Quote of the Week
"He who dwells in the body of everyone is eternal and invulnerable, O Bharata, therefore you should not grieve for any creature whatsoever."

Commentary:    In truth, every part of us and of everything in creation is just an expression of our single common Source (Brahman, God, etc.,) which is eternal, and therefore cannot be damaged or destroyed.  What we perceive as being born, living, and eventually dying is but an illusion, similar to the variety of illusory things we perceive in our dreams.  Things that seem real while we dream but upon awaking we realize that they were all just fictional items of our dream.  The quote reminds us that He (Brahman, God, etc.,) dwells in the body of everyone, which means that we are united with that which is eternal and invulnerable.  We therefore have no reason to grieve any apparent loss because we know that God is the one ultimate Source, and we along with everything in creation is forever united with that Oneness.  Once we truly understand our connection to the eternal (personified Brahman, God, etc.,) then will we recognize God in ourselves, in everyone, and in everything

SUPERHUMAN: The Invisible Made Visible documents the jaw-dropping experiences of individuals with extra-sensory powers that seem to defy the laws of physics known to man today.  Caroline Cory, who has her own extensive experience in the field of Consciousness Studies and Extra Sensory Perception, takes the viewers on an extraordinary journey to achieve tangible and measurable proof of these seemingly miraculous phenomena. Through a series of groundbreaking on-camera scientific experiments, viewers will find themselves connecting the dots about the true nature of their own consciousness, the relation between mind and matter and discover whether they live in a simulated matrix or if they can have control over their physical reality and create a fulfilling human experience. The film ultimately shows that once the invisible worlds are made visible, this attained higher awareness will transform humans into superhumans.

Quote of the Week
"One sees Him as a wonder, another likewise speaks of Him as a wonder, and as a wonder another hears of Him.  Yet even on (seeing, speaking and hearing) some do not understand Him."

Commentary:   “Him” refers to the transcendental Atman, the eternally unified personified soul (Brahman, God, etc), and we are all His unique expressions.  He is a wonder indeed, for even in seeing Him, speaking or hearing about Him, He remains a great mystery to understand because He is transcendental to all of physical creation.  We can only really know Him by setting aside the facade we call the ego-self, which we created to experience the apparent separate physical reality.  When we no longer identify as this facade, we become Him, our true identity as stated in the Mundaka Upanishad 3.2.9: “The knower of Brahman becomes Brahman,” which is yet another expression of the general principle that in the transcendental state of consciousness or Turiya1 “What we see we become,” as expressed in Patanjali’s Yoga Sutra 2.4.  He is the Source, the course, and the Goal of all that exists; He alone is all that is; everyone and everything abides in Him, and outside of Him, there is nothing.
