People talk over my head all the time.  They are more intelligent and have experiences I get lost in understanding all the time.

I heard distinct voices in my ears.  I was tested by doctors.  I know there is another realm.

We need to pray as a unit.  We need to try and add members to our prayer circle.  The rest I'm hopefully editing out properly because it's best :)

When reading a book, say a book of philosophy that is set in story form, the reader enters into the world of the writer and for a time, while immersed in the author’s world, takes on the world view presented in the pages. A relationship is formed with a book, a subjective experience that can be either enriching or at…

Laughter

We see ourselves in others, so it is better to be able to laugh than to scorn,

to become playful than to mourn, about what is actually quite funny if truth be told.

Comedians deal with the human condition, making a safe…

Einstein may have been wrong about the theory of relativity, as physicists have observed neutrinos traveling faster than light, but don't throw away your textbooks just yet. Two physics professors at this college, William Waggoner and Jerry O'Connor, chair of physics, engineering, architecture and…

Last week Rudie on the Radio said something that I think was needed to be said and I believe it needs to be said over and over again . He stated "that no one should be seeking to get NDE and that to get one you have to die and there is no guarantees that you would get one because you are not in control of the circumstances to put things in its place. Every moment is involuntary. You may not be a person that needs one because…

BIRMINGHAM, Alabama -- Colton Burpo, the kid who says he went to heaven and sat in Jesus' lap while angels sang "Jesus Loves Me" to him, will be in Birmingham on Friday at noon at Books-a-Million at Colonial Brookwood Village.

He'll accompany his father, Todd Burpo, who wrote a bestselling book about his…

Each carries a burden bringing with its own species of pain unique to each.  To judge another harshly is to forget ones own inner struggle and suffering.  Our failures are important since they lead to the realization of our need for grace and healing.  Allowing us to understand this is true for all those around us who…

A man told his grandson: "A terrible fight is going on inside me -- a fight between two wolves. One is evil, and represents hate, anger, arrogance, intolerance, and superiority . The other is good, and represents joy, peace, love, tolerance, understanding, humility, kindness, empathy, generosity, and compassion. This same fight is going on inside you, inside every other person too."

 

The grandson then asked: "Which wolf will win?" The old man replied simply:  "The one you feed." …

The Golden Rule is a call to deep inner probing. Without self knowledge, without the inner journey, our sensitivity towards others is severely curtailed. All that is possible is to react on the level of the instinctual, allowing anxiety and fear to fuel anger that is either directed outward or driven deep…

Though this small Blog that I am posting is not by all means long and expository. I thought this persons story is rather unlque though it is brief and has interesting answer to his question worth thinking about.

Blink

The outer world seems stable enough,

well, as long as you don’t blink,

then a decade can pass

and what was thought important then,

is worthless…

Abingdon resident Michael Solano describes his "spiritual awakening" after suffering a stroke while nearly choking to death at a crab cake eating contest in Timonium.

Chat Near Death Experience (NDE) John Scott via Australia  chat with Rudi Rudinski 

I try honestly to show humanity that firstly there is no death.

Death is a complete lie fabricated by ignorance and intolerant belief systems that adhere to an old paradigm.

I talk openly about struggles I suffered after…

The philosophical considerations of Parmenides (ca. 510 - 450 BC).

Parmenides is best known for his famous statement, here in Latin, which is the famous version, "ex nihilo nihil fit" (out of nothing comes nothing).

Parmenides reasoned further: Since nothing can come from nothing and since there are evidently things in existence, a nothing as such (a perfect vacuum if you wish), cannot exist in nature. Modern quantum mechanics says the same.

The corollary to this is,…

About 25 years ago I had an experience of the light. It was a lucid dream and I flew into the Sun. The deeper I got…

       My NDE occurred when I was about the age of six, back in late 1968, I was told that I had the Chicken Pox for the second time, the first was a very mild case at the age of about four, this time it was back with a vengeance and with it I also developed “labrynthitis” (inner ear infection) as a complication; together both illnesses lasted close to three weeks.

   Near the end of my illness, when my symptoms seemed to be the worst, the doctor would ask me…

HI Everyone,

Thought I would share my latest info. on what is happening in my research world. I have recently started a study looking at parenting and NDEs. So far it is going well. I just had a wonderful talk with a woman who had an NDE prior to becoming a parent. It is amazing to hear other people's stories, and how the NDE has affected us each in different ways.

Anyway, if you are interested, here is the formal recruitment…
