On Having an Idle Mind

     (This post idea came from PuzzleSolver's post called,"FOCUS if you want to be HAPPY! Oh look, Squirrel!" and the part that had made me to think even more was about the Henry Ford quote that was focused about 'having an idle mind.')

Different sides for bad situations

    It seems like there are always bad situations because let's face it that it life. However, there are always different sides to every situations to help and/or guide us through the way. If we are not too hasty to make quick decisions out of panic, worry, anger or revenge we can then be able to be still within ourselves. The "being still" is that trusting, knowing and faith you got to have deep down inside to know…

Decapitated worms can regenerate their brains, and the memories stored inside

Biologists at Tufts University have removed the head and brain of a worm by decapitation, and then watched as it regenerated both its head and brain — and, somewhat miraculously, the memories stored inside. At first…

The Supramental Yoga and the Evolutionary Process of Transformation



                    ‘All religions have saved a number

                    of souls, but none yet has been able

                    to spiritualise mankind. For that

                    there is needed not cult and creed,

                    but a sustained and all-comprehending

                    effort at spiritual self-evolution.’

Philosophy,psychology and theosophy to me.

Philosophy to me is general understanding of living and searching for truth and wisdom in the knowledge of others who are doing the same thing. Discovering where I fit in the scheme of things in this world. Identifying myself with others and becoming a part of the whole.

Psychology is what people think and why. Psychology is the discovery of ones mind, which in itself is a spiritual adventure.

And last theosophy gets me in touch with my…

My Questionable Poetry:

AS I WAIT

the urge to Create bubbles within my Chest

and these butterflies will not let me rest

AS I IMPLODE

no longer am I lost in Haze

and quickly my Eyes begin to Glaze

AS I RISE

leaving the Ignorance of my youth

and continuing this never-ending Quest for Truth

AS I GROW

trying to alleviate your Fear

and to simultaneously Disappear

AS I LOVE

holding onto the hope that you Feel me

and this Waking-Dream of being Free

THIS NEW LIFE…

General Theosophy #104

“One underappreciated advantage for Psycho-Spiritual progress in OLD AGE is probably just the possession of a nearly incontestable excuse for shifting more and more temporal work onto younger people.”—General Theosophy

Group structure.

It is said you line up ten people and give a word to the first person and when that word gets to the tenth person, it is not the original word understood. In any group endeavor it is best to have a group goal that all can understand, or even a group word or phrase explains all. I can see the group diversity focused on creating a new idea using known facts. Unless…

Once the soul awakens...

“Once the soul awakens, the search begins and you can never go back. From then on, you are inflamed with a special longing that will never again let you linger in the lowlands of complacency and partial fulfillment. The eternal makes you urgent. You are loath to let compromise or the threat of danger hold you back from striving…

RIGHT ATTITUDE & RIGHT REASONING

In our understanding of the world we stumble across a strange thing related to the Self which perplexes us to no small degree and it is the insistence on evidences or result of evidences called "proofs" before a thing is "accepted " as a fact to our limited knowledge .

If one carefully examines this phenomenal attitude of human beings we find that it stands in the way of the human being actualizing the purportedly element of the divine through transcendence by the faculty of…
