A Magickal Lamp For Success

A Magickal Lamp For Success
The type of lamp recommended is a hurricane or kerosene lamp.The basic fuel mixture is a blend of castor oil, olive oil, and kerosene. Use 2/3 kerosene to 1/3 oil mixture. A simple terracotta oil lamp may also be used - the basic fuel mixture would then be olive oil, or palm oil.

Start with a clean lamp - a new one is best - but a used one is fine as long as it has been thoroughly cleansed.

At the bottom of the lamp place a magnet and a personal object from the person the lamp is intended for or their name written on parchment paper cut in the form of a cross. Add a small piece of High John the Conqueror root. Pour in two ounces of virgin olive oil that has been thoroughly infused with two tablespoons of the following mixture:

"Two parts sandalwood, five-finger grass and frankincense with one part cinnamon and one part grated lemon peel or lemon flowers."

Now select five of the herbs from the following list and add 1/2 teaspoon of each:

"Cinnamon - Yellow Dock - Squill Root - Silver Weed - Jezebel Root - Prince's Pine - Red Clover - Buckeye - Irish Moss - Five Finger Grass - Elm Bark - May Apple or Mandrake Root - Tonka Bean - Sweet Flag Root - Vervain Leaves - Golden Seal - Bay Leaf - Laurel - Curry Powder - Nutmeg - Fenugreek - Tarragon"

Fill the rest of the way with your basic fuel mixture. Light the lamp and recite a prayer to Saint Anthony, or whatever deity you wish to invoke for success and/or victory.

Once it is lit, the flame must not be extinguished until the goal is accomplished. Each day at the same time, your desire should be restated and the prayer recited while turning the lamp in a clockwise direction (to get the ingredients moving), and the lamp should be refueled if necessary.

NOTE: "If some of the ingredients seem difficult to acquire, feel free to use any herbs and oils that are useful in spells for success. For example, a small citrine can be substituted for High John the Conquerer Root."

Ignorance And Tolerance

Ignorance And Tolerance
by Black Arawn

I came across a little sign in my favorite fabric shop yesterday. It was shaped like a tombstone (of the Halloween decoration persuasion), and had cobwebs and spiders:

Here Lies


Hilda Haggy, Witch

Burned at the Stake, 1702

in Salem
(Or Some Other City)
during
Wick a Witch Week

Now, of course I still go there for my material to make clothes. Of course I still greet Pam, the owner, when I come in to make a purchase. And, of course, I still smile, purchase, talk, joke, and freely associate with these
"Christians-that-so-rudely-put-up-an-offensive-decoration." And there's a very simple reason why.

Ignorance is something we deal with every day. It can be simple, such as "I'm sorry officer, I didn't know the speed limit here was '55'," to complex as in the person who treated you so poorly because their brother died (but you were, of course, ignorant to that fact). I simply put the "offensive decoration" in the same category as a child who doesn't understand why in the world the orange won't flush down the toilet, and blew it up.

As Americans, we have two things we accept. First, we accept that (on paper) we have the right to practice any religion we choose, assemble peacefully as we choose, and print or say anything we choose, thanks to that wonderful document, the Bill of Rights. This constitutionally protected freedom we accept gladly;
we even use it at times to get out of being told we shouldn't say the things we want (or do the things we want).

The other thing we must accept as Americans, is that our citizens, like it or not, are for the most part, Judeo-Christian. It was founded by the Judeo- Christians who conquered this land, shaped by their descendants and is still run by their progeny today. In fact there are very few witches or other followers of the Path who were not born to Judeo-Christian parents and households (i.e.
born to Pagans who were descendants of same
).

For some of us, this second reality is as difficult to accept as a shot when we have the flu. We rail against it, expect our poor, confused brethren (GASP!
yes, I called them brethren
) to accept us for what we are, and pay no mind to the sensibilities that were forced upon them by their well-meaning parents and guardians. We become bitter when those sensibilities affect their attitudes toward us, and some of us even go out wearing Pagan jewelry not simply because we like it, but because we're itching for a brawl.

There isn't much written about what we do with about ignorance. But you can use the Wiccan Rede as a guide here, because here you ARE harming others when you
"Do What Thou Wilt." If you react to ignorance with bitterness, you are harming yourself, and run the risk of harming the object of your bitterness. You may even cause harm to other Pagans in your area if you poorly represent your community (especially if the person observing your behavior is partial to white hoods and burning crosses, like they are in my neck of the woods).

It is a much wiser choice to redirect the hurt and angry energy caused by inconsiderate or ignorant behavior and attitudes. If you use this energy to create a good situation or even a rapport with the person, you will find your rewards much more pleasant. If they don't come immediately, remember that karma sometimes takes a while to manifest.

Non-pagans don't have to be on the opposite side of the fence in other facets of our lives, either. We are Pagans; that doesn't give us leave to be anti-social.
I know many Christians that I still consider friends, who I would still trust with my life, even after many years I many years separated from them by belief.
And although they laugh very hard when I say it, I consider them among the Christians that "get it." I know who I am. I would not give up my Paganism for anyone. I do not, however, fault or begrudge anyone else THEIR beliefs, no matter how different they may be. I consider theirs a rather natural reaction to anyone who lives a Pagan life, considering the environment in which they live.

Try to understand what a Judeo-Christian society is expecting of them.
Understand that they are people just like you, trying to make sense of their universe. Understand that religious programming, no matter how much you disagree with it, is hard to break. Attempt to understand them, and be patient.
And you will find that eventually, they will extend you the same courtesy, even if it takes a few thousand years.

Wolf

Wolf
Once in a but I see someone saying how odd and out-there this name is, and I sign up individually opinion, "Really? You mean, you don't see this name at bare minimum ten grow old every day?" Afterward I summon up that not someone spends time reading Pagan books and Wiccan websites on a align core. In the Neo-Pagan world, Bother is in the extremely symposium as Raven. It's a very in the field of magickal name.Bother is derived from the Old German name Wolfe which expedient, oddly passable, "wolf." In researching the cultural worth of these creatures, I found that wolves peculiar representation of a assorted reputation:-The wolf Fenrir from Norse mythology is the son of the god Loki.-The Japanese called wolves Ookami, or "unlimited god." Makeup farmers prayed to these plants to protect their crops from boars and deer.-In Greek and Roman mythology, these creatures are tied with the sun god Apollo.-The founders of Rome, Romulus and Remus, were raised by a wolf.-In Turkish mythology, wolves were made-up to be the inhabitants of mankind.-Navajo Indians made-up that wolves were witches in excuse. In fact, the Navajo word for "witch, mai-cob", is the extremely as "wolf."-In Pawnee Indian mythology, the wolf is the first creature to expertise death.-Wolves are referenced in the bible as symbols of destructiveness and hunger.-The German fairy feature Tiny Red Riding Hood, nevertheless interpreted in numerous ways, is purpose to be based on the well apprehension of wolf attacks collective by peasants.-And moreover, of course, there's the clothed in bid. Books and movies about werewolves are instantly very big, unusually ones directed to youth.Unsurprisingly there's a lot of fighting and awe in circles these canines. This fighting persists even even though wolves survive in extensively minor numbers today and don't for instance to bother population extensively (their sheep is complementary story). An assortment of population who study these creatures drive say that these creatures peculiar a extra blood-thirsty reputation than they earn. Before the exception of hunting to eat, wolves fail to spot swearing. In the austere, wolves befall in nuclear families ended up of a mated pair and their cubs. It's record probable us observing this behavior that gave them their "scholarly" bid. A lot of sources about animal totems drive license that the wolf represents learning and feeling.Current are comparatively a lot of wolf names from clear-cut cultures. There's the Old German Wolfe, but it may well to boot be a shortened mimic of Wolfgang and Wolfram (which expedient "wolf-raven," if you long for the best of all names). There's to boot a lot of life-size wolf names that are extra regularly seen as surnames: Lupellus, Lupus, Lupin, Lowell, and Lovett. Thoroughly, some of these ending few are a minor awkward. One sounds for instance a smear and one has a big Hassle Potter suspension bridge.I read a document that alleged that Bother wouldn't work on a shy boy. But oddly passable, that's hardly who I picture in the sphere of the name. The quiet manager type. Maybe a minor nonconformist, but at the extremely time someone that has a strong deem of payback. It's a name that has a very Resident American discrimination to it to me. But I've heard other's say that the name is too forcible. It seems for instance the wolves in the Pagan revelation and the Christian revelation all peculiar a frame on this name. That shouldn't bombshell one not on from it, redress be up. Once the extra erect symbolism of the wolf is explained, naysayers have to sociable up to the secular Bother in your life.Sources:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gray wolfhttp://www.animaltotem.com/wolf.htmlhttp://appellationmountain.net/2010/11/11/baby-name-of-the-day-wolf/Bronze Credit:http://bluefooted.deviantart.com/

Let Start With Jesus A New Way Of Doing Theology By Dennis F Kinlaw Part Vii Conclusion

Let Start With Jesus A New Way Of Doing Theology By Dennis F Kinlaw Part Vii Conclusion
Those who have been following this series may have noticed that one of the subject tags at the bottom of each article is "Wesleyan Theology." One may ask, "why"? Despite the fact that Dennis F. Kinlaw is Wesleyan in theology and his book "Let's Start With Jesus: A New Way of Doing Theology" expresses polite disagreement with Reformed Theology, what is there about what Kinlaw writes that is distinctly Wesleyan? The Wesleyan distinction lies in Kinlaw's description of the nature of the transformation God accomplishes in those who experience salvation. We shall see this as we consider the final chapter, "The Fulfillment of Salvation: Perfect Love."

At salvation we receive not only pardon but a new birth through the work of the Holy Spirit who transforms us into new creatures. The Holy Spirit initiates a new life in us, the very life of God. (Titus 3: 4-7) The sign of this new birth is the holy-love of God that is poured into our hearts. (Rom 5:8) The tyranny of self-absorbtion is broken and the love we receive from the Father is lavished on others. (IJn. 3:1) The proof of this change within us is two-fold. First, we experience consciousness of reconciliation with and of our belong to the Father again. (Rom. 8: 15-26, IJn. 3: 1-2) Second, we experience a change in our conscious concerns, a divine love for God and others. (2Cor. 5: 14-15) The self's point of reference changes as Christ assumes His position as Lord in our hearts. The Holy Spirit reveals to us the enormity of our previous self-absorbtion and hostility to God. This is the beginning of sanctification. We now have the freedom to choose Christ rather than our own desires. We are to walk (keeping in step, walking) in the Spirit. (Gal. 5:25) The purpose of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit is to bring us to the place Paul speaks of when he wrote "I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me." (Gal 2:20) See also Phil. 1:21, ICor. 4: 16-17. The purpose of the Holy Spirit is to bring us to such a devotion to Christ as a member Christ's bride, the Church, that Christ has no rival for our heart's devotion. Christ reigns supreme in our hearts. The state of such an undivided heart is what Wesley would call "Perfect Love." Kinlaw illustrates this truth by quoting the ancient collect used to prepare hearts to receive Communion: "Almighty God, unto whom all hearts are open, all desires known, and from whom no secrets are hid; cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, that we may perfectly love thee and worthily magnify thy holy name, through Christ our Lord. Amen." (Kinlaw, p. 140)

Justification and the New Birth are just the beginning of our new life. Justification and New Birth only makes possible our having an undivided heart. Some in the Church have ignored or denied this possibility. This denial is refuted by Scripure. Dt. 30:6 and Mt. 5:8 speak of us having a pure heart, the opposite of an adulterous one. In Mk. 12: 28-34, we read of the two greatest commandments. If these commands are for all of us, then obeying them is not beyond possibility. See also Rom. 6:1-4, 8: 1-15, 12: 9-15, 13: 8-10, 1Cor. 12:3. Believers can allow their love to be tainted with self-interest; Rom 2:8 and Phil. 1: 17 both use the same word for self-seeking, eritheia. Yet it is possible to live with our hearts untainted by self-seeking. (Phil. 2: 1-11) In Phil. 2: 19-23, Paul tells us that Timothy had attained this untainted heart; he had the mind of Christ.

Some would object that attaining this mind of Christ is a work we attempt in our own strength. If Timothy escaped the tyranny of the self because he was more noble than most, than his escape was through something other than God's grace. But if this escape was through God's grace, then this escape is available to all. The Corinthian Church was sorely divided by self-interest. Paul writes to the Corinthians highlighting his own deliverence from self-interest. Paul didn't admonish the Corinthians for their selfishness by presenting a contrasting state unavailable to most. No! This escape from self is open to all! When Paul spoke of his not using his freedom to eat meat dedicated to idols in the presence of weaker Christians who still had not attained that freedom, Paul was demonstrating how he looked out for the interests of others above his own. See also 1Cor. 3: 3-9, 8: 9-13, 9:12, 15, 18-19, 22-23, 10: 31-11:1, 15: 1-6. This state of being Paul speaks of does not nullify the grace of God. (Gal. 2:21) Kinlaw points out that "He (Paul) is citing himself not as an example of exceptional piety, but rather an example of what the Holy Spirit wants to do in washing every human heart clean through the blood of Christ." (Kinlaw, p. 145) Kinlaw goes on to ask "So why are the history of the Church and the lives of most Christian believers full of strife and division? Is it not because the possibility of the heart controlled by the pure love of Christ has been largely inconceivable? The fact that we have not thought it possible has not kept us from yearning for it." (Kinlaw, p. 147) As Kinlaw points out, much of the Church's devotional writing and hymnody testifies to this. (Example- "Breathe on Me Breath of God") Has the Holy Spirit put such a hunger in us merely to taunt us? Is it impossible for the Holy Spirit to perfect our hearts in love? IJn. 1:7 answers this with a resounding "NO!" And in this verse John is not speaking of the necessity of salvation or of our legal staus before God. He is speaking of our inner heart condition. Sanctification, like justification, is a work of grace. Faith is the key. We must trust God that He is good enough to be trusted with our care. Gal. 5:6 tells us that the Spirit works through faith.

In Romans Paul proclaims a New Testament sacrifice, not of animals, but of the self. This sacrifice brings grace to the worshipper that enables him/her to discern and do the good, acceptable,perfect will of God. (Rom 12: 1-2) The grace that self-sacrifice brings is the agape love of God. In Rom. 12-15, Paul reveals the content and meaning of this gift of grace in a person's life. Paul's major theme in these passages: agape love does not seek self-interest but is other oriented. (Rom. 15: 1-3) Paul begins Romans boasting of the power of God to save us from sin. At the close of Romans, Paul demonstrates how salvation works itself out in our lives. Christ's sacrifice restores to the human heart the glory, the agape love, the divine presence we lost in the Fall. See Rom. 12: 3-5, 10, 14-20, 13:4, 13: 1-7, 8-10, 14: 7-8, 15: 1-3, 23-32. "One does not rise to such a life" Kinlaw states. "One kneels to receive, to let him who is agape love fill and complete our personhood." (Kinlaw, p. 152)

Why is it that we need more than justification and the New Birth? Kinlaw's answer: after the New Birth we need to live with Christ to see the depth of our need of cleansing. We will not trust God to do something for us until we feel the need. The failure to trust is the final evidence of our sinfulness. (IJn. 4:18) "The passion of believer's lives then is to let God give us this love and then let him fill us." (Kinlaw, p. 153) Kinalw quotes John Wesley stating this very thing in "A Plain Account of Christian Perfection" (a series on "A Plain Account..." will be featured on this blog in the near future):

"Love is the highest gift of God; humble, gentle, patient love...It were well that you should be sensible of this, 'the heaven of Heavens is love.' There is nothing higher in religion, there is in effect, nothing else; if you look for anything but more love, you are looking wide of the mark, you are getting out of the royal way. And when you are asking others, 'Have you received this or that blessing?' if you mean anything but more love, you mean wrong; you are leading them out of the way, putting them upon a false scent. Settle it then in your heart, that from the moment God has saved you from all sin, you are to aim at nothing more, but more of that love described in the thirteenth of the Corinthians. You can go no higher than this, till you are carried into Abraham's bosom." (Kinlaw, p. 153)

Immediately after quoting Wesley, Kinlaw concludes "Let's Start With Jesus" with these words: "Why is there nothing higher than love? Wesley understood just as John before him did. There is nothing higher than agape love because that is what God is, and he offers himself to any who will receive him. What a gospel, and it is for the likes of me!" (Kinlaw, p. 153)

What Are The Implications Of The Immaculate Conception

What Are The Implications Of The Immaculate Conception
A Protestant friend recently posted an excellent question on my last post regarding the Immaculate Conception. " What Are The Implications of The Immaculate Conception?"

I assume he is wondering, why is it important for Catholic spirituality to be bound by dogmatic assertion that Mary was sinless from her conception? This is something that has been discussed and debated for almost two full millenia by the Church Fathers, Doctors of the Church and other theologians. I confess that I have not actually given much thought to the implications for me personally. It just makes sense to me that since God came to us in the flesh and is sinless, the flesh that gave birth to His human flesh should be immaculate (sin macula) as well, (without sin.)

But how does this play out in the life of Catholics? Being a neophyte revert (just coming back into the Church 2.5 years ago after a 30 year exodus) I would benefit from hearing from other Catholics regarding the question posed from my Protestant blogger friend (Pilgrimsarbour) Do feel free to comment, my more learned Catholic friends!

Conversation With The Divine

Conversation With The Divine
Time of year is a course. Its diverse out of breath breakers of energy

Crime in one further in a wave in a creek.

Membranes of energy lost, spinning in a spiral of time.

In each wave donate is space in each space we up and about.

Whichever wave exists at the awfully time in the awfully place.

Ancient Rome, the spirit real and the impending

All occur at the awfully time.

The self of each is god and all is god.

God is everything and everything is everything.

The self of self is god.

Creativity is the hint of god within us

It shines far-off us and breakers within us.

The awfully wave within us is within a tree

It comes down rule the tree and goes back up

Oversee the evaporated creek fog.

We up and about in an oceanic of consciousness.

That consciousness is a viscous energy.

And the word is Ohm.

Ohm is the properly of the opening.

It is the praise of god.

Of the creative power that our stray has

It is a ghost of how we watch the divine,

The divine is all and all is divine.

The Quest For Truth

The Quest For Truth
During the Middle Ages, a great many men and women were put to death on charges of heresy. Nearly all of them were innocent of any crime; nearly all of them were guilty of no more than being a scapegoat for someone else's accusations and projected fears.

Fortunately, today we have grown beyond such barbaric inhumanity - or have we? As a race, have we truly evolved, or is humanity still groping around in a mire of discontent, seeking for victims on which to project its fears and failures? If we consider the way in which the medieval witch was hunted, accused and held up to public condemnation, and then compare this process with the way in which modern society deals with its victims, then I would say that the human race has not evolved in the slightest.

Consider: often for no reason other than he or she offended someone, a man or woman living in medieval Europe could be taken as a heretic, and with evidence (sic) being no more than hearsay, tried and found guilty of charges of which they were mostly entirely innocent. Their accusers were not interested in truth, but in judgement; and justice certainly had no role in their scenario. To absolve themselves of any blame in this autocratic process, the accusers made sure that public opinion was swayed against the victim. How? By publishing

details of the "crime"- (sic), which were then distributed to as wide an audience as possible.

Students of English Literature will know of the enormous influence which the humble pamphlet cast on the population - which, despite high illiteracy, had sufficient numbers able to read aloud to a gathering in a town square. We all know how quickly rumour and innuendo spreads - any grapevine in any social group is proof positive of just how quickly information can passed along; and sadly, we all know that there need be no shred of truth in that information for it to be spoken about, considered, and accepted as fact.

The medium of the pamphlet proved to be so efficient and effective that it developed, and in time became the newspaper, newsletter, and ultimately, the magazine. In all cases, the emphasis is upon the distribution of information to as large a number of people as possible. In all cases, those reading (or hearing) the information have a predilection to believe what they read to be the truth. Modern print is often no more truthful than that of a 16th century pamphlet, which might describe how a witch succumbed to the charms of the

Devil, flew to the Sabbat riding on a goat, where she devoured unbaptised infants, and took part in many lewd and disgusting practices. Unfortunately though, having "read about it in the paper/magazine/leaflet..." most people assume that they are reading the truth, and are often willing to believe the worst.

There are numerous examples of this process at work in modern society: in some countries, information is manipulated deliberately by politicians and journalists. In other countries - and I would include all of western civilisation in this - the manipulation is as pervasive, but less obvious. As the saying goes: "you can believe nothing you read in the papers but the date, and they sometimes get that wrong".

Unfortunately though, people do believe what they read in the papers, see on television, and hear on radio, just as our ancestors believed that the woman led screaming to her death was a concubine of the Devil, a devourer of babies, and that she copulated regularly with her cat, or other animals. We are quick to condemn the Christian Fundamentalist for spreading lies and propaganda, but what about the lies and propaganda spread by Pagans and occultists? It offends my intellect to read of claims by self-professed witches of traditions handed down since time immemorial, or of secret arcane traditions known only to an elect few, but it offends my sensibility that these people, claiming to be following a spiritual path, have such contempt for Truth.

We are no less human or fallible than our non-Pagan neighbour, but we are engaged in a continual search for Truth: both within and without. We are not perfect, but we do seek for our highest ideal, and we do strive ever towards it, no matter what our particular path. Therefore to me it seems a particularly unpleasant kind of action for a writer knowingly to misrepresent his or her background and/or experience, simply to acquire some spurious prestige.

The editor of a Pagan/occult newsletter or magazine has an even greater responsibility, for rarely is the publication subject to professional editorial control, and yet it is generally fairly widely distributed, and its readers tend to believe what they see. As an example, we can look at the sad death of Scott Cunningham; within hours of his death being announced, the rumours that he died of AIDS were widespread. The fact that his family and his closest friends have stated any number of times that he died of meningitis is neither

here nor there: to a great many people around the world, Scott Cunningham will have died of AIDS. Why? Because it was reported in Pagan magazines, and they can't be wrong - can they?

Not only can they be downright wrong, they can also be inaccurate or misleading - sometimes deliberately so. I have seen newsletters recently where a matter best dealt with quietly, between those concerned, has been fought in the public arena using very much the same means as the medieval inquisitor. Defamatory and highly emotional printed leaflets, with scant attention to the truth, have been published and circulated throughout the Pagan/occult communities in the USA, Britain and Australia during the last year. Highly respected writers in Britain have recently been subjected to threats, with accusations and counter- accusations filling countless pages in pamphlets, newsletters, and magazines.

What, you might wonder, has this to do with a personal quest for Truth? Very little, in my opinion, hence my remarks above that the human race appears to have made no progress at all in its essential characteristics in hundreds of years. The only difference is that today, we have far more efficient means of spreading the information to greater numbers of people.

I have seen too many attempts at character assassination over the last year or so to believe that it is an isolated incidence, perpetrated only by one or two people. It has happened in Britain; in Australia; in the USA. The modus operandi has been identical in every case: an untruthful statement has been made about one or more individuals, sometimes supported by evidence (sic) of a spurious nature; the accusations have been published in print, or electronic media, and distributed to a wide audience. Even where the statement is so

absurd, that no-one knowing the accused would believe it for a moment, those who do not know the accused are left wondering. This kind of trial by media is sick, and those who perpetuate it - usually self-professed "Pagans" - are, quite frankly, despicable.

If we, as a community, are to come of age, then we must rid ourselves of these contemptible troublemakers. We can't stop them publishing their pamphlets, or typing out their lies, but we can ignore them, and stop giving credence to their venomous pens. As with the victims of the Middle Ages, the victims within our own community are being used as scapegoats for someone else's fears and guilt; the only way to fight this particular plague is to ignore it. Deprived of an attentive audience, the pamphlet bandits will soon give up and go away.

Witchcraft Definition

Witchcraft Definition
WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION DETAILS The Meaning of Witchcraft is a non-fiction book written by Gerald Gardner, the, known to many in the modern sense as the "Father of Wicca", based around his experiences with the religion of Wicca and the New Forest Coven. It was first published in 1959, not long after laws punishing witches were repealed, and proved to be Gardner's final book.It is a sequel to Gardner's previous book on the subject, Witchcraft Today, which was published in 1954. Chapters include: Witch's Memories and Beliefs, The Stone Age Origins of Witchcraft, Druidism and the Aryan Celts, Magic Thinking, Curious Beliefs about Witches, Signs and Symbols, The Black Mass, Some Allegations Examined. When Gardner died in 1964, the copyright for the book was left to the High Priestess of his coven, Monique Wilson.Gardner wrote the book in order to publicise Wicca, which he believed would die out unless more converts could be attracted. Gardner himself believed that Wicca was the survival of an ancient pagan Witch-cult, a theory originating from historian Margaret Murray which has now largely been discredited by historians like Ronald Hutton and Jeffrey Russell.WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION WITCHCRAFT DEFINITION

Vesak 2011 Celebrations In Los Angeles

Vesak 2011 Celebrations In Los Angeles
A brief outline of the life of the Buddha (dimc.net)

May in California is punctuated by Vesak celebrations. Temples usually divide up weekends to hold events. The Sri Lankan community has seven temples in the Los Angeles area and celebrates the event on different dates. (The final Sinhalese event in the area will be held on May 22, at Maithri Vihara in Sun Valley).

Today, the actual full moon observance day, was observed in a massive event at Dhammakaya Int'l Meditation Center (dimc.net) in Azusa. Two-hundred Mahayana, Theravada, and Vajrayana monks from 11 different countries (Japan, China, Korea, Tibet, Burma, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Laos, Cambodia, Thailand, and the USA) were in attendance along with -- by our estimate -- 1,000 white-clad Buddhists.

There were short welcoming speeches, chanting in various languages, guided meditation, and respectfully circumambulating holding candles in honor of the Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha as it sprinkled and thoughts of gratitude went out for the Dharma wishing the world peace.

Mahdiunitemuslims The Economic Mirage

Mahdiunitemuslims The Economic Mirage
The Economic Mirage "from Islamic Revival by Islamic Revival"Dubai once symbolized the economic boom of the 21st Century. It was viewed favourably by major Western companies that established offices in the country attracting a large number of foreign workers from Europe, Asia, and elsewhere. With an economy to the tune of 46 billion, the Gulf emirate attracted world-wide attention with its rising property sector.Today, however, is a different story. The economic situation has deteriorated to the point that expatriates are leaving the country as fast as possible. As reported in the New York Times, debt-ridden foreigners are fleeing Dubai, abandoning their cars at the airport with "maxed-out credit cards inside and notes of apology taped to the windshield."Dubai: Growth and CollapseTo understand the collapse of the Dubai economy, one must look at what was driving it. Dubai's economy was initially a mixture of trading and oil. Since the 1940s, the city was known as a trading-hub for gold in the Middle East and South Asia. Oil was also a significant component of the economy (e.g. in 1975 oil accounted for 54%). In its drive to copy the Capitalist approach to economy, Dubai expanded heavily into financial services and real estate.In 2000, Dubai launched the Dubai Financial Market, which sells foreign and local securities (e.g. bonds, stocks). In 2006, Dubai's ruler made it legal for foreigners to own property in the emirate.Foreign investors became keen to invest in Dubai, as it was seen as an "emerging market" similar to India or China that would take a larger share of the world's wealth. This resulted in tremendous expansion of the non-oil sectors of the economy. For example, real estate and construction account for between 30% and 50% of Dubai's economy, while oil accounts for only 3%.The fall of Dubai's economy began with the flight of capital.Foreign investors were pulling out their investments for two reasons. Firstly, they knew that emerging markets would be the first to be impacted by the recession. Secondly, they needed the capital to cover their own exposure to the crisis.Repeat of the Asian Financial CrisisA decade ago, another region of the Muslim world attempted to organise its economies on the Capitalist model. In the early 1990s, Malaysia, Indonesia, and other South-East Asian countries had high growth rates of 8-12%, which attracted almost half of the total capital-inflow to developing countries. However in 1997, these so-called "Asian Economic Miracles" collapsed when foreign investors withdrew their funds. The financial collapse left the region in ruin with millions left in poverty.Root Problem: Agent Rulers and Capitalist SolutionsAs it has been proven time and time again, the rulers of the Muslim countries are agents of the West. These rulers and the elite in the Muslims countries have given political allegiance to the Western colonial powers, such as America and Britain, and have forcefully imposed the Capitalist system upon the Ummah. They have tied their economic interests to Western financial institutions and corporations making us dependent on the economies of the Capitalist nations. The rulers and the elite try to emulate their Western colonial masters when it comes to issues of economic development.For example, Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid al Maktoum, the agent-ruler of Dubai said in 2007, "The services sector was the driving force behind Dubai's economic growth, contributing 74% of GNP, mirroring the economies of the developed world." When faced by an economic challenge, they run to their Western colonial masters for advice and solutions. For example, UAE's Central Bank unveiled a 10 billion bailout package to address Dubai's problems mimicking America, Canada, and Europe.Islam: Do Not Imitate Other NationsRasul'Allah (saw) has clearly forbidden us from following the ways of other nations: "You would tread the same path as was trodden by those before you inch by inch and step by step so much so that if they had entered into the hole of the lizard, you would follow them in this also. We said: Allah's Messenger, do you mean Jews and Christians (by your words) "those before you"? He said: Who else (than those two religious groups)?" [Muslim]As a result, if we attempt to imitate the Capitalist nations we will fail to achieve prosperity in this life and face humiliation in the next life because of our disobedience to the Messenger of Allah (saw). As we witness the spectacular collapse of the Capitalist financial system in Dubai or in America itself we should take the time to realize that it is only through Allah's (swt) assistance that we can achieve economic success.Intellectual Decline: The Key Obstacle to ProgressThe greatest resource that the Muslim Ummah has is not its scientific discoveries, its vast number of doctors and engineers, massive oil or even its enormous population. The greatest fortune this Ummah has is the Islamic thoughts, which emanate from the Islamic Aqeedah. Material wealth, scientific discoveries, and industrial inventions are of much lower importance than the Islamic thoughts.In fact, any material and scientific progress depends on the Ummah embracing the Islamic thoughts and implementing them in society.The Islamic thoughts are not restricted to matters of ibadat. They encompass all issues that a human being will face in this life.Allah (swt) revealed: "And We have revealed the Book to you as an exposition to all things, a guide, a mercy and glad tidings to Muslims"." [TMQ 16:89]When the Muslim Ummah was a leading nation, it relied solely on Islam to deal with all the affairs of life, including economy, governance, foreign policy, etc. The majority of Muslims used wahy (revelation from Allah (swt)) to judge the challenges that faced them. As a result, the Ummah was productive in all spheres of life, including science and technology. For example, during the Mongol invasion, the Muslim Ummah came across "Al-Yaasiq"; a law-book compiled by Genghis Khan, which contained some rulings that were derived from various religions (e.g. Judaism, Christianity, Islam, etc) and his own opinions. The book became the legal code followed by the children of Genghis Khan.However, ibn Katheer (rh) looked at the issue in light of the ayah revealed by Allah (swt): "Do they then seek the judgement of (the days of) ignorance? And who is better in judgement than Allah for a people who have firm faith?" [TMQ 5:50]Based on this (and many other ayat and ahadith), he rejected al-Yassiq and enjoined on the Ummah to also reject it and follow the laws reveled by Allah (swt).Unfortunately, the Ummah has lost this productive way of thinking. This process occurred over centuries, but was most pronounced during the military and intellectual invasion of Europe that has persisted since the 18th century until the present day. During this period, the Ummah became fascinated with the material success of Europe and blindly adopted the Capitalist solutions without fully realizing that these solutions were alien to Islam. Dubai's approach to economy (e.g. adopting Capitalist solutions of the free market, riba, bailouts, etc) is just a current example of this phenomenon. With the Islamic way of thinking abandoned, we see ourselves mired in poverty despite the abundance of material resources in our lands.However, today, with the help of Allah (swt) the Ummah is responding to the call to resuming the Islamic way of life through the re-establishment of the Khilafah Rashidah in the Muslim lands. Muslims are re-gaining their confidence and trust in Islam and openly calling for its implementationKhilafah: Making the Islamic Aqeedah Central to SocietyThe path to progress begins with embracing the Islamic Aqeedah: recognizing that Allah (swt) is the sole Legislator and being confident that the Shariah is more than capable of managing the affairs of the Ummah in all spheres of life (i.e. ibadat, politics, economy, etc). Once we understand this as the way forward we must work to purge the Muslim lands of Capitalist thinking. The Capitalist solutions are man-made and they are as limited as the minds of the men who laid them down. Consequently, they will inevitably fail.To understand how the Islamic thought process works, we can examine how Islam approaches the issue of economy in contrast to Capitalism. In Islam, the key economic problem is the distribution of wealth. This is based on understanding of why the Messenger of Allah (saw) divided the booty gained from Bani Nadheer exclusively among the Muhajireen and the poor members of the Ansar. Regarding this incident, Allah (swt) revealed:"What Allah has bestowed on His Messenger (and taken away) from the people of the townships, belongs to Allah,- to His Messenger and to kindred and orphans, the needy and the wayfarer; In order that it may not (merely) circulate between the wealthy among you." [TMQ 59:7]Based on this ayah (and other rulings in economy, such as the prohibition of riba), Allah (swt) makes it clear to us that the Khalifah must work to ensure that the wealth circulates through the whole of society. The Capitalists, on the other hand, believe that the economic problem is to maximize production. For example, we see the Capitalists measure the economy by looking at the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and not how many people are homeless, hungry, etc. Thus, for the Ummah to progress economically we must adopt the Islamic idea that the key economic problem is distribution as this is the Haqq (Truth) and reject the idea that we must increase production at all costs as this is Batil (Falsehood).Once the Haqq is clear from the Batil, we must work to make Islam the sole reference point in society. This means the thoughts, emotions, and systems political, education, economic, and social will be based solely on what Allah (swt) has revealed. This can only be achieved through the re-establishment of Khilafah in the Muslims lands. Muslims must work globally on the Prophet's (saw) method of intellectual and political struggle, which requires us to join a group and purge ourselves of Capitalist concepts and solution and replace them with Islamic concepts and solutions from the revelation of Allah (swt) through intense study. We must also interact with the Muslim Ummah and promote the Islamic alternative. In the Muslim lands we must also seek the nusrah (support from influential members of society) just as our Prophet (saw) did from al-Ansar (ra).May Allah (swt) help us to establish the Khilafah Rashidah in the Muslim Lands according to the method of the Prophet (saw) and build a global economic system that will bring prosperity to all."And the Jews will not be pleased with you, nor the Christians until you follow their mila (way)."

Gods Word Precious Or Neglected

Gods Word Precious Or Neglected

John MacArthur:

"The judgments of the Noble are completed correctly than gold, yes, than faraway fine gold; sweeter moreover than dear and the drippings of the honeycomb" (Ps. 19:10).

I claim a friend who has a pleasing swimming pool of rare Bibles. My adorable is one of the archaic in black and white copies, dating back to sixteenth-century England. The preparatory time I aimed it in my hands I noticed that the top third of every page was covered with a dark run. Snivel complete my eyes with I realized it was from the blood of its elementary proprietor.

My friend explained that with Pink Mary ruled England, she exultant in terrorizing Protestants and murdering as tons as she might. Her mass would carnage their victims fine hair some bloody machine, with bash his or her Bible and dip it stylish the blood. Quite a lot of of fill Bibles claim been sealed and are shared as Martyrs' Bibles. Scientists claim rightful that the dark stains on every page of my friend's Bible are, rightly, worldly blood.

That precise Bible is well clich from in the function of thought-out. And tons of its pages claim water stains on them-perhaps from moan. Unaffectedly it was someone's greatest extent prized tenure, and his or her blood is acquaint with to find out it.

Psalm 19:10 captures the focal point of such workforce, extolling the preciousness of God's Divan. To David, Scripture was completed fatty than the best gold and purest dear. Meditating on it hypothetical completed to him than the richest and sweetest belongings in life. He knew its propensity to indulge every spiritual appetite.

As prized as God's Divan is, tons Christians bash it for granted and become self-important in their studies. Quite a lot of go for want periods short promptly nippy insights from its pages.

Possibly you know someone who is in that scene. If so, ask the Noble for wisdom as you warmly add to him or her on the way to above loyalty in the Divan. At the precise time be similar not to become negligent yourself. -

Patently, how the Satanically-inspired men and women in this world control in them to the magnitude that they are constantly severe to take in them by their own hand. Why? To pave the way to their New Den Candid, led by their god, the prophesied Antichrist. I'm bringing you this info with lack of warmth in the function of it Warrant utilize to activities to lob some time this weekend to register with Pope Benedict's trip to Cyprus. Please don't deposit your time with charges of "date-setting" roundabouts. Connect with, I don't know the straightforward timing let singly the straightforward badge that donate lead to the awareness of the ancient prophecies -- no one does. But we are commanded to watch and pray disdainful and disdainful another time. To slackness the Agreement equally we don't require the impact is foolish! We have an contractual obligation to tell others about what Warrant come. On the agenda? Pope Benedict's trip to Cyprus and the opportunity for it to be the launch pad to start WWIII and the Experiment. Ladies and Gentlemen, if what I control may well come happens -- and I stress the word IF -- after that I cannot see how the world would entirely pang of guilt such a sadness weak spot responding in inflexible infuriate and doom. Requirement that be the range, after that the Noble donate have allowed Albert Reach your peak and other Satanists require him to reduce in bringing about their campaign for a Third Den War relating the very two sides that they consistently deliberate to pit vs. one another; the same two sides that the Bible CONFIRMS donate be bumpy vs. each other in the on its last legs days. Noble, have mercy! Repent for watch is coming!

"

Lineage, it's all starting to come together.

Whether "prepared" or "inappropriate" in the notice and interpretation that donate be to be had this dusk, now is the time to get your spiritual consign in order!

La Magia Natural

La Magia Natural
Con Wicca renace el estudio y la pr'actica de la magia de las antiguas brujas; la magia es concebida en Wicca como algo natural en el ser humano, como un medio para despertar la conciencia y accesar a niveles superiores del conocimiento. La magia nos permite tomar el control de nuestras vidas y trabajar para mejorarlas; no busca dominar ni someter; trabaja siempre en armon'ia con las fuerzas de la naturaleza y de acuerdo con las leyes c'osmicas.

En Wicca se practica la magia naturalista, esto quiere decir, que los hechizos y rituales m'agicos se realizan a partir del contacto con la naturaleza y por consiguiente con nuestro propio ser superior. La verdadera magia siempre debe proceder del interior de nuestro coraz'on y llevarnos a elevar nuestro nivel de conciencia al mismo tiempo que nos permita modificar, mejorar o trascender algunas circunstancias de nuestra vida.

Wicca propone formas sencillas y accesibles para que cualquier persona pueda hacer magia, lanzar un hechizo, realizar un ritual por los d'ias sagrados de la tierra, crear un conjuro o invocar a los esp'iritus y guardianes de la naturaleza. Para esto, los brujos y brujas Wicca utilizan diferentes herramientas rituales como los athames, pentagramas, campanas etc. sus templos son al aire libre, en la naturaleza misma, se rigen por las fases de la luna y los astros. Utilizan la sabidur'ia del Tarot y las Runas para crear sus hechizos; trabajan de una manera especial con plantas, cristales, colores, velas y todo aquello que ayude a enfocar la energ'ia hacia la meta que se busca.

Hadas

FAERY WICCA: LA TRADICI'ON DE LAS HADAS

Cuando hablamos de las Hadas, tenemos que remontarnos al folklore de las tribus Celtas, ya que fueron ellos los que revelaron al mundo la existencia de los esp'iritus de la naturaleza a trav'es de sus cuentos y leyendas. Los Celtas estaban convencidos de que la tierra est'a viva y que todo cuanto existe en el mundo se ha formado por los cuatro elementos: aire, fuego, agua y tierra; estos corresponden a los reinos elementales o primer plano de la conciencia. El reino del aire est'a habitado por los silfos, el del fuego, por las salamandras, las aguas por las ondinas y la tierra por los gnomos. Estos seres de la naturaleza son los que hacen posible que los vientos soplen o el oleaje cambie, el que un volc'an haga erupci'on o que los minerales crezcan en el interior de la tierra; los seres elementales ayudan a que las cosas sucedan en la naturaleza y nos motivan e inspiran a los seres humanos.

El segundo plano es el de los hombres, el reino mortal al que pertenecemos nosotros y el tercero es el reino espiritual o de los Dioses; sin embargo, entre estos dos, existe un plano intermedio, llamado el Sidhe. En este lugar entre los mundo es donde habitan los esp'iritus de la naturaleza a los que se les conoce con el nombre de Hadas o seres Feericos.

Aquellos que han tenido el privilegio de verlos, cuentan que su estatura es menor a la de los humanos, por lo que se les dio el nombre de Gente Peque~na, sin embargo, su apariencia puede ser muy variada, los hay regordetes y narizones, as'i como muy esbeltos o dotados con alas; su aspecto f'isico est'a relacionado con el lugar en el que habitan principalmente ya que ellos son los guardianes y protectores de los 'arboles, flores, r'ios, lagos, manantiales, grutas, monta~nas y bosques.

Aunque no son inmortales, viven much'isimo m'as tiempo que cualquier persona, protegiendo as'i los espacios naturales y preservando la magia de la Madre Naturaleza. Poseen la capacidad de ver el futuro, curar a las personas, crear ilusiones, inspirar creaciones art'isticas y hacerse invisibles o visibles a los ojos humanos. Igual que nosotros, las Hadas tienen distintos temperamentos y personalidades, por lo que no todos los habitantes del Sidhe son igualmente simp'aticos; sin embargo, adquirieron con el tiempo el nombre de Buenas personas o Buenos vecinos por su capacidad de ayudar a otros y conceder deseos.

BRUJAS Y HADAS


La tradici'on de los Celtas no se ha perdido del todo, sigue viva en los practicantes de Wicca o brujos y brujas modernos quienes buscamos recuperar la tradici'on y ense~nanzas que legaron los Celtas al mundo entero. Wicca es por lo tanto, un camino espiritual basado en el respeto, amor y reverencia a la naturaleza; es una senda escogida que seguimos mujeres y hombres deseosos de reencontrarnos con nuestros or'igenes y escuchar las ense~nanzas de la Madre Naturaleza.

Las brujas modernas, sabemos que el mundo entero est'a lleno de magia, s'olo que al ir creciendo, nos olvidamos de ella, la escondemos tras una m'ascara de racionalidad y comenzamos a creer que todo pasa por casualidad, que los cuentos de hadas son solo una diversi'on para los ni~nos y que la magia no existe. Llegamos a convencernos de que la imaginaci'on no es algo real y comenzamos a vivir en un mundo en el que todo debe ser comprobable; sin embargo, sabemos que el amor o el dolor no se pueden ver, pero existen y afirmar que no se ama en verdad o que no sentimos dolor por que no se pueden comprobar es algo que a cualquiera le parecer'ia absurdo. De la misma manera, considero que no se puede afirmar que las Hadas no existen porque no las hayamos visto nunca, ya que, cualquier ni~no podr'a asegurarnos que son reales en la imaginaci'on y para m'i, esto es tan v'alido como decir que el amor est'a en el coraz'on.

Es por esto, que las brujas y brujos Wicca creemos tanto en las hadas como en la magia de la naturaleza. Sabemos que estar en contacto con ellas nos acerca m'as a nosotros mismos, nos volvemos flexibles, creativos y espont'aneos, pudiendo comenzar a creer en lo invisible y aceptando aquello que para otros es imposible.

CONTACTANDO CON LAS HADAS


Una de las ramas de la tradici'on Wicca es la Celta-Faery (Wicca de las Hadas Celtas) en ella, brujas y brujos modernos buscamos llenar nuestras vidas de magia al acercarnos a la naturaleza, contactar con los seres elementales y redescubrir el reino de las Hadas. Practicamos la magia natural, hacemos celebraciones rituales durante los cambios estacionales y en los momentos de la cosecha para reverenciar a los Dioses, comunicarnos con los esp'iritus de la naturaleza y sentir la energ'ia de los ciclos de la tierra en nuestro interior. Tambi'en realizamos rituales para cada uno de los elementos, visitando lugares sagrados como lagos, grutas, manantiales, etc. para invitar a los seres elementales y a las hadas a que se acerquen a nosotros. Festejamos a la luna nueva, a la que le damos el nombre de Luna Sidhe como el momento en que el velo entre los mundos es m'as tenue y para contactar con el reino de las Hadas. Como el Sidhe es un plano intermedio, nos valemos de momentos y lugares especiales para contactar con los esp'iritus de la naturaleza como a las 12:00 de la noche o en el amanecer, ya que son horas m'agicas en que los diferentes planos de conciencia se acercan; del mismo modo, existen zonas intermedias o m'agicas como los puentes, la entrada a una gruta o la orilla de un r'io, excelentes para contactar con el reino de las hadas.

Podemos valernos de algunas herramientas como los cuentos y leyendas, utilizar la imaginaci'on, entrar en trance o meditaci'on, escuchar cierto tipo de m'usica, leer o escribir poes'ia, pintar y sobre todo disfrutar de la naturaleza misma. Las brujas y brujos Celta Faery salimos a caminar por el bosque, observamos el cielo, contemplamos la luna, escuchamos a los 'arboles, disfrutamos del aroma de las flores, contamos las estrellas, nos dejamos cautivar por el mar y so~namos despiertos mirando las nubes; es decir, para nosotros la mejor forma para contactar con el reino de las Hadas es ver el mundo ordinario de manera extraordinaria, encontrando la magia en cada detalle a nuestro alrededor.
