- 2007-11-13 22:16:19 - Failure is never as painful as regret!
- "I would rather regret some of my failures in life than to live my life failing to forget my regrets." GRIn other words, failing at something and getting back up is much less painful than to look back and regret not doing something (or doing something) and not being able to go back and change the outcome. Each one of us has failed at something in life, some of us more than others. Some of o...

- I have been counseling people on weight loss, exercise efficiency and nutrition for over twenty years. Every time I go to the gym I observe people, their training tactics and their workout habits. Over the last few years I have noticed something about certain people in the gym that has been interesting. You would think more people would do this but they don't. What I have noticed is certain people...

- One of the saddest times in any child's life is when for some reason they think one or both or their parents are going to be taken from them. In the mid-nineties on one of their tours Naomi Judd announced to the world that she had hepatitis and would retire from the country music business. Leaving her daughter Wynonna to sing on her own for the first time in her life.I'm sure Wynonna could ...

- John Eldredge writes in his book Waking the Dead, "God what do you have for my heart today?" He continues by saying, "you may be stunned by what he guides you into.I began the day at six in the morning asking God, "What do you have for my heart today Lord." I had a few minutes to spare this morning (very unusual) so I had a cup of coffee at Starbucks. During that time a brainstorm came to m...

And that my existence as grotesque a...

- In the movie "A Beautiful Mind" John Nash (played by Russell Crowe) is a schizophrenic math genius who struggles with is inability to have peace of mind. In one scene he bangs his head on the window until it bleeds, begging his mind to slow down, all the while having a conversation with his imaginary roommate, Charles.Now hopefully none of us are schizo (and if you are keep it to ...

- 2007-11-13 22:16:19 - In the aftermath of mankind
- It is life, time for breathing deep, sighs and touching without fingers. Hummingbirds whizzing by my ears, the striking fear of that buzzing sound, so large and loud. Only they can scare me.Ground squirrels like the cutest babies, curious and bold. Sitting on their tails, eating seeds so fast, my eyes water while trying to behold their skills. Oh my heart loves to be there with them. They l...

- 2007-11-13 22:16:19 - Gods and energy
- 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 ...

- 2007-11-13 22:16:19 - Our god of more than enough
- There is no shortage in the abundance of blessings we are promised as God's children. We should expect to receive from Him if we believe the promises He's given us in His Word. To believe otherwise is to show that we have no confidence in God's word. This would indicate that we believe that He lied when He gave us these promises and throughout the Bible, we are told over and over again that God ca...

- *Advice on living a humane and compassionate life.According to text in the Bible, King Solomon had spoken with God and asked for divine wisdom. As time passed by, King Solomon was approached by two mothers. Both women resided in the same house, both bore children three days apart from one another, and they were both alone in the home together. When the women came to Solomon, one implored, "...

- It's late. But it's usually those words that you cannot sleep without getting down that are the ones worth saying the most?these moments are few and far between- especially when one learns that it is better to listen than to speak.I've been doing much listening lately. I recently accepted a position at a Psychiatric Unit at a local hospital. My job as Counselor is to work with children and ...

- 2007-11-13 22:16:19 - The true self as the hidden man of the heart
- 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. This veiled man is a manifestion of the Christ in eve...

- "In the sixth century of the sixth millennium, the gates of supernal [heavenly] wisdom will be opened, as will the wellsprings of earthly wisdom, preparing the world to be elevated in the seventh millennium." The Zohar (a source text of Kabbalah)TRY SAYING THESE WORDS TO YOURSELF:Depressed, sad, afraid, guilty, alone, weak, fragmented, disconnected, weary, helpless, victimized, threa...

- "Our mind is capable of passing beyond the dividing line we have drawn for it. Beyond the pairs of opposites of which the world consists, new insights begin." --Herman HesseDoorways, portals, gates and thresholds have served throughout history as the potent objects and symbols of superstition, rites and rituals (1), psychological development, and transcendent religious experience....

- Have you ever wondered how much faith you really have? If you are like me there have been times in your life when you question how much faith you have: times when you doubt your ability to cope with personal difficulties, and times when the threat of terrorism or natural disasters feels overwhelming. This is the time to strip away your inhibitions and use your imagination to find more faith....

- I have sent out hundreds of press releases for my new book entitled Hook Line and Sinker or What Has Your Church Been Teaching You, published by Publish America of Baltimore MD. It has been a great learning experience for me.The reaction to these releases has been amazing. If I were mentally unstable I'm sure they would be coming to lock me up even before I could finish this article. Most r...

- 2007-11-13 22:16:19 - You must feel to heal!
- In my work with clients who have physical illnesses there is one consistent observation that I keep running up against. That is the inability to feel one's emotions.Emotions such as sadness, hurt, disappointment, loss, and abandonment which result from ongoing trauma in one's life remains stored in memory fragments that live in one's consciousness or bio-field. These feelings act as a remin...

- 2007-11-13 22:16:19 - Your gift and talent is not for you!
- Although your creative ability and talent is something that God has given TO you, it's primary purpose is not meant FOR YOU only. God's purpose for your gift is to be a benefit or solution for someone else who needs it. What this means to you as an artist is that the pursuit and development of your talent is important because there is someone out there who needs what you can do. God foresaw to equ...

- 2007-11-13 22:16:19 - God - a thousand words wasted
- Who is God? This question would sound awkward to 80% of us. Moreover, this question would infuriate all of this 80%. I though, do not have any intentions to hurt or disrespect their sentiments. As for the residual 20%, some people do not believe in God and the rest would like to believe in God but do not find any reason why to do so. Let's talk.Who created this Earth? If we do not try to ex...

- Does God care if I marry a gentile?Even as I started dating a Chinese girl, I knew I was embarking on a remarkable adventure. I just had no idea where and how far the adventure would take me. The more events unfolded, the more I realized that my view of the world and how I lived in it were being profoundly and permanently altered...If the problem with marrying a gentile was th...

- The time has come for the mass population on Earth to respond with each of your Divine ability to connect to your Higher Self, God, Holy Spirit, or whatever name you may give to your Highest and purest Spiritual connection to All That Is in the universe.This is the "I AM" Presence within you.

- 2007-11-13 22:16:19 - The easiest way to overcome vanity
- Vanity - it's easy to mask, easy to forget, and easy to justify. We hide it behind dignity and poise. The sins connected to this weakness aren't quite as severe as those associated with pride, gluttony, and lust. But it can eventually lead up to some serious problems. And it can keep us from becoming an instrument of Christ.The solution (humility) might be one of the most difficult virtues ...

- 2007-11-13 22:16:19 - Selling spiritual stuff
- Spiritual stuff is a hard sell Roy and one of the reasons for that is spirituality was turned into religion a long time ago. Spirit is natural and it is who you are naturally. Religion is man's commercialized idea of spiritualism. Man included within religion his own agenda, which altered the form of spiritualism for ever more. Long ago man felt the connection to his environment and that which cre...

- Don't be confused that a saint is a religious leader sort of person who has a particular way of dressing and a lonely life-style. Instead, a saint is a person who leads a simple disciplined life with a motto of "Service Above Self". He is a person who has crossed the barrier that bars from being spiritual. So, if you want to become a saint then you have to work towards crossing the threshold that ...

- 2007-11-13 22:16:19 - The blessing of violence
- An interesting question arose within a poetry workshop I attended this week.This was the question, "Are human beings violent by nature?" This is a real question. This is the sort of question one can expect to arise amongst those working with the language of the soul. This is the language of the poetic, the language of creation.As for myself the answer is a resounding "...

- With those words recorded in Exodus 15:26, God proclaims to man the source of all healing...Himself!Healing is not found in a bottle or pill, it's not found in some far off new age or medical technique...Healing is found only in the living God, the One who knit our bones together. Only God knows how to heal in body, spirit and soul. Only He, has made for our every provision.All throu...

- It was in the middle of the night and the boat was being tossed in the wind. The crew was stressed?Between shoves from the wind, they were shocked to see someone actually walking on the water through the wind, rain, and waves. In Matthew 14 we're told of how the crew was panicking. At first they thought that the man was a spirit and they cried out in fear.The Challenge The...

- 2007-11-13 22:16:19 - Spiritual solution for tensions and anxiety
- Realisation and repeated memorization of the true knowledge is the only one solution for this problem. The ignorance is responsible for all the anxiety and tensions. One should know that every one has climbed the time (Kala), which is the running train. Death is the station at which one has to get down. Then every one should face the Lord for the enquiry. After the enquiry one will get either perm...

- 2007-11-13 22:16:19 - Unification of world religions
- If anyone says that his/her religion is the only path to God and that other paths lead to hell, I have one humble question. The question is for every religion without any trace of partiality. The simple question is: Today I have heard your Religion and if I follow that, I reach God and if I refuse I will go to the hell for my own fault. This is very much reasonable. But before your ancestors disco...
