226. Kundalini and 'Enlightenment' By Robert Morgen
     We all hear of the concept of the "Enlightened Master", and I do believe they exist.However, awakened kundalini DOES NOT automatically make one an enlightened master. It just means that you've begun to access your inner energies and begin creating your life as you intended to live it when you came back here.Awakening the kundalini is NOT the end result or the goal. It's just a waypoint on your spiritual/emotional/physical development. It's like crossing a river. Now you're on the other side, b…



227. Are you Bringing Light or Discord? By Barbara Rose, Ph.D.
     We are living in highly challenged times. Our mass consciousness directly reflects the discord in which many of us find ourselves within our own personal lives.Humanity, as a whole, cannot rise above our current level of negativity and discord until we do so on a deeply personal level.I ask you to take a scrutinizing look at the current state of your personal affairs, and the level of accord, or discord, you are currently engaged in with those who have been dearest to you in your own life.Have…

229. The Power Of The Noticer By M. Christopher Wilson, Sr
     Man is the only creature God created that can think about what they are thinking! This is important to know, because before we can bring our thoughts into the obedience of Christ we have to cultivate the habit of monitoring our thoughts.When faced with situations it so important that we that love the Lord be willing to be very discipline in our spirits so as to portray the proper image of Christ at all times.What I want to share with you is a thought that I got from my study of the book "Your …



230. God Versus the Gods By Robert Baird
     Aristotle referred to happiness as the most we can achieve. Demons and gods were interchangeable in the time of Homer when people had far less institutionalized manipulation of their thoughts and soulful understandings. What is the ‘anima’ referred to by Aristotle and other sages?It is easy to be happy without all the things we obsess over. The balance of our constituent selves and the possibility of participation in creating a whole, or in conjunction with that WHOLE is going to be hard to be…

234. An In-depth Look at Understanding Your Dreams
     Understanding your dreams can be far easier when you know how to approach them. After interpreting dreams over that last 15 years, I've found it important to keep in mind the importance of 3 main ingredients in making dreams more understandable and therefore, more useful to the dreamer. What the point of interpreting a dream if you do not relate it you to, the dreamer? That is what these three main aspects will aid you in accomplishing. The first aspect is the universal dream symbology. It has b…

236. What is Personal Growth? By Lynn Claridge
     I have been asked many times, what is personal growth? or how can I grow as a person?Well, I thought maybe I should try and answer this question.You deepest fear is not that you are inadequate your deepest fear is that you are powerful.It is the light and not the darkness that most frightens us.A question you could ask yourself is am I brilliant, gorgeous, talented or fabulous?The answer is actually, who’s to say your not?There is nothing enlightening about shrinking so that other people won’t…



237. The Darkness of December Can Bring Us Together
     'The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.' (Gospel of John) 'The lamps are different, but the Light is the same.' (Rumi) 'Only in the darkness can you see the stars.' Martin Luther King, Jr. Here in the northern hemisphere, December plunges us into deepening darkness as the days grow shorter, culminating in the longest night of the year on December 21st. And for that reason, several major religions choose this time of year for celebrations of light. For example, Pa…



238. The Blessing of the Lord Makes One Rich By Daniel N. Brown
     Have you ever found yourself being super frustrated trying to do something and not getting anywhere? It seems no matter how hard you try it doesn't seem to work.Wherever there is an anointing on something for you to do, there should be an "ease" about it. I don't mean it should be easy, but there should be a sense of "simpleness."Here's a good example; a person may be in a job situation that they may not particularly care for. In fact, they may absolutely hate what they are doing and maybe eve…

     'O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God!...' (Romans 11:33)'So shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto thy soul: when thou hast found it, then there shall be a reward, and thy expectation shall not be cut off.'(Proverbs 24:14)Every search is always a product of a need. In the same vein, every discovery is also a product of a search. In my journey on the path of greatness, I discovered seven applicable truths of life which many of us have hitherto unconsciously ignored …

241. The Sign That Reveals Your Mind By Randall Curtis
     Here is an example: At the time Joe was born his Mercury was passing through the zodiac sign of Taurus. This simply means that his thinking mind is strongly influenced by the tendencies of Taurus. This reveals that he is attached to money, food, sex, going slowly, taking it easy, keeping things the way they are, and resisting sudden ideas and sudden changes. This is why astrologers call Taurus a "fixed" sign. People with Mercury in Taurus have great resistance to changing their mind. T…



242. Home of God By Premansu Chand
     The first hymn of Isha Upanishad says - whatever living beings inhabit the world here, God resides in all of them; enjoy what is given by Him and don't seek other's wealth.All religious people believe in God, who resides in heaven. It is their common belief that God gives health, happiness and success in life. Only He can rescue them from all trouble. For this they worship God in temples, churches and mosques and pray for mercy.To such religious people, Isha Upanishad tells that God resides on…



243. Spiritual Healing - The Hidden Truth and Misconception By Joseph Ghabi
     Throughout history, what is portrayed in all religions as being the manifestation of prayer or miracles is in fact manifestation of our connection with the essence of our Soul and the manifestation of the power of spiritual healing. We have heard throughout the centuries about such miracles that have happened to people, and how they changed their lives. This has carried on until now when we still hear of these ‘miracles’ in our time today. What would be the difference between a miracle that ha…



244. Mind Walls By Saundra L. Washington
     Walls as a blockade seem to be an integral part of our society. Almost from the beginning of man’s pilgrimage here on earth, there have been walls which have bound and imprisoned mankind. These walls are designed supposedly to protect our society, to safeguard us from taboo and abnormal personality traits. But it should be considered that mankind down through the ages has deliberately and voluntarily erected walls to shut out segments of society.Isaac Newton keenly observed that “we build too …

246. Readjusting Our Eye Focus By Saundra L. Washington
     Peter is a man after my own heart. I feel a certain bond with him. Perhaps, it is because he reminds me of myself at times and my friends and family at other times. Or it could be that I see Peter in all of us as we walk the Christian path and strive to serve Christ obediently, and yet, possessing shortcomings that can become our own stumbling stones.We commend Peter for attempting what we might consider the impossible. Water, after all, is not cement or paved road. But he did actually walk fo…



247. So None of Us Arrived With an Owner's Manual! A Fresh Perspective on the Drive to Lead (part 1) By Rosemary Johnston
     So, none of us arrived with an Owner’s Manual, neatly referenced to enable us to look up our ails, appreciate where we are, and, understand what is next. We expected its indelible validation to enable us to navigate some of the more fearful and exhilarating moments in our lives.Most of us have a deeply felt need for one to give us the courage to look into a few dark corners and understand what is really going on. A validated abbreviated version would do, anything that says, “ I was intended …

249. Man A Body, A Soul And A Spirit
     Paul wrote by inspiration to the Thessalonian believers: 'And the 'very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and 1 pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ' (I Thes. 5:23). Surely the apostle was not praying here for the sanctification of the body and its life and the breath that produced it, for the physical life need not be sanctified and the breath that produced it was of God. Furthermore, if such a prayer were possible, it woul…



250. Wings of a Dove By Saundra L. Washington
     Perhaps one of the most wonderful assertions that can be made about Holy Scriptures is that it clearly shows man in all his humanness. If you really want to understand yourself, if you really desire to know who you are, then it would behoove you to study the sacred Writ and let God speak to your soul.When we read David’s Psalms (55:6), we immediately sense his state of emotional being. He is hurting deeply. Not physically, but emotionally and spiritually. His soul is heavy; his spirit is at an…

2. What Is Wrong With Being Common? By C.L. Mareydt
The Emmaus Journal What is Wrong With Being Common? This questioning title has tenaciously lingered in my mind for the past few months. Precociously tethered within a shallow stigma and pushed to the cliff of distasteful obsolescence; it seemingly mustered one final effort within my mind to be heard. It's voice almost now a muted whisper bends my mind into a straining listening poise. I begin to sense a long lived pain and deepening sorrow for a passing away of what once use to be. In…

This Universal Prayer To The Angels can be used to address any of the seven archangels. It is based loosely on Elizabeth Claire Prophet’s prayer structure, that I have personally found to be extremely …

4. The Divine Self By Nick Arrizza, M.D.
Many look outside of themselves for an experience of the Divine. Many turn to religions. Others invoke "inner guides" or a "higher self". I would like to propose that the Divine is not only inside you, it is You!Now I know that some may squirm at this idea. Others will be skeptical. Others still will outright reject it. I only ask, if you have the courage and the desire to have a true experience of who you really are, to follow me further on this journey to an experience of the Divine, i.e. yo…
