According to FUNKTIONARY, THE KEY HOLDERS ENPSYCHLOPEDIA: 

Dogma - Am God (spelled backwards). 2) a puppy's mother—a bitch. 3) instructions on what to believe and how to believe it. 4) truth pressed and starched to appear crisp. 5) any kind of truth that justifies the institutionalized structure of the organization. Reality isn't wrinkle-free. Every dogma has its day—and a dogma that chases its catechism will definitely be busy. Dogma is the edifice of ignorance (in the form of static superstitions) and bastion of banality inside your thinking apparatus and thinking process. Dogma is the expression of the belief system that must be adhered to; hatred is the enforcer. Dogma is the rulebook of the particular truth that is being enforced by hatred. The truth that is played with is the game—the rules that enforce how the game is played is the dogma. Dogma is a protector of objective truth; and truth is a prophylactic for reality. Dogma is the bug (fatal flaw) and true believers are the replicating viruses that propagate and distort the internal model of the nature of reality directly experienced within nondual consciousness. People perceive reality's forms as direct threats on (and to) their truths because they are merely living (in truth at the mythic or rational level of consciousness) and not Alive (living God in reality) at the higher states, levels or realms of consciousness. Nondual consciousness unfolds itself the highest realization that a divine being can experience appearing-as-process in the space-time continuum "Any time you have a doctrine where that is the truth that you assert, and that what you call the truth is unassailable, you've got doctrine, you've got dogma on your hands. And so Cosmos is... an offering of science, and a reminder that dogma does not advance science; it actually regresses it." -Neil DeGrassi Tyson. Dogma is the straightjacket of the spirit. Before you ever had the opportunity to even ask the question, the answer was given to you. Dogma is believing in borrowed answers to questions you never had the chance to formulate or ask. True believers are people who believe in answers without asking. Believing in borrowed answers is convenient and comfortable. Questioning is never comforting; to question one has to go within oneself Dogma's staying power lies in its ability to feed on any experience, digest, then defecate it while pronouncing it as a piece of duty. It secretly enriches itself on that it openly despises. A man of dogma is a dead man, and he clings to dead leaves (beliefs and scriptures) and dead ideologies. His religion is static, codified, organized, lifeless—dead. A true believer and his religion is a corpse. How could it be otherwise? Dogma is bogus; it is repetitive ritualistic hocus-pocus, life unlived, pretentious and way out of focus—unaligned with the Divine and unaware of the new reality ever unfolding into the unknown. You will never make it Hohm Alive because you can never make dogma your own. If you listen to and believe in anything other than your existential experience (understanding derived from awareness), you will never make it out of the Jungle—much less realize how close Hohm really is here and Now. Wherever you come across a pile of duty—there is your dogma. A warning sign should accompany all dogma, (be it religious, political or ideological), that reads: "Beware: Wet Shit, No Doubtlet!" Watch your step, there are smelly dogma tracks all around you.

dogma - spiritual mace; a reality-repellant—a fixed form petrification of a belief system or concretized thought-system. 2) religious institutional inertia—a catechism of closed theo-rhetorical ethic that cannot change you or you it. 3) the building of a door with a limitation built by and for a prospective adherent, which he/she cannot go beyond. 4) reconstituted institutionalized belief. 5) inhibited, ingrown and perverted spirituality. 6) dead tenets of dead religion on which most are (were) razed (authentic-self rent asunder) to believe unquestionably. 7) the limitations imposed by intellect, imagination, dimension, suspicion, belief and superstition. 8) ego-knowledge—taught through noise, fear and memory, and in that order. 9) fundamental statements of absolute fact based on lies. 10) permanent self-sealing truths formulated and held about reality without question. 11) prefabricated religion; anti-spirituality; instant creed—just add ritual. 12) an authoritative and precisely formulated statement of religious doctrine that is advanced, not for discussion or questioning, but for unquestioning belief by the naive. 13) convictions entombed in a declaration of blind adherence to a set of rigid beliefs or vice versa. The objective of dogma is to bind the mind to error. Religious dogma is worship by rote. Dogma, though not a four-letter word, is a four-legged creature, itself being the second leg of a vicious cycle of static truth, dogma, hatred and violence. Dogma is an integral and activating aspect of the mind-prism-prison constructed out of 3-D translucent ecclesiastical bullshit. This perverse prism down through the ages has reflected the lies, diffracted the reality, displaced the structure of truth with the content of truth and thereby created the color spectrum of consciousness that you now occupy and peregrinate under. Truth (conscience; physical effects; outer seasons) is another name for a destructive competitive local personal static mythic God, whereas reality (consciousness; immaterial causes, inner realms) is another name for a non-competitive dynamic cooperating unfolding pattern or non-local universal creative Principle or Divine Love that modifies matter (and our interpretations and impressions of it) based on the morphing nature of Life—the underlying or foremost principle being unceasing or incessant change. If you mind truth (deify it), dogma is your yield and religious hocus-pocus becomes your spiel and submissionary zeal. If you mine truth (edit it), nuggets of reality (insights) are your gain without enduring the hoary gory savior-god pain. Dogma is the bug (fatal flaw) and true believers are the replicating viruses that propagate and distort the internal model of the nature of reality directly experienced within nondual consciousness. People perceive reality's forms as direct threats on (and to) their truths because they are merely living (in truth at the mythic or rational level of consciousness) and not Alive (living God in reality) at the higher states, levels or realms of consciousness. Nondual consciousness unfolds itself the highest realization that a divine being can experience appearing-as-process in the space-time continuum. Dogma is an enemy occupation camp holed up in the most fertile regions of your subconscious mind. "Doctrines can only be created in darkness; in the light, there can be no beliefs." -Osho. Religious dogma is like holding out an empty fist to a child—taken in, but no reality in it. When you get to know the mind and get to its source, all of this becomes apparent of course. Dogma is like dead branches. All you need is to get to the root and you will come to sprout living ones naturally on your own. Dogma becomes believed secondhand or underhandedly—reality becomes known candidly first hand (when you cease handing over paradoxes and subjective truth for another's contradictions of objective or absolute truth)—and this you must overstand (so your credulity doesn't get too far out-of-hand). Dogma is designed to lead you away from the self-transcending path of spiritual awareness. It arrives to us as stale, pre-packaged definitive answers to unanswerable questions. Different dogmas are nothing more than different cells in a spiritual prison block. Dogma is always hypostasized. Even science is entrenched with dogmas of mechanism and materialsm—making it too a belief system. People need to better understand dogmas (religious, political and scientific) for what they are so they don't become deluded by them. Reverse the spell-curse d dogma, invert the prism, unlock the prison, and come correct for a change. Isn't dogma a bitch?
