Thoughts As Energy.

  Just as the physical atmosphere is the result of climatic conditions and air quality, there is a subtle (non-physical) atmosphere which cannot be seen, heard or measured but can be experienced and influenced by the mind and analysed by the intellect. It is variously described as the prevailing mood, the vibration and so on. What is the cause of this non-physical atmosphere, these vibrations?   Thought has been proven to be a powerful yet non-physical energy, which can influence other souls and matter. Thoughts, emotions, desires and moods generate a field around the soul, just like an electric field, can be called positive, negative or neutral, depending on the quality of its effect on other souls and on matter. When a large number of souls are all experiencing positive thoughts, feelings and emotions, then the atmosphere becomes charged with positivity. When they are experiencing negative emotions, the opposite happens. www.j...

Your desire influence your act...

There is a story about a monkey trying to get an apple out of a vase. The more he pulls at the apple the more the neck of the vase resists his clenched fist. A wise man takes the vase and turns it upside down and the apple falls into the monkeys open hand. When we act under the influence of desire our hands are closed. We create a peaceless state within. When we want to be somewhere the journey becomes longer. When we want to be heard or want them to listen, we lose the power behind speech. To care for others but under the influence of our own attachment or desire is connected to satisfying our own feelings. It means i take from what i give so others receive something that is second hand. To let go of the body, relationships of the body and developing an attitude of disinterest to all desires will make whatever i need come my way. Love, kindness and caring will not run out of fuel or be fickle. Enough is a feast anyway. There is a lot more to this subject, most of which i don't kno...

10 Questions to Ask Your Wife Every Year.

The best remedy for marriage conflict is marriage communication. Disagreements, fights, impasses, separations and divorce can be traced back to poor communication more than any other factor. Likewise, listening amounts to some of the best relationship medicine around. Listening works best when we ask good questions. Good questions indicate bonafide concern. The man who asks good questions is already well on the way to communication excellence. The best questions also serve as conversation starters. Remember, you are interested in her. But, once you start talking, she's going to ask stuff too. The more you know each other on a deep level, the easier it is to fall in love all over again. Here are 10 good questions you should ask your wife, at least every year: What do you think is going right in our relationship? It's been a while since you took the marriage vows. But it's still true that positive affirmation leads to more productive change than negative evaluation. It's ...

How Common is Common Sense

Common sense is something all of us are endowed with, yet it often seems to be in short supply. As the pace of the world increases, it seems that common sense is becoming increasingly uncommon, and many of us are guilty of not applying it at times when it is most needed. Common sense is an instinctive, appropriate response to every day events that helps make life simpler and smoother. In order to have common sense one does not need to have specialized knowledge or be super intelligent; it's simply an innate understanding of how to behave, what to do, when and how to do it, and doing it in the right place and time. It's a natural and automatic response to a situation, not something that needs to deliberated over. Take things on personal level: How many times do you find yourself not applying common sense and doing clumsy things like picking up a hot pan without using oven mitts, or speeding when road signs state, for a very good reason, that you should be driving at 30 or 40. Or...

She was once a guy.

Who would believe that this pretty Nigerian model and singer who goes by the name, Miss Sahhara, is a transgender and was once a male? Well, this much she revealed during the World Transgender Day of Remembrance that she was harassed and jailed in Nigeria for being a transgender and she even attempted suicide but is now proud and free in the United Kingdom where she has found her likes and has been accepted. This is part of what she wrote: "I am standing in front of the mirror looking at my reflection. Tears of joy trickle down my rouged cheek before going on stage. I am in tears because I just can't believe how realistic my dreams have become. I am a woman! "Living my life freely; accepted and respected for my achievements as a model and a performer. I did not imagine life could be this amazing many years ago after being released from a horrid Nigerian prison for being different. "Then all I could think was I could die in this prison and no one w...

Babalakin out of dock

A Lagos High Court in Ikeja on Monday ruled that Chairman, Bi-Courtney Limited, Dr. Wale Babalakin, could stay out of the dock pending the hearing and determination of his application challenging the fraud charges preferred against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission. Justice Lateef Lawal-Akapo also granted similar indulgence to Babalakin's co-accused, Mr. Alex Okoh. Babalakin, Okoh and three other firms, with whom they were charged, were to be re-arraigned after the matter was transferred from the former trial judge, Justice Adeniyi Onigbanjo, to Justice Lawal-Akapo. But Babalakin's counsel, Mr. Wale Akoni (SAN), argued on Monday that the arraignment should not be allowed to go on and that his client should be excused from entering the dock until the court decided on the preliminary objection he had filed challenging the competence of the charges. EFCC had charged Babalakin, Okoh and their firms with 27 counts of conspiracy, retention of proceeds of a criminal ...

corruption in the nation’s oil sector.

Governor of Central Bank, Mallam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi has revealed the corruption in the nation's oil sector, especially the non-remmittance of about $50b oil income to the national account by the NNPC. The $50 billion was accumulated between 2012 and 2013. Sahara Reporters reports that the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Sanusi Lamido Sanusi in a letter dated 25 September complained to President Goodluck Jonathan about the continuing refusal of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) to honour its legal obligations, including failure to remit $49.8 billion to the Federation Account between 2012 and 2013. That amount represents 76% of the value of crude oil liftings during the period. In a similar vein, Governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi recently asked the federal government to tell Nigerians how $5 billion got missing from the Excess Crude Account, an allegation denied by the Finance Minister, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, who said there was no such money mi...
