what "spiritual love" truly is
"You will understand what love truly is when you stop thinking ofit as a feeling. Feeling is necessarily subject to variation,depending on who it is meant for, while genuine love is a stateof consciousness independent of beings and circumstances.To love is not to have a feeling for someone but to live in loveand do everything with love - speak, walk, eat, breathe, studywith love... Love arises when we have brought all our organs,cells and faculties into a state of harmony, so that they vibratein unison in light and peace. So love is a permanent state ofconsciousness. Those who have attained this state ofconsciousness feel their whole being imbued with divine fluids,and everything they do is a melody."

Step by Step Guide to Becoming Lebanese
Ladies and gentlemen, following this exclusive online guide is a sure-fine way to be mistaken for a Lebanese.
Driving
The driver's seat must be in an uncomfortable and impractical reclined position at all times. No more than one hands shall be on the wheel at any time. The other hand should be on the window frame. Alternatively it may be located on the gear-shift or your girlfriend's leg. Profuse use of horn is encouraged. Religious symbols are to be attached to dashboard at will. Shiny rims and tinted windows, accompanied by thinly veiled threats to fellow motorist, are commonplace.
Clothes
Shirts are never to be tucked in. A minimum of three buttons must be undone to reveal chest hair and optional gold medallion. Brand names, preferably fake, are to be exposed on every visible area of clothing. Jeans and shiny loafers are required to complete the look, along with a generous helping of Brylcream.
Technology
Ownership of mobile phones released more than two months ago are a big no-no. Be sure to keep your phone visible at all times. Keep it in your hand and place it on the table during dinner or coffee. Fiddle around with the menu at all times, to seem like you are always being pursued by serial text-messages.
Dining
The point of dining is not to eat. It is to see and be seen. Make no mistake. Talk loudly, be rude to staff. Never, ever, under any circumstances, thank your waiter. Throw evil looks at neighboring tables, whether you know them or not. Laugh audibly, just so everyone knows you're having more fun than them. Crack out a cheap cigar, even if you're 18, to project a clichéd 80s image of wealth.
Clubbing
You must pull up at the door in a shiny new car. Whether it's yours is inconsequential. Call bouncer 'habibe' a couple of times, and crack lame joke whilst tapping him on shoulder. Demonstrate rudeness to staff (see Dining). Act like you own the place. Order recklessly, and cry later. Throw evil looks at neighboring table (see Dining again). Shake fist in the air as substitute for actual dancing. Push that guy who dared look at your girlfriend. Drunk drive to the nearest Zaatar w Zeit, get in a fight with someone over a parking space. Order food.
Cinema
Again, the purpose of the cinema is not a love of film. It is to waste two hours of time, and annoy a great deal of people simultaneously.Have loudly whispered conversations on your phone during parts of the film integral to the plot. Throw popcorn at neighboring seats.Laugh in all the wrong places. Make inappropriate comments during tense scenes. Applaud good guys who punch a baddie.
Language
Arabic is not the official language of Lebanon, so forget what you've been told. You will need to master the bastard language that is frenglishabic. Use at least three languages in every conversation, introducing the ones you master the least only for greetings and partings (hola, ciao, …)
Manners
What-now?!
Politics
Chose one of a plethora of local, petty leaders. Adore them. Place their pictures on your car, balcony and other visible areas that may come under your ownership. Follow them blindly, regardless of how racist, irrational and frightening they all are.
Education
University is not a place to learn. It is a vast social club, where one must adorn one's entire wardrobe on a daily basis to attract potential mates. Class attendance is inversely proportional to the amount of sunshine on any particular day. Be just as flashy on campus as you would be in a club. Try to get your degree before failing every course four times.
Economics
Spend money you don't have, to buy things you don't need, to impress people you don't like
Ahla, bienvenue to our world habibe

Les prophéties de la voyante Baba Vanga
10 juin 2010
Baba Vanga, le Président noir et la Troisième Guerre Mondiale
Près de 15 ans après sa mort, la célèbre prophétesse bulgare Baba Vanga fait de nouveau parler d’elle !
Récemment, l’une de ses prophéties a été redécouverte et fait grand bruit : elle annonçait l’élection d’un président noir aux Etats-Unis suivi d’un conflit mondial qui ressemble beaucoup à ce que l’on pourrait appeler d’ici peu la ” 3ème guerre mondiale ” ! La célèbre voyante bulgare, Baba Vanga, née Vangelia Goushterova , est décédée à l’âge de 80 printemps en 1996 ; elle est désormais un véritable mythe dans les Balkans.
Baba Vanga, aveugle mais clairvoyante
Comme Tirésias – le vieux prophète révéré des Grecs qui révéla à Oedipe sa terrible destinée – Baba Vanga était aveugle, mais voyait au-delà des apparences et du temps :elle pouvait lire l’avenir de l’Homme…
Ses prophéties se sont pour la plupart confirmées dans le temps (80 % selon les données de l’Institut de Parapsychologie Bulgare, un taux de réussite inégalé !). Elle a exercé 55 années durant et ses consultations attiraient chaque année des milliers de personnes venues du monde entier.
En 1989, l’une de ses prophéties passa inaperçue, et pourtant… Elle avait prédit la tragédie du 11 septembre 2001 et décrivait les attentats-suicides contre les tours jumelles du World Trade Center de New-York !
Obama et la Troisième Guerre Mondiale
Aujourd’hui, plusieurs de ses prophéties affolent les spécialistes et sur les forums Internet la nouvelle se répand.
Selon Baba Vanga, la 3ème guerre mondiale débutera en Octobre 2010 pour s’achever quatre ans plus tard. Les principaux belligérants seront le Grand Ouest (pays nord-occidentaux) et le Croissant (plusieurs pays musulmans). Il s’agira d’une guerre sans précédent qui verra l’utilisation d’armes nucléaires, chimiques et qui détruira l’hémisphère Nord. L’ordre mondial sera totalement modifié. La Chine s’imposera comme la première puissance mondiale.
Cette terrible prophétie est à corréler à une autre : en 1979, elle avait prédit l’élection d’un président noir aux États-Unis au début du XXIème Siècle. Ce président noir a été élu, il s’agit évidemment d’Obama, Baba Vanga ne s’était pas trompée !
Elle ajouta que ce serait le dernier président des États-Unis, car ces derniers cesseraient d’exister peu de temps après son élection…
Si l’on couple ces deux prophéties, le trouble s’installe : L’une des deux s’est réalisée, et l’autre approche ! Comment ne pas prendre en compte cette menace qui approche ?
Si l’on considère le taux de 80% de réalisation des prophéties de Baba Vanga, il y a huit chances sur dix pour que la 3ème guerre mondiale commence vraiment dans quelques mois à peine…

Les prophéties de la voyante Bulgare Baba Vanga (1916-1996)
La célèbre voyante Bulgare, Baba Vanga (1916-1996) savait lire l’avenir, au-delà des apparences, au delà du visible…
Régulièrement publiées par la presse mondiale, ses prophéties se sont pour la plupart confirmées dans le temps. Selon les données de l’Institut de Parapsychologie Bulgare, 80 % des prophéties de Vanga se sont accomplies.
Pour avoir prédit la mort de Staline, elle passera 6 mois en prison. Bien avant les faits, elle annoncera la catastrophe de Tchernobyl en 1986, l’élection lors des présidentielles en Russie de Boris Yelstin en 1991, le destin tragique du sous marin nucléaire russe Koursk : « Koursk sera noyée par les eaux, le monde pleurera sa disparition. » A l’époque personne n’avait compris sa prédiction et fait le rapprochement avec le sous marin russe qui a sombré dans la mer de Barents avec ses 118 membres d’équipage, le 18 août 2000. La ville de Koursk se situe au beau milieu de la plaine Russe, très loin des mers et des fleuves !
En 1989, elle annonçait le drame du 11 septembre 2001 et décrivait les attentats-suicides contre les tours jumelles du World Trade Center de New-York, en ces termes : « A l’automne 2001, nos frères américains seront attaqués par des oiseaux d’aciers, le sang des innoncents sera versé… »

The Mighty Waters, by T. Freeman
th.jpg)
When the Mighty Waters cover your head, suffocating the soul and the flame that burnt inside...
When raging torrents of confusion drag you away in their current, ripping you from your hold on Life...
Look deeper. Beyond the soul.
For the soul itself, as well as the flame it holds, are rooted in a serene Godly World of Emanation, a world of quietness and sublime harmony.
But the turbulence of this world is rooted even beyond that, stemming from a World of Confusion, of light unbounded and untamed, before the orderly emanation of defined being, "--and the world was confused and void, with darkness over the face of the deep."
So you must dig deeper than those roots, to find the coals from which the flame arose and the flint rock from which the spark was struck. Deeper, until you reach the primordial essence of the soul, beyond Emanation, beyond Light -even beyond the unbounded light of pre-creation. Where there is nothing but the seminal thought which inspired all that is and was and will come to be.
And what was that thought? It was the thought of you here and now, in your struggle with this world, and the delicious taste of your victory.
And, since in that thought there is no past and future, there, in that thought, you have already won.
Now you must make it happen.

A good laugh, even if you’re NOT over 50!
sent to me by my friend serene anabtawi:
A good laugh, even if you’re NOT over 50!
When I bought my Blackberry I thought about the 30-year business I ran with 1800 employees, all without a cell phone that plays music, takes videos, pictures and communicates with Facebook and Twitter. I signed up under duress for Twitter and Facebook, so my seven kids, their spouses, 13 grandkids and 2 great grand kids could communicate with me in the modern way. I figured I could handle something as simple as Twitter with only 140 characters of space.
That was before one of my grandkids hooked me up for Tweeter, Tweetree, Twhirl, Twitterfon, Tweetie and Twittererific Tweetdeck, Twitpix and something that sends every message to my cell phone and every other program within the texting world.
My phone was beeping every three minutes with the details of everything except the bowel movements of the entire next generation. I am not ready to live like this. I keep my cell phone in the garage in my golf bag.
The kids bought me a GPS for my last birthday because they say I get lost every now and then going over to the grocery store or library. I keep that in a box under my tool bench with the Blue tooth [it's red] phone I am supposed to use when I drive. I wore it once and was standing in line at Barnes and Noble talking to my wife and everyone in the nearest 50 yards was glaring at me. I had to take my hearing aid out to use it, and I got a little loud.
I mean the GPS looked pretty smart on my dash board, but the lady inside that gadget was the most annoying, rudest person I had run into in a long time. Every 10 minutes, she would sarcastically say, "Re-calc-ul-ating." You would think that she could be nicer. It was like she could barely tolerate me. She would let go with a deep sigh and then tell me to make a U-turn at the next light. Then if I made a right turn instead…well, it was not a good relationship.
When I get really lost now, I call my wife and tell her the name of the cross streets and while she is starting to develop the same tone as Gypsy, the GPS lady, at least she loves me.
To be perfectly frank, I am still trying to learn how to use the cordless phones in our house. We have had them for 4 years, but I still haven't figured out how I can lose three phones all at once and have run around digging under chair cushions and checking bathrooms and the dirty laundry baskets when the phone rings.
The world is just getting too complex for me. They even mess me up every time I go to the grocery store. You would think they could settle on something themselves but this sudden "Paper or Plastic?" every time I check out just knocks me for a loop. I bought some of those cloth reusable bags to avoid looking confused, but I never remember to take them in with me.
Now I toss it back to them. When they ask me, "Paper or Plastic?" I just say, "Doesn't matter to me. I am bi-sacksual." Then it's their turn to stare at me with a blank look.

I was recently asked if I tweet. I answered, No, but I do toot a lot."

some favorite qutations
A still more glorious dawn awaits
Not a sunrise, but a galaxy rise
A morning filled with 400 billion suns
The rising of the milky way
C. Sagan
that which is like unto itself is drawn
"Notre Père qui êtes aux cieux
Restez-y
Et nous nous resterons sur la terre
qui est parfois si jolie "
For we are not fire, not water, not air, not rocks, not thoughts, not deeds, not fear, not love. We are Godly beings.
One eye on the horizon, one eye on the truth... and both eyes watching you
لا تخف عند سماع أي صوت وأنت نائم
فاللصوص لا يحدثون أي ضجة
“Après moi le déluge”
The height of arrogance
is the height of control...
of those who create God
in their own image.
This is the secret that Man holds over the angels: Only the human heart can be broken and whole at once.
When the spirit of Man is dark, when the flow gates of Above seem all but sealed, prepare for liberation.
patience is the mother of virtues..
"do not think about what you don't want,
always think about what you want"
lorsque deux verbes se suivent, le second se met a l'infinitif
“for a bribe doth blind the eyes of the wise, and pervert the words of the righteous.”
"Why has not man a microscopic eye?
For this plain reason:
Man is not a fly!"
"As it is above, so it is below
As it is below, so it is above."
"Men are not equal."
Objects in the mirror are closer than they appear to be.

The alchemical moment of transmutation is the moment in which you could kill an enemy but you choose to make him your friend. The alchemical moment of transmutation is the moment when you have an opportunity to slander, to kill, or to belittle a person but you do not. Any time your enemy involves you in his hatred and slander, you lose a precious moment of transmutation. nemies are agents of karma meeting with you for confrontation. You may change confrontation into compensation, into a moment in which you end the vicious circle of karmic occurrences.
Destruction of an enemy is the start of a new cycle of building a horrible karma. This is why, instead of having wars to end the problems of the world, one can use many powerful means to bring transmutation to the hearts of the people.
