To Be...
It was the '80's, I'd dined at posh restaurants, enjoyed some of the world's best entertainment...
...and been privileged to know some fascinating characters. But many a time life seemed too "surfacey." So often I found myself asking, Is that all there is to my life? I remember identifying with Peggy Lee's song, "Is That All There Is?" ... and I made up my mind to search for more! Check out this great self improvement book!
“Of all knowledge, the wise and good seek to know themselves.” Shakespseare
The yearning “to be” is usually born out of the frustrations and disillusions in life resulting from illness, loss of loves, failures, life lived without meaning, resentments, and major catastrophes. However, deep within, our intuition whispers that it is, somehow, possible to live with purpose and peace of mind in radiant health and love. We long to find a way to merge with the eternal. The secret to success in these pursuits is to personally commit to the process of full knowing one’s Self.
The School Of Life
Propelled by John Denver's inspirational song, "I Want To Live,"
I became aware when I immersed myself in the intimacy of Nature, I became obsessed with the desire to "see" beneath Life. I desperately wanted
to grow,
to see,
to know,
to share,
to be,
to really live...
"All the world's a stage, and most of us are desperately unrehearsed." Sean O'Casey
Our Earth is a grand stage on which we can learn to play “The Game of Life.” The main reason we exist at all is to experience life and to learn from it. This expands our wisdom and sharpens the clarity of our view of life. We begin to see life as a game…that can be won or lost, depending upon those with whom we choose to associate. It is imperative to understand the difference between knowledge and wisdom, relative and universal truths, and consciousness and awareness. With these basics of Life (that unfortunately are not being taught in our present conventional education) we can begin to see what it takes to succeed in the School of Life. All high spiritual masters have one thing in common: an intimacy and control of all five bodies of Self.
The Physical Body
I knew no one could be truly happy unless they had mobility and good health.
I loved how energetic my body felt when I heard, "What A Feeling!" from the movie "Flashdance."
Our bodies of matter are created from out of the elements, but I wondered...how does this powerful energy inside me hold all its trillions of cells together? I set out to understand.
Over 90% of humanity’s sub-health conditions...
...are caused by body cells being undernourished and overloaded with toxic substances.
If the Physical Body feels good, we do other things well, and are more successful...
... with the things we want to do in life. To keep our body in good health, we need to understand the underlying theories of natural health, and this allows us to make more intelligent decision about how to care for our body. Next, we learn to take more control of our own health through learning how the Physical Body works, how to give it what it needs, and how to identify its weaknesses so these can be strengthened to allow our individual best genetic blueprint to come forth.
The SEVEN components of Physical Body health...
…key secrets to vibrant health, good energy and longevity are revealed. A guideline plan is given to begin evaluating your own physical body to make constructive changes, as well as Self Help “tools in your toolbox” including information on illnesses, vitamin, mineral and herbal remedies, exercise programs, “How To” and a “References and Resources” section of recommended books, videos and cassettes.
Your miraculous physical body...
...is your vehicle in which to travel through this life. Learn how to give it what it needs. Love it; be kind to it; honor it; and you will be fulfilled!
The Emotional Body
Inspired by the song, "The Greatest Love Of All"...
...I searched to find the depths of my feelings. I had no idea of the turbulence
I had to conquer to be able to really feel...the greatest love of all...inside myself!
Feelings of love, joy, affection, fear, resentment and sorrow...
… this is the invisible realm of The Emotional Body.
Emotions are at the base of every facet of our lives on Earth...
...affecting our personal interactions with others including our social community, governmental, political and religious involvements. Ever wonder where these feelings come from or how they affect our Physical Body, and how we can consciously guide them to our best results?
In WE HU-MANS you will discover...
...exactly how feelings “out there” in the invisible worlds get “inside” us and affect our physical bodies. Then we’ll explore the major world religions, and how they differ and are similar, the mechanics of prayer, psychological clearing of emotional pains of the past, and psychic knowledge of the body’s energy systems. The levels of personal and impersonal love, daydreams, types of dreams, sexuality, music, creativity and death are all explored so it’s clear how they inter-connect and affect our Emotional Body of feelings.
Lots of Self Help "tools for your toolbox"...
...including “How To” balance your emotional body, as well as a “References and Resources” Section of valuable, recommended reference books, videos and cassettes.
The Causal Body
I felt like Yentl (in the movie "Yentl," questioning... "Where Is It Written?" I struggled...
...wrestling to uncover the felt were lying deep within me..
Just what I was born to be?
What were you born to be?
How can you determine your life's purpose?
How can you develop a profession or work and a successful life’s plan that you love?
How can you fit the pieces of your life into a beautiful tapestry of color, light and love? This is the realm of “cause and effect,” The Causal Body. It is as sure and predictable as the sun’s rising and setting. This is the dimension of your Self that reveals your natural talents and abilities, your “spark of genius,” your instincts and motivations.
In this section, we look at patterns and cycles of Life...
...and discover the missing link in Western religions and many psychologies that make Life finally make sense! The various types of karma are revealed, as are methods of how to build “good karma.” Where do we go when our physical body dies? This is also a subject of The Causal Body.
With “How To” increase your causal body’s conscious awareness...
...with excellent resources and references so you will be able to see how to chart a meaningful life for yourself, custom-designed just for the unique being you are!
The Mental Body
I kept hoping to understand Truth...
...through the world's great philosophies and religions. I felt like Lennon & McCartney had written "The Long and Winding Road" just for me. I longed for a teacher who could show me the secret entrance into the awesome Silence beyond all thought.
Where is the Mind?
Where do thoughts come from?
How do thoughts “out there” get “in here” in our brain?
How the Mind works...
...is explored as well as how the brain and conscious mind, and how the subconscious mind and the solar plexus are connected. The differences of philosophical thought and the various mental disciplines of Science, Philosophy, Magic, Hypnotism, Religion, Metaphysics, and Divine Wisdom are discussed to be able to have an overall objective view.
How we can become more discerning...
... identifying those with beneficial, constructive, “positive,” mental habits
from those with non-beneficial, destructive, “negative” mental habits? You’ll see, and by using these in everyday life, we can better select those with whom we wish to interact closely.
The “Five Passions of the Mind” are also explored and how these tempt us into unhealthy and uncomfortable states of life. You will also discover their antidotes and how to use them to neutralize these non-beneficial patterns of thinking so you are not as controlled by them. These are easy, natural, harmless ways to balance the Mind into healthy, productive, constructive thought patterns that go directly to the invisible worlds of Thought and bypass the dense world of the physical body.
How to “Still” the Mind...
...into quiet Bliss is revealed so the Sounds of Wisdom in Silence can be heard.
This section includes “How To” calm the mind with valuable, suggested “References and Resources” for expanding the conscious awareness of The Mental Body.
The Soul Body
"Looking Through the Eyes of Love"...
...played on my stereo. A shining newness had come into my life. At last, I had found the indivisible, pure positive Truths of Life.
Windows of Soul
They say the eyes are the windows of the Soul, and this Chapter is about opening the consciousness into the vast and glorious realms of Soul. This is a realm of purity of Truth and Wisdom that few before our times have known about.
You will learn exactly what a Soul is, why Souls are born, and how to connect more clearly with the highest source of wisdom and guidance within yourself!
You will discover what Soul teachings are...
