Spirituality and Religion
The belief in responsible living and equality within community life was a central philosophy guiding the remarkable life of Satguru Baba Hardev Singh.
Preconceived notions can be likened to computer software where our subconscious minds are the hard drive and everyone and everything else, all the stuff “out there” has installed this software…presumably with little to no notice on our part. I believe the human soul or “consciousness” is energy personified and thus cannot be destroyed. Therefore, we continue to “upload” into new hard drives with each incarnation.
The Hermetic Principles of Polarity & Rhythm have always been my two most favorites in that they are the greatest reminders that separation is an illusion…that when extremes agree to meet in the middle, harmony is achieved. #mentalalchemy #hermeticlaws

“What is the “Self” with a capital “S” is a question that humanity has been asking for generations. Science is now beginning to open doors to the idea that we are more than biological entities; that we do go beyond the prolific borders of our bodies and well into the ethers of Universal existence. Do I even dare to go so far and say that we are the Universe?
Did Christianity develop out of Judaism? When and where did Islam, the second-largest religion, originate? How did Hinduism, the world’s oldest organized religion, followed by over 950 million people, grow and spread without a founder? Watch this video and find out…
Certainly people like Francesca Levine, a content 72-year-old, working psychotherapist from Melbourne, Australia with a dog, a house, and grandchildren, aren’t the stereotypical plant medicine, psychedelics user. By Francesca’s own admission, her life is going great. She’s madly in love with her husband of 50 years, has an incredible family, and absolutely loves her work. […]
Are the differences between science and religion really that cut-and-dried? Does the divide really need to be so vast? Read on to find out…
Quantum Prayer is simply the act of empowered receiving. While we are intending to connect with the Divine to receive guidance, we do so knowing that we are already complete, already whole and already One with the All. We allow we make welcome, we trust, we surrender to the flow. We do not simply “ask” and then lay in bed wide awake all night stressing out and worrying if it will come, happen, change, etc. That is the opposite of Quantum Prayer.
It’s Christmas, the celebration of Jesus Christ’s birth. Are there any connections between eastern thought and the story of Jesus’ birth? There are many ways to interpret the Bible regarding the teachings of and about Jesus and I to some degree or other, I subscribe to all of them. I believe that there is […]
It’s not difficult to discover why so many people today live their lives out of touch with this interconnected reality. What they are experiencing is the feeling of separateness… a feeling that is not ultimately real. Our material reality, which we experience as separate seemingly-physical objects, is but a filtered version of the ultimate unity which connects everything. This filtered version creates a perception of separateness because it only experiences bits and pieces of the whole at a time.
Nowadays when I hear the words “New Age”, it kind of makes me nauseous. I’ve never liked labels much, and whenever someone would ask me what I’m into and hear me rattle off a list of crystals, moon rituals, and manifesting, I usually would have the same label splattered on me time and time again….”Oh, […]
This article helps us to see how much life can surprise us, and make us question our presumptions, our religious beliefs and scientific dogmas; and teaches us a way for all of us to come together with a more holistic view of such things. It applies itself over and over again in our lives.
We’ve all heard at one time or another someone say that a person “has spirit” or that a song might be “soulful”, and what is apparent is that BOTH spirit and soul invoke emotion and are deeply embedded within us, so that when the creative force they invoke surfaces whether it be via painting, writing, singing, or mud wrestling (lol), each bring from our core that which makes us each human beings with a living purpose. They are intertwined and affecting one another as a whole, and yet maintaining their respected uniqueness and differences all the while.
In 2002 a U. S. patrol had gone missing in a very remote area of Afghanistan. Another patrol was dispatched on a search and rescue mission, and one soldier on that patrol described what he saw after coming around the side of a mountain: As we bent around this corner you could see the opening of the cave. And then I see a lot of rocks which is another oddity. And then bone matter….Not long after they had gotten into that dispersal formation, they saw something emerge from the cave that, despite their preparedness, caught them fully off guard. It was a man at least 12 to 15 feet in height. This is a MONSTER. Red beard, with his hair–was longish, past his shoulders, a scarlet red. And Dan runs at him and starts shooting, which broke all of us into the reality–because it was surreal.
I had an amazing chat with Gardner Sylvester about spirituality and secret teachings of Christ that have been right in front of us, yet seldom recognized. Gardner Sylvester is the author of The First Great Commandment, where he shares research into the ‘secret code of the Bible’ involving the true words of Jesus Christ. I […]
