When Life Stood in Silence

 

When Life Stood in Silence

When Life Stood in Silence is an autobiography in Poetry which depicts a series of life’s events and the deep emotions experienced over many years. These poems express pains from love lost and desired, death, adversities, and a yearning to emerge from deep emotional distress, trauma, and depression. It tells of the writer’s turmoil, when life halted, and the need for solitude. Moreover, it highlights her daunting inability to relate anything from the world outside the soul except her own misery which laments from far crevices of the heart. It speaks of hope, strength, faith, and a call for help from one’s destructive thoughts. It’s where life’s purpose seems to have no voice and no longer speak to a battered soul; where no one seems to hear loud outcries for survival.

Apotheosis Now

 

Apotheosis Now: 

Rabbit Hole to the Beyond

Many of us are starting to become tired of this game of life. We have been comparing and striving all our life. But no matter how much success we have achieved—we are still hollow and still have found nothing fulfilling. We don’t even know if happiness exists because it is no longer a living thing in our experience—it has become dead, as we only know it as a concept or memory. 

We have sought self-help advice, philosophies, and religious teachings to transform ourselves, but have not gotten anywhere. We have made some superficial improvements—like adopting a new mindset—but our core remains the same. We are still competitive, still fearful, and we get disturbed all the time. 

The problem with all attempts at self-improvement is that we do not address the fundamental problem, which is: who is the “you” that needs to be improved? We do not see that the one who is making the improvement is the same one who needs to be improved. The more we try to improve, the more conflict we introduce, within and without. The more knowledge that we stuff in our heads, the more we become trapped in a conceptual prison of reality. Inevitably, the more confused we get in life.

The book guides the reader out of their distorted beliefs to experience the reality beyond the mind. When the deeper intelligence is allowed to flourish without our mind's interference, then the game of life becomes effortless.

Fostering Energy

 

Fostering Energy: 

Cherish Your Energy for a Pleasant Spirit

Fostering Energy builds upon the idea that energy surrounds everything on Earth, from puppies to people to pizza. Interactions between these vessels create a transaction of energy, and the result can be either good or bad. Those carrying negativity in their self-worth, emotions, and thoughts also carry negative energy that taints everything they touch. 

If a simple interaction can breed negativity between both parties, it is crucial to control this energy. While it appears on the surface to be some complicated pseudo-science, taking responsibility for individual energy is no more complicated than personal betterment. The act of nurturing mental, physical, spiritual, and emotional health improves self-worth, and in reaction breeds positive energy.

Where you go, your energy follows. Every building, home, and space entered is impacted by personal energy, and these locations also leave their imprint. The importance of caring for energy is beyond understated, and Fostering Energy brings light to the significance of the subject matter.

The Jesus Nut
