1351. A Celebration of Life By Diana Kennedy
      As human beings it is inherent to want to self-actualize and build lives of deep profound meaning. This is what each of us came here to do. One way we celebrate life is by getting clear on who we are and what we are here to do. When we are clear, we are able to tap into our purpose and find our passion. I believe that we discover that purpose through our relationship with our spiritual nature. Every person was designed with a purpose in mind. Our passion comes from learning to trust God and …



1352. What Does Jesus Expect? By Max Lucado
      While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. --ROMANS 5:8Expectations create conditional love. "I love you, but I’ll love you more if."Now I know what you’re thinking. Shouldn’t we expect the best out of one another? Shouldn’t we encourage each other to strive for excellence and never settle for anything else? Absolutely. But it was Christ who taught us how to use expectations. Does He demand a lot? You better believe it. Does He expect much? Only our best. Does He have expectations? Just …



1353. The 5 Elemental Codes: Seeing Your World Through the Eyes of Universal Understanding (Part 1) By Jeffrey Miller
      This article is the 1st part of an open response to a question that I encountered online a few years ago in one of the many Martial Arts Ninjutsu forums. The question (paraphrased) was:“What are the 5-elements (earth, wind, water, wood and metal) about that I have seen mentioned in books on ninjutsu?”As is so often the case when dealing with multiple personality types, egos, and the need for instructors to justify their positions and philosophies, the question went unanswered. What followed f…

Look at Psalms 40:6 it says Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but my ears you have pierced; burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not require. Then I said, Here I am, I have come—it is written about me in the scroll. I desire to do your will, O my God; your law is within my heart.

1369. Pure Consciousness By Aruna Ladva
      The removal of shoes before entering homes and sacred places is common for those in the East and also those who live in warmer climates. Is it because of the heat or for reasons of hygiene, or could there perhaps be a deeper significance behind this ordinary act?At holy places such as temples and mosques the shoes are left outside, not just to leave the dirt behind, but as a symbol of shedding a layer of the old consciousness of our physical, material identity. The custom represents removal …

2. Gods and Energy By Robert Morgen
An interesting question that frequently comes up is “Which Gods do you follow or worship?”My usual, and frequently misunderstood, answer is – “none and all of them”. I don’t debate the existence, validity or ‘good’ness or ‘bad’ness of any of the various deities. If you feel it and believe it then it’s real and it exists, if only for you. Energy work and spirituality are deeply personal areas of study and the simple fact is that thoughts have energy. When you direct your thoughts toward somethi…
