Spirituality - The Uneducated Parents Who Killed Their Child's Dreams !

Children are God's greatest gifts to the world. It surprises me when adults try to teach children how to grow up and yet most of the children when they grow up they have learnt nothing about life. The reason is simple. Parents themselves know nothing about life other than opening bank accounts, and sending children to school. Don't get me wrong here i salute all those parents who sacrifice everything for their children.... But all the parents commit one big mistake.... nnnWhe

Spirituality Information - How to Get Through Tough Times

Today turned out to be one of those textbook beautiful days. The sun is shining, the breeze is blowing softly and the temperature is just right -- the perfect day. Even with all the challenges I have to face, I still look up at the sky and smile as the clouds chase one another across a "picture-perfect", blue background.nnnBut I know that all the days to come will not be as beautiful and comfortable as this day is.

Book Review: When You Can Walk on Water, Take the Boat

"When You Can Walk on Water, Take the Boat" is a triumphant journey of self-discovery that will change the very way you look at the world. Like most of us, John was an ordinary man who calmly accepted the problems of his life and career without any real hope or insight. Then a miracle happened. He met a strange, wise businessman named Gideon. It was a brief encounter, filled with mystery. But for John, it was the beginning of a soul-searching journey a joyous awakening of self-understanding, inner truth and the power of universal love that lives within us all.

Work Ethics , My Foot !

People talk about work ethics. Today i had an interesting gentlemen visit me at my office. He was fuming. He was a very religious person and he was annoyed of the fact that a charming girl in her twenty's wearing tight jeans was reading the sacred book of Bhagavad Gita in the same bus in which he traveled.

New Age Spirituality - Journey In The Fields Of Forever ( Part 1 )

Perhaps, in the never-ending search for meaning, not only does meaning seem to elude us, but we find ourselves faced with the eternal questions of life. Why do roadblocks always appear at the most inopportune moment? Where is help when we are down in the arena and boots are on our necks? Why am I here and where am I going? Will I ever again see my loved ones who have died? And so it goes . . . on and on. Although no one could satisfactorily answer such questions, there is som

Age New Spirituality â Inspirational Stories ( Part 1 )

The word Karma is derived from the Sanskrit Kri, to do; all action is Karma. Technically, this word also means the effects of actions. In connection with metaphysics, it sometimes means the effects,of which our past actions were the causes. But in Karma-Yoga we have simply to do with the word Karma as meaning work. The goal of mankind is knowledge. That is the one ideal placed before us by Eastern philosophy. Pleasure is not the goal of man, but knowledge. Pleasure and happin

Spirituality Information - Is The Messenger More Important Than The Message ?

History has proved that the growth of human consciousness has been traditionally very slow.I think one of the main reasons for this is because the message of all the great men and women was never projected as superior than the messengers of the message. Makes sense ! Ordinary people do a great job of applauding extraordinary human beings. They get so overawed by the personalities and lifestyle of these individuals that they are not able to comprehend the real message delivere

New Age prophets and their religious teachers spoke of various convergences and impending disasters around the turn of the century, of fire and earthquakes, famines and floods.

Their mother would have really been proud of them. Especially since her death, the bond forged by the three of us was extremely strong. We delighted in simple pleasures,like a family barbecue on the back porch or just gathering around the kitchen table commenting on the latest news.

I sat there in a state of blessed bewilderment as they landed, converging all around me. Some alighted on the branches of the mango tree and others landed next to me on the ground. Most were tropical birds although some were species I had never seen. There were kiskadees and blue sackis, red-billed toucans and spur wings, blue gauldings and scarlet ibis. The strangest part of this incredible scene was that each bird carried a tiny book in its beak. The books seemed to be mini

Clouds hold a special attraction for me,especially when Iâm flying above and can enjoy them from this unique perspective.

As our bags were being taken to our respective rooms, Marla told me that she would see Gideon and me on the balcony around dinner time in a few hours.
