    Paganism - the ancient religion of our ancestors

    I wrote an article some time ago. One of the people I know at one of the Russian Pagan forums is working for a magazine, so he asked me to write that. I did, but the article was never published, as the editor of that magazine is a staunch Christian. I published it on several Russian web-sites...

    Jealousy - what do you think of it?

    I mean jealousy in a relationship. I am a very jealous person, though I have learned not to show that, and not to cause trouble for others, but I feel it nevertheless, and I do realize just how much unpleasantness this feeling brings to me. The funny thing is that I don't actually mind if my...

    Psychedelic substances and spiritual development

    Some time ago, I believe it was in the thread devoted to 4/20 celebrations, there arose a question of why do people ever use psychedelics, and what do they do it for. At that time I promised to start a thread concerning this question. After quite a long delay I finally compiled together some of...

    Dreams and imagination

    It has recently come to me, that over the last two or three years I have practically stopped dreaming. I don't mean the dreams that we see when we sleep, but rather the things we imagine, just for the fun of it. I used to be a great dreamer ever since I was a child. And the things, events and...

    Emotions or rational thinking?

    I have a question for everyone. What do you think is the best way to go through life - by listening to your rational side or to your emotional side? In other words, is it the brain or the heart for you? Personally, I believe that there are very few situations when we can let emotions rule. I am...

    The difference between a sect and a denomination

    Can anyone explain this difference? Nowadays in Russia everyone, whose opinion is different from that of the Russian orthodox church is considered a sect. What do you think?

    Alcohol vs Marijuana - what do you think?

    Marijuana came up in MagnoliaApples' topic about the sexiest thing, and that gave me the idea to start this topic. You see, in Russia, where I live, alcohol is forced to the people as a national habit. It is notoriously known in the world that Russians drink a lot, Russian vodka, and all that...

    Do you ever discuss personal issues here?

    I hope I am not breaking any rule by writing this :? My married boyfriend waved me good-bye a few days ago. I always knew that it would come sooner or later, but I didn't think it would happen so soon. And the last date that we had... everything was just perfect, and I was so happy. It was the...

    Behind the iron curtain

    I just wanted to share a couple of thoughts that I have. My parents moved to Canada about seven years ago.
