How to sleep well - sleeping at twilight

1. Introduction 2. What happens when we sleep? 3. In summary 1. Introduction All of us would like to know how to sleep well so that we get up well rested. Among the many factors involved in how to sleep well, one is the time of going to sleep. Many people have the habit of taking a quick nap after returning from the office in the evening. In this article, we will explain what actually happens in the subtle dimension when we go to sleep at twilight so that we can make an educated decision on how to sleep well and when to sleep to achieve that.

Coupled with this, as our spiritual practice is also at its lowest during sleep, we are spiritually most vulnerable when we sleep. As a result when we sleep...

India must drive a hard bargain with China

By Colonel Anil Athale My last article Countries that wish to invade do not do so by pitching tents elicited furious and even derogatory comments from readers. As predicted, the ‘invasion’ seems to have ended, but the ‘tents’ episode has left several questions un-answered. It is clear that there are different Indian and Chinese interpretations about the Line of Actual Control in Aksai Chin area. It also seems that both sides sent out patrols in the area perceived as ‘theirs’. Due to the remoteness of the area, the rest of the country becomes aware about the incident only if the government chooses to let it know. It is intriguing as to why the Government of India chose to publicise this incident at this point in time. It has inflamed public opinion on the eve of the first visit of the new Chinese premier. Was some group trying to sabotage Indo-Chinese (likely) accord on border? It is also possible that China initiated the confrontation, created...

Muslims in Maharashtra start 300-km march for job quota

If Muslims consider themselves as the superior race on the earth then why they are demanding reservations ? If Muslims think that they are very much poor or backward, then they should ask its reasons to their leaders and should not ask for reservations ! - Editor   Nashik (Maharashtra) : People here trooped out Sunday on the streets to welcome and offer chilled soft drinks to over 1,000 Muslims who embarked on a 300-km Gandhian march to Mumbai demanding reservations in job, an official said.

Sleep paralysis causes – academic and spiritual research

In her book Sleep Paralysis: Night-mares, Nocebos and the Mind-Body Connection , Shelley Adler acknowledges that alternate explanations like SSRF’s are needed to understand sleep paralysis causes Most of us study science when we go to school. Charts, graphs, weights and measures are all used to help us understand and relate to the world around us. We learn that what is testable and verifiable by our five senses, mind and intellect is real and proper science. Even at higher levels of academia, the methods of research used have been far removed from Spirituality or spiritual science. However in recent years government and academic research facilities have begun exploring the impact of Spirituality and the spiritual dimension on the quality of life and their purpose in our life . One illustrative example of that is a publication by Rutgers University’s Studies in Medical Anthropology department (New Jersey, USA), Sleep Paralysis: Night-mares, Nocebos and the Mind-Bod...

Ghost tourism – the scary side of tourism

A lurid side of the city is gaining popularity Whenever friends or family from out of town come to visit, invariably we wind up in our scenic Old Town area. Aside from the quaint and beautiful feel to the vicinity, it also is the most historically significant part of town. Usually the importance of the area is attributed to the buildings and architecture. However, a more lurid side of the city is gaining popularity for the town, as well: ghost tourism. The principle behind ghost tourism is that people are taken on guided tours of buildings, such as the infamous Stanley Hotel, that are thought to be haunted. Such hauntings are advertised as being either of ghosts of former tenants or owners, or because it was the scene of a crime, such as a murder, where the victims are thought to be stuck. The reasons for embarking on such tours are many, from being an added curiosity to the morbid and terrifying such as staying in the place in the hopes of seeing, meeting, talki...
