Quote – Definition of Dogma

The definition of dogma is …

A spiritual ideal or belief that

becomes a trap to the evolution

of a soul beyond the ego and mind.

Through words, philosophies,

and the attachments that they create

inside a person’s soul,

dogma can become a rigid adherence

to what is “written” and can become

an avoidance of our own self-reliance.

In essence, we believe so fully

that we step away from empathy

and feeling into what is true in this moment.
