One thing I have noticed about myself is whenever there is a "judgement" resentment will follow in some form or another. Hello Soul I have noticed that about myself too. Nowadays, I am exploring my state of mind and oft times I go through this forum again and again just to be more clear about things. It is "Being Judgmental", I have been thinking about since yesterday. What I have noticed about myself is that normally I judge people when they are abusive, or when they are exploitative, or when they are controlling, or when they are inconsiderate, or when they are indifferent. I am also resentful when people keep on repeating the painful act despite being told that it hurts. What should be the correct thought pattern and right state of mind in such conditions ? I look forward for lots of feedback. Love and Peace.

Sorry I used the term "I judge people" in my views above, by mistake. What I should have said is that I feel bad to the extent of resentment when I am badly effected by abuse, control, manipulation, indifference, etc. So do such behaviours fall into the category of those related to childhood neglect?

What should be the correct thought pattern and right state of mind in such conditions ? Bad news travels fast. Good (normal) behavior prevails, so we take it for granted. Then when someone steps out of line everybody notices and comments on it right away. The correct thought pattern should be to take more notice of the good and have the grace to consciously take note of our many blessings - and see the bad is a forgivable side effect.

Soulatom passed away yesterday morning. She battled with breast cancer for seven long years. The damage to her body was severe and the side-effects from the chemo-therapy almost as bad. In the end she gave up the medicine and shared her thoughts with us on this thread.
The miracle cure of the body never happened, but a spiritual miracle far more profound took place.
Soul found her soul here and now she rests in peace. God Bless you my dear.

When I joined this forum I had a mind full of questions and I didn't know which one to ask first. So I let myself flow with whatever came to my mind first. Things started to make sense when gentle, loving and aching Soul Atom started writing her analysis of herself and that was the beginning of a bond that secretly developed for her in my heart. I received her welcoming message in my mailbox and from that day onwards looked forward to hearing from her. I did not know who she was but her views made me understand the wonderful soul that resided in a beating, pulsating human heart. I found the answers of many of my unasked questions in her posts and marvelled at her ability to look inside the cores of being. I respected her for her perserverance and loved her for her innocence.
I had time constraints and could never participate in the forums regularly and to my satisfaction.
Last thursday my friend informed me about the demise of a blessed lady and the way she described her instantly reminded me of my beautiful Soulatom. "Oh God Please.....", were the only words that came to my mind with a painful wave in my heart. I couldn't think what to wish for in my incomplete prayer to God. The next day I accessed my mailbox as soon as I got to my office. There was a two liner from Soul dated April 16, 2008, waiting for me in which she apologized for not being able to answer my posts in the forum because of ill-health.
I found it hard to concentrate on work and my kind kept repeating, "Oh God, it can't be her". Today, I found Magnetman's post informing all the members of Soulatoms transition, and all that may mind keeps saying on and on is "Oh God......", "Oh God......", Oh God.....".
I still have a post in my mailbox that need to be replied to.

I still have a post in my mailbox that need to be replied to. Please reply, on this forum or Soul's private box. Soul's body may be gone but she promised to remain close in spirit. She was and still is the mother and step mother of eight wonderful young people.

Dear Magnetman, I have done so.
From how I understand Soul, I am sure that she is a "Mother" in true divine essence.
May God bless her and her loved ones even more. and may He protect all of her loved ones. Amen.
Love, Peace & Prayers.

Dear MM please help mw with this. I want to do Yoga that suits my particular spiritual gift. First of all, I have posture problem due to spinal tilt and pelvic tilt. How can I do exercises related to yoga with my physical condition? From the age of forty onward it is important to exercise strenuously enough to increase heart-rate and allow increased blood-pressure to force oxygenated blood out to the furtherest capillaries. This keeps sinews and the skin young and supple. Working up a sweat helps to flush out the pores of salt blockages. In your condition, if at all possible, join a wheelchair sports club - or simply start training on it alone. Work up gradually until you are going as fast as you can for as long as possible. Tone the upper-body muscles and work up a sweat for twenty minutes a day, Tabinda. The body is the temple of the soul and you are the care-taker. Try your hardest to keep it fit. A moderate diet is important. If you are born with a good musical ear, then Bhakti yoga - singing and chanting joyful hymns and praises to God - is your natural yoga gift. It is the fastest and happiest way to feel God in your heart. I have found Hindu kirtans are the most melodious and most joyous. They have a hundred names for God. Join a choir group. If you have a vivid imagination and can conjure mental images easily, then Kriya is your gift. This is a very complex form of yoga with specific mental drills regarding envisioning the chakra system. Let me know if you have the gift of imagery and we can explore this further. If you are of an analytical mind-set, then jnani is your path. Since the left brain is highly critical and takes decades to exhaust all questions before surrendering to the right brain, jnani is the longest and hardest path. Raja yoga is a combination of all the above. Discover what spiritual gift is most attractive and begin devout practice. When the Cosmic God is seen, spiritual healing is accomplished. Love and Peace to you. Tabinda. tabinda in addition to the above you can do sitting yoga exercises. ask a trainer how or just get a yoga video and adapt the exercises that you can do to your level. to work up a sweat you can sit on the floor and mop. you dont need to do the entire house at a time. only do as much that does not leave you half dead. remember you need energy for others in your life. if possible do swimming. it is the best thing (imo). well it works for me. you can do a variety of exercises on the bed too , just focus on the muscles that you want to work on. i.e feel your muscles working, very easy once you get in the habit of it. i have some of the same problems as you. i know how the mind stops working when one is too tired . happy discovery of what you can do with what you have. cheers

Your post is indeed very helpful. I'll contact a trainer and seek his/her opinion about whaich sitting and lying exercises will be easier and work best for me. Shall write more later. Love and Peace. Tabinda.

Wow, I found this to be very a fascinating read. Bless you soul, for baring your soul I was one of those one in a million miracles..I had cervical cancer in 2004 and opted out of treatment and made a huge leap of faith and let the Creator take over. Although, I knew of A mission, it wasn't my choice as to what it was. I still don't know WHAT it is ..everytime I think I may be on to what it is, something gets pushed in the way..I resonate with the Buddists Karma, as far as suffering to ease someone else's pain. I have honestly volunteered myself to ease other's pain. And at times thought I really wouldn't make it..Now,I see myself as more of a filter, filtering out the poisons of the world.. lessening the effects of the foul world we have created.. I'm not sure if that is what, I am supposed to be doing, but right now, it is what it is.. Although, I am sure I need to strengthen myself with exercise or yoga. and I definitely need to stop feeding the dragon. I have seen from Soul's posts that where I was sure I was, that I am not even close to where I a meant to be.. keep the faith..

It's a bit difficult to go into through an electronic membrane, but I have written it out before.. I can only start from diagnosis. I was diagnosed with high grade squamous cell carcinoma, in Aug of 2003, I was scheduled for surgery at the beginning of Sept and I was talking to one of my clients about this Doctor, and she had had a miscarriage (and she felt he was partly responsible, on account of she told him her water broke and he sent her home and she had the baby in the bathroom that night) in the past and she begged me to get a second opinion. So, I did. Same diagnosis. Not real fond of that doctor either, I finally found an amazing Dr. By the name of Dr. James Horlacter. I was sad, because, I had never had children and I really was anxious, but after more diagnostics, he figured my best bet was to go ahead and have a complete hysterectomy. I scheduled the surgery for Dec 13th 2003. I felt uneasy about it, not really wanting to go through it and having to wait until it was done to decide if there was going to be chemotherapy and radiation. I decided to pray about it on the Thursday before and God showed me a vision of what was to transpire,if I opted out of treatment. what I saw was myself with a tall man and a baby. Like every doubting Thomas, I asked for 3 signs. A woman I never met walked into my shop sat down and said "I think they do an awful lot of unessacary hysterectomies. Then, I challenged God, saying yeah how am I even going to have a baby when my periods are all screwed up. In that instant I started my period.. No joke, THAT INSTANT.. I was like "you're funny" So, I called the Dr. and got the scheduling nurse, and she was freaking out, and the next thing I heard was "this is Dr. Horlacter, speaking" well, I explained to him what I believed and he said, we'd do another procedure called a cold knife conization and if it came back with unclear edges, he made me promise that I'd have the hysterectomy. I made the promise. I waited 6 days to find out the outcome. And there was no cancer. It was GONE! On my follow up visit, he said "I have seen lots of things happen that were'nt because of me and I had no hand in this. I have went for all of my 6 months checks and every one has been clear. It's been 5 years. He signed of as me being cured in July 2008. There has been no tall man, nor has there been a baby. But, I have lived with more feelings since then. I think, it has made me appreciate things that most people take for granted. I try to live life gloriously. appreciating moment to moment. you never know how long you are gonna be here.

I know that it will give doubters pause. Time is relative. Heaven is here and and now. You are in its center not waiting to enter Every moment is complete with everything that ever happened and ever will. I have found that predictions/intuitions take their own time to manifest. I have had over a dozen and eventually over a period of thirty years all but three of them have been fulfilled to the very last letter. I await the other three with confidence.
