Do you believe in demons? Dark forces at work invisible to us but operating on other dimensions? I don't know. I wonder if it is possible that they are most drawn towards those who radiate light?????? Are they trying to hold people like this back?????? 'Expect A Miracle' 'The darkest hour is before the dawn'.

Unless....."Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?" Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we're liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." ~by Marianne Williamson in A Return to Love: Reflections On The Principles of A Course In Miracles, p. 165, HarperCollins, 1992 (This was posted by a friend) IP: Logged |

No, I'm a devil Athiest, but I'd like to find a term that means this with out saying it, as I find this "religion" title oxymoronic.Lei Kuei, can you hold your own hand? Listens To Trees, your last post pretty much sums up my philosophy, but I struggle with time. How do we shine completely without dedicating our lives to meditation? Dean. IP: Logged |

Do check it out, when you have time. http://www.myspace.com/DharmaSpace IP: Logged |
