The Seven Rays of Divine Manifestation

By: William Meader Who am I? Strangely, this powerful question is one that seems difficult to fully answer. It is a question that is asked by each of us, either consciously or unconsciously, every day of our lives. In fact, it is not an exaggeration to say that all aspects of life are arenas wherein we seek answers to this question. Though sometimes difficult to recognize, our personal relationships, the career path we follow, and the beliefs we hold to be true, are all unconscious attempts at answering this perplexing question. Who am I? When looked at from a spiritual perspective, it is the search for the Soul that is our quest. But how do we recognize the Soul within? And perhaps more importantly, is […] Read More

Your Astrological Signs: The Lessons of Karma and the Responsibility and Maturity of the Soul

by Stephen Poplin, M.A.   Each sign needs to express a theme and/or perspective, which is “important for the individual within a society to admit or to” recognize. If it–this theme–is integrated, it will make an obvious and positive impact. If not, it will be felt as an incomplete aspect of self, an unfulfilled wish or potential for the individual. The mature soul should recognize the cause and effect factor, Karma, and that reaping follows sowing. Effort is needed in order to get the “return.” The immature soul will want–and even demand–the effect or reward without considering the cause or effort necessary to create or earn it. This is somewhat like the lottery hopefuls–waiting for their “reward;” or even the religious, waiting to be saved with […] Read More

A LETTER FROM DEEPAK CHOPRA

~ A LETTER FROM DEEPAK CHOPRA ~ We are the only creatures on the planet who can change our biology through our thoughts, feelings, and intentions. Our cells are constantly eavesdropping on our thoughts and being changed by them. When we fall in love, positive thoughts and emotions course through our body and strengthen our immune system. On the other hand, the dark thoughts and feelings of depression can leave us vulnerable to illness. Over the past three decades, hundreds of studies have shown that nothing holds more power over the body than the beliefs of the mind. This is the quantum worldview, which teaches that we are all part of an infinite field of intelligence ­ the source of our thoughts, mind, body, and […] Read More

Leaving It All Behind – Resolving Our Past Lives

by Talia Shafir It’s a delicious irony that the people believed to be the last of the ancient Incas, culturally preserved in the purity of their high Andean refuge until 1949, are the bearers of the universal message to leave the past behind, drop our differences and change our relationship to time. Having escaped the marauding conquistadors, the Q’ero Elders have spent the last 500 years guarding a sacred prophecy of “pachacuti”, taken from the name of an ancient Incan ruler meaning ‘he who transforms the world’. “Pachacuti” heralds a world of union and possibilities, of harmony and natural order, signaling the end of chaos and disarray. The last one took place 500 years ago. The Q’ero await the next one which they say is […] Read More

The latter constitutes a domain of universality and of […] Read More

Get Rhythm – Drumming Technique

By Robert Lawrence Friedman When Ginger Graziano lost her 19-year-old son to cancer, a tsunami of grief poured over her, leaving her in a seething, inarticulate depression. Without a way to express her anguish, she says, the pain became unbearable. Then one day she heard a drum beat from a nearby meadow and felt an immediate, visceral response. Although she had never played any kind of drum before, she went right out and bought one’a djembe, an African drum. Some instinct told her that whatever she needed to heal, she could access by drumming. The first time she sat down and began to beat on the drum, she felt the naked ferocity of anger pouring through her hands. Over time, however, anger gave way to […] Read More

RAINBOWS

The Peruvian Shaman K’ichy has said that the The full spectrum rainbow with at least seven colors will become the most sacred symbol of the emerging time. The so called ” new age”. A symbol of hope and diversity and completeness.

The rainbow appears in the part of the sky opposite the sun and is an arc of 180 degrees. It is caused by the refraction […] Read More
