If you don’t like the way the world is or how your country is, your first question would be, well, can I play a part in changing it for the better? If you find that the answer to that question is no, then your next question is, then shall I stay involved in this world the way it is, and do I have any other choice than to stay here and put up with it as it is? Should I choose to die and then reincarnate on another planet because this world is not acclimated to who I am and h

The world was made to believe technology would offer the people assistance in creating a global society where peace would reign. But the truth is technology has heightened the awareness of the global differences that were apparent even before technology entered the global arena. As much as technology has made a difference in our world, the one thing it cannot undo is thousands of years of history implanted in collective memory. Collective memories are part of our heritage, an

“What if you gave someone a gift, and they neglected to thank you for it--would you be likely to give them another? Life is the same way. In order to attract more of the blessings that life has to offer, you must truly appreciate what you already have.” --Ralph Marsto We believe gratitude is ...

When we think of love, especially on Valentine’s Day, we think of romantic love. Romantic love is great and we all want it! It’s necessary to keep the species going and so it is hard wired into us.

It was a warm summer evening in June. I was a senior in high school, and everyone in our class had been invited to offer a performance piece as our “Senior Farewell Event” for friends and family. I decided that I’d sing Oh Very Young by Cat Stephens. It’s a song that is a bit challenging rhythmically, and I’d had very little time to practice. But, throwing caution to the wind (my typical style), I decided to just GO FOR IT! I’d never gotten much beyond a chorus role in our sc

Your spiritual-self, or higher-self sometimes contrasts with your ego-self’s expectations in everyday affairs. According to the theories of reinca ation and karma, your soul selects conditions and circumstances prior to your birth in order to learn and understand. But after inca ating, due to societal conditioning and the natural disconnect between here and the other side, the never-ending series of tests on school-house Earth commence and makes life forever interesting, even grueling at times, for your personality.

It is possible to predict the approximate date of a solid lovenconnection (and the inherent rewards/challenges therein) if thennumerologist and/or astrologer has the complete birth data ofnthe person in question. Full legal birth name (exactly as it isnon the birth certificate), exact time and ...

As everyone who’s on the path of spiritual growth knows, from time to time you will be tested to see if you are really serious about your spiritual journey and if your resolve is strong enough to give you more and more gifts from above. So, will life be just smooth sailing on calm seas? No, ...

“We’re all connected.” It’s the ubiquitous mantra of new-agey types. Chances are if you’ve ever watched Oprah, were a fan of the TV show Lost, or have read just about anything I’ve written, you are very familiar with this concept. Along with its close cousin “everything happens for a reason,” it’s pretty much become a cliché that isn’t really given much thought. Yet, how exactly are we all connected?

"Mind your own business" has gotten a bad rap over the years. Most people use it to mean "butt out!" but really, if we spend more time minding our own business, just imagine how much further we can get in Life. What is unfinished? We need to ask ourselves, 'What one thing would I really ...

Part-9:Principle of Anekantwad-Syadwad for Knowing beneath the Substances rn1.0 In eternal destructive modification of substances, there have been opposite logical reason fallacy to support views. This causes the development of divergent views leading to controversy.

All human beings want to be happy and what is even more beneficial is knowing how to be happy no matter what. The suicide of fashion designer, longtime girlfriend of Mick Jagger, L'Wren Scott makes one think what could have prevented it or stopped it. The truth is we will never know. However, one can speculate that had she known that she could be happy no matter what, she would not have taken her life in a moment of utter desperation.

dentify someone in your life who is strong, unique, willful, and in charge, and you're probably thinking of a narcissist -- one of the eight "impostors" I've identified that manifest in people's lives. The narcissist is arguably the most noticeable in the impostor family because it doesn't just expect the spotlight -- this impostor demands it.

Do you believe in life after death? Or is the death of the physical body the end of the road? Many people, through a near death experience (NDE) found out what it’s like to “die,” and then came back to life to share some incredible insight. The Near Death Experience Research Foundation (NDERF) is the largest NDE website in the world with over 4000 experiences in over 23 Languages. Skeptics claim a NDE is just imagination or the reaction of the brain to death. The FAQ page of the NDERF site addresses this issue and many others.

Myths abound surrounding the topics of sex, promiscuity, and spirituality.

I. Dream Meaning and Interpretation (Keeping a Dream journal) We know from studies that we experience our most vivid dreams during Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep when the brain is very active. REM sleep occurs three or four times a night, about every 90 minutes. Dreams during non-REM sleep are less vivid. Dreams are the unconscious or subconscious mind freely manifesting inventions of our brains without the constraints of the physical world.

Famous people throughout history have said some interesting things about fate. Napoleon Bonaparte, 19th century French military leader, one of the most triumphant military commanders of all time, said, "Circumstances--what are circumstances? I make circumstances." It seems Napoleon didn't believe in fate. But he also said this, "There is no such thing as accident; it is fate misnamed," perhaps during his final defeat at Waterloo, or as he spent the last six years of his life in a British prison, before his demise at age 51.

Souls can be consistently "bad" or "good" while inca ated, nbut how they act depends on many factors: What roles they nsign up for, what karma they're helping others work through, nif they are learning their lessons and making progress, and nmany other considerations play a part. Fortunately, ...

Read or listen to any news report these days and you’re sure to get negative information: workers being downsized, employees being forced to take pay cuts, big companies seeking bailout money, and yet another business closing its doors. With so much negativity dominating the nightly news reports, it’s no wonder so many people are so stressed at work.

There is much talk today about mindfulness and meditation has made its way into many workplaces and even into schools. Today we experience more stimulation from our outside environments than ever before. We have more noise and we are more accessible than ever before. More demands are placed on us in our busy lives. I'm often told by clients that they don't have time to meditate or to relax. One thing I like to help them with the idea that it doesn't take a lot of time to really recharge and relax.

Whether a person is looking to earn extra income at home or wants to build an easy home based business that will allow them to support themselves and/or their families, proper planning is the key. Most Internet marketers fail because they don’t plan. This is unfortunate, but quite common. When I started I made the same mistake. I jumped right into Internet marketing without proper planning and setting clear goals. The results were miserable. I’ve learned a lot since then, and now understand the importance of developing a detailed and measurable IM roadmap.

If we take a look at life from God’s position and perspective, we might be pushed to ask ourselves this big question: why are we here on Earth? What was God’s reason for placing us on Earth? Did we get here accidentally? Or, were we intentionally designed with a specific purpose which is different from what we think? Many people and religions agree that our reason for being here is attached to a unique and all-encompassing purpose. One of the major purposes for being here

Spirituality in the NICU...rn rnAs a physician and a parent I'm keenly aware that to say certain conversations about the status of your baby are difficult, is probably an understatement. As a life coach I believe that within each of us is the capacity to face the truth.rn rnWhen I first made the decision to pursue a medical career, it was to cure people, help people, and make a difference in the lives of my patients. In these early years, I did not fully comprehend that the r

There’s been a lot on cosmic ordering in media in recent times, from the “Secret” to Noel Edmonds getting his perfect life. You may have started out reading these books and getting really excited about the possibilities of having your dreams come true and having your very own personal genie. However after you have read the books, written out your orders, carried a £50 note in your wallet, wished and wished till you were exhausted but you are still where you were only a little poorer.

Supposedly, nobody ever said life was fair. Well, I’m saying it right now. Maybe I’m a nobody so the adage still works but I’ve come to believe that life is absolutely fair. Yes, there are selfish jerks who seem to be rewarded while truly good, hardworking, selfless people seem to be punished. There are people who’ve lived like there’s no tomorrow that live long, healthy lives while people who ate healthy, exercised and did everything right have died young. There are innocent children who suffer with terminal illness while evil dictators enjoy the good life.

If you listen closely you can almost hear it-the clank of the “golden handcuffs” hitting the ground. What are the “golden handcuffs”? They are that thing that keeps people from leaving a job they really aren’t fulfilled by, but which makes them too much money for them to walk away. Thus, they are in “golden handcuffs”. Study after study shows that American’s are unhappy with their careers, which contributes to their feeling unhappy and unfulfilled with their lives. And why not? Truth is, most of us chose a career based on how much money we could make.

“Who was I in my past life?” Which past life? Most people alive today, in our findings, have had many past lives (we’ve perceived 100s of our own). It would help to narrow down which past life you want to know about, such as one in relation to how you knew a certain person or why you have a ...

Years ago, I had a dream in which I met with Oprah Winfrey. At first I was unclear about her presence in my dreams. Over the years, she returned many times to teach me about myself. She became a sort of dream mentor, helping to form an internal vortex from which a new self within me could take ...

Do you: * Say yes to things you really don’t want to? * Put everyone else’s needs before yours to the point of exhausting yourself and neglecting your own self-care? * Go along with things you’re not really comfortable with just to keep the peace? * Say no, but you make a lot of excuses for why and feel guilty?

The state of the economy has challenged many to examine their professional lives as they lose jobs they thought would be there until retirement. Losing a job that you thought you really wanted or needed does something to your perspective. Suddenly things don’t look the same anymore.

Many of the world’s religious and spiritually inclined adhere to the belief that evil forces exist. Then there are those who reject the idea. In our experience, many individuals who doubt the existence of dark energies also reject the concepts of organized religion, God, and archangels. The argument against the existence of evil goes something like this: Evil is an adjective, not a noun. People can be evil, but evil energy doesn’t exist outside of humans who perform evil acts.

Let me guess, you don’t have time to read this right now, do you? Yes, the holiday season is always busy and yes time seems to go faster as you get older but doesn’t life seem to be moving at an even more frantic pace than usual lately? I know I’m feeling it. But I’ve been expecting this time crunch for a while now, so it may be a bit easier for me to deal with. Since I tend to be pretty sensitive about this stuff, what I wasn’t sure about was whether others would be able to pick up on it too.

That is how we manifest the beauty and power within us. This is how we can live with full wattage. Just look at the life of any “Great On

The Divine shows up in my life in ways that are in my face and some sneaky ways. I keep seeing messages, images and signs from the Divine that I AM LOVED. This photo on the curb outside the local Starbucks was the latest. Not the obvious place to "find" love. What if you approached each day with the knowing that you are loved? What miracles would you participate in? What signs from the Divine would you experience? I challenge you to set the intention today that you are loved and gently be aware when you resist, deny and move away from that intention.
