On this page I shall share information and sites
that exemplify living in a manner that consciously supports life and all
its forms and manifestations. Each sharing shall be an invitation and an
inspiration to live with an intent that nurtures and blesses all of
creation.
To live consciously is be aware of the depth of each
moment, balancing in the spontaneity of creation, not reaching back for
yesterday or leaning into tomorrow. From the place of the now one can
recognize the callings and the nudges and the invitations to experience
fully this life given and chosen. In this place one sees the
interconnectedness of all organisms and chooses to be a nurturing,
compassionate, benevolent being wherever he/she is placed. One
chooses to see all as alive and takes responsibility to interact with
integrity and an intention clearly focused on the highest good for all.
One living consciously takes time for inner nurturing,
is drawn to service, chooses love first, is proactive in relationship with
the earth, buys products that support sustainable resources, has political
savvy and is an active force in taking a stand and influencing
legislation, exercises social action that is people centered, plays with
abandon and cares well for the many dimensions of self.
A human living consciously breathes fully, recognizes
and processes emotions, is active in inner and outer spirituality, chooses
alternative medicine and therapies that are prevention oriented, does not
support any industry or business that promotes and engages in abusive and
unconscious and self-elevating behaviors, believes in prosperity and
abundance for all, gives and receives with equal willingness and joy,
spends time in nature, is willing to be alone, and can say yes or no
without guilt.
Living consciously means trusting the flow of the
Universe and the moment, always looking for the gift, but not ignoring the
pain...choosing to walk through the chaos to stand in the unfolding
awareness. One recognizes and acknowledges limitations and admits mistakes
and uses both as food for growth. This person is clear and respectful in
communication with others and constantly draws upon the intuition to make
decisions and find inspiration. One living consciously knows and utilizes
and finds comfort in the unseen forces existing in different vibratory
fields who are here to assist and encourage and educate.
One living consciously does not get attached to
outcomes or live with expectations but rather finds the beauty of the flow
and the dance. One lives open to the possibility and finds comfort in
knowing the journey is leading to a profound place of awareness. There are
no demands or codependencies or manipulations placed upon any other as
there is simply no need....living in center does not require this.
One living consciously smiles a lot, cries when he/she
wants to, makes noise and has tremendous gratitude for the large and the
small. There is a recognition and willingness to accept, embrace and stand
in personal power, knowing that there is plenty for all. There is an
unabashed willingness to live in the senses and be sensuous and juicy.
To live consciously is to live fully human...to run
with the gift we have been given, no matter what the forms may
take...loving the taste of the adventure and the unknown. Please, do
everything you can to live in this kind of place...it is a
birthright...drink it up
Renaissance Universal
The mystery is solved!
It is we who are
responsible for our future; we are making our tomorrows. Renaissance
Universal is a network of people who believe that we must make an
effort to improve society and the world, for ourselves and for coming
generations. This involves a renaissance based on neo-humanistic
values. Such a renaissance will not only redesign the major
institutions of society but will foster individual growth and self-realisation
as well. Renaissance Universal seeks to communicate and create
expanded opportunities for concerned individuals to co-operate,
discuss and channel their creative talents in positive personal and
social directions

Tantra is a science meant to achieve super
consciousness by the fusion of male (Shiva) and female (Shakti,
Parvati, Kali) physical and mental energies. This harmonizing of
the seven principle energy centers (the seven chakras) in the
healthy female and male bodies raises the kundalini (the divine
primordial supreme power) to the sahasrara (the 1000 pedaled crown
chakra) . This divine fusion brings one to the super mental plane
at which both the male and the female feel extreme truth-super
consciousness-bliss (sat-chit-ananda) and finally realizes Brahman
(self realization). Thus Tantra and other practices like Raj Yoga
(Psychic practice) Jyana Yoga (philosophical ), Karma Yoga
(Selfless work) , etc., are but different paths to the same
absolute Universal truth called Brahman. However, most of the web
sites and tantric teachers of the West have twisted its meaning
and made it just another sex act with a few tid-bits from actual
Tantra and call it sky dancing, kareeza, sex magic (I don't see
any magic) and what not. They have entirely stripped the Hindu
aspect of worship and divinity from Tantra and raised it to a rank
of a fetish. They also take the meaning of the original tantric
texts as literal and do not ponder over the divine hidden meaning
behind it. Thus to them Tantra is a way to enhance sexual
pleasures (which they call bliss) , have multiple orgasms, to
merely strengthen Kegel muscles and so on with little stress on
the final goal.

The One World Flag is an international
symbol of diversity, tolerance, uniqueness, self-esteem, and
cooperation which has been endorsed by a growing number of
individuals, groups, educational, spiritual and diplomatic
leaders for its mission statement, purpose, and widesweeping
inspirational effect.
Where students on their way home from school have always been
able to identify "safe" houses in the neighborhood by a
certain symbol placed in a front window, the One World Flag is
quickly becoming a soothing reminder to others, stating--
"Diversity, Uniqueness, Tolerance, and Cooperation spoken
here."
The flag honors the artistic and spiritual paths of each
individual (the micro), and at the same time, inspires us to
"Think Bigger!" (the macro). It is supportive of those who
pursue whole systems living, betterment, empowerment, growth,
tolerance, potential, expression and creativity, spirit,
etc.... and consciously aims to side-step the fear-based
aspects of political, religious, economic, or other limiting
beliefs/dogma/agendas.

Everybody wants to be in a great
relationship, and almost nobody is. Ever wondered why that
is?
Most people try to put the cart before the horse, that is,
by hoping and expecting a loving romantic relationship to
magically appear and make them happy, take away all their
hurts, and make their lives work. Relationships don't work
this way

Greetings!
The Spiritual Sanctuary has become a place where people from
all over explore their beliefs and share their inspiration.
Our Beliefs
We believe that each person is on a personal journey to
spiritual understanding.
We believe that no one person is completely knowledgeable in
the ways of the mysteries of life.
We believe that no one person or group has the completely
correct way to achieve harmony with all of creation.
We believe that there are many ways to salvation and
resurrection of the spirit.
We believe that religions celebrate common facets of spirit,
and that all the major religions of the world hold
commonalities such as: a desire to be connected with the
spirit of all creation, a wish to have love in life, a wish
for peace and harmony in our lives and in the lives of those
we love, a wish to live a good life in whatever vision that
may be, and to celebrate the transitions life has given to us
such as birth, growth to adulthood, marriage, and death.
We understand that each person holds their beliefs in a
coveted way, and that faith and spirituality are deeply
personal and sensitive for the individual.
We also believe that people are aching to share their feelings
and yearn to do so in a way that will not be judged and
critiqued for their conformity or correctness.
We enjoy sharing with people of all faiths and feel that there
are myriad paths to spiritual fulfillment.
In honoring all these beliefs, we created the Spiritual
Sanctuary.
It is a place where people, of all gender, of all lifestyle,
of all creation, can come together to share and to explore. We
come from the path of Earth, and we welcome others of like
mind and diverse, in perfect love and perfect trust.

When in the course of organic evolution
it becomes obvious that a mutational process is inevitably
dissolving the physical and neurological bonds which
connect the members of one generation to the past and
inevitably directing them to assume among the species of
Earth the separate and equal station to which the Laws of
Nature and Nature's God entitle them, a decent concern for
the harmony of species requires that the causes of the
mutation should be declared.
We hold these truths to be self
evident:
-
That all species are created
different but equal;
-
That they are endowed, each one, with
certain inalienable rights;
-
That among them are Freedom to Live,
Freedom to Grow, and Freedom to pursue Happiness in
their own style;
-
That to protect these God-given
rights, social structures naturally emerge, basing their
authority on the principles of love of God and respect
for all forms of life;
-
That whenever any form of government
becomes destructive of life, liberty, and harmony, it is
the organic duty of the young members of that species to
mutate, to drop out, to initiate a new social structure,
laying its foundations on such principles and organizing
its power in such form as seems likely to produce the
safety, happiness, and harmony of all sentient beings.

Everyone gets the angries. But
sometimes they make us say and do things that we don't
really mean. We can learn how to release those mads in
safe ways, so that no one gets hurt and we feel better.
Ask yourself, "How would the quality of
your life improve if you used your anger in safe,
acceptable ways?"
Yes! You can learn positive things to
do with your anger! If you are human, then you have angry
feelings. What a novel idea! Instead of making your anger
bad, stuffing it down or exploding with frustration, take
The Anger Challenge.
The Anger Challenge is to learn ways to
deal with your mads constructively! What a challenge! To
learn about yourself and the person you are upset with
rather than blowing up. To do many creative things with
your anger rather than hurting others or yourself. Take up
The Anger Challenge and feel better about yourself and be
happier in your relationships. Make choices to let go of
those ugly mads and angries.
Our Web Page, Angries
Out is here to help you do just this! My name is
Lynne Namka. The kids call me "the Lady That Knows About
Mads!" My company,
Talk, Trust & Feel and Angries Out Web page were
developed to give people alternatives to conflict and
violence when they are upset. Our mission is to help
people learn to use their anger in ways that empower them.
