"Truth fears no questions." Anonymous

Welcome to Spiritual Enlightenment

At some point during my adult years, I looked back on my life and realized I was a fraud. My physical world was drastically out of alignment with my spiritual one. It was similar to cooking an elaborate meal while starving, but not being able to consume it. I grew up in a very strict Christian setting dominated by Southern Baptist doctrines. Church every Sunday, choir, usher board, trustee board, Sunday school, morning service, evening service... the environment was filled with bible-toting scripture-quoting tongue-speaking hallelujah shouting folks! Fortunately, I was exposed to many people of integrity and positive influences that instilled in me priceless values. My parents emphasized education until it was drilled into my psyche. On the flip side, I was fed a lot of half-truths, partial truths, and altered truths by so-called well-meaning people. Ignorance, closed-mindedness, pride, & arrogance are likely some of the causative factors. Therefore, I impersonated what a Christian should look and act like based on deficient information. There was no valid connection between the worldly me and my higher self. I impersonated what a Christian should look and act like, but I had no real relationship with my Creator. I prayed to a God I was told to pray to quoting the prayers I was taught to quote. Like a soldier taking orders from his commanding officer: You do as you are told and trained to do whether you are feeling it or not!

Out of Nowhere

I am not sure what event triggered my self-realization, yet it was life-transforming. The process is nowhere near complete rendering an ongoing journey. A crucial part of my being that was sleep woke up and jolted me to the core. Sadly, many people live their whole lives and depart without recognizing that crucial element. My recognition of that element catapulted my mind to a higher wave length. There was a burst of clarity illuminating my understanding of almost everything.

One major area of enlightenment is human sensuality--the mother of physical intimacy. The religious forums that dominate the media treat it like it is nonexistent (unless a scandal hits the news) or something to shun from discussion. In contrast, sensuality should be celebrated and promoted within a God-ordained context. Consequently, inner eyes open, new ideas blossom, paradigms shift, and higher consciousness ensues.

Spiritual enlightenment brings about intelligence and inner peace. It is not about being a Biblical scholar or expert on religious topics because I am neither--far from it! I started this blog not just to disperse information, but to gain knowledge and expand my horizons. It is truly about making a connection with God who leads us to connecting with deeper aspects of ourselves. Those deeper aspects make up the true self...not our careers, bank accounts, personal possessions, or physical bodies.

Our Eclectic Universe

The physical universe is evidence that the Creator loves diversity. A child of the universe, planet Earth, clearly follows suit with its potpourri of life forms. Within the same life form is remarkable variation ( different species of fish, plants, human racial groups, etc). Does it not stand to reason diversity is expressed on every level of existence/consciousness? It does not matter if you are Christian, Buddhist, Muslim, etc. because you are a different expression of the same universe. Different cloths of fabric are required to construct the quilt. I discovered that all religions contribute knowledge and perspectives that are necessary to complete life's masterpiece. It seems as if everyone has a piece to the puzzle of the universe that may never be fully explained on this realm.

The paths we choose to take to self-realization are possible through the gift from God called free will. I have discovered there are far more similarities than differences between the major philosophies that lend more support of each other than contradiction. Besides, I dare to count the numerous contradictions that exist just within the Christian faith. Historical and present events demonstrate other religions are plagued with the same multiple interpretations/variations. At one time, the news was flooded with horror stories of conflicts between the Sunni and Shiite Muslims...there is only one Quran is there not??? No one, no science, no religion has escaped the divisiveness of multiple perspectives. Conflicting interpretations give birth to confusion, disbelief, and disillusionment.

One will be greatly distracted if not focused on their own inner voice. It's the God inside of you and me. Ultimately, that is the key: Hearing your own inner voice because once that occurs everything else falls into place.

Calgon Take Me Away!!!


It is easy for us to get caught up in the rat race of modern fast-paced living. In order to function in a hectic society we must, in turn, adopt a hectic lifestyle, particularly in the busy cities. Technology, although propelling the human race forward, has created a more complicated environment that is increasingly difficult to navigate. The simplicity that births calmness and serenity has been degraded and outright obliterated. Acquiring a higher consciousness and perception requires stillness, self-reflection, and serenity. Unfortunately, the madness generated from functioning in a hectic society detaches us from our inner spiritual world...where universal wisdom, peace, and the divinely perfect versions of ourselves live. In other words, a huge number of people on the planet are operating at much lower frequencies than nature intended. The staggering and growing incidents of mental, physical, and social illnesses are evidence of a lower frequency existence. A busy hectic lifestyle does not support the stillness and serenity necessary for spiritual growth.


Universal Truths
Our outer world (physical) is a reflection of our inner world (spiritual). 

The outer world is temporary, but the inner world is infinite.

The reality we see out there originates from the reality inside of us.
Higher consciousness and perception lead us to our inner reality and spiritual growth.

Higher consciousness and perception is energy vibrating at higher frequencies.

Every conscious human being on the planet has the ability to elevate their frequencies through connection with their inner spiritual world...the true self, the higher dimensions, and the infinite source of everything. 


Spiritual alignment is not difficult, but requires a deliberate course of action. 

Calgon Take Me Away!!!
  • First and foremost, make a decision to set aside time out of a busy schedule to do the things that promote your spiritual alignment, such as meditation, spending more time outdoors in nature, listening to therapeutic music, and various other practices; Incorporate those activities into your daily routine. 
  • Any stress relieving activity promoting calmness increases our vibrations and heals chakra energy. 
  • Heightened perceptions happen by way of the pineal gland in the brain (third eye). Eat a healthy diet, maintain physical fitness, and get adequate rest. 
  • Eliminate as much negativity as possible from your life, including thought patterns, people, and situations that don't enhance you. 
  • Simplify your life as much as possible by removing clutter and reorganizing your environment when necessary.
Always remember that our earthly existence has a specific purpose and mission to accomplish. The sustainment of modern societies is materialism which distracts people from their higher purposes. Of course, materialism serves a role by sustaining our physical existence, shelter, food, clothing, etc. However, it is not the reason why we exist. The source of any divine mission is from the spiritual realm. The focus is to raise the vibrations of the world we live in.
You are the universe having a human experience.
Make it the absolute best it can be.

In what ways do you feel the environment you live in (big city, small town, rural, etc.) has impacted your spiritual journey?







Are God And The Universe The Same Thing?

When you hear the term "universe" what do you immediately visualize? Most people think of the cosmos or the material universe---the void of space, galaxies, constellations, etc. In reality, the universe is various frequencies of energy that manifest both the material and the non-material. Also included are the quantitative realities that subdivide our universe. In general, it consists of distinct and organized patterns or expressions evolving from one source~the Flower of Life

As New Age spirituality evolves, the viewpoint of traditional religion on the nature of God is being challenged. It is interesting that what is labeled New Age is actually a very ancient school of thought. Most every New Age guru or occultist utilizes ancient teachings that predate the sacred books of the major religions, such as the Christian Bible.


There are 2 general perspectives on the topic of this discussion that umbrella almost every religious/spiritual belief system:

1. Panentheism-God is a separate entity from the universe. The universe is a creation or an expression of the Creator, but not the divine being. Therefore, the universe is not eternal and can come to an end. The universe operates under the direction of its Creator who can alter or change the rules at will. The parting of the Red Sea in the Book of Exodus represents such a God.


2. Pantheism-God is the universe itself and all its many manifestations. God, aka the Creator, is not distinct from the creation, but operates as the creation, including you and me. The pantheist views God as an organic machine that must follow the laws of nature. Everybody and everything is God which are infinitely guided by the universal laws.

"We know from science that nothing in the universe exists as an isolated or independent entity."
Margaret J. Wheatley

"Not only are we in the universe, the universe is in us..."  Neil deGrasse Tyson

"I Am that I Am." Exodus 3:14 Old Testament, The Holy Bible

The major viewpoints on the nature of God have been presented. In the face of objectivity, quantum mechanical findings provide more support for the Pantheistic theory. At the same time, one could assume that the energy that designed the Flower of Life geometry is a distinct conscious entity. At the end of the day, living a life that radiates positive energy is the key that opens the door to anything we will ever need to know. A quote from Buddha eloquently sums it up:
"I do not care to know your various theories about God. What is the use of discussing all the subtle doctrines of the soul? Do good and be good. And this will take you to freedom and to whatever truth there is..."

Getting It Right At Home

Lately, there has been a lot chatter about the possibility of extraterrestrial life and the likelihood of actual contact. Yikes!!! Sightings of UFOs and other celestial anomalies are becoming commonplace reported from around the world. The topic of otherworldly life has been placed on the round tables during publicly reported conferences of government and elite organizations...one can only imagine the private meetings that are occurring. NASA discovers new planetary systems and related astronomical information on a daily basis. Landmark findings of the Mars Exploration Rover, such as the presence of water, fascinate us with the possibility of life on alien soil. The quest for finding earth-like and/or human friendly planets appears on the forefront of scientific headlines. Conspiracy theorists, media analysts, and self-appointed experts are advising citizens to be prepared for official announcements of otherworldly encounters. 


There has been all types of speculations on the nature and purpose of beings from another world. Most relevantly, how their interaction with our planet would play out in reference to safety and global agendas.
At the end of the day, it makes no sense to obsess and worry about over-inflated concerns on extraterrestrial topics. The overall scenario of any extraterrestrial life is out of our physical control. 

The most precious wisdom that can be bestowed is the achievement of humanitarian unity with each other. 

I am not referring to unity based on fear of something alien. In contrast, unity based on human beings recognizing and embracing their oneness. Unity and oneness manifested through the power of agape love is the best course of action. Agape love generates beautiful karma universally. By nature, agape love only recognizes the common denominator (the Creator) of everything; it is not concerned with physical or mental attributes. It is not concerned with man-made institutions of religion. Connection with our common denominator unites us with love and each other. 

Humanitarian love, peace, and unity may sound cliche, but it lays the foundation for true solidarity.
We will never be able to execute an effective strategy in dealing with alien differences if we do not embrace the human sameness of one another.

We are all manifestations of the same thing. Division among us humans occurs when the focus is on what makes us different. If anything alien invades our world, those differences will become gigantically menial and insignificant! It is highly unlikely one would stress over the variations among humans as an alien species presents. There has never been a better time to fall in love with the human race, flaws and all.

Human relations and how we treat our planet far outweigh the relevance of what is out there.
The planet earth is our home. Let's get it right here. Let's get it right with each other.

The Spiritual Side of Romance

Romantic love or the Greek delineation eros, for most individuals is the most exciting and intense form of human affection. It can move like a roller coaster ride with extreme highs that dip down to extreme lows. The sensuality of the romantic experience releases feel good chemicals in our brains, offering a slice of paradise on earth. It causes the beneficial merging of lives, creation of more humans, and ultimately, survival of the human race. The very thrill of eros at its best is worth the agony of the down-side as expressed in the popular quote by poet Alfred Lord Tennyson: 
"Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all."
Many of us probably agree with that testament in spite of enduring the pain of a broken heart. 

Romance as an Holistic Experience
The blissful unification of body and heart reverberates to the spirit. As a result, the spirit soars vibrating at higher frequencies. The heart is a manifestation of the mind where our emotions originate. The mind/heart is how the soul energy expresses itself in the physical world. The brain is simply the physical receiver or translator of that energy. Therefore, what we perceive as falling in love is the merging or the attempt to merge with the energy of another. It is fundamentally a supernatural experience of higher consciousness, no matter how short-lived it might be.

Let It Go

Just as every experience we have impacts our holistic being, so does our love relationships. Every romance leaves its own unique signature on our souls and spirits. When that spiritual imprint impacts our perceptions and behaviors, we call it baggage. Once you release the emotions of former relationships (disconnect with that energy), the imprints will fade and so will your baggage.

Spirit Guide

In the ultimate quest for true love, communicating with spirit just makes sense. We become one with the Creator and the creation. The answers to all questions and the solutions to all problems dwell on the spirit realm. Self-exploration leads to spiritual connection which leads to self-improvement; a prerequisite to harmoniously joining forces with another. Practicing rituals that promote inner-connections will inevitably improve the decisions we make in our romantic interludes. Remember, anything we seek in the external world is created and regulated by the internal world. Love follows the same pattern of the supernatural over the natural.

In what specific ways do you feel good spiritual health can alleviate relationship problems, such as infidelity, domestic violence, or soaring divorce rates?



The Universal Magician

Have you ever been fascinated by a magic show exhibiting the skills of a magician? Most of us are dazzled by magic because it appears to defy the laws of nature. In actuality, the magician manipulates the natural laws of science to bring about illusion and trickery. The real magic lies in the power of the human mind to harness the supernatural in order to guide the natural.....create reality. It is about tapping into the real self to command the laws of nature and shape the world around us. We all are empowered with magic to use in our everyday lives. The higher we raise our consciousness, the more magical we become. 
NO TRICKS JUST TREATS
Have you tapped into your magical powers lately?

Science & Spirituality: Friends or Foes?

Science & Spirituality have not traditionally been friends. They live on opposite sides of the fence and travel down roads going in opposite directions. Both religion and spirituality have always offered explanations for things science could not explain. Traditionally, science has held the position that everything in existence must fit into a scheme of rules and laws that govern a natural, materialistic world. 

Every now and then, science stumbles upon a finding that is “concrete” supporting a religious belief, for example, the Shroud of Turin and the professed finding of Noah’s Ark.  Advanced equipment and climatic changes are now revealing ruins of ancient cities that once were considered myths. All those things are physical findings. Discovering anything concrete for the spirit world is a lot trickier. If it cannot be interpreted by the basic 5 physical senses, it is not considered valid. When science is unable to explain anything, it is labeled a mystery, phenomenon, and even nonexistent.


Quantum physics comes along and presents observable empirical data that does not neatly fit into the rigid categories of the science world. It suggests that maybe those crazy spiritual gurus are not that crazy after all! It is like the rebellious child that goes against tradition and paves its own way. Wikipedia The Free Encyclopedia states, "Quantum mechanics is the science of the very small: the body of scientific principles that explains the behavior of matter and its interaction with energy on the scale of atoms and subatomic particles." Studying the very small to explain the very big is a fascinating paradox! Extensive research conducted over the last few decades has yielded overwhelming evidence for life after death, nonphysical worlds/dimensions, nonphysical beings, and so on. One of the landmarks of quantum physics is the discovery that the physical world around us is energy; like a hologram made of light and sound. It puts a whole new spin on what the scientific-minded call concrete now doesn’t it?


Do you feel that quantum physics can harmoniously merge the two worlds of spirituality and science together? Explain why or why not. As quantum physics makes more and more discoveries, in what ways will the scientific community need to adjust and restructure?

The Year of Unification

As we embark on a new year of the revolving earth cycle, let us be inspired to tackle ongoing problems with a fresh approach. Of course, we do not have to wait for a 365 day cycle to do that. Every moment of our lives is an opportunity for a fresh start.

Looking externally for solutions will not solve anything, just provide a superficial and temporary fix. The problems we face in this world, like every other situation, originate with the spirit. You cannot fix a spiritual problem with a physical tool. Therefore, we must look inward where the real solutions are waiting. 

The vast majority of the issues we are fighting emerge from human polarization based on race/color, nationality, religion, and so on. As people become more spiritually awake, more aware of the oneness, the barriers that polarize us from one another will slowly dissolve. Unity is a gift of spiritual awareness and it will propel the human race forward.

The Good Karma Tonic

There are three main ingredients for the Good Karma Tonic



Compassion

Forgiveness

Gratitude

Those three basic ingredients have the power to shower you with abundant good karma and transform your reality taking you to places you never imagined!!! 
Tragically, a huge segment of the people on our planet exhibit the opposite character. The energy flow has been blocked by negative emotions separating them from their spiritual selves; they are selfish, indifferent, apathetic, bitter, unforgiving, ungrateful, unappreciative, arrogant...no wonder there is so much chaos in the world. Humanity has synthesized their own reality with a massive collective negativity! 


Compassion is the ability to love other living things and be concerned for their well-being regardless of their character. It is the willingness to help someone or something without personal agenda for worldly gain or reward. Jesus Christ is the ultimate example of compassion. It does not matter whether you are a Christian or not. His teachings and life story, whether one believes are real or symbolic, set the standard for all human beings to strive for: Loving one another unconditionally...the highest consciousness.


Forgiveness is one of the hardest sentiments to express, but crucial for a happy life. Freeing yourself from the prison of bitterness, hatred, and pain not only feels better, but opens up the cosmic gateway to positive energy. When someone hurts you, there is the initial physical and mental pain. That is inevitable. The lack of forgiveness is the lingering pain you experience by reliving the event in your mind; you are focusing on the past. That pain is even more pronounced if there are residual physical injuries or damage to your quality of life. The pain leads you to a state of lower energy, feeling bitterness and hate toward the so-called perpetrator. In actuality, YOU are the perpetrator, the creator of your world. You end up putting out more negative energy to the universe which has no choice but to spew it back toward you.

Gratitude versus lack of gratitude for the goodness in our lives is like saying "F" you to the spirit world, "F" you to the universe, "F" you to the Creator. You are giving all the credit for your worldly achievements solely to the mind and body. Does that make any sense if your are a spiritual being? Your failure to appreciate the true source of your gifts is like a slap in the face to God...clearly not a good thing. If you have ever done something nice for someone and they expressed gratitude, did it make you feel warm and fuzzy on the inside? Were you much more encouraged to do more good things for the individual and others? Karma responds the same way.



The positive side is it is never too late to halt negativity and even reverse the damage inflicted within the physical realm. We are all creators on the spirit plane that operates beyond the constraints of time; the concept of "too late" is nonexistent. The healing process must always begin with spirit. The spirit gives the soul the okay to open up the heart to higher love aka agape love. Once that happens, the compassion, forgiveness, and gratitude will happen spontaneously. Relapses happen when we lose touch with our higher selves. In other words, the compassion, forgiveness, and gratitude are already inside of us. In order to save ourselves and the world, we must find them.

Have you ever been in or presently in a situation struggling with compassion, forgiveness, and/or gratitude? If you were successful, what personal strategies did you implement? What do you think are the major hindrances of expressing those sentiments toward one another?

Kill Stress & Save Spirit

Most of us know that stress has a negative impact on the mind and body. Stress kills, maims, and disables. The majority of the diseases we face in the modern world are stress related. With the understanding that people are holistic beings, it stands to reason that stress also damages the spirit. The tension and emotional disturbances caused by unpleasant life situations resonates throughout the soul and spirit realms. Bad relationships, financial hardship, destruction and loss of personal property, unhealthy lifestyles, worrying about the future, etc. wear us down, deplete our strength, and hinder the flow of chakra energy within our bodies.

The Benefits of Darkness

Would the light of a candle truly be appreciated if there was no darkness?

A balanced life requires both light and darkness. 
The sunlight of day illuminates the planet allowing one to clearly navigate the physical world around them. The darkness of night comes along and quiets the world to sleep so healing and rejuvenation can take place. It is that healing and rejuvenation that prepares us for the next day. 
In like manner, the darkness of winter allows animals to hibernate in preparation for the sunlit months ahead. 
The earth's greenery and vegetation receives nourishment from both sun and rain. When the clouds mask the sunlight and darken the sky, life-giving rain falls. 

If it was not for the darkness, one could not adore the beauty of the stars and planets in the night sky. 

Light does not have significance without darkness. 
Our existence requires both elements to interact in a harmonious relationship.
Conflict occurs when darkness and light cannot interact according to the blueprint of nature.

What is your opinion on the topic? Should darkness always be considered a bad or negative thing? Is light always beneficial or desired? Is spiritual darkness in the same category with physical darkness? What are the similarities and/or the differences?

Love Versus Religion

Throughout history, religion has been the source of much of the conflict occurring on this planet. Historically, people in high places with their own agendas, have used religion as a tool in order to control, manipulate, and deceive the masses. Wouldn't it be a gigantic advancement of the human kind if religion was completely removed from the equation? Please watch this powerful short video from the Mind Unleashed TV series and share your thoughts.
How does this theory support or conflict with your religious and/or spiritual beliefs?

If You Like It, Then Please Do NOT Put A Ring On It

If the soaring divorce rate is any indication, putting a ring on it should not be taken lightly. My opinion is based on surmising that putting a ring on it symbolizes marriage in Beyonce's insanely popular mega hit. Imagine asking the average person what they thought the difference was between like and love. In more or less words, they will probably express that loving is simply a stronger, more intense version of liking. It is viewed as being almost the same emotion, but on a different point of the continuum. I beg to differ. 

Like and love are 2 different emotions that are similar, but not the same. The evidence for that is in our everyday lives. For instance, there are people that I love by virtue of their position, but I do not like them! When you like someone, you have feelings of fondness toward them based on what you perceive with your 5 natural senses. The person that you like probably has mental or physical traits that you admire. There is no spiritual connection or commitment. The love chakra is not yet activated.

Like is not a watered down version of love, although it may appear that way. Love can enter in the equation if the conditions are favorable. A couple in the early phase of their relationship may just like each other. As the relationship evolves, they may grow to love each other. The fact that they liked each other laid the foundation for love to emerge. However, the like did not become the love. It simply made the conditions more favorable for the love to happen.
When you love someone, no matter what type of love, your spirit communicates with their spirit. The love chakra is activated and you perceive things on a higher frequency. In other words, anyone who has ever loved anyone automatically encountered the supernatural. The cornerstone of love versus like is that love is based on using higher perception. Love requires awareness of the supernatural. Like is strictly limited to your intellectual perceptions and functions off the natural or physical realm.

Marriages require much work, sacrifice, dedication, and commitment to stay afloat. Particularly, in today's hectic and fast-paced world that bombards the union with multiple distractions. The genuine presence of mutual love provides an impermeable foundation for relationships. It creates a spiritual connection heightening the chances of marital survival. 

If you love it, then by all means, put a ring on it!


What is your opinion? 

Laughter Is More Than Medicine

When was the last time that you laughed? I mean 'really' laughed? Was it a few minutes ago, 2 days ago, or weeks ago? I am not talking about giggling or snickering, but a deep belly chuckle? The kind of laughter that makes your eyes water and your belly muscles sore. The kind of laughter that make the people nearby look at you as if you have lost it! Did it start from something you saw, heard, or did it begin with a thought?

It seems that most people do not realize how therapeutic laughter is to the spiritual, mental, and physical health. Here a some of the benefits that are supported by scientific research:

  • Reduces the hormones associated with feelings of anxiety and stress.
  • Decreases the blood pressure.
  • Activates your immune system to function better.
  • Increases the release of the feel good hormones called endorphins. They give you a sense of well-being and are natural pain relievers.
  • According to E.C. Lameaux 7 Health Benefits of Laughter, it is a fun ab workout that tones your abs. When you laugh, your abdominal muscles expand and contract similar to intentional exercise. It is also reported that laughter is a great cardio workout. It actually burns the same number of calories per hour as a slow to moderate walk!
There are research studies that found people who laugh more have fewer illnesses and live longer than their somber counterparts. 
One's spirit feels lighter and more open with a sense of well-being that increases energy.

Does a burst of amusement activate a particular chakra? Some feel that the heart chakra is more involved because it is connected to emotions. There is some debate on the topic. It appears that laughter has such wide spread benefits, it likely impacts the energy flow of all the chakras. 

So by all means, rent that comedy, hang out with that crazy friend that tells those hilarious jokes, or buy tickets to see your favorite comedian. Laughter is more than medicine, it is food for your soul.

What is your opinion on the benefits of laughter? How does the mental and physical benefits relate to spirituality?

Aura Versus Chakra: What is the Difference?

“If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration." Nikola  Tesla


Science has proven that everything in our universe is energy vibrating at different frequencies. Auras are fields of electromagnetic energy that surround all living things and even inanimate objects. A human aura is actually a part of our anatomy that is not physical due to it  vibrating at a higher frequency; Remember the more solid the object the slower the vibrations, such as our physical bodies, trees, buildings, etc. Auras take on the form of the object it is emitted from. 

According to various experts, it is divided into seven layers also referred to as bodies. Each layer represents a different aspect of how we perceive and interact with God and universal laws. The energy of the various layers move in and out the physical body and is interconnected with the chakra energy. Auras come in different colors impacted by our personalities, emotional state of mind, physical health, and the environment. The movement and colors of auras can change frequently depending on the influential factors present. Auras can be seen with the natural eyes or with the mind's eyes (pineal gland/third eye). The aura ceases to exist when the physical body dies except for the outermost astral layers which support the soul and spirit. 

Chakras differ from auras in that they are internal and physically rooted at specific locations of the body. The colors and vibrations of the chakras are more consistent and not as easily changed. However, chakra energy can be shifted and its appearance can be altered from major or extremely traumatic life events. The flow of energy extending from the chakras that travel outside the body become the various layers of the aura. The more internal the layer, the more it is connected with the physical body. The more external the layer, the more it is connected with the spirit. 

Check out the following video on how to see auras with the natural eyes.


It stands to reason that if everything is energy, then, everything is connected. We have been given a clear scenario of how the energy we project and surround ourselves with impact who we are physically, mentally, and spiritually and vice versa. How do you propose mankind can apply that concept to a broader platform, such as humanitarian love and global peace? What type of resources would you use to shift the balance of energy toward a more ideal world? Do you think religion would facilitate the process or be a hindrance?

Wisdom Speaks

"Difficulties are meant to rouse, not discourage. The human spirit is to grow strong by conflict."---  William Ellery Channing

Out of the Comfort Zone

Growth and maturity whether physical, mental, or spiritual rarely come from a comfortable snug position. It takes effort, exertion of energy, struggle, and pain, ultimately, movement away from comfort. When we are going through hardships, we are forced to search deeper for resources in finding solutions. Those resources might be characteristics within ourselves or external factors. We are challenged to come up with alternative ways to adapt and adjust to not so ideal circumstances. Life struggles help us gather new and more effective coping skills, become smarter, and more empowered. Our paradigms are shifted and expanded to a broader scale resulting in broader thinking and greater insight. After overcoming a hurdle, we gain new inner strength. What does not kill you really does make you stronger. Reflection on a difficult situation brings about life lessons, self-revelations, and wisdom. The impact of hardship on the human spirit can be compared to the transformation of a rock to a sparkling diamond!

Realistically speaking, most people do not set out to inflict painful situations on their lives no matter how productive the outcome. Have you heard of the saying, "No need to look for trouble because trouble will surely find you"? Hardships and struggles will inevitably occur in this life without any input or permission from us. No one's life on this earthly realm has ever been trouble-free no matter what their status. A popular life theory purportedly having scientific evidence explains that everything that happens to us emerges from our thoughts and emotions. That theory was made popular by the movie "The Secret" released in 2006. If such a universal law is true, do you think a trouble-free life is possible if people only emitted positive energy through thoughts and emotions? Do you think it is realistic or even possible for a person to live beyond infancy with a strictly positive mindset? Why or why not?

Soul Mates Created Not Born

When the average person is confronted with the question of "What is a soul mate?", most will respond with answers like someone who God created just for you, someone you are spiritually connected with, someone you are totally compatible with, someone who understands the real you, etc... It is expected that an individual would automatically fall in love with their soul mate for the obvious reasons. In other words, the love expressed is contingent on the person being perceived as a soul mate. My question is can people become soul mates after falling in love? The answer to my question is based on the assumption that people fall in love and stay together for other reasons. There may be other factors involved that one admires or holds high in priority that ignites the fire of love. The evidence can be found in statements like, "He is not exactly what I wanted for a mate, but he is a good man." The person making this statement is implying that love expressed is based on him being a good man as opposed to being "the one" God designed for her. 

I strongly disagree with "the one" theory. I believe there are numerous individuals in this world one can blend with harmoniously. After being in a relationship of that nature for an extended time, it stands to reason that spiritual connection and compatibility can evolve. It seems that two people can actually become soul mates if mutual love and respect is present. Where there is love, there is the desire to please and make happy. There is also the inevitable connection of hearts. Heart and soul are synonymous in the Bible and other religious writings. If you are in a relationship with someone you consider your soul mate, did you view them that way from the very beginning or did it evolve over time? Have you ever been in a relationship with a soul mate that ended? If yes, do you still feel the same connection although you both are no longer together or did the connection end when the relationship ended? If you presently do not have a mate/partner, do you think it is realistic to believe there is only one person out there for you? Why or why not? 

Healing Melodies of the Universe






Sound...It is something most of us take for granted with the exception of the hearing impaired. Nevertheless, it is one of the most utilized natural senses allowing us to interpret and experience our world. What exactly is sound? Simply explained, vibrations that travel through air, gas, water, etc., forming wave patterns called frequenciesFrequencies, in turn, are counted or measured by units called hertz (hz)Hertz are units accepted by a worldwide standard known as the International System of Units (SI) [see The Free Dictionary by Farlex at http://goo.gl/oPl8JX]. The human spectrum of audible sound is broad ranging between 20-20,000 hz! Check out this video to experience the range of your hearing capability: 

Most of the music we hear through mainstream media is 440 hz described as harsh and out of sync with the universal rhythm. Scientific research has discovered the energy that comprises our universe vibrates at distinct frequencies to include 432 hz and 528 hz. The numbers 432 and 528 occur mathematically in the very structure of the universe. It stands to reason that listening to music in those ranges might have therapeutic effects on the listeners. Researchers of the benefits of 432/528 hz have reported benefits, such as enhancement in DNA and cellular functions, alleviation of chronic illnesses and stress-related conditions, increased mental and spiritual clarity, enhanced chakra energy, and a softer, more gentle impact on the ear drums reducing the risk of hearing loss. Wow! Imagine getting all those benefits just from listening to music! The medical and pharmaceutical companies would go bankrupt! Put on some earphones and listen to the following 528 hz therapy:


Do you routinely listen to music at alternative frequencies? If yes, have you noted any positive changes in your mental or physical status? Do you think mainstream broadcasters of music would be open to the 432/528 hz transformation?
