Why We Cannot Co-exist

Conscience in a very fallen way is like a barely burning coal where there used to be a raging fire of sensitivity to Yahweh. A simple definition of conscience: the inward sense of what is morally right and wrong; it carries with it the desire to do what is morally right. 

Everybody has a conscience. That's why you find compassion emphasized in Buddhism, separation from the world emphasized in Hinduism, and the golden rule in the scriptural base of almost every major positive religion. 

That's because all of us sense within ourselves that these character traits are desirable goals in just about every and any religion. After all, our conscience is still functioning. 

However, when you move into the higher realms of theology such as the nature of God, the nature of true salvation or enlightenment or the nature be human beings. These different religions take many different roads and come to many different and irreconcilable conclusions. 

So conscience is the reason that you find commonalities at the foundational base of religions where the character is the emphasis. But when you move into the higher realms of spiritual concepts, there is no compatibility.

For instance, there's no compatibility between the concept of Brahma in Hinduism which is an impersonal life force, and a concept of a personal God, Yahuah in the Bible that interacts with you in a very personal and loving way. 

Therefore one of the foundational issues one has to come to grips with as we are taught when writing a dissertation, is that truth is objectively the same for everyone. Two opposing people can never say that I can have my truth and you can have your truth and we can both be right. The sun is at the center of the solar system. Another person with an opposing idea has to be wrong to suggest that the earth is at the center of the solar system and the sun rotates it.

Nevertheless, I identify with spiritual people's passion to seek the truth because I was in the same camp for long but just because I mean to say Jesus is the only way now, it doesn't mean that I despise them when I present my thesis. I love seekers who are desperately trying to live a higher life, to go beyond materialism and a flesh-ruled lifestyle, and find something that has eternal value.

However, communion with God is impossible until we do it God's way. We can make all kinds of attempts to penetrate the spiritual world but we never will get to God until we go through the door which is Yahusha.

Rethinking Therapy Settings: Insights from "Redpill Psychology"

What can possibly be happening in the minds of men sitting in female dominated space, box of tissue at their side, with a woman saying “tell me how you feel” about this or that? Even worse, asking such probing questions with the implication that he is an empty emotional vessel in need of her redemption. Lea Winerman, a staff writer for the American Psychological Association asks us to “imagine the Marlboro man in therapy.” Imagine instead a therapy office in the boiler room of a ship, in a workshop, a park, a building site, mechanics shed or a sports locker room, with seating arrangements that allowed men to sit at 45 degree angles or side by side — engaged in some kind of task if they wished.           Imagine too if we were to engage in some kind of typical male play or industry – not just Jungian sandplay or water-color art therapies as suits the more effeminate sensibilities of women, but hands on therapy – while driving a truck, fixing the engine of a ...

Positive Relationships

Positive relationships are the cornerstone of psychological well-being and happiness. In the same way that a well-tended garden produces beautiful flowers, a well-nurtured relationship can bring joy, contentment, and fulfillment to both partners. According to research by Seligman (2018), individuals who are in positive relationships are less likely to experience depression and anxiety, and more likely to report higher levels of life satisfaction and overall happiness. To cultivate a healthy relationship, effective communication is key. Communication is like the soil in which a plant grows. Without it, a relationship can wither and die. Positive communication promotes understanding, empathy, and mutual respect. According to Johnson (2019), successful couples use positive communication techniques, such as active listening and non-judgmental validation, to strengthen their relationship. Tips for building healthy relationships include spending quality time together, expressing gratitude, a...

Prayer Mantrams and Invocations

Mystics in olden days used to say that the spark-light produced by the glow-worm would have its existence for centuries and centuries, and would float in space and expand; and that not only that light, but also every voice that is projected would continue its existence in some way. We know that nothing in the universe is lost but only transformed, transmuted into different forms and expressed again in different ways. If not an atom is lost, it means that not a single energy wave is lost; and if not a single energy wave is lost, it means that none of our emotional and mental waves are lost; and if they are not lost, they continue their good or bad effect upon human conduct and life.  When we depart from our beloved ones, we use nice expressions, such as “Good journey” or “We wish your success” or “May God be with you.” With these words we impart to them a protective aura or an inspiring wave, a source of sincere joy. It is for the same reason that so many fathers and mothers pray th...
