A Little Riff on Zen

April 27, 2013 by @dieselpokers 5 Comments

The word Zen is derived from the Sanskrit word dhyāna, meaning “meditation” or “meditative state.”

Zen is a school of Mahāyāna Buddhism founded by the Buddhist monk Bodhidharma. Zen emphasizes experiential wisdom in the path to attaining enlightenment. It favors direct self-realization through meditation and dharma. Meditation is the core aspect of Zen practice. Zen meditation is formally described as a sitting meditation with awareness being directed towards counting or watching the breath. Experienced practitioners of Zen meditation strive to be aware of the stream of thoughts in their minds, allowing them to arise and pass away without interference. Read more of this post

How to Develop The Ability to See and Read The Aura

April 27, 2013 by proactiveawareness 2 Comments

HJ: The idea that only certain people born with special gifts or talents have the ability to see auras is patently false. The truth is that everyone has this ability. It is a sense just like taste, sight, touch, smell, or hearing, however, it is one that is not always readily accessible (except for a small percentage of people who retain the ability to see the aura into adulthood — we are all able to see auras at a young enough age). For most of us, it requires practice and learned sensitivity to subtle energies to be able to do so. The secret key to being able to see auras and also being able to do anything you set your mind to, is to truly believe at the core of your being that it is possible. Without the belief that you can indeed see auras, you will be sabotaging yourself unconsciously from doing so. Read more of this post

Eating Your Way to Health, Happiness, and Well-Being

January 24, 2013 by proactiveawareness Leave a Comment

HJ: I can tell you this with utmost certainty: there is no quicker way to health than the adoption of a diet of whole, organic, unrefined foods and there is no quicker way to disease and malaise than the lack thereof. The role of whole foods in health is greatly underestimated by the current medical establishment, although this is changing quite rapidly. The powers that be are aware of this fact, which is why they have fought tooth and nail over the last century to devitalize our foods into nutritionless, genetically modified matter that serves little purpose than to keep us in an addicted, chemicalized stupor.

4 Simple Techniques For Remembering Your Dreams

January 17, 2013 by @dieselpokers Leave a Comment

HJ: Our dreams hold many messages and clues for us in the waking state. In the dream state our souls leave the physical body and travel through the astral realms into the 4th dimension and higher. We oftentimes work through karmic and past life issues when sleeping in addition to dealing with current events and themes in our lives. Furthermore, in this state, we are recharged with higher spiritual energy which carries us through our day. As we learn to work with our dreams, we can begin to gain insight into our true nature and even begin to see into the future, as time is not linear in the higher dimensions. You may have experienced this via Deja Vu or even premonitions which played out into reality. Much of the process of understanding the higher meanings and messages of our dreams has to do with learning to interpret the story lines and events that occur in the dream state, which are often cloaked in heavy symbolism.

The Psychology of Gambling (Infograph)

January 16, 2013 by breakinbadd Leave a Comment

65% of Americans gamble – I’m not sure what percentage are degenerate gamblers or occasional gamblers, but at least we know that over half of America feels comfortable enough to gamble their money away during this “recession”.

How we gamble and how long we gamble all depends on how our brain is working. When we are having fun and enjoying gambling, dopamine is being release into our brain telling us that we want more. This is what makes gambling so exciting. When we are losing..well, that feeling is terrible.

Check out this info graph showing how our brains work and react during gambling.

America’s Flawed Education System & What You Can Do to Master it

January 3, 2013 by nvestn 1 Comment

Children are sent to school to earn “credits” and to learn to memorize, not to learn what they want in life. Why does this system endeavor to promote memorization and not self-realization?

Does the current education system cleverly take over the minds of children before they learn how to use their mind?

“After all, the only thing of enduring value to any human being is a working knowledge of his own mind.” Read more of this post

Scientists Prove DNA Can Be Reprogrammed by Words and Frequencies

December 20, 2012 by proactiveawareness Leave a Comment

The human DNA is a biological internet, and superior in many aspects to the artificial one. Russian scientific research directly or indirectly explains phenomena such as clairvoyance, intuition, spontaneous and remote acts of healing, self-healing, affirmation techniques, unusual light/auras around people (namely spiritual masters), mind’s influence on weather patterns and much more. In addition, there is evidence for a whole new type of medicine in which DNA can be influenced and reprogrammed by words and frequencies WITHOUT cutting out and replacing single genes.

Balancing The Heart Chakra

December 10, 2012 by @dieselpokers Leave a Comment

The Heart Chakra is the 4th chakra, located right in the very center of the entire chakra system, which is represented by the colors green and pink. The Sanskrit name for this chakra is Anahata Chakra, which actually means unstruck. Within the Heart is a deep and vivid feeling of love, where all of our emotions and yearnings are expressed. We attune ourselves from here with the cosmic vibrations and are then able to perceive the beauty found in everything. The Heart is where all images, words and sounds are transformed into our feelings. When the Heart is fully opened it creates a center of “unconditional” love. Read more of this post

Ascension Symptoms – Experiencing the Higher Realms

Rising in Consciousness

Like this tree, we are all moving through a transformative process whether we are aware of it or not. This tree is literally bursting out of its old skin – and so are we. The template of what we knew to be ‘human’ is rapidly changing into a much lighter vibrational version.

The individual is becoming more heart centred, compassionate and creative, and is also opening to greater cosmic consciousness as long constricted glands including the pituitary and pineal open naturally and fully to function as they were designed to do. Read more of this post
