I'm concerned that corrupt politicians,
dishonest mainstream news media,
& greedy corporations are manipulating me
in ways I'm not even aware of ?
Asking all my friends
to share
your humble opinions ...
"Do U also suspect they are ?
In what ways do U see them doing this ?
How can I avoid being manipulated by others ?
What steps can I take to stop this ?"
๐ Thx .
O.K.
asking my friends to share
your humble opinions...
" What do U consider the greatest form of wealth ?"
U have the power to choose,
U have the power to question.
if U don't use your powers now
U will lose them, they will be taken away.
"Use it or lose it"
if U were given $1,000,000.00 (1 million) @ birth
& never had to work as a wage slave all your life ....
what would U do ????

Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word โhappyโ would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. Of course it is understandable that we seek happiness and avoid unlucky and disagreeable chances, but the more you deliberately seek happiness the more sure you are not to find it. It is therefore far better to take things as they come along, with patience and equanimity. ~Carl Jung

โPut a rat in a cage and give it 2 water bottles. One is just water and one is water laced with he**in or co***ne. The rat will almost always prefer the drugged water and almost always kill itself in a couple of weeks. That is our theory of addiction.
Bruce comes along in the โ70s and said, โWell, hang on. Weโre putting the rat in an empty cage. It has nothing to do. Letโs try this a bit differently.โ So he built Rat Park, and Rat Park is like heaven for rats. Everything a rat could want is in Rat Park. Lovely food. Lots of s*x. Other rats to befriend. Colored balls. Plus both water bottles, one with water and one with drugged water. But hereโs what's fascinating: In Rat Park, they donโt like the drugged water. They hardly use it. None of them overdose. None of them use in a way that looks like compulsion or addiction. What Bruce did shows that both the right-wing and left-wing theories of addiction are wrong. The right-wing theory is that itโs a moral failing, youโre a hedonist, you party too hard. The left-wing theory is that it takes you over, your brain is hijacked. Bruce says itโs not your morality, itโs not your brain; itโs your cage. Addiction is largely an adaptation to your environment.
Now, we created a society where significant numbers of us can't bear to be present in our lives without being on something, drink, drugs, s*x, shopping... Weโve created a hyperconsumerist, hyperindividualist, isolated world that is, for many of us, more like the first cage than the bonded, connected cages we need.
The opposite of addiction is not sobriety. The opposite of addiction is connection. And our whole society, the engine of it, is geared toward making us connect with things not people. You are not a good consumer citizen if you spend your time bonding with the people around you and not stuff. In fact, we are trained from a young age to focus our hopes, dreams, and ambitions on things to buy and consume. Drug addiction is a subset of that."

Timeless advice. Ignore at your own peril.
The Stoics believed that possessions were fleeting; that our opinion about a thing, and not the thing itself, mattered. All available research on individual happiness says the same: Itโs not the things you have that make you happy; itโs the experiences. After a certain income level, more money really does mean more problems. Studies show it certainly doesnโt lead to more happiness.โโโโโโโโ

Always remember, that you can positively recalculate your wealth right now by adjusting your wants, by questioning your needs. The less you want, the more youโll have. The less dependent you are on external things, the more resilient and powerful you become.โโโโโโโโ

"Your light does not come
from your successes.
Your light is not ignited
by perfection,
or achievement or body shape.
Your light is not fuelled by
popularity or acceptance.
Neither is your light at any
risk of being put out,
when other lights around you,
are bright.
Your light is simply made of the
you-ness that makes you you,
the worries you have in the night,
the music which sparks your joy,
the books you had to read twice,
the memories stored safely
in your heart,
the people you love and the
people who love you.
Your light is never dependant
on how you look,
or how you perform.
Itโs just there,
and itโs quite simply brilliant,
and itโs all yours.
And it lights up every room
you walk into,
whether you activate it or not.
What a wonderful thing.
Shine bright little fighter,
this dark world needs your glow."
๐ Donna Ashworth, from I Wish I Knew
โYou are a function of what the whole universe is doing in the same way that a wave is a function of what the whole ocean is doing.โ โ Alan Watts

Weโve bought into the idea that education is about training and โsuccessโ, defined monetarily, rather than learning to think critically and to challenge. We should not forget that the true purpose of education is to make minds, not careers. A culture that does not grasp the vital interplay between morality and power, which mistakes management techniques for wisdom, which fails to understand that the measure of a civilization is its compassion, not its speed or ability to consume, condemns itself to death. ~Chris Hedges

Our Story
This page is intended to help others to be liberated from suffering, to uplift the mind and the heart and to expand awareness of oneself to grow physically, mentally, and spiritually. We believe that most of the teachings from Great Religions, Spiritual traditions, Myths and fairy tales offers something beneficial and beautiful teachings that when learned and actualized by the individual, will lead him to a more better quality of life. Most of their teaching is what we will share and these are love, wisdom, ethical principles and knowledge/awareness of oneโs own being. What the world needs is the complete transformation of of the individual, from being an intellectual animal or mechanistic automaton into a real human being who is guided by the good. Peace be with us all. May all beings be happy. May all beings be free!
