A Deeper Reality

‘The intuitive mind is a Sacred Gift,
the rational mind its faithful servant.
We have created a society
that honors the servant
and has forgotten the Gift’.
Albert Einstein

flower-pink-and-purple

Deep within us,
beneath
the surface of our conscious mind,
is a place we do not know.
It is
a deeper mind
within.

Most people are far, far away
from this level of awareness.
They live on the fast paced,
often violent surface of the Earth,
with all of its illusions, opportunities,
adventures and misadventures
and misfortunes.

But deep within
there is a burning desire,
a never ending yearning
to find the true
meaning of our
existence.skippy-first-picture-b-jpeg-1200-psi20170204_14324330

Someone
must teach you that Life
is lived for Love and Joy.
I have my Mother to thank. 
– – –  Thank You !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This longing
emanates
from a deeper place
we can only find
within
each of us.

It is
the very Human Heart
in which
our Creator Lives.

When God Created Man
in His Own Image,
He made Mankind
to share
Divine Prerogatives.

YOU
are someone great, wonderful and
different.
You are the most excellent
of all God’s Beautiful Creations.
You are a special expression
of Divine Nature,
Created by God’s own Personal Activity.
God created you with Solemnity
and Dignity,
and with the Honor of an intimate
Divine deliberation.
He created you
with such Love
as you Love
your precious Child.
You are
deeply Loved,
Divine Child

       Yes.
There is a deeper reality.

If this knowledge
can be realized,
if it can be accepted,
WE
will be able to envision
a new reason
for Life
and for Living.

leading to nowhere,

That’s me! A few years back and very much in Love with Life.

  Or can Life be Lived
with the Love
of God
to guide and comfort us?

My Dear Friends,
everyone who Loves,
experiences a relationship
with God.
God dwells deeply within us,
within Infinite
layers of Love.

There is much speculation
about the creative
potential of the mind,
about the degree to which
we can Truly have an impact
upon our own Human experience
here on Earth.sun-set-over-lake-b

Love gives Truth, direction and purpose.

Yes,
the Human mind
creates its own reality.
But there is a
deeper reality,
a Mind
that created YOU,
the Mind of
God.

The mind of Mankind
is constantly striving to gain
privileges, possessions,
and become passionate
about Earthly things.
And the result is
immense suffering,
calamity and discord and death,
not only for ourselves,
but for the whole World.

Will the golden Flower wither soon and die?
Will the fire burn out the land,

Our Human race,
in its quest to conquer and possess,
to digress into the illusion
of ownership,
has disrupted the Natural World
so much,
that now we are confronted
by challenges on a magnitude
that leave us to question
our own survival.

“There were plants and birds and rocks and things
there was sand and hills and rings.
The Ocean is a desert with it’s Life underground
And a perfect disguise above.
Under the cities lies a Heart made of ground
But the Humans will give no Love.
You see I’ve been through the desert
on a Horse with no name.

It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
‘Cause there ain’t no one for to give you no pain.”

The  Deeper Side of Love and Relationship
© 2005 by Corinne McLaughlin and Gordon Davidson

click here to read more

 
The desire for the perfect relationship – walking off into a romantic sunset with your true love and living happily ever after –  is the Holy Grail of our culture, more cherished than winning the biggest sweepstakes.  But how elusive it is!

Why? 

Because the search for the romantic ideal is actually the projected outer form of our inner quest for our soul—only we don’t realize this.  The longing for romance is really our quest for Divine love—for the good, the true and the beautiful within us.  We “fall in love” with another person because we’ve projected our own inner qualities on someone else.  We wouldn’t notice these qualities in this person if they weren’t at least potential within us. 

Some of our great poets and playwrights such as Shakespeare understood this — his sonnets can be read as odes to the soul.  But secular society today just doesn’t get it.  So our entertainment industry stimulates an insatiable hunger for romance, and makes huge profits on it.

Romantic love is elusive because who you see is who you are.  You look out at the world through your self-created lens and see only a reflection of yourself and your own qualities and inner patterns, positive and negative.  You only attract a more loving person by becoming more loving yourself.  And you become more loving through practicing small acts of kindness and appreciation daily, and by meditating on love and opening your heart.  You become more loving by falling in love with your own soul—the center of radiant love within you. 

Romantic love is also elusive because most relationships are based on a union of only one or two levels or dimensions of your being.  But you have four dimensions: physical, emotional, mental, spiritual.  Most relationships are based on a purely physical level, which fade with age and diminishing sexual energy.  It’s not that sexual attraction isn’t good–it’s just very incomplete–involving only a small part of your whole being.

Some relationships include a union on the emotional as well as the physical level, and fewer still include the mental or intellectual level, but these unions are more stable.

Wholeness in a relationship results from union on all four levels—physical, emotional, mental and Spiritual. While this type is somewhat rarer, it is a relationship of true soul mates.  These unions create those unusually loving, creative and intelligent families that attract the birth of a more advanced soul.  This type of union might also fulfill some other higher purpose, such as co-creating a significant project that serves the world in some way.

The quality of the inner note you sound–in other words, what you actually embody–is what determines whom you attract in your life.  Like attracts like.  If you want to attract a relationship that creates a union on all four levels or frequencies of your being, including the spiritual, you have to be conscious on all four levels, expressing a compatible energy on all these levels. 

Types of Love and Relationships If you look closely, you can observe three types of love: 

  1. Soul love — based on the Law of Resonance, which is unconditional, unselfish love, given freely and responsibly, leaving the person free to be him/herself, and desiring only the best for the person; this love is experienced  in the heart center;

  2. Personality love, based on the Law of Attachment, which has conditions or hooks in it and tends to trap others; this type of love says, I’ll love you only as long as you love me in return and fulfill my expectations; this love is experienced on more in the emotional, solar plexus center;
  3. A mixture of soul and personality love, which includes an element of unconditional love, but also has many personal expectations, desires and demands; this type is a mixture of solar plexus and heart energy.

Relationship patterns are endlessly fascinating and can be of several types:

1.      Karmic renewals, where you meet the results of your past actions—both positive and negative–from this life or other lives.  These relationships provide opportunities to learn how to truly love someone and/or to forgive past wrongs.  

2.      Growth experiences, where for example you learn the lesson of being a responsible householder, providing for your family regardless of the personal cost.  Or the relationship could offer you the opportunity to learn a new spiritual quality, such as patience.  Or perhaps your partner embodies some quality that is lacking in you, such as courage, and you learn to develop it by observing it in him or her.  Men can learn to express archetypal feminine qualities from the woman in their relationship; women learn to express archetypal masculine qualities from the man in their relationship. The goal is for both partners to embody a balance of both qualities, as this creates stability–rather than trying to draw the complimentary energy from the other partner.

3.      Soul partnerships, where the purpose of the relationship has a higher dimension of service to the world in some form.  It’s important to keep the energy flow between the two people in balance with the energy expressed in service.  This can be seen as a flow of energy around a triangle, with one person at each point and service as the third point.  There shouldn’t be too much focus on the service aspect without sufficient energy also devoted to maintaining and deepening the relationship between the two people.

Every relationship offers you the opportunity to discover the unique beauty and gifts of that individual.  Everyone has something they can teach you — either in a positive, helpful way, or in a negative way.  Each relationship is an opportunity to open your heart and connect with the soul of another person. 

Take your longing for love a little deeper.  Let it guide you into a deeper experience of union with your Soul, your eternal self.  Allow your heart to open and experience greater love for everyone around you,
for all of life.  As you live in a daily expression of love, you will attract into your life other people who are more loving and supportive.

Knowledge is power,
and LIFE.

         A Love Letter from God.

7 Natural Drinks That Help To Calm Your Nerves
By Urmet Seepter
.
Relaxing has phenomenal health benefits including reducing stress, insomnia and also discouraging the development of cancer and heart diseases. This post discusses natural drinks that you can take to calm your nerves and relax.

        7 Natural Calm-Down Drinks that Will Relax Your Nerves

Pure Coconut Water

Although coconut water has been associated more with its energy-boosting capabilities, it can also help you sleep better. It is an excellent source of magnesium and potassium, the two ingredients that help muscles relax and regulate digestion and improve blood circulation. A small cup of coconut water is richer in potassium than 2 bananas. Also, coconut water is rich in B vitamins that help reduce stress and can also lessen the risks of lower blood pressure and heart attack. It is one of the best remedies you can drink to calm your nerves naturally.

Warm Or Hot Milk

Hot or even warm milk is great for a person who feels that his nerves are shot and they want to fall asleep. Milk contains an amino acid known as tryptophan and this is what helps you calm your nerves. If you want sweet antioxidant boost, mix it with a little honey. Next time you are unable to calm your nerves, just drink warm or hot milk. It can work wonders.

Tart Cherry Juice

According to studies, drinking tart cherry juice has overwhelming benefits to your body. Some of its advantages include reducing inflammation associated with arthritis and heart disease, encouraging normal levels of uric acid (this can ease gout), lowering blood cholesterol, encouraging healthy joints and improving muscle recovery.

It also has great sleep advantages in addition to promoting a lovely skin. It is common to see some of the best athletes take this drink in the middle of their performances.

Herbal Teas

There are many herbal teas that can help your anxiety. However, it is important that whatever tea you choose to take, it should not contain caffeine.

Below are the common herbal teas that you can drink to calm your nerves.

Kava.

This is by far the best known herbal tea for dealing with anxiety. Many times, its effects are likened to those of Buspar, a common anxiety drug, and it appears to possess all the traits of a herbal remedy. This includes being non-addictive, completely natural as well as the fact that it can be consumed whenever needed. However, it is instructive to take note of a few things regarding kava tea. Firstly, the kava tea bought at your local grocery store is not good enough to relax you. While the basic teas provide only 30-50 kavalactones, you need up to 300 or more for you to see any calming effects. The trick is to find a purer herbal tea, such as those that are normally stocked in tea shops. Also, it is advisable to mix it with a drink that contains fats, like coconut milk or butter. Another thing is that kava is very strong and is likely to interact with certain medications. Also, never take it with alcohol. If you have liver disease, kava tea is not for you. NB! This drink must not be taken without a doctor’s nod.

Passionflower Tea.

Passionflower tea works similar to kava. However, it is not strong the way kava is but has lots of benefits. It offers great calming effects the same way kava does but it does not have the side effects associated with kava.

Valerian Root Tea. This type of herbal tea is not necessarily designed for anxiety. However, it still has the calming effects that can soothe anxiety symptoms. Traditionally, valerian tea was used to aid people in sleeping. Many people who suffer from insomnia use valerian root tea to help them catch a few winks of sleep.

Oat Straw

Oat straw may be good for you if you want something to drink to calm your nerves. It is a well known remedy that has been used over the years to cure exhaustion and depression. However, this is not a magic drink that will relieve you of your anxiety in an instant. It must be taken for some time, like a month, for it to have calming effects on you. You can find it in stores that sell natural remedies and herbs.

Green Tea

Green tea has many health benefits, and one of these is stress relief. The reason for its stress relief is mainly because of theanine it contains, an important calming agent. Like the herbal teas above, it is important that you drink decaffeinated green tea. Caffeine is in fact a stimulant and cannot produce the calming effects that you need.

Honey-Infused Drinks

If, for some reason, you cannot use herbal teas, just take any of the drinks mentioned above and infuse them with honey for roughly two weeks. When you feel ready to drink a cup, just mix a table spoon of honey or tea mixture into hot water, hot milk or coconut water and drink it up. It will calm your nerves and help you relax.

Relaxing is important for a healthy person. However, the busy lifestyles that most of us find ourselves in today deprive us of time to relax. But the good news is that there are indeed natural drinks that you can take to calm your nerves.

Will the last word ever spoken be
WHY?”
Roger Whittaker

Beyond the pale of our understanding.

Our Human race,
in its quest to conquer and possess,
to digress into the illusion
of ownership,
has disrupted the Natural World
so much,
that now we are confronted
by challenges on a magnitude
that leave us to question
our own survival.

“There were plants and birds and rocks and things
there was sand and hills and rings.
The ocean is a desert with it’s life underground
And a perfect disguise above.
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
But the humans will give no Love.
You see I’ve been through the desert
on a Horse with no name.

It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
‘Cause there ain’t no one for to give you no pain.”
America

Such illusory, illogical aberrations of thought
bring us out of conscious alignment
with the rhythms of Nature
and Natural Wisdom.
And now,
we find it almost impossible
to align with our deeper,
natural
sense of self.

We cannot
even identify
our self.

“You think you own
whatever land you land on,

The Earth is just a dead thing you can claim.
But I know every rock and tree and creature
Has a Life,
Has a Spirit,
Has a Name.

Come run the hidden pine trails of the Forest.
Come taste the sun sweet berries of the Earth.
Come roll in all the riches all around you
And for once, never wonder what they’re worth.

The rainstorm and the river are my brothers.
The Heron and the Otter are my friends.
And we are all connected to each other
In a circle, in a hoop that never ends.

You can own the Earth and still
All you’ll own is Earth,
Until

You can paint
With all the colors of the wind.
Stephen Schwartz

By altering our climate
we create new dimensions
of stress and uncertainty.
We are no longer
prepared for the future,
a future we cannot
predict.

But God,
My Friends,
dwells in the World
we live in.
And He
will prepare you
and strengthen you.
He will Love you.

“The Bible
is a love letter
from God.

George Norwood, Deepermind.com

Tomorrow
is beyond the pale
of our understanding.
The future will require
a depth of understanding
and knowledge
and Compassion
that only
the Love of God
can provide.

God has placed within you
the strength
for you
to face the difficult times ahead
and deeper intelligence
in His Sacred Knowledge.

The answers lie
buried
deep within.

Goodnight.

7 Natural Drinks That Help To Calm Your Nerves
By Urmet Seepter

Relaxing has phenomenal health benefits including reducing stress, insomnia and also discouraging the development of cancer and heart diseases. This post discusses natural drinks that you can take to calm your nerves and relax.

7 Natural Calm-Down Drinks that Will Relax Your Nerves

  1. Pure Coconut Water

Although coconut water has been associated more with its energy-boosting capabilities, it can also help you sleep better. It is an excellent source of magnesium and potassium, the two ingredients that help muscles relax and regulate digestion and improve blood circulation. A small cup of coconut water is richer in potassium than 2 bananas. Also, coconut water is rich in B vitamins that help reduce stress and can also lessen the risks of lower blood pressure and heart attack. It is one of the best remedies you can drink to calm your nerves naturally.

  1. Warm Or Hot Milk

Hot or even warm milk is great for a person who feels that his nerves are shot and they want to fall asleep. Milk contains an amino acid known as tryptophan and this is what helps you calm your nerves. If you want sweet antioxidant boost, mix it with a little honey. Next time you are unable to calm your nerves, just drink warm or hot milk. It can work wonders.

  1. Tart Cherry Juice

According to studies, drinking tart cherry juice has overwhelming benefits to your body. Some of its advantages include reducing inflammation associated with arthritis and heart disease, encouraging normal levels of uric acid (this can ease gout), lowering blood cholesterol, encouraging healthy joints and improving muscle recovery.

It also has great sleep advantages in addition to promoting a lovely skin. It is common to see some of the best athletes take this drink in the middle of their performances.

  1. Herbal Teas

There are many herbal teas that can help your anxiety. However, it is important that whatever tea you choose to take, it should not contain caffeine.

Below are the common herbal teas that you can drink to calm your nerves.

    Kava. This is by far the best known herbal tea for dealing with anxiety. Many times, its effects are likened to those of Buspar, a common anxiety drug, and it appears to possess all the traits of a herbal remedy. This includes being non-addictive, completely natural as well as the fact that it can be consumed whenever needed. However, it is instructive to take note of a few things regarding kava tea. Firstly, the kava tea bought at your local grocery store is not good enough to relax you. While the basic teas provide only 30-50 kavalactones, you need up to 300 or more for you to see any calming effects. The trick is to find a purer herbal tea, such as those that are normally stocked in tea shops. Also, it is advisable to mix it with a drink that contains fats, like coconut milk or butter.Another thing is that kava is very strong and is likely to interact with certain medications. Also, never take it with alcohol. If you have liver disease, kava tea is not for you. NB! This drink must not be taken without a doctor’s nod.

Passionflower Tea. Passionflower tea works similar to kava. However, it is not strong the way kava is but has lots of benefits. It offers great calming effects the same way kava does but it does not have the side effects associated with kava.

   Valerian Root Tea. This type of herbal tea is not necessarily designed for anxiety. However, it still has the calming effects that can soothe anxiety symptoms. Traditionally, valerian tea was used to aid people in sleeping. Many people who suffer from insomnia use valerian root tea to help them catch a few winks of sleep.

  1. Oat Straw

Oat straw may be good for you if you want something to drink to calm your nerves. It is a well known remedy that has been used over the years to cure exhaustion and depression. However, this is not a magic drink that will relieve you of your anxiety in an instant. It must be taken for some time, like a month, for it to have calming effects on you. You can find it in stores that sell natural remedies and herbs.

  1. Green Tea

Green tea has many health benefits, and one of these is stress relief. The reason for its stress relief is mainly because of theanine it contains, an important calming agent. Like the herbal teas above, it is important that you drink decaffeinated green tea. Caffeine is in fact a stimulant and cannot produce the calming effects that you need.

  1. Honey-Infused Drinks

If, for some reason, you cannot use herbal teas, just take any of the drinks mentioned above and infuse them with honey for roughly two weeks. When you feel ready to drink a cup, just mix a table spoon of honey or tea mixture into hot water, hot milk or coconut water and drink it up. It will calm your nerves and help you relax.

Relaxing is important for a healthy person. However, the busy lifestyles that most of us find ourselves in today deprive us of time to relax. But the good news is that there are indeed natural drinks that you can take to calm your nerves.
