Spiritual Experiences in Expression By: Y. Guide “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” (Mathew 11:28-30). This is one of the most popular Bible verses being read to all Christians who are burdened by injustice, heartaches, misery, and other things that afflict anyone’s mind, body, and soul. Without a doubt, it’s an assurance that God will always be there to ease a person’s pain by any means so that he or she would carry on and feel blessed while in service of the Lord as has been reflected in the life of Y. Guide. Guide suffered so much grief when she lost her son in an accident, her daughter in sickness, and her parents through natural causes. Her life would have been shattered beyond repair were it not for her undying faith in God. Her love of God, her family, and her neighbor and her unwavering belief for God’s promises now and hereafter inspired her to write Spiritual Experiences in Expression, a collection of poetry, essays, and selected Bible verses that she believes will help others who are anguished by present life’s troubles. She hopes it will aid them in kindling their spirits so that they may continue steadfast in their ministry while awaiting God’s kingdom that will take away sorrow forever.

It is precisely when we are struggling with doubt and confusion-or the persistent sense that there must be something more-that spiritual exploration begins. Considering the questions we often share when pursuing or choosing our beliefs allows us to deepen our understanding and empathy for others-even as we travel along disparate sacred paths. In ILLUMINATIONS, Mark L. Tompkins and Jennifer McMahon have compiled a profound and visually stunning collection of original artworks, photographs, short prose pieces, poems, and interview excerpts contributed by more than 180 artists and writers from 43 countries. Instead of attempting to provide answers or explain doctrine, ILLUMINATIONS gives voice to a worldwide collective of truth seekers, including Nobel Laureate Desmond Tutu, peace activist Fatima Gailani, bestselling authors Julia Cameron and Marianne Williamson, Reverend Tamara Siuda, and spiritual leader ShantiMayi. Representing a diverse range of cultures, traditions, and faiths, Illuminations is a provocative celebration of the personal spiritual experience.Reviews"This celebration of curiosity and questioning will appeal to those who are on a spiritual journey and find individual exploration to be more fulfilling than institutional religious experience." -Publishers Weekly"A refreshing counterpoint to the one-answer religious tract. . . The collection is beautiful visually and intellectually. The works are spiritual without being sentimental, no easy task. . . This book is a blessing."-Dallas Morning News and The Oklahoman "Mark Tompkins and Jennifer McMahon have undertaken an important task, mining the spiritual diversity that lies at the heart of humanity. Understanding each other'¬?s spiritual quest will lead to deeper healing for us all." -Marianne Williamson, author of A Return to Love and Everyday Grace"Illuminations merges art and spirituality into an elegant and moving collection of profound beauty. This book is a physical blessing to all who are fortunate enough to view it." -Arielle Ford, founding partner of The Spiritual Cinema Circle "Illuminations helps the reader move past understanding to empathy, which is the way to peace." -Jody Williams, 1997 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate "An important book, Illuminations allows all of us to deepen our connections with one another through the profound questions that live in every faith, every culture, and every heart. This is a book that affirms the inner dependence and interdependence of out time." -Lynne Twist, author of The Soul of Money "Sometimes religious systems expand life, introducing us to our spiritual natures; sometimes they diminish life, surrounding our fears with the mirage of certainty. In this book, Mark Tompkins and Jennifer McMahon open our spirituality in wondrous new ways, challenging and deepening all religious systems." -John Selby Spong, former Episcopal Bishop of Newark, New Jersey "Illuminations portrays an ecumenical inquiry in to the questions that lead the reader to uncover and remember the essences of living. Its symphony of stories and images lifts the spirit and invites conversations designed to end the separation of humanity from life and to reconnect us to that ineffable light that guides our journey." -Juanita Brown and David Isaacs, authors of The World Caf?© and founders of the World Caf?© Community Foundation

Spirituality is frequently avoided in the public school classroom in an attempt to prevent controversy. However, by ignoring, preventing, or discounting spirituality, educators can also inhibit children’s spiritual development. Based on qualitative research and interactions with both children and adults, Jennifer Mata argues that educators should be responsible for addressing children’s spirituality in the classroom and for re-introducing these topics into early childhood education. By surveying the existing literature on spirituality, Mata offers a working definition of spirituality as an essential characteristic of humanness, which helps connect individuals to themselves, others, and to the transcendent. The book portrays stories and descriptions of four kindergarten children in their classroom setting, exploring their different modes of expressing and experiencing spirituality. Finally, Spiritual Experiences in Early Childhood Education offers a review of pedagogical strategies to nurture spirituality, for both teachers to implement in the classroom and teacher educators to facilitate in teacher preparation programs.

Science and technology can provide solutions to physical or external aspects of our lives. With the introduction of AI in the form of language and vast information, it may seem like we have all the answers. However, the esoteric nature of life and existence is so profound that the esoteric questions of human life cannot be solved by mere semantics and definitions. Aspects of life like mind, religion, ego, yoga, love and meditation cannot be understood through intellect alone. Paradoxes can also be found everywhere because of the apparent opposition between the masculine energy of meditation and the feminine energy of love. Yet, within this purposeless existence, a meaningful life can also be found. Even in the face of complete contradiction or discord, it encompasses ultimate harmony. All these aspects can only be experienced through inner vision, which can be achieved by entering a new dimension or higher level of consciousness. When a person is completely immersed in meditation or love, merging with the entire energy flow of existence, his consciousness becomes one with the eternal, timeless void of eternity. At that point, everything becomes mysterious rather than the opposite. This book can be useful for those who want to transcend the outer superficial world and reach a new dimension of inner consciousness. It is best suited for those whose inner longing for real life has matured, who truly thirst to touch the mysteries of life. Despite all the experiences in life, there is something inside that is always dissatisfied, as if something is stuck inside the consciousness. Those who are searching for the real purpose of life must read this book. The title of this book may seem surprising to many people. Its purpose is to convey a deeper dimension of existence beyond mind and words. The language of any human mind is incapable of expressing the secret and mysterious message of the soul of existence. Yet as a writer I have tried to convey the voice of the soul of existence to the readers through words. This book represents a song or message of survival! This is manifested in a mysterious way! So I find this title appropriate! Despite knowing that big sales are not possible in any business world without advertising or marketing, I have not used any type of marketing or run any advertising to sell my book. In today's e-commerce world, it becomes mandatory to have reviews and ratings for any of your products if you want to grow your business tremendously. Fake reviews and ratings are also sold here. I stay away from all these things so if anyone tries to judge this book on all those criteria then I have to say sorry this book is not for you! I don't want to force sell my book to anyone and certainly not to someone whose consciousness is not developed to standard level, who is still under the influence of childish things of the business world like marketing, reviews, ratings and advertising. I just want this book to reach only deserving people! That's why I have stayed away from all these marketing matters. Anyway, the consciousness of the inner world of spirituality or any true artist has no special concern with the marketing world of materialistic business! The book begins with an outline of the deepest questions of human life. Then, there is a discussion on how incapable the human mind is of grasping the language of words and the meaning of sentences, syllables, and the depth of life. Thereafter, this book sheds light on the correct understanding of religion. Next, it explores the nature of the mind and how the mechanical system of the mind works. Once the scientific understanding of the mind is established, the book discusses how to cooperate with the mind to enter the upper dimension of consciousness through positive use of the mind. The concept of ego is then explored. The book examines how the ego manipulates the mind throughout one's life. After providing detailed information about the ego, the book presents ways to transform the ego into a state of ultimate surrender. Following that, the book explains the real purpose of life, which is the various aspects of love. It presents love stories, love poems, and other real facts about love. Additionally, it includes fictional dialogues to illustrate the divine love of Radha-Krishna. After covering these topics, the book discusses the difference between married life and real love, highlighting nature's tremendous sexual energy and providing insights into the positive use of sexual energy. The author then provides a comprehensive understanding of the path of spiritual meditation in contrast to love. It addresses the misconceptions about meditation in the world and explores the dimension of real meditation, which transcends the mind and leads to a void state beyond or above the mind. The term "yoga" is also associated with meditation today, but there is considerable confusion due to the mixing of wrong perceptions over time. The book attempts to provide a correct explanation of yoga. The book explores the dimensions and patterns of opposite energies in meditation and love. Although they may appear completely opposite, one path represents male energy through meditation, while the other path represents female energy through love. The book explains why the opposite of yin-yang is not truly opposite. Towards the end of the book, the meaning of life is examined in relation to an unpredictable and purposeless approach. The book offers insights into this aspect. When one becomes completely immersed in meditation or love, merging with the flow of the entire energy of existence, the laws of eternity undergo radical changes. They start acting in opposite and mysterious ways. The book describes this phenomenon and provides an example of Kabir's 'Ultbansi' statements. Moreover, the book contains many unknown and mysterious contradictions. It acknowledges that it is impossible to summarize all of them briefly.

Critical Spirituality written by Fiona Gardner and has been published by Routledge this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2017-03-02 with Body, Mind & Spirit categories.
Critical spirituality is a way of naming a desire to work with what is meaningful in the context of enabling a socially just, diverse and inclusive society. Critical spirituality means seeing people holistically, seeking to understand where they are coming from and what matters to them at a fundamental level; the level that is part of the everyday but also transcends it. What is important in critical spirituality is to combine a postmodern valuing of individual experience of spirituality with all its diversity with a critical perspective that asserts the importance of living harmoniously and respectfully at an individual, family and community level. Human service professionals currently wrestle with the gradually increasing expectation to work with spirituality often without feeling capable of undertaking such practice. Some work with people experiencing major trauma or change such as palliative care or rehabilitation where people ask meaning of life questions to which they feel ill equipped to respond. Others work with individuals, families and communities experiencing conflict about spiritual issues. Increased migration and movement of refugees increases contact with people for whom spirituality is central. Such experiences raise a number of issues for existing professionals as well as students: what do we mean by spiritual? How does this relate to religion? How do we work with the spiritual in ways that recognise and value difference, without accepting abusive relationships? What are the limits to spiritual tolerance, if any? This book explores these issues and addresses the dilemmas and challenges experienced by professionals. It also provides a number of practical tools such as possible questions to ask to assess for spiritual issues; to see spirituality as part of a web of relationships.

You will begin to see you are more than just a human being, but a multi-dimensional conscious being that has the power to completely change your life though the way you think. Throughout the book Spencer talks from the heart and the reader will feel that emotion coming through in his printed words.

Acknowledging and understanding spiritual formation is vital in contemporary education. This book explores the dynamic relationship between education and wellbeing. It examines the theory underpinning the practice of education in different societies where spirituality and care are believed to be at the heart of all educational experiences. The book recognizes that, regardless of the context or type of educational experience, education is a caring activity in which the development of the whole person - body, mind and spirit - is a central aim for teachers and educators in both formal and informal learning. The chapters in this handbook present and discuss topics that focus on spirituality as an integral part of human experience and, consequently, essential to educational programs which aim to address personal and communal identity, foster resilience, empathy and compassion, and promote meaning and connectedness.

Rewired begins with the claim that contemporary views of Christian spirituality, particularly in the American evangelical tradition, concentrate too exclusively on the interior and individual nature of spiritual experience. Paul Markham argues that a reexamination of the doctrine of religious conversion is needed within American evangelicalism and finds resources for such a model in the Wesleyan theological tradition and from philosophical and scientific insights into a "nonreductive physicalist" view of human nature. In considering "data" from theology and science, this book represents an integrated work in science and religion.

This book looks at how religious studies is framed and taught in India. It addresses the contradiction between the country’s vibrant religious life and the dearth of comparative and social scientific religious studies programs across Indian universities. The volume: • Studies the efforts by Rabindranath Tagore in Santiniketan and Mohan Malaviya in Varanasi, to introduce and institutionalize religious studies in India; • Discusses the notions of religion and spirituality and situates the failure of the ‘secularization thesis’ in the context of modern India; • Provides concrete suggestions on how to develop religious studies in relation to global citizenship and Indian cultural heritage with the hope of initiating a larger discussion. A unique contribution to the study of religion in society and education, the book will be indispensable to students and researchers of theology, history, philosophy, sociology, secularization, globalization, religious studies, education studies, and South Asian studies.
