Audio Program Review:

Since the time of the ancient Greeks, Western medicine has looked at the
body from a materialistic perspective, and approached every problem with a
material-based solution such as drugs and surgery. But, through the insights
of Dr. Deepak Chopra, David Simon, and other pioneers of mind body
medicine, it’s become evident that if we want to change who we are, we
need to simply move in new directions, open our experiences to new
interpretations, and awaken our senses to the new perceptions that await us.


Training the Mind, Healing the Body, by Dr. Deepak Chopra, offers a uniquely comprehensive approach to all aspects of the mind body connection, including insights drawn from the Indian life science Ayurveda as well as from the latest research from the West. During this 24 session program, we become thoroughly familiar with the
philosophical foundations of mind body health care,we also learn how to:

* Integrate the healing traditions of the East with the latest practical discoveries of Western science

* Change the way we eat-or even when we eat-to create greater mental and physical energy

* Sleep well every night

* Identify what makes we uniquely different from anyone who has ever lived as well as what we share with all of humanity

* Exercise better, not harder

* Enter the silent spaces between our thoughts to create a rejuvenating sense of alertness

* Understand how the process of disease really works, and how we can break the progression that leads to illness

* Use our heart as well as our brain to make insightful choices and accurate life decisions

* Increase our personal efficiency by discovering the best times of day for mental and physical activities

* Discover the intimate connection between our physical body and our emotional and spiritual well-being.

This program is for serious students. It's got a lot of information packed in 12 audio CDs.
I listen to it as I drive to work and it is giving me so much new insights I wish I have know many years ago.

Through resonance we attract on the outside what we are on the inside, so a popular theory goes.


In the mirror theory, others serve as mirrors for our own self-analysis because they reflect some facet of our own being.


Whoever exists in our lives indirectly helps us acknowledge and integrate whatever aspect of ourselves they represent.


Therefore if we attract darkness, it is because we have darkness within.


If we fall under the abuse of a predator, it is because we have yet to discover and accept the predator within ourselves.



In his audio-book The Journey Beyond Enlightenment, author Stuart Wilde presents a host of guidelines, mechanisms and practical exercises for entering this mirror world and navigating your way through it. As you progress along this remarkable voyage, you will discover …

* How to experience the collective unconscious as a physical dimension you can actually travel to, inhabit and explore.

* The best time of day to view the mirror world.

* The bodily sensations that indicate you are engaged with the mirror world

* How striving for "enlightenment" in the conventional ways is actually keeping you further from it.

* Astonishing new biophysical research that supports the existence of the etheric field.

* The key to making yourself invulnerable to dark energies.


Thumbs up for Stuart Wilde's new audio project!!

The value of living in the present moment is easy to understand. But it can be very hard to actually make that happen.

This is especially true in the midst of the stress and chaos of our everyday life that dominates so much of our time and saps so much of our energy.

In The Power of Present Moment Awareness: How to Turn Ordinary Moments into Peak Experiences, author Shannon Duncan combines an engaging, accessible, down-to-earth exploration of the meaning and value of present moment awareness with his vast collection of simple, practical, immediately usable techniques, strategies, and exercises. The result is a program that makes one of the oldest, most fundamental, yet most elusive principles of spirituality readily accessible at last.

The Power of Present Moment Awareness shows us how to open ourselves to the lasting sense of peace and deep sense of gratitude for life that the present moment offers. It does this by helping us to see for ourself the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that stand in our way. This empowering understanding is the key to our freedom.

One of the most profound books (and audio) I've read in the past twenty years was Stuart Wilde's Infinite Self.

I was a fan of S. Wilde for two decades; today I'm not so sure about him, I just don't understand his ideas anymore,
but back in the Nineties, this book opened many doors for me.

Actually it was the studio recording of the same book that made a heck of a difference to me.
His tone of voice and his charisma were just right for the subject matter.

The book came later when I finally found it on a used bookstore.

Here is a short review:


Stuart Wilde provides us with 33 practical steps for reclaiming our inner power, which include learning to:

• Accept guidance from Spirit
• Become master of your own destiny
• Find personal freedom through acceptance and detachment
• Center our mind
• Purify ourself of ego-based limitations
• Dedicate our life to the Sacred Way
• Have an abundance of inspiration and creative expression
• Move forward with the energy of Quest

Stuart Wilde believes that spiritual power is everyone’s birthright, and we need only to free ourself to reclaim it.
And once we’ve experienced the Infinite Self, we’ll feel a deeper love and gratitude for our life in every way.

Stuart's message became part of my inner core. So much so that I kept looking for more articles from this visionary and to my disappointment, all the other works just didn't turn me on as much.

Any thoughts?


Updated notes:

Stuart Wilde has a new audio series called The Journey Beyond Enlightenment

I’ve heard good things about his new audio series but I have not yet purchased the audio book.

This studio recording talks about mechanisms and practical exercises for entering this mirror world and navigating your way through it.

Have you listened to it?

Back in the early nineties I used to have a JVC video camera. It performed well and gave me plenty of good memories. Like every thing else, it became old and I also lost interest on video recording.

A few months ago I got a rewards program letter from one of my credit cards and in it I noticed the perfect machine, a Panasonic Video Recorder that converted VHS to DVD.

“That’s it!” I said. For the first time in my life, I decided to redeem those bank points and get something that could actually be used.

When I finally got it, I run up to my attic and picked some of those old VHS family videos, placed one in the machine, placed a sample DVD-R on the other side and pressed the button. To my surprise it actually worked. All of the sudden, I was watching my young daughter’s first home coming on my computer screen.

Since that delightful and surprising day, I’ve been copying old VHS to DVD movies quite often and have regained my old collection of old videos.

Thumbs up for technology



Talking about video recording…

My little daughter’s black belt ceremony was approaching and I wanted to
record this important event on video.

I needed to buy a video camera in a hurry but, as a web designer,I
wanted something decent, something that would make a video recording
good enough to be watched for years to come.

Being a “techy” I started to explore the net, reading reviews, study all the
specs and, the more I learned about Video, the higher the price tag was
getting. My first budget was about $300. Then I realized that at that price
I would never get anything decent. By the time I decided on a video
camera I was going to spend over $1600.

“My God” I said, so much for the $300 budget! Then I remembered
my old JVC camera and searched for a JVC. There she was, miracle of
miracles, a video camera that doesn’t need a DVD or a memory card; it
works on a tinny hard drive just like my computer, exactly 30gb.

“That’s it,” I said. I’m not going crazy spending money I don’t have. The
specs looked great so I decided to get it from Amazon.

To my delight, and I’ve been telling this to all my friends, I found a real
gem. So far I recorded two family shows and the large capacity hard drive
is still holding them in the camera. I haven’t had a chance to copy them to
a separate DVD but I’m not worried about that, there is still plenty of space
in the camera itself. This little machine (literally little) keeps 30 GB of video
inside of it, meaning that I can go on an extended vacation and just keep recording.

If you don’t know much about computers, JVC has an optional attachment
that makes an automatic copying to a DVD a snap.

Oh by the way, I had to purchase a bigger supplemental battery for longer
recordings; this way I’m able to travel the whole day with a good battery.

To my surprise, the video camera is so small that I put it in my large pocket
while taking still pictures with my Nikon D50 Camera.

The purpose of good listening is to gain maximum understanding. Many people are tuned in only to the words of the other person or to the body language or the tone of voice and do not listen to the whole message. In understanding a message, each of these is important.

In order to hear the entire message, we should keep in mind the following points:

1. Thinking about the specific words the other person is saying.

2. Maintain an eye contact with the other party. We cannot read body language without looking at the speaker. Eye contact tells him that we are listening.

3. Engaging our mind to interpret the other person’s body language. We may intuitively understand it because much of what is sent nonverbally is subconsciously understood. If we feel our emotions are coloring our understanding, an awareness check is in order.

4. Watching facial expressions and how the other person uses his hands and arms. These will give us the most information on his nonverbal communication.

5. Listen to his tone of voice. Is it consistent with his words?

6. Interpreting the complete message when he have finished. Responding to what we think he is saying and then listening carefully to his response to us.

Until next time
