We have always known that the creative forces which have put this physical universe in place were beyond definition .... so awesome ... beyond understanding ....... but regardless, we have always tried to contemplate the nature of it.

What is the purpose of our lives?
Why do we humans exist as individual beings? Our "meaning and purpose" is being alive and directly experiencing life and the awe of nature from the perspective of an individual being. We do this by directly living in our sense world of seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting and touching. (has been called absorption in the one)… Continue reading What is the purpose of our lives?
Oceanic Awareness as an explanation for everything which Exists
Is there a system in everything we see?Scientists fear this question, because if they say yes, then the religion folks jump on them and say that the system is some sort of intelligent design(er).... ie. Some sort of god. So, instead they (not all of them, but as a group) lean away from admitting that… Continue reading Oceanic Awareness as an explanation for everything which Exists
Eternalogue……….
Trying to prove a set of scriptures right or wrong is really wasting the precious time we have on this earth. All i see happening here is confirmation bias. The Christians are exaggerating their “proofs”, and ignoring the facts which do not fit with what they believe…. all of which gives the non-Christians ammunition in… Continue reading Eternalogue……….

How the Mind holds on to (clings to) clouds of dis-satisfaction
I think, generally, we are looking for several things from our life. We all wish to experience satisfaction and peace of mind, we wish to be energized and have a sense of direction, we wish to feel balanced, and we wish to sense fullness and warmth. All else is “life contents”and comes and goes..... Instead… Continue reading How the Mind holds on to (clings to) clouds of dis-satisfaction
Our Anchor
Our anchor.... is the root or grounding, deep inside ourselves, that provides safe harbour to us at all times, and especially in times of turmoil. It is our birthright, bestowed on us by Life (many see it as the breath of the Spirit of God). This root never leaves us nor forsakes us. This is… Continue reading Our Anchor
Balance … Lack of Balance
i keep reminding myself...... of the importance of balance.... Balance stems from a sense of completeness, leading to a healthy mind. Life's circumstances cannot ever provide us with balance, or a sense of completeness. Balance comes after we learn how to deal with all our inner boogeymen, and realize that we are born with "inner… Continue reading Balance … Lack of Balance
