Today we had to write an essay in school about materialistic and spiritual world. Since im not good in begining a topic I will make it short
The essay was supposed to include our opinions about spiritual and materialistic world and how do we think they both are like, we had to describe them both. Also the teacher told us to write down about our opinions in living in both of those worlds and about materialistic and spiritual people who live in them. So now i would like u to write down ur opinion here too.

I think the difference between the material and spiritual worlds is that the material world is directly perceptable by our current sensory and physical awareness, whether it truly exists, is an illusion or whatever else. The spiritual world, on the other hand, is very much so present everywhere and in everything, and indeed is the driving force of things metaphysically, but it is not directly perceptable by normal physical sensory abilities.

To me there is no spiritual, it is just an anomoly created by the mind to feed the insatiable need that is human curiosity. To me there is only the physical or "material" world. This obviously creates our brain which in turn creates our illusion that is the mind. "I think therefore I am" I think not so, you exist already, but referring to the "you" that is the mind? It would not exist without the biochemistry or the molecular brainstructure. But that's just what I think

Indeed, it is just what you think. And my answering to midnight's question was only going by the founded views on such things as he was inquiring about. I was making no claim of faith.

Material World is where we are living in now. Things that can be touch and seen. Spiritual World is a place where we could not see or touch but can be feel. On some explanation is call dimension. But Spritual World could be illusion world where none existance happen.

Material World = Illusion too....hmmm......I am not so sure about this. But most of the time people fall into illusion when comes into Spiritual World. The reason being might be, no people actually knows where is the spiritual world is located. Mostly are actually writen down by some people. So there isnt any evidence of existance.

Material World could be here where we exist. Do you agree on this?
