Don’t believe the evil and beat it. Evil tries to harden your wake-up process in the morning and it forces you to do things that you won’t do or want otherwise.

Do you remember times that wonderful ideas come to your mind at nights and when you wake-up in the morning, more than half of your ideas and the whole will about them are gone? That’s not necessarily depression. Even if it is depression, beware and realize that aren’t you the one who don’t seek solution to it?

Please be vigilant and beat the evil. It can’t overcome your body and soul even it tries to make you believe that it can.

Moreover, the dark side also stands for the feminine characteristics whereas the light and good side represents masculine characteristics, thus the male.

Well, this is an obvious misinterpretation of the symbol. It’s true that the downward looking triangle represents the female. However why evil, why dark? The symbol doesn’t mean a downgrade, it’s just the resemblance of sexual organs. It’s not necessarily a comparison or representation of good and evil.

We wish the world a better perspective where genders are not afraid from each other.

According to a news article on BBC, our DNA differs vastly from each other.

Scientists have shown that our genetic code varies between individuals far more than was previously thought.

A UK-led team made a detailed analysis of the DNA found in 270 people and identified vast stretches in their codes to be duplicated or even missing.

A great many of these variations are in areas of the genome that would not damage our health, Matthew Hurles and colleagues told the journal Nature.

But others are - and can be shown to play a role in a number of disorders.

It has been told that the 2012 transformation would involve DNA transitions. To us, it is not a surprising information to have that scientists also come to a conclusion about DNA differences and transformations.

Tao Te Ching, roughly translatable as “The Book of the Way and its Virtue”, is a Chinese classic text. According to tradition, it was written around 600 BC by the Taoist sage Lao Tzu (”Old Master”), a record-keeper at the Zhou Dynasty court.

Many Chinese people have used the Tao Te Ching as a source of inspiration. Its influence has also spread widely outside East Asia, aided by hundreds of translations into Western languages.

“Knowing others is wisdom;
Knowing the self is enlightenment.
Mastering others requires force;
Mastering the self requires strength;
He who knows he has enough is rich.
Perseverance is a sign of will power.
He who stays where he is endures.
To die but not to perish is to be eternally present.”

(Knowledge; chap.33)

The name Mevlana Celaleddin Rumi stands for love and ecstatic flight into the infinite. Rumi is one of the great spiritual masters and poetical geniuses of mankind and was the founder of the Mevlevi Sufi order, a leading mystical brotherhood of Islam.

“Love is the water of eternal life, cures every woe;
Gardens where lovers re-unite drive away all sorrow.
They say there is a window that opens from heart to heart;
If there are no walls, there is no need for any window.”

“To be a Sufi, forget the past, put it all away;
Turn a brand new page, rescue your being from yesterday;
Become a child of the present age, of youth, of wisdom,
Never leave this bountiful moment, this eternal day.”

We just heard about an earthquake in northern Japan and the tsunami warning issued.

We didn’t have detailed information yet. Our hearts are with our Japanese friends.

The anonymous story below is dedicated to people that have difficulties seeing, hearing and understanding the beauty, miracles and signs that the universe sends us.

A Spanish missionary, visiting an island, came across three Aztec priests. He wondered how they pray and asked one of them. The Aztecs answered that they know only one prayer. answered one of the Aztecs : “God, You are three, we are three. Have mercy on us.”

“Beautiful prayer” said the missionary. “But this is not exactly the prayer that God wants to hear. I will teach you a much better one.”

The priest taught them a Catholic prayer and went on teaching Jesus’ way and knowledge among others. Years later, on the ship taking him back to Spain, he stopped at that island again.

He saw the three Aztec priests on the shore and said goodbye to them. Then he suddenly saw the three walking on the water towards him.

“Father! Father!” shouted one of them, approaching the ship. “Teach us again the prayer that God wants to hear, because we can’t remember it!”

“It doesn’t matter,” said the missionary, seeing the miracle. And he asked God to forgive him for not understanding before that He spoke all languages.

Below are some of those prayers:

Dhammapada (attributed to Buddha)

Instead of a thousand words,
Better just one,
One that brings peace.
Instead of a thousand verses,
Better just one,
One that shows beauty.
Instead of a thousand songs,
Better just one,
One that spreads joy.

It has always been told that how small we are in comparison to the whole universe. On the other hand, believe that we are also very big and important. The yardstick to approach this confusion is balance between those imaginations.

Well, in everyday life, we tend to get angry about situations that are much less important than our presence in the universe. There isn’t too many things which are more important than just being. Just being who you are.

So, try to realize that our village, town or city, country, or the whole world is only a tiny detail in the picture. Not just in the sense of physical size but also in the sense of everyday rush.

If we can realize that any event we live and experience through is not the only chance we have then we would understand how free and lucky we are, as well as how responsible towards the universe, ourselves and the upcoming evolution.

“Even if I could talk through people’s and angel’s language, I were in the shoes of a prophet, I would have a faith that would move mountains… but if I don’t have love, I am nothing.”

Saint Paulus

God has been percieved in different ways since the primitive ages. For instance wind, thunder, storm, earthquake, and such natural disasters were to be believed as the face of God on earth and his call to humanity.

Although beliefs, prayers and services are differing in a wide range, there are mediums who tell us how to pray and service. Those are rabbis, priests and hodjas in three divine religions. This led humanity to an approach to God somewhere between fear and respect. That hides itself in our genes and subconscious today.

However, God is love, and it has it’s place in people’s heart. It stays where we usually tend to forget or be afraid to have a look at. God is in the depths of our hearts.
