Spirituality for Living

I find that just as in physics, resistance plays a big part in spirituality as well. What we resist isn’t removed by our resistance, and much of orthodox religious teaching seems to extol resistance, denial, asceticism. I suppose they can create a supportive context for spiritual growth, but these days in most cultures there really [...]

About changing essential nature… I can turn water into vapour. It’s in waters nature to become vapour. You interact with it, but you don’t change its nature. The sun makes it vapour also. It is a part of what we consider “unseen” but it is very much the essence, it’s spirit.
The sun also turns oceans [...]

Does anyone have a strong belief that seems contradicted by life? Say you believe in the law of attraction. Really invested in the idea of the law of attraction, but you perceive that it doesn’t seem to work?
I’m not so sure that life contradicts what I believe rather than most people’s perceptions – the ‘common’ view – [...]

I have an issue of action to share. Recently I had an issue with a loss of trust. Major broad spectrum loss of trust. It was activating me like crazy. I didn’t like feeling so badly about people, even about people I love. Well no amount of action was going to fix that. I was [...]

So eliminate the concept of future… or past? Even physics suggests that future and past are actually not evidenced in the nature of the systems we use the ideas to describe. In being timeless you are being what you are at the core, the soul.
It is hard to live without time, maybe impossible. The Persians [...]

Karma is a sort of tricky topic. Karma isn’t a force unto itself. It is more an aspect of other forces in life, like thought and emotion. Everything that transpires around us and in us has a karmic trait to it. A degree of impact, and it doesn’t have an effect entirely of its own [...]

Is the sole purposes of most religions to explain the universe and crowd control? Hmm, yes, except for explaining the universe. Religion sets up a paradigm that supports the temporal authority of that institution whatever body politic.
Religion as a primitive physics? Physics isn’t primitive? Why to date is cold fusion supposedly untenable? Why do we implement [...]

The ‘Working with Chakras’ series of posts is an interview of a conversation on the chakras. What they are, and how you can work with them. We hope you find it of value in furthering your understanding of energy and personal growth. Working with Chakras: Part I starts with an overview, Part II begins to use [...]

If you are fascinated with the astral plane, this is where you lose control because you set it apart. You see it as special, and disempowered yourself from dealing with it. When you set it apart you blind yourself, and many people do. They don’t want to engage. They want a fantasy story. They want [...]

We are nothing more than the minds reach away from the elements. The minds reach away from our own bodies and our minds obey us. But we forget we aren’t what we think we are, we just are. Thinking serves a purpose, but our purpose isn’t defined by thought.
Myself, I am rather “fiery” and regrettably [...]

How exactly do these planetary bodies ‘plug in’ so to speak and influence me? They are large scope or macrocosmic influences, and as things move them they move literally everything else. Like how we have more storms during sunspot activity. So in astrology they seek to see these large scale forces on a human level.
The [...]

Pride is really sort of a controversial topic. We are warned against pride, like we will become our own Mr. Hyde if we take any enjoyment in what we are about, or what we do of our own free will. Yet people also say that there is a problem with people having low self esteem.
The popular view [...]

The Demiurge has manifested in many ways, many guises, Loki, Ahriman, Iblis, the being of “smokeless” fire who refused Allah’s edict to serve man. It’s a very long list. Horus. He is the eye in the sky and the maker of rules, to use some lines from a song.  “I’m the eye in the sky [...]

Faith is a tricky concept, and sort of muddles with the other principle of trust. They aren’t identical. We know in this day and age that our senses can deceive us, yes? Yet what do we have to rely on but our senses? So knowing they deceive we still have to use them, don’t we?
Is [...]

There is a term they use in particle physics, but it has been popularized in parapsychology.  Psi, or the psi factor. It was a value used to explain that although any two particles are detectable as separate bodies, the force makes them act as a single object though we cannot detect this force. It’s well [...]

The definition of astral energy is any spiritual/psychic energy. Life force. It is the raw life force. It’s the “observer force” from physics. It’s why they say in the Bible, if there were no human beings the rocks would praise God.
Is it like when people have out of body experiences? Yes, it’s like that if [...]

Attention is one power of astral logistics.  The other power we have of astral logistics is intention. We are told intention doesn’t matter, and that it doesn’t matter what you intend to do. It’s a clever trick, because it keeps us off our feet. It keeps us doing what we must. If we keep paying [...]

Synchronicity is in a way very simple. It’s an observation that events in consciousness and events in the material world tend to synchronize similar to the observer phenomenon in science. Essentially it’s the identity of the event with the thought or state of being.
There is an interesting correspondence, you cannot imagine something that has literally [...]

The subject is love, and I will be attempting to discuss love in a broad sense. There is a principle in nature, and by nature I don’t mean the conventional sense, but nature as the primal essence from which evident things emanate. The principle seems to be a healing/balancing force.
As a matter of general balance, [...]

I had a dog who got very sick, and I had to put him to sleep. He always slept in one particular spot on the bed, and my other two dogs will not sleep in his spot to this very day.  It’s been over two years. They do sense his psychic imprint, though his scent [...]
