DALLAS, Nov. 12, 2013 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- The current dietary fiber concept products' sales amount exceeds CNY 28 billion in China, rising by 300% compared with 2006, according to the incomplete statistics of the dietary association. The major domestic enterprises that make the industrial production of water-soluble dietary fiber products on a large scale include Henan Tailijie Biotech Co., Ltd. in Mengzhou with the annual production capacity of about 30,000 tons, Shanghai Winway Dietary Fiber Development Co. Ltd. with the annual production capacity of about 20,000 tons and North China Pharmaceutical SINOWIN Co., Ltd. with the annual production capacity of about 10,000 tons as well as Xinyuan Biochemical Food Co., Ltd. in Jiaocuo with the annual production capacity of about 10,000 tons.

York Beach Things to Do
Nubble Lighthouse
Cape Neddick Lighthouse, better known as Nubble Light can be seen from many spots along the coast in York, Maine. The best view is from Sohier Park which offers an unobstructed view with perfect photo opportunities.You can sit on a bench and watch the waves crashing on the rocks, the seagulls coasting overhead and the occaisonal scuba diving group....more
Go to the lighthouse in the winter
It may be cold and windy ( bundle up good ) but lighthouses and rocky Mainecoasts look even more interesting when fresh snow has fallen over theseThis one was taken in February 1998more
Walk near the Nubble Lighthouse
York Beach is divided into two beaches - Short Sands at the north and Longs Sands to the south. The beaches are divided by a peninsula that houses the Nubble Lighthouse, which you can visit if you take a few minutes to drive or walk to it. I also suggest walking around the rocky shore just south of the lighthouse, which offers a nice trail through...more
York's Wild Kingdom
YORK'S WILD KINGDOM, located in York Beach, Maine has something to offer every member of the family. Each year more than 200,000 people come to visit the largest zoo and amusement park in the area. With exotic animals from around the world, YORK'S WILD KINGDOM is recognized for its rare species and knowledgeable curators.They offer a variety of...more
"Nubble" lighthouse
A prim and proper little lighthouse on tiny island a stone's throw from the mainland. It looks like the only way out there is a suspended basket on a cable. They lit it up for Christmas, and from Sohier Park (on the mainland side) it and the light-decorations all up and down the coast were beautiful.more
LONG SANDS Beach
Long Sands is the bigger of the two local beaches, hence the name. Long Sands has a designated surfing area. There are hotels and houses for rent across the street. Parking is more limited than it is at Short Sands. There is metered parking available along Route 1A along the beach. Restrooms are available at the Bathhouse. Lifeguards on duty end of...more
SHORT SANDS Beach
Short Sands Beach is next to the downtown area of York Beach. It is the smaller of the two local beaches, hence the name.There is plenty of parking, but be sure to bring lots of quarters. Cops on bicycles are quick to give tickets the second your time is up on the meter. There are a bathhouse, outdoor showers, a playground and basketball...more
York's Wild Kingdom
York's Wild Kingdom offers a variety of family rides, paddle boats, an 18 hole miniature golf course, a petting zoo, scenic picnic grounds and even a Haunted House. It's a bit of a tourist trap and certainly not a great amusement park. It's fun enough to bring the kids to.Not worth the price in my opinion.Current prices as of this writing...more
Fun-O-Rama arcade
Fun-O-Rama is an arcade in an archaic looking building. It's right on Short Sands Beach which makes it popular with families and local teens alike. There are both modern and older video games. The place gets noisy and hot. Even die-hard older video game fans can only stay for a short time. Children don't seem to mind the dumpy atmosphere though.more
This is a good zoo for people of all ages. There is a petting zoo where you can feed deer, goats and other animals. You can see monkeys, cougers, kangaroos and various other animals and birds. There are rides such as Go-Carts, bumper cars and paddle boats. Stay and watch the elephant show.more
Nubble Lighthouse with a full moon
If you're in this area when there's a full moon, you should go during the moonrise. It's a beautiful site, to see the full moon rise over the lighthouse while watching the waves crash on the rocks.more
Ghostly Tours

York Beach Restaurants
$23 Clam Strips Dinner
I am a seasonal camper at Eatons in York and I dine at many restaurant s in the area from May to October. I decided to try Fox's with my wife and a guest on Sat Oct 1st 2011. I ordered the $23 fried clam diiner and got three whole belly clams on top of a pile of clam strips. I asked to see the Mgr or Owner and was told she was not available but...more
Blues has it!
Joe and his staff made our sons wedding reception a success. Our guests were treated with friendly smiles, great food and a professional staff. Inn on the Blues is the coolest place on the Short Sands Beach that you could find. Joe helped solve our wedding time crunch and was more than accommodating when we wanted to bring some of our own goodies ....more
Only Good for a View
You go there for the view - unfortunately, we were seated in the back corner, with no view except through people's heads. Staff was nice, but the food was lacking. The lobster bisque was the consistency of pudding. Wouldn't go back - just because it's a landmark doesn't mean it's good. Nothing.more
Feeling Blue?? Eat Here
Jazzy Restaurant. Lots of pictures on the wall of Blues Players. Serves Lunch and Dinner. Sandwiches, Steak, Seafood, Etc.Take-Out for Breakfast.I ate here for dinner one night. I had the Steak Tips. I recommend it. It was excellent.When my plate was brought to me, there was this pretty flower on it. I didn't know it was edible until the waitress...more
Food Next To The Nubble
Very close to the Nubble Lighthouse. Small restaurant, also has a little gift shop. Really didn't have a favorite dish. I had lunch there, because I just got to York Beach. I had the Grilled Cheese Sandwich. It was good.more
York Beach's Excellent Food
Located right across from The Anchorage Inn I stayed at. Restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor seating which I chose everytime I ate there, was awesome. Right next to the beach, but does get chilly, so bring a light coat. They serve many different dishes. Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. Seafood, Burgers, Steak, Sandwiches, etc.Every...more
Great food, great view
The history on the menu says it began as a hotdog stand in the 60s; it's grown into a pretty, charming restaurant in the middle of a sweep of southern Maine coast. It looks like there's a patio (I was there in winter), but even in the dining room the view of the beach, lighthouse to rocky outcrops, is great. Baked artichoke hearts, lobster...more
Wicked Good Burgers
Wild Willy's makes great Burgers. It's not a fast food place, you will wait at least 20 minutes for a burger. During the summer, this place is packed so expect a wait. Seating is available both inside and outside. Wild west cowboy decor. The Rocky Burger with peppers and onions. YUMmore
Salt Water Taffy/Restauratnt/Icecream
The Goldenrod is a restaurant , an ice cream shop and a candy store. Most famous for the taffy machine in the window. A large group of people is always standing outside the window watching old fashioned machine churn out salt water taffy. The taffy is quite good, you can buy a box of it or even have them mail a box to your friends. There's an...more
York Beach Nightlife
Have a drink.
If you go downtown a bit, you'll find that there are lot of quaint little bars that overlook the ocean. It's nice to have a drink or two and then walk on the beach. They're also nice places to meet people who live in York year-round, or who are seasonal visitors.
York Beach Shopping
Native American
I'm not much of a shopper, it takes a unique store to make me a repeat customer. The Little Bull is the only store in York, Maine that I visit every time I'm in the area. I love the Native American goods, especially the jewelry!! The little bull sells a wide variety of items including handcrafted Native American jewelry, art work, tee- shirts,...more
Sterling Silver Jewelry
HUGE selection of jewelry, some decent and some crappy. Some of the sterling silver jewelry is sold by weight. In my experience the staff is not overly friendly, I'm sure it depends on who you are dealing with.more
One of the few places in the York Beach area that is open year round. Daily newspapers, magazines, cards, postcards,Books- new releases and local titles. He has a great selection of books on Maine history, lighthouses, folklore, haunted Maine.Soda, water, Lottery tickets, film, batteriesmore
York Beach Off The Beaten Path
FLO's HOTDOGS
This is a restaurant that serves hotdogs. I put it in this category because it's a short drive from the main York attractions and it's the most unique eating place I've ever been to. I hate hotdogs but my boyfriend likes them and this place always looks packed. So we went to Flo's. This place is delightfully ODD. It's only open 11-2, weird hours....more
Mount Agamenticus
Most tourists come to York for Beaches and shopping. Few know of Mount Agamenticus. I had been visiting York Beach for over 20 years before I discovered this place. Mount Agamenticus offers panoramic views and you can see as far as Portsmouth, NH to Kennebunkport, Maine as well as spectacular views of the White Mountains. The Mount Agamenticus...more

There is a basketball court on Short Sands Beach. It is always being used. I assume you just have to be lucky enough to find it empty, or wait your turn. At the very least, you young teenage girls can go check out the boys! Bring your own basketball.more
Short Sands Beach Fun
You can rent floats right on Short Sands Beach near Fun o Rama. You can also rent umbrellas and chairs "At Your Own Risk" (giggle),I didn't see any prices listed but most likely worth it if you don't have your own.more

Driving past York Beach
This really isn't an activity, but driving along to go to Nubble Lighthouse for like the third time, I looked to my right at the beach and saw the most amazing sand sculpture there. I pulled over to take a picture of it. It was really cool, but funny.more

The Dorset region
Dorset's beautiful and dramatic scenery has long made the county a favourite with writers, poets and film crews. Jurassic cliffs plunge alongside picturesque harbour towns and coastal resorts, providing an impressive backdrop for the many popular Dorset holiday destinations.
Weymouth town and Portland island are steeped in history. From Roman Galleys to Spanish Galleons the harbour and Island have seen more than their fair share of naval history and Royal patronage. While Henry VIII contented himself building forts to stave off foreign invasion, George III made Weymouth his summer holiday residence, attracting many wealthy ladies and gentlemen to the fashionable seaside town, and influencing its architecture leaving many magnificent buildings, statues and landmarks.
Blessed with beaches that range from the pebble rich 18 mile Chesil Beach tombolo, to Weymouth Beach's sandy shores, Weymouth and Portland have a great choice of places to visit and enjoy in both the hot summer months and the wild winter weeks. Add this to miles of stunning Jurassic coastline, a great range of family friendly attractions and a good choice of museums, and you have a surprisingly rich range of activities to keep you busy during your stay in the area.

Respond to Review of Bob's Kitchen
by PhilippeNicolitch
Review: We went for brunch last Sunday. The small restaurant was packed. We opted for a delicious vegan sandwich, a curry of the day and a smoothie. Everything was tasty and we really enjoyed our meal. The service is friendly and fast. We'll definitely go back. Perhaps a suggestion... Please use Agave syrup instead of honey in the dressing to make the Nori roll available to vegans. Thank you!

"Don't speak about it, be about it"
thats weird, when i tried, it wouldnt even work once. go figure. hopefully guino finds a way to make the code more robust, but i dont even know if its in his hands. try visiting the video or gps screen see if that freezes too. it shouldnt. only conclusion i can draw is that its something to do with the ilists.
I had LSX 3.0 installed and was working ok. I uninstalled 3.0, installed 3.2 and now I can't get any music to load. I load an album but the playlist will stay empty. I tried a different skin and still can't get any music to load. I open winamp locally and it plays the music I loaded. I updated road runner to 11/4/2007 install, re-installed winamp 5.13, and re-installed LSX 3.2.
Any thoughts why I can't get music to play in road runner, but it plays in winamp locally?
did u check your rr.ini and make sure its pointing to the correct folder for winamp and your music library?
just checked...all paths show correctly in rr.ini
here's a snap shot of my menu after I load an album (from library).
I also have album art that was working before I installed 3.2
I tried your trick of uninstalling 3.2...re-installing 3.0, and then installing 3.2 over 3.0. My problem has been solved also. There is something definitely missing in the install file of 3.2.
EDIT: I spoke too soon. Everything was working fine, but now I get the 438 error.
humm, cant say ive ever seen that error before. Have you guys tried re-registering your dlls?
For the guy who cant get audio to play, it sounds like u need to register the winamp.dll.
I dont know if the RR installer does any of this for you or not, i dont use it cuz it has bad defaults.
If people are finding installing 3.2 over 3.0 works better, ill have to take a look at the 3.2 installer and see if anything is not right. Installing 3.2 ontop of 3.0 is fine as its not like 2.x at all which had significantly different core parts.

i have joost invites, just hit me up for one.
and when i think about it more, i did remove the GDIplusswrapper.dll file from the install because i felt this is something that RR should handle itself. So if you uninstalled 3.0 via the uninstaller it probably unregistered the dll as well. Which is why i removed it to begin with, its not really my place to include that file. But was originally included in an effort to prevent having to do it manually which is a pain in *** in the car.
A fresh RR install should restore the dll.

Great value for the price Lisa from Arvada, CO on 12/02/2014 – Verified Buyer
I bought 2 of these for a project and the size is just great for the price. The cork is a little thin, so the tacks wouldn't go in all the way but it works for what its meant for. Cons: The frame feels a little cheap.

In contrast, the new database gives trait information for individual plant speciesnot just typesaround the globe. By using it, scientists now will be able to build more realistic models of terrestrial biodiversity.
Reich says the data and the relationships among traits in the database "will revolutionize the biological underpinnings of Earth systems models, and will help us improve our ability to predict the future carbon cycle and climate change, and suggest mitigation strategies. We, and others, are already incorporating these data into large-scale models of Earth's biological function. In fact, a new initiative co-funded by the U of M's Institute on the Environment and the Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry is aiming to do just that."

Throw Pillow
Good Artists Copy....by Budi Kwan
Throw Pillow made from 100% spun polyester poplin fabric, a stylish statement that will liven up any room. Individually cut and sewn by hand, each pillow features a double-sided print and is finished with a concealed zipper for ease of care. Sold with or without faux down pillow insert.
One of the most wrongly interpreted sentence.
Typo, typography, neon, light, quote, saying, electricity
Totally agreed, perhaps THE most wrongly interpreted one. You made an awesome print out of the subject, congrats.
brilliant interpretation! :)
great idea budi!
very nice :)
but it's: talent borrows, genius steals!
This is the first time I heard that version. Are we referring to the same Picasso?
ahah great!
Hahaha! Yes. All artists steal a bit here and there. I guess it's call being inspired by others :)
Very clever!
Yes, very clever indeed - and well executed.
Great design! I like the idea of it! Have a look of mine and see if you like it! http://society6.com/product/break-is-...

had an ultrasound at 15 weeks, 18, 22, and 30 weeks. At 15, and 18 the baby was said to be a girl. At 22 weeks, the baby was said to be a boy. At 30 weeks, the baby was a girl again, and the tech showed my why it looked like a girl, but gave me no picture. Every ultrasound the cord was between the legs. The ultrasound picture I have at 22 weeks doesn't look like my 2 boys I have at all. They were so obvious, no doubt in anyone's mind. This baby's doesn't look like a penis and balls what so ever. I don't know what to plan on. I would add the picture but don't know how....
boy or girl or umbilical cord???

Looks like a wee-wee to me. Here's my DS's from 2009. Looks the same. My technician just doesn't commit herself by saying it's definitely one sex or the other.
~I wouldn't trade the world for my family. Everyone deserves to be this blessed~
Super (:3=
Looks like a boy, for sure.
Married to a surfer (Tony), Mommy to a 3 year old boy (Michael), and Expecting a Baby Girl (Caroline or Hadleigh??) to come January 7th via RCS.
I had an US done at 18wks and my OB herself did it. She said that she was 75% sure that I was having a girl. Well a few days later I had another US with the specialist and the tech said I'm having a boy. I had her check for blood flow. His cord was also between his legs at the time of the US. When they do this you can tell the difference between what is cord and what is boy parts. The boy parts don't have the blue and red blood flow that the cord does. I would talk to your doctor and ask them for another US. They may or may not do it but if they do you would feel more comfy about it. Congrats on LO!
Mommy to Tyler 12/07/03 and Danny 8/11/08
Looks like a boy to me, but we never find out the gender of our babies when I am prego. We did get an ultrasound done where they measured the baby and measured the femur, so there is a picture of it's bottom and I cannot figure out if the gender is visible or not, let me know what you think?

The channel protein Pannexin1 keeps nerve cells flexible and thus the brain receptive for new knowledge. Together with colleagues from Canada and the U.S., researchers at the Ruhr-Universitt Bochum led by the junior professor Dr. Nora Prochnow from the Department of Molecular Brain Research describe these results in PLoS ONE. In the study, mice comprising no Pannexin1 in memory-related brain structures displayed symptoms similar to autism. Their nerve cells lacked synaptic plasticity, i.e. the ability to form new synaptic contacts or give up old contacts based on the level of usage.
Pannexins are abundant in the central nervous system of vertebrates
Pannexins traverse the cell membrane of vertebrate animals and form large pored channels. They are permeable for certain signalling molecules, such as the energy storage molecule ATP (adenosine triphosphate). The best known representative is Pannexin1, which occurs in abundance in the brain and spinal cord and among others in the hippocampus - a brain structure that is critical for long-term memory. Malfunctions of the pannexins play a role in the development of epilepsy and strokes.
No more scope in long-term potentiation
The research team studied mice in which the gene for Pannexin1 was lacking. Using cell recordings carried out on isolated brain sections, they analysed the long-term potentiation in the hippocampus. Long-term potentiation usually occurs when new memory content is built - the contacts between nerve cells are strengthened; they communicate more effectively with each other. In mice without Pannexin1, the long-term potentiation occurred earlier and was more prolonged than in mice with Pannexin1. "It looks at first glance like a gain in long-term memory", says Nora Prochnow. "But precise analysis shows that there was no more scope for upward development." Due to the lack of Pannexin1, the cell communication in general was increased to such an ext

Karnamrita.das's blog
Encouraging Words
(this blog is recorded on the full page: quick time player needed)
[This blog was originally published on 4-21-12, and has now been moved here] Everyone falls short, or doesn't progress as fast as they would like, on their spiritual journey. Can we ever think we love or serve Krishna sufficiently, when even great souls consider themselves deficient in devotion? Therefore, I always feel it is essential to portray my struggles as well as successes, so that devotees will be comfortable accepting and acknowledging where they fall short—at least within a select group, or a confidential friend. If we hide behind a veneer of external practice, trying to look good without admitting and sharing our struggles, we won't be able to hear how other devotees have dealt with similar problems. Some devotees think they are the only one with a particular challenge or sensual weakness, but if there was more honest sharing of experiences, devotees would see that while the exact details and degree of intensity vary, most of us have many of the same issues and struggles
To make spiritual progress we must be introspective enough to understand our strengths and weakness, as well as where we are now, and what the goal is (so we can remain fixed on it). There is a time to hear and chant about Krishna, and a time to be real about our material attachments and lack of spiritual standing. We only get to steadiness (nistha) and taste (ruchi) in bhakti through being conscious of, and retiring our anarthas, or unwanted ways of thinking and acting—and that is a long, winding road!
Be Who You Really Are!
(this blog is recorded on the full page: quick time player needed)
(Since I have a new audience, I thought I would continue to repost some of my favorite blogs [this one from 11-11-11] that are related to my current themes about personal growth, power, and a sense of mission. I am focused on these topics because many of us aren't using our full potential of allotted power, or energy given by Krishna, and thus are dissatisfied due to being diverted from making our special, natural contribution. To give you an example, my mission is to provide encouragement and inspiration to my readers or listeners to be the best persons they can in the pursuit of bhakti, or loving devotional thoughts and actions to please God, or Krishna. In this blog I point to the power of spiritual positive thinking while depending on Krishna. Real humility comes not artificially, but as a by-product of our spiritual development. With Krishna's help and our faithful thoughts and actions, all things are possible.) :
In the face of all our apparent problems, mistakes, and perceived failings and shortcomings, it is absolutely essential to remember our spiritual identity as a soul who is part of Krishna. This spiritual understanding is the solution to all problems and is the success of our life. You aren't that body—remember? Don't get so caught up in life as to deny this, or please consider this view if you have never thought of applying it practically. Bodily identification which is created and fostered by false ego—that most insidious and subtle element—encourages us to defend our misconceptions, and thus causes all our conflicts with others and unhappiness. Rather than looking inward, we think we need to add things on to our lives for fulfillment—of course, this is good for the economy!
Many of us suffer from low self-esteem, or a very poor opinion of ourselves, or we may display an inflated grandiose view of ourselves to cover this up (the dirty secret of our unworthiness). Some may not really have faith in the spiritual goal, and so remain with what they think is certain—however miserable or mediocre that may be. We may want to distract ourselves by remaining very busy so we don't have to spend too much time thinking of our wounded, hurt self—or we may always be blaming others for our problems.

Shri Nityananda as more Merciful than Shri Chaitanya
I originally published this blog on February 15, 2011. Since I don't have time this evening to prepare a blog about Lord Nityananda, I thought I would post it again now. Sunday, February 1st will be the observance of Lord Nityananda's holy appearance day. I was blessed in 2011 to be able to give class to the devotees on that day. I am sharing with you part of what I spoke about then. On the one hand, I appreciate the special mercy that comes to one who is able to speak to the devotees about Krishna and the philosophy of devotion, while on the other, I also find it very humbling to realize that I really don't know much about the philosophy. It is like an ocean, and I can only share a few drops. However, I speak for my own purification, with the prayer and intention to inspire and inform the devotees. Besides this, Krishna appreciates our taking risks in his service, assuring us in the Gita, that he carries what we lack and preserves what we have.
It is interesting how Spring is associated with Shri Chaitanya and his associations. First Shri Advaita Acharya, who prayed for the Lord's appearance, then Shri Nityananda Prabhu, the expansion of Lord Chaitanya and his most merciful aspect, and finally the crescendo, next month, on the full moon day, Lord Chaitanya's appearance. Although Shri Chaitanya is widely known as the "most munificent" avatar, freely giving Krishna prema (ecstatic love for Krishna), Shri Nityananda is considered even more merciful, since he gives prema to the most unqualified persons.
Finding Our Personal Mission and Potential Power—Part 2
One of my main points over many months of writing is that personal growth can be very favorable to our steadiness in spiritual practice. Such work is certainly not an end in itself, but can be helpful along with our sincerity of purpose and prayer in sorting out our life issues, and accessing our personal power for our service to Shri Guru and Gauranga (our spiritual teacher and Lord Chaitanya), and for the people in general. We can judge a thing by its results (phalena pariciyate) and if through such personal growth work one is more enthused in bhakti and in one's life, this is proof of its value.
All change begins with knowing we have a problem, sometimes the most difficult awareness. However, this still isn't sufficient to create change without working and praying to remove our shortcomings, and replacing them with better qualities or habits. Expert guidance in doing this work is indispensable. My understanding is that assisted introspection (as I have coined it) with experienced mentors will be helpful in rising to the stage of nistha (steadiness), an interim goal on the long road to prema (pure love of God).
The Gita teaches us that to not follow our nature is artificial and unsustainable. So our spiritual practices should be in sync, not just with our work (as important as that is), but with our sense of personal mission. Our power, or empowerment, in life comes from connecting our personal mission to our spiritual mission, making them one, if you will. Some teachers today say that just doing our personal mission, or being a balanced human being, is spiritual. While this is a crucial part of the equation, it is only part of it, and remains incomplete without addressing the needs of the soul.
Staying with Krishna for the Long Haul by Finding Our Personal Mission and Potential Power—Part 1
In my last blog I spoke of illness or difficulties that can be used to rekindle our spiritual practice. In this blog I am sharing a sample of what of what some friends and I have been discussing about regarding the difficulty in finding one's personal power and life mission. In a general sense all Gaudiya Vaishnavas, or devotees of Shri Krishna Chaitanya, share the same ultimate mission of prema, or loving service to Krishna and the spiritual practices to obtain it, or sadhana. However, the details concerning how one lives their life to obtain this ultimate mission, whether as a renunciate or married person with countless occupational possibilities, is as varied as are the types of people who come to Krishna. We could think of a personal unique mission, and a general spiritual one. They may look the same or seem very different. Many years ago I discovered I had issues with my personal power—or my lack of it. Reading the comments of devotees on this subject, I realized that I'm not alone, and so the topic of personal mission and personal power is essential to discuss for our long term standing as devotees.
Reflecting on how I grew up in a family situation where I had to turn off my personal power in order in to survive in a negative, violent atmosphere, it is easy to see that using my personal power is a major life lesson. My withdrawal of energy, or not being very conscious of it, continued to cast a shadow over my life when I came to Krishna. At first it helped me focus on my spiritual practices, but later I was practically forced to become a more balanced and integrated devotee. I have always been a late bloomer and so it isn't surprising to me that it is only now, toward the later years of my life, that I have found the gift in this personal deficiency. Of course, we all have our own time to blossom and become aware of what we need to do in our life. I'm endeavoring and praying to manifest my personal mission in the world—or my corner of it—as my offering for my gurus and Krishna, and to encourage others to do the same.
For the spiritually minded, life is really about managing our human energy in relationship to our spiritual path, and giving it shape according to our personal mission. Some intuitives call our personal mission our "sacred contract," and I have called it our "karmic mission."
It Was Only a Test
(this blog is recorded on the full page: quick time player is needed; works best with Firefox or Explorer; if you are using Google Chrome it will automatically play, so if you don't want to listen, mute your speakers.)
From my youth during the 60's I remember tests of the Emergency Broadcasting System on TV, where the regular programing was interrupted. A certain symbol was flashed on the screen with a jarring sound to wake you up and get your attention. After a few minutes, we were told that that this was only a test. If there had been a real emergency we would have been given appropriate instructions—like to go to bomb shelter or something. I thought about this idea of tests and being prepared—or not—for personal emergencies in relationship to my wife and my current illness of about a week now.
I have been thinking that this flu, or whatever respiratory infection it is, is only a test, not a nuclear attack, or earthquake—something that may cause death (which is like our lifetime's final exam—because our consciousness, attachments, and good or bad actions determine our next birth). If I am still alive, that means I have more time left to be Krishna conscious or to go deeper into my spiritual path. No, our illness likely isn't life threatening, though still plenty miserable. However, at some point in the near future, we will have to move on and out of our current bodily apartment—we are renters here, not owners. Had I died yesterday, save some special arrangement, I would be taking birth again still full of anarthas (unwanted mentalities or habits) and petty desires.
So my lack of spiritual standing is sobering, but mainly when confronted with the possibility of my death at this moment—which is one reason we are meant to keep death—or the temporariness of our body—before our eyes! Otherwise, hey, I could live another 20 or 30 years, so no worries Mate, still plenty of time for spiritual progress, mañana! Could I use this as a new lease on the remaining days of my life? That would be a great outcome of feeling crappy. Still, I have to choose that outcome, as we tend to forget, getting absorbed in our regular life, job, and family.
Is Happiness a Choice? Part 1 & 2
Part 1
In the midst of my sneezing and a hacking cough this morning I discovered a fantastically beautiful sunrise—breathtakingly inspiring for me—when I went downstairs to wake our home Deities. These days I am very taken by the natural world, the sunrise and sunset, phases of the moon, and my favorite for super variety, the ever-changing clouds. These daily occurrences are often missed in our hectic world, and thus it is no wonder that people are ever more depressed and lonely, feeling the cities are like a fast paced void. Behind Nature, and within it (and our hearts), is the Presence of the Almighty, patiently waiting for us to turn to him.
And when we are in the peace that nature can afford (if we can turn off our phone) we can feel closer to the Source of Everything, who for Gaudiya Vaishnavas, is the charming, extraordinarily gorgeous, irresistible flute player and cowherd, Shri Krishna. So I felt inspired and happy in the midst of a distressful condition—which gives a clue on how to be happy. This is the opening for today's topic on happiness.
My wife and I gave a class last week titled, "Is Happiness a Choice?" guided by the 14th chapter of the Bhagavad Gita on the three modes, or qualities, that govern the material world. Our answer to this question was a conditional yes, since happiness is really an attitude toward life, and not the result of our material adjustments or attainments. Another way of thinking of happiness is that it is not a "thing" but a by-product of a state of consciousness. Thus we might reframe the question to read, "What state of mind is required to choose to be happy?"
From a higher spiritual perspective, one of the qualities of the soul is happiness, so the closer we come to the spiritual platform, the more joy we will naturally feel, and the less we will be searching for happiness in the world of ephemeral things. The potentiality of material goodness (sattva) is that it is the portal, or gateway, to the soul, since it can bring wisdom and spiritual illumination. The downside of material goodness—and all material qualities or things have shortcomings—is that one can become attached to being a happy, virtuous, and wise person, and remain materially bound.
Discovering and Using our Gifts--the Fruit of Inner Work and Prayer
(this blog is recorded on the full page: quick time player is needed; works best with Firefox or Explorer; if you are using Google Chrome it will automatically play, so if you don't want to listen, mute your speakers.)
This blog is a continuation of the last two about undercurrents in groups and for each of us, personally. In a sense the fruit of dealing with our personal undercurrent, or unresolved life issues, is discovering and sharing our gifts, and the joy and fulfillment that ensue.
Many of us feel that being a soul in a physical embodiment is a strange combination. So strange in fact that some people, even without any spiritual awareness, have the experience of feeling they don't fit into the world, or are depressed for no apparent reason. A few of us have taken this angst as an impetus to search for the meaning of life beyond the status quo, finding the spiritual quest as the solution. I understand though, that being on the spiritual journey doesn't mean to deny the physical, or to just live our life waiting to transcend—as I did for many years as a single monastic (brahmacari). Awakening to our spiritual nature requires being fully present in the world and understanding our unique contribution to the family of the Earth while focusing on our Source through spiritual practice.
There are many dimensions to life. My feeling of emptiness and depression with the world led me to begin my spiritual quest. This search inspired me to regularly visit and live in the redwood forest, observe Nature, and read spiritual books. That led me to Krishna and I lived a spiritually focused life in various temples around the world for 12 years or so. That was good for me and gave me standing in, and a taste for, bhakti. Then I came to another dissatisfaction, or inner prompting, which led me to the journey of interfacing with the world and understanding that I was out of balance with my material self; I had to attend to what I would come to understand as my life lessons and "karmic mission."
Both our spiritual practice and understanding what we need to do in the world are essential. It is better to live in the world near devotees hankering for our spiritual ideal (Krishna Consciousness), then to live in a temple, hankering for material facilities and wondering what is wrong.
Our Personal Undercurrent—And What We Can Do About It!
(this blog is recorded on the full page: quick time player is needed; works best with Firefox or Explorer; if you are using Google Chrome it will automatically play, so if you don't want to listen, mute your speakers.)
As I was working on last week's blog about undercurrents in communities, I also thought about a related, important topic concerning our personal undercurrent, and how that affects our life, relationships, and whatever groups we are part of—such as family, school, occupation, and religious organization. I did bring up the subject, without naming it, when I spoke about how devotee's unresolved "life issues" or undiagnosed mental health problems can create difficulies in any group they are part of. However, that was about "them,"—you know, those "other" devotees that cause all the problems—and I wasn't specifically addressing you, that saintly person who never causes any conflicts. (Smile!) Many "you's" make up any group, and each person has an effect on the whole. We must soberly consider that we can't change others, but only ourselves—and that with great difficulty and endeavor. Never the less, changing for the better, within and without, is our most important work in life, and specifically for those on the path of loving devotional service to Krishna, or our conception of Divinity.
If we are in a leadership position, we can carefully and lovingly point out problem areas we observe in others, or if serious enough, recommend they seek professional help. Ultimately each person has to accept their shortcoming and see the value of working toward improvement. Taking personal responsibility for relationship conflicts is the first step, combined with a willingness to do the difficult work of introspection and self-examination. I have written before about our "shadow" side, or those disowned or repressed parts of our psyche, that we don't want to accept or deal with. "Undercurrent" is another way to label those problematic parts of ourselves and encourage everyone, in addition to spiritual practice, to be engaged in self-improvement and developing less reactionary ways of dealing with others. The principle to "Seek first to understand, then to be understood," applies if we are to minimize our problems with others, and be a positive force in our family and/or community!

The Negative Undercurrent in Communities—Acknowledging and Dealing with Relationship Conflicts
((this blog is recorded on the full page: quick time player is needed; works best with Firefox or Explorer; if you are using Google Chrome it will automatically play, so if you don't want to listen, mute your speakers.)When good communication and regular appreciation aren't shared there is bound to be an undercurrent of dissatisfaction, or worse, even feelings of anger and resentment. In a particular sanga, or group of devotees, the individuals have strengths and shortcomings, but if we become a harmonious team we help encourage one another in our personal growth and devotional goals; where one person falls short, another can provide that skill or need. An uplifting transcendent atmosphere based on good will, mutual respect, affection, and devotion, creates synergy and forward motion in spiritual progress, helping us deal with interpersonal conflicts which are bound to exist. In a sense the way we deal with difficulties or problems defines our success or failure, as that can really test our resolve to work together, or merely defend ourselves and criticize. By not ignoring challenges—which is often the easiest thing to do—but by working together to turn problems into service opportunities, we become stronger as individuals and as a group.
I have seen how open communication is complicated when one or more devotees have major unresolved life issues or undiagnosed mental health problems. At the same time even those with average mental health can have blind spots and emotional wounds that can be triggered by certain people. This fact brings up of the need, as I have frequently shared before, for trained devotee counselors who are also advanced devotees. We need competent mediators or counselors to help discover hidden or ignored conflicts and to resolve interpersonal problems—some way to assess the spiritual health of the group or community.

Asociación Arariwa is a large non-governmental organization that started offering microcredit in 1994 to improve the quality of life, skills and equity of the population in the rural Cusco region of Peru. Arariwa serves the southern Andean provinces of Peru, and is distinguished by its efforts to reach the very poor, who often live in isolated rural areas. Arariwa fosters village banking, supports savings accounts, promotes access to education, and empowers women entrepreneurs (who make up 78% of its borrowers).
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.
