A writer wrote about Immorality, "It is not common that you will find it. It is not popular if you say it. People do not believe it. A preacher is criticized if he reminds you of it" Despite this perception, the fact remains that Immorality has entered into the Church. How do we tackle and ...
“Ascension” is a popular spiritual topic. In Christianity the term is used to describe the bodily rising of Jesus into heaven. In the New Age, it’s descriptive of consciously transcending this dimension (i.e., “self-ascension”) to advance spiritually to a higher plane, one that is void of ...
In your pursuit of spiritual awareness, you may have embraced the “consciousness” movement. After all, it sounds good, right? Become more conscious of yourself, humanity, and the environment, and strive to better the planet. However, what you may not realize is that to many advocates, “consciousness” includes destructive economic and political policies. You’re Not Alone if You’ve Fallen For it Many people have become ensnared in the consciousness trap. The music-to-your-ears cosmic messages, on the surface, appear to be beneficial for humanity and the planet. Some are, some aren’t.r

Most singles want to find a soul mate, but aside from the common romantic assumptions about this elusive magical bond, they generally don't stop to think about the spiritual purpose of soul mates or the true meaning of the term. Thanks to movies, TV, and romance novels, the perception of a soul mate has been distorted beyond it's metaphysical definition. There is much suffering that could be avoided with more understanding and a change of viewpoint. The following are four of the most common soul mate mistakes and what you can do to bypass them.

On Sunday morning, with a deck full of leaves and no power, I sat to listen to the Divine and have myself a little conversation. I looked up to see this amazing creator (see grasshopper picture on the left). I've been seeing a lot of grasshoppers lately. On my car, on my deck, hopping out in front of me on a stone path. So I wanted to share the message of this beautiful creator with you.
One of the most beneficial things you can do for your emotional well-being is to forgive. Forgive everyone who has ever hurt you, let you down, ripped you off, and anyone you perceive as the “enemy." Why? Because holding on to resentment toward someone depletes your energy, delays spiritual ...
My son attends Cornell University, where I have had the pleasure of meeting and talking with Professor Robert H. Frank, author of The Economic Naturalist: In Search of Explanations for Everyday Enigmas. nnOne topic that Professor Frank covers in his writings is the "opportunity cost" or the "implicit value of other opportunities that must be forgone" in order to take advantage of a specific situation or acquisition. nnThis basically means that in order to gain something, you

One should never judge homeless people and stereotype them as unfit to society. They are real people with vibrant hearts and yearning souls like the rest of us. Even though, many sacrifice their pride to remind society of its indignity, some better yet, are invisible spirits and guides on our shoulders protecting us. That is why, I believe we can fly. Over the course of nearly one year, a homeless lady stood every Friday and Saturday night at the corner intersection of the R
Money and spirituality are commonly viewed as incompatible. However, since financial resources are necessary to survive and money by itself takes nothing away from your spirituality, it’s reasonable and wise to simultaneously strive for a healthy spiritual foundation and relationship with money.

Every day can make an amazing difference in your life when you know you're living your infinite purpose. If we do not recognize our infinite guidance we will live day to day in the most unfulfilling ways that result in not being joyful or excited in our daily life. That means that we have become to feel numb because life's most beneficial purpose is not being noticed and lived. How do we live our life to experience the best potential benefits?
There may have been a lot of things you got away with as a kid. But now you know better, we hope. If you're like most people, you live your life aligned with the expectations of society, but is everything you abide by really for your own good? Laws, regulations, rules, and more rules. But are they all legitimate from the standpoint of karma, freedom, and personal responsibility? In your spiritual quest, maybe you've asked yourself, "What is acceptable behavior in a karmic sense? What won't make me gain negative karma?"
How excited are you about your career? According to most job satisfaction surveys, nearly 80 percent of the people working in the US are unhappy or mismatched in their jobs. Don't be one of them!

This is the time of year when many of you have dropped the last child off at college. Many feelings are no doubt swirling around inside you. You may feel proud of your child and excited about the new possibilities that await him or her. You may also be feeling anxious about your child's adjustment and yours. While this is not, by any means, the end of your relationship, this is a change in the nature of that relationship, so it is a bittersweet time. I remember my own feelings as I dropped my one and only child off at school.

“Each man has his vocation; his talent is his call. There is one direction in which all space is open to him.” n–RALPH WALDO EMERSON One of life’s big unanswered questions is “why are we here?” There are many potential answers - each of which will be equally valid, but on a more personal level your life purpose is something very unique and very special. For most people the idea of living a successful and fulfilled life conjures up images of hard work, sacrifice and overcomin
A very conce ed mother recently wrote to us because she had discovered that her 17 year-old son was smoking pot. She was worried about addiction and asked us what we would do in her situation to help him realize the spiritual and other consequences of his choices. Even though we intuitively felt that her son didn't have a problem, seemingly innocuous experimentation can easily lead to a destructive habit or addiction.

If you saw the film Marie Antoinette, you’ll remember that it was all played like she was in a dream. At the end, when you saw the street scenes of Paris, it was like coming out of a dream. It was showing us the feeling that Marie Antoinette had no awareness of what was going on in the world ...

The concept of betrayal from a spiritual viewpoint is controversial. Since the dawn of time, many forms of betrayal, particularly romantic betrayal, have caused much emotional anguish. Everyone knows from experience that betrayal isn’t pleasant. Nobody likes to be on the receiving end of deliberate disloyalty, including failing to honor business agreements, familial obligations, or a marriage contract. You have a legitimate complaint if you’re wronged in such a way. How Betrayal is a Spiritual Lesson
According to Martha Stout, PhD, author of The Sociopath Next Door, about one in 25 individuals is a sociopath. A sociopath is someone who lacks a sense of moral responsibility.

On your quest for spiritual truth, the last thing you need is misinformation. Unfortunately, today’s New Age market is full of dead ends. We list below the definitions of key spiritual terms, according to our empirical research since the 1980s, to help you cut through the cosmic debris and follow the most authentic spiritual path possible. Fate: Here’s a word that is often distorted beyond recognition. It actually means the same as destiny. You’ve likely heard the phrase, “You can’t cheat fate.” We can’t emphasize enough how true we’ve found this to be, always.
One of the biggest blockages people face in moving forward with living according to their passions and purpose is belief, both conscious and subconscious. Our beliefs determine what we attract and what we allow ourselves to receive in life. When we start from a place of limiting or flawed premises it will hold us back from achieving our goals and desires. Common limiting beliefs include things like: “I’m too old to start something new.” “You can only get what you want by working hard and struggling.” “Only the few really talented people achieve what they want.”r

After you learn more about the process, you may be able to get past life insight in your dreams, in meditation, or even through spontaneous perception. Don’t believe in past lives? It’s natural to feel skeptical, yet it’s good to remain objective, explore, and reach conclusions on your own. You will benefit if you’re willing to accept the process.
Bible Text: Philippians 3: 8-14 INTRODUCTION One of the common worry of man is a desire to explore what they are truly meant to do with their life. Most of us have a sense that there is a better, more meaningful way to live our lives, but we can’t seem to find it by ourselves. We carry on ...

Is it possible to lose your psychic ability? We’ve been meditating and exercising our psychic muscles for years, and we’ve found certain things can strengthen or weaken psychic ability. Everyone has some degree of psychic ability, whether you want to call it your gut feeling, intuition, or guidance from above. We don’t think it’s possible to ever permanently lose what you were born with (we consider your unique talents abilities developed over lifetimes, not “gifts”--nobody gave them to you). Many things can interfere with psychic abilities, including the following:
