Conflicts between religions

Religions teach right from wrong from the perspective of power. Those with the power set the rules. Power can be wielded through violence, governmental position, cunning, or charisma. The more use of these power tools, the stronger the ability to create religious rules, even if the rules defy intelligent examination. Power, and its righteous cousin, devotion, enable believers to elevate their self-worth.

Conflicts between religions surface when there is envy or self-destructiveness or rep...

Opening the levee

The flow of information from Spirit is an ongoing, abundant supply. The information is available to all who are open to receive it.

I was blessed to receive spiritual information for me and for others. However, I lessened the amount of spiritual information I was receiving for many reasons, but kept the line of communication open. Lately I’ve started to feel that my connection to Spirit is too large to not share, and I’m beginning to feel selfish that I’m mainly using it for myself. I nee...

A last post about the new weight-manipulation drugs

More and more debate has been occurring over the use of weight-manipulation drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Rybelsus. Those in the “pro” group focus on the health problems of obesity  and elevate these issues in order to halt focus on side effects. Obesity has its risks, but they will be increased as the use of the weight manipulation drugs is extended into years and decades.

The previous posts,  Weight control nightmare and Weight control nightmare, part two, present the warning. Obes...

Creating a home

There are four universal aspects to creating a home. Without them, the dwelling space will feel bereft of comfort.

1. The home must have sentimental elements.

Sentimental elements differ from society to society. They include photographs of loved ones, collected objects, favorite books or games, gifted items that are wanted (not gifts that aren’t liked), prized mementos, and items passed through the generations.

2. The home requires space for connection.

If the dwelling is occu...

Weight control nightmare, part 2

The drugs that are being pushed on people who have weight issues are destructive. They interfere with bodily functions to the extent that the body remains in a state of confusion. The longer these drugs are used, the deeper the destruction.

The systems affected are the digestive systems (absorption of proteins and fats, transference of amino acids, and insulin production), the nervous system, the endocrine system, and the system of muscle repair. Together with these disturbances are the a...

Weight control nightmare

Nightmare is the word to describe the pharmaceutical industry’s latest foray into weight-loss drugs. People who are seduced into using them are setting themselves up for future misery. These drugs promise success and deliver pain and breakdown, if not immediately, then in the not-so-distant future. The side effects are actually features, and they will be hard to calm the longer the drugs are taken.

Weight control is not solved by magical pills. Weight control is achieved by moderation.

The Percentages for Decline

Natural death has its percentages. In the distant past, the percentages were the same as they are in today’s world. We think that modernity has changed that fact, but it hasn’t. In general people in modern societies live longer, but the causes of decline remain the same. Here are the percentages:

Genetics: 40%Nutritional intake (food, water, and empty calories): 20%Mental flexibility: 5%Traumas: 6%Physical fitness: 6%Isolation: 8%Spiritual assistance: 15%Gene...

Ghosts and their audience

I recently watched a Netflix movie about a ghost in a house. I became curious about ghostiness and decided to break my hiatus from writing EGC wisdom to ask. Here’s what I got:

Ghostiness is the phenomenon of spiritual existence in the physical world. It occurs frequently because of attachments to life, either through a strong desire to remain attached to a place or person, or through a directive from higher up to lend voice to spiritual processes. Ghostiness manifests through whispers he...

Spirit says to apply this post to the situation in Ukraine

Below are quotes from the book Descending into War, Descending into Contempt which I published in 2017. Spirit requested that I share them with you to help you understand the motivations behind the current invasion.

“War is always a descent. It is never a positive choice. Contempt, too, is always a descent. It brings only negativity and misguided thinking and actions.”

“Contempt—that which stays unspoken and that which erupts into action—when allowed to mix with laws, regulations, and ...

Why Alzheimer’s-afflicted people have trouble remembering new information

With Alzheimer’s disorder, the body accesses information that is stored away from the brain.

Information is stored in the body in three places: in the brain, around the pancreas, and by the uterus in women and in the scrotum of men. When brain functioning freezes (because of Alzheimer’s disorder), the body searches for information stored in the areas that do not freeze. Because freezing in the brain is either a slow or a fast process, the body can only move information from the brain to ...
