Yin/Yang Symbol by Michael Corthell In ancient Chinese philosophy, yin and yang ("dark-light", "negative-positive") is a philosophical conceptualization that describes how obviously opposite or contrary forces may actually be complementary, interconnected, and interdependent in the natural world, and how they may give rise to each other as one thing like a coin or a living being has a front and back that cannot be separated. In Chinese cosmology, the One( the Universe) creates itself out of a primary soup of material energy, organized into the cycles(waves) of Yin and Yang and it is then formed into objects and living beings.  Yin is the receptive and Yang the active principle, seen in all forms of change and difference such as the annual cycle (winter and summer), the landscape (north-facing shade and south-facing brightness), sexuality (female and male), and the formation of both men and women as manifestations of the One. In Taoist metaphysics, distinctions betw

If you've ever heard the phrase "like attracts like," then you're already familiar with the basic premise of The Law of Attraction .

The nature of time is black and white, a dance of shadows and gleaming light, A never-ending cycle, a constant sight, guiding us through every day and night... by Michael Corthell Isaiah 45:7 states, "I form the light and create darkness, I bring prosperity(peace) and create disaster(evil); I, the Lord, do all these things."  This verse has been interpreted in various ways, but one interpretation is that it suggests that good and evil are naturally balancing forces in the universe. This idea of balance between good and evil can be compared to the concept of yin and yang in Chinese philosophy, which represents the complementary and interconnected forces of nature. The yin and yang symbol depicts two halves of a circle, one black and one white, each containing a smaller circle of the opposite color. This symbolizes the idea that each force contains the seed of the other, and that they are constantly in a state of dynamic balance. Similarly, the concept of wave/particle duality

    'Earthrise' Presented by  The Vegan Project The human race is and has been for over a generation, in the middle of a revolutionary paradigm shift in consciousness, one that will only change our entire global civilization for the better - a New World. Looking through history, it’s very clear that the world has undergone many of these shifts.  A paradigm shift is a fundamental change in approach or underlying assumptions. For example, when Pythagoras proposed that the Earth was round instead of flat, the foundation of science and people’s understanding of the world was completely changed. Similarly, when the Industrial Revolution took place there was a complete shift in manufacturing, lifestyle, and economics.  A paradigm shift will literally shake a society, or an entire civilization to its core, by making it veer off its current path, and driving it toward a new one. Though it might appear the opposite in the corporate-controlled mainstream news, it appears that t

Fear and anxiety are the driving emotions behind hate and anger. Fear and anxiety are made worse by impatience, hurry, and ignorance.  by Michael Corthell Hurry Sickness or the Fear of Not Having Enough Time By definition, hurry sickness is “a behavior pattern characterized by continual rushing and anxiousness; an overwhelming and continual sense of urgency.” ''There is always a bit of fear where there is a bit of hurry. When you hurry to the train you are in fear that you may be left, and with that comes fear of other possibilities consequent on your being left. When you hurry to the party, to the meeting of a person by appointment, you are in fear of some ill or damage resulting from not being in time...''  - Prentice Mulford, ''Thoughts are Things'' (1889) As if that isn’t bad enough, it’s also defined as “A malaise in which a person feels chronically short of time, and so tends to perform every task faster and to get flustered when encou

by Michael Corthell The writer/poet Ella Wheeler Wilcox gave evidence of her understanding of the supreme, intangible force of the subconscious mind in this verse: “You never can tell what a thought will do In bringing you hate or love— For thoughts are things, and their airy wings Are swifter than carrier doves. They follow the law of the universe— Each thing creates its kind, And they speed O’er the track to bring you back Whatever went out from your mind.” Yes, the greatest intangible force in the Universe is thought. A THOUGHT. Thinking about possible positive outcomes will create IDEAS (thoughts) that lead to positive results. Period.   ''And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.'' —Genesis 1:3 God allowed light to enter into being. Even for God to do so required a thought. ONE thought. The singularity. We, being created by Him, in His image (a representation) use the very same formula to manifest matter. We tran
