Keep it real.

“We are looking for something spectacular all the time. It is time we understand the most beautiful aspects of life happen slowly, gently, without any noise.”

— Jaggi Vasudev | found by calloftheancestors

In fact these slow, gentle, silent aspects of life go a long way towards making the spectacular things possible. Preparation and down-to-earth reasoning are a big factor in any highlight. Often they’re the most important factor. A strike of genius can’t be planned, forced or reached directly, but if you don’t work towards it, steadily and deliberately, there won’t be a chance for it to happen.

No great vision can come true if it can’t face facts. No idea can stand without a foundation made of reality. No act of idealism can succeed if it can’t cooperate with, confront, or combat realism.

My paradoxes in faith and life

-Holding contentment and desire in the same breath

-Being the prodigal son and the older son at the same time

-Christianity is very simple and complex at the same time. A child can understand it and if you are an intellectual there are endless depths for you as well.

-Loving myself and hating myself (hopefully the sins within me) at the same time

-Being a rap god and a cuddly little bunny at the same time

-(Knowing depression and the fact that I am stronger than I realize in the same thought)

-Having antidepressant withdrawal, including brain zaps, and epiphanies at the same time

-Receiving and giving at the same time

-Self-compassion yet self-motivation at the same time; aka agreeableness and assertive at the same time, within one self.

-Understanding and accepting that God has kind of a rather hot-headed nature in the Old Testament, which seems so vastly different from the crucified individual that is, Jesus; the ideal who is voluntarily willing to bear our suffering.

-God is both to be feared AND loved.

-In marriage there needs to be both “I just want to be loved” and “I want to strive to be a better character” models.   It also sounds like : “I just want to love you” and “I want you to be better character”.

-We die to live.  “...Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live.  and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die.  Do you believe this?” -John 11:25-26 ESV

-Loving the body that you were given yet wanting to change it’s shape/health. 

-Mercy and justice.

You may have heard that crystals and gemstones are powerful healing tools, or that they can create radical changes in your life. You may have also heard that there is zero scientific evidence of this. Both of those statements, in my view, are true. How is that possible? Just because we don’t know how an ancient healing technique works, doesn’t mean it won’t work at all. In fact, there are lots of healing remedies that were once considered woo-woo that’re now used in modern medicine. Medicine works on evidence. The thought process goes something like this: “Ok, once we understand exactly how it works, if it’s safe, and can measure its effectiveness precisely, we’ll give it to patients.” This is a great line of thinking! Modern medicine is wonderful in many ways, but it only knows what it knows. That is, they cannot measure the effectiveness of something that doesn’t claim to work on a physical level. Such is the case with crystals. According to crystal healing techniques, they work on the energetic-body: the chakras, meridians, or astral body. This is clearly beyond our ability to measure or understand at this time. Their effectiveness is purely subjective- that is, based on the testimony of those receiving the healing. How it Works While no one’s exactly sure how they work, the theory goes something like this: • Crystals (and many gemstones) are formed over millions of years under lots of pressure and heat. They usually come from cooling magma or evaporating water in enclosed rock formations (such as geodes). • The energy it takes to create even one crystal is very intense, and creates a pure element (diamonds are pure carbon). These pure elements, having been intensified naturally, somehow influence us by interacting with the subtle energetic-body and refracting our energy back to us in a different way; just as a crystal breaks down light into rainbow colors. • In turn, we re-absorb that energy, which can help us. So in effect, crystals help us to access what we already have. Especially in India, the ancients realized that these elements had a positive effect on us and could even help with specific ailments. This is why in nearly every culture in world history, there is a pattern of using precious stones or crystals as healing instruments. MANY people throughout history…I daresay millions- claim to have been healed in some way through the use of crystals. I don’t think they are all wrong…and I hope that as time goes by, we figure out the underlying reason why so many benefit from their use. How to Treat Yourself There are lots of different healing modalities using crystals, and they all have their own way of utilizing them. Reiki, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda, even Native American healing ceremonies all have their own practices. However, one thing they do share is that the effect is much more powerful when in direct or close contact with the skin. That’s why we sell lots of jewelry related crystals such as malas, necklaces, and earrings. Have you ever felt a healing event happened to you through the use of crystals or gemstones? Let me know below! I'd love to hear. 🙂

New Year's Revolution

New Year’s Revolution

It’s the start of another arbitrary division of a time dimension, so there are plenty of posts from people committing to do something or suggesting ways others might have a higher chance of succeeding at achieving that something. And plenty of people asking whether others have made any resolutions and what they are. In the spirit of efficiency – for is not a great way to find time for a new…

Holistic thinking is more valuable than IQ intelligence

Holistic thinking is more valuable than IQ intelligence

(General News) It’s not widely known, but the fact is “holistic thinking” is much more valuable in life than an expanded IQ or learned intelligence, says Natural Newsfounder/editor Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, in a recent podcast.

“Holistic thinking is far more important than raw IQ,” says Adams, who is also co-founder of TalkNetwork.com. “It turns out that many people who think they’re…

Stoep Chat

While smoking in broad daylight, Dunhill Nightcap – yes, its one of my favourites and can be smoked anytime of the day – in my Savinelli handmade Sigla, I decided to share two things with the pipe community.  Changing tobacco tastes and a business opportunity. Something which I actually knew a long time ago, suddenly dawned upon me – holistic thinking (aka systems thinking).  Let me explain; when…
