The Writings Of Enoch Offer Messages Of Hope And Inspiration

By Timothy Sakach

While so many people have never heard of Enoch, it is his calendar that was utilized at Exodus. His prophecies included that he saw his books being published during our time. His prophecies provide information about our own current days and what we have to expect in the coming months and years. When deciphered properly, it is evident that Enoch's writings and prophecies were meant for future generations, and those generations include those of us living today.

Despite his exclusion from the Bible, Enoch's writing has a profound influence on the Scriptures. We see this influence in the writings of Moses, as well as many of the prophets and apostles. Enoch espoused the ideal that those who love truth must write these truths. He offers a powerful message of hope for all of us, and those messages were intended to be shared from his time to ours.

Enoch is discussed in several Scriptural texts, including the Testament of Twelve Patriarchs, the Book of Jasher and the Book of Jubilees. Peter and Jude quote from Enoch in the New Testament. His influence is strong throughout the both Hebrew Scriptures and the New Testament, neither of which would have been the same without his words. If these beloved prophets and apostles trusted his authority and inspiration, why would we have reason to question his teachings?

According to Enoch, the righteous upon reading and understanding his works, will see them as both an inspiration and a revelation. This is both advanced theology as well as prophecy, transcending time and the opinions of any single generation.

Of course, there have been dissenters of Enoch throughout history. One surprising critic was famed theologian Robert H. Charles who translated both Noah's and Enoch's writing. He contended his introduction of these translations that the writings were produced in 200 B.C. by scribes and not the actual works of Enoch or Noah. If we support his ideas, however, it would compel us to believe that all of the other books of the Old Testament were produced likewise. We do know, through IV Ezra, that they were restored by scribes after the Israelites returned to the Promised Land after exile.

Many scholars miss another obvious conclusion. These writings of course had to be copied from earlier manuscripts in order to preserve them. While we understand that they likely added their own "corrections" and commentary throughout the Torah, the writings of Enoch are somewhat different. After all, these were preserved by Noah and his sons and also known to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and his sons. They known by Moses, the Prophets and the Apostles, so his teachings were revered throughout biblical history.

The Spiritual Benefits connected with a Cosmic 2 x 4

By Rev's Bil & Cher Holton

Perhaps you have proclaimed, Wow! I've been struck with a Cosmic 2 x 4? This kind of expression is conventional theology dressed up in New Thought clothing. The expression "cosmic two-by-four" suggests there's something or someone beyond us hoping to get our interest in order to teach us an essential lesson. The implication is the fact that God, the universe, something "out there" plans to manage us for our very own good, even if it implies doing harm to us or causing us discomfort. The concept that something desires to acquire our awareness to compel us to accomplish what's "right" so that it can show us something is often a viewpoint that abdicates individual choice along with responsibility. Additionally, if we don't "get it" the very first time, the attack gets steadily worse till we ultimately take notice.

We wish to declare, "Get Over It!" There isn't any Cosmic Two-By-Four. Make sure you examine that phrase again! Once more. Thanks. There isn't any Cosmic Two-By-Four-pine, oak, treated wood, galactic laser, or otherwise. Since there is really only One Power and One Presence in the universe, God the Good, this "wooden" expression moves against the grain of the most ancient and most respected Truth Principles. We don't believe that God, the Good, punishes us using two-by-fours, hardwood paddles, willow branches, baseball bats, or some other "wooden explanations."

The strictly human, definitely not cosmic, two-by-four is within our very own hands! It's our bad choices along with errant activities which punish us and pain us, not God. So long as we continue to keep making poor choices we'll continue to keep getting bad outcomes.

A 2 x 4 moment is an opportunity to experience an "aha" however, we can keep creating 2 x 4 moments if we neglect to learn from our experiences. "Aha's" are the result of a change in perspective, an insight which comes from an intuitive leap in consciousness. Two-by-four moments occur when we suddenly realize that our own stale thought patterns and belief systems are no longer valid. If we keep beating ourselves up with the metaphorical 2 x 4, perhaps it's time to pause and reflect on the thoughts, choices, and actions we've taken which lead to our self-flagellation. This awareness is an inside-out realization.

One of several self-denigrating presumptions we encourage you to compost would be the belief in a cosmic 2 x 4 - that there's something or anyone "out there" hoping to get your attention to teach you a crucial lesson. Not one person has ever been struck by using a cosmic 2 x 4. It doesn't result from that direction.

Here's a substitute expression you can consider: "I've created a 2 x 4 moment!"

Spiritual Life Coaching: Self Realization

By Jason Lincoln Jeffers

In the movie, "The Matrix," Morpheus says to Neo, "You are living in a prison that you cannot smell or taste or touch; a prison for your mind." Just after college, I worked at a psychiatric hospital where I observed and recorded the behavior of schizophrenic patients. It was apparent to me that they were incarcerated in their own minds.

The schizophrenic patients displayed abnormal behaviors such as: incongruent speech, delusional talking, pacing, posturing, blank staring, talking to self, and repetitive movements. But there are plenty of people who society deems as "mentally healthy" who are to varying degrees, also locked in their prison minds. They may not do a lot of pacing or blank staring but they do frequently resort to emotional and physical violence to defend their own opinions. If other people have opposing opinions, they are immediately declared as "the enemy." Stirring up conflict, debate, drama, and emotional violence is what they live for. Now, I ask you, which is the worse form of insanity?

Ultimately, the purpose for us all being here on Earth at this time is to evolve in to conscious beings. Once you can recognize your ego, you will start to realize that it alone is responsible for all the drama, conflict, abuse, and chaos that has been a part of your life. Consciously recognizing your ego in action and the dysfunction of it is the key to self transcendence. A Spiritual Life Coach can help you to move beyond your egoic mind so that you can begin to understand who you are on your highest level, and from there you'll find that there is no suffering.

Moving toward non-suffering means becoming One with your higher Self. This is the meaning of becoming "Self Realized." Unconscious infliction of emotional violence onto others will inevitably bring suffering to both the prey and the predator. The predator will eventually, in some way, come to suffer the consequence of the action. This is called karma. This perpetual suffering eventually leads to humility. From a place of humility you naturally become still, present, and reverent. You start respecting and honoring what is. From here, you begin to allow the universe to manifest the serendipity that would have been there all along if you had only been open to it. Humility also affords you to appreciate the beauty and wonder in everything, including your "imperfections."

You don't have to wait until you return to your home in heaven to be in heaven. And you don't have to wait until the rapture to ascend or become One with your higher Self. All you have to do is refrain from identifying with your ego. See its emotional pain-body as an exit sign for releasing your imprisoned Self. If you have a heavy pain-body, you will suffer until you become conscious. From suffering, comes awakening. Looking back on the pain-body that I carried for over thirty-five years, I am grateful now for the wisdom that it has revealed to me. As the saying goes, "What doesn't kill you, only makes you stronger." It wasn't until I was able to face my pain for what it was; recognize it, accept it, and live with it consciously, that I was able to finally transcend it and let it all go. Ignoring, resisting, or attempting to escape the pain only serves to strengthen it.

The ego inevitably leads to suffering because intrinsically it is a false self. The wounded ego from childhood trauma creates an "unknown face" that Carl Jung called the shadow. Then we project all of this repressed trauma onto others in the forms of judgment, condemnation, blame, intolerance, and derision. The reason we suffer is so that we can fully experience the dark side of our nature which is the impetus for the soul's return movement back to Spirit. After we've experienced our dark side, we can then finally move past the ego and evolve. Therefore, evolution is the ultimate reason behind all suffering. Suffering is never at random or in vain. To the contrary, all forms of suffering have their origins at some point in the collective. All suffering is part of a higher effort to bring us all home--to awaken us to our eternal Self.

Spiritual Counseling - Ancient Mysticism meets Quantum Physics

By Jason Lincoln Jeffers

Einstein once said, "The most incomprehensible thing about the world is that it is comprehensible." What if science, philosophy, and spirituality have been on tangential paths in their pursuit of the truth about creation, each one stemming from distinct perceptions of reality but ultimately converging at a singular point of divine truth?

I believe that it's just a matter of time before a unified field theory or "one theory of everything" is proposed and proven to be true. There is indeed a divine order to the cosmos, an underlying intelligence. Some define this intelligence as physics and leave it at that. But is it so hard to comprehend that science and divine intelligence (God) are one and the same? After all, in the end, everything stems from the Source.

In quantum mechanics there is a property known as entanglement or non-local connection. This is not a theory but a real phenomenon. The physicists John Bell and Alain Aspect established that the universe at its most basic level is nonlocal. It proves that information doesn't need to travel from point A to point B because it doesn't need to travel at all. It is omnipresent. This interpretation presents us with the vision of a participatory universe in which everything is unified and interdependent; a seamless Whole.

Einstein called entanglement "spooky action at a distance," and it has been demonstrated repeatedly through experimentation. It is the way in which two or more particles of energy sharing common origins become correlated to predictably interact with each other, even if these particles are separated over large distances. In other words, they remain interlinked, interconnected, one with each other, even though they appear to be separate.

What's truly amazing about their entanglement is that their communication is much faster than the speed of light. It appears to be operating instantaneously, at the speed of, well, thought. It's as if the spacetime in between the two objects being measured doesn't even exist. Perhaps this is because these interacting objects are connected somewhere beyond the realm of spacetime. Or in a word: Consciousness.

In a sense, the human body is entangled with the Earth because the body responds to the Earth's natural biorhythms and circadian cycles. No doubt, the female's menstrual cycle is quantum entangled with the cycles of the Moon. The ancient art of astrology is an example of entanglement with the planets, stars, and constellations of the heavens.

In his September 19, 2009 Sirius XM radio show, Deepak Chopra interviewed physicist Michio Kaku, and commented on this nonlocal phenomenon, saying, "You know, the more I hear about quantum entanglement, it sounds like a mathematical description of omniscience, omnipresence, omnipotence." Dr. Kaku responded, "That's what it leads to. Their theory says that I exist because you look at me, somebody looks at you so you exist, so who looks at her? Who looks at us? Well, God."

Quantum physics was discovered through the study of the motion of elementary particles at the atomic and subatomic level, so it is assumed that this nonlocal phenomenon must also be confined to the submicroscopic world. I believe this to be a narrow-minded view of what entanglement is really revealing to us. Nonlocal connections between humans have been experienced in such phenomena as synchronicity, mental telepathy and psychic phenomena. Mystics, oracles, artists, yogis, sages, and shamans have been transcending the local mind and accessing nonlocal Unity Consciousness for millenia.

The property of quantum entanglement is clear evidence in support of Unity Consciousness. It demonstrates that the physical universe (spacetime) is preceded by a "behind the scenes" mind. How else can these particles interact as if a Unified Field of Consciousness didn't exist? The property of entanglement even defies Einstein's theory that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light.

Mind before matter is the correct order of the equation to creation, not matter manifesting itself randomly or spontaneously before mind. Physical matter is nothing less than an expression of divine intelligence giving it the command: "Make it so."

Spiritual Life Coaching: Exercises for Self Transcendence

By Jason Lincoln Jeffers

The following Spiritual Life Coaching exercises, if practiced regularly, can help you to become conscious of your ego, create a space between your egoic mind and your pure consciousness, and begin your path toward self transcendence:

When you find yourself desiring material things that you can't afford, consider it. Ask yourself, "Do I really need this? Or do I want this because it makes me feel superior to others?" If the answer is the latter, then let the desire go.

When you find your inner dialogue comparing or contrasting another to your status in life, stop. Be still and watch what your ego is saying. Become a silent observer. Don't resist, just watch. Know that this is your ego's need to feel either superior or inferior to others and nothing more. In truth, everyone is equal. No one is superior or inferior to you in any way.

When your inner dialogue says negative things to you such as, "I'm not smart enough, good enough, or talented enough to do this or that," or, "It's the story of my life," or, "It's always something," stop. Be still and observe the ego silently from a detached, higher perspective. Know that this negative reinforcement is manifesting your own dismal reality and the reason that the problems keep coming back is because of this inner dialogue.

When you find your thoughts obsessing over a negative perception of your body such as your weight or looks, stop. Be still. Observe these thoughts from a detached perspective. Be cognizant that these obsessive thoughts are keeping you stuck in a state of dissatisfaction and that your ego distorts reality into a false self-perception. Your reality is being created by this negative identification.

The next time someone tries to initiate an argument with you, stop. Be still. Don't contribute to their emotional violence. Understand that it is their ego that needs to feel superior to you. Act from the level of the heart and see through the veil of the egoic mind. By not reacting to their need for emotional violence, you've already won. This is the power of self transcendence.

When a dark thought about another arises, do not dwell in judgment. Remain still and centered in your heart. Then ask yourself: "Have I not exhibited this same behavior before?"

Stop thinking about another when you first meet them. By taking egoic thoughts out of the equation, you allow a space of non-judgment and acceptance between you and your new acquaintance. Withhold the projecting of your past experiences with others on to your new experiences with others. Begin every new experience in a pure place of non-thinking, peaceful presence. That's called unconditional love.

Realize that events alone are not enough to disturb people but rather their reaction to the events. When you find your mind in a state of discord, conflict, anger, or frustration, never hold anyone or anything but your own judgment accountable. An unconscious person always blames the other for his or her own problems. To blame oneself is only the beginning of enlightenment. The master blames neither the Self nor the other.

How You Know To Trust A Clairvoyant Reading

By Minnie Lowery

Whether or not you can trust a clairvoyant reading is really up to you. You must take the evidence you see before you and judge for yourself. Some choose to believe that other people have the ability to see certain paranormal things, such as the future or spirits.

With most people, there is either a belief in the paranormal or none. There is very little gray area when it comes to this. While some people are willing to explore what could be possible, others would rather believe only in the things they can see and will not open their minds to anything else.

Believing in the paranormal should not label someone as insane, as many of the most intelligent people on earth will profess a strong belief that spirits walk the earth and can contact the living. There are many entertainment shows based on this belief. It is a fact that some people hear voices that may or may not be spirits speaking to them. The assumption is that the person has a mental disability that is creating the voices.

Most people will at least listen when a psychic says they may have some clues to the future, even if they are only listening because they are curious. When something a psychic says comes true, many people will attribute it to their foretelling, even if it was something that was fairly obvious to a sensible person.

Some people are sensitive to the environment and the atmosphere in which they live. They have a keen instinct into how the world works. There are people who have a natural ability to read human behavior. They can easily predict what actions the clients might take if they follow the suggestive nature they give them answers with.

You will have a successful clairvoyant reading if you decide you want to believe in the powers of the psychic. If you want to be extra sure, you can always ask for references of other clients who can attest to the trustworthiness of the psychic.
