The optimal human schedule involves 6 days of work followed by 1 day of rest, as originally instituted by God.

Key verses discussed include Hebrews 3:6, 2 Timothy 2:1, 1 Timothy 6:8, Ephesians 5:20, 1 Thessalonians 5:18, James 1:22, and Romans 2:13.
On the Day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit descended upon the disciples as they were gathered together in prayer. They began speaking in other languages and praising God. When the crowd gathered, confused by what they were seeing and hearing, Peter stood up and preached to them about Jesus, telling them about his life, death, and resurrection. He told them this fulfillment of Joel's prophecy showed that Jesus was Lord and Messiah. Many in the crowd were convicted and asked what they must do to be saved, to which Peter told them to repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus to receive forgiveness of sins and the gift of the Holy Spirit.

This document examines the argument of Seventh-day Adventists for observing the Sabbath on Saturday rather than Sunday. It argues that Genesis does not specifically mention the Sabbath or day names, and Jesus fulfilled the Jewish traditions and laws. The early Church decided to honor Sunday as the "Lord's Day" in remembrance of Jesus' resurrection, establishing it as the primary day of worship in Christianity rather than the Jewish Sabbath tradition of Saturday.
The document discusses the beliefs and history of the Seventh-day Adventist church. It outlines their views that (1) the 10 Commandments were part of the moral law given at Sinai, separate from the ceremonial law, and are still binding today, and (2) the Sabbath should be observed on Saturday, the 7th day of the week. However, the conclusion argues that (1) there was only one law given at Sinai, (2) the 10 Commandments are no longer binding under the new covenant established by Jesus, and (3) Scripture indicates the Lord's Day is Sunday, not the Jewish Sabbath on Saturday.
The document discusses Genesis 2:1-3 and the Sabbath. It provides biblical references showing that in Genesis, God rested on the seventh day after completing creation.

It was given specifically to the Israelites in Exodus 16 and Exodus 20 reminds them of this commandment, not introducing a new one. While the Sabbath law required the death penalty for breaking it, Jesus fulfilled the law so Christians are no longer bound by it, but are under the law of Christ instead. The early church met on Sundays to commemorate Jesus' resurrection.
Advent is a four-week period before Christmas in the Catholic Church used to prepare for Christ's three comings: his birth, his presence through communion, and his second coming.

While Western churches no longer require fasting, Eastern churches continue the "Philip's Fast" from November 15 to Christmas to make the feast more joyful, but today Advent is often overshadowed by commercial Christmas shopping.

1) Jesus teaches that fasting should be done sincerely and privately before God, not for the purpose of being seen by others.

The document discusses the Jewish Sabbath and its observance on Saturday versus the Christian Sunday.

The document discusses whether the Sabbath is a holy day or a holiday. It argues that the Sabbath is God's holy seventh day of rest based on several pieces of biblical evidence: God rested on and blessed the seventh day in Genesis; the Sabbath was given as a sign between God and the Israelites in Exodus and Ezekiel; and Jesus and the disciples observed the Sabbath. While some Christians worship on Sunday, the document asserts that God declared the seventh day as his holy day, not a holiday, and Christians should worship and honor him on this day out of obedience. It concludes by asking whether the reader considers the Sabbath a holy day or a holiday.
The document discusses the Hebrew calendar and how it is based on lunar cycles. It explains that months can have either 29 or 30 days depending on when the new moon is observed.

THE FOUNDATIONS OF TRUE WORSHIP AND THE SABBATH - The Three Angels' Messages ...Sarpong Boateng Josiah
The first angel calls the world to Worship the Creator of The Heavens and Earth and all there is in it. There are many Christians worshiping in the world, but how do we know we are worshiping aright ? In fact how do we know we are worshiping the Creator God of the Universe. This presentation delves into the foundations of True Worship!
The document is a lesson about Jesus and the Sabbath. It discusses how Jesus upheld the Sabbath commandment during his life and ministry by performing healings on the Sabbath. His healings showed that the Sabbath is meant for acts of mercy and restoration. It also notes that after Jesus died and said "It is finished," he rested in the tomb on the Sabbath, just as God rested after creation, showing the continued validity of the Sabbath. The lesson argues that Jesus did not intend to abolish the seventh-day Sabbath as some claim, but rather reinforced its importance.
This document summarizes the biblical evidence that Jesus was not resurrected on Easter Sunday. It argues that a careful study of God's instructions about Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread shows that the holy days do not always fall on the seventh day Sabbath. It also examines the timing of Jesus' statements about being in the tomb for three days and three nights, concluding he could not have fulfilled this if he rose on Sunday. The document examines the sequence of events leading up to and following Jesus' crucifixion and argues he was actually resurrected on the Sabbath, not Sunday.
The Sabbath originated in Creation when God rested on the seventh day after completing His work. In the Law, the Sabbath was established as a day of rest where no work was to be done. However, the Israelites often failed to comply with keeping the Sabbath as commanded. The Sabbath was meant as a day to honor God and rest from one's own works, as God rested from His on the seventh day of Creation.

The document discusses the Fourth Commandment to remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy. It provides context that the first three commandments deal with relationships with God, while the remainder deal with relationships between people. The Fourth Commandment bridges these, as it was revolutionary in requiring a day of rest for all people, including servants, freeing them from constant labor. The basis for the commandment is that God rested on the seventh day after creating the world in six days. The Sabbath was meant to be a day of physical, psychological, emotional and spiritual renewal through rest and focusing on God, rather than secular pursuits or work.

The very deep experience of silence helps to expand from the 3 - dimensional awareness of the body to all pervasive awareness. The bed of silence becomes deeper and more expansive - an ocean of silence with waves on it merge into complete silence called Ajapa state of the mind. This silence is the source of Creativity, Power, Knowledge and Bliss.
PHASE V
From this deep ocean of silence in the heart region, let one OM emerge as an audible sound which diffuses into the entire body and the space all around. Enjoy the beautiful vibrations.

The Revelation Chapter 7 Working Copy.docxFred Gosnell
John witnesses the sealing of God's 144,000 witnesses, and he hears the crying out or shouting of an unnumbered multitude of those who have been saved during the great tribulation.
This is an intermission scene before opening the seventh seal. We have seen six seals opened revealing of the events that would shortly occur. The first 4 reveal what was to occur in the great tribulation during the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans in AD70.
The fifth seal reveals the question from those slain as to when the Lord would avenge their death. The sixth seal reveals the answer to them from the One on the throne and of the Lamb which would be the punishment of their persecutors and accomplices. John sees four messengers/angels holding back the four winds of the earth & keeping them from blowing on the earth, the sea or any tree. In this figurative language, these are not heavenly messengers/angels. These represent those who are trying to restrain the word of God everywhere. Their efforts are restrained by the messenger in verse 2, preventing them from holding back the 4 winds, the spread of the gospel of Christ by His messengers/angels. These 4 winds stand on the four corners of the earth, Rome’s worldwide influence to stop its spread. But the gospel will be preached in all the earth. See the study for the Bible passages that support this. John hears the commands given relating to the sealing of the servants of God and the figurative number representing them. John sees a great multitude standing before the throne of all nations and kindreds and people and tongues who are clothed with white robes. All the messengers/angels stood around the throne and the elders and the four beasts fell before the throne and worshipped God. One of the elders asks John what those were that were wearing white robes. John said he knew and the elder identifies them. The chapter ends with his explanation.

Introduction
Mantra Yoga is an exact science. "Mananat trayate iti mantrah- by the Manana (constant thinking or recollection) of which one is protected or is released from the round of births and deaths, is Mantra." That is called Mantra by the meditation (Manana) on which the Jiva or the individual soul attains freedom from sin, enjoyment in heaven and final liberation, and by the aid of which it attains in full the fourfold fruit (Chaturvarga), i.e., Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha. A Mantra is so called because it is achieved by the mental process.
taittreya upanishad - tradition of yoga and Upanishads, this concept of panch...Karuna Yoga Vidya Peetham
In his search towards reality or the unchanging fundamental unit of this universe, a scientist started with the external gross world of solid matter which is simple and easy to see, divide, and do experiments with.
This search led him through steps of understanding of this entire world of matter starting from elements, molecules, atoms, protons, neutrons and electrons;
He further understood that it is all packets of energy.
The atoms conglomerate together to form various chemicals; our body is therefore a permutation and combination of various chemicals. (Packets of energy in various configurations) When they join together they form molecules, cells, tissues organs, etc.
These follow certain well defined laws of nature and are controlled by nervous (electrical) and chemical (hormones) mechanisms to bring about movement and action in each and every cell.
Thus annamaya kosha is the physical frame which the grossest of the five Koshas.
Lucid Dreaming: Understanding the Risks and Benefits
The ability to control one's dreams or for the dreamer to be aware that he or she is dreaming. This process, called lucid dreaming, has some potential risks as well as many fascinating benefits. However, many people are hesitant to try it initially for fear of the potential dangers. This article aims to clarify these concerns by exploring both the risks and benefits of lucid dreaming.
The Benefits of Lucid Dreaming
Lucid dreaming allows a person to take control of their dream world, helping them overcome their fears and eliminate nightmares. This technique is particularly useful for mental health. By taking control of their dreams, individuals can face challenging scenarios in a controlled environment, which can help reduce anxiety and increase self-confidence.
Addressing Common Concerns
Physical Harm in Dreams Lucid dreaming is fundamentally safe. In a lucid dream, everything is a creation of your mind. Therefore, nothing in the dream can physically harm you. Despite the vividness and realness of the dream experience, it remains entirely within your mental landscape, posing no physical danger.
Mental Health Risks Concerns about developing PTSD or other mental illnesses from lucid dreaming are unfounded. As soon as you wake up, it's clear that the events experienced in the dream were not real. On the contrary, lucid dreaming is often seen as a therapeutic tool for conditions like PTSD, as it allows individuals to reframe and manage their thoughts.
Potential Risks of Lucid Dreaming
While generally safe, lucid dreaming does come with a few risks as well:
Mixing Dream Memories with Reality Long-term lucid dreamers might occasionally confuse dream memories with real ones, creating false memories. This issue is rare and preventable by maintaining a dream journal and avoiding lucid dreaming about real-life people or places too frequently.
Escapism Using lucid dreaming to escape reality can be problematic if it interferes with your daily life. While it is sometimes beneficial to escape and relieve the stress of reality, relying on lucid dreaming for happiness can hinder personal growth and productivity.
Feeling Tired After Lucid Dreaming Some people report feeling tired after lucid dreaming. This tiredness is not due to the dreams themselves but often results from not getting enough sleep or using techniques that disrupt sleep patterns. Taking breaks and ensuring adequate sleep can prevent this.
Mental Exhaustion Lucid dreaming can be mentally taxing if practiced excessively without breaks. It’s important to balance lucid dreaming with regular sleep to avoid mental fatigue.
Lucid dreaming is safe and beneficial if done with caution. It has many benefits, such as overcoming fear and improving mental health, and minimal risks. There are many resources and tutorials available for those interested in trying it.

Astronism, Cosmism and Cosmodeism: the space religions espousing the doctrine...Cometan
This lecture created by Brandon Taylorian (aka Cometan) specially for the CESNUR Conference held Bordeaux in June 2024 provides a brief introduction to the legacy of religious and philosophical thought that Astronism emerges from, namely the discourse on transcension started assuredly by the Cosmists in Russia in the mid-to-late nineteenth century and then carried on and developed by Mordecai Nessyahu in Cosmodeism in the twentieth century. Cometan also then provides some detail on his story in founding Astronism in the early twenty-first century from 2013 along with details on the central Astronist doctrine of transcension. Finally, the lecture concludes with some contributions made by space religions and space philosophy and their influences on various cultural facets in art, literature and film.
23. Exo 20:8
Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
Exo 20:9
Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy
work:
Exo 20:10
But the seventh day is the sabbath of the
LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any
work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter,
thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy
cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy
gates:
24. • Exo 20:11
• For in six days the LORD made heaven and
earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and
rested the seventh day: wherefore the
LORD blessed the sabbath day, and
hallowed it.
• The seventh day is declared to be a
memorial to the creative power of God,
which should be observed and kept holy
because God Himself has blessed and
hallowed the day.
