402. Osho- A Legend By Arvind Katoch
     Osho is a God or a Philosopher or a Guide or a Motivator or a Psychologist or a Friend. Answer to this question is simple, he is all. He is described as the modern Guru, who is much ahead of his times. This is true from his disclosers. He has more followers from abroad than as compared to Indian. Most of his followers are from the high class and are highly educated.He doesn’t have much fellowship in lower class, because he does not do any miracles. He doesn’t say us to follow anybody or him. H…

404. The Importance of Spirituality By Jeffry Palmer
     We live in a world which can best be described as a dystopia. The nation states of the world have devolved to an extent that social mobility in many regions of the planet is non-existent. The disparity between the “haves” and “have nots” grows globally at a steady and insidious pace.Veils of ignorance are fostered and encouraged by governments seeking control of the masses by means of instilled complacency. Pseudo-democratic regimes offer a higher standard of living only to those willing to sa…



405. Vision Quest Rock Art in BC's Stein Valley
     For 5,000 years the Stein Valley was like a university, where young natives came to learn the secrets of Mother Earth. When a boy or girl from one of the local native tribes was ready -- usually between the ages of ten and fifteen -- their puberty training would culminate with a vision quest in the Stein. Often the training would be instructed by a grandparent, a boy's grandfather or a girl's grandmother. Some of the exercises the youth might undergo included prayers, purification rites, fastin…

407. Why Good Things Happen to Bad People By Saundra L. Washington
     One cannot ask why bad things happen to good people without also feeling the same tinge of injustice when we contemplate why good things happen to bad people. This is the question that anguished the Psalmist. He found himself in terrible distress and agony of soul. He says, “My feet had almost slipped; I had nearly lost my foothold.”The Psalmist was experiencing a very old problem; one that is still with us today. He had begun to observe the prosperity of the wicked. He began to notice that th…



408. Accepting Non-Acceptance By Lois Grant-Holland
     It's not always easy to stand in the midst of a group of people (particularly if those people are people that we have known and are attached to emotionally) and be different. To think differently, to believe differently, to respond differently, to live a different life than our friends and our family are living is, in a sense, the "toughest challenge" of manifesting our spiritual self. The threat inherent to this situation is that those we love, those we care about, those we have always depend…

410. Change Your Outlook on Change By Charlene Proctor
     Make no mistake about it, change is challenging whether it is conscious or unexpected. Viewing adversity as change, not loss or failure, is part of empowered and positive thinking. Humans develop resiliency through change, both physiologically, and emotionally. It’s necessary for all life forms to evolve. Change comes though many vehicles – some hit us hard, others are rather sneaky. But despite the challenges change brings, we know it is our natural state. It’s inevitable – the world gr…



411. Reiki: A Spiritual Healing Energy
     Among the ever growing accepted fields in alternative healing today is that of Reiki (pronounced 'Ray-key'). Reiki is a Japanese word that means 'universal life force.' This healing energy is the universal life force energy that has been around forever, but was 're-discovered' in the late 1800's by Mikao Usui. Usui sought to understand the nature of how to heal others by laying on of hands as was taught in the holy scriptures. His journey eventually took him to a mountain top in Japan where he m…

413. The Power of Namaste' By D.S. Braun
     I honestly am not sure why this hit me so strongly, but it did."Namastè is a salutation which essentially means that I greet and acknowledge the God-Spirit that resides within you."Ram Dass describes it this way [Namastè means] "I honor the place in you in which the entire universe dwells. I honor the place in you which is of love, of truth, of light, and of peace. When you are in that place in you, and I am in that place in me, we are one.""This greeting is usually done with a gesture of h…

     A year ago, a beautiful woman came to see me. Her husband had been cheating on her and she wanted some advice regarding her future. Even though her eyes were dull, shoulders drawn and her face sad, I managed to look beyond that. Did you know that when you go "beyond", you can create new things?I told her to go look in my bathroom mirror. She came back and I asked her what she saw. "A fool" she replied. I told her that she needs glasses and to go look again. And again. By the third time she was…

416. How to Hear from God By Daniel N. Brown

Unfortunately, there are always three voices in every ones head at any given time; God’s voice, the devil’s voice, and the voice of our own flesh. So, how are we to be sure to hear from God with all the noise going on?It really is very simple. If we want to hear from God, we need to shut up the other two.

417. The Hand of God By Jim Donovan
     There I was living in a tiny bedroom in my parent’s not-so-large, five room apartment. I had, as they say, "run out of options." My life was out of control, way out. Had it not been for mom and dad’s willingness to let me stay with them, I would have been homeless living in Central Park or another one of New York City’s fine parks. Years of rampant excess had brought me to my knees.I would lay awake at night, unable to sleep, pleading with God to help me. I prayed, begged and bargained for my …



418. What Animal Communicators Do By Nedda Wittels
     Many people are awakening today to the idea that the animals who live with us are more than child substitutes, more than "pets". The term "pet" means an animal who lives with us for our amusement or as our companion. All animals are, in fact, sentience beings - conscious, intelligent, with life purposes and life goals. They are aware of themselves and of their situations. They make life choices. They often express unconditional love for the humans who are part of their families.For most …



419. How Shall We Then Live? By Saundra L. Washington
     Qohelet had grown old with time when he delivered his Ecclesiastes and it has since become part of the wisdom literature of the Bible. And it is because of his many years of experience that he adopted the doctrine that all is meaningless, utterly meaningless.If you were to read Ecclesiastes for the first time, you would probably consider it a rather anomalous account of a man’s thoughts to be found in the Bible. We are disturbed by its lack of literary unity as well as Qohelet’s strange saying…

421. Learning the Secret of Contentment (Part 2) By Saundra L. Washington
     Paul’s encouragement to the Philippians is also our encouragement. Consider his afflictions and trials: - I was beaten 5 times by the Jews with a whip- 3 times I was beaten with rods- Once I was stoned- 3 times I was shipwrecked- On many of my missionary journeys, I was in danger from rivers, danger from robbers, dangers from my own people, danger from Gentiles, danger in the city, danger in the wilderness, danger at sea, danger from backstabbers.- I have been in toil and hardship constan…



422. Mastery of Awareness
     Life is filled with all kinds of adventures and experiences, gifts and magic. Of all the gifts I have ever received in this life time, the gift of the mastery of awareness is the one I treasure the most. You might ask why that gift would exceed all others. After all, wasn't that diamond ring wonderful and that fabulous sports car I received fine? Wasn't that incredible vacation or that great work bonus awesome? Of course I have gratitude for all the gifts life sends my way. Yet I've come to und…

3. The True Self as the Hidden Man of the Heart By Stephen Earl
The Apocalypse, or unveilling, is the name given to the Book of Revelation in the New Testament. The Book of Daniel is an apocalypse. So is Isaiah. The entire bible is an unveiling of the consciousness of man evolving from the human(OT) to the divine(NT).Scripture is progressive revelation of the true self as the hidden man of the heart.

I was eavesdropping on the other passengers’ conversation as we waited for more passengers to fill that small jitney at Market-Market Mall at around 10 o’clock PM giving me a glimpse of their lives. It’s no big deal, however, for these are no private but only casual conversations of salesperson’s experiences of the day; besides, there are no other things to catch my attention.We love stories like Peter Pan, Cinderella, Snow White, and more. We love watching good movies and in every good movie …
