The Miracle of Experience – Rupert Spira
Comment from Gerald McCreery2 weeks ago
understanding suffering is understanding what is wrong,. understanding what is wrong does not awaken what we want in life. this is based on the premise that we do not actually want to suffer but would rather be happy, studying suffering is like hitting yourself in the head in order to see how good it feels when it stops, awakening from a dream is being who you are and knowing that you are complete and awake and no longer can even entertain the idea of dreaming

Richard Dawkins: People find ISIS attractive despite beheadings
Published on Sep 26, 2014Religion and politics have always been an explosive mix, perhaps never more so than in the case of ISIS. But is the brutality that we’ve seen a result of violent ideology or a reflection of the darker side of human nature? Oksana is joined by Richard Dawkins, evolutionary biologist and author, to reason on these issues.

Ditch the Dairy: No Milk Mustache for the Quaker Oats Man! – Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine
Tell Quaker Oats to Ditch the Dairy!
Bad news for the Quaker Oats man: He’s getting a milk mustache this October. Quaker is launching a campaign urging you to douse oatmeal’s disease-fighting benefits with dairy milk, which is loaded with cholesterol, saturated fat, and sugar. MilkPEP, a milk promotion program funded by the dairy industry, is behind the promotion. But you can urge Quaker to save face—and its customers’ health—by ditching the dairy. Dairy is the top source of saturated fat in the American diet and exacerbates America’s No. 1 killer: heart disease. Milk also increases the risk of prostate, ovarian, and other cancers. And it causes cramping, diarrhea, and bloating for the 65 percent of the population who are lactose intolerant. Swapping whole milk for 2% won’t lessen the nutritional impact either. Skim and nonfat milks are not much better than the full fat variety. Most of their calories come from sugar—lactose—which is why they pack about as many calories as a typical soda. But Quaker Oats recipes can be easily made with plant-based milks that—unlike dairy products—are cholesterol-free and don’t contribute to heart disease, cancer, or digestive issues. Please take a minute to sign our petition below. Let Quaker Oats know that dairy-free is the healthiest way to be!

Top 10 Causes of Death in the USA–It May Surprise You!
According to the American Academy of Pain Medicine AAPM pain affects more Americans than diabetes, heart disease and cancer combined. Why are so many people in pain? We had planned to answer this question in today’s blog but as we began to do the research another story emerged. Most people are aware that the two big “killers” in the US are heart disease and cancer. And, it is true, both of these diseases cause a lot of suffering for many. But, most people aren’t aware of what is likely the 3rd leading cause of death.Would you believe it’s not strokes, auto accidents or even diabetes?
