  • Enlightenment and Material Riches: Is There a Spiritual Conflict? - Those of us who are on the path of enlightenment and desire to abide by holistic living principles in health, awareness, wisdom, and lifestyle are often faced with a spiritual conflict. The spiritual conflict faced by many who practice holistic living has always centered on whether or not one can have money and material riches and still be spiritual. So, many people often wonder: "Can I enjoy the experiences of wealth through material riches and live holistically. Do I have to make a choice between being rich and the path of enlightenment? Furthermore, does spirituality discourage the experience of material riches?
  • The Power Of A Co-Creator Pt. 2: Courage In The Face Of Fear - The power of a co-creator is an enlightening experience in itself. As we experience the transformation process on the path of enlightenment, we discover just how our role as a co-creator will empower us to succeed. In the article, The Power of a Co-creator Pt.1: No Stumbling Blocks for Success, we discussed how there is nothing blocking our success when we choose the path of enlightenment and let go of the entrapments of the ego.
  • The Power of a Co-Creator Pt.1: No Stumbling Blocks For Success - Once we begin to experience the transformation process on the path of enlightenment, we become co-creators with the universe. Before the transformation process, we created out of default, but now as a co-creator, we create with the universe. Ultimately, this means that we have caught the vision of God or Source Energy. What is the vision? The vision is God or Source Energy as you. With this realization, you get the answer to...who am I, what is my purpose, and why am I here? Experiencing the power of a co-creator brings magnificence to life.
  • The Road to Enlightenment - The path of enlightenment is not one that is easily traveled. For thousands of years, people have sought after the secrets of life, so that they may be content in all that they do. Some have reached the elevated spiritual levels that they sought after, while sadly most of us have not. To travel down the road of spirituality, one must be prepared to handle things that come their way whether they are negative or positive. Not all of us are capable of handling such an intense journey.
  • Is The Law Of Attraction Real? - Many people who are new to The Secret want to know if it’s “real.” That is, whether there is some simple physical mechanism that makes good things happen simply as a result of positive thinking. The answer could thoughtfully be yes, no and maybe, all at the same time.
  • Finding Inner Peace - It’s becoming one of the biggest trends of the 21st century to seek out Enlightenment and inner peace.
  • 14 Buddha Quotes To Celebrate The Birth Of Enlightenment - Once in a rare while a man is born who changes the world for the better and Buddha quotes are a prime example of why Buddha was one of these men. As the founder of Buddhism and one of the few truly enlightened people to ever walk the face of the earth, let's celebrate the upcoming birthday of this legendary teacher. 1. "A dog is not considered a good dog because he is a good barker. A man is not considered a good man because he is a good talker." 2. "All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think we become." 3.
  • The Journey From Head to Heart - A sculptor was once asked how he created such marvelous results from the stone he worked. He replied, "If I want to carve an elephant in stone, I simply chip away all of the stone that does not look like an elephant." The artist's creative process involved finding the inherent qualities of the stone and revealing them to the eye.
  • Praxeology And The New Age Of Enlightenment - Praxeology - The Science of Human Action Praxeology (Human Action) is the study of individuals and their actions. Unfortunately, the term and the science are pretty much unknown. The reason for this is that the enemies of liberty and freedom would prefer that you didn't learn anything about it. If you understood the laws of human action you would demand an end to the disastrous policies that absolute moralists and other enemies of the individual have foisted upon "society." The decadence and decay you see in our institutions is the swan song of an age that's passing by. Of course, the ones in power don't have any desire to relinquish their privileged positions.

  • Spirituality - Journey In The Fields Of Forever ( Part 99 ) - “I suppose you believe that’s God’s fault?” Gideon asked. “Someone once said,‘God is simple. All else is complex.’ Yes,of course,it’s simplicity itself, but within its simplicity are powers too majestic and invincible to comprehend.Let me put it another way. When there’s a relationship of absolute trust between you and your God, many things start to happen.
  • Experiencing Total Bliss And Serenity Of Being - The ultimate aim of all human beings is to experience the state of total bliss and serenity of Being. Some call it Nirvana which is an aspect of enlightenment. Nirvana is the highest happiness. It is not the kind of happiness that is temporal and fleeting based on earthly issues. It is eternal happiness that comes from enlightened consciousness. In that moment of realization about the truth of all reality and the recognition of self and universal power, one attains the feeling of ultimate bliss, freedom, power and peace. The purpose of acquiring power is so that you can do what you want, and protect yourself from harm.
  • Reincarnation Is Return Of Soul Information - There are people who believe that reincarnation is the process by which a human being is reborn into the physical world after having died. They believe that the soul of the person leaves behind memories of the past life in the unconscious mind, but takes with them characteristics and personality traits into the new life. So a person doesn't only live once, but lives several lifetimes through cycles of birth and rebirth. But the truth about reincarnation can be realized by understanding the two aspects of the soul.
  • Get Yourself An Inner Peace Coach! - Every sports professional that ever lived had a good coach at one time or another. A coach is not always someone who excels at the game but someone who at least knows the strategies and can teach you a lot about your own game before you go out on your own. Spiritual growth is not much different from a sport. They both require a lot of spirit and a good coach to help you learn the ropes.
  • Seekers of Truth Take Note - Announcing a New Age of Enlightened Understanding. For the first time in the history of mankind a quantum mechanical interpretation of the Bible is being offered to the masses. Representing a holistic world view of such incredible magnificence that words must fail to do justice to the magnitude of this technology. However intricate all this may sound, it is actually presented in easy to understand, no nonsense common language. Although this technology itself is complex and cumbersome, the distinctions made thereby are simple, direct and to the point. Just as you do not have to be a mechanic to drive a car;
  • The Importance of Being You - Like a lot of people in our materialistic society, I used to identify myself by what I had. That is to say that I believed that who I was was determined by my possessions. I used to subscribe to the myth now prevalent that having "stuff" was the route to happiness. Paradoxically, the more I possessed, the less content I found myself. In 2003 I began to ask myself why this was. After my marriage of 20 years became untenable and we divorced, I found myself in an entirely new position where I could no longer sustain the lifestyle that I had endured before.
  • Life Experiences - Choice - Karma - Unconditional Love - Part 5 - The ultimate goal of the soul is to seek, to experience, and to understand the marvelous wonder of existence. Enlightenment is achieved when one finds perfection and unconditional love in all experiences. This progresses through eons of time, with each lifetime gaining, unfolding, and developing new awareness—every experience of every lifetime adds to the whole of the soul. You are forever expanding and accumulating information consciously and unconsciously. Although our physical being does not, the soul remembers in perfect detail every experience ever had; every thought ever thought; every word, feeling, smell, scene, and taste ever known. It all is categorized and remembered.
  • Understanding Transcendental Meditation - Transcendental Meditation is a meditation technique introduced in 1958 by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. It is a simple, natural, relatively effortless meditation technique where the mind can easily and naturally look into the source of thought and achieving the settled state of the mind which is known as the Transcendental Consciousness. It is said to be the pure consciousness which is the source of all creative processes in the human mind.
  • How Does The Law of Vibration Affect Us? - The law of vibration states that we are made up of an expansive sea of vibrating molecules, particles, atoms and sub-atomic particles that our body, our thoughts and our spirit are made up of. The "God" concious mind always keeps its vibration level in alignment with that of pure light & love, which is a very fast speed of pure creation. I believe that our purpose on earth is to learn to raise our vibrational levels, by living on purpose and manifesting what we desire, through doing loving actions to ourseles and others. You see, when we chose to visit this earth (and separate from our source of pure energy), we moved from high vibration (spirit) to a denser form of vibration (human form).
  • How to Truly Travel - Being local has its benefits. If your particular locality has long since been developed, with plenty of accommodations, then there should be many places to go, and many things to see. And in the case of a not so developed locality, well, perhaps that may be for the best, as not everyone prefers an urbanized environment. Yet, depending on the personality of the person, any local environment can grow stale, like a familiar coat that needs to be aired out.
  • What Is Advaita Or Oneness - Advaita means nondual or “not two.” This oneness is a fundamental quality of everything. Everything is a part of and made of one substance. Often the question arises, If it is all one thing why don’t I experience it that way? This is confusing oneness for the appearance of sameness. Things can appear different without being separate.
  • 5 Sure Fire Ways To Battle Insecurity - First we are pushed out from our mother's womb, then we are passed around from person to person like a hot potato. Next we are subjected to going to some strange place with other strange youngsters, while Mommy and Daddy go off to work. It just gets scarier after that.
  • The Plight of the Enlightened and the Unenlightened – Resistance, Opposition and Higher Awareness - How difficult the search for truth and enlightenment can be. In fact the path can seem so impassable that many give up without further effort. An enlightened teacher may have hundreds or even thousands of students—but only a small percentage obtains a glimpse of all the possibilities that could unfold before them. The physical world of everyday reality presents many challenges to all who reside on our planet. Unfortunately, some are so unaware of what may exist beyond their immediate awareness that they only believe what is right in front of them—and some aren’t even aware of that. They never become equipped to handle the concerns of the past, present or future in an effective manner. They live what Henry David Thoreau calls “lives of quiet desperation.” The enlightened individual resides in a higher state of awareness.
  • Practising Lucid Dreaming As A Method Of Exercising Control Over The Subconscious - For the Law of Attraction, as presented in the video, “The Secret,” to work optimally, one needs to exercise mental control over both the conscious and sub-conscious mind. While many would say they can't be held accountable for what they dream, much evidence would suggest that not only does one have control over their dreams, but that it may be a key component in mastering your intent upon what may the most important level.
  • Jewish Dharma (The Practice of Judaism and Zen) - Today a great spiritual hunger is surfacing as many seek comfort, support, and meaning in a world that has spun out of control. Yet, times of loneliness, confusion, fear, or separation come for a powerful reason—so we can stop our usual way of being and discover where true strength, connection, and understanding lie.
  • Life Experiences - Choice - Karma - Unconditional Love - Part 2 - Choice Choice, or free will, refers to how you choose to relate to your life's conditions. You can always choose your reaction to any given circumstance, which means that variables can change instantaneously with each choice. Your choices have direct impact on both your physical life and on the growth of your soul. Each lifetime will grant you a different perspective and facilitate new awareness. Each will provide physical experience for the soul. You may spend several lifetimes experiencing the hardships of life without any inclination to seek God or enlightenment;
  • What Is The Spiritual Function Of Desire? - This is another tricky and in-depth subject which needs at least a summary exploration.
  • Two Possibilities: Happiness Or Suffering - In every moment, there are two possibilities. One possibility is to have all of our curiosity, attention, and passion focused on what is happening. The other, is to have that same curiosity, attention, and passion focused on what is not happening, what is not present, or what we think should or shouldn’t be happening.
  • Viral Happiness - If it's true that we get more of what we focus upon then maybe we need to take charge of our thinking and laugh our way to abundance If you think negatively this will bring more dark thoughts and the kind of results...
  • Everything Is Truly Going Your Way At All Times - Things are really going your way, even though it may not be the way you think things should go. Everything is happening for you. Everything is happening according to your higher choices which are the choices the real you has made.
  • How To Find To Happiness - Many inspirational books and personality development materials are available in different bookstores to encourage each individual to take the first step towards spiritual enlightenment, development and growth.
  • How To Reach A Higher State Of Consciousness - Higher states of consciousness are naturally interesting to people because we all inherently know that things are simply easier to understand when we aren’t lost in our usual day to day problems that plague us from day to day. There are rare experiences when we are able to see the higher meaning of our lives and these moments help us to achieve greater clarity and value in the things we do. In addition to the higher value and clarity that we can all achieve in a higher state of consciousness, we can also alleviate the negative feelings that come from our normal day to day routine.
  • Finding Tutors Online - If you are looking for a math tutor then you should not worry. Worrying will only make your life worse and your problems even harder.
  • Truth About The World And Myth Of Changing It - We have been taught that one of the greatest aspirations a human being can live up to is to change the world. It seems like the most noble cause of all. But most people who try to change the world are not doing it in the right way, in fact they are actually making things worse. It is because most people don't know the truth about the world and the myth of changing it. There is a reason why the world is the way it is, and when we learn to see it, we become enlightened about the illusion and how to be free of it. The single reason that explains the state of the world is that we create our reality. The world is the way it is because of collective consciousness.
  • New Age Spirituality – Morning Has Been All Night Coming ( Part 41 ) - As if reading my thoughts, he said, “We all must learn sooner or later to respond instead of react.
  • Realise the illusion of problems - This article is about something of such profound and beautiful simplicity. We attempt to trigger your own realization of your ability to relieve absolutely any problem you can imagine.

The pointers that we will use as a vehicle involve the realization of the present moment, the illusion of past and future and the controllable reality of your thought processes.

  • Living on the Curve - There is an urban legend that only few college students today know about. It is said that if your roommate commits suicide then you will get straight A's. Faculty would understand that you are too emotionally distraught and traumatized to really focus on school after losing such a close friend. What is frightening about this urban legend is that some students are actually so competitive that they consider staging their roommate's death.

  • Ordinary and Non-Ordinary Reality – Higher Awareness - In Carlos Castaneda’s book “The Teachings of Don Juan: A Yaqui Way of Knowledge” and his subsequent works he imparts much knowledge about the states of Ordinary and Non-Ordinary Reality. In the following I am supplying my interpretation of these states of knowing. Ordinary Reality Some people claim that Ordinary Reality is a low level of existence. I don’t necessarily agree with that assessment, although it is a much lower level than Non-Ordinary Reality. After all this level of existence is necessary if you are going to experience life on Earth. If you couldn’t experience Ordinary Reality you would be dead (not existing in the physical world). Ordinary Reality is what is obvious to the senses. It is almost a perceptual way of living.
  • Yoga Primer 101 - Recently, I joined the gym (make that re-joined the gym!). Part of the sign up procedure (a.k.a. marketing funnel) is to offer a free session with a personal trainer. Always eager to improve my knowledge of resistance training, I signed up for a session. I was surprised to learn that my daily yoga practice will shorten my recovery time when training. In fact, my trainer mentioned that he himself (a champion Extreme Fighter) would be adding yoga to his training routine. Yoga supports a holistic approach to medicine, and thereby fitness.

  • Desiring What Is - The Buddha said that desire is the cause of all suffering—the root of all suffering. Desire is a very powerful force. It’s got to be if it’s going to have that much power that it can cause all of the suffering in the world.
  • 10 Grey's Anatomy Quotes to Celebrate The Grey's Addiction - If you're a Grey's addict like I am, anytime is a good time for Grey's Anatomy quotes. Never seen the show? You don't know what your missing! Whether you're a long-time fan or someone who wants some insight into what the show is about, here are ten Grey's Anatomy quotes that are sure to whet your palate. “I can't think of a single reason why I should be a surgeon, but I can think of a thousand reasons why I should quit.

  • Energy Is Created by Your Beliefs and Thoughts - An energy field surrounds everything. Energy pulses out from objects, interacting with and absorbing other energies.

Understanding the electrical and magnetic nature of energy is important to understanding healing.
  • How To Find The Best Car Dealers In Your Area - Top 5 Tips - Buying a car would be made easier, more reasonable and more convenient if you would just prefer to buy from the best car dealers. However, because of the numerous car dealers currently operating in the market, it can be inevitable for consumers to feel a little pressure and confusion when finding and choosing one.

  • Feeling Peaceful: End State Energy In In-Depth NLP - When we consider how we want to be as a person, we might say powerful, or exciting, or confident. However these are states that we can enjoy only for a period of time. Nobody feels powerful all the time, or exciting, or confident. If we felt powerful all the time we would likely be exhausted. So when we think about how we want to be as a person, we come to the realization that our ultimate state is something less energetic. We can be peaceful, or calm, or loving.
  • Coaching Wisdom - Imagine the buzz in the room of 1500 individuals from 40 different countries at the 2007 International Coach Federation conference in Long Beach, CA. Each of these coaches has selected a profession that creates heightened possibilities for their clients. An estimated 30,000 coaches practice throughout the world today. Personal and business coaching is an ongoing professional relationship that helps people produce extraordinary results in their lives, careers, businesses or organizations. It can add value to your life.
  • Objectivism Has a Date With New Age Spirituality - Some would shockingly exclaim "Objectivism dating New Age Spirituality-you've got to be kidding!" Others would speak about the incompatibility of the two. A few might state "Opposites do attract. That's the nature of the universe." Mystics of the New Age school of thought may supply us with this bit of wisdom "Like attracts like. That is the nature of existence. They will repel each other." Romantics (probably not of the Objectivist persuasion) would find excitement in the possibility of strange bedfellows mating. I know some Objectivists are thinking that I'm out of my mind-that is if I still have one that is functioning. New Age mystics are wondering why I give any credence to that heartless "philosophy." As difficult as it is to believe-they are not incompatible.
  • What is Losing Weight Too Fast - There are many things that you can do too much of but this does not apply to things that the body controls. You cannot sleep too much, only as long as you need to. Some depressed people sleep 12 hours per day. You can fast too long or exercise too much. The reason that you cannot sleep too long is because you cannot control how long you sleep. You can control how little you get but not how much you get. If you doubt this, then try it. Try to sleep 20 hours. You can lie there for 20 hours but will only be asleep if your body decides that you need it. Note that I am not talking about stage 1 sleep where you are drowsy and trying to get to sleep but you are not really sleeping.
