The winter solstice occurs exactly when the Earth's axial tilt is farthest away from the sun. Winter solstice lasts only an instant in time. At that time, we experience the shortest day and longest night. But from that day onward until the Summer Solstice, each day gets longer and the night gets shorter. So even […]
Festival of Lights
This year at sundown on December 1, the eight-day observance of Hanukkah begins. The spirit of Hanukkah is the remembrance of a great miracle. Nearly 200 years before the birth of Christ, a Hebrew tribe known as the Maccabees wanted to re-dedicate the temple after driving out the Greeks in a three-year struggle. It was […]
Natural Spirituality: Ways of Reconnecting – Part Two
In last week’s blog article, I discussed how we can arrive at our Source by using transcendental sound vibration and silence. When we are deep within, communing with our Natural Spirituality, we also are communing with God. It is in the silence that we become realigned with God and our own Natural Spirituality, thus watering […]
Natural Spirituality: Ways of Reconnecting – Part One
Turning within is one of the ways to begin to reconnect to your own true spirituality; that piece within that cannot be seen, heard or touched by our limited mind and senses. Silence is a vehicle that takes you within. But it’s hard to reach a place of complete silence. The mind is always chattering. […]
Natural Spirituality: The Collective
This month in the Ah-Man Newsletter, I spoke of the collective and how the collective does not want us to have our own individuality. The collective wants us to stay a part of them and not to separate. I mentioned a few collectives in my newsletter, and religion is just one of them. Religion is […]
Natural Spirituality: Individuality
There is lots of talk about individuality in today’s world but, ironically enough, that “individuality” is all centered on the ego and self-gratification…how one looks, presents him or her self, finds a career, etc. These are important. We need to live comfortably and must be able to support our families. But all of these endeavors […]
What is Prayer?
In my last blog post, I spoke about prayer. It came to me that prayer may have a negative connotation for those of us who have recovered from some type of trauma or addiction (one day at a time), and even for those of us who didn’t experience trauma or addiction (but who still would […]
Prayer
As I indicated in the October Ah-Man Newsletter, my blog discussions this month focus on expanding/improving our conscious contact with the God of our understanding. Prayer is one of the vehicles that can do just that. As with many things life, prayer took different forms to me as my life changed. Many of us first […]
Commitment
As with any relationship you have in life, once you decide you want to deepen it, you need to invest time and energy on the connection. You have to commit to spending more time than before getting to know that person or situation. If it’s a person, it might involve finding out what they like […]
Imprinting
A great way to keep yourself fit throughout your day is by using a technique that takes certain sayings and “truths” and instills them in our consciousness. This method is known as Imprinting, and it is a very simple and effective process: 1. First, choose a truth that appeals to you; a truth that you […]
