Greetings to all. I have not done anything on this website for a while, as I have been busy with other things. I have recently applied as a reporter for The New York Times. I am waiting to hear from them. I got a personal letter recently from the NYTimes recruiter, so, that is a good indication.

Economic conditions are difficult now, food prices are very high, and strange things are going on in the world--if surviving is difficult for you now, that is understandable, but remember that there is a spirit world that surrounds us at all times, and it controls probably everything that goes on here. The material world began with the spirit world, there's plenty of evidence for that, so that spirit world controls it. In the past, people knew that. They knew that "gods" controlled everything in life, whether their crops would fail or not, that the well-being of their tribe depended on the favor and help of these "gods", so, much of their lives were focused on gaining the favor of these gods. These supernatural beings communicated with these people, told them what to do. Eventually this became a "religion" and people would be designated to work with these beings, and they became the "priests" of this religion. In modern times this wisdom was lost, which resulted in a materialist culture, the main idea of which is, there is no spirit world. The people begin acting, thus, without regard to anything spiritual, and eventually they end up soulless, soulless materialists, and they get more and more inhuman.

I used to think all that was true, but I don't anymore. We're programmed by this culture to be scientifically minded, rather than spiritually minded. We Westerners are at a disadvantage, thus, to people from, say, India, who, I'm sure, have far more knowledge of the spiritual than we do. They have a vast, ancient heritage in the spiritual and esoteric. They are in touch with "the other world", far more than we are.

I must get back to working on practical business, securing what I hope will be a career as a journalist. I will continue this conversation at another time.

Peace.
