The Law of Opposites
In these times when the media is bombarding us with so many negative images, it can be helpful to know about the Law of Opposites. This is an energy principle that goes something like this: all things co-exist simultaneously: happiness/unhappiness, health/sickness/prosperity/recession-depression.And the place where these things co-exist is in our consciousness. It’s a tricky thing […]
Resonate
An interesting word and one with many meanings, depending on how you employ it. When you initially use it, you often think about the effects of something on yourself, such as “this really resonated with me.” But “resonate” could also be used as an imperative, such as “resonate in what you do.” When used like […]
Flip It
It is said as part of Buddhist philosophy that many opposites can co-exist simultaneously: good and evil, happiness and sadness, prosperity and recession, etc. Of course, we are talking about consciousness here: one person’s recession is another person’s prosperity. Understanding this concept can provide quite a bit of comfort in these tumultuous times, especially when […]
Forgiveness
The notion of forgiveness is not a new topic, but I think it bears re-examining at this point. That’s because it is the beginning of the year, and also we are being bombarded with all kinds of explanations and opportunities to blame others for the so called “economic meltdown” that is heralded by the media.

Happiness is that elusive thing that we all seem to be seeking. After all “the pursuit of happiness” is even mentioned in the American Constitution.

The Absorption Factor
The holidays are always a good time to test ourselves and see how far we have come in terms of “staying the course.” Every get together with friends and particularly family members can be an amazing experience if we look at it that way. We might not like every member of our family and invariably […]
Illusions and Delusions
This is a very powerful time we are living through, with lots of passion unleashed due to the political, economic and social changes we see around us. It’s hard to go anywhere these days in the United States without being confronted by this. Whether you like it or not, people express their opinions on a […]
Heal Yourself
I recently read a novel that was so good that I want to recommend it to you guys. It’s called “The Exception” by Christian Jungersen. Apart from the fact that it was an amazing thriller set in the Copenhagen Denmark(fictional)Office for Genocide Studies, the book really showed how seemingly “nice” people are capable of the […]

Don’t let the headlines, the hype, the sad stories in the news control you. Remember, it is the quality of your energy, your sincerity, your purposefulness, that determines whether you can […]
