Om Hindu sages say, "The universe is founded on two principles: 1. Rita: law, order or regularity. Making possible scientific and moral discovery; giving meaning. 2. Yajna: Renunciation. The most powerful action is sacrificing personal gain for the higher and holier. ------------------------------------------ The four Purusharthas (objectives) in Hinduism: Dharma (righteousness) Artha (prosperity) Kama (pleasure) Moksha (liberation) Dharma & Moksha are they that man ought

TAO TE CHING - Ch. 12 SEEK THE SPIRIT Too much light blinds the eye; too much noise deafens the ear; too many spices dull the taste; too much exercise weakens the body; the pursuit of great riches leads to ruin. The wise attend to the inner truth of things and are not fooled by outward appearances. They ignore matter and seek the spirit. - Lao Tzu ------------------------ Riches and fame tend to spoil; learn the ways of the the Spirit and be blessed. ----------------------

NEW COVENANT Now the first covenant had regulations for worship and also an earthly sanctuary. A tabernacle was set up. In its first room were the lampstand and the table with its consecrated bread; this was called the Holy Place. Behind the second curtain was a room called the Most Holy Place, which had the golden altar of incense and the gold-covered ark of the covenant. This ark contained the gold jar of manna, Aaron’s staff that had budded, and the stone tablets of the co

TREASURES IN HEAVEN “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal.

But if your eyes are unhealthy, your whole body

GOD MOST HIGH "However, The Most High does not live in houses made by human hands, as the prophet says: Heaven is My throne and earth is my footstool. What kind of house will you build for me? Says The Lord. Or where will My resting place be? Has not my hand made all these things?" - Acts 7: 48-50 Isha Upanishad - verse 1 The Lord is enshrined in the hearts of all. The Lord is the supreme Reality. Rejoice in him through renunciation. Covet nothing. All belongs to The Lord - S

SALVATION, LAW & SIN We know that the law is spiritual; but I am unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin. I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. For I know that good itself does not dwell in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.
