Exorcism[1]
This document discusses the definition and stages of exorcism. It defines exorcism as compelling a demonic entity to leave its host through the power of God, not by battling the demon. It describes potential causes of demonic possession like involvement in occult practices. The document outlines biblical symptoms and the Catholic Church's criteria for possession. It discusses how Christians can potentially become possessed if their faith wavers. Finally, it explains that possession occurs in stages as a demon gains more influence over its host through their sins.
A brief history of the only spirit
Throughout most of the significant spiritual and religious traditions on Earth, can be
found references to a mysterious presence, usually defined as an energy or Spirit of some
sort, which is deeply involved in the spiritual awakening and evolution of both the
individual, and humanity at large. Though this presence-energy-spirit has gone by many
different labels, for the sake of simplicity we are referring to it in this essay as the “Only
Spirit”.
Religion, spirituality & science ppt
- Religion and spirituality are related but distinct concepts, with religion focusing on beliefs and rituals and spirituality focusing on the process of becoming attuned to unworldly affairs.
- New developments in physics have found common ground between religion and science in the concept of quantum consciousness or spirituality as the essence of both.
- Spirituality is a more personal experience than religion and focuses on love over fear, independence over dependence, discovering truth directly rather than through concepts like heaven and hell.
- While religion promotes specific beliefs and codes, spirituality is more abstract and focuses on spiritual practices like prayer and meditation over dogma.
Christianity ppt
- Christianity was synthesized at the Council of Nicea in 325 CE from Egyptian religion, 15 pagan gods, Alexandrian schools, Buddhism, Krishna cult, and the life of Apollonius of Tyana. Constantine established Christianity as the state religion.
- Jesus is believed to have spent his "lost years" from ages 13-29 in India, studying Buddhism, Jainism, and Vedas before returning to Jerusalem to preach. Some records and books mention Jesus living and dying in Kashmir.
- Views of Jesus fall into three categories - the biblical view of his divinity, the view that he was a prophet but not divine, and the view that the story is purely mythological and
THE QUEST FOR CHRISTIAN UNITY AND THE ECUMENICAL MOVEMENT(1).
This document provides an overview and comparison of several major world religions: Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, Baha'i Faith, and African traditional religions. It discusses their core beliefs and concepts of salvation. Hinduism believes in reincarnation and achieving moksha through good works. Buddhism teaches following the Eightfold Path to reach nirvana. Islam teaches total submission to Allah. Baha'i Faith believes all religions reveal God progressively. African religions see God as distant and emphasize community acceptance.
Towards a New Monastic Theology
This document provides an introduction to the concept of "new monasticism" and surveys elements that could inform a "new monastic theology." It discusses new monasticism as standing at the crossroads of contemplative and prophetic traditions. Key aspects of new monasticism highlighted include embracing the holiness of the secular, stressing the unity of being and doing, and living monasticism "in the world." The document suggests a new monastic theology should be contemplative, prophetic, interspiritual, and pragmatic. It provides examples of how figures like Martin Luther King Jr. and Howard Thurman embodied these qualities.
Spiritual Self
The document discusses the concepts of spiritual self, religion, and rituals. It defines spiritual self as one's moral sensibilities, conscience and beliefs. Religion is defined as the belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power. Rituals are specific observable modes of behavior that are part of religious belief systems. The document then provides overviews of the major world religions - Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, and Judaism - including their origins, sacred texts, symbols, and important practices.
38 religion and the greatest creator
The document discusses different religions and their classification. It argues that strictly speaking, only Christianity and Buddhism can be considered true religions as they have independent theological systems that answer fundamental questions about God/the creator. It predicts that in the future, all religions will eventually unify under a single "religion of the Greatest Creator" that reveres the creator without any fixed doctrines or hierarchical religious institutions. This will allow freedom of thought and equality among people.

What is the difference between Religion and Spirituality?The Center for Connection, Healing & Change
The document discusses the differences between religion and spirituality. Religion is described as more transactional and institutional, involving adherence to specific rules, doctrines, and moral codes set by governing bodies. It focuses on worship of historical or archetypal figures. Spirituality is described as more internal, focusing on practical application of teachings through personal experience and evolution. It emphasizes inclusivity, self-discovery, and seeing all beings as family. While religion can provide structure and community, spirituality allows for more freedom and diversity in one's faith journey and practice.JMS 2015: David Tacey, Spirituality and Religion in a Secular World

Bible Alive: Faith through Christian History
See how Christian understanding of faith develops over two thousand years, how heresies and struggles shape our theology on faith.
Bible Alive: "Faith in John"
1) For Johannine theology, faith is primarily about knowing Christ through accepting the witness of signs and words that point to him. Faith arises from encountering Jesus through these witnesses.
2) Faith is placed unconditionally in the words and efficacy of Jesus, and involves accepting the witness of figures like John the Baptist who testify to Jesus through accompanying signs.
3) This knowledge of Christ through faith ultimately leads to the vision of God, as eternal life is defined as knowing God through knowing Christ.
Pope Francis: amid the crisis of communal commitment
Pope Francis discusses the need for discernment in analyzing contemporary realities and challenges. He says we must distinguish movements that come from God's spirit versus the evil spirit. It is not the Pope's role to offer a complete analysis, but communities should carefully scrutinize signs of the times so that dehumanizing processes can be addressed before they become entrenched. The Pope calls for discernment with faith in God, who seeks only our good, and wisdom in approaching sociological and spiritual analyses of problems in order to heal the ills of the world.
19th March 2017 - Spirituality and the Christian
Christian spirituality involves having a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ by receiving salvation through faith. It is not about following religious rules and rituals but having one's life transformed through repentance from sin. True Christian spirituality is allowing the Holy Spirit to lead and control one's life, which produces characteristics like love, joy, peace and self-control. It requires an ongoing choice to submit to the Holy Spirit's ministry through regular communication with God and not grieving the Spirit through sin.
Life after death by Stephanos Chilides
This document discusses life after death according to Buddhist beliefs. It states that at the time of death, the vital energy that powered the physical body is released into the universe. This energy then propels the subtle body away from the earth and to different planes of existence, with the weight or karma of the subtle body determining which plane it goes to. So death is just the end of the physical body, while the energy and subtle body continue on, as energy cannot be destroyed.
Dreams
This dream book document is a collaborative work by students exploring the meanings of common dream symbols like teeth falling, fire, blood, babies, and others. For each symbol, multiple theories and interpretations are provided from various online dream dictionary sources.

A variety of views are presented for each symbol, acknowledging there are usually multiple ways to interpret dreams.
Andreas miracle
Andreas, a 6-year old boy from Cyprus, needed a bone marrow transplant to treat his leukemia. His parents prayed to Saint Marina of Andros to be with Andreas during his high-risk surgery in the US. During the surgery, an unknown woman convinced the head doctor to let her be present, claiming to be Andreas' personal doctor. The surgery was a success. After, the head doctor praised Andreas' lady doctor for her help, but his parents had not arranged for one. When they checked her registration, she had written "Marina of Andros," believing Saint Marina had answered their prayers.
Horoscopes Kyriaki Michael
A horoscope is an astrological chart representing the positions of celestial objects like the sun, moon, planets, and stars at a specific point in time, such as someone's birth. It is used for divination purposes to make interpretations about events related to that moment in time, though scientific studies have not supported their accuracy. In common usage, horoscopes often refer to astrological interpretations based on a person's sun sign or the calendar significance of an event according to their birth date in Chinese astrology. The horoscope serves as a map of the heavens over a location at a moment in time, showing the positions of actual and calculated celestial factors along with their angular relationships, which are interpreted differently across astrological traditions.
Life after death
This document discusses different perspectives on life after death. It mentions that death is the permanent cessation of biological functions but some believe consciousness continues. It explores concepts of the afterlife in various religions like purgatory in Christianity and Hades in Greek mythology. The document also discusses how death is connected to the physical human condition and that life after death remains a mystery as evidence has never been definitively proven. Christians believe the afterlife depends on one's earthly life and they can be happy in Paradise or condemned to Hell.
The Rzedowa Rock
Between the villages of Bzów and Karlin in Poland lies the Rzędowa Rock, which has a small cave tunnel around 40 meters long. Archaeological research has found material from the Hallstatt period, Lusatian culture, and Middle Ages in the area around the rock. Excavations uncovered the remains of cottage foundations and ceramic artifacts. Local legends say the tunnel was once home to a devil named Licho who misled people on their way to work, but placing a cross on the rock caused the evil spirits to disappear. Another story links the tunnel to the nearby Ogrodzieniec Castle. The rock area provides an opportunity for rock climbing.
The legend of the Wawel Dragon
A dragon was ravaging the countryside near Wawel Hill by eating cattle. Many brave knights tried and failed to slay the dragon. The king offered his daughter's hand in marriage and his kingdom to whoever killed the dragon. A shoemaker named Krak devised a plan to stuff a ram with sulfur, which the dragon ate and exploded from the fire in its throat when drinking from the river. Krak married the princess and became the new king, with the town being named after him, Cracow.
Wawel dragon
A dragon was living under Wawel Hill in Krakow and stealing young girls and farm animals. Prince Krak offered half his kingdom and his daughter's hand in marriage to whoever could kill the dragon. Many soldiers tried but failed. Finally, a shoemaker filled a sheep's skin with sulphur and left it near the dragon's cave. The dragon ate the sheep and its stomach started burning from the sulphur. It ran to the river to drink but continued drinking until it exploded. The shoemaker received the prize from the prince and married his daughter, saving the city from the dragon.
Ancient civilisations
Ancient history refers to the period from the first civilizations until around the 5th century AD in the Middle East, Europe, and North Africa. Mesopotamia was one of the earliest civilizations located between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers in modern-day Iraq, where the Sumerians established cities like Babylon around 3000 BC. Egypt also developed one of the earliest civilizations starting around 3000 BC with stable kingdoms ruled by pharaohs. India's earliest civilizations originated along the Indus River valley in cities like Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro in approximately 2500 BC. China is considered the second oldest cradle of civilization after Mesopotamia, with early mentions dating to
Eleni Georgiou numerology
Numerology is the study of the symbolism of numbers and how they can be used to understand personality and predict events. It has its roots in ancient Egypt and Babylonia over 10,000 years ago. A numerological analysis reduces numbers in a name and birthdate down to core numbers between 1-9 or master numbers 11 and 22, which each symbolize different personality traits. Numerology can predict general types of future events based on these numbers, though specifics depend on individual choices.
Pygmalion
Pygmalion was a sculptor from Greek mythology who fell in love with a statue he had carved named Galateia. On Aphrodite's festival day, he made offerings and wished to find a woman like his statue. When he returned home, he found that Galateia had come to life. Aphrodite had granted his wish, and they married and spent their lives in love. Some say they had children together.
Islam
Islam is a monotheistic religion articulated by the Qur'an. Muslims believe in one God and that the purpose of existence is to love and serve God. The word "Islam" means "submission to God" in Arabic. The religion was founded by the prophet Muhammad in the 7th century to unite the Arab people, but it spread worldwide with Arabs originally making up 15-20% of adherents. The five main principles of Islam are the shahadah, prayer, fasting, charity, and the hajj pilgrimage.
Polish Superstitions

Astrology Constantinos Patsalis
Astrology is the study of the movements and positions of celestial bodies like stars and planets and their purported influence on human affairs and the natural world. It originated in ancient Babylon in the 2nd millennium BC and later spread to other parts of Asia, India, China, Europe, Greece and the Middle East. While astrology references the stars and planets, it is not considered a science as it is not based on experimentation or observation.
Psychokinesis
Psychokinesis refers to the direct influence of the mind on a physical system that cannot be explained by known physical forces. Examples include moving or distorting objects and influencing random number generators. The study of purported psychokinetic phenomena is part of parapsychology, although research has shifted focus from large-scale effects to attempts to influence dice and random number generators. Parapsychologists distinguish between macro-PK (large effects visible to the naked eye) and micro-PK (minor effects only visible through statistical analysis). Current research investigates both types of PK, particularly microscopic effects studied using random event generators. However, anomalous perturbation experiments and research into psychokinesis are generally not considered mainstream science due to lack of reliable proof.

This document summarizes several natural sources of energy: wind turbines convert kinetic energy from wind into electricity, solar panels convert sunlight into electricity or heat water, hydropower harnesses the energy of falling or running water, biomass refers to biological materials that can be burned directly or processed into biofuels, and electric vehicles use electrical energy stored in batteries to power electric motors for propulsion.
Natural disasters Group6
This document discusses various natural disasters connected to water. It defines floods as an overflow of water that submerges land, usually due to excessive water in a river, lake, or from heavy rainfall. Drought is defined as an extended period without sufficient water supply. Earthquakes result from a sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust that causes seismic waves. Volcanic eruptions occur when a volcano actively releases lava and gases. Tsunamis are large ocean waves caused by earthquakes, landslides, or volcanic eruptions displacing water. Hurricanes are large storm systems that form over warm ocean waters and bring strong winds and rain.
Natural disasters Group 6
This document defines and describes different types of natural disasters including floods, tsunamis, storms, limnic eruptions, and cyclones. Floods are defined as overflow of water that submerges dry land. Tsunamis resemble rapidly rising tides rather than waves and arrive in wave trains. A limnic eruption occurs when carbon dioxide erupts from deep lake water, endangering wildlife. Cyclones are storm systems with low pressure and thunderstorms that produce strong winds and rain by feeding on heat from rising moist air.
Natural disasters Group5
Natural disasters connected with water can include floods, limnic eruptions, tsunamis, and storms. A flood occurs when an overflow of water submerges land, usually caused by heavy rain or melting snow that causes a river or lake to overflow. A limnic eruption happens when gases like carbon dioxide erupt from deep lake water, endangering wildlife and humans. Tsunamis are large sea waves caused by earthquakes or landslides under the sea. Storms are disturbed weather conditions involving strong winds, rain, snow, or other precipitation.
Natural disasters Group4
Natural disasters connected with water can include tsunamis, storms, and floods. A tsunami is a series of waves caused by the displacement of a large volume of water, often triggered by earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or landslides under the sea. Storms generally lead to severe weather like heavy rain, flooding, lightning, or strong winds that can damage property. A flood is an overflow of water that covers land not usually submerged, which can occur when a river, lake, or rainwater rises and spills outside of normal boundaries.
Natural disasters Group3
This document summarizes different types of natural disasters connected to water: storms, floods, tsunamis, and heavy rainfall. Storms are strong gusty winds over bodies of water. Floods occur when water overflows river or lake banks or from heavy rainfall, including areal, riverine, and coastal flooding. Tsunamis are series of waves caused by displacement of water, often due to earthquakes. Heavy rainfall consists of water droplets that have condensed from vapor and fall due to gravity, impacting at increasing speeds with larger droplet sizes. All of these natural disasters can cause loss of life or property damage.
Natural disasters Group2
Floods occur when bodies of water overflow their normal boundaries due to excessive water accumulation. Hailstorms form when rain drops become ice before hitting the ground, and heavy hailstorms can damage agriculture. Strong winds over bodies of water produce storms and dangerous waves. Tsunamis are caused by underwater earthquakes and have much longer wavelengths than ordinary waves, enabling them to destroy coastal areas. Acid rain forms from air pollution and causes acidification of land and water. Landslides are sudden movements of soil and rock masses often triggered by heavy rainfall or thawing that threaten natural and valley slopes. Fog reduces visibility dangerously by suspending water or ice crystals in the air. Ocean currents are directed sea water movements produced
Natural disasters Group1
The document discusses several types of natural disasters including avalanches, floods, tsunamis, storms, and limnic eruptions. Avalanches pose a constant danger of killing many people and animals. Floods from heavy rain or storm surge endanger both populations and infrastructure in urban areas. Tsunamis occur when an enormous wave of water floods inland areas. Storms bring strong winds and huge waves out at sea. Limnic eruptions are rare events where dissolved carbon dioxide erupts from deep lake water, suffocating wildlife, livestock, and humans near the lake.
7 wonders of the world by group1
The document discusses 7 of the New Seven Wonders of the World: the Great Wall of China, Petra, the Christ the Redeemer statue, Machu Picchu, Chichen Itza, the Colosseum, and the Taj Mahal. It provides brief descriptions of each site, including when they were built, notable features, and historical context. It covers aspects like the Great Wall spanning over 2,000 years of construction and 1 million workers dying during its building, Petra's buildings carved into rock cliffs, and the Taj Mahal being a mausoleum built by an emperor for his wife.
Reincarnation by Constantinos Patsalis
Reincarnation is the belief that when one dies, one's soul is reborn in a new body. This is a central tenet of Hinduism and Buddhism and is also found in other religions and tribal societies. There are debates around what exactly is reincarnated - the soul? consciousness? The majority of Abrahamic religions like Christianity and Islam do not believe in reincarnation, seeing life as linear with an afterlife, rather than cyclical rebirth.
Spiritual Fathers
This document discusses spiritual fathers in Christianity. It explains that many Christians view spiritual fathers as mentors who guide them in living according to Christ and achieving spiritual salvation, beyond their natural fathers. It notes that some of the greatest modern spiritual fathers live at Mount Athos in Greece, called the Holy Mountain. It lists several famous spiritual fathers from the 20th century, including Father Paisios, Father Porfirios, Father Filotheos Zervakos, and Father Ieronimos of Aegina. The document concludes that even after death, spiritual fathers like Paisios continue to help people through miracles, such as appearing in visions, making prophecies, and discerning people's problems upon first meeting them.
Judaism by Antonia Kattou
Judaism is a religious tradition and cultural identity of the Jewish people that originated in the ancient land of Israel. It is one of the oldest monotheistic religions still practiced today. The core beliefs are that God revealed laws and commandments to Moses, and Jews follow teachings from the Torah. The symbol of Judaism is the Star of David, though historically the menorah was also an important symbol. Synagogues are the places of Jewish worship and study.
Judaism by Pavlina Paschalidou
Judaism dates back to around 1800 BC and developed as the traditional monotheistic religion of the Jews. Key teachings of Judaism include believing in one God, treating others well, honoring the Sabbath as a day of rest, praying regularly, and studying Jewish texts to gain wisdom. Today, Israel is the only country where Jews make up a majority of the population, though there are also large Jewish populations in places like the United States and some European countries. Sources of information about Judaism include academic blogs and websites outlining its key teachings.
Islam by Carolina Papademetriou
Islam is a monotheistic religion articulated by the Quran and teachings of Muhammad. It began in Mecca in the 7th century CE and Muslims believe God revealed the religion to Muhammad. The basic practices of Islam, called the Five Pillars, are the confession of faith, daily prayers, alms giving, fasting during Ramadan, and the pilgrimage to Mecca once in a lifetime if able. Some countries with large Muslim populations include Indonesia, Pakistan, Nigeria, Egypt, Turkey and others.
Hinduism by Theodoros Panayiotou
Hinduism's early history is difficult to define because there was no single "Hinduism" historically and it encompasses many traditions without a definite starting point. Hinduism's history is closely tied to social and political developments in South Asia over many thousands of years. Hindus generally believe that time is cyclical rather than linear, moving through successive ages of deterioration until the current "Iron Age" of cruelty and materialism.
Buddhism by Eleni Georgiou
Buddhism originated in India and is based on the teachings of Siddhartha Gautama, known as the Buddha, who lived between the 6th and 4th centuries BCE. The Buddha taught that life is suffering due to craving and ignorance, and that one can be liberated from suffering by eliminating craving and ignorance through understanding dependent origination and attaining nirvana. In Buddhism, karma refers to intentional actions that have moral consequences, and rebirth is understood as the continuation of a dynamic, ever-changing process determined by karma rather than the transmigration of a soul.
The rock of Digenis
Digenis was in love with Rigena and asked her to marry him, but she said she would only if he brought her water from distant areas of Cyprus. Though difficult, Digenis succeeded but Rigena didn't keep her promise, angering Digenis who threw a giant rock near her house. Another myth says Digenis lifted a huge rock and threw it into the sea to save Cyprus from invaders.
The Rock of Degenis by Constantinos
The Rock of Digenis, also known as Petra tou Romiou, is a solitary rock formation in northern Cyprus that is the subject of a famous Cypriot folk tale. According to the legend, Digenis transported water for his love Rigaina from a distant location through clay pipes, though she did not keep her promise to marry him. Enraged, Digenis threw a huge rock at Rigaina's house, while she threw her spinning needle at Digenis in return. Traces of the clay pipes can still be seen, and the rock formation and needle remain as landmarks related to the myth. The area around the Rock of Digenis is a popular tourist attraction for its natural beauty.
