Read pic related to help yourself understand that what you choose to believe is real enough for you. This is quite life changing once you actually get it, and very important in my opinion, because God (whatever this might be) cannot be accepted through empirical evidence and rational thinking.
I would suggest exploring various conceptions of what is commonly referred as God (the Gnostic and the Hermetic for example) and not just the three monotheist religions, though there are still a lot of beauty and wisdom in them, just don't take it dogmatically or pay any significance to their historical credibility, it's completely irrelevant. Don't dismiss all religion and mysticism because muh scientific materialism either. I believe there's some ultimate transcendental force out there and when humans come into contact with it they interpret it in a different way, and none is more objectively valid than the other. Sadly most of them don't get this so we get endless bloodshed and coercion over personal hallucinations. Explore the divine yourself by meditation or rituals of sorts, psychedelics or whatever, and also through usual everyday life, pick what you find worthwhile in others but value it all yourself, you're the authority.

I guess this is a decent place to ask, what does /lit/ think of pic related and RAW in general?

Would I be wasting my time reading it?

What's this about /lit?

Serious answers please, I'm considering buying it atm. (paperback baby)

Reluctant to ask here since some of you are a bunch off hard core "skeptic rationals"
