Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

The Virgo Character - The Sixth Enroll of the Zodiac

By Brandon Tate


I can try to hold doing so brief. I perceive how Virgos enjoy effectiveness. Do the job and program are their passions. These folks'll discover it -- or minimum what they define as it -- also if they have to make it up. A Virgo in his heart of hearts wants to be useful. Virgos can be the most selfless, faithful, indefatigable professionals in the industry.

They run errands, they finish chores, they do souvenirs, these folks tidy up, these folks fuss at the time of details -- as a way of displaying these folks treatment. Getting care of all the mundane puny names and emails of life, the program points that or else muddle up the day, partake to the menial wee tasks that nobody notices right up until the work doesn't get done -- is how Virgo shows really like.

Ok. I understand which's not moonlight, roses, poetry and the various stuff of romance ... but those sappy, sentimental details aren't seriously Virgo's style. Virgos imagine far much more in motion compared to in talk ... and in sensible results at the time of flowery promises. To them, enjoyed means never possessing to say, "I desire I had another person to improve me out here."

Virgo will be at the elbow while you still remain drawing inhale to speak, proposition all the assistance you may expect from one human ... and far more. These folks are priceless individuals to possess approximately. Really worth their extra pounds in diamonds. Everybody must have fifty percent a dozen in his sociable network.

When you recognize their uncommon fashion of really like and friendship, you can forgive them the "the absence of romance" thing. The other certain has its advantages. It keeps the tires greased as a axis of life, while the rest of us get on using the function we do do.

Virgos are meticulous, efficient, perfectionistic, cautious, prepared, discriminating, and these folks pay attention to details. If among them considers you're worth something, which's a ringing endorsement of your value. Virgos don't waste materials themselves on folks or conditions with no promise.

They are superb judges of top quality, and are willing to do what it requires to deliver out the greatest in their friends, mates, children, shirt-tail family members, friends, clients, next-door neighbors ... anybody these folks think can benefit from their ... advice. The fact which this typically arrives in the form of criticism ... or also a complaint ... is a piece of social grace usually lost on them.

It may help to understand that, very difficult as these folks are on others, these folks are also tougher on on their own. They can be analytical, vital, fussy, nit-picking, hair-splitting, non-stop unsatisfied expressions of spirit. But they frequently hold on their own to higher inner requirements than every little thing they impose as a people around them. That they are so prepared to toe their own family may buy them a determinant of the tolerance these folks often fail to supply sufficiently to their "targets for improvement."

There's not much hypocrisy in a well-developed Virgo. If he or she sees a flaw in something or somebody, that high quality, trait, oversight, error or whatever will get labeled as such -- simply because that's how these folks believe points get corrected. It's hard for them to believe most folks are written content being less than the quite greatest they can be. And with a Virgo nearly, you definitely won't be able to do which in serenity if you are one of individuals slovenly souls.

Virgos are determined to make the industry a cleaner, better, more nearly great, a lot more effective, ever-improving put in which to reside -- even if it suggests placing prematurely gray hairs in all our heads. And remember what I said ... regarding them becoming tireless? Which becoming the case, in their own little cors of the industry, this personal objective that looks nearly inborn in them, coupled with this unending persistence, usually means they succeed.

The kindest praise one can pay a Virgo soul is to tell him how priceless he is, and how he can often be counted on to look in a job effectively accomplished. Expect after that to hear various illustrations of how he wasn't pleased using his last efficiency and how he's planning and prepared to do greater following time. Thereby achieves he display to he has the finest pursuits at heart -- also as he drs everyone close to the bend with his pickiness.

And expect to hear from him too if he's not glad with the way you're holding up the end of any shared arrangement. Doing so is an example of his critical nature when it isn't so pleasant in its results. A Leo can pompously speak with you how considerably greater he can do the job compared to it is possible to; a Virgo will gripe bitterly about all the details you do wrong --complete with red-penciled examples, dates and instances, order and verse. There's simply no arguing using him when it will come to facts.

Under stress, Virgo power becomes more than vital -- it becomes carping, nagging, nit-picking, hair-splitting, and smug, as if "point-out-the-blemish" has switched into an obsession. It also turns into high-strung, inconsistent, impatient, narrow-minded, sarcastic, impractical, and has problems concentrating. These are all signs and symptoms of a finely-tuned intellect that has been overcome with too significantly input, too much to do, too much to consider. Pushed farther even now, it will lastly break down in complete paralysis.

Virgo fairly generally considers by itself extremely accommodating and even subservient to the demands of others -- that it is from its own point of view. The matter is, as an Earth sign, it is concerned initially and often with practicalities and final results. Thus, carrying out a piece of function the proper way, the ideal way, the initially time is just the course of effectiveness in its pc of values. And, of course, to be efficient is alone the suitable way, the greatest way to function ... constantly. Just ask any Virgo.

Green Peas and Mustard Seeds ... The Decline and Fall of Error, from a Spiritual Perspective

By Revs Bil And Cher Holton


Our capacity for good is mind-boggling. Our wish towards error is, well, mind-boggling. The most notable difference between good and error is the most important difference between a green pea and a mustard seed.

We have arrived at this observation based on what we know about quantum physics and the New Testament. Mainstream scientists today believe the universe began between 13 and 20 billion years ago with a large explosion. In 1951, astronomer Fred Hoyle coined the term for that huge explosion. He called it the 'Big Bang. '

Scientists have worked out that just nano-seconds before the Big Bang took place, our entire universe was compressed into a mass they think to be about the dimensions of a green pea. (Why a green pea? Could it have been a marble -- or a chocolate malt ball?)

Models suggest that the temperature within that pea-sized mass of energy was an unthinkable 18 bn. million million million degrees Fahrenheit. I will guarantee you that it took more than a pea-sized brain to come up with that figure. 18 billion million million million degrees Fahrenheit is many times hotter than the sun. Inside a tiny part of a second following the big bang, research simulations show the temperatures might have cooled to a calm 18 billion degrees, giving birth to our present universe. From a pea-sized lump of super-compressed energy came a physical universe composed of millions of planets millions of light years apart.

According to Hubble's Law, all of the galaxies in the universe as we know it are moving away from us. The universe is not earth-centric. That suggests we aren't at the centre of the universe just because everything is receding from us. The universe has no "edge." It is endless. And we Earthlings are just a speck of cosmic dust in the design.

But here's the thing, the galaxies aren't heading away from us through space. They're moving away because space itself is expanding and taking them, and us, with it. Think of a loaf of unbaked raisin bread you've set in a warm place to rise. The raisins are like galaxies or clusters of universes, and the dough represents space. As the dough rises, the raisins move further apart, but they're moving with the dough, not through the dough.

Many researchers believe the universe is moving back to its cosmological origins. As metaphysicians, we are inclined to agree with that assessment.

Other researchers accept that at some point the universe will reach its limit and begin receding again, squeezing itself into a pea-sized pile again. As metaphysicians, we are inclined to agree with that assessment too. And here's why: What if the universe is just the outgrowth of an error thought? It can continue to grow, to grow, to be inexhaustible. Or it can implode on itself.

What's this have to do with the title of today's blog post?" Our answer is: it has got EVERYTHING to do with it! The fall and fall of error is the difference between a green pea and a mustard seed.

Imagine a green pea represents a boo boo thought. Before we get into difficulty with you vegetarians out there, We are using the green pea analogy because the scientists we mentioned 1 or 2 seconds gone believe our complete universe was compressed into a mass the dimensions of a green pea. Remember!

Hence imagine, metaphysically talking, a green pea represents an error thought. A thought that binds us, and compresses us with the weight of its debilitating negativeness.

In metaphysics, that would be a valid analogy because"are you ready for this from a Non secular, metaphysical interpretation, God did not immediately create the universe.

There we revealed it. From a Spiritual Growth, metaphysical interpretation, God didn't directly create the universe, or create the chair you are sitting in, or the auto you drive, or ANYTHING physical.

In Talks on Truth, Charles Fillmore said: "We are by birth a religious race, and we would never have known matter or material conditions if we hadn't wandered from our higher consciousness."

In Jesus Christ Heals, he says: "Ages of thought upon the reality and solidarity of things have developed a psychological atmosphere that has produced the present material universe."

What we believe he is suggesting is that as religious beings we created the universe as a safety-net to catch our. Fall from grace. The Buddhists call this safety net the Net of Indra. The Hopi Indians call it the Spider Grandma's Web. In Andy and Larry Wachowski's smash hit flick by the same name, it's called 'the matrix. '

Somehow it came into the collective mind that we are separate beings from God. That thought is so far removed from the Truth that it imploded on itself. It shut out the Light, turning into a 'black hole of error'. The boo boo was so great that it collapsed on itself, compressing its illusion into the dimensions of a pea.

But Truth prevails. And as great as our primordial blunder was it will only take a mustard seed of religion to pull ourselves out of the black hole we've put ourselves in.

It only takes a mustard seed of faith to realise we are divine beings having a human experience.

It only takes a mustard seed of faith to realise that since we were given ourselves into this mess we can get ourselves out of this mess.

It only takes a mustard seed of faith to realise we are the Christ expressing at the point of us.

It only takes a mustard seed of faith to stand in our truth.

When we do, we will see 'the decline and fall of boo boo ' on our journey from compressed pea to expansive mustard seed.
