THE most important thing in our life should be "To Purify Our Mind". In this page I will donate my knowledge and time to work with those who are interested in this field. Any questions are welcome.

TO purify our mind, we need to first broaden ourselves with activities of compassion so as to gradually get rid of the self-centered habits.

TO broaden ourselves, we should FIRST FILL OUR MIND with BEAUTIFUL THOUGHTS:
WE should try to make our mind like land, because land has beautiful virtues: when animals shed their excrement on land, land never express anything angrily, because it is not swayed and is completely indifferent; when humans (the rich and famous, sages and saints, or perfect people) walk over land, land feels nothing, again because it is not swayed and is completely indifferent.

Land is not involved or affected by favorable or dangerous situations. Land always welcomes all kinds of situations. It will not take or give up anything, is never confused, is never swayed or attracted by anything, never starts an idea or gives up an idea, peacefully enjoys leisure and endures patiently, and is completely serene. These are some of the beautiful virtues of the land that we step on every day.

IF you have no mind to all living things, then what's the harm of letting these things surround you? We really should learn the spiritual part of land and cultivate the broad and generous mind. This will help to purify our mind.

THE GOOD and THE BAD:

WHEN you face favorable situations or dangerous situations, you can still do everything without the least worry and feel comfortable and able to do anything of your own free will. When you meet somebody, perhaps the person you like the least in your life, a person who looks at you with dirty stares, do you still feel comfortable and free? As a matter of fact, in these kinds of moments, there is a fight between "The state of holiness and wisdom" and "The temptations or evil influence." If we use the worldly words it's like a fight between "The Good" and "The Bad." Becoming The Good or The Bad is all depended on our MIND.
BECAUSE The Good and The Bad are decided by our mind, maybe we can put it this way: The Good and The Bad share our mind. When The Good defeats The Bad, the whole of our mind is Good. When The Bad defeats The Good, the whole of our mind is Bad. From this angle you might have an idea that The Good and The Bad are all from our mind.
THE way our mind treats the situations we face creates the difference between "The state of holiness and wisdom"(The Good) and "The temptations or evil influence"(The Bad). If our mind is contaminated by situations, the mind becomes "The Bad." If our mind is not contaminated by situations, the mind becomes "The Good".

WHY BOTHER:

WHEN adverse circumstances come, just let them do what they like; when adverse circumstances go, just let them do what they like also. When fortunate circumstances come, just let them arise naturally without extra effort; when fortunate circumstances go, again just let them depart naturally without extra effort. Our mind should not be linked up with any circumstances, whether good circumstances or bad circumstances. This will help Purify Our Mind.

WHEN adverse circumstances come, do not feel delighted, when adverse circumstances leave, do not feel disappointed. If the mind feels delighted or disappointed, it shows that we can not control ourselves. In this moment, our mind will have all kinds of entanglements of love, hate, desire, and possession by force. After this step, all kinds of problems will follow and never end.

THE IDEA OF the word "IMPERMANENT":

IF we observe things around us, we will find out that "None is permanent". Things, whether material or non-material, change constantly. Some of the changes are evident, some of them are not. Ever since life began, natural phenomena have been like this. From this point of view, we should understand that things always arise depending on conditions. When the appropriate conditions come together, things arise; when those conditions disperse, things cease.

IF you could understand the point that Nothing is permanent, you will not keep thinking of something in your memory all the time, because it is impermanent and will eventually vanish, no matter how much you keep remembering it. In such a case, why don't we just leave it alone?

IN the Universe, everything that we can see, hear, and think of all arising depending on conditions, meaning that everything is impermanent. The people we love the most or the situations we like the most will all vanish. The people we hate the most or the situations we like the least will all vanish too. Do we still want to persist in our own opinions of things that happen one minute and vanish the next in this world?

THE THOUGHTS in OUR MIND:

THERE are all kinds of thoughts in our mind: evil thoughts, greedy thoughts, and kind thoughts. These thoughts are always confused, tangled, profuse, disordered, and most of the time, we can not control them. Actions, motions, works, and even mistakes all arise from thoughts in our mind. When we put an idea of going to a place in our mind, then action will lead our body to that place. When we start an idea of going to the church, then action will bring us to that church. We will spend our entire fortune doing something because of a little thought in our mind. We will begin to be deeply attached to one thing or act on momentary impulse because of a little thought in our mind. We will offend people by our words because of a little wrong thought in our mind. We might do something offensive or harmful to society's morals because of a little evil thought in our mind.

WE always maneuver for positions or benefits against rivals. We try to cause alienation between friends or relatives by spreading rumors or doing something. Does anybody know why? It is because "What one is thinking of at any given moment is often evil thoughts."

THE Good and The Bad all are from our MIND. We are the masters of the mind and also are the watershed of The Good and The Bad. Mind produces all kinds of thoughts; mind is the origin of events that follow from Good thoughts and Bad thoughts. From this point of view, we all should understand how important it is to purify our mind.

TO DEAL with THOUGHTS:

IF we want to avoid disasters or calamities made by ourselves, we have to stop putting ideas in our head. The moment we stop an idea arising is called "True Awakening".

THERE are all kinds of garbage in our mind. If we want to purify our mind, getting rid of the garbage in our mind might be the first thing we have to do. What is the garbage of mind? Dirty and polluted thoughts, greedy thoughts, hateful thoughts, infatuated thoughts, worried thoughts, suffering thoughts, haughty thoughts, impudent thoughts, envious thoughts, indecent thoughts, heterodox thoughts, dreary thoughts, and hollow thoughts. These can all be called garbage of the mind.
Someone in history said once that one who can govern a battalion of a million soldiers is not a hero: the real hero is that person who can govern his mind. We should understand the meaning of these words.

IF an evil thought arises in our mind, then more evil thoughts like water will come in torrents; nothing can ward them off. These evil thoughts will forever lead us to thinking, speaking, and acting evil. Ever since life began, the habitual temperament of human beings makes us like this. It is doubly difficult to get rid of them.

WHEN we can govern our thoughts, our mind will not be affected by situations. From this, our mind can be free. This is a very hard level to reach, but the first step always is hard.

FOR those who have too many friendly feelings (such as being crazy about women), if they do not control their feelings well, they will follow their thoughts and will sink into the deep sea of feelings. For those who desire wealth and honor greatly, their minds are clouded by material desires, the covetous thoughts will lead them to fame and wealth, and they will be in the bondage of reputation and wealth forever.

ALWAYS keep a watch on thoughts in your mind. Try to realize or know what and where your thoughts are. As a matter of fact, according to the experienced people's idea, "Thoughts always vanish when you watch them." If we could practice like this all the time, the power of our thoughts will decrease over time. This is not a very easy level to reach, but at least we have an idea that there is a way to get rid of thoughts.

LIKE we mentioned, things arise always depending on conditions: when conditions come together or gather together, things arise; when conditions disperse or dispel, things cease. [This is a doubly important notion]. When we understand this notion, we will also understand that everything in the universe is impermanent; from this point of view, it should be easy to get rid of CLINGING, and always persisting in our opinion. Always remember and practice the notion of IMPERMANENCE. This will help to purify our mind a lot.

THE ORIGINAL NATURE OF HUMAN BEING:

WE should live in a world which belongs to our real inner self or original nature of human being. This world is bright and brilliant, where there no dispute, and we are not bothered by material concerns. It is pure and peaceful, enjoying leisure and not sorrowful; but we never try to act in response to this world, we never try to be a friend of our real inner self. The only thing we do day in and day out is to try and climb up socially. This is what the Chinese call "Attending to the superficials and neglecting the essentials".

WHEN our real inner self is led astray by human desires, we all know that desires are bottomless. We all will not be able to do anything of our own free will, and we become the slaves of human desires.

THE power of temptation of human desires is doubly brutal. Some people always try to attain their desires with nefarious tactics. The moment we have a thought like this, the moment we lose the chance to contact our real inner self, we are going to be gone far away from purifying our mind.

OUR mind will not stop producing thoughts because of human desires. Therefore, our real inner self will be clouded by material desires forevermore, and our original nature will be contaminated forevermore also.

WHY does our mind always produce thoughts? Before we talk about this subject, maybe we should understand some evil ingredients in our mind. According to the experienced people's idea, " Being greedy for everything, angry at everything, and not understanding the real truth are the most common evil ingredients in our mind."

THESE evil ingredients influence and poison our mind very strongly. That is the reason why our mind produces thoughts every minute of the day. And like we mentioned, "What one is thinking of at any given moment is often evil thoughts." From this, we should understand that fighting these evil thoughts is the most important thing we are going to do.

TO REDUCE THE THOUGHTS IN OUR MIND:

BESIDES what we have already mentioned, there are other ways to reduce thoughts in our mind. Here we try to introduce some of them. Hopefully this will benefit everybody who is seriously interested in this field.

TRY our level best to understand that all living things in the universe are equal; otherwise, we will have a special mind which always looks at things from a dualistic perspective. For example, making a distinction between the good and the bad. And all the problems will be starting from right here, such as "Always persist our own ideas", "Always argue", "Always hate", "Always fight", …and never stop.

LIKE we mentioned in the beginning, we should try to make our mind like LAND, and be tolerant of other people's mistakes, or wrongdoing or weaknesses. Try to express solicitude for everybody (Friends, enemies, good, and bad) equally. Try not to dispute or discuss in minute detail gaining or losing. Try not to be moved by sad or delighted things. Try not to feel so pleased when people respect or praise us. Try not to hate or abhor when people slight us.

WHEN people show their beautiful virtues (like helping others), we should show our respect and join in their actions, and we should try not to be jealous of other people's beautiful virtues. When we see people facing troubles, we should not gloat over their disaster.

ACCORDING to the experienced people's idea, "The highest wisdom comes from a merciful heart", the merciful heart comes from "Solving people's problems without any conditions and helping people to get peace, calm, and sagacity without any conditions either".
IF we look at things or treat things unequally, from here, all the worry, trouble, and prejudice will be produced almost right away. Thus if we want to purify our mind, we have to learn to look at things or treat things with equality.

SOMEDAY when we realize that all the beings are equal and could be blend or mix together, and become "ONE" in some way, we will understand really what is the "Real Truth".

Fulfilling Your Dreams with the
Seven Spiritual Laws of Success

By Deepak Chopra, M.D.
Deepak Chopra is a bestselling author, educator, and holistic health pioneer who shares his insights in this inspiring article on personal growth.

There are many aspects to success; material wealth is only one component. Moreover, success is a journey, not a destination. Material abundance, in all its expressions, happens to be one of those things that makes the journey more enjoyable. But success also includes good health, energy and enthusiasm for life, fulfilling relationships, creative freedom, emotional and psychological stability, a sense of well-being and peace of mind. Even with the experience of all these things, we will remain unfulfilled unless we nurture the seeds of divinity inside us. In reality, we are divinity in disguise, and the gods and goddesses in embryo that are contained within us seek to be fully materialized. Although I call the laws I'm about to discuss The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success, they could easily be called The Seven Spiritual Laws of Life. This is because they are the same principles that nature uses to create everything in material existence--everything we can see, hear, smell, taste or touch.

Success in life could be defined as the continued expansion of happiness and the progressive realization of worthy goals. Success is the ability to fulfill your desires with effortless ease. And yet success, including the creation of wealth, has always been considered a process that requires hard work, and it is often considered to be at the expense of others. We need a more spiritual approach to success and to affluence, which is the abundant flow of all good things to you. With the knowledge and practice of spiritual law, we put ourselves in harmony with nature and create with carefreeness, joy and love. True success is the experience of the miraculous. It is the unfolding of the divinity within us. It is the perception of divinity wherever we go, in whatever we perceive--in the eyes of a child, in the beauty of a flower, in the flight of a bird. When we begin to experience our life as the miraculous expression of divinity--not occasionally, but all the time--then we will know the true meaning of success.

Now let's go over The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success and see how we can apply them in our lives.

1) The Law of Pure Potentiality
This law is based on the fact that we are, in our essential state, pure consciousness. Pure consciousness is pure potentiality; it is the field of all possibilities and infinite creativity. When you discover your essential nature and know who you really are, in that knowing itself is the ability to fulfill any dream you have, because you are the eternal possibility, the immeasurable potential of all that was, is and will be. This law could also be called the Law of Unity, because underlying the infinite diversity of life is the unity of one all-pervasive spirit. There is no separation between you and this field of energy. One way to access the field is through the daily practice of silence, meditation and non-judgment. Spending time in nature will also give you access to the qualities inherent in the field: infinite creativity, freedom and bliss.

2) The Law of Giving
This law could also be called the Law of Giving and Receiving, because the universe operates through dynamic exchange. The flow of life is nothing other than the harmonious interaction of all the elements and forces that structure the field of existence. Because your body and your mind and the universe are in constant and dynamic change, stopping the circulation of energy is like stopping the flow of blood. Whenever blood stops flowing, it begins to clot, to stagnate. That is why you must give and receive in order to keep wealth and affluence--or anything you want--circulating in your life. If our only intention is to hold on to our money and hoard it--since it's life energy, we will stop its circulation back into our lives as well. In order to keep that energy coming to us, we have to keep the energy circulating. Thus, the more you give, the more you will receive. The best way to put The Law of Giving into operation is to make a decision that any time you come into contact with anyone, you will give them something. It doesn't have to be in the form of material things; it could be a flower, a compliment or a prayer. In fact, the most powerful forms of giving are non-material. The gifts of caring, attention, affection, appreciation and love are some of the most precious gifts you can give, and they don't cost you anything.

3) The Law of Karma (or Cause and Effect)
"Karma" is both action and the consequence of that action; it is cause and effect simultaneously, because every action generates a force of energy that returns to us in kind. There is nothing unfamiliar about the Law of Karma. Everyone had heard the expression, "What you sow is what you reap." Obviously, if we want to create happiness in our lives, we must learn to sow the seeds of happiness. Therefore, karma implies the action of conscious choice-making. Whether you like it or not, everything that is happening at this moment is a result of the choices you've made in the past. Unfortunately, a lot of us make choices unconsciously, and therefore we don't think they are choices--and yet, they are. If you step back for a moment and witness the choices you are making as you make those choices, then in just this act of witnessing, you take the whole process from the unconscious realm into the conscious realm. This procedure of conscious choice-making and witnessing is very empowering.You can use the Law of Karma to create money and affluence, and the flow of all good things to you, any time you want. But first, you must become consciously aware that your future is generated by the choices you are making in every moment of your life. If you do this on a regular basis, then you are making full use of this law. The more you bring your choices into the level of your conscious awareness, the more you will make those choices which are spontaneously correct--both for you and those around you.

4) The Law of Least Effort
This law is based on the fact that nature's intelligence functions with effortless ease and abandoned carefreeness. This is the principle of least action, of no resistance. This is, therefore, the principle of harmony and love. When we learn this lesson from nature, we easily fulfill our desires. In Vedic Science, the age-old philosophy of India, this principle is known as the principle of economy of effort, or "do less and accomplish more." Ultimately, you come to the state where you do nothing and accomplish everything. This means that there is just a faint idea, and then the manifestation of the idea comes about effortlessly. What is commonly called a "miracle" is actually an expression of the Law of Least Effort. Least effort is expended when your actions are motivated by love, because nature is held together by the energy of love. When you seek power and control over other people, you waste energy. When you seek money or power for the sake of the ego, you spend energy chasing the illusion of happiness instead of enjoying happiness in the moment. When your actions are motivated by love, your energy multiplies and accumulates--and the surplus energy you gather and enjoy can be channeled to create anything that you want, including unlimited wealth. There are three components to the Law of Least Effort--three things you can do to put this principle of "do less and accomplish more" into action. The first component is acceptance. Acceptance simply means that you make a commitment: "Today I will accept people, situations, circumstances and events as they occur." This means I will know that this moment is as it should be, because the whole universe is as it should be. The second component is responsibility. This means not blaming anyone or anything for your situation, including yourself. This allows you the ability to have a creative response to the situation as it is now. All problems contain the seeds of opportunity, and this awareness allows you to take the moment and transform it to a better situation or thing. The third component to the Law of Least Effort is defenselessness. This means that you have relinquished the need to convince or persuade others of your point of view. If you relinquish this need you will in that relinquishment gain access to enormous amounts of energy that have been previously wasted.

5) The Law of Intention and Desire
This law is based on the fact that energy and information exist everywhere in nature. A flower, a rainbow, a tree, a human body, when broken down to their essential components are energy and information. The whole universe, in its essential nature, is the movement of energy and information. The only difference between you and a tree is the informational and energy content of your respective bodies. You can consciously change the energy and informational content of your own quantum mechanical body, and therefore influence the energy and informational content of your extended body--your environment, your world--and cause things to manifest in it. The quality of intention on the object of attention will orchestrate an infinity of space-time events to bring about the outcome intended, provided one follows the other spiritual laws of success. Intention lays the groundwork for the effortless, spontaneous, frictionless flow of pure potentiality. The only caution is that you use your intent for the benefit of mankind.

6) The Law of Detachment
This law says that in order to acquire anything in the physical universe, you have to relinquish your attachment to it. This doesn't mean you give up the intention to create your desire. You give up your attachment to the result. This is a very powerful thing to do. The moment you relinquish your attachment to the result, combining one-pointed intention with detachment at the same time, you will have that which you desire. Anything you want can be acquired through detachment, because detachment is based on the unquestioning belief in the power of your true Self. Attachment comes from poverty consciousness, because attachment is always to symbols. Detachment is synonymous with wealth consciousness, because with detachment there is freedom to create. True wealth consciousness is the ability to have anything you want, anytime you want, and with least effort. To be grounded in this experience you have to be grounded in the wisdom of uncertainty. In this uncertainty you will find the freedom to create anything you want.

7) The Law of "Dharma" or Purpose in Life
The seventh spiritual law of success is the Law of Dharma. (Dharma is a Sanskrit word that means "purpose in life.") This law says that we have taken manifestation in physical form to fulfill a purpose. You have a unique talent and a unique way of expressing it. There is something that you can do better than anyone else in the whole world--and for every unique talent and unique expression of that talent, there are also unique needs. When these needs are matched with the creative expression of your talent, that is the spark that creates affluence. Expressing your talents to fulfill needs creates unlimited wealth and abundance. There are three components to the Law of Dharma. The first says that each of us is here to discover our true Self. The second component is to express our unique talents; the expression of that talent takes you into timeless awareness. The third component is service to humanity. When you combine the ability to express your unique talent with service to humanity, then you make full use of the Law of Dharma. The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success are powerful principles that will enable you to attain self-mastery. If you put your attention on these laws and practice the steps outlined above, you will see that you can manifest anything you want--all the affluence, money and success you desire. You will also see that your life becomes more joyful and abundant in every way, for these laws are also the spiritual laws of life that make living worthwhile.

Muhammad (PBUH) - Legacy of a Prophet
(A PBS Documentary)

Article from:
http://www.muhammad.net/

Muhammad (pbuh) was born in Arabia in 570 CE, and when he died at the age of 63, the whole of the Arabian Peninsula had changed from paganism and idol worship to the worship of One God; from tribal quarrels and wars to national solidarity and cohesion; from drunkenness and debauchery to sobriety and piety; from lawlessness and anarchy to disciplined living; from utter moral bankruptcy to the highest standards of moral excellence. Human history has never known such a complete transformation of a people or a place before or since.

The Encyclopedia Britannica calls him "the most successful of all religious personalities of the world."

Bernard Shaw said, "if Muhammad (pbuh) were alive today, he would succeed in solving all those problems which threaten to destroy human civilization in our times."

Thomas Carlysle was amazed as to how one man, single-handedly, could weld warring tribes and wandering Bedouins into a most powerful and civilized nation in less than two decades.

Napoleon and Gandhi never tired of dreaming of a society along the lines established by this man in Arabia fourteen centuries ago.

Indeed no other human being ever accomplished so much, in such diverse fields of human thought and behavior, in so limited a space of time, as did Muhammad (pbuh). He was a religious teacher, a social reformer, a moral guide, a political thinker, a military genius, an administrative colossus, a faithful friend, a wonderful companion, a devoted husband, a loving father—all in one. No other man in history ever excelled or equaled him in any of these difficult departments of life.

The world has had its share of great personalities. But these were one-sided figures who distinguished themselves in but one or two fields, such as religious thought or military leadership. None of the other great leaders of the world ever combined within himself so many different qualities to such an amazing level of perfection as did Muhammad (pbuh). The lives and teachings of other great personalities of the world are shrouded in the mist of time.

There is so much speculation about the time and the place of their birth, the mode and style of their life, the nature and detail of their teachings and the degree and measure of their success or failure that it is impossible for humanity today to reconstruct accurately and precisely the lives and teachings of those men. Not so this man Muhammad (pbuh). Not only was he born in the fullest blaze of recorded history, but every detail of his private and public life, of his actions and utterances, has been accurately documented and faithfully preserved to our day. The authenticity of the information so preserved is vouched for not only by faithful followers but also by unbiased critics and open-minded scholars.

At the level of ideas there is no system of thought and belief—secular or religious, social or political — which could surpass or equal ISLAM — the system which Muhammad (pbuh) propounded. In a fast-changing world, while other systems have undergone profound transformations, Islam alone has remained above all change and mutation, and retained its original form for the past 1400 years. What is more, the positive changes that are taking place in the world of human thought and behavior truly and consistently reflect the healthy influence of Islam in these areas. It is not given to the best of thinkers to put their ideas completely into practice, and to see the seeds of their labors grow and bear fruit in their own lifetime.

Except of course, Muhammad (pbuh), who not only preached the most wonderful ideas but also successfully translated each one of them into practice. At the time of his death his teachings were not mere precepts and ideas straining for fulfillment. They had become the very core of the life of tens of thousands of perfectly trained individuals. At what other time or place and in relation to what other political, social, religious system, philosophy or ideology—did the world ever witness such a perfectly amazing phenomenon? Except of course, ISLAM, which was established as a complete way of life by Muhammad (pbuh)himself. History bears testimony to this fact and the greatest skeptics have no option but to concede this point.

In spite of the phenomenal success which crowned his efforts, he did not for a moment claim to be God or God's incarnation or Son — but only a human being who was chosen and ordained by the Creator to be a teacher of truth to mankind and a complete model and pattern for their actions. He was a man with a noble and exalted mission — and his unique mission was to unite humanity in the worship of the One and only God and to teach them the way to honest and upright living in accordance with the laws and commands of God. He always described himself as a Messenger and servant of God, as indeed every single action and movement of his proclaimed him to be...

HOME - The Movie

Home is a 2009 documentary by Yann Arthus-Bertrand.

The film is almost entirely composed of aerial shots of various places on Earth. It shows the diversity of life on Earth and how humanity is threatening the ecological balance of the planet. The movie was released simultaneously on June 5, 2009 in cinemas across the globe, on DVD, Blu-ray, television, and on YouTube, opening in 181 countries.

The film was financed by PPR, a French multinational holding company specializing in retail shops and luxury brands, as part of their PR strategy.

The documentary chronicles the present day state of the Earth, its climate and how we as the dominant species have long-term repercussions on its future. A theme expressed throughout the documentary is that of linkage—how all organisms and the Earth are linked in a "delicate but crucial" natural balance with each other, and how no organism can be self-sufficient.

The first 15 minutes include footage of the beginning of the natural world, starting with single-celled algae developing at the edges of volcanic springs. By showing algae's essential role in the evolution of photosynthesis, it also explores the innumerable species of plants which all have their origins in this one-celled life form.

In the rest of the first hour of the film, the documentary takes on a more human-oriented focus, showing the agricultural revolution and its impacts, before moving on to talk about the harnessing of oil, leading to fire, industry, cities and inequality gaps like never before. It portrays the current predicament regarding cattle ranches, deforestation, food and water shortages, the use of non-renewable "fossil water", the over-quarrying crisis and the shortage of energy, namely electricity.

Cities such as New York City, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Shenzhen, Mumbai, Tokyo and Dubai are used as examples of the mismanagement and wastage of energy, water and food. The recession of marshlands and glaciers are shown in vast aerial shots of Antarctica, The North Pole and Africa, while mass emigration and refugee counts are shown currently and forecast in the event that these events remains unchanged.

It is at this point that the film begins to focus on global warming and the carbon crisis. Home shows how melting glaciers, rising sea levels and changing weather patterns are ravaging the people who have least to do with climate change, but also how it soon will affect rich populous areas.

Here, about three minutes of film is given to displaying harsh facts in large white text on a black background followed by a video representation of the fact. This is followed by a positive conclusion. The documentary claims to show the "awful truths" regarding our impact on the Earth, but also what we are now doing to combat and reverse it: including renewable energy, the creation of more and more national parks, international co-operation between various nations on environmental issues and the extra education and reform being had across the globe in response to the current problems facing the earth.

Dealing with Difficult People Versus Them Dealing with You!

- Bill Crawford Ph.D.

Do difficult people stress you out so much that you feel like your hair is standing on end! We all have difficult people we have to deal with in life. They may be at home, at work, relatives, or neighbours. Mostly we have no choice in removing them out of our life - getting rid of them is often out of our control.

Changing them is also not an option - we don't have that kind of power. Realistically our choices are that we remove ourselves, change the way we respond to them, or just suffer. This lens has tips and advice as how to handle those difficult people, and information so that we can understand them better.

How to Deal with Complainers
The key to successfully coping with a complainer is to break their cycle of complaining and move them towards a problem solving perspective. Complainers operate quiet happily in the cycle of blaming others, active passively and bemoaning their powerlessness.

Here are some strategies to break the complaining cycle.

This step is probably what you least feel like doing. And listening attentively to a complaining person can be very demanding. It is however an important step. Listening is a very powerful tool.

It is particularly important for the complaining person. First of all it gives the complainer the opportunity to release some frustration, fear or anger. Without being able to let off steam, a complainer is unable to move towards problem solving.

Listening also can lessen the complainer's sense of being dismissed. Another advantage is that through listening you can gather information to progress to the next stage.

Acknowledge

By acknowledging what the complainer has said, you communicate that you have understood, that you know how they feel, and that you are taking them seriously. The way to communicate this is to paraphrase back what you think the main points were and finish with acknowledging how you think the complainer must be feeling.

Interrupt if Necessary

You may need to interrupt as often complainers don't stop to take a breath. As soon as you understand what they are complaining about, stop them as politely and firmly as you can.

Use Limiting Responses

Complainers tend to use extreme words such as: 'never' and 'always'. The goal with a complainer is to get them to be specific about times, places or facts.

Don't Agree

Acknowledging the Issues can be profitable because it demonstrates understanding and attention. Agreement however can indicate responsibility for the problem.

The goal when dealing with a complainer is twofold. Ideally you want to divert that energy out into complaining into problem solving for solutions to the complaints. If that proves too difficult then the next strategy is to firmly,but kindly get them to leave.

A New Approach to Dealing with Stress
- Bill Crawford Ph.D.

Despite its negative connotation, stress itself is both good and bad. Basically, stress is nothing more than the body's response to a change in circumstances. Something in the external environment has changed and we need to react to it.

For instance, the starting gun is fired and the runners take off - here stress is healthy and beneficial in that the body reacts to the challenge of the race and it is all systems running full throttle to win. Another example, you are running a few minutes behind but should still be able to make the important meeting on time.

Suddenly the traffic on the freeway comes to a halt. You are trapped in the middle lane and between exits. Action is required and your body again energizes all systems to charge ahead. Unfortunately, there is nothing that you can do and the stress of being energized for action, but being forced to sit helplessly in your car, results in agony and a wearing down of your body.

Mental Attitude is Key to Dealing With Stress
Fortunately, we are not fully at the mercy of bad stress. True, we cannot control all of the negative stress factors in our lives, but the way we mentally approach stressful situations can enable us to either avoid bad stress in many situations or, at least, reduce the effects of bad stress. Our mental outlook and the way we approach stressful situations can give us a great deal of control over the negative effect of stress in our lives.

Consider this example: a guy is standing alone at a party and admiring a gorgeous girl across the room. Suddenly, the girl turns smiles and begins walking toward the guy. The stress level of the fellow rises as body prepares for action. Three choices of action are open to him:

He can turn and run from the building. This is good, in that the running will enable him to quickly burn off the energy that suddenly built up in his body, and it will also remove him from a potentially painful emotional experience. Rewriting the old saying “it is better not to have loved than to have loved and lost”. Life may be dull for this fellow, but it is probably not stressful.

A second option would be for the fellow to start questioning why such a beautiful girl would want him. Going a step further, he convinces himself that he is not good looking enough, he is too dull for this woman, he is going to make stupid comments and lose her. Just like the car in the example above which is trapped in a traffic jam with no way out and no way to release the pent up energy, this fellow is trapped in a traffic jam of his own fears with no way out and no way to release his pent up energy.

Stupid as this scenario seems, it is common enough so that comedians like Ray Romano (Ray Barone in “Everybody Loves Raymond”) and Jason Alexander (George Costanza in “Seinfeld”) have made fortunes playing this type of character on TV.

3 The third option is for the fellow to be overjoyed at his great fortune. Here he was, standing on the sidelines of the party trying to locate a woman to approach and trying to work up the courage to approach her, when, suddenly, the perfect woman smiles and comes to him. Taking advantage of the new rush of energy and excitement, he smiles back and begins walking toward her eagerly anticipating where this might lead. His stress is put to good use and propels him on to bigger and better things.

In all three cases above, the situation was the same but the stress was negative in only one of them. In the other two cases the stress was either neutralized (example 1) or put to good use (example 3). The determining factor in each example was the mental approach to the situation.

The simplest and best way to deal with stress is to have the right mental attitude. Understand first that we have very little control over our bodies becoming stressed or over our feelings and emotions. These are pretty much automatic reactions by our bodies and we have no control over them. However, how we deal with the situation immediately following our bodies’ initial automatic reaction is largely under our control.

In the case of the car stuck in traffic, the driver can either sit, in the car, allow his anger to build and worry about being late or, simply accept the fact that he is going to be late and calmly wait for the traffic to begin moving again. Just because worry and anger were his body’s initial, and normal, reaction to the traffic jam doesn’t mean that he has to cling to them and stoke them. Hanging on to these emotions converts an annoying situation with minor stress into a crisis with major negative stress.

Going a step further, this individual could use the time stuck in traffic to analyze the situation and see that the real problem here is not the traffic jam but his habit of leaving late which means that any type of obstruction or unanticipated event will result in the commute being interrupted and his being late for work. Deciding to re-arrange his schedule and leave earlier each day is a proactive response to the traffic jam that will greatly reduce the chances of encountering stressful delays in the future.

While not the only way to deal with stress, a proper mental attitude can be a giant step forward in managing and dealing with stress in your life.

> Life is Like a Cup of Coffee

2010-04-17T18:11:00.000+08:00

.

Life is Like a Cup of Coffee

A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor. Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life.

Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and an assortment of cups - porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain looking, some expensive, some exquisite - telling them to help themselves to the coffee.

When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said: "If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups have been taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress.

Be assured that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. In most cases it is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink. What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went for the best cups... And then you began eyeing each other's cups.

Now consider this: Life is the coffee; the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain Life, and the type of cup we have does not define, nor change the quality of life we live.

Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee. Savor the coffee, not the cups! The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything. Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly.

As you think, So shall you be
(How to Get What You Really, Really, Really, Really, Want)
by Wayne Dyer

As in a dream, anything at all is possible. So shall you think, so shall it be. It is a simple matter to think things into existence. Speaking of matter, the act of thinking can literally create matter! Thinking is only an extension of what you perceive to be reality, and reality is simply created by thoughts. Understand that it is thought that gives birth to creations. Creations are nothing more than physical evidence manifested in the physical realm. There are other realms that appear as dreams. Know that they truly exist and are just as real as the reality you are manifesting now.

If it is thought that creates realities, then you must understand that anything at all is possible, even flying! We tell you that flying is indeed possible, but how many of you will be able to do it? As any and all things are possible, each moment of manifestation will have its moment in time. Your current dimensional time does not always recognize flying as possible, therefore it will be extremely difficult to conjure up the necessary thought enabling you to do it.

The twenty-first century will usher in a new age. Already, things have begun to accelerate. Many of you flail through your days with never enough time to get everything done. If you are old enough, you will perhaps remember when time seemed to go slower. You are absolutely correct in your memories of time. Those were certainly the good old days, and time was slower!

Time is converging now. It is speeding up. We use your word time, but know there is no such thing. It is frequency that is vibrating at a faster rate, causing the feeling that there is much to do and never enough time. Because of this rapid frequency factor, things will start to happen and all that you thought was impossible will become known and experienced. In the years after the new millennium, there will be a remarkable growth and acceleration of many on Earth. There will be those that will be activated, thus sparking the rest of humanity with wisdom and knowledge that will help to evolve the species on Earth to new levels.

CREATING YOUR NEW REALITY

We must tell you there is much excitement and even fear concerning the year 2000. There have been countless predictions throughout the ages. Many of those from the past and many of you now see it as an eventful marker of all time. We tell you there have been many markers as there are many paths of reality. Creation is indeed complex. A psychic may tune into only one reality, when there are actually many realities happening at once. Choose your reality, choose your path, and that will be your destiny.

We must warn you in advance. Much of what you believe will certainly become your reality. Understand that you create not only individually, but collectively as well. It is important to know this because there are many that believe the new millennium will bring destruction or it will be the end of life, as you know it.

Understand that you are connected, one to another, as we all are. Individual thoughts become the prevailing mass thought. As thought patterns group together, they create mass thought, which creates reality. As many of you think, so shall it happen, so shall you do, and so shall you become. Even if you are not aware that you are connected in this way, know that your thoughts become as one. Mass thought patterns can be good or they can be bad. These collective thought patterns can benefit an entire culture or they can send it down the road of destruction. As people most naturally mass together, know that whatever the prevailing thoughts, those things shall come to pass. Think on this as the New Year of 2000 spreads before you.

There is quite an assortment of people scattered and clustered around the world. Understand this clustering is not by accident, nor is it haphazard. There are reasons for everything. There are many and various kinds of people grouped according to thought patterns and distributed throughout the world in all kinds of places. Notice the differences within cultural groups or in countries, and even communities. These differences are the reason why there has always been such turmoil on planet Earth. Frequencies penetrate and express differently throughout the world taking the form of various kinds of people. If this is not clear, we mean that expression in any physical form, first begins as frequency. People that express at the same or similar frequencies form physical cultural clusters. This is how we see life taking place upon Earth in the form of cultural clusters.

Know that there is much power in these clusterings. Individually, thoughts unite to create the prevailing reality. Religion is a good example of cultural clustering, as there are entire countries that are based on concepts of religion. We are not naming any countries specifically at this time, but certain religions do influence mass thought patterns. These thought patterns create the reality, which is expected. Even if you profess no religious affiliation, know it is possible that you have been influenced or shaped by the culture you live in.

FINDING YOUR ANSWERS

If you have managed to stay truly independent in your thought system without allowing yourself to submerge with mass consciousness, then you may indeed survive the future intact. This is possible, and is based solely on you and how much you are willing to trust and follow your own heart. We will lend our wisdom, but it is up to you to take what you will from various resources and decide for yourself. We do not bring another religion. What we hope to offer is total in-Lightenment. Not only will you be in Light, but you will gain new insight as we give you important information. The blinders will be removed and you will participate with a new vigor in all that you do.

Of course, there will always be those frustrating and dark moments, but overall, as your spiritual comprehension expands and you begin to realize all that you are, your life will continue to grow in richness. You will develop an awareness of so much more as you pull the Light into yourself and continue to question that which surrounds you. As you question and reach for the answers, they will be given to you. Sometimes the answers will come to you in the quietness of your soul, or in the heat of the moment, or deep within your heart. Sometimes you will search and ponder and even cry out to a God that seems so far away. Know that nothing goes unheard, but your voice reverberates unto the edges of time, gathering force and coming back to you always. You will have your answers. Open a book, listen as someone speaks, turn on the television, contemplate the solitude or the setting sun, and there when you least expect it, will be your answer.

We tell you there is nothing we say that has not been said before. We only come as a reminder. We tell you that which you have heard over and over again in many different ways and in many different places. Perhaps in the same lifetime you have even heard the same message. Spiritual matters can be complex. In order to receive the instruction into your body and mind it is often necessary to repeat over and over again that which you already know in your spirit.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR TRUE POWER

Religion offers hope, perhaps with a prize or reward in the end. Again, what we offer you is total in-Lightenment. Not only will you be in Light, but you will also gain new in-sight as we give you important information. You will see once again, as the blinders are removed and you will participate with a new vigor in all that you do. The new year for you will not be one of destruction, but will be filled with hope. Of course, there will always be the dark moments, but overall, as your spiritual comprehension expands, you will evolve and become a higher tuned being. Understand that the new millennium can be a new beginning for you if you want it to be. Know, also, that if you are not careful, you can get caught up in the mass consciousness and end up on the road of misery and destruction.

Your thoughts are like your heartbeat or your breath. They do have a life of their own. They take you over and often without your conscious consent. Things happen and you have no idea why. We suggest to you that you start listening to your own words. What are you telling yourself over and over? What do you say to others? Listen to your thoughts and know that you are forming your own reality. Understand, please, that each of you are a world unto yourselves.

Your world around you is your creation. It is a reflection of your thoughts. If you are not a trusting person, then you will see others as not being trustworthy. If you hold yourself apart from others, then you will wonder why people are not warm and friendly towards you. If you believe there is an Armageddon in your future, then there will most certainly be. Your world will be as you believe it to be, although you will not always consciously understand how this is so.

You have the power to adjust your aura. Once again, by believing it to be so, you will be able to do it. Your aura is an extension of you. Think of it as part of your energy that floats around you, such as an electromagnetic field. It radiates to that which is inside of you. Know that by your thoughts you have the capacity to change it. As you think you are, you will be, thus your aura will change not only according to your emotions and feelings, but with your wishes and suggestions as well.

An aura that shimmers as Gold is protective. It is impenetrable. As Light shines Gold, as in the Sun, so shall you shine Gold. Think it and it will be done. While we tell you that a Gold aura will protect you from all spiritual and physical assaults, we also want you to understand that part of the power of a Gold aura lies in the belief that you are indeed strong and invincible. Your belief is what makes it so.

To realize your own power is certainly a basic concept to understand, although many believe that true power dwells not within, but outside of themselves. In believing this, they are seriously limiting all that they can be. If you wait for a power beyond to put things into action, then there may be no action, or there may be wrong action. Understand that you are the one that contains the power. It is you that controls the circumstances and events of your life, although it can often seem as if it is life that controls you. Have you not floundered and flailed at times, looking outside of yourself to a God for help? Know that you are God! God dwells within you, and is at the highest level of your spirit.

REMEMBERING WHO YOU ARE

If you have the power, then why do things seem to run amuck so much of the time? It is here that we bring up the subject of karma, as you may have thought of that yourself. As we have said before, creation is indeed complex. You understand only in the smallest way what this word karma means. Your karma word encompasses so much more than you can imagine. You apply this concept in most cases to a very narrow and limited view of things, as it is difficult to see the whole. You may think you see, but your perception does not always include all aspects of creation.

You are much bigger and more powerful than you know. You are Spirit. Your spirit is not small, nor is it simply encased in one body in this time and reality. We have told you that your spirit goes on and on into endless eternity. Please, listen carefully here. You act and react to all things in all times and places. You must look beyond your experiences here and realize that what you do may affect yourself in other places. You exist here, you exist in the past, and you exist in the future. There is no such thing as past lives. Know that you experience yourself at all levels and in all places. What you do in your so called past affects what you do here. What you do here affects what you do there.

You exist in the future as well, and even beyond the future where it is that you are God. We are going beyond simple and basic concepts at this point. What we tell you can often be difficult to bring into language. Precise and accurate words do not exist, even to describe much of what we have to tell you. It takes many words, linked together to form patterns, images and ideas. In the higher realms, information and knowledge is not gained through the reading of words. It is absorbed through the spirit, so to speak. We do our best to give you a clear and accurate picture. Still, our words are only words. Hopefully, they will serve the purpose of presenting information to you. It is our hope that they will jog your spirit memory. We can tell you many things, but it is you that will ultimately put the pieces together and begin to remember.

HEALING YOURSELF

Much of what you have gone through as a young one has led to your current suffering. We would like to tell you there is a way to console and help that which you have been and still are. Not only can you reach back into the past, but you can reach forward into the future. Think about this, as we tell you it is here that we ourselves exist in your future. Are we not coming back through time to help you now?

Go back in time and help yourself. Go back to an early point, perhaps a place where you believe there was some kind of hurt or injustice done to you. Please, know that you will not remember all those places where you encountered difficulty and suffering. In fact, it is most likely that you will not remember most of what has happened to you. For now, simply pick a point where you do remember. How has this incident affected you in your current life? Has your behavior been altered by it?

If you have anger inside of you, there is a reason why. Much that shapes and forms you, and even deeply affects you, is because of what you have encountered in the Earthly realm. Go back to yourself at a younger time. Look at what you see. Sometimes you may not remember the incident, the actions, or the words spoken, but you will remember the feelings. You still have those feelings encased in your heart. You are still feeling the pain. You hold onto it and have allowed it to affect, build and shape you. If you lash out at people in anger, you are simply reacting to the hurt that people instilled in you a long time ago.

Has your heart been cast in stone, never to hurt again because you yourself have been so severely hurt? There is no psychiatrist, counselor or religious leader on Earth that can help you, like you can help yourself. It is really so simple that we are quite amazed that most of humanity does not understand how to help themselves. This has happened because of believing in a God that lives outside of you. It is also because of beliefs in religious books that limit your understanding to know your own true power. Simply stated, it is a lack of understanding of who you are and your true possibilities.

Reach back in time, as we are now reaching back in time to you. Reach back in time to your suffering self. See that person clearly. Know that it is you that still suffers as that person continues to exist and experience the pain. You can help now. Go to that hurting child, or that hurting adult. Go to wherever you must go, but go. Speak to yourself at that point in time. You do not have to speak out loud. Thoughts will transmit to that time. Offer love, understanding, and words of wisdom and guidance to that which you are in the past. You may even console yourself by cupping your face with your hand and patting. Gently rub your face and your head, and even hug yourself. You might try this technique of caring for yourself at those times when you feel especially alone and need consolation. Please, do not be surprised at the feelings you may experience. This is good and part of the healing.

As you reach back into time to help a younger or past self deal with the pain and injustices, you indeed begin to heal yourself here and in the future. At this point, we tell you that you have learned a lot in your Earthly journey. As we have come to help you, you can also help by reaching back. As for your present life, it is up to you. You can take yourself down the road of destruction, or you can choose a path that will lead you into a brighter future. The choice is yours.

Inspiration : Your Ultimate Calling
by Wayne Dyer - Book Review

"Inspiration : Your Ultimate Calling" is a book that attempts to look inward rather than looking outside of the self for encouragement or inspiration. Best selling author Wayne Dyer encourages readers to ignore the ego based, goal oriented ways of living and to seek the nonphysical self.

The major focus of the book teaches that motivation is the struggle towards a set goal, while inspiration comes from within and uses an infinite power to bring abundance or peace towards us. So rather than pleasing the ego by forever running after goals, we should let the goals flow naturally towards us by looking inward, and remaining content with our current life (which is really all we ever have; the now).

"We are already connected to everything that we think is missing from our life. Below and above the ranges that our eyes and ears perceive, the entire activity of creation remains invisible and inaccessible.. but when we shift from sensory searching to trusting what we know, we discover the folly of chasing after anything in order to feel inspired." Wayne Dyer Quote from the book

For some, this book by Wayne Dyer may be too far down the path of new age spirituality, but for others it will resonate with a truth that is right for them. As Dyer is getting older he seems to be publishing works that are increasingly more spiritual and inward looking, as opposed to his earlier self help, go get 'em type books. For those that have read any previous books by the author, "Inspiration" will be an enjoyable read.

It sometimes becomes too biographical and personal, but this shouldn't bother fans of Dr. Wayne W. Dyer.

Inspiration : Your Ultimate Calling Book Quotes

"There's a voice in the Universe entreating us to remember our purpose, our reason for being here now in this world of impermanence. The voice whispers, shouts, and sings to us that this experience - of being in form in space and time - has meaning. That voice belongs to inspiration, which is within each and every one of us." Wayne Dyer
"We have a built in yearning to seek our inspired self and feel wholeness, a kind of inexplicable sense that patiently demands recognition and action." Wayne Dyer
"Before merging into form, we were a part of God, with all the inherent qualities of a Creator who sends forth abundance, creativity, love, peace, joy, and wellbeing." Wayne Dyer
"It's important to understand that any of the traditional measures of success, such as job promotions, wealth, public acclaim, expensive clothing, a commanding presence, verbal adeptness, a voluminous vocabulary, a charismatic appearance, fame, and so forth don't necessarily mean high marks as an inspirational person." Wayne Dyer

Quotes by:
Carl Gustav Yung

An understanding heart is everything in a teacher, and cannot be esteemed highly enough. One looks back with appreciation to the brilliant teachers, but with gratitude to those who touched our human feeling. The curriculum is so much necessary raw material, but warmth is the vital element for the growing plant and for the soul of the child.
Every form of addiction is bad, no matter whether the narcotic be alcohol, morphine or idealism.
Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to a better understanding of ourselves.
Nobody, as long as he moves about among the chaotic currents of life, is without trouble.
Nothing has a stronger influence psychologically on their environment and especially on their children than the unlived life of the parent.
The creation of something new is not accomplished by the intellect but by the play instinct acting from inner necessity. The creative mind plays with the objects it loves.
The healthy man does not torture others - generally it is the tortured who turn into torturers.
The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed.
The shoe that fits one person pinches another; there is no recipe for living that suits all cases.
We cannot change anything unless we accept it. Condemnation does not liberate, it oppresses.
As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light in the darkness of mere being.
The least of things with a meaning is worth more in life than the greatest of things without it.
Where love rules, there is no will to power, and where power predominates, love is lacking. The one is the shadow of the other.
If one does not understand a person, one tends to regard him as a fool.
Observance of customs and laws can very easily be a cloak for a lie so subtle that our fellow human beings are unable to detect it. It may help us to escape all criticism, we may even be able to deceive ourselves in the belief of our obvious righteousness. But deep down, below the surface of the average man's conscience, he hears a voice whispering, "There is something not right," no matter how much his rightness is supported by public opinion or by the moral code.
The teacher pretended that algebra was a perfectly natural affair, to be taken for granted, whereas I didn't even know what numbers were. Mathematics classes became sheer terror and torture to me. I was so intimidated by my incomprehension that I did not dare to ask any questions.
It all depends on how we look at things, and not on how they are themselves.
In studying the history of the human mind one is impressed again and again by the fact that the growth of the mind is the widening of the range of consciousness, and that each step forward has been a most painful and laborious achievement. One could almost say that nothing is more hateful to man than to give up even a particle of his unconsciousness. Ask those who have tried to introduce a new idea!
All the works of man have their origin in creative fantasy. What right have we then to depreciate imagination.
Sometimes, indeed, there is such a discrepancy between the genius and his human qualities that one has to ask oneself whether a little less talent might not have been better.
There can be no transforming of darkness into light and of apathy into movement without emotion.
Creative powers can just as easily turn out to be destructive. It rests solely with the moral personality whether they apply themselves to good things or to bad. And if this is lacking, no teacher can supply it or take its place
I could not say I believe. I know! I have had the experience of being gripped by something that is stronger than myself, something that people call God.
The pendulum of the mind alternates between sense and nonsense, not between right and wrong.
As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light of meaning in the darkness of mere being.
Religion is a defense against the experience of God.
The word "happiness" would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.
Knowledge rests not upon truth alone, but upon error also.
Nobody, as long as he moves about among the chaotic currents of life, is without trouble.
Great talents are the most lovely and often the most dangerous fruits on the tree of humanity. They hang upon the most slender twigs that are easily snapped off.
The greatest and most important problems of life are all fundamentally insoluble. They can never be solved but only outgrown.
I have always been impressed by the fact that there are a surprising number of individuals who never use their minds if they can avoid it, and an equal number who do use their minds, but in an amazingly stupid way.
To me dreams are part of nature, which harbors no intention to deceive but expresses something as best it can.
As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of existence is to kindle a light in the darkness of being.
Show me a sane man, and I will cure him for you.
The dream is the small hidden door in the deepest and most intimate sanctum of the soul, which opens to that primeval cosmic night that was soul long before there was conscious ego and will be soul far beyond what a conscious ego could ever reach.

The Truth of Life in This World
- Harun Yahya

Our universe is perfectly orderly. Countless billions of stars and galaxies move in their separate orbits yet in total harmony. Galaxies consisting of almost 300 billion stars flow through each other and, to everyone's astonishment, during this gigantic transition no collisions occur. Such order cannot be attributed to coincidence. What is more, the velocities of objects in the universe are beyond the limits of man's imagination.

The physical dimensions of outer space are enormous when compared to the measurements we employ on earth. Stars and planets, with masses of billions or trillions of tons, and galaxies, with sizes that can only be grasped with the help of mathematical formulae, all whirl along their particular paths in space at incredible velocities.

For instance, the earth rotates about its axis so that points on its surface move at an average velocity of about 1,670 km an hour. The mean linear velocity of the earth in its orbit around the sun is 108,000 km an hour. These figures, however, only relate to the earth. We encounter tremendously larger figures when we examine dimensions beyond the solar system.

In the universe, as systems increase in size, velocities also increase. The solar system revolves around the centre of the galaxy at 720,000 km an hour. The velocity of the Milky Way itself, comprising some 200 billion stars, is 950,000 km an hour. This continual movement is inconceivable. The earth, together with the solar system, each year moves 500 million kilometres away from its location of the previous year.

There is an incredible equilibrium within all this dynamic movement and it reveals that life on earth is based on a very delicate balance. Very slight, even millimetric variations in the orbit of heavenly bodies could result in very serious consequences. Some could be so detrimental that life on earth would become impossible. In such systems in which there is both great equilibrium and tremendous velocities, gigantic accidents may happen at any time.

However, the fact that we lead our lives in an ordinary way on this planet makes us forget about the dangers existing in the universe at large. The present order of the universe with the almost negligible number of collisions of which we know, simply makes us think that a perfect, stable and secure environment surrounds us.

The Miracle Of Human Creation
by Harun Yahya

The human body is the most complicated machine in the world. We see with it, hear with it, breathe with it, walk and run with it, and sense pleasure with it. Its bones, muscles, arteries, veins and internal organs are organized with marvelous design, and when we examine this design in detail we find even more amazing facts. Every part of the body, though each may seem to be so different from another, is made up of the same material: cells.

Cells, each of which is one thousandth of a millimeter, are the structural units that form our body and everything in it. Some of these cells unite to form bones, others to form nerves, the liver, the inner layer of the stomach, the skin or the cornea of the eyeball. Each has the size and shape that exactly meet the requirement of that part of the body.

How and when did cells, which have such varied functions, come into being?

The answer to this question will take us into a process whose every moment is filled with mystery. All the approximately 100 trillion cells that make up your body today came from the division of one single cell. That single cell which had the same structure as all the cells in your body now, came from the union of your mother's egg cell and your father's sperm cell.

In the Qur'an, God sometimes refers to the wonders of the earth and the sky, and sometimes to the mysteries of the creation of living things as various signs of His existence. One of the most important of these signs is His wondrous creation of human beings.

In many verses, as a lesson to human beings, God advises them to turn and look at their own creation. He explains in detail how human beings come to be and what stages they pass through. In Sura 56, He tells of human creation:

"We created you, so why do you not confirm the truth? Have you thought about the sperm that you ejaculate? Is it you who create it or are We the Creator?"
(Qur'an, 56: 57-59)

The essence of a human being composed of 60-70 kilos of flesh and a mass of bones was originally contained in a drop of fluid. It is certainly a wonder that an intelligent, feeling human being with the faculties of speech and hearing and with a remarkably complex physical structure could come into existence from a drop of fluid. This development was certainly not the result of a random process or the operation of chance, but rather of a conscious process of Creation.

This book will explain in detail a wonder that is experienced continually, by every person on the face of the earth the wonder of human creation. It must be made clear that what is dealt with in this book is only a part of the intricacies of human creation; but even what is related in this book reveals once again the eternal power of the Creator, His limitless knowledge and intelligence that surround and embrace the whole universe. And it will remind human beings that Almighty God is "the Best of Creators".

"We created man from the purest kind of clay; then made him a drop in a secure receptacle; then formed the drop into a clot and formed the clot into a lump and formed the lump into bones and clothed the bones in flesh; and then brought him into being as another creature. Blessed be God, the Best of Creators!"
(Qur'an, 23: 12-14)

Living in Inspiration
- Dr. Wayne Dyer

Inspirational Sayings and Quotes are Powerful Personal Development Tools

Inspirational sayings and quotes have enormous power. The key to their power, however, lies not in the sayings themselves, but in their ability to inspire and motivate you to take action.

Personal development and self improvement gurus capitalize on this as one of their keys to success. They have put inspirational sayings, motivational quotes, and famous quotations into action thousands of times.

They have been able to use these tools and associated techniques to propel themselves and some of their students to higher levels of achievement than most people believe possible.

Did you catch the key points in my statements above? Well, if not, here they are…

Personal development gurus have used inspirational materials (sayings, quotes, and the like) to inspire and motivate both themselves and their students.
Only some of their students have reached higher levels of achievement.
Most people believe that higher levels of achievement are not possible.
And… last but not least… the power of inspirational sayings lies in YOU! It lies in your ability to use them to inspire you, to motivate you, to get yourself to take action that leads to results.

Those last two points are the most important. Why?

They teach us two important things. One, that most people do not believe that great things are possible, despite evidence to the contrary all around them. And two, that inspirational sayings, motivational quotes, and the like are powerless without you.

You hold the key. You and you alone can choose to envision your outcome and can choose to take action.

Start with the articles below on inspiration, motivation, and taking action. Inspire yourself, dream your dream, motivate yourself, decide to live your dream, and then... take action!

How to Be a No-Limit Person (Video)
- Wayne Dyer

Before Dr. Wayne Dyer shifted the focus of his work to spiritual matters, he’d already won worldwide acclaim as a brilliant speaker and gifted motivator.

His early books and audio programs were renowned for their refreshing, accessible style and vitally important messages. One of the greatest of these is the beloved classic How to Be a No-Limit Person.

In How to Be a No-Limit Person, Dr. Dyer shines a sometimes irreverent, always insightful light on the significant and subtle ways we defeat our own calm, happiness, success, and sanity.

With the straightforwardness and humor that continue to captivate audiences around the world, he shows us how and why we allow and sometimes even encourage circumstances outside of us to disturb our inner harmony.

Then he offers an alternative: the path of the No-Limit Person. On this path, you achieve anything you set your mind to do. You’re happy and productive no matter what the circumstances.

Life’s little frustrations just don’t upset you anymore. You face your fears and challenges, and find ways to grow beyond them.

In this breakthrough program, Dr. Wayne Dyer shows you how you can become one of these life-loving, No-Limit people and how, as a No-Limit Person, you can:

Greet each day with high expectations and a clear sense of direction
Eliminate depression instantly by doing one simple thing (it works every time!)
Gain super physical and emotional health
Reap the benefits of adopting a new attitude toward change
Exercise a remarkable degree of control over everything in your life
Enjoy each day to the fullest, unaffected by unnecessary concerns about the past or future
Detach yourself from external criticism
Tune in to internal signals to deal effectively with everyday frustrations and challenges
Feel joy every day of your life

The message Dr. Dyer shares in How to Be a No-Limit Person is as innovative and exciting today as when it was first published. It is also one of those rare programs that has universal relevance and appeal.

No matter what age you are, what you do, or where your interests lie, Dr. Dyer will have you nodding your head in recognition and laughing out loud even as you feel your outlook changing, your options multiplying, and your capacity for living positively and purposefully expanding by leaps and bounds.

Once you experience this classic motivational audio seminar, you’ll understand why it has endured as one of our bestselling titles. And you’ll never look at life quite the same way again.

---

- Any idea, plan, or purpose may be placed in the mind through repetition of thought.

- Before success comes in any man's life, he's sure to meet with much temporary defeat and, perhaps some failures. When defeat overtakes a man, the easiest and the most logical thing to do is to quit. That's exactly what the majority of men do.

- Every person who wins in any undertaking must be willing to cut all sources of retreat. Only by doing so can one be sure of maintaining that state of mind known as a burning desire to win - essential to success.

- Everyone enjoys doing the kind of work for which he is best suited.

- Fears are nothing more than a state of mind.

- First comes thought; then organization of that thought, into ideas and plans; then transformation of those plans into reality. The beginning, as you will observe, is in your imagination.

- Great achievement is usually born of great sacrifice, and is never the result of selfishness.

- Happiness is found in doing, not merely possessing.

- Hold a picture of yourself long and steadily enough in your mind's eye, and you will be drawn toward it.

- Ideas are the beginning points of all fortunes.

- If you cannot do great things, do small things in a great way.

- If you do not conquer self, you will be conquered by self.

- If you must speak ill of another, do not speak it, write it in the sand near the water's edge.

- It has always been my belief that a man should do his best, regardless of how much he receives for his services, or the number of people he may be serving or the class of people served.

- It is always your next move.

- It is literally true that you can succeed best and quickest by helping others to succeed.

- It takes half your life before you discover life is a do-it-yourself project.

- Just as our eyes need light in order to see, our minds need ideas in order to conceive.

- Man, alone, has the power to transform his thoughts into physical reality; man, alone, can dream and make his dreams come true.

- Money without brains is always dangerous.

- More gold has been mined from the thoughts of men than has been taken from the earth.

- Most great people have attained their greatest success just one step beyond their greatest failure.

- Nature cannot be tricked or cheated. She will give up to you the object of your struggles only after you have paid her price.

- No accurate thinker will judge another person by that which the other person's enemies say about him.

- No man can succeed in a line of endeavor which he does not like.

- No man ever achieved worth-while success who did not, at one time or other, find himself with at least one foot hanging well over the brink of failure.

- No man is ever whipped until he quits in his own mind.

- One must marry one's feelings to one's beliefs and ideas. That is probably the only way to achieve a measure of harmony in one's life.

- Opportunity often comes disguised in the form of misfortune, or temporary defeat.

- Patience, persistence and perspiration make an unbeatable combination for success.

- Persistence is to the character of man as carbon is to steel.

- Procrastination is the bad habit of putting of until the day after tomorrow what should have been done the day before yesterday.

- Reduce your plan to writing. The moment you complete this, you will have definitely given concrete form to the intangible desire.

- Strength and growth come only through continuous effort and struggle.

- Success in its highest and noblest form calls for peace of mind and enjoyment and happiness which come only to the man who has found the work that he likes best.

- The battle is all over except the "shouting" when one knows what is wanted and has made up his mind to get it, whatever the price may be.

- The best way to sell yourself to others is first to sell the others to yourself.

- The ladder of success is never crowded at the top.

- The majority of men meet with failure because of their lack of persistence in creating new plans to take the place of those which fail.

- The man who does more than he is paid for will soon be paid for more than he does.

- The most interesting thing about a postage stamp is the persistence with which it sticks to its job.

- The starting point of all achievement is desire.

- The way to develop decisiveness is to start right where you are, with the very next question you face.

- The world has the habit of making room for the man whose actions show that he knows where he is going.

- There are no limitations to the mind except those we acknowledge.

- There is one quality which one must possess to win, and that is definiteness of purpose, the knowledge of what one wants, and a burning desire to possess it.

- Think and grow rich.

- Think twice before you speak, because your words and influence will plant the seed of either success or failure in the mind of another.

- Understand this law and you will then know, beyond room for the slightest doubt, that you are constantly punishing yourself for every wrong you commit and rewarding yourself for every act of constructive conduct in which you indulge.

- Victory is always possible for the person who refuses to stop fighting.

- War grows out of the desire of the individual to gain advantage at the expense of his fellow man.

- We begin to see, therefore, the importance of selecting our environment with the greatest of care, because environment is the mental feeding ground out of which the food that goes into our minds is extracted.

- When defeat comes, accept it as a signal that your plans are not sound, rebuild those plans, and set sail once more toward your coveted goal.

- When your desires are strong enough you will appear to possess superhuman powers to achieve.

- Wise men, when in doubt whether to speak or to keep quiet, give themselves the benefit of the doubt, and remain silent.

- You can start right where you stand and apply the habit of going the extra mile by rendering more service and better service than you are now being paid for.

- You give before you get.

- You might well remember that nothing can bring you success but yourself.

- Your ability to use the principle of autosuggestion will depend, very largely, upon your capacity to concentrate upon a given desire until that desire becomes a burning obsession.

- Your big opportunity may be right where you are now.

Excuses Begone!
Dr Wayne Dyer - The Video (Part 1-13)
---

It will be difficult...
I have the ability to accomplish any task
I set my mind to with ease and comfort.

It's going to be risky...
Being myself involves no risks.
It is my ultimate truth and I live fearlessly.

It will take a long time...
I have infinite patience when
it comes to fulfilling my own destiny.

There will be family drama...
I'd rather be loathed for who I am
than loved for who I'm not.

I don't deserve it...
I am a devine creation, a piece of God.
How could I be undeserving?

It is not my nature...
My essential nature is perfect and faultless.
It is to this nature that I return.

I can't afford it...
I am connected to an unlimited
source of abundance.

No one will help me...
The right circumstances and the right people
are already here and will show up on time.

It's never happen before...
I am open and willing to attract all that
I desire beginning here and now.

I am not strong enough...
I have access to unlimited assistance.
My strengh comes from my connection to my source.

I am not smart enough...
I'm a creation of the divine mind,
all is perfect and I am a genius in my own right.

I'm too old or I'm not old enough...
I'm an infinite being.
The age of my body has no bearing on what I do or who I am.

The rules won't let me...
I live my life according to divine rules.

It's to big...
I think only about what I can do now.
By thinking small I accomplish great things.

I don't have the energy...
I feel passionately about my life and this
passion fills me with excitement and energy.

It's my personal family history...
I live in the present moment by being gratefull
for all my life experiences as a child.

I'm too busy...
As I uncluttered my life, I free myself
to answer the callings of my soul.

I'm to scared...
I can accomplish anything I put
my mind to because I know I'm never alone.

DISCLAIMER: As some of you have pointed out in the comments, downloading personal copies of YouTube videos is not supported by the YouTube Terms of Service, which states:

“You may access User Submissions for your information and personal use solely as intended through the provided functionality of the YouTube Website. You shall not copy or download any User Submission unless you see a “download” or similar link displayed by YouTube on the YouTube Website for that User Submission.”

We want to stress that most of these tools do violate the ToS and that if you use them, you do so at your own risk. Also , if you’ve been tempted to download for a better browsing experience on the big screen, don’t forget YouTube has already got you covered on that with YouTube XL.

It’s been a while since we looked at ways to download YouTube videos to get local copies of your favorite vids, and we thought it might be time to take a look at which options are still left standing and what new apps are worth checking out.

For those of you new to the concept, you’ll need to know a couple of things. Many of these sites and tools simply grab YouTube (YouTube) videos in their native Flash format (FLV). To watch these files on your desktop, you’ll either need to get yourself an FLV player or convert the files into another format you can watch in your media player of choice (or on your iPod/iPhone, cell phone, or wherever the videos will ultimately end up).

Some of the listed tools include FLV players or file format converters along with the video download functions. Choose your player according to your needs and patience level — if you do a lot of downloading it might be worth your while to check out the more full-featured apps.

> What is Islam?

2009-08-31T11:08:00.013+08:00

What is Islam?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For other meanings, including people named 'Islam', see Islam (disambiguation).

Islam (Arabic: الإسلام‎ al-’islām, pronounced [ʔislæːm] is a monotheistic, Abrahamic religion based on the teachings of the Qur’an, a religious book considered by its adherents to be the verbatim word of God (Arabic: الله‎, Allāh), and the Islamic prophet Muhammad's personally demonstrated examples (collected through narration of his companions in the volumes of Hadith) for implementing them.

The word Islam is a homograph, having multiple meanings, and a triliteral of the word salam, which directly translates as peace.

Other meanings include submission, or the total surrender of oneself to God (see Islam (term)). An adherent of Islam is a Muslim, meaning "one who submits (to God)". The word Muslim is the participle of the same verb of which Islām is the infinitive.

Muslims regard Islam as the completed and universal version of an original monotheistic faith revealed to peoples before, including to Adam, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and other prophets. Islamic tradition holds that previous messages have changed and the revelations were distorted.

Religious practices include the Five Pillars of Islam, which are five duties that unite Muslims into a community. Islamic law (Arabic: شريعة Šarīʿah) touches on virtually every aspect of life and society, encompassing everything from dietary laws and banking to warfare and welfare.

The vast majority of Muslims belong to one of two major denominations, the Sunni (roughly 85%) and Shi'a (roughly 15%). Islam is the predominant religion in much of Africa, the Middle East, as well as in major parts of Asia. Large communities are also found in China, Russia and the Balkans.

Converts and immigrant communities are found in almost every part of the world. About 20% of Muslims live in Arab countries, 30% in the Indian Subcontinent, and 15.6% in Indonesia alone, the largest Muslim country in absolute numbers.

With 1.3 billion to 1.8 billion Muslims, Islam is the second-largest religion in the world and the fastest growing religion in the world.

Etymology and meaning

The word Islam is a verbal noun originating from the triliteral root s-l-m, and is derived from the Arabic verb Aslama, which means "to accept, surrender or submit." Thus, Islam means acceptance of and submission to God, and believers must demonstrate this by worshipping him, following his commands, and avoiding polytheism.

The word is given a number of meanings in the Qur'an. In some verses (ayat), the quality of Islam as an internal conviction is stressed: "Whomsoever God desires to guide, He expands his breast to Islam."

Other verses connect islām and dīn (usually translated as "religion"): "Today, I have perfected your religion (dīn) for you; I have completed My blessing upon you; I have approved Islam for your religion."

Still others describe Islam as an action of returning to God - more than just a verbal affirmation of faith. Another technical meaning in Islamic thought is as one part of a triad of islam, imān (faith), and ihsān (excellence); where it represents acts of worship (`ibādah) and Islamic law (sharia).

It will be difficult...

I have the ability to accomplish any task
I set my mind to with ease and comfort.

It's going to be risky...

Being myself involves no risks.
It is my ultimate truth and I live fearlessly.

It will take a long time...

I have infinite patience when
it comes to fulfilling my own destiny.

There will be family drama...

I'd rather be loathed for who I am
than loved for who I'm not.

I don't deserve it...

I am a devine creation, a piece of God.
How could I be undeserving?

It is not my nature...

My essential nature is perfect and faultless.
It is to this nature that I return.

I can't afford it...

I am connected to an unlimited
source of abundance.

No one will help me...

The right circumstances and the right people
are already here and will show up on time.

It's never happen before...

I am open and willing to attract all that
I desire beginning here and now.

I am not strong enough...

I have access to unlimited assistance.
My strengh comes from my connection to my source.

I am not smart enough...

I'm a creation of the divine mind,
all is perfect and I am a genius in my own right.

I'm too old or I'm not old enough...

I'm an infinite being.
The age of my body has no bearing on what I do or who I am.

The rules won't let me...

I live my life according to divine rules.

It's to big...

I think only about what I can do now.
By thinking small I accomplish great things.

I don't have the energy...

I feel passionately about my life and this
passion fills me with excitement and energy.

It's my personal family history...

I live in the present moment by being gratefull
for all my life experiences as a child.

I'm too busy...

As I uncluttered my life, I free myself
to answer the callings of my soul.

I'm to scared...

I can accomplish anything I put
my mind to because I know I'm never alone.

- About Religion and God
.

Christian, Jew, Muslim, shaman, Zoroastrian, stone, ground, mountain, river, each has a secret way of being with the mystery, unique and not to be judged.

Everyone is so afraid of death, but the real sufis just laugh: nothing tyrannizes their hearts. What strikes the oyster shell does not damage the pearl.

If in thirst you drink water from a cup, you see God in it. Those who are not in love with God will see only their own faces in it.

He is a letter to everyone. You open it. It says, 'Live!'

In truth everything and everyone

Is a shadow of the Beloved,

And our seeking is His seeking

And our words are His words...

We search for Him here and there,

while looking right at Him.

Sitting by His side, we ask:

'O Beloved, where is the Beloved?'

God turns you from one feeling to another and teaches you by means of opposites, so that you will have two wings to fly - not one.

Remember, the entrance door to the sanctuary is inside you.
.

- About Life

.
I come to you, aching for you. You say, 'You're drunk. Go away.' I say 'No. I'm not drunk. Please open the door.' You say, 'You are, you are... Go away'.

"You already have the precious mixture that will make you well. Use it."

"Appear as you are,

Be as you appear."

Load the ship and set out. No one knows for certain whether the vessel will sink or reach the harbor. Cautious people say, "I'll do nothing until I can be sure". Merchants know better. If you do nothing, you lose. Don't be one of those merchants who wont risk the ocean.

When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.

Conventional opinion is the ruin of our souls.

Whatever possessions and objects of its desires the lower self may obtain, it hangs on to them, refusing to let them go out of greed for more, or out of fear of poverty and need.

What was said to the rose that made it open was said to me here in my chest.

In this world of trickery emptiness is what your heart wants.

In silence there is eloquence. Stop weaving and watch how the pattern improves.

You wander from room to room

Hunting for the diamond necklace

That is already around your neck!

Travelers, it is late.

Life's sun is going to set.

During these brief days that you have strength,

be quick and spare no effort of your wings.

You suppose you are the trouble

But you are the cure

You suppose that you are the lock on the door

But you are the key that opens it

It's too bad that you want to be someone else

You don't see your own face, your own beauty

Yet, no face is more beautiful than yours.

When you come looking for sugar,

your bag will be examined

to see how much it can hold;

it will be filled accordingly.

Outside ideas of right doing and wrong doing there is a field.

I'll meet you there.

This being human is a guest house.

Every morning a new arrival.

A joy, a depression, a meanness,

some momentary awareness comes

as an unexpected visitor.

Welcome and entertain all!

Even if they're a crowd of sorrows,

who violently sweep your house

empty of its furniture,

still, treat each guest honorably.

He may be clearing you out

for some new delight.

The dark thought, the shame, the malice,

meet them at the door laughing,

and invite them in.

Be grateful for whomever comes,

because each has been sent

as a guide from beyond.
.

- About LOVE

.
Hangovers come with love, yet love's the cure for hangovers.

Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.

The way you make love

is the way God will be with you.

Close both eyes

to see with the other eye.

Every object, every being,

is a jar full of delight.

Let the lover be disgraceful, crazy,

absentminded. Someone sober

will worry about things going badly.

Let the lover be.

The agony of lovers

burns with the fire of passion.

Lovers leave traces of where they've been.

The wailing of broken hearts

is the doorway to God.

Don't grieve. Anything you lose comes round in another form.

Friends are enemies sometimes, and enemies friends.

I was a tiny bug. Now a mountain. I was left behind. Now honored at the head. You healed my wounded hunger and anger, and made me a poet who sings about joy.

If your guidance is your ego, don't rely on luck for help. you sleep during the day and the nights are short. By the time you wake up your life may be over.

Let the beauty we love be what we do.

Let the lover be disgraceful, crazy, absent-minded. Someone sober will worry about events going badly. Let the lover be.

Let yourself be silently drawn by the stronger pull of what you really love.

Most people guard against going into the fire, and so end up in it.

My friend, the sufi is the friend of the present moment. To say tomorrow is not our way.

Nightingales are put in cages because their songs give pleasure. Whoever heard of keeping a crow?

No longer a stranger, you listen all day to these crazy love-words. Like a bee you fill hundreds of homes with honey, though yours is a long flight from here.
.

- Gaining wisdom

.
No mirror ever became iron again; No bread ever became wheat; No ripened grape ever became sour fruit. Mature yourself and be secure from a change for the worse. Become the light.

Only from the heart Can you touch the sky.

Patience is the key to joy.

People of the world don't look at themselves, and so they blame one another.

Since in order to speak, one must first listen, learn to speak by listening.

That which is false troubles the heart, but truth brings joyous tranquility.

The intelligent want self-control; children want candy.

The middle path is the way to wisdom.

The only lasting beauty is the beauty of the heart.

Thirst drove me down to the water where I drank the moon's reflection.

To praise is to praise how one surrenders to the emptiness.

We come spinning out of nothingness, scattering stars like dust.

We rarely hear the inward music, but we're all dancing to it nevertheless.

You think the shadow is the substance.

The Shift Movie - Ambition to Meaning;
Finding your Life's Purposes [13 parts]

---
About The Film
The Shift
http://www.dyermovie.com/

From the creators of You Can Heal Your Life: The Movie comes a compelling portrait of three modern lives in need of new direction and new meaning. In his first-ever movie (written by Kristen Lazarian and directed by Michael Goorjian), Wayne Dyer explores the spiritual journey in the second half of life when we long to find the purpose that is our unique contribution to the world. The powerful shift from the ego constructs we are taught early in life by parents and society—which promote an emphasis on achievement and accumulation—are shown in contrast to a life of meaning, focused on serving and giving back.

Filmed on coastal California’s spectacular Monterey Peninsula, The Shift captures every person’s mid-life longing for a more purposeful, soul-directed life.

“Thoroughly unprepared, we take the step into the afternoon of life. Worse still, we take this step with the false presupposition that our truths and our ideals will serve us as hitherto. But we cannot live the afternoon of life according to the program of life’s morning, for what was great in the morning will be little at evening and what in the morning was true, at evening will have become a lie.” - Carl Gustav Jung

The Shift explores the intertwined lives of an overachieving businessman (played by Edward Kerr), a mother of two young children seeking her own expression in the world (Shannon Sturges), and a film director trying to make a name for himself (Michael DeLuise). Also starring Portia de Rossi. The Shift not only inspires, but also teaches us how to find the path to our spiritual purpose and therefore our greatest joy.

“I am 68 years old and I have a new career,” Dyer explained. “When I was asked to do this film, I didn’t think ‘I’m too old to do something I’ve never done before.’ I thought ‘I am open to everything. I am willing to change and to learn.’ I’m more proud of this film than of anything I’ve ever done before.”

Wayne Dyer appears in the film as himself. Special appearance by Louise L. Hay.

A mind at peace, a mind centered and not focused on harming others, is stronger than any physical force in the universe.
.
Abundance is not something we acquire. It is something we tune into.
.
Anything you really want, you can attain, if you really go after it.
.
Be miserable. Or motivate yourself. Whatever has to be done, it's always your choice.
.
Begin to see yourself as a soul with a body rather than a body with a soul.
.
Conflict cannot survive without your participation.
.
Deficiency motivation doesn't work. It will lead to a life-long pursuit of try to fix me. Learn to appreciate what you have and where and who you are.
.
Doing what you love is the cornerstone of having abundance in your life.
.
Everything in the universe has a purpose. Indeed, the invisible intelligence that flows through everything in a purposeful fashion is also flowing through you.
.
Everything is perfect in the universe - even your desire to improve it.
.
Everything you are against weakens you. Everything you are for empowers you.
.
Freedom means you are unobstructed in living your life as you choose. Anything less is a form of slavery.
.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
.
How people treat you is their karma; how you react is yours.
.
I cannot always control what goes on outside. But I can always control what goes on inside.
.
I think and that is all that I am.
.
If you are living out of a sense of obligation you are slave.
.
If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.
.
It is impossible for you to be angry and laugh at the same time. Anger and laughter are mutually exclusive and you have The power to choose either.
.
It makes no sense to worry about things you have no control over because there's nothing you can do about them, and why worry about things you do control? The activity of worrying keeps you immobilized.
.
It's never crowded along the extra mile.
.
Judgements prevent us from seeing the good that lies beyond appearances.
.
Live one day at a time emphasizing ethics rather than rules.
.
Love is the ability and willingness to allow those that you care for to be what they choose for themselves without any insistence that they satisfy you.
.
Loving people live in a loving world. Hostile people live in a hostile world. Same world.
.
Maxim for life: You get treated in life the way you teach people to treat you.
.
Miracles come in moments. Be ready and willing.
.
Only the insecure strive for security.
.
Our intention creates our reality.
.
Our lives are a sum total of the choices we have made.
.
People who want the most approval get the least and people who need approval the least get the most.
.
Real magic in relationships means an absence of judgment of others.
.
Relationships based on obligation lack dignity.
.
Self-worth comes from one thing - thinking that you are worthy.
.
Simply put, you believe that things or people make you unhappy, but this is not accurate. You make yourself unhappy.
.
Stop acting as if life is a rehearsal. Live this day as if it were your last. The past is over and gone. The future is not guaranteed.
.
Successful people make money. It's not that people who make money become successful, but that successful people attract money. They bring success to what they do.
.
The components of anxiety, stress, fear, and anger do not exist independently of you in the world. They simply do not exist in the physical world, even though we talk about them as if they do.
.
The fact that you are willing to say, "I do not understand, and it is fine," is the greatest understanding you could exhibit.
.
The highest form of ignorance is when you reject something you don't know anything about.
.
The last suit that you wear, you don't need any pockets.
.
There is no scarcity of opportunity to make a living at what you love; there's only scarcity of resolve to make it happen.
.
There is no way to prosperity, prosperity is the way.
.
There's nothing wrong with anger provided you use it constructively.
.
Transformation literally means going beyond your form.
.
We are Divine enough to ask and we are important enough to receive.
.
What comes out of you when you are squeezed is what is inside of you.
.
What we think determines what happens to us, so if we want to change our lives, we need to stretch our minds.
.
When I chased after money, I never had enough. When I got my life on purpose and focused on giving of myself and everything that arrived into my life, then I was prosperous.
.
When you dance, your purpose is not to get to a certain place on the floor. It's to enjoy each step along the way.
.
When you judge another, you do not define them, you define yourself.
.
When you squeeze an orange, orange juice comes out - because that's what's inside. When you are squeezed, what comes out is what is inside.
.
You are doomed to make choices. This is life's greatest paradox.
.
You are important enough to ask and you are blessed enough to receive back.
.
You can never get enough of what you don't want.
.
You can't choose up sides on a round world.
.
You cannot always control what goes on outside. But you can always control what goes on inside.
.
You cannot be lonely if you like the person you're alone with.
.
You leave old habits behind by starting out with the thought, 'I release the need for this in my life'.
.
You'll see it when you believe it.
.
Your children will see what you're all about by what you live rather than what you say.

Surfing Since 1991: The Evolution of Web Browsers
by Paul Lilly
Article from MaximumPC

In order to surf the web, you need a web browser, and today there are several different ones to choose from. If you're looking for a lean, no-nonsense browser, Chrome is the one for you.

Internet Explorer still stands as the odds on favorite when you want to make sure pages load correctly (not because of superior standards support, but because its majority market share have driven developers to code their webpages to look best on IE).

Firefox has found more than a niche market by giving users near endless customization, and Apple's Safari purports to run circles around everyone else (it doesn't). And then there's the cornucopia of alternative browsers and browser shells, like Flock (Firefox-based) and Avant (IE-based).

No matter which browser you choose to surf the web with, the features you take for granted today are the result of nearly two decades of browser design.

On the following pages, we'll take you through a visual tour, in chronological order, of every major PC-based (read: not Mac) web browser that ever was, starting with the very first one: WorldWideWeb. We'll tell you what made each one unique and, when applicable, what it contributed to modern browser development.

Article from CNET
Top 10 automotive-safety features

1. Seat belts
The humble three-point seat belt recently celebrated its 50th anniversary. Half a century later, wearing a seat belt is still the best way to avoid injury in a crash thanks to innovations such as pretensioners and force distribution systems that can spread the force of a crash over a few seconds.

2. Airbags
Airbags are deployable bladders of air that cushion passengers in the event of a crash. The Mercedes-Benz ESF 2009 safety concept includes innovations such as a center airbag that keeps passengers from colliding with each other and an air brake that deploys from below the vehicle to increase braking friction when a collision is evident.

3. Crumple zones
Crumple zones help save lives by deforming and absorbing crash energy. Other innovations, such as engine mounts that are designed to drop the engine below the vehicle in the event of a crash and the Smart Fortwo's superstrong passenger cage, help to divert crash energy around the passengers instead of through them.

4. Antilock brakes
By pulsing the brakes to keep the wheels from locking up, antilock brake systems reduce stopping distances and keep drivers in control of their vehicles during emergency stops.

5. Traction control
As much as we'd all like to think that we're hot-shot drivers, the fact remains that most of us are not. When the road gets slippery, a good traction control or stability control system can mean the difference between a high-speed scare and a high-speed crash.

6. Rearview cameras
In vehicles with poor rearward visibility, a rearward-facing camera can prevent fender benders while parking or, at best, save someone's life. Other useful camera setups include the BMW 750Li's side-view cameras mounted at the tip of its long nose and the Infiniti FX's bird's-eye camera system that uses multiple cameras to give drivers an overhead view of the area around the vehicle.

7. Blind-spot monitoring
Blind-spot monitoring systems, like this one in the Audi Q5, utilize proximity sensors to notify the driver of potential obstructions in their vehicle's blind spots with an indicator light, an audible chime, or both. The best of these systems work even at low speeds.

8. Adaptive cruise control
Adaptive cruise control uses lasers or forward-facing radar to maintain a safe distance between your car and the car in front of you while coasting down the highway. When combined with a collision detection system, these systems can greatly increase the safety of a vehicle.

9. Voice command
Voice command allows drivers to spend more time with their hands on the steering wheel and less time fumbling with controls. Notable systems include Honda's voice control in the CR-V, which allows even climate controls to be adjusted, and Ford's sync, which allows drivers to choose music by name.

10. Bluetooth hands-free calling
True, the safest way to drive is without distractions, but there are times when we find ourselves having to answer the phone while driving. Bluetooth hands-free calling makes sure that drivers can at least keep their eyes up and their hands on the wheel while doing so.

Extra automotive-safety features

Honorable mention: Head-up displays
The addition of a head-up display, such as the one in this Chevrolet Corvette, allows you to check your speed and view turn-by-turn directions without ever taking your eyes off of the road.

Honorable mention: Night vision
Night vision, seen here on the BMW 750Li, is only marginally useful in metropolitan areas, but drivers who frequently drive on twisty rural roads at night may find the heat-sensitive camera to be useful.

Windows 7 RTM - a closer look

Now that Windows RTM is in the can, what is the final verdict? Is it worth upgrading?
By Preston Gralla

Article from Computerworld
Now that Microsoft's Windows 7 has reached the release to manufacturing (RTM) stage, it's time to take a close look at all the features of the upcoming operating system.

You might think that, because there are so many similarities between Windows 7 and Windows Vista, Windows 7 is essentially just a big Windows Vista service pack. But in reality, Windows 7 is a solid, well-performing operating system, free of many of the glitches that bedeviled the launch of Windows Vista. Speed improvements, interface enhancements and easier ways to manage your documents make this a new operating system in its own right, and one that's well worth the upgrade.

Installation and performance
In order to examine all the pros and cons of the new OS, I installed Windows 7 RTM on a Dell Inspiron E1505 notebook with 1GB of RAM and a 1.83 GHz Core Duo processor.

I performed a fresh install, rather than an upgrade, which took approximately 45 minutes (including the usual restarts one has come to expect from Windows installations).

The install was largely uneventful, with two minor anomalies. After Windows 7 installed, it did not recognize my video card and used a generic VGA driver. This was problematic on my laptop, because the display cannot use the full 1280 by 800 resolution. However, Windows 7 soon resolved the problem itself: It automatically downloaded the proper driver via Windows Updates. After a reboot, all was well.

I've found similar problems with every prerelease version of Windows 7 I've tried, including RC1. RTM is a slight improvement over RC1 in this respect, because with RC1 I had to manually find and update the driver myself. In RTM, Windows 7 did it by itself. Still, clearly it would have been better if the initial Windows 7 installation used the proper driver. We'll have to wait and see when Windows 7 hits retail shelves whether this becomes a common issue.

More problematic was a blip that I also had with several prerelease versions of Windows 7. I was unable to get Windows Aero to work, even after the new driver downloaded. So I turned to the Control Panel Troubleshooting applet and clicked "Display Aero desktop effects," and Windows discovered the problem -- the Desktop Windows Manager was disabled. The troubleshooter enabled it, and the problem was permanently fixed.

On the earlier versions, the problem was back each time I rebooted, and I had to run the troubleshooter each time. Although RTM is an improvement, this is not how an operating system should run on installation.

On the plus side, performance, even on my aging Dell, was surprisingly zippy and certainly superior to that of Windows Vista on the same machine. Aero worked like a charm, windows and dialog boxes appeared quickly, and I experienced no slowdowns. The Control Panel and its applets opened nearly immediately, without the delays common in Windows Vista.

The Power of Intention
By Valarie Griebel, Successful Living

WINTER 2008 “It’s hard for me to call it a law. I never liked laws or rules.” Dr. Wayne Dyer, affectionately known as the “father of motivation” by his fans, sits back in his chair, props his bare feet up on the coffee table and shares his unique take on the Law of Attraction. His inviting smile, reassuring blue eyes and relaxed demeanor reflect the warm and loving energy he speaks of so frequently to others.

Dyer has another term for the concept behind the Law of Attraction. He calls it the Power of Intention. His philosophy is pure and simple, “The law of attraction is this: You don’t attract what you want. You attract what you are.”

“Most people’s mistake in trying to apply the law of attraction is they want things; they demand things. But God doesn’t work that way,” continues Dyer. “It’s all about allowing.”

Dyer refers to the Tao Te Ching, written by Lao Tzu. “He says in there, 2,500 years ago, if you live from these virtues, then all that you could ever need or want could be provided for you.” Dyer excitedly retrieves his personal copy of the book, leans forward and reads the words that touch him so deeply. He explains how virtue is a very important concept in the Law of Attraction.

“This is called the Hua Hu Ching, written by Lao Tzu. It’s the unknown teachings of Lao Tzu. Number 51 says, ‘Those who want to know the truth of the universe should practice the four cardinal virtues. The first is reverence for all of life. This manifests as unconditional love and respect for oneself and all other beings. The second is natural sincerity. This manifests as honesty, simplicity and faithfulness. The third is gentleness, which manifests as kindness, consideration for others and sensitivity to spiritual truth. The fourth is supportiveness. This manifests as service to others without expectation of reward.”

“All great spiritual masters are teaching what we’re talking about,” says Dyer. “They’re teaching forgiveness. They’re teaching kindness. They’re teaching love. They’re not teaching wanting. They’re not teaching greed.”

So the notion of seeking what you want, or think you need, is not what the Power of Intention is all about. “The ego’s mantra is ‘What’s in it for me? How can I get more? I want a BMW in my driveway next Thursday,’” he explains. “All of that is what most spiritual teachers call the false self—the ego.”

According to Dyer, the process of allowing, just being and embracing this heightened level of consciousness, goes back not to attracting what you want, but attracting what you are.

“You have to just be. You have to let go. You have to allow. You have to be free and make this your consciousness.” He continues, “Basically, what you would see is a frequency (of energy) that manifests itself through the process of giving, of allowing, of offering and of serving. It asks nothing back.”

Dyer illustrates the concept of giving without expectations by quoting the great poet Hafiz: “Even after all this time, the sun never says to the earth ‘you owe me.’”

Excitement and energy permeate the room as Dyer finishes his thought, “Just think of what a love like that can do. It lights up the whole world.”

Dr. Wayne Dyer is an internationally renowned author and speaker in the field of self-improvement. He has written more than 30 books—many of which were featured as National Public Television specials—created numerous audio and video programs, and appeared on thousands of television and radio shows.

His new movie, The Shift, is available at HayHouse.com.

Dr. Dyer’s own story of personal triumph and spiritual awakening will be featured in the next issue of Successful Living Magazine.
