The part that I like the most from Buddha’s teachings and from His Holiness, The Dalai Lama, is that the most powerful weapon is to not attack, to be able to have self-control.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Potential186 views0 answers0 votesMother Angelica said: “Every Christian who strives for holiness of life experiences dryness of soul. It is to most people a heart-rending experience. It is a paradox, for the soul becomes confused when it realizes the harder it strives the further away Jesus seems to be.” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Potential181 views0 answers0 votesJames E. Faust said: “Holiness is the strength of the soul. It comes by faith and through obedience to God’s laws and ordinances. God then purifies the heart by faith, and the heart becomes purged from that which is profane and unworthy. When holiness is achieved by conforming to God’s will, one knows intuitively that which is wrong and that which is right before the Lord. Holiness speaks when there is silence, encouraging that which is good or reproving that which is wrong.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Potential153 views0 answers0 votesShunya said: “If you want to help a guilt-ridden person, don’t act holy and pure around them. Everyone has a dark side, Be true, Be vulnerable. Be normal. Be human.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Potential140 views0 answers0 votesR.C. Sproul in his book, Choosing My Religion, wrote: “If you don’t delight in the fact that your Father is holy, holy, holy, then you are spiritually dead. You may be in a church. You may go to a Christian school. But if there is no delight in your soul for the holiness of God, you don’t know God. You don’t love God. You’re out of touch with God. You’re asleep to his character.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Potential156 views0 answers0 votesIs holiness an end in itself, or a means to an end? Can Creator tell us how Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol enhance and empower the pursuit of holiness, and most important, remove the obstacles to the practical attainment of holiness for both the individual and humanity itself?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Potential152 views0 answers0 votesOne of the most common everyday superstitions is the idea of “beginner’s luck.” Is there such a thing? There is an article by columnist Stephanie Pappas, on nbcnews.com, titled Thirteen Common (but silly) Superstitions to Savor. In it, Pappas writes about beginner’s luck: “Like many superstitions, a belief in beginner’s luck might arise because of confirmation bias. Confirmation bias is a psychological phenomenon in which people are more likely to remember events that fit their worldview. If you believe you’re going to win because you’re a beginner, you’re more likely to remember all the times you were right—and forget the times you ended up in last place.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs267 views0 answers0 votesAnother common superstition is “don’t walk under a ladder.” Clearly, there are some practical reasons for not doing this, but Pappas writes about other historical beliefs surrounding this caveat, “One theory holds that this superstition arises from a Christian belief in the Holy Trinity: Since a ladder leaning against a wall forms a triangle, ‘breaking’ that triangle was blasphemous. Then again, another popular theory is that a fear of walking under a ladder has to do with its resemblance to a medieval gallows.” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs236 views0 answers0 votes“A rabbit’s foot will bring you luck.” Pappas writes: “Talismans and amulets are a time-honored way of fending off evil; consider the crosses and garlic that are supposed to keep vampires at bay. Rabbit feet as talismans may hark back to early Celtic tribes in Britain. They may also arise from hoodoo, a form of African American folk magic and superstition that blends Native American, European and African tradition.” Can Creator tell us how this superstition came about, and if there is an actual reality to it?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs217 views0 answers0 votes“Bad luck comes in threes.” But then so does good luck as the “hat trick” in hockey celebrates. Pappas writes: “Remember confirmation bias? The belief that bad luck comes in threes is a classic example. A couple of things go wrong, and believers may start to look for the next bit of bad luck. A lost shoe might be forgotten one day, but seen as the third in a series of bad breaks the next.” What is Creator’s perspective on “bad luck comes in threes?”ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs262 views0 answers0 votesPappas writes: “According to folklore, breaking a mirror is a surefire way to doom yourself to seven years of bad luck. The superstition seems to arise from the belief that mirrors don’t just reflect your image; they hold bits of your soul. That belief led people in the old days of the American South to cover mirrors in a house when someone died, lest their soul be trapped inside.” What can Creator tell us about mirrors and the widespread belief in their hazards?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs247 views0 answers0 votes“Knock on wood.” Pappas writes, “This phrase is almost like a verbal talisman, designed to ward off bad luck after tempting fate: ‘Breaking that mirror didn’t bring me any trouble, knock on wood.’ The fixation on wood may come from old myths about good spirits in trees or from an association with the Christian cross. Similar phrases abound in multiple languages, suggesting that the desire not to upset a spiteful universe is very common.” What can Creator tell us about “knocking on wood?”ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs241 views0 answers0 votes“Cross your fingers.” Pappas writes: “Those wishing for luck will often cross one finger over another, a gesture that’s said to date back to early Christianity. The story goes that two people used to cross index fingers when making a wish, a symbol of support from a friend to the person making the wish. (Anything associated with the shape of the Christian cross was thought to be good luck.) The tradition gradually became something people could do on their own.” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs202 views0 answers0 votes“Throwing salt over your shoulder.” Salt is thought to create a spiritual barrier that evil spirits cannot cross, or find difficult to cross. Many magicians and sorcerers use it to create “magic circles” with the thought that if they stay inside, they will be protected from the very demons they conjure. What can Creator tell us about the spiritual properties of salt, if any?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs257 views0 answers0 votes“Don’t step on a crack!” This is from artsandculture.google.com, an article entitled 18 Superstitions from Around the World: “As with mirrors, cracks—in the earth, on a sidewalk, or almost anywhere—have long been seen as portals to the realm of the supernatural, for both good and ill. To step on those cracks might be to invite or release unwelcome spirits into the world ready to do one harm.” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs201 views0 answers0 votes
