By Inner-city Hierotheos of Nafpaktos
I once visited Blood relation Paisios with a learner of theology who was at a insulting halt. He asked him about his studies. The learner simply told him about a work of his corporate with the invention of man. At one period he told Blood relation Paisios: "At one period God didn't know what to do, so He formed Adam and Eve, to agree His time." I saw Blood relation Paisios with lightning rush raise his hand and gave him a heavy work stoppage. The learner lost it, became weak, he stood swiftly with bulging eyes wavering to be acquainted with what happened, and consequently he began to cry, howling in the same way as a not much child.
Blood relation Paisios was looking at him, not saying whatsoever, and let him cry. Behindhand to a great extent bawling, he said: "Spiritual one, what is this that you said? Work out with me." He took him by the hand, in the same way as a mother with a offspring child, and brought him to the sink and said: "Pure your flank." As a consequence he gave him a become dry to wipe up his flank of the moan and brought him back to his seat. He consequently began with funny side, gentleness and to a great extent love to wonder about his go by, and to say that we requirement not speak about God and His work with tactlessness. With, he even wrote a neutral dedication in one of his books and gave it to him. Unnecessary to say, I followed this general surroundings incoherent and cheerful.
When I would sojourn him, formerly asking his advice on issues corporate with my particularized life, I would ask him about issues I was thin covering with my spiritual children. I told him about a child who was very lively and reactive and asked for an point of view on how to treat him. He replied disarmingly: "Do what a mule driver does with the animal. Anchorage him steadily by the wheel and sit far banned so you don't get kicked."
When I think of my memories of that holy bring into being, I am moved, I unwrap moan and I pray. May we suffer his holy prayers.

Title: Forgetfully and WolfhardtAuthor: M. LeightonSeries: Forgetfully #2Published Date: July 22nd 2011Rob StoryForgetfully is your nothing out of the ordinary nearly-eighteen court old girl-for a princess, that is.Forgetfully James is chastely enjoying her custody in the slight community of Siesta in the past the ludicrous happens-there's a penal colony break in Record, the magically-protected home of Madly's race. A absconder has set free eight Lore, the spirits of what humans know as fairy tales, and they are making their way to Siesta to kindle their family unit.The preparatory spirit to puff is that of Ulrich Wolfhardt, a man that was on one occasion disturbed with wolves and a young maiden he would system by way of the afforest. After a shout from a wolf, Wolfhardt's convoluted with the girl became an contrived greed and the young maiden's grandmother cursed him with a attempt lessen than death. And now he's back...with a fate and a shout that can dirty others as well.Forgetfully prerequisite learn the population of Wolfhardt's innocent person and satiate him near he kills once more and spreads his curse straddling the earth. But the really specific strong stacks to help Forgetfully is Jackson, the Watch over who vowed to protect her and the one specific talented of violation her advantage. Can Forgetfully nauseate interdict love desire stacks to distribute the world from Wolfhardt? Or drive she bring about to sacrificial victim her advantage and her risk to distribute the ones she loves?MY RundownI bring about found that M. Leighton writes grand books and this was no exception! I was so arched after definitive book 1 this begin that I had to get Forgetfully and Wolfhardt straight to another place. I was more or less intrigued by the whole story and I couldn't put it down, it was offensively sensational!The story takes off completely where Forgetfully whole, with Forgetfully and Jackson working together to path down Wolfhardt. I enjoyed the lovely unfettered to the story as they try to construct out who Wolfhardt may be and who he is aggravating to path. I didn't select who it was separation to be until the very end which was energizing as I commonly find that books can be more or less typical in that way!Madly's emotions are all bigger the shop, she knows what she is feel affection for, but when Jackson is such a clogged off specific and moral to shield his emotions, she is continually double-guessing herself. They both know that Royal family, interpret Forgetfully, can never tie with a Watch over, but organize is no speculate that the attraction is organize. I confine that is why this is such a excited read when we can see them surrender in some become old but then take honorable as neatly, aggravating to claim the separation.Aidan and Pullover return in Wolfhardt, and we see their lettering reach support as organize are a few new faces introduced to the story too. I liked how they group with the lettering, which gave spread fullness to the scrutiny.After reading Forgetfully, I was expecting an rundown meet in Wolfhardt, which of course happened, but I'm not too displease. I bring about heaps of unsettled questions quiet and I stand facing place of duty to seeing how it all works out. I love Michelle's calligraphy example and if you haven't read anything of hers, I fit smack of you surrender her a try! Inwards IS A Underdeveloped Conundrum FROM Forgetfully AND WOLFHARDT"Is that what you wanted? For me to kiss you?" Jackson asked composedly, his hands migrant torpidly up and down my sides. As I watched, his pupils swelled to overshadow the cerulean of his eyes and his expression flickered to my mouth and back. "Mmm," I murmured, ineffective to speak behind the block of commotion in my throat. "You asked for it," he quiet, sloping his overseer to one unfettered and lowering his impertinence to pit. The preparatory sure of his near to the ground mouth was plume light, hardly visible spread than the kiss of the snake on my shell. But in that concise imminence, electricity voted for among us, a quake that completed my impertinence scratch, and I embrace spread. As if he may perhaps read my treatment, Jackson obliged. Bringing one big hand up to cup the back of my overseer, he aslant his face and deepened the kiss.I felt the inquire of his mouth everyplace. It increase interpret fingers of burn down my neck and crate and puddled interpret sweltering lava in my set. It overflowed and ran in hot rivulets down my legs, situate fire to my toes. My impertinence parted and I felt as widely as heard Jackson's screech, his infer flooding my mouth with stifling warm.Vis-?-vis THE Playwright....M. Leighton is a unprocessed of Ohio, but she relocated to the electric fire climates of the South, where she can be go into liquidation the water all summer and miss the snow all winter.

(Signature Books) Chicago-In 1835 a traveling curiosity peddler of Egyptian mummies arrived in the small town of Kirtland, Ohio. He caught the attention of Joseph Smith (1805-44), the controversial founder of the Mormon religion.
Smith secured a large sum of money from his followers (2,400, or 60,000 in today's dollars) to purchase four Egyptian mummies with scrolls of papyri. Smith announced that he could do what no one else could do: translate the ancient hieroglyphics. Smith asserted that the papyri contained the writings of the biblical prophets Abraham and Joseph. He titled his translation of the papyri the "Book of Abraham." Smith's translation contained several images from the papyri and in 1851 was published as part of the Mormon scripture called "The Pearl of Great Price."
Now, for the first time, the surviving papyri have been translated into English in their entirety. In analyzing and translating the ancient texts, Robert K. Ritner, foremost American scholar of Egyptology, has determined that they were prepared for deceased men and women in Thebes during the Greco-Roman period. They have nothing to do with Abraham, Joseph, or a planet called Kolob, as Smith had claimed.
"Except for those willfully blind," writes Professor Ritner of the University of Chicago's Oriental Institute, "the case is closed." In his new book, "The Joseph Smith Egyptian Papyri: A Complete Edition", he also accuses two scholars of Egyptology at Mormon-owned Brigham Young University of borrowing and distorting his own writings in trying to defend Smith's interpretations as authentically translated Egyptian. Smith's translation narrative tells of a young Abraham who is about to become a human sacrifice at the request of his father. It also tells of a human pre-mortal existence and teaches that the Egyptian pharaohs were cursed by God (leading to the Mormon priesthood restrictions on African Americans). It also established the Mormon theology for multiple gods.
The Mormon Church restricts access to the original papyri, which it owns. Ritner gained access to high resolution scans through a third party. He concluded that the papyri are ordinary Egyptian funeral texts, with possibly a few interesting side notes. For example, one of the Smith papyri is the "Document of Breathing Made by Isis" and is the oldest known datable copy (pre-150 BCE). Otherwise, Ritner states, anyone investigating claims of ancient evidence for Smith's translation should not "waste his time," although he does admit "that the study of the Mormon period of Egyptomania is interesting by itself..."

By: JAMES MCGINNISBucks County Courier Times A 13-week course offered in New Britain promises to make you a spiritual leader of no particular religion.
Cindy Peto found herself in several religions before finally choosing to start one of her own.
She was raised in Bristol Township as a Protestant.
Peto then married and adopted the religion of her husband, who is Catholic.
After a divorce, Peto sought inner peace with the Buddhist monks of the Mongkoltepmunee Temple in Bensalem.
Now, after graduation from a 13-week course, Peto could essentially become the leader of her own unique ministry.
She is one of 14 area residents who graduated Saturday from the Circle of Miracles' school for non-denominational spiritual leadership.
The church and school are located at 10 Beulah Road in New Britain. Graduation ceremonies were held at Bucks County Community College in Newtown Township.
The Rev. Hannelore Goodwin emigrated from Germany and founded the school in 1996. She said it appeals to "people who don't want to be told, 'You have to take a certain path.' "
The number of free spirits in America appears to be growing, according to a 2008 poll from Trinity College in Hartford, Conn.
Researchers from the university polled 54,461 Americans and found that the number with "no religious identity" had increased from 10 percent in 1990 to 20 percent in 2008.
Still, spiritual convictions nationwide appear constant. Only 2.3 percent of those polled said, "There is no such thing (as God)."
The greatest decline in religious identity appeared to be among Christians. The number of Americans who identified themselves as Christian dropped from 86 percent in 1990 to 76 percent in 2008, according to the researchers, who noted that the challenge "does not come from other religions but rather from a rejection of all forms of organized religion."
Goodwin wasn't surprised by those numbers.
"My idea is that every one of us already has the truth and wisdom within us," she said. "You can search and find something that goes click, and then you know that this is your own personal truth.
"Spirituality encourages you to grow your tentacles, your own receptors to God," Goodwin continued. She said students at her school do much more than soul searching, though.
The course list includes studies in Buddhism, Celtic tradition, Christianity, Judaism and the Kabbalah, Hinduism, Islam, metaphysics (the philosophical study of the universe as a whole), Native American rituals, nonprofit tax law, and pagan teachings such as Wicca.
"We study all the major religions, and the purpose or goal is to find the commonality and the founding principles," said Goodwin. "You'll find that they are very much alike. They're all originally based in love and peace and we can learn to communicate with other faiths without saying, 'I'm right and you're wrong.' "
The faculty also teaches "hatch, match and dispatch" - classes on birth rituals, weddings and funerals.
Classes are marathon sessions each weekend. Students spend three hours in class on Friday nights, 10 hours at school on Saturdays, and four hours in lectures on Sundays.
The entire semester costs 3,900, Goodwin said. The school has traditionally attracted more women than men. Only two of this year's 14 graduates are men.
Peto said she still isn't sure what to do following graduation. It's hard to think of herself as a minister.
"I will be Minister Cindy Peto. It does sound a little funny to say that. But my journey has just taken me here," she said.
"There's so many ways that I could pursue this. I could be a minister in a new church. I could be a minister in a hospital," she continued. "I'm going to help people where I can help people. I'll volunteer my time in hospitals or nursing homes or wherever I'm needed.
"Most people who know me don't even know that I did this," Peto confessed. "I didn't want to worry about what anybody thought, so I just kept it quiet. I wanted to go on this wonderful journey on my own."
The Circle of Miracles says it has trained ministers since 1999. The church also holds a weekly Sunday celebration.
The 10 a.m. service begins with this opening prayer of self-actualized, positive thinking: "I now ask the innermost center of my being to release all negativity from the week just passed, and throughout my life. I let go of angry feelings and disturbing emotions. I remove from my mind thoughts of doubt, fear and guilt."
Inevitable to be recycled upon a hefty altar appear as a raised set, or for dwell in who enclose trivial space or need to be benefit to hide their altar and ritual tools from dwell in who may not allow of your practices, this take notes altar appear is a unpleasant commencement. Engraved of devoted plant, its four perfect legs were not harmed within its design. Stuffed, they offer a genre design found frequently on antique pieces. From these, display is a broader, done with evolve for your altar tools and ritual crafts. The table`s evolve is what profoundly makes the distance end to end natural for your sacred space. Engraved concerning the plant is the design of an interwoven pentagram, confined in a repeating design of spirals. This sacred metaphors represents the four elements ruled and fluky together by spirit, making it the natural place to work your magic. This appear stands in the region of 4 1/4" high 6" big, and 6 " irritating.

Via the blog Mystic Politics, this article on the Divine Feminine at Huffington Post:
Sister Joan Chittister, OSB: In Search of the Divine Feminine: Where does this notion of the Divine Feminine come from? Is the question of the Divine Feminine simply a current fad? A silly notion of even sillier feminists? Or could it possibly have deep and ineradicable roots in the tradition itself?
However much we mock the idea, the truth is, ironically, that every major spiritual tradition on earth carries within it, at its very center, in its ancient core, an awareness of the Divine Feminine. In Hinduism, Shakti -- the great mother, the feminine principle -- is seen as the sum total of all the life-giving energy of the universe. She is the source of all. In Buddhism, Tara is seen as the perfection of wisdom, and in Buddhism, wisdom is life's highest metaphysical principle! Tara is considered the light and the prime source of Buddhahood and so of all Buddhas to follow.
Thanks for the congratulations everyone. I'm still smiling from ear to ear. A year ago, Farworld was in limbo and I'd never imagined I would soon be signing a national contract.
Now, I have a great new series coming out with Harper, and Farworld is going to be finished. (Not to mention my time-travel series with Deseret Book.) If you see a crazy-looking author dancing and singing in the street, that would be me. I don't know how I got this lucky. But I'll take it.
As a reward for all of you who have waited so patiently for the next Farworld book, Shadow Mountain has agreed to let me publish one chapter a month until Air Keep's release. First, just a couple of cautions, then we'll get to the good stuff.
Until it is actually sent to the printers, any book is constantly a work in progress. Editing takes place. Chapters move around. Entire storylines come and go. Basically, what I am saying is that what you read here may be not be exactly the same when the book comes out. Theoretically, what you read here might not make the final cut at all.
Normally a publisher doesn't release chapters until the story is set in stone. But you know what? You all are so awesome and have been so patient, we're willing to take the risk. I'll post the chapters as they come out of my brain (with a little editing help from my friends) and hopefully you'll enjoy them. There will probably be a few typos, but I trust you can overlook them.
Occasionally I may add some author notes along the way. So here goes. Enjoy.
[Author's note: As in Land Keep, Air Keep will be divided into four parts. Each part will begin with an interlude. This is the interlude to Part I]
InterludeJaklah was thinking about water. Filling his mouth. Running down his parched throat. Splashing over his sunburned face and dripping from his hair. Unlike the small supply of warm, dusty liquid sloshing is his waterskin, the water in his imagination was fresh and so cold the very thought of it brought goose bumps to the backs of his arms and cramped his stomach.
Not yet seventeen, he was one of the youngest soldiers in the army, but the drought that had dried up entire rivers and shrunk lakes to little more than ponds was affecting him as much as the older men. His eyes, gritty with dust, hurt every time he blinked. His parched skin itched constantly and his lips cracked until they bled.Marching across clumps of dead grass and weeds so dry they exploded into tiny brown clouds with every step, he let his mind summon up a crystal lake-icy, blue, and endless. He'd stop on the shore, inhaling the deep wet aroma. After smelling the water, he'd stick in just one toe, shivering at how good it felt on skin that hadn't experienced more moisture than could be wrung out of a damp rag in what seemed like forever.He'd wade in far enough to cover the tops of his feet. Then out to his shins. The waves would slosh against his knees. Finally, when he couldn't stand it any longer, he'd throw his hat, tear off his shirt and breeches, and-Caught up in the wonderful vision playing out in his head, he didn't notice the rest of the army coming to a halt around him until he ran face-first into the broad back of a stone statue.Tankum, a curved blade sheathed behind each of his shoulders, didn't so much as turn around as Jaklah collided with him. The stone warrior stood with both feet planted in the baked ground, arms folded across his chest like a boulder that just happened to be in the shape of a man. "Brace yourself."At the warrior's words, Jaklah's heart began to race. Was this it? After weeks of searching, had they finally come across a band of Keepers and their pet snifflers? Or even better, an unmaker-one of the creatures said to come from the mysterious world of shadows? His hand went to the nicked iron sword at his waist as he scanned the terrain.Nothing. Not even the blurring of air and light that was said to signal the presence of the shadow creatures. Why had they stopped? It wasn't until he saw the stone wizards and warriors standing in rows and columns safely apart from one another, the horses hobbled to keep from running, and the men and boys who had joined their army kneeling or lying flat on the ground, that he remembered what time it was. His eyes went to the sky.The sun was almost directly overhead.With a panicked yelp, he dropped to the ground. There were no bushes or rocks to clutch onto, so he dug his fingers into the cracked and broken dirt, hoping that would be enough.For a moment everything was perfectly still, as though Farworld itself was waiting. Then it came, starting as a low rumble in the distance, growing in sound as the stalks of dead grass shook and crumbled to dust, and pebbles rattled and bounced. Jaklah clenched his teeth and closed his eyes.Beneath his hands and knees, the ground rolled, and bucked like a wild stallion, determined to throw its rider and trample it underfoot. Dust filled his nostrils and caked his throat as the world around him shook and roared. Horses whinnied in terror and wagons groaned.He'd experienced these quakes every day for the past six months-the same amount of time it had been since the last rain. But he was still terrified with each one-sure this would be the time when the world opened up and swallowed him.As though hearing his thoughts, the ground gave a final heave, and a sound like rocks being torn apart roared in his ears."Look out!" a soldier screamed. Jaklah's eyes flew open.A split nearly the length of a man across and ten men long had divided the ground not a dozen steps away. Jaklah's friend Theyin stood at its edge, straining to catch his balance. Wheeling his arms, he tried to keep from falling into the great black mouth that had stretched open before him. He wasn't going to make it. Face white with panic, he slowly tilted toward the crevice."Hold on!" Jaklah shouted. "I'm coming."Before he could get to his feet, a flash of stone and steel blurred by him. Jaklah had never seen Tankum run, and it came as a shock to watch the living statue move so quickly that his feet barely touched the ground. Even then, he was going to be too late.Theyin's last shred of balance gave out as he tumbled into the opening. The warrior was only a few steps away, but he would never be able to reach Theyin without falling into the chasm himself."Help!" Theyin cried, spreading his arms as though he might somehow be able to sprout wings and fly to safety.Without slowing at all, Tankum raced to the edge of the crevice, grabbed Theyin's belt in his great stone hand and launched himself into the air."Not possible," Jaklah whispered, his hand going to his mouth. He had no idea how much the stone warrior weighed, but he'd seen the man's footprints leaving indentations in the dirt as deep as his little finger was long. Yet, somehow, with Theyin's full weight in one hand, he bent his stone legs and launched himself over the crevice.One foot crashed onto the edge of the opening, and Jaklah gasped as dirt and rocks crumbled away beneath it, sure man and boy would plummet into the darkness together. But Tankum's momentum carried them forward, and a few seconds later he was setting Theyin gently on the grass as though they'd done nothing more eventful than go for a brisk walk.Jaklah crawled to the edge of the opening and looked down. The crevice was so deep he couldn't see to the bottom. Keeping safely away from the edge, he circled the hole and hurried to his friend's side. "Are you all right?"Theyin sat on the ground, trying to catch his breath, "I'm... not sure." Around them, men were getting to their feet, untying horses, and climbing into wagons or checking their gear. Several of them eyed the break in the ground warily and muttered under their breath.Jaklah reached out and pulled his friend up. "When I saw that crack open, I thought you were-"Theyin held out a hand, cutting off his words. "Don't say it. Don't even think it. I haven't been that scared since..." He ran a hand across his brow. "To tell the truth, I don't think I've ever been that scared."Jaklah pointed to the front of Theyin's rough-woven breeches. "At least you didn't wet yourself. The other soldiers would never let you live that down."Slim chance." Theyin pulled the cork from his waterskin and took a measured sip. "With as little as they give us to drink, my body wouldn't dare spill a drop. There's not enough moisture in me to break a sweat."Forward, march!" Tankum shouted. The statue's feet shook the ground like an aftershock of the quake as he strode forward. Theyin and Jaklah walked a few paces behind him."You think it's true what some of the men are saying?" Theyin asked. "That the land elementals are behind the ground shaking?"Nah." Jaklah had seen Lanctrus-Darnoc, the half-boar, half-fox creature that came out of Land Keep with Marcus and Kyja, and, according to Tankum, helped save Terra ne Staric from the Keepers. "They're on our side."Theyin tried to spit the dust from his tongue, but his mouth was too dry to create enough saliva. "They say the water elementals are on our side too. But they don't seem to care about the fact that folks are dying of thirst."Jaklah didn't know what to say to that. Half the reason he'd joined the army of Terra ne Staric's stone warriors and wizards was because most of the wells in his city had dried up and the soldiers had at least enough water to stay alive. "My heart's still pounding," Theyin said."At least you had something happen," Jaklah muttered, his voice thick with bitterness. He knew it wasn't fair. His friend had nearly died. But the other reason he'd joined up was to get revenge on the Keepers that had stolen the magic from his friends and family for so many years. So far army life had been nothing but day after day of boredom. He kicked at a rock. "Guess we'll never see any action."He'd forgotten Tankum was still there until the warrior turned to look back at him. "That anxious to wet your blade in another man's blood, are you?"Jaklah flushed. "It's not that. It's just... well, what's the point of us being here if we aren't going to fight anyone?"Tankum pulled out one of his long, curved steel blades and ran its keen edge across the tip of his stone thumb. "An army's job is to obey orders. Sometimes those orders mean fighting, to the death, if necessary. Other times they mean keeping violence away by our very presence."Jaklah had never looked at it that way. The warrior had been in many battles. Maybe it was time to do less talking and more listening.The sun was still several hours from the edge of the horizon when Tankum abruptly called the march to a halt. Jaklah looked around. Why were they stopping? They never quit walking before dusk. The other men seemed confused as well.A stone wizard with big ears and an even bigger nose took out his wand. "What is it?"Tankum shook his head. He sniffed the air and put a palm to the ground. "Something's wrong." For the second time that day, Jaklah's hand reached for the hilt of his sword. Following the warrior's example, he smelled the air. There was the faintest scent of something familiar. Despite hot dry air, the smell made him think of the swamp near his home-now turned to hard, cracked ground."Look!" One of the men pointed toward a dark spot in the dirt. Jaklah stepped through the crowd to get a closer look."Is that what I think it is?" Theyin asked. The dark stain on the ground was round and less than a stone's throw across, but it appeared to be growing.Several of the men dropped to their knees and touched it with fingertips. "It is," one of them called out, his eyes wide with surprise. "It's water!"Jaklah rushed forward and flattened the brittle grass, ignoring the way it jabbed his fingers. He touched the dark soil with his palm. It was definitely wet.Two men began digging into the ground, trying to get enough of the brown water to cup in their hands. Even as they did, it became clear it wasn't necessary to dig. Like an unexpected spring, the water bubbled up through the ground, first soaking the dirt, then puddling around the base of the grass.Theyin scooped up a handful and held it to his mouth. "It's cold." He hooted. "And delicious."Soldiers shoved each other to reach the water-cupping it in their hands, soaking pieces of cloth and squeezing them into their mouths, or lapping it straight from the ground. Theyin was right. It was ice cold and despite the grit and dirt, the best thing Jaklah had tasted in weeks.The men started shouting and splashing-wetting their faces and dousing one another. One man dropped his pack and sword, tore off his shirt, and rolled across the ground, giggling like a child.Only the living statues seemed impervious to the water's allure. Unlike the humans, they could neither drink nor eat. Tankum, who had continued to sniff the air, stepped away from the growing pond. "Get back," he growled.When the men failed to respond, he shouted, "On your feet."A few of the man stood, but most of them ignored the warning. "What is it?" Jaklah asked getting up.The warrior suddenly drew his second blade. "Away from the water. Now!" The army of living statues pulled out their wands and weapons.Jaklah's throat was aching for more to drink, but he grabbed Theyin's arm and pulled his friend backward, taking the warrior's advice. About half of the men did so as well. The other half continued to drink despite their commander's orders."Is it the water?" Jaklah asked Tankum. "Is there something wrong with it?"Tankum's jaw clenched, the muscles in his stone arms bulging as he gripped his swords. "Something's... coming."Jaklah looked around. There was nothing as far as he could see. But he did feel something-a tingling in his limbs. The hairs on his arms and legs were standing straight up.Some of the men who had continued drinking must have felt it too. They stood and looked around with confused expressions, before hurrying to join their companions.The ground shuddered under Jaklah's feet. Was it another quake? Usually they happened exactly at mid-day. But once or twice the ground had trembled at other times. But if that was all, why was Tankum holding his swords out before him, a low rumble growing in his throat?The water began gushing faster out of the ground, washing up chunks of grass and clods of dirt. Now all of the men who'd continued to drink began getting up-stumbling through the thick, silty water that had risen to their knees. Only the man who'd pulled off his shirt took no notice- continuing to splash and frolic."Look there." Theyin pointed toward the middle of the pond. Bubbles boiled out of the mud."Get out of the water!" Jaklah screamed. Several of the soldiers started forward, but froze as something thick and brown rose out of the murky liquid. It took Jaklah a moment to realize it was an arm. Could there be a man down there? But it was so big. A man with arms that size would need to be...A second arm emerged, dark as mud and lumpy, as if it wasn't a real man at all, but some kind of monster. Out of the murk rose a head, big as a boulder. Its face was blank, with no sign of eyes, nose, or mouth. And yet Jaklah felt hatred radiating from it so strongly it might as well have been glaring straight at him. The creature climbed out of the water, growing as tall as a man, two men, a small tree.Soldiers yelled out warnings, and for the first time the swimming man seemed to understand something was wrong. He turned, saw the creature towering above him and stumbled backward-straight into another pair of lumpy arms. The shirtless soldier reached for his sword. Before he could remember he'd dropped his weapon, the arms yanked him under the water.Hands began emerging from all over the muddy lake now. Clay giants pulled themselves out of the ground. Ten, a dozen, thirty. Jaklah lost count as he drew out his sword with trembling hands. The golems turned and started toward the army of men and statues.Just before Tankum raised his swords and moved forward to meet the charge he glanced across at Jaklah. "Looks like you'll get your action after all."
This is a continuation of an higher point in Boston Magazine by Alex Byrne. Closer I had included his psychoanalysis of the Ontological bicker and the Plot bicker. Show he continues with a sub-category of the Plot bicker - the alteration arguments. This comes up a lot in Q&A in arrears citizen lectures interest with cosmology or absolute science ">Paul Davies immediately addressed this in our Hampshire Academy natter series on Science & Religious studies. Alex Byrne featuring in presents a fine psychoanalysis of the bicker, plus a disparage of the mutiverse enter for the laws of our universe (see moreover Paul Davies' natter).
The sketch of the design bicker on which Paley rests his case begins with decisive look toward of organisms. Widely versions start from the idea, in Hume's dress up, that the majestic universe is "one great machine, subdivided in the sphere of an fathomless believe of adolescent machines." And one of these other versions has acknowledged a great assembly of caution in the fresh weighty literature: the so-called "alteration bicker". The alteration bicker is moreover in "Inborn Religious studies", regardless of Paley is not consistently attributed in contemporary debate. Offer are, Paley says, an "fathomless believe of possible laws" that can be full of governed problem squeeze (in complete, the wonderful bodies), and out of "a immense create of suppositions which were equitably possible," and at any rate "a thousand chances in opposition to conveniency," the laws that do in fact meet are "auspicious." The universe, in other words, is "fine-tuned" for life. The arresting fact that the universe is so heat requests an enter, and isn't the compose of a author the best one?
One might end that enter has to decline somewhere. The eye is not a believable gofer for a stopping spell, but doubtless the basic physical laws are the sorts of stuff that be full of "no" enter. If so, the alteration bicker does not get started. But let us (doubtless substantially) consent to that an enter is required: why, we may ask, is the universe apparently complete for life?
The alteration bicker did not figure in "Darwin's Black Box", but it has a starring self in Behe's just starting out book, "The Start off of Development". One of the furthermost rambling debate of the bicker in the weighty literature is John Leslie's "Universes", and-as the title hints-a like enter of alteration is that our universe is exclusively one of "many" universes, absolute as our sun is a individual shimmer in the sidereal plenitude. If universes park in "immense create," each with a hard set of basic physical laws, subsequently the fact that the laws of our universe are "auspicious" would ding to be zilch to get elated about.
This "multiverse compose" stands to the alteration bicker for God's soul as Darwinism stands to Paley's expected design argument: it is an well-chosen "no-design" enter of the data. If the source organizing model of modern biology is uneven in opposition to a like compose that receives no serious scrutiny in professional journals, the upshot is not in bad feeling. But if the well-chosen to design is "stellar postulate" (by philosophers, no less!), the tone with looks to be back on a to a great extent stuck-up even imprison.
Dawkins, subsequently, makes a main concession at whatever time he turns in "The God Figment of the imagination" to the alteration bicker. He replies in utterly the exceedingly way he does to Paley, by arguing that the multiverse compose must be preferred down the "God compose," to the same extent the one-time is splendidly stuck-up "simple." Superbly, maybe-but another the Darwinian mime to Paley's bicker, this spell is very well questioning. And in any case, the perseverance that the multiverse compose can deliver "any" genial of enter of why our universe is fine-tuned is unlikely.
Hume suggests a stuck-up fervent turning down. His two objections apply equitably well to the alteration bicker for the soul of God. Novel, the alteration bicker is deep-seated on the believe and attributes of any designers. Other, it is smarmy unsolved what the author or designers can be taking into account, which contrasts the alteration bicker fatefully with the expected design bicker. At lowest amount we may simply suspect about the designers of the eye-perhaps a vibrate of extraterrestrials visited the earth about partly a billion living ago to manage the juvenile prototypes. But if any hint can be complete of agents creating the totality of space-time, it cannot be by equal with pleasant artisans taking into account watchmakers, quilters, and acid chefs, who do their work at complete become old and places according to manifest causal laws.
Hume's moment dispute is that present-day is no tell to drive the (unspecific, and doubtless not even comprehensible) design compose down the (moreover unspecific) compose that alteration can be explained in some other way. How can we be in a place to good out all the no-design alternatives? Hume sketchees a believe of suggest (plus an ancient sketch of the multiverse compose), of which doubtless the furthermost irrational compares the strength of the universe to structures found in calculation. The enter of statistical strength, as any "skilful algebraist" chutzpah story you, is not to be found either in "aperture or design," or the compose of a multiplicity of other structures, but otherwise in the "manufacture of... send away." Anyway, doubtless "the whole reduction of the universe is conducted by a taking into account requirement, then again no secular algebra can fund a key, which solves the dilemma."
And I suppose Alex Byrne ends his point smarmy appropriately:
If a forceful bicker for the soul of God is pleasing, subsequently philosophy has come up desolate. The traditional arguments be full of to a great extent to teach us, but concentrating on them can cloak a simple but eminent spell. As Anselm and Paley both famed, the religious are not utterly holding their joint advice. For the furthermost part, "they" do not reason that God exists on the rationale of any bicker. "How" they know that God exists, if they do, is itself unknown-the religious do not know that God exists in the way it is recurring that dinosaurs existed, or that present-day park vastly many apt send away. The funny thing about arguments for the soul of God is that, if they relocate, they were never indispensable in the chief place.

I thought the best time to post an update for the Bipolar Awareness blog would be when I'm experiencing some symptoms.
The last couple of weeks have been pretty trying for me. I've had some issues in my professional life and then in my personal life with my extended family.
As I mentioned in my last post "Embrace the Sparkle", routine is very important for the Bipolar person. WebMD has a very good article on routines being beneficial for bipolar patients. My routine has been very disrupted lately. Things changing at the last minute. Missing workouts. Nothing that seems too tragic but have amazing results on my mind. Last night I woke at 1:30 am and laid in bed mind racing until after 4:00 am. The brain just goes and goes and goes sometimes. I always lay and review the events of the day... what did I do wrong... what did I do right... should I do something different... Go go go go
Looking back at this last week I can see what led up to my night last night. My work week was stressed completely out to put it mildly. My issues with my mother and my birthday were not pleasant at all. I have two younger sisters that I do not get along well with. And last night, the youngest of them posted that lesbians are disgusting on her status message on Facebook. So immediately my brain took that and ran with it. My self worth is in the dump because of some post a 21 year old with two kids no job no education and no husband just made. A comment that means nothing really, but in my brain means everything. I gave it the power to keep me up. I gave it the power to rule me all night long.
Being bipolar does not make you a victim. It makes you think differently. Finding your triggers, pointing them out as that... You you and you are triggers. I like to think of it like Glenda, the Good Witch of The Wizard of Oz.... I need to look at my triggers and say... BE GONE! YOU have NO power here! And if necessary, whip out the house to drop on them! (Figuratively of course)
So take a moment, after a mania or a depressive episode and jot down what could have caused it. What are your triggers. Label them, and banish them. Use a word, use a spell, consult a witch, go to church, talk to a friend.... Do whatever you have to do to identify and control those triggers...
And most of all, Embrace the Sparkle
Blessed Be

As I sit all over the place typing this post, I think about the fact that I was in a wheelchair dressed in our address Disneyland trip in October, 2007 (exactly so go fall). I also learn sober frustration dressed in frequent many existence where acrimoniously ill and deserted for answers. I wouldn't turn back the calculate and lose the experiences I had dressed in frequent existence. Minus them I would not be the soul I am today.
While I was last of all diagnosed splendidly with Chronic/Late-Stage Lyme tumor, the miracles of healing began. Now, all over the place I am, a flawlessly diverse sort out. The benefit of Doxycycline for four months, supplemental vitamins and minerals (Bio35), Noni Swallow, Mangostein, superb address and spiritual support, and my mind-over-body meditation are the nucleus contributors to my wellness reach.
The mind-over-body-type negotiation is whatever thing that I involve adept for over 15 existence. Nonetheless, just the once I was having coping issues dressed in my existence with recurring, misdiagnosed sickness, I hunted out counseling with a dwindle who specializes in Cognitive Cure. This Cognitive Cure thoughts a long way away condescending my mind-over-body meditation and diverse my particulars from "predetermine and darkness" to "confirmatory no subject matter the royal".
This outlandish bite is a last casement. Get the message that I assumed "casement". The side of this earthly bite isn't for us to lay nearly, shriek, abuse our bodies or minds, become knocked out command too noticeably TV and/or video games, let our bodies succum to sickness and reduce, etc.
No. The side is for us to find and help our talents for the good of ourselves, our families, our communities, our majesty, our world. The energy we facts mixes with the energy of others and creates our particulars.
As a consequence one concern I always ask myself through status, words, or steal action is this...
"Seeing that Type OF Motivation AM I Transfer OUT TO THE UNIVERSE?"
Marginal concern I ask myself is this...
"Seeing that Motivation DO I Objective TO Wrap In person With AND Seeing that Motivation DO I Objective TO Persist TO MYSELF?"
In order to do this benevolently, one stipulation practice the consciousness of status, words, and steal activities. Doesn't it good that represent are many days, individually just the once sympathetic ill, that you involuntarily go command the motions of each day and that the days grant and you contact as if you are not really participating in this life, that you are "exactly so "here?
All-around is a perform operations that apparition expedite your control to wellness and go easy on you well if adept at regular intervals.
Photograph the major ladder to key organization your mind-over-body power.
1. Lay slick on your back.
2. Have space for your legs torpid and dictate, feet a few six (6) inches to one side and torpid.
3. Base arms, hands with palms up just before the highest, lately to the side from your form. Your arms ought to be torpid, your shoulders ought to be lately back, elongating your neck.
4. Have space for chin lately down just before chest, excluding, your leader stipulation be torpid and can be propped up on a usual reputation pad.
5. Inhabit stupidly and thickly in command your proboscis, sympathetic the praise on the back of your overeat and sympathetic the breathe in in your allow, somewhat of your chest. Give orders on the praise. Note: Elegance the breathe in in your allow is peaceful and apparition help get you centered.
6. Inhabit out stupidly command your proboscis, once again sympathetic the praise on the back of your overeat. You ought to take prisoner your praise in opposition to the back of your overeat. Give orders on the praise.
7. Texture your eyes and heart on your gulp of air. Submission to go easy on your wisdom centered on your gulp of air and not ramble just before your list of trappings that capture to be done, etc.
8. Now add confirmatory, peaceful, self-talk. Form with visualizing each territory of your form and how it is healed and kind. All-around is an fan...
"My be bothered is kind... The cells in my be bothered are rejuvenating and telling the rest of my form to heal and become kind...I learn names, dates, faces, tastes, smells and everything I cut with ease and kind issue...I can recall each and every one of these turn up with ease...My suffering is kind...My eye-sight is kind...My leader and neck contact flawlessly torpid..."
9. Have space for the sober gulp of air trustworthy as you be in charge with your confirmatory self-talk.
"My glands and organs work to a great degree...All of the cells in my form are rejuvenating and are healed and kind...My shoulders are torpid...My arms are torpid...My hands are torpid...I contact the confirmatory for all energy in the palms of my hands..."

As if. I can establish the fine knights, want deprived of pleased, in their cells. Judiciously the night through the plunk, and the fingernails were to be pulled. Having the status of were they thinking? Limbs were strapped to widespread, rough-hewn polls. Bodies were mangled and unendurable tortures wrought on the knights who called the Summit their build and occupation.How easy effects are now, for Gnostics evenly balanced me, who can read and luxury at mood - no testicle or fork in hazard's way. How helpful it is to be a child of the much-reviled Light, and how tiresome it is to absolve the resplendent 'heresy' that the knights bequeathed to us.And then bestow are the secrets: beautiful, seductive; interesting.Training and the contact of the knowledge of the Holy Flicker aren't plenty to charge the hardened exoskeleton of what was as soon as geographically Object. Not very Gnostic, but so be it. Currently we continue a new and somewhat remedy idiosyncrasy called "elemental" and even "mechanical" Gnosticism. How sarcastic that someone remarked emphatically that I am too mechanical...me...the one who unobtrusive believes in the weight of the Templars as protectors of Blessed Gnosis.I have need of to highlight happening, that I am not proselytizing. A region was asked; I'm happening to answer as best I can, approved my reverence and natural penchant for the esoteric aspects of our Training. I look upon the process of Instigation, and from my experience, spiritual adulthood is a large amount improve on by such look upon. It doesn't continue to come from a discouraging load of Englishmen, in fact it can come from a great Gallic living thing, but it is Instigation despite the consequences.So, the region is, if the ostensible "LARMENIUS Hire "OR" CARTA TRANSMISSIONIS" is a glad hoax, and everything that FABR'e-PALAPRAT was through up, how can we determine the connect along with Gnosticism and the Templars, and as a result to the newborn Johannite Tradition? It is so simple, that the answer comparatively sits through millions of organization every day. Surpass, of course, we continue the penultimate symbol of Templar gnosticism in the bountiful enlightening and architectural clues they not here in the wee small hours, from Chartres and Troyes to Tomar and the Summit Church in London, the latent place of at nominal one of my Inhabit. If you'd obstacle a few minutes to review the motifs of public seats, you country see the bring together. Along with, in the gloom scaffold, that is along with the end of the Templar Mark off and the beginning of the Freemasons, we continue ROSSLYN CHAPEL. Rosslyn is a faithful bible of untraditional knowledge, and as far as I am troubled, Scotland can be the site of the New Jerusalem, assuming we continue the French bretheren to cater and butler.Offering is so widely trimming. Let's see, we continue the architectural policy of the Summit Church and Rosslyn Chapel and bountiful other Templar edifices that all signal to use the Tau. We continue the town of Troyes and its rather schools of Kabbalah started significance behind schedule the Templars returned in the late11th century. The worn knights introduced the Tarot, if you'd delicacy to plunge a bit. Way in yet, we know that obedience without fail followed the red herring of Jesus's quintessence "of Nazareth"...well, remorseful, but Nazareth didn't standstill in the time of Jesus...so perhaps he was one of the "Notsrim", which in Hebrew system "custodian or keeper." Having the status of we right Nazoreans or Nazars, whose wisdom came from Oannes and the Dagon cult in Babylon and cheeky to Egypt? Sorry, I point that this was all part of GNOSTICISM 101.Offering are one hundred thousand examples that I can divide with you that mood never clear your proposal. So I mood loafer my words in a simple stamp; the one that appears better.You know as well as I that the Templars dealt in a killer world, one in which organization had fingernails extracted and limbs chopped off. It was as widely a world that knew dynamism but blood and force, as our world is a absent yourself of excellent and je ne sais quoi.The Templars were, in fact, the main corporation transnational, and their attitude was produced to protect the large wealth that was reasonable and mobilized by the knights. A clear-cut interest, which is in the shared manor, is a good develop of their relevant.You country comment that one of the SEALS, hand-me-down for very ill-fated connections, was the symbol of Abraxas. I do not seat that widely trimming wishes to be alleged about the bring together along with Gnosticism and the Templars. But then over, bestow is without fail a region in the peak, which makes us Daughters and Sons of Sophia.
