Achieving The Virtue Of Siddhi For A High Level Of Consciousness

Crystals are present on this earth since its beginning. One of such crystal is Rudraksha which epitomizes Lord Shiva. While coming to its deep meaning, it is evident it indicates “Rudra” means Shiva and “Akasha” meaning tears of Lord Shiva. Its presence is supposed to leave all the negative powers from life. It boasts the incredible healing powers of the human body because wearing it will help in releasing the high amount of electromagnetic waves. Thes

Meditation, Self Improvement And Spiritual Guidance

When it comes to improving oneself, there are a lot of different methods; and for an individual to develop certain aspects of his life, he needs meditation and self improvement. These aspects can be about his thinking, overall health, controlling vices, and other areas that need to be improved. One of the best things about meditation is that is does not require any particular equipment or money for its techniques to be learned. Many years of training is not required either. M

Connecting with Your Psychic Soul

There is nothing the psychic soul enjoys more than broadcasting messages from its subconscious mind and Universal Consciousness. We think about a long lost relative or friend and minutes later, that person telephones or knocks at the door. Or we contact someone we haven’t spoken with in a while, and the person exclaims: “I was just thinking about you!” The soul receives and transmits information like a radio, said Edgar Cayce (1877-1945), the best known psychic and father of

Feeling Unsafe and Powerless to Move Forward - A Case Study

We are evolving beings: By all accounts, Wanda's life was in flow and she had been of service as a healing facilitator for a number of years. However, at the time she contacted me, she only intuitively knew that she had reached a plateau and she was "missing a piece". She was beginning to lack self-confidence and her sensory perception was becoming inconsistent. My higher guidance revealed that she was undergoing monadic embodiment, meaning that the higher frequencies of her

The Art of Transformaction

In Transformational Presence work, we talk a lot about the distinction between transformational and transactional approaches to leadership and coaching. In a transactional approach, the focus from the start is to get a result, and usually to get that result as quickly and efficiently as possible. Sometimes just getting the job done is sufficient. Yet in today’s complex and rapidly changing world, it’s often no longer enough. In a transformational approach, while we still

Faith And Trust: A Conversation

In discussing the concept of letting go and having faith and trust with a student in one of my groups she stated that she believed in God but was also afraid of God. She said, “I know you are supposed to let go and let God. But I can’t trust in a God that punishes.” I asked her, “What about opening to a God that is love?” “I’m afraid to open up to a loving God because I don’t feel worthy of it. I also couldn’t trust in it,” she said. I asked, “If you believed in a God that is

Are You a Manifester? By Shakti Mhi

Often we divide people into two groups: those who have the power to manifest, and those who cannot; most people consider themselves non-Manifesters. Well, this is a wrong observation, as we all manifest all the time. The difference between people is that some manifest with awareness and some without. Some manifest what their minds or hearts favour, and some do not. The way of manifestation: All possibilities are in constant potential existence. We experience only the possibil

Help Crossing Over

Sometimes when a person dies suddenly in an accident or even gently in sleep from an illness, that person may not realize what has happened. They may not know that they have actually left their physical body behind and are in the spirit world. It seems to them that they just woke from a regular sleep. They feel the same and just like they always do. They may be noticing differences, especially that most people seem to be ignoring them, and others seem to be dressed strangely or even be more confused than they are. Some may appear injured or upset about where their loved ones are.

Dimensions of Life

Spirals are the base of everything, the Golden Ratio. It is the structural form of energy and matter, it is manifestation and empowerment. Ever wondered how our lives evolves in “circles”, starting at one point, going 360 degrees to “end” up nearly at the start point? How every time we feel we have closed a chapter in life, we discover new depths of the same?

The Myths of Multitasking

In the fast paced world, there is always a lot to be accomplished in a specific time. The first thing which a person is told by his manager when he joins an organisation is, "We have lot of work in office. You will have to do multiple work simultaneously." "Alright !" the new joinee will reply with a grin on his face. If this was not enough, the manager would rub salt on the wounds, "Have you ever done Multitasking?" The person would speak in his heart, "When I brush my teeth, I breath! When I sleep, I dream! Is this not multitasking?"

Spiritual Education in the Classics

Copyright©2002 by Andrew Flaxmanr Available online at www.classicinsights.com SPIRITUAL EDUCATION THROUGH CLASSIC INSIGHTS For hundreds of years, from all over the ancient world, kings and commoners traveled to Delphi to ask the Oracle of Apollo about the right course of action – whether to make war or seek peace, whether to marry one person or another.

Journey to awaken

Throughout my entire life, I have experienced every doubt, every torment, every inner struggle with all the difficult decision that one has to make to enjoy the wisdom that I presently have. It was a journey of self discovery. In a way, I choose to experience in my soul all the difficulties occurring on the path of knowledge of the ordinary and extraordinary consciousness. When one struggles to obtain truth, the next part is to know what to do with that truth. I feel now is t

Striking Resemblence

Some of us may have striking resemblances with another family member or even a close friend - whether in looks, mannerisms, or tastes. Sometimes we enjoy sharing these traits with another and other times we do not. The times we do not are the times we've judged a certain quality as non acceptable or unwanted.rn rnA striking resemblance is usually one that is completely out in the open, very obvious, and almost amazing or surprising. As a society, we have come to train ourselv

Making Your New Year's Resolutions Work!

One year over and the next one just beginning … This is the time that we usually sit down and decide what resolutions and goals we want to set in motion.

Transformation. What’s the Cost?

Many of us say we want things to be different in our lives, but the loss of the familiar is way too scary. We can stay stuck for years in non-movement, making excuses and feeling crappy.

I have recently heard; me, myself and last week a fellow told me that he knows as a fact that he is a combination of three types of bodies, very interesting.

Ask Good Questions

When you are in the creative process (which is always, by the way) you are asking for your creation, essentially. You are thinking about it, wondering about it, contrasting it with what you have now. The next thing to happen is the introduction of a rich idea, or insight, to your mind. It may be that someone delivers the idea to you, or you may have an inspired idea come to you in your thoughts. Once that has happened the next important thing for you to do is: ASK GOOD QUESTI

GOD Explained for Atheists and Simplified for Theists

May 2, 2011 GOD Explained for Atheists and Simplified for Theists Whether God exists or not, before we ask or answer this question, we must be very clear about the fact that what actually we mean by the word ‘God’; otherwise both the question and all answers are meaningless. In layman’s language when we use this word ‘God’, we mean the creator of this existence. Whether this creator is a person, a power or a process, we will discuss this aspect later. One thing is c

Life is not just the approximate 80 years we spend on this Earth. This is not simply my belief, it happens to be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. Knowing the truth is the most important thing you have in your eternal life. If you think of life like building your dream house, truth is the solid foundation your house is built upon. Without the truth, your house is built on sand and faces the risk of collapse at any time. I don’t know this most important

From My Father's Knee

As early as 4 years old, I can remember walking through the grocery store with my mother, all eyes peering at me. I grew up in the small towns of Oklahoma. Not so unique, but my mother was Caucasian and father African American. Along with my mixed heritage, I had mixed feelings about the smiles, stares, and the pointing that often accompanied them. Many times, I would ask my mother, “Why is she staring at me?” You see, I learned early that if I asked this question as loud

Awareness Cannot Be Planned

So many times I have been asked, «What meditation methods to use? What techniques to study? When do I get awareness? When do I achieve strong witnessing? When to drop methods?» So I want to tell you… As for me, awareness cannot be planned. As for me, awareness cannot be studied. Realize that all achievements, all goals, all plans, all projections are in your mind, in your thoughts, in you head, whatever you call this phenomenon. But awareness itself is beyond your mind's

Climate of the ego

What really is climate change if not a reflection of our grandiloquent ego? Day by day, year by year we destroy our one viable, habitable planet. What possibly could be the reason for such absurdity?

The Power of Perception

Do our beliefs create our reality? Can you transform your life by changing your perception? To find the answers to these questions we need to look at how the workings of the brain interact with our power of intention. When you were born your mind was a blank slate with no prejudice, no bias and no beliefs, but some time around the age of seven you developed what is called the Reticular Activating System (RAS). This is the part of your brain that determines what information your conscious mind will experience.
