 Swami Rama
Then in the year 1954, shortly before I was to leave for Germany, I was
taking a bath in the Ganges and thought, “That was not right for me to
do. I should not have forced him to stay bound to his body, as he has
already given me so much.”
When I went to my master I didn’t tell him of my thought, but he said,
“Ask the other swamis to come at five-thirty this evening for the last
teachings I want to impart.” We were at a height of 11,600
feet near a shrine in the Himalayas. This place is situated between
Basudhara and Badrinath. |

 Martial Artist vs Warrior ...the seniors - the "old guys'" - division starts at about age 30!
Now, I don't know about you, but at forty-four, I don't feel much like a senior. But, I have to ask myself, how can it be in Today's world that modern martial artists are considered to be too old to compete against a younger opponent when in ancient Japan, China, and Korea...

 Tarot
It seems that wherever there was a secret ‘word of mouth’ tradition handed down from teacher to pupil, it was hailed as the origin or beginning of Tarot. A large group believed it was the Gypsies who brought the tarot to Europe, the word gypsy being a corrupted version of Egyptian.

 Love in the Stars
Relationship astrology is nothing new, yet it is experiencing a renaissance these days as more and more people rediscover the ancient, holistic wisdom that astrology offers. Thousands of years ago, every culture used astrology. The human beings who lived on Earth at the time developed subtle and meaningful spiritual technologies; astrology was among them. Just as humans today develop technologies that bring about more convenience and entertainment, ancient cultures everywhere developed subtle and magical systems awakening. Astrology, as the science of universal energy and unfolding time, was chief among them.
Even the most cursory look at a basic Astrology book will show the importance of masculine and feminine energy in life. There are two female and two male elements in the astrology chart. Each element is repeated three times through different modalities. (Cardinal, Fixed, Mutable) |
