The way to find peace and clarity is to know the original mind, the universe mind, by consciously taking the time to subtract the past that has been recorded and stored within the body and mind. N …

Does 19th-century French philosopher, Henri Bergson, haunt your dreams? If he were still alive (and ambulatory) would you be stalking him? If yes to either, check into a mental health facility immediately, or check out our group. Bergson rated immediate experience and intuition above rationalism and quantitative science. For this he won the Nobel Prize in 1924. Bergson was first and foremost a philosopher of Time and viewed time (motion) as something inherent to matter, not something added to it …

When we internalize this manufactured stigma, …

How we experience the world, mentally, physically and spiritually, and even how we move are affected by our active energy center. We are familiar with the five senses, sight, sound, touch, taste and smell. Everyone has a "sixth sense", it's just one of nine additional senses. Imagine how different your world would seem if you had no sense of smell. That is how diffe …
