The underlying principle is that we, humans, animals, vegetal and mineral, earth and all planets and galaxies, what we see and what we don’t see, all are part of ONE.
It’s no mystery why “secrets” to success are generally so practical. A career involves many kinds of decisions, and we all foster the hope that there’s a recipe for making these decisions, even though research combined with experience tells us that there isn’t. This doesn’t stop aspiring, ambitious people from clinging to a set of habits, attitudes, beliefs, etc. that are supposed to give them the competitive edge.

“Consciousness creates reality,” a statement that has gained a lot of attention across various alternative media outlets around the world.

Spiritual awakening is quite simply a shift in consciousness.

“To harmonize the whole is the task of art.”
“Art is a form of nourishment (of consciousness, the spirit),” 31-year-old Susan Sontag wrote in her diary in 1964. “Art holds out the promise of inner wholeness,” wrote Alain de Botton half a century later in the excellent Art as Therapy.

The psalmist and the skeptic and the prophet and the professor look at the universe in which we find ourselves, see the same stars, feel the warmth of the same sun, hear thunder pealing from the same sky, understand the processes by which nature unfolds in spring, retreats in fall only to regenerate again the following year, and yet often draw different conclusions from the same observable data. So, for instance, in response to the emergence of humankind, a non-theist might merely record the evolutionary data or might marvel at the improbability, the mystery, and the grandeur of our existence. The traditional Jewish believer, by contrast, might offer a prayer to the Supreme Being: Blessed are You, sovereign of the universe, who has fashioned us from the dust of the Earth in Your image and breathed our soul into us.

Yet now you must choose between little love and big love, between little life and big life, between little God and big God, between little freedom and big freedom, between little joy and big joy, between little wisdom and big wisdom, between little world and big world.
