ARTArticleHow to Be Happy“Happiness resides not in possessions and not in gold; the feeling of happiness dwells in the soul.” – Democritus
I once met a woman who had a little dog. The dog was very sweet and quiet, and wore a yellow uniform that said “Therapy Dog” in block letters. I was impressed by it’s patience, and evident attention to her needs.
As she sat I watched the dog adjust so he could be closer to her. ”What a lovely friend,” I said in admiration.
“He’s supposed to make me feel better,” she said. ”But he doesn’t work.”ARTArticleHow to Be Happy“Happiness resides not in possessions and not in gold; the feeling of happiness dwells in the soul.” – Democritus

Other names for physical mind include personality or ego. This aspect of consciousness exists for the purpose of allowing you to focus in physical reality and in general, make sense of it. The physical organ that processes the activity of the mind is the brain.

atives to psychiatry and taking pills? The following explores how you can not only feel better for a while but free yourself of the very roots of suffering, of repeating the patterns of negative karma.ARTArticleI Am HomeWhen I arrived home from work the other day, I sighed to myself, “I am home” as I closed the front door and began taking off my work boots. Then the significance of those words hit me like a powerful mantra; I Am Home! Stop for a moment to consider the deeper levels of interpretation this statement carries. What does home mean to you? To me, home is Om, as well as a heartfelt place to rest your head.rARTArticleIgnorance is BlissWhile the world is in a total state of conflict and chaos, your inner world can be calm and centered. Sounds too good to be true? It is time to recognize that the immense changes that we as a species along with our planet are going through is nothing less than a total transformation, from the inside out.ARTArticleIs the Self-Development Industry Selling Snake Oil?I’ve been a self-development junkie from the time I read “How to Think like Leonardo da Vinci” by Michael J Gelb over eight years ago. The book taught me the importance of keeping a journal which I have been doing consistently for at least 8 years now. From that springboard I dove into the self-growth ocean exploring all the flora and fauna with enthusiasm and delight.
I took a tough online course called Tools to Life and graduated much to my surprise about five months later...surprised because my history at completing projects was notoriously bad.ARTArticleIt's All (and) About Time - and, Now is The Time to Do Something About ItOn January 11, 2011 the window of opportunity opens even wider now with an influx of Unity Consciousness energy that the Solar Eclipse/New Moon initiated on Jan 4th.ARTArticleKava in FijiKava is a mild liquid intoxicant and a large element in Fijian culture. And it’s legal. This is the liquid drug or beverage of choice in most of Melanesia and Polynesia. Kava or kava-kava’s scientific name is (Piper methysticum) (Piper: Latin for 'pepper', methysticum: (Latinized) Greek for 'intoxicating'). The roots of the plant are used to produce a drink with sedative and anesthetic properties. Kava is consumed throughout the Pacific Ocean cultures of Polynesia (including Hawaii), Vanuatu, Melanesia and some parts of Micronesia.ARTArticleLifting SELF up instead of putting SELF downYa KNOW how YOU are ALLways there to lift the spirits of yOUR friends & family, tell’em how fabYOUlous they are and that everything is gonna work out and BE OK?

By the same token, do your emotions just happen all by themselves, or do your thoughts create the happy, sad and everything in-between emotional response?
Feeling sad, hopeless or succumbing to the constant dark cloud of depression is a result of continuous thinking about the aspects or challenges that you are currently facing. If all you think about is how bad you feel in this moment, you will continue to feel bad in the next moment as well.ARTArticleMeeting Babaji at the 1995 Kumbha MelaAs fate and karma would have it, I attended the 1995 Kumbha Mela festival in India, where Babaji appeared to me. This Mela was the ardh or six-year festival, with only ten million sadhu, holy men and spiritual seekers in attendance, compared to the twelve-year cycle Maha Kumbha Mela that often reaches even greater numbers, like up to seventy million souls. It is believed that this Kumbha Mela has been going on as far back as nearly 3500 BC. To even be here, is the equivalent of a thousand other pilgrimages!ARTArticleMelek Metatron: Drops of Blessing; Energy Transmissions from Angel Chamuel, Lady Nada, Seraphis Bey, Jesus, Ashtar SheranI am Melek Metatron. With the words OMAR TA SATT I greet you as what I am: the Eye of God.ARTArticleMore Tips for Positive ThinkingEveryone has been in a room where one person seems to stand out. They aren’t necessarily the leader or the biggest person in the room, but everyone will look to them for advice, or they will want to talk to that person, just to be close to them. Standing back, you may see that they aren’t dressed any differently than everyone else or they aren’t physically bigger. There is something about them though that makes them stand out. It is simply because they have a better outlook on life than everybody else.ARTArticleMy 1968 Grand Tour of EuropeMy parents gave me a Grand Tour of Europe as an initiation into life, back in 1968. The export model Volkswagen bus, which cost $1900 new, was a gift which would later be sent home and travel the United States with me. My friend Randy and I started our trip in Holland, where we saw A
Frank’s upstairs hidden apartment, the famous “red light” district, numerous canals and tulips and learned all about how Edam cheese was made. Most of our trip, we survived on Edam cheese. Ann’s place and the girls of the night made quite an impression on us.ARTArticleMy Favorite QuoteMy favorite quote is this one:
"A ship in the harbor is safe, but that's not where ships were meant to be."
I don't know where the quote comes from, but I think of it at those times when I hesitate to do something that I want to do, out of fear. Being comfortable and safe is nice, but it isn't everything. We only grow when we step out of our safe havens (harbors) and risk riding the waves of life. It is only then we can potentially see new worlds, or at least new ways of looking at the world, and our role in it.ARTArticleMy Path to A Course in MiraclesLooking back now, my path to A Course in Miracles probably all started in 1969 when I accepted Jesus my personal Lord and Savior, under the influence of the Campus Crusade for Christ. However, after joining a Christian brotherhood of aspiring monks, where I was daily quizzed on how many Bible verses I had memorized and could recite verbatim, I was totally confused by it all. Their version of reality just didn’t sit well with me. I felt like a parrot of Bible verses, that I didn’t even begin to understand, or the town crier that nobody wanted to hear. Jesus would show me more, much more.ARTArticleMy Peyote MeetingMany years ago, I was having serious problems and facing possible prison time, all because of alcohol. I didn’t really realize fully yet that I was an alcoholic and still hadn’t hit my bottom. I was told I should have my own peyote meeting, as an emergency healing service. I did just that. However, I want to be clear here. I do not want to offend or disrespect the Native American Church or any of its members, by relating my story of sitting up on peyote. With the advent of the internet, it is all out there anyway.ARTArticleMy Promenade to VeganosityI’m a vegetarian, walking it would now seem, to a life of veganosity…..
YES I make up words…….the daughter of an English Teacher…..as long as ya get my meaning……rn..how does it really hurt???
Break free from the constraints my sweet angels………ask YOUr SELF, “how does it really hurt??”…..And if it doesn’t, then do, do, do, that which flows through you, naturally, in/of/through LOVE……of course?
And as we continue along the flow of DOing that which we LOVE to DO, I offer you my arm as we promenade the venture through, “BEing”….ARTArticleMy Spiritual Journey in ReoveryMy Spiritual Journey in Recovery
The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost influenced my personal interpretation that I wrote for my ENG 190, Arizona Western College 1996. I hope you enjoy and feel the depth of my passion in recovery.
“The Road Not Taken revealed the message to me, that if I wanted to live a Spiritual Life; I must take the way of The Road Less Traveled by M. Scott Peck. Life is difficult and complex”.ARTArticleOld Soul Quiz: Find Out How You’re Progressing SpirituallyAre you an old soul? The term is commonly used to describe someone mature beyond their years, or spiritually defined as someone who has lived many, many lives.
However, our many years of past life regression research has shown us that there are younger souls who are just as or more spiritually aware as the so-called older souls; being an older soul could be, in many cases, that it’s taken them a lot longer to learn their lessons. Just because you’ve gone through the motions of attending class and enduring exams doesn’t mean you’ve done well in school.ARTArticleOnly One Out Of Ten Will Make ItDid you ever hear this statement made around the rooms of recovery? Did you ever wonder where those statistics came from? Well I have a revelation for you. Read this and receive it. Ask your self where the other nine are? Go to the lost sheep!ARTArticleOsama and the Karma of State-sponsored KillingIn the light of 9-11 and the killing of Osama bin Laden we understand the reactions of revenge and of hatred. Their expression was easy enough to see in the outburst of joy at his death in many parts of the US. It made some of us rather uncomfortable.
That we are staging the equivalent of the mob scenes we see on TV that burn American flags, is pathetic and not a reason for pride.
What are the implications of a state-sponsored killing from a spiritual perspective? Are there karmic repercussions for us since it was done by our government in our name? How do we best react to that?ARTArticleOur Emotions - The Purpose of the Emotional SpectrumWe are living in a unique period of time, where the world, and everyone in it is experiencing, processing and releasing the eons of trauma and pain through the evolutionary transformation we are currently undergoing. Many of us are overwhelmed, if not depressed, and without a clear understanding of how to handle and express our feelings of emotional overwhelm.ARTArticlePatt Manna's "Experience Strength and Hope"I am a believe
who struggled with co-dependency and alcohol. The first time I was exposed to the Twelve Steps, it was in Alcoholics Anonymous and they gave me sobriety from alcohol. I was on the 4th step working this program, when my sponsor sent me to Adult Children of Alcoholics (ACA), and Co-dependents Anonymous (Coda) to find myself and identify where the pain in my life was coming from. In other words, my sponsor recognized her limitations and I recognized her frustrations in working with me. The last thing my sponsor told me to do was to go to my chemically dependent meetings daily.ARTArticlePositive Daily AffirmationsGetting what we want in life can seem like a very difficult task to accomplish. What’s more, most people believe that they have no control over how well they do in life. This is an untruth! You can completely control how you live your life, and how successful you become from it. All it takes is the right kind of attitude to excel in life. The easiest way to help affect your attitude is with a good set of positive daily affirmations.ARTArticlePositive Thinking ExercisesWillpower is a powerful weapon to have in your personal arsenal. With enough willpower, it is possible to survive traumatic experiences that most people wouldn’t think it was possible to survive from. For example, if you get into a car crash, you can just give up and let yourself go, or you can tell yourself that you will survive and be OK. In that situation, who do you think would be the most likely to survive? The person who uses positive thinking exercises to will himself to stay alive. Just repeating the mantra that you will survive is an example of a positive thinking exercise.ARTArticlePositive Thinking TipsThe power of positive thinking is something that has been under rated, but has been commonly used for centuries. Anyone who has ever achieved anything in life has gotten it by the using their own set of positive thinking tips. World leaders have used them, business executives use them, and even new mothers use them. Everyone uses positive thinking tips without even realizing that they are. Explaining these tips can be vague sometimes, because people don’t always use the best examples.ARTArticlePrison DhammaThe wise man will not look for the faults of others,
or for what they have done or left undone.
Rather he will look at his own misdeeds.
Dhammapada verse : 50
Many years ago, whilst living on the Isle of Man, I was invited to present a Dhamma Talk at the local prison. I had become quite well known as a Buddhist practitioner and teacher, and then as now, always eager to serve the Dhamma, so I was happy to agree.ARTArticleRecovery in prisonBack in 1983, I began reading "A Course in Miracles" and doing the daily lessons in thought reversal. However, the text part of the Course was overwhelming to me then; I felt I was too young to really understand it, and I was in my early thirties. I did realize that this book held all the answers to life's greatest questions and offered a new way of seeing things. But each sentence I had to re-read over many times to get it. Then twenty years later, I find myself in prison doing 2.5 years for a felony DUI.When I was at my lowest point in my life, the Course returns to me there.
