I like the ideas Dyer expresses.
And the fact that there is or isn't evidence that everyone is connected to God, a Higher Power, Great Creator, etc., whatever the individual chooses to or doesn't choose to call "it", isn't relevant for me. As an individual I've recognized that I'm connected to what I like to think of as a "Great Creator" or the "Great Spirit". These terms of course aren't mine but I borrow them from Amerindien thought.
The important thing for me is that it's mine, and it's what I choose, my belief system on my terms; which is why I like the Jung and Dyer quotes, it's my connection and there is no organized religion, church or ism to interfere with it.
For you, if having evidence is relevant, that's you and it's fine by me. In no way should I deem you to be wrong, or ignorant, or unsaved, or unenlightened, or inferior, or systemite, or etc ...all those things that most religious people do when confronted with and/or when witnessing to someone who isn't inclined to be transformed to their faith and religion.
