The quest for happiness can be fleeting. It feels like we are running on a hamster wheel or a treadmill - just never moving forward and finding the peace, calmness, and happiness we seek! We still feel empty after "having it all". Are you tired of chasing happiness without “catching up with it”? Is there a secret to happiness? Is there a way to go back to the drawing board to chart our journey to happiness and follow it until happiness, peace of mind, and more good stuff ooze from our being?

Your chakras are entryways to otherworldly power and probability, and all things considered, have been a progressing wellspring of interest and concentrate for thousands of years. Also, every last one of your chakras contains an antiquated key that can open arrangements for current difficulties and problems. This implies you are going to learn privileged insights that were once known uniquely to our progenitors, and to bring those conventions into present time.

Many spiritual-related matters have been narrated and studied with authenticity. They continue to inspire many people, and the gemstones in them continue to guide many facets of their lives. Sometimes we are not teachers, but we can be more than that or remain to be the same. As we navigate through life, we wish always to learn to meditate. We could resort to seeking meditation teachers, but in most of cases, that is not feasible. In essence, this book draws some tidbits and shrewd sentiments from those who vigorously exerted themselves to meditation, including Buddhists.

If you choose to use one or more of these scripts to facilitate a guided meditation journey for others, please preface the trip for them by reminding them that no longer all people "see" matters for the duration of a guided meditation. This is very important, because our purpose is for them to go a bit closer to their soul during the journey, not to supply them one more cause to consider they've failed.

Stoicism is a timeless ancient philosophy which can teach you just that.

Thus giving its practitioners a way to better deal with the misfortunes and hardships they face.

Centering prayer is the path to a wonderful and radical new way of seeing the world.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 56
General interest in Buddhism has never been higher. The story and teachings of a man who lived 2,500 years ago have a special resonance for us today, perhaps because he taught a way of life that was not based on belief in a creator god but rather on personal experience. "Test my words for yourself," he said. But what lies behind those distinctive images of the Buddha, seated with unshakeable poise, with eyes half-closed and a slight smile? Jinananda, a Western-born Buddhist, divides the subject into the Three Jewels....

Twenty-seven years ago, Matthieu Ricard gave up a promising career as a scientist to study Tibetan Buddhism - not as a detached observer but by immersing himself in its practice under the guidance of its greatest living masters. Years later, this project was born, and Richard met with his father, Jean-Francois Revel - a French philosopher who became world famous for his challenges to both Communism and Christianity. At an inn, these two profoundly thoughtful men explored questions that have occupied humankind throughout its history.
