Edgar Cayce said it is our birthright to communicate with our Source and listen to that still small voice from within our souls -- a voice that guides and inspires us to find the answers that lie within.

In Jung's cosmology, we learn to hold the space (the tension) between opposites. For instance, we waver, in our lives, between exile and return, between wandering and home. Wandering (whether we're cast out because of an illness, loss of fortune, inner calling, even a business trip) allows us to break away from our structured identities, and as analyst John Hill remarked, "reconstitute ourselves as artistically whole."
How Philosophy
Can Save Your Life
By Marietta McCarty
“What is the good life?” For more than twenty years I have been asking philosophers of all ages and in every imaginable setting this question.

Specific genes, such as the DRD4 gene and the VMAT2 gene, are part of the gene pool that provides a blueprint for the intrinsic states of happiness. Further, the existence of DNA strands that are expressed through mindfulness, prayer, and altruistic action provides evidence of a biological basis for spirituality.

Representing the principle of life on planet Earth, the Pleiades became the cultural axis of the ancient Mayan people.
