The Spiritual Way
When we walk a spiritual path, it is full of highs and lows. The importance of having like minded people to share it with can not be underestimated. I found this quote recently and it really touched me. “A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart, and sings it back to you, when you have forgotten how it goes.” Life, can be likened to a fast flowing river. The conditions the...

Learning To Listen
I recently read a quote that really made me think, it said… ” Listen! Or your tongue will make you deaf. ” Cherokee saying. I do believe we often forget that the ‘art of communicating’ is a two way street. Being able to articulate and speak well purely in itself is not enough. How often have we had a long conversation with someone that has left us feeling very...

Inner Balance
It is often said that there is strength in numbers, many souls standing together in unity. This same analogy could be used with regard to ourselves. By bringing your internal self together, into balance and harmony. When someone experiences conflict within themselves, the results can be disastrous. For a clouded mind cannot see clearly, emotions unrestrained like a riderless horse, galloping ahead...

WRITEFROMTHEHEART: ― Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray,... →
yengyong: “People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that’s what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life. A true soul mate is probably the most…

Duality
Over the last week or so, the word ‘Duality’ has come up in different media forms and also in books I have read. Because this word kept ‘popping’ up, it made me think. I thought, what does this word mean to me. So I decided to write about it and this is where my thoughts took me. I’d like to share them with you. Duality, to me represents division, or an inner pull in...

The Inner Journey
I read this passage recently, from the book ‘Living Magically’ by Gill Edwards. I would like to share it with you. “When the god’s created Heaven and Earth, according to an old Eastern story. They were left with just one problem; Where to hide TRUTH. They did not want it to be too obvious, since observing the search, would provide them with great amusement. One god...

An Awakened Spirit
Humility and selfless love are the signs of an awakened spirit. Part of having an awakened spirit is the eagerness to learn, understand, and work for the well being of not only ones self but of others as well. Pride and arrogance are not really marks of a good person to begin with and even less so in a person with an awakened spirit. The same thing goes with unconditional love. With an awakened...

Alchemy is a precursor to modern chemistry which was widely practiced all over the world through the 1800s, when more modern chemistry began to displace it. This discipline involved a study of the chemical properties of various substances, with a mystical bent. The main principle being to transform ordinary base metals into Gold. Spiritual alchemy, can be likened to this, as in transforming the...

Going Into The Cave
Have you ever wanted to shut out the world and retreat into a warm, dark, safe place. A place where there are no demands on your time, no emotional influences from others, a place of perfect peace. I believe there comes a point in persons life when they need a sacred space such as this. A place where they can be undisturbed, still and tranquil. A place where they can rest their minds, their...

The Cherry Blossom Tree
I have always loved the Cherry Blossom Tree’s, and at this time of the year, they can be seen in their full resplendent glory. From the deepest pinks to the palest whites with tips of pink, they are breathtakingly beautiful. For me, the feelings this tree evoked, was more then just an appreciation of its beauty, but it touched something deeply inside that transcended the visual and became a...

The Treasure Of The Heart
Human beings are always striving to improve themselves. It is not just a social imperative, but comes from a inner sense of always feeling there is something else we should be doing with our lives, or doing what we do better. Or as that old adage says, we think that ‘the grass, is always greener on the other side’. Adding to the sense of discontent with what they have. People rarely...

Our Children
On Children Kahlil Gibran Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself. They come through you but not from you, And though they are with you yet they belong not to you. You may give them your love but not your thoughts, For they have their own thoughts. You may house their bodies but not their souls, For their souls dwell in the...

Believe In Yourself
If you want to succeed, you’ve got to believe; and most importantly in yourself. You more then anyone else in this world deserves to be happy. In the words of Alan Cohen  “Wouldn’t it be powerful if you fell in love with yourself so deeply that you would do just about anything if you knew it would make you happy? This is precisely how much life loves you and wants you to nurture...

The Soul And Intuition
I believe that our soul is constantly sending us information to help us along our spiritual path. Intuition is one of our inborn tools the soul uses to relay messages to us. Intuitive messages can come as a sudden “knowing,” gut feelings, thoughts, images, emotions, or bodily sensations. Intuition is a powerful source of information, creativity, and inspiration. When we follow our...

Finding happiness is the number one feeling we all seek as human beings. It is more important than money, health, or relationships. Without happiness, it is unlikely that you are even able to enjoy and appreciate those things. This is one of my favourite quotes. “Happiness, is when what you think and what you say and what you feel, are in harmony,” Mahatma Gandhi. It makes perfect...

In The Company Of Angels
A small voice, rising from within, asking for guidance and vision to help this soul on its journey. Inner struggles, turmoil, culminating to the point when it realises the futility of struggle, lets itself grow quiet. From above, a dancing shimmer of light gently descends. enveloping the supplicant, in a warm enveloping blanket of love and healing. Invisible hands gently stroke the troubled...

The Meaning Of Dreams
Are dreams some strange, mysterious phenomenon  that spontaneously happen on the night shift of life? Or is there some deeper meaning behind this universal experience? Throughout recorded history, humankind has valued the dream. A source of guidance, inspiration, prophecy, prediction and problem solving. Dreams are a common experience to us all. They know no boundaries, between young and old,...
