We just got back from seeing John of God in Brazil… it was powerful. Even before I went to Brazil I had a dream and the Entities of Light that works through John of God came to me. Some of those Entities are St. Francis of Assisi, St. Ignacio, Dr. Agusto De Almeda, Jose Valdivino, St. Rita De Cassia, Sao Francisco Xavier, and more than a 1000 more Entities of Light. And people from all over the world come there for healing. Lots of people from France, Germany, from the US, Brazil, Africa, and many other countries and from every single spiritual persuasion.

Once there was a tree, it was tall and strong and had lots of different leaves. And all the leaves would move in different directions in the wind. And because of that the leaves thought they were separate from the tree.

Do you feel at peace most of the time? Or does peace come and go throughout the day? Anyone can have peace 24/7. Our choices create our day, we can choose certain things that create peace. Or we can choose things that create havoc in our life. It’s all up to us… we have the power. Take for instance a man who chooses to be a policeman and knows that he will have emotional turmoil all day lone. Or a person who decides to be a grocer and have less havoc in his life.

Giving in the hope of receiving isn’t giving, it’s lending; and when you lend you’re at great risk of not being paid back. nn More than 25 years ago I had a painful and frustrating experience which made me understand that only when you give to others unconditionally and without expectations do you really receive. Otherwise, all you’ll receive is disillusion. nn Tomaticas was a girl who I rescued from a Bogotá sewer and who quickly stopped taking drugs and became a sw

Do you have days when things do not go as you would like? What a silly question . We all have days where things do not go as expected and it seems as if we are not accomplishing anything. Those are the moments when we have to remember our spiritual priorities. What is most important to you? Who is most important to you? What do you want to do to help yourself? What do you want to do the help the world? When things go wrong we can either sit around and mope, complain and feel

If we look at the individual life as separate from the rest of the creation, and claim that it starts at birth and ends at death, there seems to be no rationale or meaning for that life, nor can we explain the evolutionary progression of awareness, understanding, growth, and development that we see before us.

The full manifestation of the supramental consciousness in the world is the objective of the integral Yoga. This does not mean, however, that such a radical change in earthly life is expected to come about quickly or without any preliminary steps to be taken. In terms of the evolutionary procession of Nature, changes tend to take place gradually, measured in hundreds of thousands if not millions of years.

“Dragon Fruit or Pitaya is Another Powerful Superfood”

“New studies show that a person can think themselves sick. And that’s exactly why all the spiritual texts talk about thinking uplifting thoughts.” Dr. Be ie Siegel did a study and found that people lived to be as old as they thought they would live. So if a person thinks they will live to be 55 their lifespan proves that. If a person thinks they will live to be 110 their lifespan proves that we are what we think.

The default standpoint for almost the entire human race is that of the ego. There are tribal societies that try to reduce the predominance of the ego through a collective mindset, but even in such societies, pride, rivalry for dominance, and other forms of ego persist. In the West, a premium is placed on the development of the ego and the individual personality. People are taught to compete, to win against others at just about any cost, to succeed in the self-aggrandising process in whatever field of endeavour one finds oneself.

How can anyone describe or comprehend an experience of consciousness so foreign to our normal human individual experience? Sages and seers have used many illustrative images to try to provide the mind some vague notion of the significance of the shift in standpoint that is represented by the consciousness departing the limitations of the ego-personality and entering into the wideness of the cosmic consciousness. One image which comes up frequently is that of a stream or river which eventually joins the ocean and loses its individuality in the vastness of the sea.

For many, the idea of Yoga is physical postures and breathing techniques, to attain fitness and flexibility. This is not the whole story, however. Hatha Yoga, which has been popularized world-wide over the last 50 years or so, is one element of the much larger understanding of Yoga which we find in the ancient texts, such as the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali or the Bhagavad Gita. Yoga has a vast range as seen in the practices of Tibetan Yoga, the Vedantic and Tantric traditions, and various spiritual disciplines, many under other names and forms, found in traditions around the world.

Today is Monday June 1 and I heard Shaddhalu Renade speak in New York City on Wednesday night May 27. I am still deeply involved in my memories of the event. Those in the audience wanted to hear something encouraging: words of pr0mise that our planet and the human race will survive. No matter what the question, Shaddlalu spoke of the need for human beings to reach a higher state of awareness and a higher level of consciousness. Having lived most of his life at the Sri Aurobin

My father was an angry man and when we kids got in trouble he used to hit us with his belt or slipper. And lots of people in this day and age have abuse to deal with. And the key to all of this… is to forgive. When I was a kid my siblings and I would get into trouble now and then Mom would say, “Wait until your father gets home you are going to get a spanking”. And I don’t know if the psychological strain of waiting was the worst or getting hit by my father’s belt… but both were bad. And as a kid, I used to hold onto a lot of anger and it got worse in my 20’s.

There have been hundreds of thousands of cases where people knew about something just before it happened. Take for instance the other morning a good friend was working out at the gym and all of a sudden it came to him that one of his clients would not be able to make her appointment. And right after that a text arrived from one of his clients, asking for a reschedule because her car was in the shop — True Story. Synchronicity or the Land-Line of God is all around us, all we have to do is notice all the small miracles that happen everyday.

Not too long ago there was a man who was always being negative. And all his friends knew about this and tried in lovingly ways to guide him towards being positive. But one day, it got so bad that his negativity starting making him sick. So what are we supposed to do? “The Poor Me Syndrome”

Question: Having read your book "How to know God" i found it interesting the extract where Dame Julian(pg 5) asks God why he created the world and God says that he created it out of love- I understand that but I would like to know, God having created the world out of love where do you think God himself comes from. The Bible doesn’t touch on it, Genesis begins with 'In the beginning, God created the heavens...' but what was happening before that?rn Answer: rnBefore creation

Much research has been done to monitor the various stages of sleep and to try to determine what is taking place during each stage. People have been experimenting with learning during sleep, and some people actively ‘program’ their minds before they go to sleep to solve certain problems they are facing, letting the subconscious work out the solutions. Aspirants frequently report dreams or experiences that occur during sleep that help to guide them or solve issues they are facing. Many find that teachers or gurus come to them and provide instruction or guidance.

What is psychological health and growth? Western psychology tends to define psychological health as the absence of various forms of extreme disturbance or disruption. ‘Normal” levels of dissatisfaction, upset-ness, are considered to be both acceptable and part of everyday life. It is only when someone experiences a psychological state that drifts into total disorientation, violence, suicidal thoughts, or disassociation from the expectations of society that psychology labels the behavior as unhealthy or harmful.

Whenever an individual enters into a new situation or circumstance, there is a period of disorientation, which may involve misinterpretation of what is being experienced, as well as failure to understand the rules, laws or protocols that may apply in that new situation. In society this may lead to difficulties and in some cases, a complete failure to relate or even entering into various legal difficulties due to differing laws or customs. An example is the difference between those used to English or American law versus French or Italian law.

Spiritual practice is not just some affirmation or meditation technique we do once or twice a day. In the truest sense, spiritual practice means APPLYING our spiritual values and inspirations in daily life.nnIMPLEMENTING what we know is right and beautiful is a major purpose in the total process of evolutionary growth. But we should not be too dismayed if the brilliant insight we had yesterday seems hard to implement today. It's all part of the Great Process.nnSpiritual growt

The recognition of the separation of the Purusha, the inner witness consciousness and the Prakriti, the active nature that operates in the mind, life and body, is an important step in the practice of yoga, whether for total abandonment of the outer world and liberation of the being, or as an essential phase in the eventual transformation of the nature to take up and manifest the divine intention without the distortions caused by the ego-consciousness.

As the seeker traverses the unknown realms of the inner being, the various worlds of the physical, vital and mental planes and the spiritual heights and widenesses, he is confronted with many circumstances, events, beings, and actions which he simply does not have any reference point to understand. This can lead to errors, even fatal mistakes. The guidance of an experienced teacher, or guru, can help, yet the ultimate and essential aid is the psychic being coming out in front and taking charge of the direction and focus of the being.

We generally try to measure the importance of a particular religion or path by the number of adherents it boasts. Hundreds of millions of Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, and many tens of millions in other major religious denominations, are impressive numbers for our exte al mental awareness that measures and analyzes. Sri Aurobindo points out, however, that the mass quantity of nominal adherents means little, if anything, when it comes to the question of the evolutionary development of consciousness on the planet.

Once the yogic sadhana moves to the physical consciousness, it runs into the nature of the physical and material world that predominates in the quality of Tamas, with its characteristics of darkness, sloth, indolence and dullness, inertia and slowness to change.

Our normal human consciousness revolves around the standpoint and awareness of our ego-personality. We look at things from our own viewpoint, and determine our relation to everything that takes place based on how we perceive these things to impact the ego. We tend to treat the universal creation in reference to ourselves, such as believing and acting on the belief that the sun revolves around the earth. This earth-centric viewpoint is an extension of our individual ego-centric viewpoint.

On Sunday a young lady contacted me and said, “I watched your video about, ‘The Science of Heaven and Love’ but why should I love people when they are terrible to me?” And here is my answer. Negativity Does Harm to Our Brain - First of all, whenever we say or even think anything hurtful to someone that process actually starts to short circuit connections in our brain. Thus we are actually doing harm to the one we see in the mirror and thus for just purely selfish reasons, it’s very important to keep a positive mindset and love everyone including the one we see in the mirror.

There has been a strong impulse among many spiritual or religious traditions to reject all manifestations of human love as flawed and imperfect expressions of what love is intended to be in the Divine viewpoint. It is of course evident that most of what passes for love in the world has its deformations, weaknesses and failures. Yet, it is possible to identify the kernel that represents a deeper and truer impulse. The question then arises whether the manifestations of human love should be denied, or, possibly, uplifted and purified.

When we have dreams of a divine being with us it’s very auspicious. It’s very meaningful because those divine beings only show up when they want to. No one can force a divine being to show up in a dream. Personally, I’ve had a divine being come to me in a dream… it was Jesus, Buddha, and all the rest… and I recognized who they were right away and I got down on my knees and kissed their feet. What Does This Mean

For the most part, we react to things without considering the source of the impression that sparks the reaction, the process of the reaction or the manner in which the impression is converted into a response. These things simply “happen” and we tend to accept them as ‘human nature’ or, in some cases, ‘my nature’ with the implication that not everyone will react the same way.

Some people, especially those with a naturally devotional nature, will gravitate toward concentration that is centred in the region of the heart. Others, who have a more intellectual turn, will find it easier in most instances to experience the concentration in the mental centre. This approach actually can itself take several different forms. Classically, the seeker is instructed to concentrate on the area between the eyebrows, the ajna chakra, also termed the ‘third eye’ by many. This is a centre of concentration and mental will.

Question: I have read a number of your books, including "How to know God". Let me say, I had a conventional Protestant upbringing, but I soon rejected the "prison of social conditioning", as you call it, and became an evolutionist and agnostic. Whenever I hear the word God, I see the old man with a long white beard on a cloud,(he is also bald) an image which I reject and you do too. You say God is not a person, it is a process and the Book of Moses, as you indicate in your bo

Sri Aurobindo distinguishes between what he terms the ‘intermediate zone’ and a number of intermediate stages in the development of consciousness. The distinction is important. The intermediate zone is a transitional phase as the normal human mind-life-body begins to experience the influx of forces from other realms or levels of consciousness. As the seeker begins to gain conscious experience in the spiritual quest, in the form of various experiences, influences, intuitions, etc.
