Many people agree that we are going through some of the most difficult times our nation has faced in decades. Through these rough times we are faced with many different issues that arise. In most cases, one event or reality affects another. We are forced to make decisions and do the best with what we have been given.

The current economic situation provides a good opportunity for Pasadena Churches, religious organizations, private institutions, or faith based organizations. Because most of these organizations are often times in a struggle with finances, these times provide great opportunity for them to establish better placement and network with local businesses.

After driving down Colorado Blvd, which is one of the main streets in Pasadena California, I began noticing all the vacant store fronts that had been abandoned. Over the past weeks I’ve noticed more and more of these empty buildings. The reality is that many businesses are having a difficult time making ends meet in today’s market. It can be a struggle just to keep the doors open.

Our religious organization decided to act upon this. We had been meeting in the backyard of someone’s house. Because we only gather once a week, we decided to make the move to a better location near Colorado Blvd. We went from business to business, trying to find an owner that would partner with us and allow us to rent out the space on the weekend.

As it turns out, we found an owner that was delighted to have us lease their space on the weekend. In fact, her business had been down and our group wanted to meet at a time when her business was closed. We are both helping out each other and working together for the better of each group.

Commercial Real Estate
The idea of partnering is one option. But an even better option exists if the non profit has enough money to support it. It is a long term idea and it can be considered more of an investment. Since the supply of lease availability is high and the demand is low, religious organizations or non profits can get into long term leases at a highly discounted rate. It is often times in the best interest of the owner to get them leased out even if the price is lower than it was a year ago. It is a great time for Pasadena Churches to look for Pasadena Real Estate.

TO RULE THE UNIVERSE - PEACE IS THE FORCE

QUOTE: Hatred never ceases by Hatred but by Love is Healed. This is the Ancient and Eternal law. Dhammapada

In the begining the God and godess held an election who would be best suited to rule the Universe.

The first Candidate was Agnidevaputra, the God of Fire. “I am the strongest”, he said, so I shall rule.

Witness my power. Then, a he begin to chant in a loud voice, ahuge fire rose up from the centre of the Universe and began to burn everywhere.

The other Gods and Godess trembled with fear and they all raised their hands to elect Agnidevaputra except Valahakedeputra the God of Water.

Valahakedeputra said, “I can control fire”. And immediately, he created a huge deluge to extinguish the fire.

As the water rose higher and higher, all the other God and Godess raised their hands to vote for him except Saradadevi. the Godess of Art and Wisdom.

Saradadevi said, fire and water can frighten and kill people but I give birth to beauty. When I begin to dance you will relax and completely forget Fire and Water.

Saradadevi then dance and sing and all the God and Godess became entranced. Instead of drinking water through their mouth,they begin pouring wine into their ears, eyes and nose.

Awed by Saradadevi power the God and Godess raised their hansd to vote except Gandharva, the God of Celestial Music.

Gandharva said “Woman can overcome Man, but Man can also overcome Woman”. Then he begin to play his Heavenly guitar and sing, all the God and Godess swooned as the music flowed through the hall.

As if in a stupor, they all raised their hands, except Santidevaputra, the God of Peace, Mindfulness and clear Comprehension.

Santidavaputra said, “I am the God of Peace. I always practice mindfulness and clear comprehension. Whether all vote for me or no, I rule Myself.

To rule the Universe, you must first rule Yourself. To rule Yourself, you must be able to rule your own mind.

To rule your mind, you must practice mindfulness and clear comprehension. Immediately all the God and Godess recognised Santidevaputra’s strength and elected him unanimously. They understand and realised that Peace is the strongest force of the world.

Be mindfulness to live happily and peacefully.

Mind and Spirit Abilities

You HAVE these abilities. They may be laying dormant because you haven’t been using them, or they have been ignored. Just about anyone can learn to do Magick. People are Magickal beings with Magickal abilities.
Your mind can use the connection of your spirit to communicate with others psychically.
Everyone has Magickal abilities. There is psychic Magick which is done with others through spiritual communication, and then there’s energy Magick. Energy Magick is the ability to manipulate natural Magickal energy to produce change. Deity Magick is the requesting of a result while connected to divinity through ritual, prayer, or meditation.
Most people think that Magick Spells are something out of reach, or something just created in a fairy tale or novel, and doesn’t really fit in today’s world. Have you ever heard of the Law of Attraction? Well it works in much the same way.
Your spirit can learn to do Magick, but you must want to learn it’s Magickal abilities in order for it to become accustomed to the relationship between mind and spirit.
Once you sort through the complexities of the mind-spirit connection, the rest is simple and just takes practice. To communicate with the spirit, you must use sounds, images and other patterns, as the spirit does not relate to, or understand words.
Magickal rituals use patterns that are easy for a spirit to recognize. This is how repetitive Spells work as well as they do. This is also why Magickal ability must be studied and takes time to work out which patterns, images, and symbols work best for what you wish to accomplish.
The spirit has to be taught to identify these various patterns or images of choice so that it knows what actions to take. This is why visualization is so important. You can materialize what you want easier by visualizing it first. You probably already do this whether you realize it or not!
Symbols and images are an extremely powerful way to communicate with the spirit. The spirit can be trained to recognize different Magickal tools along with sounds, patterns, and their use, with much needed practice.
Patterns are a series of images or actions the spirit can learn to relate to.
Anyway the thing is, your mind is not alone in this, nor does it have to be. This is where the spirit comes in. We all dream about having more, getting it faster, bigger, prettier etc., so why not learn to do just that? Get to know your spirit and allow it to wake up to the reality of your mind!
This is where the Law of Attraction comes into play. Everything you do, everything anyone does or is going to do, always starts with thought. We create everything that occurs, materializes or that is man-made from thought. We make choices, take actions, make decisions and carry out plans which all originate with thought. The last pair of shoes you purchased started off as just a thought!

Original Ahiida Hijood Burqini

A full cover swimsuit comprising of a tunic, leggings and head covering in a light polyester fabric, is a phenomenon in women’s full cover swimwear. Women can protect their modesty and still swim without being hampered by loose layers. Now the Burqini’s appeal has touched a wider demographic. A woman might buy a Burqini for better sun protection, to hide weight, cellulite or scars, or simply as an alternative to skimpier beach attire. Click to visit our site modest swimsuits

All Burqini™ modesty swimsuits have ties on the inside and on the tops that tie to loops on the trousers to prevent the tops floating while in the water. Burqini™ full cover swimwear has quality design heat press prints on the chest area, which further detract from your body shape, ensuring your modesty at all times.

The Ahiida ® Burqini full cover swimwear is made in Australia and is made of:

Hiqh Quality 100% Polyester
50 + UV protected
Chlorine Resistant
Water resistant

The Burqini has a protection factor of 50. This means that 97.5% of the harmful ultraviolet radiation is blocked in and out of the water.

The most conservative of them all. The Loose /fit style will be appreciated by any woman that loves the water but does not need to swim the laps. The Modest-Fit comes in 2 pieces… extra long top, length closer to knee area ( depending on your height), which has attached (not removable) Hijood and boot leg pant.

Is this value for money? Don’t forget - these are the ORIGINAL Ahiida Hijood Burqinis from Australia! The price reflects the quality and designer nature. Think about people whose hobby is snorkelling, or diving or surfing, or any other watersports for that matter. They have to buy a wetsuit. Some designer wetsuits cost over £100. These are considered an investment. Just think about it like this, if you are thinking about going swimming using your new Burqini modest swimming costume every week, the cost is less than £1.59 per week. How much do ladies normally spend on skimpier designs (burqini vs bikini!), with maybe 1 tenth of the fabric? Who gets better value for money. We got it covered!

What makes the Ahiida Swimwear range better than competing brands? Comparing testimonials, customers say that they particularly appreciate the front chest logo / panels to further detract from the body shape. The Hijood hood of course is another amazing feature which is unique to the Ahiida Hijood Burqini, seeing as other brands come without the cap/hood leaving you to find a swimming cap and regular cloth scarf for further coverage of the head and hair.
Ahiida’s Burqini swimsuit and Hijood (Hijab swimwear) are Registered Trademarks.

testimonials: “Sister, you have a fantastic product … I can’t come up with any downsides to the swimsuits,” said Arzo.

Heba was equally delighted: “I was finally able to go to my aquarobics class, and I love the swimsuit! It’s so lightweight, dries so quickly and it looks great. I received compliments from non-Muslims. I don’t look like a fool in the water any more, and I’m not weighed down by all the heavy wet clothes I used to wear.”

“In the water, I look like a real swimmer wearing a full body suit or scuba suit - but modest,” added Diana. Click to visit our site modest swimsuits

If you’re looking for a form of relaxation that will also help you to center your thoughts and improve your outlook on life, you may want to consider learning how to meditate. This is not an extremely difficult process, but does require dedication, and you’re able to see the results rather quickly. Here are some tips on what to do when you meditate, as well as some more details on the benefits of this practice.

When you begin to meditate, you are able to concentrate on happy or positive thoughts, and your body and mind become less stressed. Most instructors will also advise that you focus on your breathing so that your breath will become rhythmic and relaxing as well. Then, you should focus on moving your mind from negative to positive thoughts, and you should seek to understand why you are feeling stressed or frustrated. This will help you to understand your own feelings and thought process, and will help you to find ways to reduce your anxiety the next time you are in a similar situation.

You should choose a quiet place in your home or in nature that you know you can go to often without being disturbed when you are ready to meditate. This will make it much easier for you to achieve the feeling of calm that you’re searching for. You can also bring along a book of your choice, filled with advice on how to live the best life possible. Some people also keep a meditation journal, so that the techniques practiced and breakthroughs that are achieved can be recorded and repeated.

When you meditate, it is important to focus on the fact that you are trying to achieve complete happiness that has nothing to do with external circumstances. Most people base their happiness on whether or not things are going well at work or home, and as you meditate, you will find the ability to achieve balance and joy in your own mind regardless of what it happening around you. Buddhism, which is one of the ‘religions’ that created the methods of meditation we use today, teaches its followers that eventually possessions of the world, as well as friends and loved ones, will fade away. The world is constantly changing, and as we all know, we don’t always get what we want. But those who meditate are able to continue achieving peace and happiness, because they are dependant upon their own minds for clarity and positivity.

You can also check out www.pickthebrain.com to read informative blog entries that will teach you more about meditation.

What’s the bright side in all of this?
With so much is happening around us there seem to be no room for even considering that light at the end of the tunnel. We can still see it as something positive without undergoing so much scrutiny. And if it’s a train at the end of the tunnel, take it for a ride and see what makes the world go round!

Am I comfortable with what I’m doing?
There’s always the easy way and the right way when it comes to deciding what goes with which shoes, or purse, shirt and whatnot. It doesn’t take a genius to see yourself as someone unique, or else we’ll all be equally the same in everything we do. Variety brings in very interesting and exciting questions to be experimented.

Self Improvement Articles

There are techniques in yoga and meditation that will help get rid of pain and we show you how here. What we need to assure you is that these are simple techniques which can be learned and practiced by anyone - they don’t take up too much time either. The world over, this practice is becoming more and more popular to handle problems arising out of stress and tension. Meditation is an introspective technique, using contemplation to help focus the mind on a precise thought or object.

Religion News and Self Help

The path to meditation can be through music, through chants or even through silence. The focus could be on some object close by or you could focus on the breaths that you take as they go in and out of your body. No matter what approach you decide to use, you are going to need a really quiet environment and a certain period of time, in which you aren’t going to be interrupted. Identify your object of focus - it can be a mantra (word or phrase), your breathing cycle or a physical object and attain a comfortable posture (do not lie down as it would induce sleep). Done right, this gets you into a detached state even though you are aware of what is going on around you - this is a relaxed rather trance-like state. However, there are two much deeper states where the mind is able to become calmer still. Many of the world’s religions have meditation as a part pf their religious rituals but it with Buddhism that the practice is most closely associated and linked. Among Buddhists, it is used as a means to get to the highest mental state - the state of enlightenment. This can be practiced in any posture: squatting, standing, walking or lying down, while the sitting or squatting position or ‘zazen’ is the most widely recommended posture.

There are so many benefits that accrue when you meditate and the physical as well as psychological ones have been documented by Herbert Benson, a Harvard professor in a study. Sessions as short as 20 minutes when done regularly can do a world of good to you including reduced blood pressure, reduced tension in the muscles and healthy metabolic activity. On attaining a deep state, mental pictures, swirls of color or a voice speaking internally may arise. There have been studies to show that meditation can relieve a whole lot of problems that arise from stress and tension as well as other health and pain problems.

With better awareness comes a better state of health and you will find that your functioning - whether physical, mental, emotional or psychological - is so much more enhanced and healthy. Though traditional use of meditation was to be seen in spiritual well being, recent popularity is due to its ability to relieve stress and achieve relaxed tranquil state of mind in the midst of the rat-race. When you combine yoga and meditation, you will find it a perfect recipe to help you to a life without stress and tension.

You will find a list of Wicca Terms used in this website along with an explanation of their meaning. There are several Wicca Holidays and Festivals celebrated throughout the year which are described under “Wicca Calendar“.

There are many misconceptions circulating about Wicca, which sadly are made up by other religions who feel it is important that we all believe the same. There are even books written simply for the purpose of scaring people into thinking we are evil devil worshippers and destructive beings. Nothing could be further from the truth! This is part of the reason I have chosen to open up and share all I know and love about Wicca!

After you look through this website you will find that Wicca is beautiful, peaceful and easy to follow. We never try to get you to believe in anything, much less something that you cannot see, hear or touch. And unlike other religions we believe that each child is born Blessed, not born in sin as other religions which require baptism to cleanse one’s soul.

As a Christian, I have the right to live a abundant life. The life that Jesus Christ died to give me, is all mine. It’s not because of our might, nor because of our goodness, but because of the precious blood, Jesus Christ shed for us in the Cross at Calvary. Because of his innocent blood, millions of sinners are saved from Hell. How precious that is, you ask?

If you don’t realize what Hell is, or what would have happened to you if Jesus didn’t save you, you won’t realize the value of Christianity. There are still millions in the world living without the knowledge that, there exists a dark world beneath the earth named Hell. Where millions of souls are tormented forever, in eternal fire. But this may sound like a fairy tale to you unless you study the Bible deeper and seek for the truth.

Not only is Hell real. But whatever Bible depicts about the dark side and satan, evil and demons are all real. You will know the truth only if you read bible and understand what God saved us from. And the need for that is to save yourself from suffering the torments in Hell. God doesn’t want even one soul to go there, God loves us so much, that he gave his only son’s life for saving us.

Realize what you are saved from. To make you believe that there is a world called Hell. Go read the bible, search bible passages online in sites like bible gateway. Search for the word “Hell” and you will come up with all sorts of details about Hell, you will read exactly where Hell is situated, and you will know what it feels like to be in Hell. You will understand the value of Jesus Christ who saved us from destruction.

If that info on Hell is just not enough for you to believe, then go search sites like YouTube, where you’ll find a real audio recording done by some archeologists, while digging deeper in to the earths core. You’ll be shocked to hear the torments of millions of souls in Hell, also for you to believe that it’s no cooked up story, you can find photographs of newspapers articles that published the incident back in 1940’s if I am right.

I am not saying this all to scare you away from reality. I am telling you these to understand the value of Christianity and the value of what Jesus died to give us. The only person who can save us from destruction and Hell is Jesus Christ. His name is the name above all names, the word above all words. It’s the name of the Almighty who is the Alpha and The Omega, who can answer all your prayers instantly, who can change people’s minds for your good, who can heal your sickness, who can turn any difficult situation and make it to your advantage. Believe in Jesus Christ and Be Saved Forever. The gift is an eternal life, with God in his garden of Love… Heaven…

God will give his angels charge over his sons and daughters who fear him and love him the way he loves you. He is the God who said – If you abide in me and my words abide in you, I’ll do for you whatever you ask me to do. What more can a meager human being like you and me ask for that having God by our side?

Do you know that when you say blessing prayers, you have immense power in your vocal chords? That your words can make a very positive difference in bringing good in the world?

What do blessing prayers really do? Do they work? Who knows for sure? There are thousands of questions to ask when we begin talking about spiritual matters, especially the power of prayer. After all, spiritual power that comes from God’s blessing can’t be seen. It’s like feeling the wind - on your skin, hearing the leaves rustle in the breeze or watch branches sway in a storm. But the wind itself, the power driving the changes, is not seen directly.

Blessing prayers are like that. A prayer poem offers a unique way to remember to bless others and, in doing so, to bless yourself. This site is dedicated to reviewing and offering blessing prayers so that your blessing words will reflect the love and kindness that God has for all of humanity.

Blessing poems are a form of a prayer poem that use verse, meter and even rhyme to let others know they are loved and respected. Many Christian songs are poems set to music. A blessing poem can be recited, sung or said silently.

Food blessings are blessing prayers. Perhaps the most powerful food blessings that are offered is the blessing of bread and wine that Jesus made at the Last Supper, to make that food become his body and blood. Nearly 2,000 years later, those words to bless food are repeated during the Eucharistic prayer of Catholic and Christian liturgies throughout the world.

At your home, you can offer a simple meal prayer, as easily as saying, “Dear God, bless this food. May it nourish us in body and mind. Amen.” The traditional Catholic grace prayer is: “Bless us O Lord and these your gifts which we are about to receive, from your bounty through Christ our Lord. Amen.”

Make food blessings a conscious habit every time you eat. Be thankful for that food, there are so many who are hungry. Take it a step further and become a blessing by donating food to those who have none.

Blessing children is a very powerful blessing prayer. Think for a minute about the power of touch, especially with babies. Researchers tell us that without human touch, babies will withdraw, get sick and even die. So when we bless children, touching them with our hands (in appropriate places, of course) when we bless the child, conveys a sign of love, comfort and security.

To bless children is to bless the world and its future. A very simple blessing prayer is to place your hand on the top of a child’s head and say, “Jesus, bless this child. Keep Susie (use the child’s name) safe. Fill her with your love, peace and goodness. Thank you for loving Susie.”

What about dwellings? Daily blessing a house is like a breath of fresh air for our living spaces. How to bless a house is very easy. Just say, “God bless this house. Amen.” Devote a minute every day to say a house blessing for yourself, your family and your loved ones. Then, live that blessing. Saying blessing prayers will make a positive difference in the quality of your life.
