Are you addicted to ‘The Plug in Drug’? (By Dr Anthony Roberts)

Statistics show that 85% of North American households last year did not buy one non-fiction book. Not one! If that amazes you, here is something even more amazing. 90% of those who bought a non-fiction book did not read it! Yet during that period of time these same people spent 85 BILLION DOLLARS on movies and watched television over 6 hours a day or 42 hours a week! Now I can hear you say, “But Dr. A, that’s not true in my household”. Perhaps. But look around and add up how many hours the TV is running in the background, or you are flipping the remote “just to see what’s on”. Compare that to how much reading you do. Are you addicted to the “plug in drug”? Both men and women are highly addicted to this powerful drug. Men will often criticize women for watching TV soap operas or other mindless TV programs, but they are not immune to this drug either. Watching TV sports is the most mindless, time wasting non-activity ever conceived by man. Watching a group of men high on testosterone running around and throwing a ball and screaming at the TV for hours on end is absurd. There is nothing wrong with wanting to watch a special game or playoff, but to spend your nights and weekends watching these games is nothing short of being brain dead. The problem is we have become a nation of “watchers” instead of a nation of “doers”. We watch people entertain, play sports and do other activities but we rarely participate in these activities ourselves. It wouldn’t be so bad if you wanted to actually PLAY sports and get some exercise, but to watch others do it for hours on end is wasting thousands of hours of your life that could be used to bring you everything you truly desire. Here is my point. If you don’t have the riches you desire in your life, it is a clear indicator of how you are spending your time. I know. You need to relax, your friends are doing it, you need to know the “score”, you need to know who is winning American Idol. Get serious! Now please don’t write to me and argue the point. If you want to do it, then be my guest, but you are “watching” your life away. If you want more money, consider converting the time you watch TV -probably 40 hours or more a week -into a part time business and your income will jump through the roof. And the best part is you will break your addiction to the “plug in drug”. It’s a win-win-win.

How to tell: If I’m walking the path to ‘My Higher Purpose’ in this life?

{*Occasionally i’m sent a powerful mail that I feel obliged to share,  like this one}
Stop suffering From “False Purpose” and Start Shining Your Brilliance By Michelle L. Casto The Destiny Doctor, Soul Purpose Guide, & Author
If we face in the right direction, all we have to do is keep walking. —Buddhist Teaching
Your Innate Code: Every person has a uniquely encoded purpose and the real work of our lives is finding and living it. In my work as a purpose guide, I have come to see that a vast majority of us are either missing or mis-identifying our purpose, so much so, that it is a commonly undiagnosed malady in today’s society. In fact, I believe that depression could be lessened, even alleviated when people live authentically and boldly from their heart. The challenge comes from people not knowing if they are on the “right” path. How does one know after all? Aren’t we supposed to just find a career that pays well and give us a two week vacation every year and call it “happy.” Why should we want more than that? We want more because deep down, we know we were made for more. We live in a time where we can be and do anything. So why do we settle for less than our heart’s desires? What I have found is that we let the “mental monsters” of fear, doubt, and disbelief make our life decisions instead of the wisdom of our soul. We tend to get caught up in the busyness of the world, and then find ourselves lost in roles and responsibilities that we have long outgrown, and end up feeling trapped. We fail to see the path that would lead us to our Greatness. Or we might see it, but not believe that we could really live the life of our dreams. Unbeknownst to us, we complicate a relatively simple concept, “follow the path with heart.” Since the ego wants to be right, it will latch onto a role or position and claim that “This is IT.” The righteous self will expand a great deal of effort forcing things and situations to work, despite evidence to the contrary. So how do you know if you are moving in the direction of your destiny? Let’s first understand there are four various pathways. The first three are often constructed by your limited self, while the other, higher one, is “initiated” by your greater self. You often cannot see this option because you may have prematurely committed to one of the others (default, pseudo, or personality). I refer to the first three pathways as “Persona” purposes because they are the masks we wear to gain attention from others in life, and wearing a mask definitely falls into “false pretences,” don’t you agree? Four Levels of Purpose: Default: This level reflects the relationships or jobs that you “fall into” with little conscious choice. Pseudo: This level looks deceptively like you are on purpose but your Soul is probably not engaged, and you do it more for external motivations than internal inspirations. Personality: This level reflects who you are as a human personality, and you may have success with it, but there is still room for more Soul. Soul Purpose/Destiny: This level brings all of who you are–body, mind, and spirit into the equation. You feel called and bravely follow this path even though you are not sure where it leads. We have choice. We can “default” into “false purposes” based in the ego or lead our life from our true purpose which originates in our soul. Keep in mind, when there is “efforting” there is falseness. Where there is allowance, there is grace. And being able to discern the difference between the lower paths and your highest path is essential to succeeding in a truly Great Way. False Purposes may give you visible material results and yet leave you feeling empty or unfulfilled, like something important is missing. They keep you in “pursuit” of the next thing and never let you be at peace, feeling as if where you are is good enough. False purposes are driven by human needs to know and be in control. Most painfully, your self-expression and creativity is stifled. Your Soul Purpose Your soul purpose gives you a foundation upon which to build your greatest life and provides direction and meaning. So even when you are in the midst of change or chaos, you know that you are taken care of, provided for and headed in the right direction. Your soul purpose expands who you are and challenges you to be your best. You grow at a natural pace, unfolding and ripening in “right timing,” just like fruit on a tree. Perhaps most importantly, you are free to express your authentic self. A saying is “if you can see the path, it is not your path.” When you walk your greatness path, you often do not where it is going or how to “get there,” you just take the next step, simply following your greater guidance. Further, you cannot figure out your Purpose with your mind—that will continually have you going in circles without ever arriving at a powerful, let alone purposeful, conclusion. When you falsely think you have it all figured out, and then give yourself half-heartedly to something, suffering is sure to come, because, deep down, you feel that you have sold yourself out. Listen to Your Heart The way it works is that your Purpose is found in the heart, and it often finds you! The best thing to cure “persona-based living” is to let go of whatever does not make your heart sing. Yes, you may feel nervous and uncertain at first, but eventually you gain the clarity and confidence that comes from honoring your heart. Gently begin by letting yourself be drawn by the passions and longings in your heart and when you come to a possible path, ask these two powerful questions for “authentication purposes:” Does this path have heart? Can I give my heart to this path? Answering both of them yes, yes, yes! is a positive sign that you are headed in the right direction, the one that leads to your true reason for being and highest purpose. The benefits of following the path with heart are full self-expression, authentic happiness and yes, Success on your soul’s terms, which is as real as it gets. ***This

Does the bible say ‘money is the root of all evil’?

Yet the age is prejudiced against
advising a Christian man (or, as a Jew
would say, a godly man) from
attaining unto wealth. The prejudice is
so universal and the years are far
enough back, I think, for me to safely
mention that years ago up at Temple
University there was a young man in
our theological school who thought
he was the only pious student in that
department. He came into my office
on evening and sat down by my desk,
and said to me: “Mr. President, I think
it is my duty sir, to come in and labor
with you.” “What has happened
now?” Said he, “I heard you say at the
Academy, at the pierce School
commencement, that you thought it
was an honorable ambition for a
young man to desire to have wealth,
and that you thought it made him
temperate, made him anxious to have
a good name, and made him
industrious. You spoke to make him a
good man. Sir, I have come to tell you
the Holy Bible says that ‘money is the
root of all evil.’” I told him I had never
seen it in the Bible, and advised him
to go out into the chapel and get the
Bible, and show me the place. So out
he went for the Bible, and soon he
stalked into my office with the Bible
open, with all the bigoted pride of the
narrow sectarian, of one who founds
his Christianity on some
misinterpretation of Scripture. He
flung the Bible down on my desk, and
fairly squealed into my ear: “There it is
Mr. President; you can read it
yourself.” I said to him: “Well young
man, you will learn when you get a
little older that you cannot trust
another denomination to read the
Bible for you. You belong to another
denomination. You are taught in the
theological school, however, that
emphasis is the exegesis. Now, will
you take that Bible and read it
yourself, and give the proper
emphasis to it?”
He took the Bible, and proudly read,
“‘The love of money is the root of all
evil.’” Then he had it right, and when
one does quote aright from that same
old Book he quotes the absolute
truth. I have lived through fifty years
of the mightiest battle that old Book
has ever fought, and I have lived to
see its banners flying free; for never in
the history of this world did the great
minds of earth so universally agree
that the Bible is true-all true-as they
do at this very hour.
So I say that when he quoted right, of
course he quoted the absolute truth.
“The love of money is the root of all
evil.” He who tries to attain unto it too
quickly, or dishonestly, will fall into
many snares, no doubt about that.
The love of money. What is that? It is
making an idol of money, and idolatry
pure and simple every where is
condemned by the Holy Scriptures
and by man’s common sense. The
man that worships the dollar instead
of thinking of the purposes for which
it ought to be used, the man who
idolizes simply money, the miser that
hordes his money in the cellar, or
hides it in his staking, or refuses to
invest it where it will do the world
good, that man who hugs the dollar
until the eagle squeals has in him the
root of all evil.

…The forbidden fruit of the Garden of Eden..

As I grew up there were many explanations of what the forbidden fruit in the garden of eden was – from all corners. But no one ever pointed out what exactly it was, even spiritual leaders and why?

Promagranate/Pomegranet – from pomme garnete ie “seeded apple” or chinease apple”
Thought to be the forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden for the obvious results it creates(click to read) and used as a symbol of fertility in the bible. It’s origins traced to Middle East/Asia (Himalayas to Iran) and considered as one of the Seven fruits of Israel. Featured in Old testament and Egyptian Mythology. Carried accross deserts for it’s thirst quenching Juice.
…These [remaining letters that spell
"rimon "] are the outer shell that we
call the pomegranate, while the
inner [life-force] is the sefira of
tiferet. This is alluded to in the
verse “lest he eat it and live
forever” (Gen. 3:23, referring to
the fruit of the Tree of Life) . And so
it is said of Rabbi Meir: “He ate its
core and discarded its
shell.” (Chagigah 15b 1 ) The forces of
evil cannot suckle from the inner life
force, but they can suckle from the
garment, i.e. the pomegranate…(click here to read the full Hebrew explanation)….
Each fruit is said to contain 613 seeds, just as there are 613 good deeds(Mitzvot). Eaten on jewish new Year ‘Hashena’, to wish for good deeds and a plentiful year like the seeds.

Power of Words by Chris Cade

(Posted from an email from Chris Cade)
A while back my mom sent me an email with an inspiring story and some cartoon pictures. Somebody else has taken that story and filmed it into a beautifully touching and powerful movie called “The Power of Words.” It’s only two minutes… yet it’s two minutes that could change your entire day, your week, maybe even your life (if you’ll let it). Click Here Now And Watch It More importantly than that, this video could empower you to change somebody else’s day, maybe their week, or maybe even their entire life. This video really enlightens us to just how powerful the words are that we share with others. Every single person on this planet has gifts and wisdom that will help others. You personally have the “Power of Words” inside of yourself and every time you give somebody advice, share your story, forward a video like this to somebody, or help them see things from a new perspective… you are simultaneously expressing that power and helping other people discover that power within themselves. If you like this video, remember to forward it to the people you care about. Your Partner In Transformation, Chris Cade Liberate Your Life P.S. If you’ve ever wondered whether or not YOU could personally make that kind of powerful difference in the world while earning an abundant income, now is the ideal time to consider whether or
not.

Children refused to Listen to or Dance to gospel music in this church

These children in this video clip(click here to watch) have been refused to listen to or dance to gospel music by gospel artists within their church. I witnessed it shortly after this clip.
Orders are said to have come from the Regional office sunctioned by church elders(all within the same mission centre).
What do you think?

By the way they are asking for your cash donation to build their church(10 years in construction) despite the storage room being said to be full of cement bags gone bad(expired by storage) bought by contributions by church goers over the years. Two Regional officials have mentioned they don’t ever see that church being completed.

*The church is AIC Mukaa located within AIC’s oldest Mission Centre. AIC stands for ‘African Inland Church’ one of Kenya’s Main churches started by AIM (African Inland Missions).

What’s the real secret by Dr. Robert Anthony

oki! The ability and willingness to be teachable is an important aspect of the higher Levels of Awareness. At the Victim and Struggle Level, there is a lot of resistance to being told anything by anybody. There is a tendency to respond with “I know that” or “I read that, already!” Both of those statements are clues of defensiveness. In addition, having read or heard a concept does not mean you are actually practicing that action on a daily basis. Being teachable means that you must start out with a “beginner mind set” and a humble attitude. How easy is it for you to admit that you don’t know something? How often do you pretend or exaggerate what you really know? Can you be humble without feeling vulnerable? We are all students of life. How often have you heard or read something many times and finally one day you hear it in a new and different way and finally it sinks in? We are never too old to learn. Current longevity studies show that the more we are committed to curiosity and learning, the longer we will live. Today look at the world with beginner eyes and at the end of the day spend a few moments reflecting on what you saw and what you learned. Today will bring you a new awareness, a lesson or a manifestation that you are making progress -IF YOU LOOK FOR IT! No matter how large or small, please record it in your Evidence Journal. It will only take a few moments and will AUTOMATICALLY put you in the Flow. Truly Caring for Your Success! Dr. Robert Anthony P.S.

A match too captivating

This game became soo captivating that the spectators ALL joined in to play(leaving their shirts on the goal), meanwhile the goal keeper too was not to be left out. He left his goal to join in the game(that was until his teams opponents discovered the goal was unmanned and did the necessary and his team mates did the necessary to him).
In the meantime this young lad could not resist the temptation to make use of this rare view/vantage point to enjoy the game! Reporting home late after school would be dealt with later, and run did he run home but after thoroughly enjoying the game. Was his mother awaiting with hands akimbo and a small stick in palm awaiting the explanation as to why his age mates got home long before him?

Enjoy your weekend!

*ps
..have to heard that song that goes..
“…wakamba nati, ooh wakamba nati siya…”
…that’s my version, the original is here and it’s a wonderful South African Praise song (click here to watch:Solly Mahlangu – Siyabonga Jesu)
