I feel like the discussions on TV used to be a bit more high minded than they are today!

I haven't watched a lot of TV lately, but I'd be surprised to hear an interviewer sincerely ask whether it's contemptible for a man to fall on his knees before God.

"It's as difficult to get piety out of charity as it is to get reasonableness out of rationality." I think that needs to be someone's bio 😃

Indeed thought provoking. In my 75 years of life I have found charity, selflessness and love in many atheist. You really know what a person is not by what they say they are, but by what the DO everyday of their lives. Thank you Benjamin for a wonderful thing to listen to.

Could have saved myself a few years from the New Atheist v Christian debates watching this lol.

The irony of those debates was they had all already occurred (and in more robust form) decades and centuries before.

What is the last thought you will have before you die? That one thought decides your next birth. The Gita says it plainly. And Parashara hid it inside the most feared house in your chart, the 8th. Everyone calls it the house of death. Almost no one knows it is the house of your next life. Past life and future life, both live here. #astrology

Leadership is a transfer of belief. Positive leaders transfer their belief to their team and as a result they accomplish more than they ever thought possible. Remember, if you don’t have it, you can’t share it, so each day you need to feed yourself with positivity, optimism and belief in order to feed others. Ask yourself what could your team accomplish if they knew you believed in them? What could they accomplish if they believed in themselves? How do you share your belief with your team?

The problems are in the form of thoughts. Everything in the world, even your personal limited existence is a thought. Be still and know yourself.
