Itâs morning. You wake up to the ring of the alarm clock, and the day begins: Scrambled eggs and coffee, the ride to the office, work, the ride home, dinner, brushing your teeth, and thenâoff to bed. On the weekend, things are a bit more interestingâyou meet up with your friends at a bar, see a movie, and perhaps visit the park⦠But once in a while, you stop and wonder, âIs there some greater purpose to all this? Is life really about morning coffee, work, and visits

For most people, their lives are focused on the exte al world and their inner life consists mainly of brooding over or planning actions within that context.

We are asked to meditate and for most, the question arises, what is meditation? How do i do it and what is supposed to happen when I meditate.

To understand what is meant by the term ‘meditation’, Sri Aurobindo has provided a brief overview:

"God's the kind of guy you can trust," was my friend John's advice on a particularly bleak autumn morning. At the time, I probably gave him one of those oh-please-do-you-think-this-is-going-to-help-me-pay-my-bills looks. Sure, he could trust the Universe. He had a beautiful wife and a great family. He lived in a glorious home and took exotic vacations. He drove a BMW— with a car seat. He did not roll his grocery cart down the aisle bypassing the artichokes because they

How do medicines work? What exactly do they do in the body? How do we explain the effect of placebos, which are involved in a reasonably large percentage of cures? What about cases of spontaneous remission of disease? Is it possible to recover from “antibiotic resistant” bacterial diseases? Can the vital sheath be strengthened to prevent illness from entering the body?

“And Yes— With Practice This Can Be Done” To see the good in everything, seeing the joy in all things is an art-form… it takes practice. It’s too easy to see the bad in everything… and many people are doing that right now. This leads to stress, anxiety, fear, sadness, depression, and even thoughts of taking one’s life.

Smile with extreme joy that you are alive… and can enjoy another great day.
So Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him till daybreak. ( Gen. 32:24) When one has experienced the traumas of abandonment,rejection, betrayal and persecution, one's spirit is left feeling shattered, fractured, wounded and broken. One needs to be HEALED-held, embraced, approved, loved, empowered and delivered so that they can be renamed Hephzibah-God's delight and Beulah-married to the Lord. They can then be remade into the Holy People of the Lord, The Redeemed of

When I was given an opportunity to write about âLive in Presentâ that sounded daunting as I was not living in the present. I started off by using one of Param Pujya Dadashriâs principles of doing âSamayikâ â a process of introspection in oneâs life. During the introspection, I observed that when I talk to people, I am not present and keep thinking about how I will respond to that person or my mind wonders about other things that need to be resolved. I also reali

Pressure cooking is a very healthy way to cook food to preserve more nutrients and shorten the cooking time for beans, grains, and other foods. Here are a few wonderful attributes of pressure cooking. I personally have to say that for years I was against pressure cooking because I was under the notion that it was dangerous. And that all nutrients were lost with pressure cooking—but I was wrong. Todays modern digital pressure cookers are amazingly safe, easy to use, and retain more nutrients… that I had to change my mind.

Many people do not believe in rebirth. However, they do use words like lucky-unlucky OR good luck-bad luck. Now, these words directly suggest rebirth, donât they?... for on what basis would one person become lucky and another unlucky otherwise?

Mind is the part in our internal functioning mechanism where thoughts arise. This mind, on a daily basis, produces thousands of endless, repetitive thoughts. And not knowing how to deal with these thoughts, it creates such a turbulence within us, that we feel sick and tired of this mind, but canât find ways and means to come out of its clutch. Lord Krishna has said in the Gita that mind is the very cause for manâs bondage and mind is the cause for manâs freedom too. So
Pure water - let's drink to that! Our bodies are made up of cells which are 65-90% water by weight. Our brain is 80% water.

Simply turn on the tap and we can quench our thirst.

Here is a great spiritual secret: the only time we ever "fail" at anything in our lives is when we mistakenly walk away from what has challenged us before we've allowed it to teach us its secret ways. Imagine we want to learn a new skill; for fun, let's say we'd like to run the high hurdles (a lot like life, isn't it?). Perhaps we buy an instruction book; maybe go watch runners compete at the track. A good beginning, but eventually we must learn by doing; we must leap for our
The highest ideals of humanity can be looked at from the point of view of human capability or from the view of a divine purpose to the manifestation. The difference in viewpoint leads to different focus and result. From the human viewpoint, we would look at how to improve, perfect and optimize the capacities of our mind, life-energy and physical bodies. For the physical body, we see a strong emphasis on achieving new feats of physical fitness and performance, increasing the strength and resiliency of the body, and reaching new heights of human accomplishment.

Western psychology has been fixated on dreams and dream interpretation since the dream interpretation work of Sigmund Freud. C. G. Jung took the review of dreams deeper by exploring what he called the ‘collective unconscious’ and the archetypes and symbols that arise widely in dreams. Dreams have always had an outsized importance for people, and ancient cultures had shaman priests who were adept at interpreting dreams. Shakespeare attributed significance to dreams and used them as a way to move the story he was telling forward.

Wherever we focus attention, we create a direct relationship with the object of that attention. It may be through aspiration towards a higher consciousness, devotion to an ideal or through love for a revered guide or teacher; or it may be through the reaction of fear about some person, event or circumstance. However it comes about, this focus creates a beacon or signal to the object of focus to interact with us.
Many foods are vital to our life because they contain lots of Qi energy, while others deplete our energy. Here is a list of foods that help bring Qi energy into our body, and thus creating and maintaining youthful vigor… with energy over a life time. Greens - Greens are vital to the flow of Qi energy in the body. Take for example eating a nice green salad and waiting 5 minutes, soon we feel invigorated with energy to burn. When we eat heavy cooked foods we drag and that means a lack of vitality, and that in turn means a lack of Qi energy.

Businesses as well as customers rely on information e-mails and as the principal medium for communication. Email marketing is therefore a high priority for all forms and sizes of undertakings. Although comprehensive email strategies have been put in place, very few companies include the validation of email as a weapon. Dead-end e-mail accounts slowly block your contact lists and waste your time and dollars when sending messages that bounce back. Even a well-designed e-mail ma
Gratitude comes from essence—your truest Self. It is not the ego’s nature to be grateful but quite the opposite. When you feel gratitude, it is coming from essence. When you are feeling gratitude, it is helpful to acknowledge the gratitude and really allow yourself to feel it and to sustain it with positive statements that express the feeling in that moment. Essence is in love with all of life and bursting with joy over the miracle that it is. The ego dampens this
Everything that happens to you; everything from your past and everything in your future all relies on one simple thing: How do you choose to process that which happens to you? The way you choose to process everything that has or will happen to you makes up your entire experience of life.
