ARTArticleSelf-Assessment is Very ImportantSelf-Assessment is Very Importantrn(Vinod Anand)ARTArticleSkin Care Expert Recommends Analysis Before Product PurchaseSkin care products, they’re everywhere! On the TV, Internet, and department store beauty counters. They promise beautiful skin for their devoted followers. But how do you really know if these products are working for you?

There is so much confusion about which skin care products consumers actually need, because the average consumer does not know his or her skin type.ARTArticleSmoke MeditativelySmoke Meditativelyrn[Vinod Anand] Many people cannot drop the habit of chain-smoking. They do try hard but they normally fail. Some people say that is a sin to smoke. I would suggest that don’t make a mountain out of a molehill! Now, what are you really doing when you are smoking?

We can start by saying that one gets a desire to pursue spirituality and hence goes ahead with it.ARTArticleSpiritual Practices of a Midlife CrisisDuring midlife crisis, your foundation is shaken. You see yourself growing older and realize that your days are numbered. What you thought was true may be called into question. You suffer losses and setbacks, and you begin to ask big questions: “Why is this happening to me?” “Why do I seem to want to go in two directions at the same time?” “Where am I going?” and “Who am I?” These are spiritual questions, and I believe the midlife transition is, at least in part, a spiritual journey. Here are six spiritual practices that can bring you peace while also moving you down the midlife path.r ARTArticleSpiritual ProgressSpiritual Progressrn(Vinod Anand) What is the subject of the enjoyer? It is the mind. The mind undergoes physical as well as intellectual experiences. The experience of spiritual bliss is psycho-spiritual and partly mental by nature.

Physical and intellectual happiness, both of which are enjoyed by the mind, are therefore vibrational.ARTArticleSpirituality is Synthesis, it is OnenessSpirituality is Synthesis, it is Onenessrn(Vinod Anand) A British author has described Jesus as a Sufi. Jesus was pure; he was love personified. Love is the motif of Sufism. Perhaps that is the reason why the author is calling Jesus a Sufi. In the same why, scholar Sheikh Saleem Ahmed has described Guru Nanak, Buddha and Kabir as Sufis.ARTArticleSPRING CLEAN your Home with Feng ShuiBefore winter comes to an end, its time to start thinking about spring cleaning.

Get rid of any object in your front entrance that doesn't belong there.ARTArticleStay Calm No Matter What HappensStay Calm No Matter What Happensrn(Vinod Anand) On any given day, our emotional state changes many times, one moment, something good happens to us and we are joyful.

Next, on the way home, someone cuts us off on the highway and we are enraged.ARTArticleSuccessful Attraction Marketing Starts With ThisSuccessful attraction marketing is all about the vibration you carry as you engage with your prospects and customers. As a successful home business or network marketing professional, before you start into the activities of your day, think about the things you can do to get yourself grounded and started out well so that you approach your day in a fashion that serves you well as you move forward in building your business. When you first wake up in the morning, you want to "set" the level of vibration you carry into your day.ARTArticleTake the True Inner PilgrimageTake the True Inner Pilgrimagern(Vinod Anand) The Brahmasutra Bhashya of Sankara is an abstruse exposition of his advaitic thought, best summed up in a classic line from the l3hashya: “Brahmn satyamjagat mithya jivo Brahmaivah napara” — Brahmn alone is real, the world is illusory; the individual and the universal soul are one”. However, it is in the smaller poetic compositions that Sankara puts these abstruse advaitic concepts within easy grasp of the average individual, using everyday references to illustrate the concepts.ARTArticleTake Your Business To the Next Level With GoogleRemember the game of king of the hill? It was a game where when you knocked the king of the hill off of the hill, you became the next king.

This is a coveted and heavily guarded position on the internet because it allows you to receive the most exposure to clients, the most clicks and the most sales.ARTArticleTeen Acne……Help!The effects of teen acne go so much deeper than what you see on the outside.

Logic leads to material gains, while love warms the heart and leads to emotional and spiritual gain. In life, both are required. The ete al battle between mind and heart is something all of us have to contend with. You are made up of body, mind, heart and soul.ARTArticleThe Ete al Light Lies WithinThe Ete al Light Lies Within All of us do not see or hear the same way at life or the world. That explains why there are believers and non-believers of all hues. Jesus said that one should fix one’s affections on heavenly things and not lay up treasures upon this earth, neglecting more enduring matters of the soul.ARTArticleThe Gift: Economic PerspectivesThe Gift: Economic Perspectivesrn[Vinod Anand] As we know, there are three values (gifts) of economic life: Freedom, Justice and Care. Let us briefly look at the economic perspective of gift: In economics gifts have also received some attention too. It will come as no surprise that most economists have done so within their conventional framework of explanation, that is, by explaining gifts both in terms of exchange and in terms of utility maximization.

Small, insignificant wrongs like bumping accidentally into someone or stepping on someone’s foot elicit a spontaneous, even nonchalant apology from the perpetrator.ARTArticleThe Science of Human Technology: The Creation of the Super HumanRecently, science has progressed in the area of human technology.
