The Spiritual Tug of War

Was there a fight for my Soul?

Credit Midjourney AI’s interpretation of me being stuck between Christ and Buddah.

This is the prompt used to generate the image above and the one below

“A 50-year-old Japanese man meditating on a meditation cushion in a Buddhist temple. On his left side is Jesus Christ, pulling him to the left by his left hand. On his right side is the Buddha pulling him to the right by his right arm. The man is caught in between Jesus and Buddha who are both fighting for his soul.” As you can see, Chat-GTP generates an image much closer to the prompt, while Midjourney needs a few revisions but often produces images that are more “artistic” feeling.

Chat-GTP’s interpretation. Chat-GTP is usually much closer to the actual prompt you use.

In an earlier article describing the experience that eventually led me back to Christianity, I didn’t necessarily provide all of the backstory. However, a recent episode of the Exorcist Files podcast (speaking about the dangers of Yoga) prompted me to consider going into more detail.
