If you have read any of the articles on the 13 Universal Principles of Success you will surely know the benefits of knowing that they exist and that without them you could not exist. You may even have begun the process of identifying each of these principles by contemplative meditation.

There is Spiritual perfectionism and there is negative ego perfectionism. These are two totally different understandings of what perfection is.

Practitioners Guide to the Galaxy This planet has long been a focal point for an attempt at creation through DNA evolution as well as a place for individual souls to experience individual creation. As far back as 300 billion years ago the storyline includes the rise of civilizations both isolated and interactive with o

I would immediately ask, “where are you looking?” And then follow that up with, “what is looking?”

What does it mean to have psychic gifts? In fact, what exactly is a psychic? Have you ever given it much thought? After all, it has become a rather common thing to discuss. Perhaps, you or someone you know may have had certain experiences of seeing beyond the so-called normal realm. Those who have not had such experiences may find it rather strange and mysterious. But, I wonder if we really understand what it means to be psychic. By definition, it is considered to be a transcendental thing of the mind and not necessarily spiritual.

The word “Kundalini” comes from the Sanskrit and means “coiled.” Kundalini is a universal energy that lies coiled (like a snake) at the base of the spine. In Eastern tradition there are methods to forcefully raise the Kundalini, however, one should refrain from such practices at all cost as following such techniques could create massive damage in the nervous system to the point of going insane!

Lord Buddha said in his Four Noble Truths that all suffering comes from our attachments. So if you want to be happy every day for the rest of your life, you need to let go of any and all attachments. You need to replace your attachments with preferences.

There is a continuous flow in all of life. Whether it is the earth beneath your feet, or the solar system above your head. Life is circulating at all times. The reason why I mention this "circulation of life", is because when this circulation becomes blocked, or has a kink somewhere, that is where unbalance sets in. Let's just focus on you for now. Your health. When you are ill, your body is unbalanced. Which means somewhere in the circulation of energy in your body, there

We all want to feel good and be at peace during our day. We strive for this and attain it at times, but during the course of our day, we struggle to keep that feeling. We get lost in our day-to-day motions and forget how important it is to come from this place, to exist in this way. We lose the balance we had because we are too busy, worried, stressed, anxious, or any other of the many ways we choose to feel. Finding your way back to feeling that sense of peace, no mater the moment, is a very useful tool.

The purpose of life is to realize God and attai God Consciousness. Said another way, the purpose of life is to become an Integrated Ascended Master. However, unfortunately most people have forgotten about the meaning and purpose of life and are lost in materialism, sensual pleasure and sensationalism! They live for what is transitory instead of for what is ete al! They waste their time with gossip, TV and hedonism, and in their longing for material wealth they have suffocated the longings of the Soul. This is the sad status quo of human mass consciousness today.

It is the media that chooses to promote the term Racism to obscure political, social and spiritual process. Mass media disseminates and processes information on a continual basis, programmed in relation to the political, social and economic policies impressed upon them through government regulation. The media is the instrument of social fragmentation.

We all seek happiness in our life; we all want to find peace, contentment, to be at ease, and feel fulfilled. And yet how often does this really happen, and what is the key to finding this? How can we live a life that provides not only this, but everything else we desire? How do we connect to living a life that is complete with nothing missing? How do we reach point that point in our life where we can become happy? One thing to understand is that life is not about reaching a goal because life is about right now.

Avatar - the concept of Avaatar in Hinduism (manifest God)... does it hold good? From times immemorial it has been a standard practice in Hinduism to accept the existence of Avatar. But who is an Avatar... is Avatar manifest God himself or a human being who assumes significant spiritual powers that the humanity starts considering one an Avatar. In the present Kali Yuga everyone is awaiting with abated breath the advent of the Avatar of the era... the coming of Bhagwan Kalki.

Past Life: Wanting to know who I was in my Past Life? Before we tread into the domain of Past Life... we need to understand the present and the future carefully. Before indulging in our Past Life we also need to know the purpose of life journey as a whole. Starting from the beginning... in the chronological order as the evolution took place... we shall find that we started the journey as an Amoeba (single cell formation)... this was the first manifestation which occurred in t

As human beings, it is natural that we would question ourselves on our aptitude and our value from time to time. We all find ourselves at a loss as we are trying to lay our hands on a single, solid prophesy of a changing of tides where you will be happier and live life on your terms. There is ...

Blessed are those who own their personal power at all times in all ways and all things, and surrender to God's Will, for they carry the real power of God in the world. Blessed are those who love without conditions for they shall experience the unconditional love of their Father and Mother. Blessed are those who use their wisdom in active service for they shall know the Voice of the Holy Spirit, or the Still Small Voice within. Blessed are those who have perfect self-control and self-mastery for they have won the battle of all battles.

There is a ‘test’ that is currently playing out on Earth is the ‘Ascended Future You’ asking us whether we are ready to step deeper into the process of ascension. It is something that happens to all when going through ascension. The only difference today is that it is happening to all of humanity at the same ti

POSITIONING Anchor Scripture: Jeremiah 6:16 “…. In the ways….”rn‘In The Ways’ has to do with Your Positioning. Your positioning matters a lot in the quest for success. Your present position determines what happens to you/your destiny. Where you are standing? Are you still in the Business, plan or on that Vision well Informed? Your positioning, location really matters a lot in whatever field you are or project you are working on presently. Yes, you are well positioned but are you still in the flow – (Do you still get yourself updated or updates about your projects and vision?)

If you are blessed enough to have your own garden, try working with the devas as well as with the nature spirits living there. If you don’t have a garden, no problem. Just work with the devas overlighting your indoor plants. But make a conscious effort to connect with the nature spirits and devas and plant kingdom in your garden (or house) by telling them that you love them, asking them for guidance as to what they need and like, or maybe even given them a name.

Motivation is something the ego wants. Ego needs motivation and drive to do things it doesn't really want to do. Motivation is something you need in order to do work. Ask a child "what is your motivation or drive for playing?"...and you will have a very confused child. Or you might get the simple reply..."because it is fun." What is play, really, but to have fun. So what is being said is "I'm having fun to have fun." It is having fun for its own sake. This is play...no motivation needed.

After a divorce a single parent can find him/herself in a pit of confusion.It is time to sit down and consider how your new family is going to function because that's what you are; a family. You may be missing one component that has been with you for a while but those of you who are left now that the divorce is final are the ones who have to deal with everything being the way it is now.

You can work with any of the Angels and Archangels by simply calling on them. For example, Archangel Michael focuses on protection and strength. So part of his job is to protect us with his strength and to teach us to stand in our own power. If you need protection or strength, you can call on him. All you have to do is say, “I call forth Archangel Michael for protection and strength.” That’s all. Just be quiet and see what happens. You will most likely start feeling some energies flowing through you, indicating Michael’s presence.

Some intrinsic problems regardless of its origins—by its very nature—is self-limiting and essentially disempowering. And too much time spent delving into these numerous scenarios can lead one into a very negative state of mind indeed. The unspoken consequence of this type of thinking is that it diminishes any ac

Resignation is giving up, quitting, stepping down, standing down, or otherwise conceding defeat. Accepting what is means allowing what is to be and then working with what is. Accepting what is does not mean you are giving up trying to change it. Accepting what is does not mean quitting or conceding defeat.

The Integrated Ascended Master realizes that other people’s suffering is in truth our own. We don’t want to take on the suffering of others, however, other people’s suffering is our own because we are all one Spiritual family. In truth God/ Brahma/ Allah/ Dharmakaya/ The I AM THAT I AM has only one Son/Daughter, and we all share in this one Sonship and/or Daughtership of God – and in that sense the suffering that other people and also animals go through is our own … because forms may be many, but essence is one. And in essence we are all united and one!

“Why is there so much negativity and darkness on our planet?” Like myself, probably many of you have asked this question. Spiritual leaders, philosophers and great thinkers, throughout history have also sought to answer it. Yet, with all of this effort, our planet is still plagued with wars, ...

Ask yourself the following seven questions to determine whether you see clearly or whether indeed you have some blind spots in your psychology. 1. Do you see God in everyone or does the negative ego have you see physical bodies instead of Ete al Selves? 2. Do you follow the dictates of the lower self too much instead of the guidance of the Higher Self? 3. Do you approach the Spiritual path from a Spiritual lens only and not from a lens of consciousness and psychology as well?r

1. You must strive for integration, balance, synthesis and full spectrum prism consciousness in all ways and all things. Mass consciousness is exactly the opposite: it is fragmented and imbalanced. 2. You must have discipline and structure in life. 3. You must develop an incredible work ethic. 4. The way out of mass consciousness is through denial and affirmation: denying the consciousness of the masses and affirming the group consciousness of the New Group of World Servers. 5. You must claim your identity to the level above you instead of the level you are living on.r

More and more people around the world are awakening Spiritually and they are opening up to their higher senses. And with these higher senses they are tuning into higher levels of reality, bringing through information from higher realms. Depending on the psychological clarity and mastery of the individual, some of this information is clearer than others.

It is reality of the nature of human to always want the best thing in life.rnWe are always striving for something better. We want to have a bigger home,rna better car, or more knowledge. Whenever we acquire anything we want, soonrnanother desire for something greater develops. Therefore, we are just programmed to advance our lives and it is not only ourrnright, but what we have to do, to always pursue something better. Everyday we attract something into our lives by just expe

To me, death is a teacher whose wisdom and simplicity can be awe-inspiring. Humanity, as a whole, fears death; however, death is inevitable. For as an old saying goes, you can win a million battles with death, but death only has to win once. This resistance to an inevitable part of nature ...

The densest body of our so-called lower bodies is the physical body. We are all familiar with it because it is the body that we see with our physical eyes. We are also familiar with the five senses – sight, hearing, taste, touch and small – which are built into our physical body and allow us to experience and interact with the exte al world.

Findho is a small Scottish community that became known in the early 70’s for a small group of people who developed direct contact with the nature spirits and overlighting devas or angels of the plant kingdom. They followed the guidance given by these beings, and as a result all the plants and vegetables in their gardens grew giant! To learn more about this community, please read “The Findho Community” by the Findho community.

The idea of reinca ation is as old as man. Plato, Pythagoras (who was a past life of Kuthumi), the ancient Egyptians, Greek, Hindus and Buddhists all believed in reinca ation. The word “reinca ation” comes from the Latin and consists of two words: “re” means “again” and “carne” means “flesh.” The purpose of life is to realize God. The purpose of inca ating on Earth is to realize God on a planetary or Earthly level and thus break free from the wheel of rebirth.

Everyone has had a relationship at least one time in their life. Love and relationships are challenging that is for sure. People are fearful of commitment, afraid of being rejected, and actually it's the fear that keep us in problematic relationships.

We often come across people who for no good reason treat us badly, not that there is ever a good reason. People who behave in this way, who attack verbally or on a personal level, are really seeking acknowledgment and approval within themselves. By pushing outward they are trying to attain a level of completeness in themselves. For example, as you cross the street someone unjustifiably honks their horn in anger, where does this come from and why is it directed at you?

A good man in hard times prays to god - “god, just let me win the lottery, I have been good, I love everyone equally, I live a decent life. I just wish I had a break from all this financial turmoil, please just let me win.” Weeks go by, the man hasn't won. In the mean time his car breaks down and he can't get to work. Again, he prays, “god, please, I really need help, please just let me win the lottery. I can't get to work and I have no money to fix my car. I have conti

To whatever percentage you do not own your personal power is the extent to which the subconscious mind, astral body, emotional body, inner child, negative ego, lower self, glamour, maya and illusion will run and victimize you!

Where does sadness come from when you don't understand its presence? Why is it there when you see no reason for it? Sadness itself has no control over you; it is not a separate thing. If we imagine sadness itself as something we must get rid of, let go of, or solve, then we are going about it the wrong way. Sadness is there because of something you are holding onto, something that occurred in your past, something that is still with you today. Sadness is simply attachment to something that has happened in your life that you have not yet let go of.

Prayer is a very profound tool to transform our consciousness. By saying prayers we are using the power inherent in “the word.” It is said in the Bible that God created the world by the power of “The Word.” We are co-creators with God, so our word has creative power as well! By saying prayers we are articulating words of power, and these words of power have a powerful effect.

Even if you get what you want, you won’t be happy. If it was a car, a job, a spouse, or whatever…you will fear and worry about losing what you got and so you will never truly be happy even when you get it. There will always be the anxiety of “what if I lose it?” Happiness does not come from getting the things you want.

Find a comfortable position, either lying down or sitting up. Close your eyes and allow your breath to flow easily and naturally through you, without forcing it. Enjoy yourself and relax into the flow of your breathing. Then say to yourself, either inwardly or whispering/saying out loud, “I love myself because I am a Son/Daughter of God. I love myself because I am lovable. I love myself because I am beautiful. I love myself because I am of pure heart. I love myself because God created me. I love myself because I am divine, etc.”

Sangham is a Sanskrit term for a community of devotees, who gather to chant, have scriptural discourses, recite texts, and meditate. This support system is vital during all stages of sadhana, spiritual disciplines. However, the unfortunate reality is satsang--associating with God-inspired persons--is not always possible. Thanks to the magnificent world of high technology, connecting people with shared interests from all parts of the world is now possible through numerous networking sites, such as Myspace, Facebook and Friendster.

Every human being needs the love of God. For every one of us, it is necessary to become aware of God's presence, to accept and adore it, because in reality God is already in us and we are in Him. God is everything. God is love which is ceaseless and omnipresent. His love is Divine love - ...
