The Promised Day

Tuesday, July 31st, 2007

By Oraea Varis Dear Friend, If you have found me, then perhaps, like me, you have realized that its time now for something really big to happen. Maybe you realize its time to relinquish every little stash of hold you still have on your world. Maybe you are afraid to let go or simply dont know how. Maybe, as I did, you need a miracle. You have come to the right place. Let me tell you a little story. I had been a BahaI for almost 25 years watching and waiting, like you, for the signs of an imminent promise made by Bahaullah: The Day of a great awakening and the ingathering of all the tribes, religions, and peoples of the earth under the banner of the Most Great Peace. After all, isnt this the Promised Day! When is it going to happen? He says: “This is the Day that hath been illumined by the effulgent light of the Countenance of God–the Day when the Tongue of Grandeur is calling aloud: The Kingdom is God’s, the Lord of the Day of Resurrection. Yes, someday this celebrated Most Great Peace would come. I had this event placed in a far distant future, most probably not within my own lifetime. Certainly, world problems and conditions seemed to indicate that a long rough road lay ahead. Still, I was comforted, for a while, by His personal promise to me of peace and happiness through the following of His Laws and guidance. He has assured all of humanity that each individual now has access to heights of enlightenment that never before have been available. Yet, in my life and my relationships and especially within my Bahai community I did not feel at ease or successful (let alone enlightened). Something seemed still so terribly wrong with the whole thing and me. I dared not even see the extent to which everyone seemed preoccupied, fake, dead and I was dead too, and afraid most of the time. My life did not work; nothing made any sense. Enlightenment was something to be read about, drooled over at Sufi poetry sessions, but not quite ever getting beyond the glimpse phase with me personally. Maybe someday, I would vainly sigh. And then, I started to realize that if the trend of incremental progress I seemed to be making continued, then that meant I might never have this longed for state. Or, finally, when I died, I could go to the Abha paradise. This was just simply unacceptable! Trying harder seemed to be somehow actually working against me. So that was out. I just couldnt do it and realized I never would be able to get there. Thats when I became desperate and willing enough to ask for total help. I knew it would take a miracle to dust me off! Through a miraculous series of encounters with what I can only call holy beings and the mercy of my Creator, I was made aware of a perspicacious parallel view of reality that has shown me that all of these promised events are available to me (and to anyone who so desires) at all times and in all circumstances, here and now. In fact, the promise of the Peace of God can only be available here and now because that is the condition of the Kingdom eternity. Eternity means there is no time. Time, of course, as any quantum scientist will tell you is a construct of our human intellect in an attempt to organize and sequence events. Dear Ones, we have only just barely nicked the tip of the iceberg! How vast is the new terrain now available to us to explore because of the fresh infusion made available by this most recent Manifestation of God Bahaullah, the Glory of God, our liberator and redeemer! He is here! Havent you always wanted to be able to fly? Those souls that, in this day, enter the divine kingdom and attain everlasting life, although materially dwelling on earth, yet in reality soar in the realm of heaven. Their bodies may linger on earth but their spirits travel in the immensity of space. For as thoughts widen and become illumined, they acquire the power of flight and transport man to the kingdom of God. (Abdul-Baha, SWAB 173.1) Can this happen for you now? Yes, yes, yes! In fact, in this one paragraph many clues are hidden. First, your reality is not your body. Second, you can attain eternal life in this day. Third, when this happens you will experience flight and go straight to Heaven and fourth, this all has something to do with your mind. I am here to tell you this is happening to me. I am awake within this dream and am remembering (myself as one with) God. This is a completely different experience to the old-world, day to day existence I once called my life. I have received miracles through the grace of God and through relationships with those whose minds have been trained through a most astonishing document: A Course in Miracles, (a training manual for the mind). A miracle doesnt, by the way, mean works of wonder or marvels witnessed in outward forms. In this sense, a miracle is a perceptual shift that restores your inherent faculties as a creation of God. You are the Kingdom of Heaven. .Any movement animated by love moveth from the periphery to the centre, from space to the Day-Star of the universe. Perchance thou deemest this to be difficult, but I tell thee that such cannot be the case, for when the motivating and guiding power is the divine force of magnetism it is possible, by its aid, to traverse time and space easily and swiftly. Glory be upon the people of Bah (Abdul-Baha, SWAB 166.1) More clues about flight: 1) Somehow, through love, whats out there can come in here and I can get from time-space to Heaven. 2) This is not hard. 3) Maybe I am created to be irresistibly attracted to God and, 4) His magnetic force will help me totally and fastmaybe even in the twinkling of an eye. Dearest friend, we need each other. It cannot be done alone. Nor can it be done without Gods supreme assistance. Peace is acquired through forgiveness. Forgiveness is an art. The mind must be trained to the action of forgiveness, which accesses the miracle. This training is a required course; only the time you take it is elective. I am inviting you to NOW, here, with me. You call me, I answer. Thats how it works. Its that easy. No charge, no gimmick, guaranteed satisfaction. You see I need you as much as you need me. Its a win-win situation. You have nothing to lose (except misery and death). Want to? The Unity of Mankind–Kingdom of Heaven on Earth–Most Great Peace is simply your own direct experience, moment by moment, of yourself as unified with everyone and everything and offering your love and light through the forgiveness of your own illusions of separation. You are the light of the world. Abdul-Baha, Bahaullahs son and the exemplar of His Faith said this over eighty years ago: O ye beloved of the Lord! This day is the day of union, the day of the ingathering of all mankind. Verily God loveth those who, as though they were a solid wall, do battle for His Cause in serried lines! (Quran, 61:4) Note that He saith in serried linesmeaning crowded and pressed together, one locked to the next, each supporting his fellows. To do battle, as stated in this sacred verse, doth not, in this greatest of all dispensations, mean to go forth with sword and spear, but rather weaponed with pure intent, with righteous motives, with counsels helpful and effective, with godly attributesqualities of heaven. Whensoever holy souls, drawing on the powers of heaven, shall arise with such qualities of the spirit, and march in unison, rank on rank, every one of those souls will be even as one thousand, and the surging waves of that mighty ocean will be even as the battalions of the Concourse on high. What a blessing that will be–when all shall come together, even as once separate torrents, rivers and streams, running brooks and single drops, when collected together in one place will form a mighty sea. And to such a degree will the inherent unity of all prevail, that the traditions, rules, customs and distinctions in the fanciful life of these populations will be effaced and vanish away like isolated drops, once the great sea of oneness doth leap and surge and roll.(Abdul-Baha, SWAB, p 260) There are many such references to these beings, these holy souls who will appear at some future time and will guide all humanity in some specialized way. What if that moment not only approaches, but is, in fact, right in our midst. What if, this association of souls doesnt look like anything you might have expected? This begins to get at the reason I have joined with others who, like me, have chosen God above all else. God is Real! His promise is Real. Jump in. You will get over your objections, fears and ego issues and march rank on rank in unison becoming the sea. It is a Divine Promise. The glory rests upon you, and God’s mercy, and God’s blessings. I love you with all my heart. Oraea is a Teacher of A Course In Miracles. Share the vision of International Day of Peace.

Dating Tips - Use Your Friends

Monday, July 30th, 2007

By Francesca Francis Having friends is a valuable gift that must be cherished on a daily basis. Im not talking only about your best friends, the ones you call when youre in trouble, or when you need to share your deepest thoughts and fears, Im talking also about your buddies, your colleagues, your acquaintances, and all these people you might enjoy hanging out with once in a while. How does this relate to dating?Well, once you are out in the singles market, these people become an important asset, you should start looking at them not only as your friends but also as your free dating services. Not only that one of them may be single and suitable for your exact desires, but also each and every one of them have their own circle of friends in which there are certainly other singles who are looking for someone like you to have a relationship with. There are two ways of accomplishing this the first way is the direct way, which means literally asking your friends to be the matchmakers and set you up on a date with one of their friends. The second option is starting to hang out with these friends and hopefully through their group hangouts (birthdays, holiday parties, etc.) you will get familiarized with their goods. The main disadvantage of the group hangouts method is that it might seem abit odd if youll start tagging along to every party with one of your colleagues to whom you never said nothing but hello. Also it will take longer for you to get to know all of the new friends and find out who is single and suitable for you. These problems may be easily solved if you directly approach your friend and simply ask him her if they can set you up on a date with someone. The main disadvantages of the direct way are of course making your friend feeling very uncomfortable, not having anyone to set you up with, or maybe not wanting to The second disadvantage is that it wouldnt work. Instead of having to avoid your friend for the rest of your life, make sure you dont say or do anything inappropriate during the date that may insult your date or your friend, and remember that the person you went out with is not your friend and that its not his her fault it didnt work out. On the contrary feel grateful that friend was thoughtful enough to set you up with somebody and caring for you private life and happiness. The main advantage of dating a friends friend is the flow of information. You no longer have to torment yourself after the date, pondering whether he she liked you, when to call and what to do next. One phone call and youll have a familiar voice answering all the questions you have. You have to remember, of course, that it goes in both directions, and that every impression you had is immediately passed to the other side. This convenience may be excellent in the early stages, when communication is doomed to be lacking and problematic. But if the relationship succeeds and you go on dating, you have to cease the informing duty of your mutual friend, and concentrate in creating your own and healthy means of communication. Summing up dating through friends is the safest way when it comes to the person you date with, but its the most risky way when it comes to your personal loss. The idea is to understand that when you are dating someone, the dynamics will always be different from the one you have with your friends, and you shouldnt blame you friend for trying. On the other hand, if it succeeds, not only youll have the joy of having a wonderful relationship, but also Im sure you will make your friend very proud of his her matchmaking skills!

Weight Loss Tips For Men

Thursday, July 26th, 2007

By Patricia Zelkovsky Have you noticed the ratio between weight loss TV ads for men vs. women? Fitness programs notwithstanding, weight loss commercials are geared more toward women, while “pumping iron” engage the male audience. Perhaps it is because men have greater muscle to fat ratio than women, therefore, and can burn more calories. Or, is it that as a society, we place more importance on womens attitude toward food; whereas mens interpretation of food is neither good nor bad. There is weight loss information for men, however, despite where you stand on the debate. A balanced diet including protein, carbohydrates, fats, fruits and vegetables, combined with regular exercise will result in healthy and sustainable weight loss for men. While men and dieting used in the same context seems like an oxymoron, the truth is men cannot diet the same way women can. They need more calories than women, thus more emphasis would be placed on an exercise regimen more than a full out diet program. For men, a caloric intake should include a balanced nutritional diet which excludes fast foods; but includes fish, vegetables, lean steaks and pasta. However because alcohol contributes to abdominal fat in men, it increases their risk of diseases such as coronary heart disease, diabetes and high blood pressure. Therefore, the most important element in proper dieting for men is to eliminate alcohol. As stated earlier, beer contains as much fat as a martini and increases belly fat. In addition, men tend to store fat around their middle as opposed to women who typically store fat around the pelvic area, hips, butt and thighs. Stress is a very high factor in weight gain for men. Financial and work-related pressures are attributed to high stress levels. Men want to feel in control, therefore, any pressure is accompanied by habits such as over-indulgence in food and drink. In addition, men produce a hormone called cortisol, which stimulates fat storage around the abdomen, thus leading to increased incidents of heart disease. Physical exercise can help reduce weight, and provide a more stable and healthier body, but it takes a great deal of effort. While men may insist there isn’t enough time in the day; it is to their benefit to make the time to relieve the stress by engaging in physical exercise. Begin with a more balanced diet which includes: protein such as lean meats, fish, chicken, turkey, eggs; carbohydrates such as pasta, rice, bread, potatoes; fats such as oil, nuts and seeds; fruits and vegetables. Never eat unless you are hungry. Eating simply out of habit or boredom will not help you to slim down. Exercise will burn off calories, keep you fit, and toned. It also increases your metabolic rate which allows you to lose weight easier. When you reach weight goal; reward yourself.

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Photorejuvenation And Photodynamic Therapy

Tuesday, July 17th, 2007

By Alex Kaplan Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) was developed in the 1980s for the treatment of photo-damaged skin. Unlike laser devices that use a single wavelength of light, IPL uses a xenon flashlamp to generate intense pulses of broadband light at very high energy. Filters are used in the IPL device to restrict the actual wavelengths that are emitted. Thus, various IPLs have been developed with a range of filters depending on the application that the machine is used for. For instance, a filter that lets out light of a shorter wavelength would be expected to treat melanin in sunspots, while a longer wavelength filter would let through light that would tend to heat collagen and penetrate more deeply to stimulate collagen remodeling. IPL has gained great popularity through its application for the photofacial. This is generally a quick and relatively painless office procedure. Patients with sun damage in the form of sun spots / age spots, abnormal redness and sallow skin tone stand to benefit the most from the treatment. Additionally there are benefits for superficial wrinkles and other textural problems. Unlike lasers that are used for skin resurfacing, such as the CO2 laser, IPL is better tolerated and has fewer side effects. Typically it is administered as a series of 4-6 treatments with incremental results from each visit. Common side effects include redness and roughness of the skin that may last up to a week. Contrast this with treatments by lasers used for resurfacing, such as the CO2, that can leave denuded skin that requires prolonged healing and carry a higher risk of scarring. As with other lasers that target melanin, darker-skinned patients are not good candidates for IPL. The increased baseline melanin in darker skin creates a stronger background target for the light and increases the risk of a burn. If the skin is too dark, then the therapeutic window may be too narrow to expect good results. An ideal candidate is one who is fair-skinned but who has significant photodamage, usually from years of sun exposure. More recently, a novel approach to facial rejuvenation has arisen that combines light sources, such as IPL, with photosensitizers that increase the effect of the light. This is termed photodynamic therapy. The most commonly available photosensitizer in the US is 5-amino levulinic acid (5-ALA). 5-ALA was previously described with the use of a light source for treatment of actinic keratoses on the face. Subsequently, it was shown that 5-ALA could be combined with IPL to increase the effectiveness of photorejuvenation. This showed significantly increased benefit for fine lines and pigmentation. 5-ALA is applied to the skin for at least 30 minutes prior to the procedure and allowed to soak in. After treatment with IPL, the patient may experience more redness and scaling than with IPL alone. Furthermore, strict sun avoidance and protection is required for 48 hours since the 5-ALA remains within the skin and can increase redness and discomfort if the skin is exposed to sunlight. Also, commercially available 5-ALA, marketed as Levulan Kerastick, costs approximately $100 per application. On the other hand, the increased effectiveness of photodynamic therapy makes the addition of 5-ALA an attractive option. Further research is constantly being pursued in this popular area of laser and light source technology. Already, companies have combined additional technologies with IPL. Syneron, for instance, has added bipolar radiofrequency with the idea of enhancing the IPLs effect. Aesthera, has combined suction with broad-band light to increase effectiveness. Watch for future developments in this exciting arena. tattoomdla.comdkskinsolutions.com Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/?expert=Alex_Kaplan http://EzineArticles.com/?Intense-Pulsed-Light-(IPL)-Photorejuvenation-And-Photodynamic-Therapy&id=506563 medicare how supplement at online some quotes their short an term her health to insurance most quotesindex each shtml up blue the cross since blue between shield if tv see commercial another alabama if blue on cross at and if blue such shield must open our enrollment by

What Therapy Is Best For Depression And Stress

Sunday, July 15th, 2007

By Adrian Whittle Depression and stress are used in everyday language to such an extent that it could be forgiven for not seeing them as a serious mental health condition. Terms like ‘oh, he’s just a bit stressed out’ or ‘ I’m depressed because my football team lost on the weekend’ do not reflect true mental health problems. They are temporary and event driven. This article will outline what clinical depression is and the best therapy to deal with it. Clinical depression (sometimes known as major depression, major depressive disorder or simply depression) is a feeling of sadness, being down or lack of optimism that is not brought about by an external stimulus or event. Clinical means observed, so it becomes clinical when it is not self-diagnosed but is diagnosed by the observation of a qualified medical practitioner. Clinical depression will last longer than 2 weeks and will require some form of clinical or pharmacological treatment or both. The most effective treatment for clinically diagnosed depression is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). CBT concerns talking through the patients problems. This could take the form of sessions with a qualified counsellor or in a group situation that is facilitated by a qualified person. The objective of these sessions is to change how the person thinks (Cognitive) and how they behave (Behavioural). The problems discussed are always current or imminent problems. The therapy is to help change the behaviour related to these problems than dealing with any problems in the past, like a poor upbringing or abused childhood for example. The underlying tenet behind this therapy is that external events do not create our emotional states. It is the thoughts that we have towards these events that shape our emotional lives. For example, a person that is clinically depressed might have a completely irrational thought that everybody hates them. This might be reinforced because a person walking past them ignores them. Cognitive Behavioural therapy would look at why the person feels that everybody hates them. The therapy would work at changing this thought by highlighting it’s irrationality. By changing the thought the actions of the person would be different and they would realise that the person ignores everybody that they walk past. CBT has proved to be very effective in combating depression. It helps the patient to understand that they create their emotional state rather than other things or people. The therapy gives them a method to use should depression re-occur. It is often used in conjunction with some form of anti-depressant medication. One potential problem with CBT is that is relies on the patient cooperating with the therapy and working as hard as the counsellor to resolve problems. This might not be possible if the patient does not believe they are depressed or that they are responsible for the depression.

It includes sections on the definition of stress and common symptoms of stress.

How to Communicate in his Love Language

Saturday, July 14th, 2007

By Peter Murphy Are you wondering how to communicate with that new man in your life? Or maybe you are just wondering about the next man in your life? New or old, its never too late to learn how to communicate in the language of love. Maybe youve seen the tomboyish girl that somehow has men flocking around her. If you stopped turning green with envy for a moment, youd notice why she was a man magnet. She just sort of fit herself into him, like a piece of a jigsaw puzzle that he didnt even know was missing. Instead of rolling your eyes at that dazed and happy-in-love look he has on his face, why not look into how she did it? Learn these tips on how to communicate in a whole new way by getting to know his love language and speaking it fluently! We all know that love is built on the solid foundation of communication. When we are in love we are on the same page as our lover. Its a special level of communication that people in love have. Some call it chemistry, but really, in order to even get to the chemistry stage you need to know his love language. For a clue as to what that might be, we need to understand how he relates to the world around him. Everyone perceives their world with three senses - sight, sound and feelings. Psychologists have discovered that even though we use all three senses, one of these senses is always more pronounced. It doesnt mean that it replaces the others, but if you pay attention, the more dominant one will reveal itself to you. Asking questions is the easiest and fastest way to learn his language and since asking questions is the most common way to get to know someone or start a conversation, hell never suspect. Hes just returned from a business trip. You ask about his trip. Pay attention to his answer: 1. If hes visual he might say: the weather was terrible. I didnt get to see the sun once! 2. An auditory guy will talk about sounds: we got the account, which was good. But the hotel I stayed at was too noisy. 3. He is a feeler if he answers something like: I have to admit; Im not much into traveling alone. I get lonely when I visit new places. Knowing a mans love language is the key in how to communicate with him in a way that will make him feel that you are the missing piece to his puzzle. Youll just fit. Of course, one question isnt going to tell you. Youll have to watch for a pattern to emerge. Once you do find the prominent sense, youll want to speak his language. Talking with your visual man will be all about what you saw on the way over, while the auditory fellow will want to know about the new CD you just bought. It doesnt matter what your love language is. As long as you know how to communicate to him in his Love Language youll soon be the envy of all the other girls. That is, unless you tell them your secret. Peter Murphy is a peak performance expert. He recently produced a very popular free report: 10 Simple Steps to Developing Communication Confidence.
