“When the Sacred Masculine is combined with the sacred feminine inside each of us, we create the ‘sacred marriage’ of compassion and passion in ourselves.” – Matthew Fox

The age of armored masculinity is dead and dying at our feet. It’s a bloody tangle of weaponry and bloated egos glued together by myopic one-upmanship and congealed rage.

But buried in the rot and decay are the seeds of a new way of being a man in this world, a reawakening of our awareness of the sacred brought on by the reemergence of the divine feminine. No amount of armor can suppress it. No amount of weaponry can keep it at bay. The New Shiva is growing robust and powerful alongside the New Shakti. The world may not be ready for this New Man to emerge, but emerge he must, if we are to continue living on a planet which is demanding that a healthier more sustainable man appear.

What an experience is life in the world. What a diversion from the True Reality. What a contradiction the world is. How predisposed you are to contradictions, which are, ultimately, opposites. You have a mixed-up relationship with life in the world. You are rampantly pro and con. You judge the world mercilessly, and you are attached to the world just the same.
 
One day you were born to Earth. “What on Earth for?” you may wonder now. “Why am I here, and what am I meant to do while I am are here?”
 
Endless are the possibilities, and there seem to be no secure niches for you much of the time. There may be more than one actuality. I have said before that you don’t have to know what it is. You will get there. Some recognize. Some do not. Nevertheless, you will fulfill what you set out to do. You are the fulfiller of it.
 
That you are on Earth is greater than a mystery. You love a mystery, yet life may seem more like a dilemma that you find yourself in. You may feel that, in life, you are picked up by a big hand and placed in an arbitrary place with arbitrary people who have the say over you. You can’t wait to grow up and have some say over yourself, yet you still don’t feel much jurisdiction over yourself. You have to earn a living. You have to live somewhere. There are obstacles underfoot, and you crave so much more.

Video – Off the southern coast of Yonaguni, Japan, about 70 feet underwater lies a massive pyramid, often called the “Japanese Atlantis.” The site is dated to be at least 5,000 years old, and many experts believe that the site consists of remnants of an old city that existed above ground when the sea levels were much lower than they are today.

Some scientists think that the Yonaguni Pyramid is a natural structure resulting from tectonic activity, some believe it is man-made considering the various man and animal-like carvings, and some think that, similar to other monolithic sites, the pyramid was constructed by aliens. No one really knows the true history of this amazing structure. Check out this footage and share with us what you think.

Video - A time lapse video that shows the amazing skill of the monks from the Drepung Loseling monastery as they construct a Zambhala sand mandala. During the creation of this amazing piece of artwork, the monks pour millions of grains of sand from traditional metal funnels called chak-pur. A mandala that’s about five feet by five feet in size can take up to two weeks to complete.

“Yes there have been crashed craft, and bodies recovered. We are not alone in the universe, they have been coming here for a long time.” – Apollo 14 Astronaut, Air Force Captain Dr. Edgar Mitchell

Just a few short months ago, American astronomers testified to congress that extraterrestrial life certainly exists. There’s no question about it. Given the size of the universe, and how many stars and earth like planets there are, they must exist.

“The number of habitable worlds in our galaxy is certainly in the tens of billions, minimum, and we haven’t even talked about the moons. And the number of galaxies we can see, other than our own, is about 100 billion,” said Seth Shostak, Senior Astronomer at California’s SETI Institute

During the testimony, Steven J. Dick, an astronomer and NASA historian said:

We’re looking at all scenarios about finding life. If you find microbes, that’s one thing. If you find intelligence, it’s another. And if they communicate, it’s something else, and depending on what they say...

Did you know that sodas often contain so much sugar that they need to add an ingredient to suppress our body’s response to vomit? That fact alone made me stop drinking soda completely.

Sugar first became popular in the use in the late 1970’s since it was cheaper than cane sugar. Today, we consume on average a total of 27 teaspoons of sugar daily. The daily recommended dose is only 6 teaspoons for women and 9 teaspoons for men.
