The Eye of the Storm

August 3, 2024

Finding True Freedom

June 29, 2024

One of the biggest suppressions in the world today is the freedom of the individual. The freedom of the individual has been so violated because the souls of the world have lost the ability to express their own inner freedom; if they had not, they would respect the freedom of...

Magical tools for self-empowerment

Soul under construction

June 9, 2023

A spiritual journey often begins just by looking for some relief to the angst of living. But often we find that what we learn is completely life-changing. We realise that a serious renovation, renewal, is needed, because we get an insight into how human beings should really be – beautiful,...

The seven faces of love

March 31, 2023

Love is not always what it seems. We do not love everyone in the same way and not everyone wants to be loved in the same way. There are many nuances of love and many different ways of describing it. It is worth taking time to understand the different types...
