I happened to watch your debate on if Satan exists. I found it very interesting. Although I am a devoted Christian. I wanted to understand your stance of this. I think that u were trying to let people realize that when we are conditioned to believe in negativity as far as Satan, that it gives people the excuse to blame for the negativity instead of looking at ourselves and believing instead of taking responsibility for our own spirituality instead of trying to just believing that we can find spirituality in just one’s belief. If this is not correct I would really like to know your true meaning of this. I thought your debate was so interesting and I would really like to understand.
Words in meditation
I have been meditating regularly. This is a relatively new routine for me; within the last year. I often begin my routine meditation by listening to the Soul of healing meditations and continue with silent meditation afterward. I try follow this protocol once each day.
I have been able to reach the silent space and sit with no thoughts. I do find, however, that at that silent time a word or theme will present to me. This does not always happen, but does frequently enough for notation. Interestingly, the word of phrase will repeat in subsequent meditation sittings until I give it attention in my waking state. i.e. Look up its meaning etc.
I am Canadian and not of Indian descent, however the words given to me are often not specifically familiar to me, when I receive them.
I thought I would share some of these words in the order they were received. It is often one word per sitting. It may also involve pictures or other more personal themes:
– Prana
– Gita
– Veda
– Sita
Just curious as to your thoughts on such happenings?
I have so many questions on this journey and often find it can be a lonely path to find others to share what is occurring through the changes and events with deep meditation.
Letting Go of Intention
I have been trying to manifest my desires and getting nowhere. I have always believed in positive thinking and last year read the law of attraction and thought that took positive thinking a step further. I can’t get it to work for me. I have tried to keep my thoughts on what I am trying to manifest and not be discouraged because it is not happening. Then I discovered your web site and now one of your books “The Book of Secrets” and you believe in ‘letting go’. I just don’t get this. I am trying to manifest my desires by keeping my intention clear and foremost in my mind. If I let it go and give it up to the Universe, have I not just given up on my desires? I can’t connect this to concepts in my mind and I don’t know how to let go. Can you clarify this for me?
Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil
I have another question. Tree of Knowledge in Christianity: So Adam and Eve symbolically eat the fruit from the Tree of Knowledge and then they saw they were naked. Since I was a young girl I have been searching for Truth. I equate truth with knowledge. Then this new thought came to me yesterday… we ate from the Tree of Knowledge. So, does this mean that there is something even larger beyond the Tree of Knowledge? That knowledge (concrete truth of being) is only an aspect of who our Creator is or who we are?
The Law of Detachment
The 6th spiritual Law of Success, Law of detachment seems to be a tough concept for me to grasp. Does Law of Detachment mean you submit your desire to the universe and just trust it to manifest. Or does it mean that what your desire should not define who you are. For example, if you want a car, you should not think that without this car your happiness will not be fulfilled. Instead you should believe without any doubt in your heart and soul that the universe will manifest this car for you in some way.
