Holiness, or sanctity, is in general the state of being holy (perceived by religious individuals as associated with the divine) or sacred (considered worthy of spiritual respect or devotion; or inspiring awe or reverence among believers in a given set of spiritual ideas). In other contexts, objects are often considered 'holy' or 'sacred' if used for spiritual purposes, such as the worship or service of gods. These terms can also be used in a non-spiritual or semi-spiritual context ("sacred truths" in a constitution). It is often ascribed to people ("a holy man" of religious occupation, "holy prophet" who is venerated by his followers), objects ("sacred artifact" that is worshipped), times ("holy days" of spiritual introspection, such as during winter holidays), or places ("sacred ground", "holy place"). The word "sacred" descends from the Latin sacrum, which referred to the gods or anything in their power, and to sacer, priest; sanctum, set apart. It was generally conceived spatially, as referring to the area around a temple. The English word holy dates back to at least the 11th Century with the Old English word halig, an adjective derived from hal meaning whole and used to mean 'uninjured, sound, healthy, entire, complete’. The Scottish 'hale' (health, happiness and wholeness.) is the most complete modern form of this Old English root. The modern word 'health' is also derived from the Old English hal. As “wholeness”, holiness may be taken to indicate a state of religious completeness or perfection. The word holy in its modern form appears in Wyclif's Bible of 1382. In non-specialist contexts, the term "holy" is used in a more general way, to refer to someone or something that is associated with a divine power, such as water used for Baptism.

2. Open Office review - My holy grail to free internet marketing resources
November 06, 2009
Open office is more or less the same as Microsoft office except for one major difference, Its free. I know, I couldn't believe it either.

4. The Christ Consciousness and the Twelve Holy Days of Christmas
November 06, 2009
It has been an honor for me to participate in the 12 Holy Days of Christmas, a very special time of year where the veil is lifted between the two worlds. These worlds are really one with angels, teachers, and the Christ all awaiting our desire to know the truth of their existence. The concept of the Christ has been hidden in dogma and man's law. I believe the Christ to be part of the divine Trinity: Father, Son or Daughter (the Christ), and Holy Spirit Mother. The Christ is the "love of God made manifest." The Christ is not a person but an "office" or "position" we all attain to. I didn't say ... (read more)

5. The Miseducation of Strength
November 06, 2009
Force. Bold. Firm. Tough. These are some of the adjectives that many may think of when it comes to strength. Whether referring to car engines, aluminum foil, or the traditional images of bodybuilders, to be considered strong is a trait that many glorify and use as a part of a larger and positive definition of whatever or whomever is the greatest, the most holy, a better person, or simply put-being good. Not like there is anything wrong with those things if that is what someone or the intention of a certain thing is desired to be.
On the other hand, what about other experiences that ... (read more)

6. My Meditation Journey with the 12 Holy Days of Christmas December 26-January 6
November 06, 2009
Thirty years ago I officially stepped on "the path," the sacred path. It is a journey that one takes perhaps in many lifetimes. Within three months I started my work with massage, I began my weekly metaphysics classes, and my beautiful sister Donna was diagnosed with terminal cancer. I started my study of the physical body as I entered the world of Spirit. It has been quite a journey...always something new to learn and experience.
My sister left this planet after suffering for one and one half years. I learned that there was a reason for her suffering. I didn't understand what it was, but... (read more)

7. Bethlehem - Is it the True Manger of Christ?
November 06, 2009
We arrived in the Holy Land after a ten hour bus ride and two weeks in Egypt. We left most of our Astara tour of 100 people. Twenty two of us stayed on to visit Jerusalem. I really didn't understand the politics of the region until I got there. We had a Palestinian tour guide and so we were to stay in "occupied territory." This territory was actually the Mount of Olives where Jesus ascended into heaven and where he suffered alone in the Garden of Gethsemane. Those 2000 year old olive trees still produce olives. Before I left on the trip my Israeli friend told me that we must be stayi... (read more)

11. Task of Shame by Rodney Howard Browne
November 05, 2009
I am convinced this awful show of judgment in Egypt, this battle between a righteous, holy God and the stubborn heart of Pharaoh, has at least 2 major truths to teach us. 2nd, it is an afraid thing to fall into the hands of the living God. You could be in the danger sector as you read these words. You have played fast and loose with your life, ignoring caution after caution. You have forced aside required truths for so long that your heart has become toughened.And the more you harden it, the harder it is to let God's light to at last break through. But there is a bright side to this dark ... (read more)

14. Silent Prayer: Part 2 - What Silent Prayer Is, and Isn't
November 03, 2009
When we think about prayer, what comes to mind is some kind of request or solicitation of God . Maybe we are ill and ask to get better, or ask forgiveness, or maybe a little help with the lottery. These are the kinds of prayers that we mostly engage in.
We might also repeat a mantra, for example, the "Our Father," or Hail Mary" as an act of devotion or contrition. Then there are the holy thoughts about God, heaven, the saints and Jesus as we sit quietly. Or, we might thank God for something good that has happened to us and ask for protection from the bad. These are all prayers of thanks, ... (read more)

18. The True Manger of Christmas
November 03, 2009
He is born of a virgin mother, the immaculate conception. He is a holy gift from God, chosen to have a divine feminine being as His mother, who eventually becomes the Queen of the Angels. Mother Mary, also known as Eve and Isis, shares Her brilliant light and love with the world to this day.
The drama of Jesus birth and death is symbolic of the path of a Christed soul. Edgar Cayce said that Jesus was Adam and Mary Eve. In their "fall" from grace in the Garden of Eden, was their promise to fulfill their sublime destiny as Christed souls.
These steps, from the immaculate birth to the f... (read more)

23. The Bible Foretells Tribulation and Judgment From God On Both Christians and Sinners Alike
November 02, 2009
Do you know that the Scripture testifies that in these last days that the spirit of judgment will be visited upon the earth, on both the saved, and on the unsaved? For the Holy Spirit's purging work is constantly at work among those that are His to bring them to maturity. He allows many and difficult tribulations in the life of a Believer to aide in this purging process, where faith is built and the works of the flesh are put aside. The Apostle Peter described this process in these words, “....for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin.” (1Peter 4:1b KJV) It is the Lord'... (read more)
