Our freedom stops where someone else’s starts. This line is called responsibility.

If we realize that our field of dreams is not the same as someone else’s field of dreams, we’ll get along better with that person. This is a hard thing to learn sometimes.

No matter how much insight we gain about God, there will always be something that lies beyond the horizon of our understanding. That is simply the nature of truth.

You can’t make yourself closer to God by hating someone else, whether you believe it’s righteous anger or not. The relationship between Soul—which is you—and God is one of love. And where there’s pure love, there is no room for anger of any kind.

@benodic Pls give answer the followings: 1) Outline of ECK membership program

A true spiritual teaching makes a link between God and you. And it provides a guide to help make your journey as easy and direct as possible.

Eckankar has an inner and outer living guide. He has made the journey into the heart of God but has returned to help us on our way to Self-Realization and, ultimately, God-Realization. This guide is the Mahanta, the Living ECK Master.

The next step on your spiritual journey can be linking up with him through membership in Eckankar. You will then experience the awesome miracle of advanced spiritual growth—a life of joy, meaning, and creativity

The ECK teachings place you on an advanced track back home to God. Experiencing the Light and Sound of God gives you the momentum to start working off all the karma that has held you back from spiritual freedom and true happiness.

Membership Facts include:

Membership in Eckankar is renewable once a year.
Application can easily be done online via the ECKANKAR website. www.eckankar.org

There is no charge for membership, but there is an annual suggested donation. For first-year members, the suggested donation begins at US$60 for an individual or US$120 for a family (US$50 for an individual or US$75 for a family in developing countries).

You'll receive quarterly publications such as the Mystic World, which includes feature articles and Wisdom Notes from the Living ECK Master. Each issue has inspiring stories from ECKists about their experiences on the way home to God.

When you become a member of Eckankar, you receive a discourse series for your personal study. You study one lesson a month, sharing them with your family if you like.

There are currently seventeen years of ECK discourses for you to explore

Members of Eckankar (ECKists) work toward higher states of awareness through the Eckankar initiations. Each initiation is a true awakening. It opens you to a whole new world of God's Light and Sound. It also imparts to you a new sense of spiritual stability and strength.

You can also participate in ECK Activities—Introductory presentations, ECK Light and Sound Services, book discussion classes, seminars, spiritual fellowship


2) Soul travel?

Soul Travel is simply the process of Soul going back home to God. This then involves expanding soul's consciousness through the various planes of God until one gets to the heart of God.

On the outside, divine and emotional love may look the same, but divine love is joyful, thankful. It gives itself fully.

Let love be what it will. Don’t let the mind tell you one is human and the other divine.

These are lower world phenomena that you see mostly operating from the first heaven or astral plane. We don't usually concern ourselves with them.
ECKANKAR takes you far above the lower world phenomena and plants your feet firmly in the 5th heaven or Soul plane where you become Self Realized and from there you continue your Spiritual growth until you achieve God-realization and become a Master in your own right and a Co-worker with God.

The above mentioned phenomena are practiced by psychic criminals whose realm of activity is very limited (the highest they can ever reach is the Third Plane). Once you develop yourself spiritually and rise above their level of operation, they become nothing/harmless to you.

The teachings of ECK prepares one to be citizens higher heavens. First being Self-realized and finally God-realized. The true ECKist is in this world but not of it.

Your answer implies ECK ranks 'demons and angels as same "psychic criminals" according to your creed
