Many believe that a good sexual life leads to peace and happiness. But is this belief correct? Do you know, in reality, sexual interaction is the primary reason for conflicts and unhappiness that couples have to endure in their married life? We get to understand this when Gnani, the Enlightened One, describes the nature of sexuality, and explains with precision its dangers vis-à -vis the beneficial effects of celibacy (brahmacharya) attained through right understanding. ●Se

The focus on attacks by hostile forces, and difficulties faced, easily engages the ego-personality in a form of vanity. It strengthens the hold of the ego, rather than loosening attachment to open the way for the shift to the divine standpoint. When it takes a rajasic form, the ego glorifies in the fight against the ‘powerful forces’ that are attacking constantly. When it takes a tamasic form, the ego wallows in despair that it is being overwhelmed without assistance as these forces attack.

In today’s world, depression is a widespread malady that affects people throughout the world. In many cases, pharmaceutical drugs are known to have potential ‘side effects’ that can cause depression, thoughts of suicide, or other dark moods that inhibit the ability of the individual to function in his life. In other cases, there is a serious mismatch between the pressures and conce s one sees in the world and the inner sense of one’s life and meaning.

There are three ways of finding God, the Universe, and Great Spirit but only one will last a person a lifetime. First, there is the way of the skydiver that dives into something headfirst and never looks back. Have you ever been skydiving? I have, it was a great experience but I will not do it again because the thrill is no longer there for me. And that’s exactly what happens for people who dive headlong into spirituality they sooner or later become disenchanted and give up and let it all go. I have seen this over and over so many times it’s amazing.

We have a culture that thinks that always doing more is important. But we also have a culture of people who are stressed to the max and feeling uncomfortable in their own skin. Because people have so much going on that they feel disconnected from peace and contentment. But there is a remedy, it’s been around for a along time waiting for people to embrace it… and thus find peace.

Down through the ages, we’ve had mystics in all the great spiritual persuasions. And all of them had special talents. Thus everyone for thousands of miles around would come to see them and ask questions. But how do you become a spiritual mystic?

Life is a gift! And human life a wondrous prize to be enjoyed. And what we do with this gift of life is up to us. Here are a few things to consider in creating a life plan:

Even in the most desolate of locations there is beauty. Beauty is all around us if we are willing to get down on our hands and knees and see what Mother Nature has to offer. And many times it’s just our perspective that changes everything. And perspective has to do with a lot more than just seeing the beauty in nature.

We turn our attention and focus normally to the needs of the body, the desires and ambitions of the vital being, the impact of perceptions and the thought processes of our minds. Even when we take up a spiritual path, we try to find a practice that may involve the body, the life-energy and / or the mind in carrying out that practice. We try to measure “progress” by a definition that we have set up based on our mental calculus of what the spiritual practices are intended to achieve.

There is an impulse to share something that we find valuable in our own lives. This impulse is oftentimes harnessed by religious organizations or spiritual groups to become a method of proselytizing and conversion, and in some cases, it can become a situation filled with pressure on the individuals to bring in converts, and on converts to stay and become ever-more-deeply entwined in the community. What starts off as a joyful sharing of something unique and wonderful can get turned into a drive to control, accumulate and influence people.

How often do we allow our minds to retreat to the past or leap to the future. If you’re like me….much too often. No matter how much we think about it, we can’t change the past and no amount of worry will change the future. One thing we can be sure of is that if our thoughts are in the past or the future they are not in the only thing we truly have and that is the present. How many times have we driven our car to a familiar place by a familiar route and upon arriving we

Kabbalah explains that all people are predestined to attain their spiritual root, the point of their souls' origin. In this point, one feels connected with all other people and with the general, benevolent force of Nature, the Creator. One feels eternity, infinity and perfection, and all of one's desires are fulfilled to the brim. Furthermore, Kabbalah explains that people reincarnate in the physical body again and again in order to finally reach this goal. It is the purpose

With the advent of the supramental evolutionary principle in the physical world, certain expectations arise as to the physical body and its capacities. Supramental consciousness, infused into the very cells of the body, clearly would make the body more adaptable, more powerful and more able to withstand the causes of illness, decomposition and death; in other words, one could expect enhanced health and longevity to result. This prospect obviously captures the imagination of seekers and practitioners.

In the modern world, the act of witnessing and being witnessed by another is a rare one. Witnessing in this context does not refer to legal terminology or to witness a crime or accident. Witnessing here refers to the art and act of emotionally, physically and spiritually seeing someone for who they are in the moment. It is the ability to stand fully present and to kinesthetically “hold space” for another, allowing him/her to have the complete experience of him/her

When we went to see John of God there was a sense of peace that prevailed in that little town in Brazil… Just Wonderful. I really didn’t know what to expect when we went to see John of God. First, we flew from the US to Brazil… and that was 8 hours. Then our guide met us at the airport and got us in a small bus and took us to the hotel which is 90 minutes away. It’s a nice ride and you pass many modern cities.

As of late, thousands of people have come to our borders. They come from impoverished nations, people who lack the simplest of things such as food in the homeland, they have no quality of life there, and they are oppressed to the point of losing their life, and they are looking for a new beginning. Some people say, “Turn them away”, others say, “Let them in”. Yet, didn’t our grandparents do the exact same thing? I know mine did. The World is Getting Smaller - We are the Tree of Mankind

“A Powerful Healing Agent”

You Say You Have Great Faith… Yet You Have Great Anxiety and Fear What is Faith? 1 - Faith is knowing that everything will work out… no matter what. 2 - Faith is letting go of our own thinking and grasping the concept of something larger than ourselves which understands everything. 3 - Faith is holding fast to a rock in the middle of a raging river… knowing you will be fine. 4 - Faith is going beyond the expected into the realm of pause, peace, and quiet when everyone else has fallen apart.

Seeking visions has been a part of what has been called a “spiritual journey” by countless individuals around the world throughout history and in all religious and spiritual traditions. The “vision quest” is a well known and accepted activity among seekers. Christian mystics, for instance, chose to go out to the desert or into a monastic order to focus on their religious life and seek for a vision. Native Americans would go out to a sacred spot for a vision, to discover one’s totem animal and path forward.

“We Can Heal Our Bodies and Detox Our Liver at the Same Time with Organic Food” Anytime we take a herbs, supplements, or medications all of them have to be detoxed by our liver and that puts a heavy burden on our liver over the course of a life time.

Right now we have so many people who are overwhelmed and full of anxiety. What Can We Do? What Causes Anxiety? If the ocean can calm itself so can you, we are both salt water mixed with air— Nayyirah Waheed

Suppression of the vital being and the emotions is often prescribed by those following a spiritual or religious discipline, due to the mixed nature of the expression that occurs in an untransformed and unpurified vital being.

When we initially reflect on “what is a good thought” and “what is a bad thought”, the first ideas that arise almost inevitably harken back to whatever cultural, moral or ethical code prevails within the society of the time, whether this is based on religion or developed cultural understandings and taboos. This, however, is not the sense in which either the Dhammapada, or the Mother commenting on the Dhammapada, looks at the question of “good” or “bad” thoughts.

Each new evolutionary stage of consciousness takes place within the framework of the previously evolved stages and over a course of time as adaptation of that framework must occur to ‘prepare the ground’ for the new action of consciousness. For example, physical matter, rock, ocean, volcanic action, wind and lightning, etc. are, in their original state, not able to take on and manifest the life energy.

In our typical linear thought process we tend to fixate on either the Impersonal aspect of the Divine, or the Personal aspect, and we treat them as either mutually exclusive or in competition with each other, with some adherents favoring one and some the other. In reality, both aspects are part of an integral Truth of existence.

Lots of people have anxiety and stress now, and this meditation will help anxiety and stress melt away… and allow peace and grace to filter in.

Buckminster Fuller, that wily genius: “You never change things by fighting the existing reality,” he said. “To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.” A friend just called me. He was down in the dumps because he’d ended a nascent romance that took a turn he didn’t like, a turn that resembled things in his past. What’s the cure?rn rnTea, sympathy, and a dose of reality à la Bucky Fuller.rn rn“Build a new model,” I said. â€

Remember the movie, No Way Out, with Kevin Costner and Gene Hackman? Costner plays a Navy officer who falls in love with the mistress of the Secretary of Defense played by Gene Hackman. When she turns up dead, Costner heads up the team to find her killer. He is in a multi-story government building in Washington D.C. with one team chasing her killer (him) and another team chasing a Soviet mole (him again). With every one chasing him and all the exits blocked, there appears to

We see in tales of various spiritual paths of the past, and present, that even a slight opening to the divine Power, Knowledge or Ananda can lead to severe disruptions in the individual being. There are stories of people dancing with ecstasy when they cannot hold the force coming down, as well as those who receive a little knowledge and believe they have been chosen to lead the world; or those who gain some amount of Power and use it to control and lord over others.

Do you know, to understand God’s true nature we must understand who we truly are?rnYes, you’ve got it right – this indeed means that we ourselves are God! But hold it, we as in not the body or the name given to this body. That is all temporary. And God is eternal. So, ‘who is God, where is He and what is God’s nature’ are questions that naturally arise in our mind.rnParam Pujya Dadashri explains, “God is in every creature whether visible or invisible. God is in

I read books about druids lately. About druid world, druid reality. I read about their friendship and alliance with trees, about their unity with nature. I read about walking barefoot upon the earth and feeling it hum with the energy of life, I read about being the balance, the harmony between all living things and things of spirit. I read about understanding of nature being a teacher in all things. About awareness that there is no death, that who we are does not end, that th
