As a ghost hunter and paranormal investigator, I have had my
share of experiences with ghosts. I have also had my share of
people asking me how I know it was a ghost that made those
experiences happen. My response goes something like, 'when I get
my hair pulled, my shirt pulled or I get pushed and, when
turning around there is no one there, it's hard for me to say
that it's not a ghost. When performing an investigation, I know
where the other members of the group are and the realization
that I ...

The Mystical Nature of Names
Until relatively recently it was not a common practice to use
your given name among strangers; instead a pseudonym was used
for public display. It was once widely believed that sorcery and
witchcraft could be performed upon a person's true name in order
to control that person or have power over them. The use of given
names was reserved for close friends and confidants.
Medieval demonologists believed that to know the true name of a
demon was to have power over it. ...

Love Yourself and Watch - The Dhammapada
To love yourself is the first step to developing spiritually. We
have been told to love others but not to love ourselves. This is
a very harmful piece of advice and we will get into trouble if
we attempt to follow it.
We have been told that if we love ourselves we will develop a
big ego, become a narcissist and so forth. However the exact
opposite is true. Watch the do-gooders, the people who serve
society, the politicians, the missionaries, and the ...

Evolving world is immeasurably facilitating people's livelihood, especially people living in the western world. Simultaneously, many negative points are persistently attacking Third World and Developing countries, mostly in Southeast Asia, Africa, and Latin America. I was immensely taken aback after I saw UNDP's report; 'more than a billion people still live on less than US$1 a day.' Being one of the citizens living in Cambodia, one of the world's most desperate countries, I have encountered ...

I have always been an enthusiastic reader. When I was very young
I got caught up in reading books about religion, mythology,
etc.. By the time I was seven (7) I had read both the old and
new testaments of the bible, dozens of books about Hinduism,
Buddhism, Islamism and numerous books about ancient mythology.
Being very young I knew nothing about shades of grey and saw
everything in black and white. Therefore, I decided that
everything religious was myth and that there could be no god.
There ...

Seems that everyone who writes to me signs their letters "love
and light." It has such a bright uplifting sound to it.
Lightworkers are being taught to hold the energy of the light
and to equate love with a warm white light that heals and
protects. After what feels like an age of suppression and
darkness, it all sounds like such a refreshing change, much like
the first bits of sunlight after a long harsh winter. And so the
pendulum swings. Still we do not find balance.
Years ago a man came to ...

WOMEN'S INTUITION:
The propaganda against the Jews may have originally been
fomented by the Benjaminites who had been thrown out of the Holy
Land by the people of Israel. The House of Judah or Merovingians
had their Phoenician (Hyksos) kin-folks take these elite
overlords to Arcadia in Greece and they went many other places
where their trading empires were already established after that.
The Golden Bough is a central resource for any student of
religion and magic. In it we see Plutarch and ...

Beginning in 1992 when I first decided to become a ghost
hunter, it never occurred to me that I would end up quitting my
job and focusing strictly on paranormal investigation. This has
become my new career. I made this decision after a series of
occurrences while investigating some buildings and, having no
explanation for these occurrences, decided to search for an
answer.
Today, over ten years later, I have discovered that there is no
answer...just more questions. This led me to again attempt ...

If we don't behave according to a specific church's doctrine,
will our guardian angels turn their backs on us? If we are
struggling with our overall belief in God or we're questioning
the validity of the holy books, will the angels abandon us? What
if we believe in God and in the Bible, but we just feel like
screwing off for awhile? Will they desert us? Do we have to be
good and pure and perfect in order for angels to look after us?
I can only speak from my own experience. I was not raised in ...

Read about how we can better appreciate, empathize with, and
respect the diverse people, energies, and opinions that we come
in contact with on a daily basis.
My Aikido teacher Koichi Tohei sensei used to say that in a
healthy person the flow of their "ki" (the energy inherent
throughout the Universe) is like the outpouring of an
underground spring sitting at the bottom of a deep lake. The
spring feeds water to the lake, much like we can feed the
universe healing energy. The spring feeds the ...

This essay will be in a couple of parts. It is not intended to
be a heavily theological or apologetic work, just an outline of
how I became a Seventh-day Adventist.
Let me introduce myself by telling you a bit of my history. I
recently earned a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from UCLA. I
have a B.S. in Chemistry from Fresno State University.
I became a Seventh-Day Adventist after converting to
Christianity in college. Before that, I was a Chan (a.k.a. Zen)
Buddhist for about a decade. I became ...

"Spirit is beyond the void of space. This realm, beyond the
void, is not an empty nothingness; it is the womb of creation.
-- Nature goes to the same place to create a galaxy of stars, a
cluster of nebulas, a rain forest, a human body, or a thought...
That place is Spirit." (1)
The idea of thought coming from Spirit is a little general and
not something I agree with unless he means REAL thought rather
than regurgitated thought. Deepak Chopra is a great and
wonderful human being who escaped ...

Sometimes when people sign up for
auto finance, the result is they owe more than they had realized. The monthly installments have the potential to be too high for most people to pay so they will begin missing a payment or two and ultimately end up defaulting. Such people almost instantly notice their credit score drop. Getting a loan with reasonable terms is difficult once the credit score gets down to such a low number. So as to avoid this, you need to take it upon yourself to know your way ...
