The Law of Opposites is unavoidable in our world. It simply states that for everything, its opposite must also exist.

How To Know Which Emotions Are Real

15 November 2011

If you tell someone they are stupid and insult them, different people will react differently. Some will take it personally and feel bad, others will get aggressive and reply in kind.  However, if you give anyone love and positive emotions, everyone will react the same.  There are always exceptions, but three headed twins are rare [...]

Stress and the Flow of Nature

26 August 2011

Every machine has natural limitations, its individual capacity. When it is stretched beyond its capacity, it will be stressed. Please bear in mind for this talk that the word Stress is meant like stretched to its maximum. No machine exists that is a whole unit. All machines are a sum of parts. A machine does [...]

The Need Of Companionship, The Joy of Companionship, I Think, Therefore I Am

25 July 2011

The buddha said that what keeps us reincarnating is our need to be recognized, we want to exist and live eternally. The greatest pain for a human is to be totally alone, or even to feel totally alone, that there is no one with any wisdom you could turn to to help, take care, or [...]

A Prince On The Garbage Dump

In many mystical teachings there is a common thought which, if you think about it, may help you get a better grip on your life. Here are a few different lines, read each one on its own, and then see how they all come together like pieces of a jigsaw: * God created all creatures [...]

Suffering, The Cause Of Suffering, And The End Of Suffering

11 July 2011

Buddha said that life is suffering and that the cause of suffering is desire. That is a very clear and obvious truth. If I desire something, that means I do not have it, and if I want or need something that I do not have, that craving for it does imply suffering to some degree. [...]

How to End Pain and Be Happy

6 July 2011

Many people who believe in karma (the law of cause and effect in respect to previous incarnations if you believe in that) have the concept that the negative situations that happen to them are a type of karmic debt. That somehow they deserve whatever bad things have befallen them, either in business, or in relationships. [...]

Fitting In And Feeling Out Of Place

2 June 2011

One of the many drawbacks to western culture is the lack of involvement and devotion on a deeply personal level to anything or anyone. When I was in Cambodia I spent a few days with a group from Singapore who was there as a charity project bringing cloths and supplies to the poor. There is [...]

A Shocking And Disturbing Reality About Low Self-Esteem

27 May 2011

People will never change if they think they are alright. This is simply logical, why put in effort to fix what is not broken. We must see and realize that it is NOT alright to accept anything and everything. To accept mediocrity and negativity negates the possibility of progress. This applies to being short changed [...]

How Making Decisions Relates To Depression And Happiness

How To Make Life Roll Smoothly In Perfect Control

16 May 2011

For a bike wheel to roll smoothly, all the spokes must be strong and well connected. They connect to the hub. The hub is the central point of the wheel and connects to the axel. As I discovered by my own experience, when one spoke out of the 20 on my bike wheel broke, the [...]

Human Love And Mystical Love

10 May 2011

In this world everything must have its opposite to exist. Therefore, human (temporal) love prevents mystical realization because to have human love means its opposite must exist which is negative emotions. Negative emotions are what prevent pure mystical love. This is why I say that mystical or real love is nothing at all like human [...]

The Eleventh Hour

24 February 2011

I have found that there is a repeating theme, things that are reliant on something out of my control and must be done by a certain deadline, get done just in time. It generally applies to things in which I had no control, such as something I want to sell. I have to wait until [...]

I Didn’t Mean That, ‘Emotional Containment’

1 February 2011

Many times people, in the heat of the moment, will say something, and then quickly upon realizing that it was inappropriate, try to stuff the words back in their mouth pleading that they did not mean that or they were just joking. The problem is that retraction is not possible. If I asked you a [...]

Emotions Are Messages

6 December 2010

Emotions are real, there is no question of how large a part of our life they are, but here I propose that there is much more to emotions than just feelings. Emotions are really a message, rather than a feeling. They are not caused by a reaction to another person or event, rather they are [...]
