I remember that for as long as Odyssey magazine has existed (since '77, if you're wondering), there has been a consistent thread which ran through the magazine, mostly driven by its host of internationally recognised writers and contributors, that there was 'time of reckoning' soon to come and that we should be ready when it does.
Mastering Love Relationships Through Gentleness by Belinda Doveston
‘Like wind gently rustling the leaves, sometimes change happens in our relationships through gentle means. Trying to push when we need to allow can only bring disaster'. Belinda Doveston reports on how to use the energy of gentleness to soar to new heights in our relationships.
‘Do you often ask yourself: “If I could be any body or have the life of anyone, whose would it be?” Would you like the biography of your life to be different?'
'Where do you spend most of your time? At home? In the office? In the car? Yes, your body may well be in those places but what about your mind? It has been known for some time that stress can cause physiological damage to the body by the excessive and repeated release of adrenalin and cortisol into the bloodstream. While this can be a perfectly natural response to perceived danger, in some cases simply a thought about such a situation, especially an emotional thought, can trigger the same bodily reaction.'
'The issue of "right and wrong" has been going around and around in my head lately and I can't seem to settle on what I believe or what I should believe about certain things. Sure, I'm talking about smaller things, but the big things are even more important. I'm wondering what your take on this might be.'
Sound therapy has been a life journey of self reflection and integration. Sometimes a magical moment in this work shines through like a diamond when we turn our self over to the Mystery and it supports us without our knowing why or how.
The 7 Principles of Spiritualism By Michelle von Allemann
'When one mentions the word "Spiritualism" it often conjures in the mind images of Victorian ladies and gentlemen, sitting in darken parlors, a circle of hands held tight in anticipation, dramatically calling to the ‘Spirits' to show themselves.'
‘Our consciousness provides us with the continuous experience of being alive, and without it we would not be able to feel, think, reason or recognise anything at all. It can thus also provide us with a clue to the important question of life after death.'
When walking a path up a mountain you may be encouraged to stay on the path for various reasons; to preserve the surrounding grasses and animals, because the path is stabilised and you probably won't go tumbling into the abyss, or it could be the most efficient and scenic way to reach your destination. If the signs tell you to stay on the path, do you feel forced to leave it just because you won't do what you are told? Or do you do what the signs tell you in violation of common sense
