THE FAITH DEBATE
Any religous practice can be incorporated into a Sports faith. Sports are inter-dinominational. But is what we're trying to acheive here right? How do we know that we're doing God's will? This is an old way or habitual way of thinking: The "there's only one way to get into heaven" angle. Any deviation = no heaven. And if you're a little different it's no good.
Look around you
What you'll see is that there is diversity. This stems from a universal conciousness, an ultimate creative Soucre. Whatever you call it, this energy created millions of species and flowers and colours.
So the diversity is the key in knowing that there's not just ONE WAY back to God. There's lots of ways to find our natural paths, and football is one of them. Because we are all individuals there will be diversity, but the fact that we all want our team to win gives us that united bond, that glue, that force to will the team home.
Being within God makes you a Godly Being
We all have the sense that we have a common Source bond. How much a part of the universal mind do you feel you are? If you feel you're more seperate from this then you come under the heading of being "parented" by it. This is a more traditional stance for faith energy. If you include yourself within this universal mind, you can explore how much you want to involve and invoke yourself in it. This is a more modern perspective.
Your conciousness is in everything
That is the synchronic element of life. So when you input a parameter of football into your life, you can choose to realise the synchronic aspect that this can become, not only for the team but for your individual existance and development on the planet
Athletes have the ability of getting their minds into a state that allows them to perform at the highest level with an optimum energy. When we give energy to the team, we are giving our portion of conciousness to the cause. And this, like the athelete, can be trained to reach higher levels. everything you say or do is an affirmation. You are affirming your existance by the words and actions you choose to do and say.The more you affirm the positives in your life and the team, the more you will habitually reside in the goodness of the energy you output.
