“Your Extrasensory Meditation Power”

A daily practice of meditation can give one an extrasensory edge in life. Without meditation, the human mind is left with only the intellect to guide its way. Whatever one has experienced or learned comprises the intellect, which must then make decisions in life, from minor to major. The sum total of such decisions reflects the entirety of one’s life.

Down through the ages, the truly wise, who have explored the heights and depths of the human mind, have agreed that there is far more to the human mind than the intellect alone. Those who are creative can particularly attest to this, as so much of the creativity they have expressed has come from a source beyond the capacity of their intellect. Similarly, many entrepreneurs, whose ideas are far beyond their capabilities, agree that their commercially applied creativity came from a part of their mind that was outside their intellect.

“Mystical Prayer”

Prayer can and does work, particularly if it is mystical prayer. The world is filled with a wide variety of ways to pray. Each has its own effectiveness or lack of it. The reason any particular form of prayer is effective has not to do so much with the technique or manner of prayer, as with the person praying.

This is the secret of effective prayer; the critical factor is not primarily in the prayer itself, but in the person praying. Whatever state of mind or consciousness a person is in spiritually has far more to do with whether a prayer will be successful than the particular prayer or brand of theology from which the prayer originated.

“Spiritually Managing and Overcoming Difficult Times”

Problems are a natural part of life which, due to their presence, create a necessity for change which in turn acts as a stimulus for spiritual growth. There are times in a person’s life when ordinary problems magnify, so much so, as to seem overwhelming.

Difficult phases may be brought about by one problem, or by a major area of a person’s life that becomes an enormous challenge. Problematic periods may also encompass multiple areas of an individual’s life, each one experiencing significant problems simultaneously. Managing and overcoming difficult times are integral aspects of many people’s lives. It is not likely that an individual will simply glide through physical life without experiencing these challenging stages.

“Seeing the Kingdom of Heaven Before Transition”

What a difference it is to know that what Christ referred to as “the Kingdom of Heaven” does exist! Imagine the impact such knowledge could have on how people live their lives. The value systems of so many people would be profoundly changed if they actually knew that life is eternal and that everyone goes on beyond this life.

It is one thing to blindly accept any theology that teaches that life continues, but quite another to know firsthand that your life will continue beyond your physical body. The vast majority of religious theologies do, indeed, teach that life is eternal, but people are asked to believe on faith alone.
