  • Lotus Flower

    The lotus seed starts in the muck at the bottom of a pond. As it grows and reaches the surface, a beautiful lotus flower blossoms. Still rooted in the muck, it rises above it all up into the pure air and flourishes beautifully, above the denseness, the darkness, from which it came. Of course not…

  • You Are a Cell

    If there is a god, and I believe there is, then it’s possible we’re all just little pieces of god in a similar way to how all of our cells are little pieces of us. First, I don’t mean a personal god as in a human-like entity who hears our prayers and grants them. I…

  • Sitting on a Park Bench

    Sitting on a Park Bench

    A lone maple leaf detaches from its life source, fluttering down into the pond to join its fallen friends already soft and brown with decay, the first casualties of an inexorable winter rapidly approaching. A fish hides in the leaf’s shade and nibbles off a snack. A bigger fish lurks deeper, hungry. The leaf fed…

  • How to Meditate

    How to Meditate

      The average person hears “meditation” and thinks of some Tibetan monk or some new age hippie type. The truth is, more people than you know meditate regularly, especially the successful ones.

  • You Are Ten Years Old

    You Are Ten Years Old

    It is said that your body, with which you identify so closely, is at any time no more than ten years old. That means your skin, your eyes, your bones, your internal organs, and your penis and/or vagina are all made up of different cells than they were ten years ago. They regenerate continuously. The…

  • We Are Creators

    We Are Creators

    We humans were born to create. That is our purpose, our prime directive. When we are not creating, we are not acting in accordance with our prime directive, and it becomes difficult or impossible to live a fulfilling life. To be happy. Traditionally and evolutionarily speaking, men created shelter, sustenance, business and wealth, while women…

  • Dynamo Jack – Qi Master

    Dynamo Jack – Qi Master

    Within each one of us is powerful life energy or life force that the Chinese refer to as Qi (pronounced CHEE). There are ways to harness that energy and project it outward for powerful effects. Many Qi masters use their skills to heal others. Dynamo Jack is one of them. Science is currently unable to…

  • To Be Alive

    To Be Alive

    People are dying right now. I mean right now, right this second, as I type and as you subsequently read this, people are dying and wishing to be alive for just a little while longer. They’re wishing they could watch their loved ones grow up, wishing they had a little more time to do just…

  • Amazing Near-Death Experience: Mellen-Thomas Benedict

    Amazing Near-Death Experience: Mellen-Thomas Benedict

    I was made aware of the link below a few days ago while browsing an astral projection forum (www.astralpulse.com/forums) and found it incredibly fascinating. Reading accounts like these makes it much easier to believe that we are, in fact, eternal consciousnesses temporarily inhabiting our physical bodies. I’ll give you the cliff notes of the page,…

  • Does Everything Happen for a Reason?

    Does Everything Happen for a Reason?

    It used to annoy me when something bad would happen and someone would say, “Well, everything happens for a reason!” I would say that’s bullshit, everything is random, there is no reason for anything. And I would think the person who said it was not very intelligent. If everything happens for a reason, why do…
