The power of inner space — a case study in Consciousness as Medicine
By Yogesh Mohan - Jul 15, 2015
A remarkable case study of reversal of anxiety neurosis in a middle-aged man who believed that nothing was possible, till he met a therapist who helped him experience a space within him imbued with joy and peace. A single experience of inner peace and the fact that he could control his reactions helped him to come out of a hopeless situation and recover his job and family.

The power of experience
By The Mother - Jul 15, 2015
The only really important thing modern science has discovered is that from the purely outer and physical point of view things are not what they seem to be. When you look at a body, a human being, an object, a landscape, you perceive these things with the help of your eyes, your touch, hearing and, for the details, smell and taste; well, science tells you: “All that is illusory, you don’t see things at all as they are, you don’t touch them as they really are, you don’t smell them as they really are, you don’t taste them as they really are. It is the structure of your organs which puts you in contact with these things in a particular way which is entirely superficial, external, illusory and unreal.”

Out of the shadows
By James Anderson - Jul 15, 2015
Everyone has shadows: they contradict the noblest parts of human nature. They retard man’s psychological and physical well-being. But when one proceeds along a path of personal growth, the Light somehow makes these shadows appear more distinct. The Light will also sharpen the sense of suffering but the solution is to learn to integrate the ‘personality’ and the Light provides indispensable tools for this process. The surface nature lacks the necessary equipment to deal with this affliction. It is the Light that provides the answer to shadows on every level: individual, collective and even the Light of Love on the terrestrial.

Moving Forward
By Unknown Author - Jul 15, 2015
“One said to man, ‘Know thyself infinite, Who shalt do mightier miracles than these, Infinite, moving mid infinities.’ Then from our hills the ancient answer pealed, ‘For Thou, O Splendour, art myself concealed, And the grey cell contains me not, the star I outmeasure and am older than the elements are. Whether on earth or far beyond the sun, I, stumbling, clouded, am the Eternal One.’“1

Mind over matter?
By Sujata Vaidya - Jul 15, 2015
The true role of the mind with matter is not one of dominion. The relationship should rather be one of balance. A healthy body is as important to the mind as vice versa.
