Is there real heart behind the Oneness hype?
The Oneness Temple of Amma-Bhagwan in India rises majestically above the dusty plains and poverty that surround it. Twenty times the size of the Taj Mahal, this controversial three-floor marble icon of oneness makes quite a statement in itself.

Are you an argument addict?
Whether we love a good argument or we don’t like arguing at all, this type of low-level conflict is a very important part of our day-to-day learning. When next you find yourself in an argument, take a step back and take a look at what’s in play for you. 1. There may be an emotional trigger that causes us to jump to our own defence. If so, take a look at the trigger. You’ll often find it has nothing to do with the subject but rather the presentation. ‘You always take my cup’ may have less to do with taking a cup than the sting of ‘you always’!

Follow your Bliss: 10 steps to discovering your life purpose
‘Follow your bliss. Or you may get to the top of the ladder, only to find that it’s against the wrong wall.’ – Joseph Campbell There is at least one thing that you have spent your whole life getting ready to do. Sometimes it’s something no one else could do. But usually it’s something millions of people do every day, but you love doing it anyway. Sometimes you know what it is but you don’t know how to make it happen, you don’t know how to turn a passion into a job, or you’d just feel guilty doing something that makes you feel that good and calling it a ‘job’.

Criticism: Make like a Duck
How do you handle criticism? Does it stab you in the heart and make you crazy or do you just let it roll off your back without giving it a second thought? The most valuable approach might be to do a bit of both; to learn as much from it as we can and then, like water off a duck’s back, to let it go. Firstly, we must understand that criticism is usually as much about the other person as it is about us, and that criticism is a valuable way of pinpointing the lessons we need to learn about ourselves and others.

A FeelGood Meditation so quick you can do it in a queue at the supermarket. (Warning: people may think you're auditioning for a coffee advertisement.)
Call it Spiritual Aerobics, call it Soul Toning, call it a Consciousness Workout or Waking to Oneness; this simple 2-minute exercise will clear away the cobwebs and leave you feeling good. You don’t need candles or incense. You don’t need chanting monks or gongs or bells. You can do it at your desk at work, on your way to work, or sitting on the edge of your bed when you wake up in the morning. You can do it with your eyes closed or (useful if you’re reading or driving) open. But, before you start, let’s take a quick look at the meaning of FeelGood.

As we near 7 billion, we need to learn a new way of seeing our species.
As the population of our planet nears 7 billion, we need to take stock of how we got here, and assess the options for reversing a rather alarming trend. Beyond the obvious – that more people are coming into the world than are leaving it – it seems we are proliferating out of control for two rather more fundamental reasons.
