Shiva @innertalks Yes Steve, never forget the vital connection to our creator but live fully to enrich the society we are part of. There are some hitting others below the belt, especially some big leaders, with nary a thought for the well being of the rest. So we...

I couldn’t find an exact year but some decades ago, six specimens of a very rare eucalypt were found just south of Canberra, Australia. The trees are too far apart to reproduce naturally so four of the six have now been cloned....

I don’t have a photo of a haircut so I’m taking the opportunity to show one of the objects that was for sale at the market in Nungarin on the weekend. I’d be surprised if I haven’t written about this before, but I’ve searched...

Many people seem to have a hobby. I have several that I enjoy, although I have to admit that I don’t have the time to spend on mine that I used to, although I still cook daily. Cooking somehow soothes my soul. I love to read...

The old Jewish Rabbi once said that reading scripture creates a reservoir of love in you as much as does praying to God. The two are equal in importance when you live a good life, connected to God. Life does not...

Shiva @innertalks When we are shorn of our body, we are laid bare with only soul consciousness to show who we are. I feel then we have to prepare ourselves right now with the right approach. Our lives are richer when we live it to benefit others. It will have an...

The old Zen master had just died, and he left a deathbed new koan for his students to solve, on which the replacement mastership, of himself, depended. It was simple, and short: When a life is over, is it over, or just...

Shiva @innertalks Our journey should be bliss but a few manage to create hell while the majority is left to fight for survival. But the soul reasserts to show us the true path.

Shiva @innertalks The body and mind have to exist in a chaotic world. They have to survive/live by their wits. For the soul, it is a journey sublime. The best is yet to be for those who see beyond the tip of their nose here!

Yesterday i went to my friend's house for checking and all was fine. Then I saw the starfruit tree and knew some fruit were broken. Some were with big bite marks. I think something tasted the fruit at night. Who did it?

Life goes on as usual, with challenges galore—overcoming them gives us moments of relief. For a few, death is a reality that hangs over them constantly. The rest are left in peace if they think of the world as of now as the...

Shiva @flapiz I have seen all types. I take care not to offend my wife and tell her she can be like me when she is rude. It is "give and take" in a relationship but not one gives, and other takes all the time!

Shiva I used to tell how neighbors should behave with US and Canada, Australia and New Zealand as examples. It takes only one person to throw a spanner in the works!, sadly .
