The Past Life Regression workshop is scheduled for Sunday, August 1st, from 8:00 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. EST and registration is available at newyorkpastlife.com/online-workshop/.

For $175, up to ten participants can attend the group seminar online, and then get a private, one-on-one past life regression led by Dave Parke via Skype.

"Past Life Regression therapy enables a person to revisit a past life and clear up emotional energy that has become blocked, or work out issues of the past, that may be affecting their life in the present," explains David Parke, a hypnotherapist working in New York City. "Some hypnotists and lay people think of past life therapy as metaphorical which is perfectly fine. But approximately 30% of Americans and 60% of the world’s population believe in reincarnation and for them past life regression is a very real phenomenon. Belief in reincarnation isn’t required in order for the technique to have incredible therapeutic value."

(Prudent Press Agency) --- Jesus Preached Both!
I have often been accused of being a Calvinist but never really knew who he was. I have found that God has directed my life's path placing before me through true men of God, the seed of his word. And those men plowed my heart to make the good ground to receive his word, as my knowledge of God increased I found belief alone would not save me. I can't count the number of empty prayers I had been lead in by well meaning people that left me more confused because I did not have peace. neither will works save you,it is not of ourselves, but we are his workmanship. These are the things God works in us.

(Prudent Press Agency) --- To share with you the life of this electrifying Saint, we need to go back to the Tuscany of the 15th Century, puffed up by its ancient Etruscan history, and its involvement in the birth of Renaissance. As we walk through the narrow streets and glance at the age old walls that still surround Siena, we find ourselves in the 15th Century, our souls soaring.


This is where it all happened, where God would take the impossible and make it miraculous. Siena and the Sienese are a proud people - set aside by their antiquity and culture. Amongst all this grandeur and pride, how will we find one from this class, who will embrace the life of the Poverello! Our Story begins on the 8th of September, 1380 in the village of Massa Marittima, one of Siena's seventeen contrade, or districts, in the home of the governor, a descendant of the nobility of the Albizeschi. Into this opulent setting a new life will begin - Bernardino, future Friar, Missionary and Reformer. The joy of bringing a new life into the world will not last for this couple. Before their little boy would reach his seventh year on earth, his parents would go to the Father.

(Prudent Press Agency) --- Human nature is looking for happiness in different things and focuses on people liked and things, and become the enemy of the people and things have not helped. This impurity causes in mind. To clean the impurities in mind that it has caused, the man has used various types of meditation techniques of yoga for centuries.

(Prudent Press Agency) --- Salem Stained Glass President Al Priest announced today that his company will display an array of Kuhn Sacred Glass at the Stained Glass Association of America’s KC2010 Summer Conference June 28-30 in Kansas City, Missouri. The display will include several of Kuhn’s dazzling crystal crosses, similar in concept to the cross that Kuhn and Priest will present to Pope Benedict at the Vatican on September 29. The 32 1/2 x 19-inch work of art that the Pope will receive at a Papal Mass contains 15-thousand facets of clear optical grade crystal and symbolizes the Light of God. The center of the cross is tinged with crimson to represent the Sacred Heart of Christ, a symbol of devotion to Catholics and the Catholic Church.

“We are honored and humbled by this opportunity to present our work to the Holy Father,” Kuhn said on first learning of the forthcoming Papal audience, “because while to some the cross represents only death and darkness, this cross is all about light. It represents God’s light in this world.”

(Prudent Press Agency) --- I recently asked a Chabad rabbi if he believed in conscious creation - combining thought and feeling to manifest our dreams and desires - and if he found this principle within the teachings of Kabbalah. "Of course," he replied. "Despite all the conversations today about The Law of Attraction (like attracts like) and secret manifestation processes, Kabbalists have known these things for ages." Then he added, "But most of these other people teaching these principles leave out one really important aspect - the real secret." "The need for action?" I asked.

"Well, you do need to take action as well," he replied. "But what I?m talking about is the need to create for God. If you aren?t creating something that allows you to do God?s work, to work for God, to serve God, manifestation won?t happen." Ah...So much for that new car I wanted and the literary agent I wanted to help me sell my books to publishing houses. As we talked, however, I realized that what he was saying wasn?t so black and white. In fact, if that new car I wanted would help me get my children safely to the activities that help them develop into the people they are meant to be, then I am doing God?s work.

(Prudent Press Agency) --- How often have you been in the middle of a dilemma - unable to decide which direction to go in, which step to take next? How to choose? Every day we are confronted with decisions to make - some big, some small. How do you decide? You could make a list of pros and cons, you could ask your neighbor what you should do, or you can follow a Higher Power that has your best interests at heart. There is a perfect GPS for guiding you through your life and you have access to it at all times. It goes by many names - intuition, gut feeling, higher self. It can also be "externally" directed such as - God, Allah, guardian angel, or spirit guide. It really doesn't matter which if these you relate to and choose to you, the methods and techniques for hearing it are the same. Below are several techniques for gaining access to this important tool in your business toolbox.

Technique #1: Get quiet
Sit quietly in meditation or just silently a few minutes each day. Just taking the time to do this, can open up the sensitivity needed to "hear" the guidance you are seeking.

(Prudent Press Agency) --- Have you ever second-guessed yourself? Second-guessed God? Most of us have had a time when we've made a decision... began living the decision... and came to a point where we wondered if we made the right decision. In some ways, it may be natural. As finite beings with limited access to knowledge of the future, we make decisions (hopefully) based upon the best available information at hand. In so doing, we recognize our limitations and choose to live with a less than perfect knowledge of what may or may not happen.

Second-guessing may be natural and, at times, helpful. If it means we pause to clarify where we are - contrasted with where we hoped we would be - then it can be helpful. It may lead to a mid-course correction or lane change. In fact, it may be another way God guides and directs us. At other times, however, second-guessing may be a sign that we lack the faith or courage to follow through with our original decision. This often happens when the original decision is one that stretched us or one that we came to through conflict. It might be fear kicking in. Many folks find themselves paralyzed by second (and third and fourth) guesses. They start. They stop. They start again. They stop again. Others never second guess themselves and may find themselves headed in the wrong direction; or worse, at the wrong destination.
