how dangerous your personality is.
Are you just talking about in this answer category, Religion %26amp; Spirituality, or in general?
i definitely think that is a danger, in any religion/spirituality across the board. even if it is not the most direct image, personality can still bear heavily on your worldview.
