Currency Trading Education – 2 Weeks Forex Training and These Traders Made Fortunes How?

The story of “the turtles” has always fascinated me a group of people with no trading experience were taught to trade in just 14 days and went on to become legends piling up hundreds of millions of dollars. It’s an intriguing story and one you should make part of your currency trading education.

Trading forex looks easy but 95% lose and 5% win and this story will give you a bit of an insight into how to enter the elite minority.

One day trading legend Richard Dennis was having a friendly debate with his business partner who said traders were born not made – Dennis disagreed. He therefore set out to prove the point that with the right attitude and education anyone could win.

He gathered a group of people who only had one thing in common they had never traded.

They included: A couple of professional card players, an actor, a security card a female auditor and a kid just out of high school to name just a few.

He then taught them a simple trading system based on long term trend following principles, combined with rigid money management criteria and set them off to trade and the result is now well known – they went onto make hundreds of millions of dollars and go down in trading history.

Dennis proved his point – so what did this group do right to make them enjoy such spectacular success?

Here is what you can learn for your own currency trading education.

You only need a simple system and the above was very simple but what you do need is the ability to have confidence in what you are doing, to execute the trading system with discipline and protect your equity.

Here is the difference between successful traders and the losers.

The problem most traders face is, they get the wrong forex education and lose or they cannot obtain discipline.

Most traders cannot accept responsibility and follow others and of course because they don’t have confidence in what their doing, they throw in the towel when they take a few losses. Dennis didn’t teach his group to follow him or his system blindly – he instilled confidence in them, giving them the discipline to execute their trading strategy, while taking loss after loss in the short term and focusing on the long term.

He gave them the confidence to maintain discipline and money management and stay on course.

This came from inner confidence in what they were doing – they knew their trading edge would come good.

Most traders could win – but they just don’t understand the mental discipline that’s involved in currency trading and never acquire it.

Today there is a huge industry in telling you forex trading is easy and you can follow a guru, or even more ridiculous use a forex robot with a simulated track record – its all fairy stories and these traders are just simply not prepared for the brutal reality of trading for real.

I think the major point you can take from this piece of currency trading education is:

You have the ability to win at forex trading (anyone does) but you must understand that method is only one part of the equation – confidence, discipline and courage are needed as well and this is down to mindset.

If you like the idea of a challenge and the thought of making a lot of money, study this story in greater depth, it’s motivational, very inspiring and of course the experiment worked.

Could you make as much as this group?

Probably not, I have been trying for 25 years but I have made a lot of money and achieved a level of success I never thought possible. The turtle story inspired me to have a go and gave me pleasure and an income I never thought I could achieve and I hope it does the same for you.

Spirituality and All That Jazz by Peter Menkin

Spirituality
And
“All That
Jazz”

by Peter Menkin

For Religious Reading, Prayer, And Living A Spiritual Life Before I enter into a long remark and analysis on the worth of  living the spiritual life, and of keeping a copy of this pocket size book  The Rule of St. Benedict, I want to write a short introduction on what is the basis of my theme for the use of the book:
prayer. Then to discuss the work as I see it as a contribution to ones own life of living in the world and
in the light of God’s presence.

An Invitation To Contemplative Prayer
And The Many Mansions Of Faith
I am going to tell you, and tell those I do know, some of my thoughts about contemplative prayer, and prayer in general. I want to make a statement to encourage people to think about God, and to consider entering the ministry by being
a friend to others. I used The New Standard Revised
Version of the Bible (Oxford), and The New Jerusalem Bible
(Doubleday) when composing some of these thoughts.
I listened to the Dean of Grace Cathedral, Alan Jones,
reading the entire script of the book “The Cloud of
Unknowing”. He has a very remarkable and instructive
reading style. And a voice that is easy to hear. The audio tape is available from The Grace Cathedral Gift Shop,
1055 Taylor Street, San Francisco, California. There are
two tapes in the set. The Dean’s voice is a comfort to his listeners, so you may find listening to the tape good
background sound for tuning into.

Another thing to know about me: I am an Oblate of New
Camaldoli, and they have a hermitage in Big Sur, California, that is worth visiting. It is South of Lucia on Highway 1.
They are Benedictine Monks, and oriented towards
Vatican II. Here is a book for recommended reading: “Love
on the Mountain” by Robert Hale. This is The Chronicle
Journal of a Camaldolese Monk and it is available through
The Hermitage Bookstore, Immaculate Heart Hermitage,
Big Sur, California 93920. Also Amazon.com

There are some other interesting books from the publisher, including one that tells where monasteries and retreat houses are located in the United States. You may want to get that book to visit some of these lovely, peaceful, and sacred places. Travelers will find it especially interesting.

The publisher: Source Books, P.O. Box 794, Trabuco Canyon, CA 92678. Write for a flyer of their book list, and enclose an SASE for the one page paper.

Here Is The Text About God And Me And Others And Prayer:
The mystery of the presence of God, as the life of Christ is
available to us by prayer. St. Benedict wrote a rule about prayer. The rule says, “At these times, therefore, we should sing the praises of our Creator for his just judgments…
” We do this during the Daily Office of the Morning, and in the Evening.

“The Rule of St. Benedict” is a little book illustrating some of the things we know about God. Mostly it is about staying
in the Spirit of the Almighty, and learning about the justice that comes from a relationship with the Triune God. Most of the thoughts about God and Christ and the Holy Spirit come from St. Benedict, and in The Rule he illuminates what he is himself. You are encouraged to purchase the book sometime, and to read it. Young people and those
in their 30s and up, who are interested in living a life of prayer, or living with God in their lives, and especially
those who have wondered what it is like to be called by Christ, will find The Rule an introduction to better living.

You will be joining many other people through the decades who have also shared an interest in finding out what God calls them to do in their lives. Young people who have sensed that a life in the service of their Church will discover that through prayer they will be able to discern what the Spirit is saying to them.

Surprisingly, many people who have experienced and know God agree that a regular prayer life is helpful in stabilizing their living with others. We share in God through Christ, and in this book of quotations from the Bible you will find an introduction to Christ’s message of the indwelling Trinity.
By regular prayer, an introduction to the contemplation of the just judgment of creation itself in the making of
the world, man, and our lives is appreciated. Within that
indwelling Christ is the with you. Discovering in
contemplation the Triune God, through Christ, is that
being with others in worship, along with the very gift of
recollection. In the daily practice of prayer one may enjoy the recalling of the community in Christ.

“’No one has ever seen God. It is God the only Son, who is close to the Father’s heart, who has made him known.’
(Meister Eckhart, quoted from his writings.)” John 1:18

This is the living food that is available in prayer, and through the attendance of Church where the sacraments are
offered. This coming to know Christ with the adoration that is a joy is a developed discipline. It is through the food of the will that we are able to do what it is that Christ asks
of his, for it is “the will of him who sent me” that we are
seeking through the attention we give to Christ. The
Kingdom of God does come to us in the daily ministration of a few minutes of prayer each day; and the completion
of this work may take many months to start to attend to
the harvest. You will be able to tell when you look around you and see that the days are ripe for the harvest for
this is what paying attention to Christ in the spirit will bring on a daily basis. This common experience of an ecstasy
in the Triune God through this reception is a ripening
of the spirit. We are told in John 4 that “The reaper is
already receiving wages and is gathering fruit for eternal
life, so that sower and reaper may rejoice together.”
How may we enter into the gates of the mansions, and
the worlds that are available to us in the Spirit, and in
service to others? How may we as lay people support
and live in our Church lives as Christians, entering into
the manifold daily welcoming that is the offering of the spirit? We can and do practice this with the Grace of God. This Grace is something that is an entry point to the
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, a narrow way to Heaven
that is a beginning for the willing participant in prayer.
By considering Christ as the spiritual community of our lives, we join with others in a labor, and as John tells
us directly“…you have entered into their labor.”

During Christ’s rest, for he is an enlightened man,
inspired, and instilled with God’s blessing as God in man; even then he is at work bringing us into his fold. When
he visited with the Samaritan woman and told her of
the living water he brought, the result was that other
Samaritans began to come to him to ask him to stay
with them. This willingness to faith, which is a hope in things unseen, and a belief in going forward in the Spirit, is a gateway for us to begin to recognize that the in-
dwelling reality of God’s gift is available to us through
the poetic recognition of our own silence. We may find
the still point of our experience in the world, and in our inner selves through a reading of the scriptures, and the practice of prayer in the morning and in the evening.

Prayer offers us comfort in knowing that the Savior of the world is available to us for a questioning time, when we
may speak freely to God with a directness that allows for even the most genuine freely given parts of ourselves.
This giving over to the Savior our innermost sanctuaries,
and those private thoughts and desires is part of what
prayer life is about. This is recollection, the remembering
of things, people, and events that have passed. We can
enter into many rooms, many places, many doorways
of our day in prayer. We can remember our friends, their voices, their activities of the day or of last week or last
year in our prayers. Through this recollection as a lived
and remembered intention there is a gift of Grace that
allows us to enter into the stillpoint. Through Christ we
enter into the knowing of God the Father, and by the
Holy Spirit we are illumined with a continuing expression
of the newness of the words that are on the page of
the prayer we may be reading, or the words of the
prayer we may be saying.

The unknowing of this practice is the very essence of the experience. Call this a spiritual exercise, a relinquishing to Christ in adoration the kind of desire of Love that is
the sweetness of the Lord. From the giving of ourselves
in this manner we are partakers of a living water that is
a thirst of the Love that beats dearly and closely to reveal that we are children of God. Christ is willing to be with us
in this time of privacy, and intimacy, to allow us to be a
gatherer of the fruit for eternal life. To enjoy this repast of
a feast with others in the sharing of their lives, and the
laughing or sorrow that is with others in community is
a part of the life of prayer. We practice this kind of prayer
with others, and recollect it. Do this with others and
when with ourselves alone, remembering that we are
always in the presence of Christ.

The largeness of prayer life comes to us as we expand
towards an ascension with the Lord so that we may know that he is the Savior of the world. This is the act of hastening to our heavenly home, a time to run the race of life and not tarry. Though others have gone before us, and we join them, and that they have labored, and we enter into their labor
as Christ tells us in John, being with them is part of the gift
God offers us in the redemption of Christ, his son.

Matthew 11:27
“All things have been handed over to me by my Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.”

The disciples found the Lord in Capernaum, where they went looking for him (after the loaves and fishes were distributed to the multitude who had gathered to see him). In prayer we eat of the bread of life from week to week, celebrating and preparing each day for the gathering that is the memorial and sacrifice of Sunday. In our celebration of prayer, practiced in whatever mood we may be in, or condition of our lives, we continue to look forward to the way of coming to the Father in the Son. “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry, and
whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.” (John 6:35).
Many times during prayer other thoughts come into our minds. These can be intuitions, and considerations, worries, and memories of the day or of people in our daily lives. This is the stuff of life that is the renewal of prayer. Look for this revelation and ascend with it. Join with this everything that is given to the Son through the Father. In a manner of contemplation, of being mindful of the joy that is available and will come to you through him, recall that Christ gives of himself in an offering with which we enter. “…anyone who comes to me, I will never drive away…” (John 6:38).

The heartfelt need of taking in the bread of life that is a sustenance for daily living, and a renewal of healing in the bringing of oneself back to the Lord in one’s self is the
everything that we look to be receiving. In our unknowing state of faith, in our willingness, through travail, or joy, or times of quiet and rest, we may continue to seek and find
a resting place in Christ every day.

The will of Him who sent Christ is that he should lose none of us. Rest assured that by keeping one’s mind on the
availability, and the psyche’s loving desire to be with the beloved, the bridegroom, we may enter into another room
or another place of the many mansions that comprise a mountain to ascend. In this charism of quietude, and in this
well-being of the Spirit, be centered on and open to the
receiving of the Lord. How mighty is the experience of prayer is the private knowledge that is unspoken in the
word that comes from the wind of the Holy Spirit like a
presence, yet is at the same time a witness to the
resounding pleasure of the living word found in scripture.

The Father is revealed in the flesh and the presence in the spirit of Christ, through the believers and those whom
Christ may wish to reveal himself. Whom this may be is a mystery. Entering into this mystery enables us to enjoy the daily reading of scripture, or the sheer pleasure of hearing the sound of another reading aloud a passage or selection from the books of the Bible. In Church, or among friends in fellowship, the use of the scriptures or the sharing of
a friendship in Christ is a spiritual experience in knowing the loving God who comes to us through and in our faith in Christ. By this act of community, whether alone or
with others, we share in the mystery of an ascension into the unknowing of a world that is heaven sent, and gifted
as a grace for the known acknowledgment of the
indwelling Trinity.

Within this adoration, or by the recognition of the light
that is the way of joining into the climb towards heaven, we are able to recognize that this bread has come down from heaven. In this age, and in the age to come, we
may be a leaven for the Spirit of Christ in our actions and good deeds for others. We may be allowing ourselves to bring the goodness of the spirit of the Father, and
the presence of the Trinity into the world through this
daily exercise of the promise that the Lord offers us.

You are drawn by the Father who sent Christ, and on the last day you will be raised up. At that time and in the present, as one seeks to enter more deeply into spiritual matters, you may find that you have heard and learned to come to Christ. In our thankfulness for this historic act of human dimension given by God in the redemption of the world, through a mystery of creation from the time the world began, we become in Christ. This is the way of eternal life.
“I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats of this bread will live forever; and the bread that
I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.” (John 6:51).

Speak the good words to others, and when the time comes for silence, be wise and know that there is esteem for
silence. Be awake so as to recall that there are things and words to be left unsaid. Enter into this reverence with
others, and practice a listening heart, a listening ear, and
a receptive presence. In this receiving of others, and in
receiving of the spirit, we are receiving Christ.

In The Rule of St. Benedict the writer exhorts regarding
the wisdom of the Saints and their gifts in Christ to
“attend to them with the ear of your heart. This is advice from a father who loves you; welcome it, and faithfully
put it into practice.” (Prologue, The Rule of St. Benedict).

Be sure to ask another, especially one who is a superior,
for a blessing. This acknowledgment and request
by ones actions or words for a blessing is a way of
keeping the Ten Commandments. “Thou shalt not
bear false witness against thy neighbor.” (The Book of
Common Prayer). The practicing of virtues is a good
reward, and entering into the Lord’s service as a
lay person, lay minister, pastor, as a priest, or into the
monastic life is a beginning.

Seek holiness. Seek goodness. Seek Christ. Be present
to the living God who is present at all times, and
remember that we live in the sight of the Lord, with the
gift of the Trinity. Each day is a day that the Lord has
made, we are glad in it.

Rv. 2:17
“Let anyone who has an ear listen to what the Spirit is saying to the churches. To everyone who conquers I will give some of the hidden manna, and I will give a white stone, and on the white stone is written a new name that no one knows except the one who receives it.”

What is this word that we have received through prayer, or the practice of living, walking, engaging in sports, doing our work, talking to friends and family in the knowledge that we do so in the light and sight of God? It is a spirit. How do we discern this Spirit of the Lord that he gives
us as the indwelling Christ? It is a sense of ourselves in
the beauty and gift of the Lord. This comfort that tells us that we are a child of God and wanted, that we are going towards the Kingdom of God, is a sense of our selves and well-being. It is there. Discern the gift of the Spirit. Live in the knowledge that Christ is good and he loves us as
he gives the gifts to us so that we may receive our name and the white stone on which we are made His, as we
are initiated into the life of being a Christian.

This is an important dimension for the living soul that speaks and is tried in the fire of a furnace that is
the Holy Spirit. The spirit speaks to the Churches, and we hear the Spirit when we gather for prayer. Those who feel a calling to he Priesthood, or a life in service, or volunteer work as a Christian in community who will do for another, gains the ktnowledge of the hidden manna that comes through the Eucharist, and in the living word of scriptures. These are written on the wind, and how the wind blows we know not for God’s ways are not our ways.

In this unknowing we come to the closeness in finding a place to stand or a crag to lay hold of or sit in as we enjoy and in awe watch the living majesty of God enfold. These eyes of ours that are in the Spirit, the teller of a truth that is a comfort even until the end, is a realization that we are in a universe that is good, and a world that God created for
us to come and be with him. We await his coming in glory.

The Spirit is at work in the world and in the Church evennow. “The Holy Spirit is the Third Person of the Trinity…” who spoke through the prophets and in the creation of the world was revealed to us so we can be led to the truth that enables us to gain this hidden manna that is a good food. As we grow into the likeness of Christ we may recognize that in our confession of Jesus Christ as Lord, we are brought into the harmony of the indwelling Trinity.

This is a harmony of love, a calling and a giving, that is love so genuine and close as to be a passion of religious experience shared throughout many generations and ages by people known and not known, people remembered, and people who are not remembered.

Prayer helps us to be brought into the righteous condition that the justice of God gifts to us. During our daily or weekly reading of scriptures it is important to recognize the resonance of the truth that the word brings to us, as it is brought to us in the thoughts, whispers, desires,
and all things that make for good in us or among our thoughts. Something good will come out of our accord with the scriptures, and in our attempt to be willing to be with others in community so that the word can be studied and made alive within us. This Trinity is one God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This wonderful God of ours is a moving and living eternal force from the time of the beginning of the world, made by God in Christ at the creation of the world. Everyday we are living the revelation through the liturgy of our prayer time and mostly of our time in Church. (The Paschal Liturgy and the Apocalypse by Massey H. Shepherd, Jr., Ecumenical Studies in Worship, 1960.)

Whether we are sought for and are seeking to become a Priest, or have talked to a friend or a minister, or in our study group about some of the mysteries that bring us in a call to be part of the Christian lives and sensibilities of the Spirit, is a good indication that the Holy Spirit and this living manna is with and among us. our own name on it so that each of us may know that we
are a treasure with a gift from God.

Here we may find the gift of the cross, and the way of the cross that is part of the life and passion of the obedient and chaste Christ–who in his gentle and knowing way as a man born of Mary, in the flesh of a human, shares with us in the tears, toils, and the sufferings that we live in our own lives. This gift of God, as a redemption of the world is a mystery
of everyday living and is the revelation of the Bible lived
out in the liturgy of the days of the week between Sunday and preparation again for Church on Saturday. Here is
the entry point to the living of a Christian and religious life. This kind of living can be begun again anew everyday
and begun anew every week. In so doing we are obtaining
a hidden manna that allows us to proclaim nature of
Incarnation and of God as Trinity.
“If in my name you ask me for anything, I will do it.”
(John 14:14).

Thomas asks the lord how we are to know the way. Jesus replies that he is the way, and the truth, and the life. Through him we can find the satisfaction of the Father, in knowing the Father: for by being with and seeing Christ, as one may speak with and dwell in Christ, one is able to recognize that Christ is in the Father and the Father is in Christ.

This indwelling of Christ is the epiphany of the light that comes to us after Christmas, a proof that the promise and glory of God in redemption has come to our world. Faith
as small as a mustard seed is what is asked, and that we
of little faith continue on the way so that we may love him and keep Christ’s commandments. Christ promised that
he will ask the Father on our behalf to give us another
Advocate, who will be with us forever. “This is the Spirit
of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it
neither sees him nor knows him.”
As children of God, we have been promised that Christ
will come to us and live with us because we also live in
him. The Summary of the Law is one of the gifts that Christ leaves with us, and we renew our establishment with this Summary: You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is
the first and the great commandment. And the second
is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.
The New Commandment is that we love one another
as Christ loved us.

Jn 14:10
“Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the father is in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own; but the Father who dwells in me does his works.”

There is an ancient dispute that John 6:52 addresses, and it is about the literal living off of, the eating of the flesh of Jesus Christ. We do in our lives share in the suffering and the trial, the festival, and the light of the Son of Man because we do eat the flesh, drink the blood, and thereby have his life in us. Through this partaking of the mystery
of faith in the wine and the bread the true drink of life is continued. Those who wish to abide in Christ, so that he may and will abide in them, do this for the living Father has sent him to us. Prayer prepares us for this embrace of the Spiritual longing and the flesh of the community, which in this life and the next enables us to live a Christian life. In this Spirit of embracing and joining with others in the worship experience we are as individuals made into the embodiment of the body so that we may through him come to the Father. Esating of this sustenance, and sharing in the activities and living presence of Christ is granted to us. In this way one can come to Him. “It is the spirit that gives life; the flesh is useless. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life.” (John 6:63).

AN INTERLUDE As Conclusion
We come in the all in all on the wounds of Christ in the Song of Songs by the silent prayer and the noblest prayer, so that “I Must Be Sun” for that is why God has joy and rest and where beauty derives from love.
The greater the love, the greater the blessedness. This is the Rose, the hidden source of God’s splendor everywhere.

[Robert Hale, a monk, quotes Angelus Silesius in brief poems. (Angelus Silesius is new to me; nonetheless I had to pass along to you my copy work of these words by the seventeenth-century mystic. They are from the book Love on the Mountain.)]

THE ROSE
The rose which here on earth is now perceived by me. / Has blossomed thus in God from all eternity. (1:108)

THE HIDDEN SOURCE
Who would have thought of this! The darkness brings forth light, / The something comes from naught, death does engender life (4:163) God’s Splendor is Everywhere. No speck so tiny is, no spark can be so dim, / The wise don’t see God’s splendor deep within. (4:160)
ALL IN ALL
How saw Benedict all in a sun-ray revealed? / See, all is hidden in all, and therein is concealed. (4:159)

ON THE WOUNDS OF CHRIST
I look upon Christ’s wounds as wide celestial gates. / And know that I can enter through these five safest ways. How may I come straightway to stand close to my God? / I shall through feet and hands enter the heart of love. (4:46)
`
THE SONG OF SONGS
The king leads his bride into the cellar for wine. / That she may choose what most delights her taste. / If you would be God’s bride, He will deal with you thus; / Nothing He has Himself that He’ll not to you entrust. (4:88)

THE SILENT PRAYER
God far exceeds all words that we can here express. / In silence he is heard, in silence worshipped best. (1:240) THE NOBLEST PRAYER
The noblest prayer will one so much transform. / That he becomes himself that which he does adore. (4:140)

I MUST BE SUN
Myself, I must be Sun, whose rays must paint the sea. /
The vast and unhued ocean of all divinity. (1:115)

WHY GOD HAS JOY AND REST
Because God is Triune, He does have joy and rest: /
Rest is in the Oneness, joy among the Three. (5:283)

BEAUTY DERIVES FROM LOVE
Beauty derives from love, even God’s face. / From love
originates, or it would radiance lack. (5:292)

THE GREATER THE LOVE,
THE GREATER THE BLESSEDNESS
The measure of all bliss one does by love assess. / The
more one has of love, the more one will possess (5:295)

“In our prayers for you we always thank God,
the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.” (2 Col 1:3)

Entering into the contemplation of God and by the practice of friendly acts, and good deeds, one is able to continue
to enter in through the sheepfold gate. In our present age, we are beset with so many trials that it is difficult to know what is meant by entering the sheepfold by the gate.
In the manner of contemplation, this is simply to recognize that the Christian may in different ways enter when the
gatekeeper opens the gate for him. When we hear others
tell us that we are on the right path, or when we ourselves have the sense that we are in the right way, this kind of
concord is a helpful indication that we are with the Lord.
Questioning the authority, and testing the spirits, looking
to the side and checking out how awake one is in this
practice of seeing who is ahead of one is a good way to determine when we are doing the right thing.
The Church itself is a source for the kinds of teachings that will allow us to keep from following a stranger, or having the gatekeeper run away when we ask a more difficult question is a good indication that we are in a place that needs
another look. In the spiritual sense, this means discerning the spirits by recognizing that it is Jesus who is listening
to us. He is the gate through whom we enter into the
Triune experience of God, that is the freedom we seek.

In this pasture, we can be tranquil in our entering by him
so that we may be saved. As a good shepherd, Christ
lays down his life for the sheep. He does not leave when
the wolf comes running, or when the wolf snatches and
scatters the sheep.

There is one flock, one shepherd, and He was and is
willing to lay down his life in order to take it up again for
us. “No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own
accord.” (John 10:17). This ongoing willingness to give attention, and be in friendship with others is an indication that we are receptive to the spirit. We may enter into the power to lay our time, and our treasures down to have
the power to take our time and treasures up again. By
this is meant that we can as individuals engage ourselves
in our daily tasks to keep Christ before us, and we can
in our daily struggles begin again and renew ourselves
in our efforts to be willing in the spirit and in our actions
to continue on in our lives as Christians.

For those who seek to be gatekeepers, to lead others, to care for them, to help them enter into the Christ, we must
be willing to be present to each other. In this community
of Christian practice we will be able to persevere. We
will continue to follow in the Christ to worship, adore,
obey, cherish, and be present to the Triune God.
“Whoever enters by me will be saved, and will come
in and go out and find pasture.” (John 10:9)

In the partaking of the sacraments, we enter into the
mystery of the sacrifice that the body of Jesus Christ is
as an offering by God’s will. Living this life is with its trials,
and its tired times, its limits and its times in the flesh. This
is a real life in this world. There is no one who can avoid
the necessity of aging, or of pain, or disappointments.

By continuing in the way of Christ we are entering into
our heavenly reward, and hastening towards our heavenly
home. Through the practice of humility we may as private people in our monastic selves engage in the love of God, performed by ascending through steps of good habit
and delight in virtue. The Rule of St. Benedict outlines
seven steps of humility that lead us through love to God which casts out fear.

This ladder of humility is the same that Jacob saw in a dream. By practicing the steps of ascension in this manner we put before us the recognition that we can be with God.
• The first step of humility is to keep the fear of
God before our eyes. Live in the presence and sight
of God.
• The second step of humility is to do the will of God, by imitating the actions and living the life of Christ as it is
revealed and outlined in scripture.
• The third step of humility is to obey others by cooper-ating with them, or questioning them, or submitting to a superior in the Christian spirit and faith. This means to
be awake when doing so, and in this manner we will not
be locked in step and blindly going forward without
others in a misguided manner.
• The fourth step of humility is to persevere and be
brave of heart and rely on the Lord. There is a reward
from God to come. • The fifth step of humility is to confess to others our sins and our faults, or errors, wrongs and ways. Make these things known to the Lord in prayer, and in examination of yourself on a daily basis. Using the Decalogue is a good way to examine one’s life, for the Ten Commandments are
a gift from God. Remember that in doing so, by confessing to the Lord, that the Lord is good and his mercy is forever.
• The sixth step of humility is to be content with oneself
and ones lot in life, to be where one is in life, and to live ones life where one is in the present. God is present with
us where we are whether we reconize this fact or not;
Christ is with us at all times. Be with the Lord always by reminding yourself that He is present, and He is in you
and you are in Him.
• The seventh step of humility is that it is a blessing to be humbled so that one may learn the commandments of
God, and live in the manner of keeping a perspective that we are but human and passing like the grass that withers,
yet the Lord is from age to age.
• The eighth step of humility is that one follows the
common rules of ones community, or of ones monastic
or religious community. This can sometimes be difficult,
and it is in so doing that we are brought to living with others and finding our way. This takes a special kind of humility and often requires the example of those who are superior to us to be able to practice.
• The ninth step of humility is to speak in a manner
that avoids sinning, so that there is not a flood of words. Controlling ones tongue so as to be providing others
with encouragement or better things, rather than the
diversions of misguiding others is a constructive
way to practice this kind of humility.
• The tenth step of humility is to keep a sense of humor with oneself and others, so that we are able to like one
another and ourselves.
• The eleventh step of humility is to speak gently,
with a modesty and reasonableness that is sincere to
other people. Practice being genuine in kindness, and speak these kind of words by saying less of them.
This is called being “few in words.”
• The twelfth step of humility is to continue on in a
journey so that ones bearing allows for others to know
that one is willing to be a ready listener, and so that
others may recognize that you are willing to be
someone living with humility. The modesty of this
kind of practice is important, for it is in love that we
perform this kind of humility. It is in good habit
and delight in the virtue of this ascension of being
in the presence of God, by a joy and a willingness
to reflect on the 95th Psalm.

As a morning guide the 95th Psalm is a good guide
to living a life in the presence of God, and one that is
beginning in humility in the presence of the Lord.
This is a Psalm that allows our heart to be fixed,
and to dance and walk in the pleasure of the life that
God has given us. This is why it is so important to
stay with a life of prayer. Persevere.

Come, let us sing to the Lord;
Let us shout for joy to the Rock of our salvation.
Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving
And raise a loud shout to him with psalms

For the Lord is a great God, And a great King above all gods.
In his hand are the caverns of the earth, And the heights of the hills are his also.
The sea is his, for he made it, And his hands have molded the dry land.

Come, let us bow down, and bend the knee, And kneel before the Lord our Maker
For he is our God,
And we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand.

Oh, that today you would hearken to his voice!Harden not your hearts,
As your forebears did in the wilderness, At Meribah, and on that day at Massah,
When they tempted me. They put me to the test, Though they had seen my works.

Forty years long I detested that generation and said,
“These people are wayward in their hearts; they do not know my ways.”
So I swore in my wrath, “They shall not enter into my rest.”

–Peter Menkin, Obl Cam OSB

Live a real life not one full of shoulds

In case I haven’t mentioned it lately, I really do enjoy getting feedback about my blog posts – from comments to stories, and occasionally some that take me to task for a variety of reasons. It’s all good, because I know that you are giving thought to some important issues.

For example the wants vs should post was rather thought provoking to some followers. Life is meant to be lived, and lived with joy. I do not believe any Creator would create something as precious as life and mean it to be miserable or a drudgery. So here are a few thoughts:

I figure that most of us were raised with “shoulds” from our parents and family members, perhaps our faith. And while some of these “shoulds” were valid and created to maintain safe and productive communities, some of them have become millstones around our necks.

You know I am a big advocate of self-examination. It is good – from time to time – to take a look at the attitudes and habits that are running our life. Along with the comfort zones and restrictive zones, I take a look to see if I have a “should” running around unattended. I give it a thorough “look-see” to make sure that it is valid, and not keeping me from exploring new opportunities or possibilities.

Life is about choices, and you have the ability to choose. You always have had this ability. I suggest that not only do you have the ability, you have the responsibility to make choices for yourself.

Paul Palmer

It is your life, and you are in the driver’s seat, if you choose to be. Take control and let you life speak for you.

Harrison K-9s – the Best "homeland Security" Money Can Buy

Ever since 9/11 and the explosive growth of crime in our cities and neighborhoods, concerned and frightened citizens everywhere have been increasingly interested in protecting their property, and more importantly, those they love.

Modern technology has provided an array of solutions however one of the best-kept secrets can be found nestled among 25 acres in Aiken, South Carolina where the ultimate solution for “home-land” security can be found.

It’s called Harrison K-9 Security Services, a provider of the most sophisticated protection dogs in the world!

If you are like most people, your experience with trained dogs is probably limited to seeing them in back of police vehicles, looking menacing while barking uncontrollably.

Actually, military dogs have been used throughout history going back as far as the ancient Greeks and Romans.

Napoleon used them in 1798 to guard the walls of Alexandria, Egypt

In 1884, the German Army established the first organized Military School for training war dogs at Lechernich, near Berlin; and in 1885 wrote the very first training manual for MWD (Military War Dogs).

During the Gulf War, at least 1,177 highly trained German Shepherds were use by the French forces to guard and protect their troops, supplies and aircraft. The USA used 88 teams.

Harrison K-9 Security Services is the brainchild of Harrison Prather who started his own security dog business in 1975 after graduating college and apprenticing with a Master Trainer who specialized in training military and police dogs.

It was there that he realized that a key element of the “dog’s nature” was being ignored. Traditional training focused on the dog’s innate aggressive nature without control. “They naturally have the power,” says Harrison, adding, “What you want is to control that power….power without control is nothing.”

“The type of dog that we produce is a social dog that makes a great family pet but is also taught to defend its handler and its handlers’ family and loved ones with amazing ferocity and courage.”

Seeing is believing so if you really want to understand what Harrison is saying, I urge you to watch the company’s promotional video at www.harrisonk9.com/html/video.cfm

Consequently, that’s one of the things that separate Harrison K-9s from the rest of the industry and has made him one of the oldest and most prestigious Schutzhund or “protection dog” companies in the U.S.

Schutzhund (german for protection dog) is a dog sport that was developed in Germany in the early 1900s to test whether German Shepherd Dogs act and perform in the manner that the breed was intended, rather than simply evaluating a dog’s appearance. Today, many breeds other than German Shepherds can compete in Schutzhund, but it is a demanding test for any dog and few of them can pass this kind of test.

Harrison has been importing his dogs from the same source in Germany for over 15 years now. His supplier/importer has been, on several occasions, the Captain of the German International Team for Schutzhund competition.

When asked what makes his dogs so special and worth the $25,000 to $60,000.00 his clients pay for them, Harrison said, “you can compare them with thoroughbred race horses that are valued by their genetic purity and carefully preserved bloodlines.”

“These superior-bred dogs are handpicked by my supplier in Germany for their pedigree, intelligence, working abilities and temperament and then delivered to me after completing two to three years of foundation training. After that time these same dogs undergo rigorous evaluations and additional proprietary training designed for each individual client’s needs.

Harrison K-9 sells an average of 130 dogs a year; each trained to the specifications and needs of its new owner.

Harrison makes the ultimate decision….determining which dogs go with which clients. “It’s part science and part intuition…an intuition obviously developed as a result of 35 years in the business.”

The process begins with an informal conversation with the client questioning what kind of environment the dog will be in….are there children…security needs…lifestyle (will dog travel, etc.)

Each sale comes with a 60 day guarantee for compatibility and the company will replace the dog for any reason. “The customer is always right,” Harrison proudly stated.

A Harrison K-9’s three months of training is rigorous and extensive simulating real-life situations and taught to bite only on command, even if it’s provoked.

One of Harrison’s secrets is that his staff is almost entirely female to make sure that all dogs can be handled by the client and his or her family.

When each dog is trained and ready, the client can choose to receive their personal instructions in care and handling at the Harrison K-9 facility in Aiken, South Carolina. Or they can have the dog delivered to them along with two trainers who introduce the dog to the new family and teach its members the commands and signals the dog relies on. Every client gets a DVD copy of the care and handling training they receive and the company also offers periodic training if needed to refresh their memory.

Clients come from the U.S., Europe, and Latin America and include a “who’s who” of dignitaries and celebrities, many of whom will never be mentioned by Harrison or any of his workers as anonymity is sacred at Harrison K-9.

When I asked Harrison to “drop a couple of names” of some of the more notable celebrities that have bought dogs from him, he apologized and said that he couldn’t answer me. This is because he promises every client the utmost in anonymity even though he could certainly capitalize financially by using their names in his brochures and other marketing materials.

One typical Harrison K-9 client who has had security problems in the past describes themselves as “recognizable with a high-profile lifestyle.” They’ve opted to forgo armed bodyguards in favor of a pair of Harrison K-9 protection dogs and now have the best of all worlds because in addition to having superior protection, they also have a loving and playful pet for their children and grandchildren.

“Does your security system include unconditional love like mine does?” he jokingly asked.

If the security is an issue of concern for you, your property or family then an executive protection dog must be seriously considered.

In multiple studies and interviews conducted among convicted sexual assault, robbery and burglary felons they were asked what security measures taken by homeowners were most effective at deterring their criminal intentions. Consistently, at the top of the list were security dogs!

WHY?
1) Canine hearing abilities…more sensitive then alarm systems;
2) Canine barking alerts homeowners and neighbors;
3) Fear of being attacked;

It is clear that Harrison and his staff have the entire process of dog selection, training and delivery down to a science making the experience an enjoyable one for the client and his or her family.

Now all you need is $25K to $60K and it’s a done deal. If you think that’s a lot of money…it is! However when you run the numbers and compare apples to apples, not only is it a great deal….it’s a must have!

WENDELL BERRY –“Men may dam it and say that they have made a lake, but it will still be a river. It will keep its nature and bide its time, like a caged animal alert for the slightest opening. In time, it will have its way; the dam, like the ancient cliffs, will be carried away piecemeal in the currents.”

WENDELL BERRY –“We are far more concerned about the desecration of the flag than we are about the desecration of our land.”

WHITE –“In antiquity, every tree, every spring, every stream, every hill had its own genius loci, its guardian spirit… Before one cut a tree, mined a mountain, or a brook, it was important to placate the spirit in charge of that particular situation, and to keep it placated. By destroying animism, we have only ended up exploiting nature in a mood of indifference to the feelings of natural objects.”

WHOOPI GOLDBERG –“It never occurs to me that there are things I can’t do.”

WIKIPAEDIA –“Researchers reason that all living humans descend from Africans, some of whom migrated out of Africa and populated the rest of the world.

Therefore many researchers take the mitochondrial evidence as support for the “single-origin” or Out-of-Africa model.”

While, Brahmn has only to be cognised, Parashakti can be worshipped with name and form. She is Divine Will personified. She isconscious power beyond everything. She is the invisible and constant presence that sustains the world, linking form and name, holding them in interdependence. There is nothing impossible for Her She is the Universal Goddess. She is all knowledge, all strength, all triumph and all victory she is the Goddess Supreme, Maheshvari, who brings to us the total state of illumination.”

WIKIPAEDIA “Shakti is Mother of the universe. She creates, preserves, dissolves. She is the sat and so creates. She is chit, so she is life. She is ananda or bliss. He is also possessor and controller of opposite qualities: Destruction, death and terror as Mahakali, Goddess of Supreme Strength.”

WIKIPAEDIA –“Space-time entails a new concept of distance. Whereas distances are always positive in Euclidean spaces, the distance between any two events in space-time — called an “interval” — may be real, zero, or even imaginary.”

WIKIPAEDIA –“The real purpose of the Paryushan is to purify our soul by staying closer to our own soul, to look at our faults, to ask for forgiveness for the mistakes we have committed, and take vows to minimise our faults. We try to forget about the needs of our body and our business so that we can concentrate on our-self. Swetambers celebrate eight days of Paryushan and the last day is called Samvastsari. In these eight days most of Jains keep fast in many ways and all Jains keep fast on Last day of Paryushan. The process of shedding our KARMAS really begins by asking for forgiveness with true feelings and to vow not to repeat mistakes. The quality of the forgiveness requires humility and suppression of anger.”

WILCOX AND MUMFORD –““I don’t care how poor a man is; if he has family, he’s rich.”

WILFRED B L TROTTER –“The dispassionate intellect, the open mind, the unprejudiced observer, exist in an exact sense only in a sort of intellectualist folklore; states even approaching them cannot be reached without a moral and emotional effort most of us cannot or will not make.”

WILFRED PETERSON –“The best leaders are very often the best listeners. They have an open mind. They are not interested in having their own way but in finding the best way.”

WILILAM JAMES –“There is only one thing a philosopher can be truly relied upon to do, and that is to contradict other philosophers.”

WILL AND ARIEL DURANT –“The future never just happened. It was created.”

WILL DURANT –“In my youth, I stressed freedom, and in my old age I stress order. I have made the great discovery that liberty is a product of order.”

WILL DURANT –“The love we have in our youth is superficial compared to the love that an old man has for his old wife.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“Ancient poets animated all sensible objects with gods or geniuses… choosing forms of worship from poetic tales. And at length they pronounced that the gods had ordered such things. Thus men forgot that all deities reside in the human breast.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“Excess of sorrow laughs. Excess of joy weeps.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“He who binds himself to a joy Doth the winged life destroy; But he who kisses the joy as it flies Lives in Eternity’s sun rise.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“I care not whether a man is good or evil; all that I care/ Is whether he is a wise man or a fool. Go! put off holiness,/And put on intellect… Men are admitted into Heaven not because they have curbed and governed their passions or have no passions, but because they have cultivated their understandings. The treasures of Heaven are not negations of passion, but realities of intellect, from which all the passions emanate uncurbed in their eternal glory. The fool shall not enter into Heaven let him be ever so holy.”

WILLIAM JAMES –“This life is worth living, we can say, since it is what we make it.”

WILLIAM JAMES –“This overcoming of all the usual barriers between the individual and the Absolute and we become aware of our oneness. This is the everlasting and triumphant mystical tradition, hardly altered by differences of clime or creed.”

WILLIAM L GARRISON –“Are right and wrong convertible terms, dependant upon popular opinion?”

WILLIAM L. SHIRER –“Most true happiness comes from one’s inner life, from the disposition of the mind and soul.”

WILLIAM LANDBURG –“Modern portfolio theory allows for the fact that financial markets are by their nature unpredictable. An infinite array of events that are, impossible to foresee or control affect returns — currency meltdowns, earthquakes, terrorist attacks and 100-year storms (which have a way of occurring every five years!). Logic and rational thinking rarely factor into the mix. As was seen in the dot corn era, a company’s underlying strength, reflected by such variables as profitability, earning prospects and market share, may have far less effect on share price than mindless exuberance. How else can we account for the swings and gyrations in the stock market in recent years?”

WILLIAM LANGLAND –“We should be low and love like and lean each man to the other And patient as pilgrims, for pilgrims are we all.”

Dreams come from not knowing

Sometimes, not knowing things can cause trouble. Other times, just the opposite is true.

How comfortable are you with not knowing? Now, not knowing some things can be a real disadvantage. It is important to know what you need to know in order to succeed at work, at home, and in any other way you choose.

But sometimes, not knowing can be a plus, and I’ll tell you what I’m talking about.

Did you ever have a dream or a goal and you say to someone, “Here’s what I’m going to do,” and they say to you, “Oh yeah? How are you doing to do that?” You don’t know how you’re going to do it. But instead of letting that stop you, instead of letting it mean the end of a dream, you go ahead anyway. Because sometimes not knowing the “how” of something means you are open to all possibilities. You are not sure, so you will be looking for opportunities. You will be opening your subconscious mind to scan for options, and you will find them.

So, you see, if you’re going to take a giant leap out of current reality, you need to stifle the need to know how, otherwise you will shrink your vision. You will deny yourself the chance to achieve your dream because it seems unrealistic, and you will invent a hundred reasons why you should quit before you even get started. What you need to do instead is grow into your dream and invent the “how” as you go along.

WC FIELDS –“Horse sense is the thing a horse has which keeps it from betting on people.”

WCLEMENT STONE –“There is little difference in people, but that little difference makes a big difference. The little difference is attitude. The big difference is whether it is positive or negative.”

WELSH PROVERB –“Three things give hardy strength: sleeping on hairy mattresses, breathing cold air, and eating dry food.”

WEMHER VON BRAUN –“Research is what I’m doing when I don’t know what I’m doing.”

WEN JLABAO –“Please just hold on, people are going to get you out of here.”

WENDELL BERRY –“Energy is superhuman in the sense that humans cannot create it. They can only refine or convert it. And they are bound to it by one of the paradoxes of religion: they cannot have it except by losing it; they cannot use it except by destroying it…”

WENDELL BERRY –“Men may dam it and say that they have made a lake, but it will still be a river. It will keep its nature and bide its time, like a caged animal alert for the slightest opening. In time, it will have its way; the dam, like the ancient cliffs, will be carried away piecemeal in the currents.”

WENDELL BERRY –“We are far more concerned about the desecration of the flag than we are about the desecration of our land.”

WH AUDEN –“We must love one another or die.”

WHITE –“In antiquity, every tree, every spring, every stream, every hill had its own genius loci, its guardian spirit… Before one cut a tree, mined a mountain, or a brook, it was important to placate the spirit in charge of that particular situation, and to keep it placated. By destroying animism, we have only ended up exploiting nature in a mood of indifference to the feelings of natural objects.”

WHITE HOUSE –“The sound of the Shafer heralds the beginning of a new year and a time of remembrance and renewal for the Jewish people. During these holy days, men and women are called to reflect on their faith and to honour the blessings of creation.”

WHITTIER –“The smile of God is victory.”

WHOOPI GOLDBERG –“It never occurs to me that there are things I can’t do.”

WIKIPAEDIA –“Researchers reason that all living humans descend from Africans, some of whom migrated out of Africa and populated the rest of the world. If the mitochondrial analysis is correct, then because mitochondrial Eve represents the root of the mitochondrial family tree, she must have predated the exodus and lived in Africa. Therefore many researchers take the mitochondrial evidence as support for the “single-origin” or Out-of-Africa model.”

WIKIPAEDIA –“As Mahalakshmi, the supreme Goddess of Love and Delight, she lends grace and charms everything divine or human. As Mahasaraswati, the Goddess of Divine skill and Knowledge, she is the firefighter and trouble-shooter for the entire universe.”

WIKIPAEDIA –“Hypertextuality is the interconnectedness of all literary works and their interpretation. A woven fabric of cultural consciousness is imitated and, in fact, investigated.”

WIKIPAEDIA –“Primordial Parashakti is the ultimate dynamic energy of transcendental Brahmn… Brahmn is attributeless whereas Parashakti has many attributes. While, Brahmn has only to be cognised, Parashakti can be worshipped with name and form. She is Divine Will personified. She isconscious power beyond everything. She is the invisible and constant presence that sustains the world, linking form and name, holding them in interdependence. There is nothing impossible for Her She is the Universal Goddess. She is all knowledge, all strength, all triumph and all victory she is the Goddess Supreme, Maheshvari, who brings to us the total state of illumination.”

WIKIPAEDIA “Shakti is Mother of the universe. She creates, preserves, dissolves. She is the sat and so creates. She is chit, so she is life. She is ananda or bliss. He is also possessor and controller of opposite qualities: Destruction, death and terror as Mahakali, Goddess of Supreme Strength.”

WIKIPAEDIA –“Space-time entails a new concept of distance. Whereas distances are always positive in Euclidean spaces, the distance between any two events in space-time — called an “interval” — may be real, zero, or even imaginary.”

WIKIPAEDIA –“The real purpose of the Paryushan is to purify our soul by staying closer to our own soul, to look at our faults, to ask for forgiveness for the mistakes we have committed, and take vows to minimise our faults. We try to forget about the needs of our body and our business so that we can concentrate on our-self. Swetambers celebrate eight days of Paryushan and the last day is called Samvastsari. In these eight days most of Jains keep fast in many ways and all Jains keep fast on Last day of Paryushan. The process of shedding our KARMAS really begins by asking for forgiveness with true feelings and to vow not to repeat mistakes. The quality of the forgiveness requires humility and suppression of anger.”

WILCOX AND MUMFORD –““I don’t care how poor a man is; if he has family, he’s rich.”

WILFRED B L TROTTER –“The dispassionate intellect, the open mind, the unprejudiced observer, exist in an exact sense only in a sort of intellectualist folklore; states even approaching them cannot be reached without a moral and emotional effort most of us cannot or will not make.”

WILFRED PETERSON –“The best leaders are very often the best listeners. They have an open mind. They are not interested in having their own way but in finding the best way.”

WILILAM JAMES –“There is only one thing a philosopher can be truly relied upon to do, and that is to contradict other philosophers.”

WILL AND ARIEL DURANT –“The future never just happened. It was created.”

I have the opportunity/ once more to right some wrongs,/ to pray for peace, to plant a tree,/ and sing more joyful songs.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“Ancient poets animated all sensible objects with gods or geniuses… choosing forms of worship from poetic tales. And at length they pronounced that the gods had ordered such things. Thus men forgot that all deities reside in the human breast.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“Excess of sorrow laughs. Excess of joy weeps.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“He who binds himself to a joy Doth the winged life destroy; But he who kisses the joy as it flies Lives in Eternity’s sun rise.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“I care not whether a man is good or evil; all that I care/ Is whether he is a wise man or a fool. Go! put off holiness,/And put on intellect… Men are admitted into Heaven not because they have curbed and governed their passions or have no passions, but because they have cultivated their understandings. The treasures of Heaven are not negations of passion, but realities of intellect, from which all the passions emanate uncurbed in their eternal glory. The fool shall not enter into Heaven let him be ever so holy.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“I have mental joys and mental health, Mental friends and mental wealth, I’ve a wife that I love and that loves me; have all but riches bodily.”

An infinite array of events that are, impossible to foresee or control affect returns — currency meltdowns, earthquakes, terrorist attacks and 100-year storms (which have a way of occurring every five years!). Logic and rational thinking rarely factor into the mix. As was seen in the dot corn era, a company’s underlying strength, reflected by such variables as profitability, earning prospects and market share, may have far less effect on share price than mindless exuberance. How else can we account for the swings and gyrations in the stock market in recent years?”

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“Here comes one with a paper: God give him grace to groan!”

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“Here feel we but the penalty of Adam, The seasons’ difference, as the icy fang And churiish chiding of the winter’s wind, Which, when it bites and blows upon my body. Even till I shrink with cold, I smile and say, “This is no flattery”.”

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“How poor are they that have not patience What wound did ever heal but by degrees?”

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“I like this place and willingly could waste my time in it.”

WILLIAM WORDSWORTH –“The World is too much with us; late and soon, Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers; little we see in Nature that is ours; we have given our hearts away, a sordid boon! This sea that bares her bosom to the moon; The winds that will be howling at all hours, And are up-gathered now like sleeping flowers; For this, for everything, we are out of tune; It moves us not — Great God! I’d rather be A Pagan suckled in a creed outworn; so might I, standing on this pleasant lea, have glimpses that would make me less forlorn; Have sight of Proteus rising from the sea, or hear old Triton blow his wreathed horn.”

Everyone lets the present moment slip by then looks for it as though he thought it were somewhere else. No one seems to have noticed this fact.

When one understands this settling into single- mindedness well, his affairs will thin out.”

If you should fall ill one day no one will visit you because, for your part, you did not formerly concern yourself about others. Grant other people something also.

WENDELL BERRY –“Men may dam it and say that they have made a lake, but it will still be a river. It will keep its nature and bide its time, like a caged animal alert for the slightest opening.

We try to forget about the needs of our body and our business so that we can concentrate on our-self. Swetambers celebrate eight days of Paryushan and the last day is called Samvastsari.

WILLIAM BLAKE –“Ancient poets animated all sensible objects with gods or geniuses… choosing forms of worship from poetic tales. And at length they pronounced that the gods had ordered such things. Thus men forgot that all deities reside in the human breast.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“Excess of sorrow laughs. Excess of joy weeps.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“He who binds himself to a joy Doth the winged life destroy; But he who kisses the joy as it flies Lives in Eternity’s sun rise.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“I care not whether a man is good or evil; all that I care/ Is whether he is a wise man or a fool. Go! put off holiness,/And put on intellect… Men are admitted into Heaven not because they have curbed and governed their passions or have no passions, but because they have cultivated their understandings. The treasures of Heaven are not negations of passion, but realities of intellect, from which all the passions emanate uncurbed in their eternal glory. The fool shall not enter into Heaven let him be ever so holy.”

WILLIAM L. SHIRER –“Most true happiness comes from one’s inner life, from the disposition of the mind and soul.”

An infinite array of events that are, impossible to foresee or control affect returns — currency meltdowns, earthquakes, terrorist attacks and 100-year storms (which have a way of occurring every five years!). Logic and rational thinking rarely factor into the mix. As was seen in the dot corn era, a company’s underlying strength, reflected by such variables as profitability, earning prospects and market share, may have far less effect on share price than mindless exuberance. How else can we account for the swings and gyrations in the stock market in recent years?”

WILLIAM LANGLAND –“We should be low and love like and lean each man to the other And patient as pilgrims, for pilgrims are we all.”

WILLIAM LANGLAND –“We should be low and love like and lean each man to the other And patient as pilgrims, for pilgrims are we all.”

WILLIAM LAW –“A life devoted to the interests and enjoyments of this world, spent and wasted in the slavery of earthly desires, may be truly called a dream, as having all the shortness, vanity, and delusion of a dream; only with this great difference, that when a dream is over nothing is lost but fictions and fancies; but when the dream of life is ended only by death, all that eternity is lost, for which we were brought into being.”

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“Have more than thou showest, / Speak less than thou knowest, /Lend less than thou owest, / Ride more than thou goest, / Learn more than thou trowest, / Set less than thou throwest; / Leave thy drink and thy whore, / And keep in-a-door, / And thou shalt have more / Than two tens to a score.”

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“Here comes one with a paper: God give him grace to groan!”

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“Here feel we but the penalty of Adam, The seasons’ difference, as the icy fang And churiish chiding of the winter’s wind, Which, when it bites and blows upon my body. Even till I shrink with cold, I smile and say, “This is no flattery”.”

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“How poor are they that have not patience What wound did ever heal but by degrees?”

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“I like this place and willingly could waste my time in it.”

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“If she be made of white and red,/ Her faults will ne’er be known,/ For blushing cheeks by faults are bred/ And fears by pale white shown:/ Then if she fear or be to blame,/ By this you shall not know,/ For still her cheeks possess the same/ Which native she doth owe.”

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“If you prick us, do we not bleed? If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us, do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall we not revenge? If we are like you in the rest, we will resemble you in that.”

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“Poor and content is rich and rich enough.”

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“Reflection is the business of man; a sense of his state is his first duty: but who remembereth himself in joy? Is it not in mercy then that sorrow is allotted unto us?”

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“When icicles hang by the wall,/ And Dick the shepherd blows his nail,/ And Tom bears logs into the hall,/ And milk comes frozen home in pail,/When blood is nipp’d and ways be foul,/ Then nightly sings the staring owl,/ Tu-whit; Tu-who, a merry note,While greasy Joan doth keel the pot.”

WILLIAM WORDSWORTH –“I made no vows, but vows/ Were then made for me; bond unknown to me/ Was given, that i should be, else sinning greatly/ A dedicated spirit.”

WILLIAM WORDSWORTH –“The World is too much with us; late and soon, Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers; little we see in Nature that is ours; we have given our hearts away, a sordid boon! This sea that bares her bosom to the moon; The winds that will be howling at all hours, And are up-gathered now like sleeping flowers; For this, for everything, we are out of tune; It moves us not — Great God! I’d rather be A Pagan suckled in a creed outworn; so might I, standing on this pleasant lea, have glimpses that would make me less forlorn; Have sight of Proteus rising from the sea, or hear old Triton blow his wreathed horn.”

WILMA RUDOLPH –“When I was going through my transition of being famous, I tried to ask God: Why was I here? What was my purpose? Surely, it wasn’t just to win three gold medals. There has to be more to this life than that.”

WILT ROGERS –“It’s not what you pay a man, but what he costs you that counts.”

WIN PE –“Monk-poet Shin Maha Thilawuntha wrote poems on the thoughts in the Dhamma like the deep tone of a palace drum heard in the far end of the realm. Shin Maharathathara wrote of the nature of kingship and of matters secular in poems like an ensemble for an anyein or like the warble of a karaweik. I marvel at their use of language and a vocabulary both precise and rich. From which deep intellect did they draw it. By which attrition are we losing it. I feel sad for our collective forgetfulness.”

If one fully understands the present moment, there will be nothing else to do, and nothing else to pursue. Live being true to the single purpose of the moment. Everyone lets the present moment slip by then looks for it as though he thought it were somewhere else. No one seems to have noticed this fact. But grasping this firmly one must pile experience upon experience. And once one has come to this understanding he will be a different person from that point on, though he may not always bear it in mind. When one understands this settling into single- mindedness well, his affairs will thin out.”

If you should fall ill one day no one will visit you because, for your part, you did not formerly concern yourself about others. Grant other people something also. The Yamana do not like a person who acts selfishly.”

Which do you prefer, being right or happy?

I want to ask you a question with far-reaching implications: Would you rather be right or happy? Today, we are going to look at several possible answers.

Some people sacrifice a lot in order to be right, because they think the way to be right is to make other people wrong. They spend a lot of time and effort doing so. Of course, people who are set up to appear wrong or poorly informed aren’t crazy about the feeling, so those who make others look bad, also make themselves disliked.

People who need to be right don’t take many risks either, and they avoid uncertainty like the plague. Many times they would rather lie than say, “I’m not sure,” or “Gee, I don’t know.”

On the other hand, people who would rather be happy than right, don’t care much about how smart they look. They realize that we are all on a learning curve. They know that the best way to help each other grow is to stop competing and start cooperating.

You see, life isn’t about showing other people up. It is about helping each other to see.

Each of us gets to decide for ourselves what and how much we want to look at, and whether we are willing to give – and accept – help. We also get to choose whether we are going to be right or happy.

Sometimes we can do both. But if you had to pick just one, which choice would it be?

WC FIELDS –“Horse sense is the thing a horse has which keeps it from betting on people.”

WCLEMENT STONE –“There is little difference in people, but that little difference makes a big difference. The little difference is attitude. The big difference is whether it is positive or negative.”

WELSH PROVERB –“Three things give hardy strength: sleeping on hairy mattresses, breathing cold air, and eating dry food.”

WEMHER VON BRAUN –“Research is what I’m doing when I don’t know what I’m doing.”

WEN JLABAO –“Please just hold on, people are going to get you out of here.”

WENDELL BERRY –“Energy is superhuman in the sense that humans cannot create it. They can only refine or convert it. And they are bound to it by one of the paradoxes of religion: they cannot have it except by losing it; they cannot use it except by destroying it…”

WENDELL BERRY –“Men may dam it and say that they have made a lake, but it will still be a river. It will keep its nature and bide its time, like a caged animal alert for the slightest opening. In time, it will have its way; the dam, like the ancient cliffs, will be carried away piecemeal in the currents.”

WENDELL BERRY –“We are far more concerned about the desecration of the flag than we are about the desecration of our land.”

WENDELL PHILIPS –“Difference religion breeds more quarrels than difference of polities.”

WERNER VON BRAUN –“Use the word “impossible” with the greatest caution.”

WERNHER VAN BRAUN –“Don’t tell me that man doesn’t belong out there. Man belongs wherever he wants to go— and he’ll do plenty well when he gets there.”

WES NISKER –“if you don’t like the news, go out and make some of your own.”

WH AUDEN –“A poet is a person who is passionately in love with language.”

WH AUDEN –“No human being can make another one happy.”

WH AUDEN –“No human being is innocent, but there is a class of innocent human actions called Games.”

WH AUDEN –“We are here on Earth to do good to others. What the others are here for; I don’t know.”

WH AUDEN –“We must love one another or die.”

WHITE –“In antiquity, every tree, every spring, every stream, every hill had its own genius loci, its guardian spirit… Before one cut a tree, mined a mountain, or a brook, it was important to placate the spirit in charge of that particular situation, and to keep it placated. By destroying animism, we have only ended up exploiting nature in a mood of indifference to the feelings of natural objects.”

WHITE HOUSE –“The sound of the Shafer heralds the beginning of a new year and a time of remembrance and renewal for the Jewish people. During these holy days, men and women are called to reflect on their faith and to honour the blessings of creation.”

WHITNEY HOUSTON –“It’s about believin’ when you ain’t got anything to believe in.”

WHITTIER –“The smile of God is victory.”

WHOOPI GOLDBERG –“It never occurs to me that there are things I can’t do.”

WIKIPAEDIA –“Researchers reason that all living humans descend from Africans, some of whom migrated out of Africa and populated the rest of the world. If the mitochondrial analysis is correct, then because mitochondrial Eve represents the root of the mitochondrial family tree, she must have predated the exodus and lived in Africa. Therefore many researchers take the mitochondrial evidence as support for the “single-origin” or Out-of-Africa model.”

WIKIPAEDIA –“As Mahalakshmi, the supreme Goddess of Love and Delight, she lends grace and charms everything divine or human. As Mahasaraswati, the Goddess of Divine skill and Knowledge, she is the firefighter and trouble-shooter for the entire universe.”

WIKIPAEDIA –“Hypertextuality is the interconnectedness of all literary works and their interpretation. A woven fabric of cultural consciousness is imitated and, in fact, investigated.”

WIKIPAEDIA –“Primordial Parashakti is the ultimate dynamic energy of transcendental Brahmn… Brahmn is attributeless whereas Parashakti has many attributes. While, Brahmn has only to be cognised, Parashakti can be worshipped with name and form. She is Divine Will personified. She isconscious power beyond everything. She is the invisible and constant presence that sustains the world, linking form and name, holding them in interdependence. There is nothing impossible for Her She is the Universal Goddess. She is all knowledge, all strength, all triumph and all victory she is the Goddess Supreme, Maheshvari, who brings to us the total state of illumination.”

WIKIPAEDIA “Shakti is Mother of the universe. She creates, preserves, dissolves. She is the sat and so creates. She is chit, so she is life. She is ananda or bliss. He is also possessor and controller of opposite qualities: Destruction, death and terror as Mahakali, Goddess of Supreme Strength.”

WIKIPAEDIA –“Space-time entails a new concept of distance. Whereas distances are always positive in Euclidean spaces, the distance between any two events in space-time — called an “interval” — may be real, zero, or even imaginary.”

WIKIPAEDIA –“The real purpose of the Paryushan is to purify our soul by staying closer to our own soul, to look at our faults, to ask for forgiveness for the mistakes we have committed, and take vows to minimise our faults. We try to forget about the needs of our body and our business so that we can concentrate on our-self. Swetambers celebrate eight days of Paryushan and the last day is called Samvastsari. In these eight days most of Jains keep fast in many ways and all Jains keep fast on Last day of Paryushan. The process of shedding our KARMAS really begins by asking for forgiveness with true feelings and to vow not to repeat mistakes. The quality of the forgiveness requires humility and suppression of anger.”

WILCOX AND MUMFORD –““I don’t care how poor a man is; if he has family, he’s rich.”

WILFRED B L TROTTER –“The dispassionate intellect, the open mind, the unprejudiced observer, exist in an exact sense only in a sort of intellectualist folklore; states even approaching them cannot be reached without a moral and emotional effort most of us cannot or will not make.”

WILFRED PETERSON –“The best leaders are very often the best listeners. They have an open mind. They are not interested in having their own way but in finding the best way.”

WILILAM JAMES –“There is only one thing a philosopher can be truly relied upon to do, and that is to contradict other philosophers.”

WILL AND ARIEL DURANT –“The future never just happened. It was created.”

WILL DURANT- “Education is a progressive discovery of our ignorance.”

WILL DURANT –“In my youth, I stressed freedom, and in my old age I stress order. I have made the great discovery that liberty is a product of order.”

WILL DURANT –“The love we have in our youth is superficial compared to the love that an old man has for his old wife.”

WILL DURANT –“The trouble with most people is that they Think with their hopes or fears or, wishes rather than with their minds.”

I have the opportunity/ once more to right some wrongs,/ to pray for peace, to plant a tree,/ and sing more joyful songs.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“A dog starv’d at the master’s gate/ Predicts the ruin of the State./ A horse misus’d upon the road/ Calls to heaven for human blood./ Each outcry of the hunted hare/ A fibre from the brain does tear,/ A skylark wounded on the wing,/ A cherubim does cease to sing.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“Ancient poets animated all sensible objects with gods or geniuses… choosing forms of worship from poetic tales. And at length they pronounced that the gods had ordered such things. Thus men forgot that all deities reside in the human breast.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“Excess of sorrow laughs. Excess of joy weeps.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“He who binds himself to a joy Doth the winged life destroy; But he who kisses the joy as it flies Lives in Eternity’s sun rise.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“I care not whether a man is good or evil; all that I care/ Is whether he is a wise man or a fool. Go! put off holiness,/And put on intellect… Men are admitted into Heaven not because they have curbed and governed their passions or have no passions, but because they have cultivated their understandings. The treasures of Heaven are not negations of passion, but realities of intellect, from which all the passions emanate uncurbed in their eternal glory. The fool shall not enter into Heaven let him be ever so holy.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“I have mental joys and mental health, Mental friends and mental wealth, I’ve a wife that I love and that loves me; have all but riches bodily.”

WILLIAM BLAKE –“I myself do nothing. The Holy Spirit accomplishes all through me.”

WILLIAM BUTLERYEATS –“Education is not filling a bucket but lighting a fire.”

WILLIAM CHANNING –“To live content with small means, to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion, to be worthy not respectable, and wealthy, not rich, to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly, to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart, to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never, in a word to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common, this is to be my symphony.”

An infinite array of events that are, impossible to foresee or control affect returns — currency meltdowns, earthquakes, terrorist attacks and 100-year storms (which have a way of occurring every five years!). Logic and rational thinking rarely factor into the mix. As was seen in the dot corn era, a company’s underlying strength, reflected by such variables as profitability, earning prospects and market share, may have far less effect on share price than mindless exuberance. How else can we account for the swings and gyrations in the stock market in recent years?”

WILLIAM M THACKERAY –“Mother is the name of God in the lips and hearts of children.”

WILLIAM Mc FEE –“The world belongs to the enthusiast who keeps cool.”

WILLIAM MCDONOUGH –“Don’t get me wrong: love nuclear energy! It’s just that i prefer fusion to fission. And it just so happens that there’s an enormous fusion reactor safely banked a few million miles from us. It delivers more than we could ever use in just about eight minutes. And it’s wireless!”
