Born again

“If a man is not born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God”.
John 3:3

“Born again” in Northern Aramic” means to change one's thoughts and habits.

It's believed the Scriptures were conceived and inspired by the Holy Spirit to the Hebrew prophets who passed them on to the people in their days, using idioms, similes, parables and metaphors in order to convey their messages.

Holy Bible from the Ancient Eastern Text
George M. Lamsa's translation from the Aramic of the Peshitta.

The term Peshitta means straight, simple, sincere and true, that is, the original.

Beyond Belief

The rulers thought that it was by their own power and will that they were doing what they did, but the Holy Spirit in secret was accomplishing everything through them as it wished. TheGospelOfPhilip

Truth, which existed since the beginning, is sown everywhere. And many see it being sown, but few are they who see it being reaped. TheGospelOfPhilip

She packed my bags last night pre-flight
Zero hour nine a.m.
And I’m gonna be high as a kite by then
I miss the earth so much I miss my wife
It’s lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight

Some are afraid lest they rise naked. Because of this they wish to rise in the flesh, and they do not know that it is those who wear the flesh who are naked. It is those who are made into light by divesting themselves of the flesh who are not naked. TheGospelOfPhilip

And I think it’s gonna be a long long time
Till touch down brings me round again to find
I’m not the man they think I am at home
Oh no no no I’m a rocket man
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone

Wisdom is one thing, and death is another. Wisdom is simply wisdom, yet the wisdom of death is itself dead. This which is the wisdom with death, which is from the acquaintance with death is called the little wisdom. TheGospelOfPhilip

Faith receives, love gives. No one can receive without faith, no one can give without love. Therefore we believe so that indeed we shall receive, yet we give so that we shall love. Otherwise, if one is accustomed to give without love, he derives no benefit from having given.
TheGospelOfPhilip

Mars ain’t the kind of place to raise your kids
In fact it’s cold as hell
And there’s no one there to raise them if you did
And all this science I don’t understand
It’s just my job five days a week
A rocket man, a rocket man

Beyond Belief ~ The Secret Gospel of Thomas” by Elaine Pagels is excellent for understanding why certain texts were hidden and not included in the New Testament.

And I think it’s gonna be a long long time
Till touch down brings me round again to find
I’m not the man they think I am at home
Oh no no no ...

The Master Secret of the Ages

Atomic Energy? Interplanetary travel? Black Holes?
Nope!

The secret is the marvelous, miracle-working power found in your own subconscious mind.
The Power of Your Subconscious Mind” by Dr. Joseph Murphy (1961)

All YOUR experiences, events, conditions, and acts are produced by YOUR subconscious mind in reaction to YOUR thoughts.

Reclaim YOUR power.
Change YOUR mind.
Change YOUR life.

Move onward, upward and Godward.

Energy Vampires

This is a belief. No one can drain YOUR energy. Only YOU can only give away YOUR power to someone. And that power was/is always within. That would be the hidden knowledge Gnostic's alluded to. New Age alludes to something entirely different. Lucky Horseshoes, lucky Rabbits foot and anything external to YOU only have power if you let them (believe in them). And then they are only external symbols of an internal condition or belief. In the “Gospel of John” it was written “the Father within does all the work”.

Reclaim YOUR power,
change YOUR mind,
change YOUR life.

Regain Your Power

New Thought was about YOUR power within. I heard someone mention the New Thought churches had lost sight of that. The essence of New Thought was in the writings and finding your Truth. Whether you read Emerson, P.P. Quimby, Thomas Troward or others from Unity, Christian Science, Divine Science or Religious Science it's what resonates with you. Material from the late 1800's and early 1900's is now available on the internet. As Emmet Fox said seek the Presence of God in your own heart, and to use books, lectures, and churches only as a means to that one end .

Letting go.

Countless people have experienced new romantic relationships, increased business, and enjoyed better physical health and other amazing benefits, simply because they took time to "clean out the old" from their file drawers, garage shelves, clothes closets -- and heart and mind.
You can, too.

The Golden Rule

Universality of the Golden Rule (Baha'u'llah, Gleanings, LXVI:8 ) (Mahabharata 5:1517) (Udana-Varga 5.18) (Samyutta Nikaya v. 353) (Matthew 7:12) (Analects 15:23) (Mahabharata 5.1517) (Fourth Hadith of an-Nawawi 13) (Mahavira, Sutrakritamga) (Talmud, Shabbat 31a; Tobit 4:15) (Chief Seattle) (Udana-Varga 5.18) (Guru Granth Sahib, pg. 1299; Guru Arjan Devji 259) (Tai Shang kan Ying P'ien, 213 - 218) (Unitarian principle) (The Wiccan Rede) (Shayast-na-Shayast, 13.29) Some persons are born with an inner constitution which is harmonious and well balanced from the outset. Their impulses are consistent with one another, their will follows without trouble the guidance of their intellect, their passions are not excessive, and their lives are little haunted by regrets.
