<p>I don&#8217;t see how spirituality can NOT be everybody&#8217;s business. That&#8217;s like saying that water is not a fishes&#8217; business. Without an aquatic environment, fish have no life.</p>
<p>Once in a few millennium there is a Great Fish that makes the transition from sea to land and begins breeding a new species. But that&#8217;s like the difference between angels and humans. We don&#8217;t exist in the same realm.</p>
<p>To them (angels), we appear weak, foolish, and gullible. It&#8217;s as if they’re watching through a one-way mirror that&#8217;s on their side. Cultivate the inner voice as you go about your daily business of involvement with the planet.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="left">The teachings of Jesus form the basis of the Christian religion.</p>
<p align="left">But many of his sayings and stories have been so well-known across the world for so long that rarely does the average person look closely at what Jesus was really trying to explain.</p>
<p align="left">Assumptions about the meanings of his words have often been accepted without question and simply passed down from generation to generation.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.allthingsthatmatterpress.com/webstore/jesus%20cover%20front.jpg" alt="Jesus Taught It Too" /></p>
<p align="left">In a unique and insightful book, author Philip Harris re-examines many of these famous, ancient quotes and suggests that Jesus actually had a precise understanding of The Law of Attraction.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.psitek.net/pages/PsiTek-jesus-taught-it-too-Contents.html"><strong>Read online</strong></a></p>
<p align="left">
<p align="left">And he argues that this knowledge about Universal Law is what really lies at the heart of the teachings of Jesus Christ.</p>
<p align="left">Despite <em>Jesus Taught It Too</em> being a top seller in the Law of Attraction category at Amazon.com, Mr Harris has donated his work to PsiTek to be freely published online for the benefit of readers across the world.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[The main program focus of the Dalai Lama Foundation is in the area of education, promoting and developing projects and curricula for ethics and peace. Our efforts in the curriculum area are guided by an advisory board of professional educators. Our initial offering was a Study Guide for the Dalai Lama's book Ethics for the New Millennium. This guide is available for downloading by anyone wishing to form a study circle to engage in their own exploration of values and ethics. That was followed by modules and curriculum for The Missing Peace: Artists Consider the Dalai Lama. You will find a wide range of resources for ethics and peace listed throughout our web site, including books and videos, resources for youth, and a knowledgebase with links to thousands of selected resources.]]></description>
