- Seven New Concepts Help Keep Pace With Evolutionary Progress
[Self-Improvement:Abundance-Prosperity] Spiritual progress has been slow and spiritual teachings need to be updated again to keep pace with the evolutionary progress made by humanity. This is why the seven new concepts have been given.
- Seven Gifts From Our Creator to Help Us on Our Path
[Self-Improvement:Spirituality] The first of these seven great gifts is Reincarnation. Of all the seven gifts, Reincarnation is really the greatest gift our Creator ever gave to man.
- The Seven Virtues Can Serve As Guides For Daily Living
[Self-Improvement] The Seven Virtues; Truth, Kindness, Love, Freedom, Compassion, Diplomacy and Impersonality must be taught from birth on and must become second nature to the personality, but it's like the soul has to interpret the seven virtues for the personality, as if they were in a foreign language.
- Personality Compared to a Painting on Canvas
[Self-Improvement:Spirituality] The personality could be compared to a picture of the leading character in a story painted on a clean canvas. The problem is that the canvas is not as clean as we think. There are spots of grease from previous lives seeping through causing blotches in the painting. If there are uneven brush strokes and jerky lines used, then these combined with the blotches make a pretty messy painting.
- The Science of Music is the "Tie That Binds" Religion and Science Together
[Arts-and-Entertainment:Music] Music is based on absolute, mathematical perfection as its foundation & then molded into a creation of beauty. So are humans. Music is the common denominator of all creeds, theories & concepts of both scientific & spiritual leaders. This science encompasses all sciences, religions & philosophies and draws them together to look at creation and evolution as being partners in the miracle of life.
- The Akashic Records Are Similar to Documentary Films
[Self-Improvement:Spirituality] After your life is over your soul does an accepting and rejecting of all its past lifetimes. It is similar to reviewing a group of plays wherein you were the star and deciding the best roles you played. Maybe one line, delivered quite eloquently from one play, will be the only thing to go on the plus sheet for that play. But this is enough for that play to stay on the roster of good plays.
- Cause of Earthquakes Compared to a Litter of Puppies
[News-and-Society:Environmental] Picture a dog (planet earth) with a litter of puppies (humanity) in a box crawling all over the mother playing. The first thing affected in the mother dog is her muscles, causing the loss of her ability to process bodily functions. Compare this to the earth in the plates that allow movement of the continents. The stoppage of the movement of the plates affects other processes in the earth.
- The Judicial System Meant to Balance Scales
[News-and-Society] Karma is the sentence that is "handed down," from the "judge" of your action, your own soul. This is what determines your karma or "penalty," of any wrong doings in your journey.
- How to Have Better, More Affordable Health Care
[Health-and-Fitness:Healthcare-Systems] A new thought on health care is to set everyone up like those on Medicare. They would have the same amount taken from their pay each month to equal what is taken from Medicare patients. Fees will be set for each service and be standardized across the country. Doctors will be assured of seventy-five percent of their charges being paid by the government with the patient paying the rest.
- New Thoughts on How to Reduce Drug Usage and Crime
[Health-and-Fitness:Drug-Abuse] Crime is becoming rampant due to drug usage. Drug usage is becoming rampant due to wanting to escape from responsibility. Escape from responsibility is becoming rampant because of the legal system in our country. The legal system is becoming more active and domineering because of crime. It is a self-feeding system and as all self-feeding systems it needs to have a brake put on it at some point.
- Reincarnation, Pretend You're the Creator God
[Self-Improvement:Spirituality] Pretending that you're the Creator God will show that one lifetime is not enough. Would you create new souls & have them start from scratch each life, or would you reuse the ones you have & treat earth as a classroom? Why not keep the original a while longer & see what they can really accomplish if they have more chances. You would soon begin to realize that reincarnation is the only answer.
- The Seedcore is the Keeper of Records
[Book-Reviews:Spirituality-Religion] The seedcore is the holder of the family tree. It comes back & spins off another personality. All your former lives are part of the seedcore. Good & bad are separated here & only the beautiful & creative lives are kept. All it takes is one plus deed to let any lifetime become part of the soul. If nothing was achieved in that life, than no part of it will remain. This is the true meaning of death.
- The Tapestry of Life, Evolution in Motion
[Book-Reviews:Spirituality-Religion] It takes an intelligent, reasoning mind to follow the intricate thread woven throughout the pattern of life. Try to visualize a floor to ceiling woven hanging. Starting from the floor with the Mineral Kingdom and ending at the top with the weaving in of Spirit, the tapestry will be beautiful with the white of water woven between the colors of each kingdom.
- Tearing Down the Fences of Our Mind
[Health-and-Fitness:Mind-Body-Spirit] To change from 3rd dimensional consciousness to 4th takes much work. We have to stand firm against the pull that society has to "suck" us into the established ways of living and hold us inside the fences of our mind. This pull is very hard to fight and most can't overcome it due to fear of being an outcast from the "tribe." Isn't this a throwback to the days of early man?
- The Difference Between Soul and Spirit
[Health-and-Fitness:Mind-Body-Spirit] Soul is entirely different than spirit. Soul is of manifested matter. Spirit is not. Spirit is not able to be caught and scientifically documented whereas soul is and will be in the future. Soul is the tiny spark of electrical energy that enters the body as the thought form. It is a small "wisp of cloud" that has a pinprick of electricity embedded in it.
- The Divine Sparks Were Fascinated With Planet Earth
[Book-Reviews:Spirituality-Religion] The Creator shattered Himself so He could experience the earth. He found he could not do it in the form of energy He ended up in, that of a spark of electricity. It was still too high a form of energy to experience anything caught in matter. The sparks drifted endlessly for eons playing and gathering together to watch events on earth until the animal progressed enough for them to try to enter it.
- Homosexuality Given More Publicity Than Heterosexuality
[Relationships:Gay-Lesbian] The new energy on our planet is intensifying the 2nd and 3rd chakras. This puts the focus on sexuality coupled with ESP which is stronger between those of the same gender. This is the main cause of increased homosexuality. Homosexuality is not any more prevalent than heterosexual urges; it is being given more publicity because it is out of the normal standards of behavior as set by the churches.
- Human Relationships Patterned After Atoms
[Reference-and-Education:Science] Male bits of condensation are programmed with a complete musical scale. Females are formed of single bits of vibration. The over-frequencies of the male are why he is attracted to all females. The female, being a single frequency, is attracted to only the dominant frequency of any given male. The relationship between humans and atoms will show where patterns for our behavior had their start.
- Seven Chakras of the World Being Formed
[Health-and-Fitness:Alternative] The 1st chakra is being formed in the Middle East; the 2nd in China. This is the area of survival instinct and procreation. The 3rd is being formed in England and will be lead in ESP, etc. The 4th forming in the United States will be a strong, heart chakra. The 5th will be in South America. The 6th one will be in Australia dealing with the powers of the human mind. The 7th will be in Antarctica.
- The First Mind Influenced Everything That Came After
[Self-Improvement:Spirituality] The "big bang" gave birth to the Creator's Mind which caused the creation of everything. The Creator's Mind is the most pure development of anything that could ever be possible. Pure creation is not subject to influence by others. The human mind, on the other hand, is subject to poison and clutter from the first moments of birth on. This is due to evolution which is subject to influence.
- The Chakras Are Organs of the Ethereal Body
[Self-Improvement:Spirituality] The chakras are organs of the ethereal body and work in harmony with the physical organs. The 3 lower chakras draw from that which went before you in time of a physical nature; the 3 higher that which went before of a spiritual nature. These help form your own universe, your heart chakra which functions as a transformer, enabling all the other chakras to work in combination with each other.
- The Passing of Genes is the Secret of Evolution
[Book-Reviews:Health-Mind-Body] The animal-based brain is a physical organ by which genes are passed from physical evolution. These genes are as thought-pictures passed from the parents. They are memories of traumatic, impressionable and even inspiring events that happened to our ancestors. The secret of evolution itself is in the changing of these memories and passing on more highly evolved or knowledgeable thought-pictures.
- Reaching the Powerhouse in Our Brain
[Health-and-Fitness:Mental-Health] To explain the twelve different levels of the powerhouse in our brain we start with level one, the part of the brain keeping our body alive and breathing and continue on to level twelve the highest level you are capable of. At that level you would be able to travel in your physical body without transportation. Yes, in other words fly through the air with no means of propulsion except your mind.
- Understanding Our Four-Part Brain
[Health-and-Fitness:Mental-Health] The human brain is actually divided into four parts. There is a lower left side, levels 1-2-3, for our physical bodies; the lower right, 4-5-6, our emotional bodies; the upper left, 7-8-9, our mental bodies; and the upper right, 10-11-12, our spiritual bodies. The path of progress should be from lower left to lower right, then upper left and upper right, where you will find the apex of your mind.
- The Crystal of Atlantis Was Made Up of Seven Faceted Rings
[Book-Reviews:Spirituality-Religion] The Crystal of Atlantis was thirty feet in diameter at the bottom, and five feet at the crown. It did not track by turning, but was faceted according to the mathematical calculations of the course of the sun. This involved a series of cuts so fine as to be almost one solid ring around the crystal. There was more than one ring; there were seven rings all carved with the most precision-like cuts.
- The Garden of Eden Was a Nutritional Experiment to Help With Intelligence
[Book-Reviews:Spirituality-Religion] After Atlantis was destroyed spacemen from the planet Edentia started a controlled environment growing station, an experiment to see if superior nutrition would create a more thinking, reasoning human. Eden, the genius behind the garden, stayed on earth until he had stabilized the crops. It was determined that the progress of the evolving animals was much more rapid when eating special foods.
- Spaceflights to Earth Began When Planet Cooled
[Book-Reviews:Spirituality-Religion] When earth began to cool the spacemen made their trips to it every thousand years or so. The 1st day (Biblically speaking) was the 1st trip, the 2nd day, the 2nd trip, etc. The Andromedans made the first 2 trips then turned the watch over to the Pleiades galaxy, for the 3rd and 4th days. They then turned it over to Sirion and Venus in the Milky Way Galaxy for the 5th and 6th trips (days).
- The Universe Compared to Whipped Cream Salad
[Book-Reviews:Spirituality-Religion] A simple explanation of God would be as a whipped cream fruit salad. God is the mixture in which all else takes place. The whipped cream (God) is what holds all parts of the salad together. The fruit are individual themselves but without the whipped cream they have little relationship to each other, except that they are all fruit. God is the agent that bonds all together into a finished product.
