It's a big world in which we live in and when we look at it in the scale of the universe, the world in which we find so large is only a speck of dust if you were to look at it from the opposite side of the universe. Even so, each and every living thing within our planet and in this galaxy all have purpose and significance. It's foolish for any men and women to actually believe that we as people are the only ones which may have any on earth. This couldn’t be further from the

Do you ever have those moments? Do you ever have those days? Do you ever have those nights? Weeks? Or months? The ones where it feels like nothing can go right...that no matter what you do, no matter what you try, it doesn't seem to get any better? Do you think, "When am I going to find my dream career? My dream guy? Or my dream?" or "When is everything I've worked so long and hard for going to finally pay off?" or "When have all I sacrificed going to turn my wants into my re

The difference between the soul and the spirit has a lot to do with “whose” soul and “what” spirit we are actually talking about. Most people refer to the soul and the spirit as being connected to specific people and each of us is often said to have a “soul” or a “spirit” which will live on after our physical body dies. This is usually enough to satisfy those of us with a passing interest in the subject and little more is ever required on the topic after that. Of course, ther

Stephen Covey, in The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, shares an experience that he once had while traveling on the New York subway. Imagine you are riding the subway early one morning, and everybody appears to be comfortable -- people are drinking their coffee, reading their newspapers and magazines, working on their laptops, talking on their cell phones. Everything is normal and peaceful. At each station, a few people get off, a few people get on, everything is calm

As the spirit grows more perceptive during a well-savored fast, both soul and body can enjoy a special well-being.rn rn“Fasting is not really fasting,” my husband, Larry Scherwitz, said when he learned the topic of this article. “It’s slowing.” An inveterate “faster,” Larry knows that fasting—the custom of abstaining from nourishment—is virtually a universal phenomenon, a “slowing down” path practiced by those on a spiritual quest who seek transcendence,

The Dream That Changed The World Johnny woke up in a cold sweat. He had just had a dream that both frightened him and at the same time made him feel wonderful. In his dream he was floating in space in the palm of what he perceived to be a giant Hand. He was able to see and travel through ...

Pureness of heart is the ability to see that all that exists is Spirit, Brahman, Consciousness, Krishna, God, Allah and nothing but this Beginning given different names by the wise of all ages. The pure heart sees that all of existence, all of life in its different forms, is This and nothing else. There is no notion of a separate deity in some other place, there is no notion of a separate and personal identity on some circular search. Nothing exists outside of this Beginning.

Although it’s quite hard to define what inner peace really is, we all know what it feels like because we’ve all had times in our life when we experienced it. For many inner peace is nothing but fleeting moments of bliss that is more often than not something that they cannot really hold on to. One of the main benefits of living a more spiritual life is to cultivate a greater sense of inner peace in your life. Inner peace is a deep inner sense of ease – a sense of inner comfor

HEAVENLETTER #2389 Trust God said: Bewilderment is a good thing. It lets you know you are alive, and it lets you know that life holds more for you than you presently know. It's fine to be bewildered. You don't know where all your steps may lead. You don't know the full meaning of the steps you take. And why do you think you need to know these things? When you figure life out, or think you have, then you design plans and outcomes. You think you design them, for even then yo

Here is the most powerful supplement that anyone could every take. And it heals everything without side effects.

Slaying Dragons nnWhen I was a boy reading the stories of "The Knights of the Round Table" and other adventure tales of knights, ladies, and evildoers, my friends and I were inspired and spent many afternoons playing heroes and villains. In the woods of our backyards we went on many daring excursions, faced serpents with crested heads, and dark and wily villains, and emerged victorious. Knights and dragons are primary themes in our Western heritage. The power of these stories

In the past, my reference group told me that if I did what they said in the present, they would Love me in the future, which means they were withholding Love from me now—which means they were withholding Love from me always! No wonder I felt worthless. They were giving me conditional love, which is not Love at all!

"Man is seeking for phenomena, he wants wonderworking, communication with ghosts or spirits, he is looking for something complex, and yet the simplest thing and the most valuable thing in life is to find one's true self." - Hazrat Inayat Khannn The Sufi musicia Hazrat Inayat Khan said that the key to mastering happiness is to move through life in harmony and rhythm. Tuning in to and accepting your own unique vibration (harmony) is the first step toward the achievement of la

As we near the end of another glorious year of life and adventure, we are presented again with the opportunity to make a decision as to the way we choose to perceive our life’s circumstances. Everyday our mind judges and qualifies each moment of our lives. Either life measures up to our ...

In the East, in the West, and around the world prayer beads have been used for thousands of years. And there’s a reason why so many people use these beads to calm their mind and find peace. Using the beads while saying a prayer, a mantra, or a particular name of Great Spirit while moving from one bead to the next. Similar to Mediation - Using prayer beads is a lot like meditation, we occupy the mind with something simple and thus everything else which is less important is set aside. Thus it’s easy to sooth a mind that is full of anxiety, fear, and stress.

“Service to humanity is service to God. Let the love and light of the Kingdom radiate through you until all who look upon you shall be illumined by its reflection.” Abdu’l Bahan Our true path of service is a path of respect, honour and Love to all of Creation. It is a path that requires us to ...

“Nourishing the soul by adding a healthy spiritual diet to traditional treatments can open new channels of hope and confidence. The joy of the soul, in turn, weakens the debilitating fear and demoralization of the depressed psyche.” While the our world continues to absorb disturbing headlines of the current death toll from COVID, political chaos including an unprecedented siege on our nation’s Capitol, and ongoing restrictions and changes within our communities, depression and anxiety are at an all time high.

I have been swamped, deluged and inundated with people’s thoughts telling me they are frightened by the possibility of terrorist attacks. They are scared of airmail toxins, viruses and nuclear explosions ruining their health and jeopardizing their lives. I am telling you people I don’t do ...

Do you currently have a goal that you would like to attain, but are unsure of what the next step should be in attaining it? Or maybe you think you know what you "should" do but your find doubts or fears of failure are standing in your way? Maybe neither of the above apply but you find that no matter what you do, you still haven't gotten to where you want to be. Quite often people set goals for themselves and "on paper" they look very attainable if that person were to follow

Back in the 1970s, when I read Wayne Dyer’s “Your Erroneous Zones,” I was shocked to learn what neuroses looked like and how many of them I had been taught to accept as “normal.” By learning which of my behaviors were neurotic, I was able to start the long project of upgrading them to healthy behaviors.

Yesterday, I was shopping in Walgreens and I noticed an elderly woman struggling to pick up a bag of cat food. Of course, I leaned down and offered to help her and put two bags in her cart for her. I love helping elderly people—my heart just fills with joy and I thought suddenly that ...

There are many great tasting roots that grow all over the world and malanga root is another one which has many health benefits. And as the climate of the world become warmer we need to look at new tropical foods that are coming to the US and other parts of the world that can sustain our growing population. Plus malanga root is very tasty, and it can be used just like potatoes, plus it can be made into flour for baking and chips.

Everyone knows about eating eggplant for preventing cancer and for powerful antioxidants that prevent disease. But most people don’t know that eggplant smoothies and water are also great for weight loss and for lowering blood pressure. Eggplant contains saponins which help to prevent the absorption of fats… thus helping with weight loss.

A friend of mine is working towards enlightenment (an oxymoron, I know, but just follow the story here). She meditates every day, trying to clear her mind and be in the moment. She’s very good at it. So good, in fact, that she’s discovered one thing they don’t talk about much in spiritual studies: enlightenment is boring. Boring, that is, to our Western mind that gets engaged in the process of getting somewhere (enlightenment), then forgets that it is often the journey,

The world needs forgiveness as much as it needs peace, and without it we remain chained to the past, our hurts and our story. But what is exactly is forgiveness and how do we activate it in our consciousness? Let’s start with what it is not. Forgiveness is not a warm fuzzy where you kiss and make up and pretend that everything is now okay. It is not an attempt to minimise what has happened. It is not a matter of just getting on with life and putting it all behind you as you suppress your real feelings, and it is not a matter of acting tough and pretending that you have not been hurt.

The much hyped DVD, The Secret, has tapped into a genuine interest in the hidden side of things. At a time when people have lost hope in religion and there is a lack of direction in many lives, The Secret, offers its take on the invisible side of life. I am heartened by its popularity, because ...

HEAVENLETTER #2392 Have you noticed the sun? God said: What is it that you think is missing from your life? Perhaps it is your appreciation of it. Perhaps you have overlooked the beauty of your life. Perhaps you underestimate your life. No perhaps about it. If you do not love your life, then you have underestimated it. You found life guilty of not being what you wanted, and so you sentenced yourself to an indefinite term of something akin to despair. What have you not n

Who is the undomesticated creature? How has she liberated herself? What are her ways? The wild woman is the creative essence in each of us, it is the womb of all potential, a fully unknowable, ripe void of possibilities for birth, growth and transformation. Wether we know it or not, each and every one of us is drawn to this place of untamed, wild, wise, freedom. When this instinctual and intuitive aspect of our being is rejected or disowned by our being, it becomes destructive and gives rise to a domestication that imprisons, limits and creates unimaginable suffering.

We have been told that if we keep positive, think positive then we can create the life of our dreams, with the power of thought. How easy is that? Have you seen how quickly thoughts whiz through our minds. Have you tried to monitor your thoughts? If you have, then you will know how fast they ...

When water is stirred up, it’s hard to see the bottom. When it settles, finally we can see the leaves, twigs, branches, stones, or even fish bones… The same goes for the light of awareness. Once the Truth or light of presence is recognized as the all-pervading reality, separation begins to collapse. With the collapse, those thoughts, behaviors, and situations born from separateness begin to fade. The keyword is “begin..”. Yes, this means that there is a journey. …this is when the fun starts.

Do you feel as you get older that you are responsible for your children’s wrong choices they make while they are with you growing up? Is the answer you give a logical or an emotional answer for knowing where the answer comes from can make a difference in you holding feelings of guilt about the ...

One Saturday morning I was sipping my coffee and reading the newspaper when the doorbell rang. This was an unusual occurrence as we lived in a somewhat isolated log cabin in the mountains outside Denver. At the door stood two attractive college-age girls who wanted to talk to me about becoming a Jehovah’s Witness.nn Normally I would politely say, “No thanks” and return to my paper, but that morning I decided to engage with them. After hearing their initial pitch, I aske

Have you ever relied upon the kindness of strangers for your own personal safety? I was recently gifted with the experience of awakening to the presence of a soft, quiet stranger- who said with a gentle voice.It’s ok- I will stay with you, you are safe! As I began to write this sharing I realized my life was filled with experiences of the support and kindness of strangers, when I required it the most. Whether it was the appearance of a Caravaggio angel who spoke English and

I was on an Internet radio show last night with Bernedette on Hidden Wisdom Radio. At one point Bernedette asked me about my predictions for the future of the world. What an awesome question: often asked. I staggered when presented with this essential question. Before I give my prediction, let me speak about the fact that nature, and the Divine Consciousness that we are all part of, knows the REAL world of oceans, skies, land, water, air and all living things. While many of u

Could heaven and hell be right here where we are? As the old axiom says, "As above so below." On earth it as been contrived that man must suffer. It was right for its time and now the time is over. We as humanity are stepping up in evolution. We are becoming closer to the angels, closer to the ...

If I had to choose the most consistent theme that has been discussed in the over 30 years I have been doing readings and counseling, it would be that something "is missing from our lives." That something takes different forms. Most of the time it is about "relationships." The conversation goes something like this......"I am ........... years old and I have never had a good relationship, or.......I am..............years old and I have never been married. What am I doing wrong,

My friend Matt Waldron, says there are only three times in life when someone has a legitimate place to speak into someone else’s reality: 1. As their parent, while their child is still living at home; 2. As a professional, where someone is paying for their advice; 3. When someone is specifically invited to do so. Every other instance of telling someone else what you think they need to hear about their life, or speaking directly into their reality is a judgement and is theref

A little late to the party, I am diving into the world of what I hope to be mindful marketing as well as recommitting to writing my blog.

I am Kryon and I greet each individual with the words OMAR TA SATT. I greet the collective for it connects the grid of love. These connections are very strong and they unify the energies to an even higher energy that the collective, each individual absorbs and carries to the outside to the human beings. Thus I also greet the collective with the words OMAR TA SATT.

a better place to live People tend to look for a better place to live. Some emigrate from Africa to Europe, another from Mexico to the USA, etc. European countries, USA, Australia, etc. are places with the better-developed economy than others; therefore, there is less risk to die from hunger, there are higher security and better shelter. self-development

n “We are not retreating; we are advancing in another direction.” n --Gen. Douglas MacArthur--nnnTake the military context out of that quote, and it’s a great example-in-action of the old maxim: “You can be right or you can be happy.” The key underlying principle is flexibility, adaptability in the face of new information. It requires a willingness to give up our claim to being Right, and being open to taking in new information and changing what we’re doing or thi
