Meditation in Oneness: My presentation today is titled “Meditation in Oneness.” Oneness is why we meditate and oneness is the reason we can meditate. It all sounds too simple to be meaningful, but it is meaningful. I promise. The concept of “oneness” conveys to us the essential nature of God. Knowing that essential nature is the reason we seek to be enlightened, and it is the means by which we will become enlightened. Buddha in Oneness: When the Buddha proclaimed his enlightenment he said simply, “I am awake.” What was he awakened from? Had he just finished a long nap? Yes, in a...

Of the many meditation techniques available, the best for deep meditation is one that Edgar Cayce taught and used himself. It has been the most successful method that I have found for getting into a truly attuned-to-God state. And the side effects of this method are clearer dreams and more intuitive “knowings.” The method is simple. Sitting or lying down (if lying down Cayce wanted you to cover your solar plexus with your...

There is a huge amount of knowledge about creative thinking and manifesting increase, spreading like wild fire through books and on the internet nowadays.  These teachings are based on the discovery that our very thoughts have creative power. Many writers and philosophers are writing and promoting their views about this phenomenon.  How do we discern what is truth, and what is man-made philosophies? The study of quantum physics has lead to the formulation of the Quantum Theory and we are starting to discover the possibilities.  Scientific evidence of the behaviour of quantum particles and light...

In this article we will look at the importance of using creative thought (yes, imagination) as a God-given ability to “create” or receive what we have prayed for.  So many believers pray, but complain that they do not see results. Many discoveries on the level of quantum physics, the study of subatomic particles, proved that we influence our world with our thoughts.  No wonder that the greatest “physicist”, the Creator of the universe wrote in His Book, the Bible, “For as a man thinks in his heart, so is he.” (Pro 23:7). Our thoughts can play a powerful role in our wellbeing, health...

Many have discovered and learned the principles of creating and attracting abundance by means of creative thought with great success and achievement. It is on this level where positive thinking, positive speech and visualization find their usefulness. Many books and teachings exist on the subject of the power of positive thought and visualization, and with good reason. There is a lot of truth in the concept of creative visualization when combined with faith. Unfortunately, hidden within many of these teachings is a great and dangerous flaw that will lead to many disappointments for the spiritually...

Think about heaven; there is no illness, no treachery, no crime, no death. In fact all good things that are available there in abundance – happiness, joy and fulfillment are the qualities of heaven, and we are actually instructed to request this to be manifested in our lifes. Jesus considered this to be so important, that He instructed His disciples that this should be one of the first requests to ask for in prayer, maybe it is because the answers for this life lies in the fact that heaven should be manifested in our everyday lives, here on earth. In the Bible, Matthew 6:10, we read that Jesus...

We have unlimited capabilities as demonstrated by Jesus and by His words.  Our minds, lack of faith and understanding are the limitations we impose on ourselves.  The only thing that is standing between us and supernatural ability is our lack of spiritual understanding. But can we have it?  Peter had the momentary faith to get out of the boat and walk on water.  A logical deduction from this is that it must then be possible for man to walk on water. What prevents us from walking on water? Nothing, really! You might argue that this miracle was only possible because Jesus was present and He told...

This First lesson and any that follow are taken from Deepak Chopra’s wonderful book: The Third Jesus, for any seeking a less dogmatic approach and view of Jesus this is a must read! 1. The Kingdom of Heaven is within you. Applying the teaching—The source of reality is inside you. It is your essence. Here Jesus points the way to hidden dimensions, not simply the conventional notion of Heaven. When you go inside, you are aware of activity such as thoughts and feelings. Your instinct is to pursue the activity that brings pleasure and avoid that which brings pain. But Jesus speaks of a...

Finding out how much Jesus has to say about Karma was one of my great surprises in writing this book. The primary tenet of Karma is that every action works like a seed that sprouts and brings fruits in the form of a result. Jesus isn’t  identified with such an Eastern concept, yet he famously said, “As you sow, so shall you reap.” All he lacked was the word Karma, because throughout the four gospels we are told that every action has a consequence, either here or in Heaven. Karma is important on the spiritual path, and knowing how to act and why is important in all religions....

“Believe that you will receive” This is a valuable teaching at any level of consciousness. Assume that Jesus is telling the truth, that prayer is meant to be answered. If so, then praying can only bring one or two results: Either things go normally and your prayer brings a response, or you face some obstacle or resistance that blocks a response. Obstacles and resistance exist in consciousness and therefore can be cleared away. Instead of being a litmus test for faith, prayer shows you what you need to do on the spiritual path is to open the channels of communication. The help that Jesus...
