Fostering the Seeds of Peace

In some parts of history, the western world restore signs to which civilization will move. Industrialization, democracy, capitalism, feminism, technology are just some things that initially occurred in the West, then outspread to the whole world. Sadly, there is a powerful country in the West beginning to show anti-religious sentiments openly. Hopefully this too will not spread to other parts of the world.

The True Hero

The long history of a hero is a long story of victory. There was no one who was called a great warrior because they became losers on the battlefield. All heroes of the past were  praised in their time and age because of winning.

The last paradigm of hero brings a very long and deep impact on the development of human generations for thousands of years. The old myth about a hero who always wins brings a deep impact everywhere. The suicide rate which is increasing steadily everywhere, divorce rates that can not be lowered in every country, the touching stories of violence that bring the identity of religion, are all caused by many reasons. But it is hard to deny, that all of these human tragedies have a link to the old myth that a warrior must always win.

The Blessful Heart

A Dutch tourist who has just lost her father, asked here and there in Bali. She wants to find a saint who can change her bad luck. She wants to evolve from a life which is full of misfortune into a life which is full of good fortune. This is typical of seekers in this day and age. They seek a holy Guru not in order to illuminate the soul, but to make life full of profit.

A tourist who comes from Australia shared his story in a meditation session, that he had visited healers in Bali. It is the same as the above tourists from the Netherlands, this gentleman also wanted a life which is full of good luck. Sadly, what he found was not good luck, but the soul which is darkening from day to day. A gentleman from Jakarta opened his secret that he has changed his religion three times. But he feels cheated in all the three religions that he followed.

The Inner Beauty

In line with the growing economy everywhere, the human need to be recognized also grows. Something which is very humane. And the rapid growth of cosmetics and the garment industry opens the secret of how huge the money is which is allocated by people in order to be called beautiful.

Renowned psychologist Abraham Maslow wrote a long time ago, that at a certain stage of soul growth the need to be recognized will be very dominant. It is part of a long journey to heal the soul. Similar to the food we eat to making our body healthy (when eaten in moderation), the food of the soul, like other people's recognition is also similar.

There are times when one must dare to say enough. Without this kind of courage, the soul would easily collapse. Firstly, the other's recognition can easily change. One who praises today may blame another day. Secondly, using other's recognition as an important measurement will make someone grow to be someone else. Over a matter of time, one will feel alienated in their own body.

Sunrise of Soul

It has become an old story that many people find psychological satisfaction by talking about someone else's negative sides and problems. Especially people who are not touched by enough

education, they find a sort of entertainment there. Few are aware that behind this old habit there is a very dangerous psychological poison. Even less people know that it can make the soul grow from darkness to darkness.

Rare Spiritual Diamond

Similar to someone who holds a fishing-rod on the beach, that's the life of independent souls in old age. Life may be full of trials and tribulations, but souls will remain wealthy and rich of smiles. A series of spiritual attainment which is very beautiful in old age.

Deeply learn from here, it is very very important to train yourself to be independent from a young age. To be independent in finance, to be independent in attitude, to be independent in choosing the path of life. In the time when people are very poor of empathy, without independence life will be full of temptations and trials.

Old Home of Soul

Here and there we can see people who have left behind their old home which was inherited from their parents. There are various reasons behind the tendency of many people to move away from the old house. From avoiding family conflict to looking for environments with more fresh air. But there's also cosmic signs behind the tendency of many people running away from their old home, it's the tendency of many souls to leave behind the old home of soul named family.

Some people stay away from family because of divorce, some others run away because of being troubled by children or children with special needs, there are also some others who move away because of childhood trauma. In fact, in this age the soul garden which is most likely to be saved is family. Those who can not find shelter in family, probably they will find no shelter elsewhere.
