There is no Being there is only a Becoming.

Meditation is not a religion but the conscious cultivation of mental faculties. It's an essential part of the process for Self-transformation and Personal as Spiritual Development and self help, self improvement. Meditation is an adventure of self-discovery and stands for becoming the Creator of what happens in Your Life!

Lucid Dreaming

The term was coined by the Dutch Psychiatrist and writer Frederik van Eeden (1860-1932).

Therefore, lucid dreaming means dreaming while knowing that you are dreaming. Everyone has, in theory, the capacity to learn to dream lucidly, because everyone dreams every night. Whenever we dream, we find ourselves in complete worlds, as richly detailed, moving and impressive as the world of waking life. This ability to create worlds is the natural endowment of the human mind. In dreams, this wondrous talent is fully demonstrated. The worlds we create in our minds are so convincingly real we cannot easily tell them from the "real" world of waking.

This brings with it the possibility of enhanced healing capacities, hinted at in research on mental imagery. People may be able to use lucid dreaming to shorten the time it takes them to recover from illnesses or operations, and to stimulate the redevelopment of physical skills following injury.

Lucid dreaming also offers considerable potential for a variety of practical applications, which include aiding personal- development, enhancing self-confidence, overcoming nightmares, improving mental and physical health, facilitating creative problem solving, and more.

On Defining & Ensuring Personality Development

Be Yourself; Be Happy!

Living happily!

Did you know that most of us have some form of self-esteem or self-confidence challenge?

(Actually rumor, roughly 85% of all people do)

In many cases, it can be so subtle we're not even consciously aware of it.

Candidly speaking, regardless how much success you have, no matter how much self-confidence2 and self-esteem you have, this is an area where you in some way, always silently and unconsciously sabotage yourself.

The thing is, when it comes to personality development, I believe that nothing is more important than having a solid foundation of self-esteem. The reason is because our self-confidence gives us a foundation, it gives us the courageousness to explore ourselves and the world we live in.

Transpersonal- or Personal Development is the systematically progressing towards emotional intelligence and spiritual growth for a fulfilled human existence by implementing the ways you personally need to conquer in the final stage your freedom and inner peace and so a successful living. It's the breaking free from all limitations and constrains as restrains.

Apocalypse and Personal Apocalypse

Apocalypse Greek: Apokálypsis; "lifting of the veil" or "revelation" is a term applied to the disclosure to certain privileged persons of something hidden from the majority of humankind.

The interesting truth in the "Revelations" is in seeing your own truth. It's happening to you, just as it's happening to every other being right now. And if it's happening to every single being, it's also happening to the world. The world is in the midst of seeing its own truth and cannot lie to itself.....well, it's really the collective consciousness of us all that is seeing its own truth. Read more...

There will be those who say, "I do not know", who replied that "not exist" or others who claim to believe "faith".

The Interview with God

THE INTERVIEW WITH GOD

I dreamed I had an interview with God.

"So you would like to interview me?" God asked.
"If you have the time" I said.
God smiled.
"My time is eternity."
"What questions do you have in mind for me?"

"What surprises you most about humankind?"
God answered...
"That they get bored with childhood, they rush to grow up,
and then long to be children again."

"That they lose their health to make money... and then lose
their money to restore their health."

"That by thinking anxiously about the future, they forget the present,
such that they live in neither the present nor the future."

"That they live as if they will never die, and die as though they had never lived."
God's hand took mine and we were silent for a while.

And then I asked...
"As a parent, what are some of life's lessons you want your children to learn?"

"To learn they cannot make anyone love them. All they can do is let themselves be loved."

"To learn that it is not good to compare themselves to others."

"To learn to forgive by practicing forgiveness."

"To learn that it only takes a few seconds to open profound wounds in those they love, and it can take many years to heal them."

"To learn that a rich person is not one who has the most, but is one who needs the least."

"To learn that there are people who love them dearly, but simply have not yet learned how to express or show their feelings."

"To learn that two people can look at the same thing and see it differently."

"To learn that it is not enough that they forgive one another, but they must also forgive themselves."

"Thank you for your time," I said humbly.

"Is there anything else you would like your children to know?"

God smiled and said,
"Just know that I am here... always."

DEFINITION of YIN e YANG

The Yin and Yang are the ancient Oriental names of manifestation, the union of the apparent contra-opposed (E + and E-) ethereal Force (E), which is the constituting element of the eternal unstable Infinity, that permits manifestation in neutral Energy as relative mass, that is in the 2 sides of Matter (E + = white light and E- = black light) the presence of energy-matters always more complicated, (E + = Em+Ef) & (E-= Em+Ef ) until to the humans and beyond.

Are You a Zombie Deprived of Sleep suffering Insomnia?

Many people living in modern industrial societies suffer from a chronic and worsening sleep deficit/sleep disorder or insomnia.

For most of us today, an average of nine hours sleep each night is an impossible dream caused from Insomnia. It's true that some of us really do need only five or six hours of sleep each night, but those people are in a minority. Most of us require seven, eight, or even more hours of good quality sleep every night in order to function at our best intellectually, physically and emotionally.

In sleep deprivation experiments conducted on volunteers, has been found that even a few days of sleep loss produce a marked negative effect on a person's mental abilities. Chronic insomnia is an extremely common problem today suffered by many millions of people and, while an increasing number of people do look for an insomnia cure, a substantial proportion of sufferers simply choose to live with the condition and merely adjust their lifestyle accordingly.

But could this be storing up problems for the future?

Ignoring Insomnia Today Could Lead To Problems Of Anxiety Tomorrow!

In a recent and extensive study researchers have been studying the problem of chronic insomnia and both anxiety and depression in a group of people. The study would appear to indicate that, in general terms, chronic insomnia appears first and over time in many cases leads to anxiety disorder.

So just what does this mean?

A persistent insomnia going on not simply for a matter of days, or even a week or two, but for several weeks and months is that we need to be concerned about when we talk in terms of chronic insomnia or sleep disorder. Music can be beneficial to people suffering from depression, anxiety and insomnia. It has also been proved to have a positive effect on people who are seriously ill in hospital.

Research has shown that music has a profound effect on your body and psyche. In fact, there's a growing field of health care known as Music Therapy, which uses music to heal. Those who practice music therapy are finding a benefit in using music to help cancer patients, children with ADD, and even hospitals are beginning to use music and music therapy to help with pain management.

Research has also shown that certain music can stimulate brainwaves to resonate in sync with the beat - a slower tempo promoting a calm, relaxed state. Calm time takes this process much further, by enabling your brainwaves to progress from gentle relaxation through to deeper states of calmness.

Using Meditation induced from brainwave music to trigger this wonderful natural effect will release hormones and neurotransmitters that flood your body and mind with pure, cleansing relaxation.

Here's what scientists know happens during simple alpha meditation:

* Increase in attention focusing, and emotional balance.

* An increase in norepinephrin, serotonin levels.

* A decrease in blood lactate levels.

* An increase in beta-endorphin levels.

* Enhance the immune system.

* Reduce stress.

Remember that all of these conditions of insomnia or sleep disorder, anxiety can be treated naturally and there is no need to worry about the possibility of having to take sleeping pills and other drugs for either anxiety or depression. In the vast majority of cases, and certainly if caught early enough, changes to your lifestyle and diet are often all that is necessary to have you right in no time at all.

The ILLUMINATI - The new world Order

As the word itself the Illuminated are the bearers of light, those who know, but their light is, apparently, Lucifer or Satan? Do you want to Know the New World Order?

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO IMPROVE YOUR SELF?

Sometimes, when all our doubts, fears and insecurities wrap ourselves up, we always come up with the idea of "I wish I was somebody else." More often than not, we think and believe that someone or rather, most people are better than us.- when in reality, the fact is, most people are more scared than us.

You spot a totally eye-catching girl sitting by herself at a party, casually sipping on a glass of Asti Spumanti.
You think to yourself, "she looks so perfectly calm and confident." But if you could read thru her transparent mind, you would see a bunch of clouds of thoughts and you might just be amazed that she's thinking "are people talking about why I am seated here alone?... Why don't guys find me attractive? %u2026I don't like my ankles, they look too skinny%u2026 I wish I was as intelligent as my best friend."

We look at a young business entrepreneur and say "Wooh%u2026 what else could he ask for?" He stares at himself at the mirror and murmur to himself, "I hate my big eyes%u2026 I wonder why my friends won't talk to me%u2026 I hope mom and dad would still work things out."

Isn't it funny? We look at other people, envy them for looking so outrageously perfect and wish we could trade places with them, while they look at us and thinks of the same thing. We are insecure of other people who themselves are insecure of us. We suffer from low self-esteem, lack of self-confidence and lose hope in self improvement because we are enveloped in quiet desperation.

Sometimes, you notice that you have an irritating habit like biting off your finger nails, having a foul mouth, and you - of all people, is the last to know.

I have a friend who never gets tired of talking. And in most conversations, she is the only one who seems to be interested in the things she has to say. So all of our other friends tend to avoid the circles whenever she's around, and she doesn't notices how badly she became socially handicapped - gradually affecting the people in her environment.

One key to self improvement is to LISTEN and TALK to a trusted friend. Find someone who you find comfort in opening up with even the most gentle topics you want to discuss. Ask questions like "do you think I am ill-mannered?", "Do I always sound so argumentative?", "Do I talk too loud?", "Does my breath smell?", "Do I ever bore you when were together?". In this way, the other person will obviously know that you are interested in the process of self improvement. Lend her your ears for comments and criticisms and don't give her answers like "Don't exaggerate! That's just the way I am!" Open up your mind and heart as well. And in return, you may want to help your friend with constructive criticism that will also help her improve her self.

One of Whitney Houston's songs says "Learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all." True enough. In order to love others, you must love yourself too. Remember, you cannot give what you do not have.

Before telling other people some ways on how to improve themselves, let them see that you yourself is a representation and a product of self improvement. Self improvement makes us better people, we then inspire other people, and then the rest of the world will follow.

Stop thinking of yourselves as second-rate beings. Forget the repetitive thought of "If only I was richer%u2026 if only I was thinner" and so on. Accepting your true self is the first step to self improvement. We need to stop comparing ourselves to others only to find out at the end that we've got 10 more reasons to envy them.

We all have our insecurities. Nobody is perfect. We always wish we had better things, better features, better body parts, etc.
But life need not to be perfect for people to be happy about themselves.Self improvement and loving yourself is not a matter of shouting to the whole world that you are perfect and you are the best. It's the virtue of acceptance and contentment.
When we begin to improve ourselves, we then begin to feel contented and happy.

Synthesis of Spiritual Medicine = Consciousness

The Universe is an immense Energetically and Cybernetic body, this means that it reflects, communicates, memorize, acts, exchanges information to and from every point of itself, therefore is it a Living Being equipped with its own Spirit that tends to make it increasingly complex and Perfect from and to each of its point, by meaning of the Movement and the Materially/Energetically/Spiritually transformation, consequently is it actually also a Psycho-Electro-Magnetic-Informed -Field, which then Informs itself and takes increasingly shape, manifesting continuously Spiritual/Matter which self organizes into new matter that generates Spirit/Thought (it informs itself) in a closed infinite loop.

SELF IMPROVEMENT AND SUCCESS

Everything that happens to us happens in purpose. And sometimes, one thing leads to another. Instead of locking yourself up in your cage of fears and crying over past heartaches, embarrassment and failures, treat them as your teachers and they will
become your tools in both self improvement and success.

I remember watching Patch Adams - its my favorite movie, actually. Its one great film that will help you improve yourself.
Hunter "patch" Adams is a medical student who failed to make it through the board exams. After months of suffering in melancholy, depression and suicidal attempts - he decided to seek for medical attention and voluntarily admitted himself in a psychiatric ward. His months of stay in the hospital led him to meeting different kinds of people. Sick people in that matter. He met a catatonic, a mentally retarded, a schizophrenic and so on. Patch found ways of treating his own ailment
and finally realized he has to get back on track. He woke up one morning realizing that after all the failure and pains he has gone through, he still want to become the a doctor. He carries with himself a positive attitude that brought him self
improvement and success. He didn't only improved himself, but also the life of the people around him and the quality of life.
Did he succeed? Needless to say, he became the best damn doctor his country has ever known.

So, when does self improvement become synonymous with success? Where do we start? Take these tips, friends...

*Stop thinking and feeling as if you're a failure, because you're not. How can others accept you if YOU can't accept YOU?

*When you see hunks and models on TV, think more on self improvement, not self pitying. Self acceptance is not just about having nice slender legs, or great abs. Concentrate on inner beauty.

*When people feel so down and low about themselves, help them move up. Don't go down with them. They'll pull you down further and both of you will end up feeling inferior.

*The world is a large room for lessons, not mistakes. Don't feel stupid and doomed forever just because you failed on a science quiz. There's always a next time. Make rooms for self improvement.

*Take things one at a time. You don't expect black sheep's to be goody-two-shoes in just a snap of a finger. Self improvement is a one day at a time process.

*Self improvement results to inner stability, personality development and dig this.....SUCCESS. It comes from self confidence, self appreciation and self esteem.

* Set meaningful and achievable goals. Self improvement doesn't turn you to be the exact replica of Cameron Diaz or Ralph Fiennes. It hopes and aims to result to an improved and better YOU.

*Little things mean BIG to other people. Sometimes, we don't realize that the little things that we do like a pat on the back, saying "hi" or "hello", greeting someone "good day" or telling Mr. Smith something like "hey, I love your tie!" are simple things that mean so much to other people. When we're being appreciative about beautiful things around us and other people, we also become beautiful to them.

*When you're willing to accept change and go through the process of self improvement, it doesn't mean that everyone else is. The world is a place where people of different values and attitude hang out. Sometimes, even if you think you and your best
friend always like to do the same thing together at the same time, she would most likely decline an invitation for self improvement.

We should always remember that there's no such thing as 'over night success'. Its always a wonderful feeling to hold on to the things that you already have now, realizing that those are just one of the things you once wished for. A very nice quote says that "When the student is ready, the teacher will appear." We are all here to learn our lessons. Our parents, school teachers, friends, colleagues, officemates, neighbors%u2026 they are our teachers. When we open our doors for self improvement, we increase our chances to head to the road of success.

Genuine Happiness Comes from Within

Life isn't the sweetest candy. Sometimes, when I feel like the world is just too heavy, I look around and find people who continued to live fascinating and wonderful lives. And then thoughts come popping into my mind like bubbles from nowhere - "How did their life become so adorably sweet? How come they still can manage to laugh and play around despite a busy stressful life?" Then I pause and observed for awhile%u2026 I figured out that maybe, they start to work on a place called 'self'.

So, how does one become genuinely happy?

Step 1 is to love yourself.

My theology professor once said that "loving means accepting." To love oneself means to accept that you are not a perfect being, but behind the imperfections must lie a great ounce of courage to be able to discover ways on how to improve your
repertoire to recover from our mistakes.

Genuine happiness also pertains to contentment. When you are contented with the job you have, the way you look, with your family, your friends, the place you live in, your car, and all the things you now have - truly, you know the answer to the question "how to be genuinely happy."

When we discover a small start somewhere from within, that small start will eventually lead to something else.
But if you keep questioning life it has never done you any good, you will never be able to find genuine happiness.

I believe that life is about finding out about right and wrong, trying and failing, wining and losing. These are things that happen as often as you inhale and exhale. Failure, in a person's life has become as abundant and necessary as air. But this should not hinder us from becoming happy.

How to be genuinely happy in spite all these? I tell you%u2026 every time you exert effort to improve the quality of life and your being, whether it is cleaning up your room, helping a friend, taking care of your sick dog, fail on board exams and trying again, life gives you equivalent points for that.

Imagine life as a big score board like those which are used in the NFLs. Every time you take a step forward, you make scoring points. Wouldn't it be nice to look at that board at the end of each game and think to yourself "Whew! I got a point today.
I'm glad I gave it a shot.", instead of looking at it all blank and murmur "Geez, I didn't even hit a score today. I wish I had the guts to try out. We could have won!" and then walk away.

Genuine happiness isn't about driving the hottest Formula 1 car, nor getting the employee of the year award, earning the highest 13th month pay, or beating the sales quota. Sometimes, the most sought after prizes in life doesn't always go to the fastest, the strongest, the bravest or not even the best. So, how do you become genuinely happy? Every one has his own definition of 'happiness'. Happiness for a writer may mean launching as much best selling books as possible. Happiness for a
basketball rookie may mean getting the rookie of the year award. Happiness for a beggar may mean a lot of money. Happiness for a business man may mean success. So, really now, how do we become genuinely happy? Simple. You don't have to have the best things in this world. Its about doing and making the best out of every single thing. When you find yourself smiling at your own mistake and telling your self "Oh, I'll do better next time", you carry with you a flame of strong will power to persevere
that may spread out like a brush fire. You possess a willingness to stand up again and try - that will make you a genuinely happy person.

When you learn to accept yourself and your own faults. You pass step 1 in the project "how to become genuinely happy". For as long as you know how to accept others, you will also be accepted. For as long as you love and know how to love, you will receive love ten folds back.

Smiling is infectious!

I came across this lovely little poem yesterday that I had to share with you. Apparently it was discovered on the wall of a doctor's office in England -

Smiling is infectious,
You catch it like the flu.
When someone smiled at me today
I started smiling, too.

I passed around the corner,
And someone saw my grin,
When he smiled, I realized
I'd passed it on to him.

If you feel a smile begin
Don't leave it undetected,
Let's start an epidemic
And get the world infected!
