𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐟? 𝐔𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲

By Anelly Aya
  The concept of the “Self” lies at the core of many spiritual and philosophical traditions. It is often described as the most fundamental aspect of our being, the true essence of who we are. However, the Self is not something we can easily grasp through our usual means of understanding, like thought, perception, or intellect. It transcends our physical, mental, and emotional experiences, yet it is ever-present and underlies all of them. In this chapter, we will explore what the Self is, how it differs from the ego or personality, and why understanding the Self is key to realizing true reality. The Self as Pure Consciousness At its essence, the Self is pure consciousness. It is the awareness that observes all experiences, but it is not limited by or attached to those experiences. It is the unchanging witness of all that arises in life—the thoughts, emotions, sensations, and perceptions we experience daily. To grasp this concept, think about a movie screen.

𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐮𝐥𝐚 𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭

By Anelly Aya

 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐮𝐥𝐚 𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 is a topical preparation made from the flowers of the calendula plant, also known as the marigold. It is commonly used for its skin-healing properties and is believed to soothe, calm, and reduce inflammation.

To make a homemade calendula ointment, you will need:

✔️ Dried calendula flowers
✔️ Olive oil or another carrier oil
✔️ Bees wax
✔️ A double boiler or a glass bowl over a pot of simmering water

Instructions:

✅ Fill a double boiler or glass bowl with the dried calendula flowers and the carrier oil.
✅ Heat the mixture over low heat until the oil has taken on the yellow color of the flowers.
✅ Remove the mixture from heat and strain the flowers from the oil.
✅ Place the oil back in the double boiler and add beeswax to the mixture.
✅ Heat the mixture, stirring occasionally, until the beeswax has melted and fully combined with the oil.
✅ Pour the mixture into a clean, sterilized jar and let it cool completely.
✅ Once cooled, the ointment can be used as a topical treatment for skin irritations, rashes, or wounds.
 

Calendula ointment is believed to have calming and soothing properties, making it a popular choice for those looking for a natural way to treat skin irritations and calm the skin. However, it's important to note that while calendula ointment is considered safe for most people, individual results may vary, and it's always best to consult with a healthcare professional before using any new skin care product.

Karma: A Path to Redemption, Healing, and Spiritual Growth

By Anelly Aya
    Karma is a term often shrouded in misconceptions. Frequently perceived as a form of cosmic retribution or a means to exact punishment, karma is often portrayed as a lurking force that deals out slaps for wrongdoings. However, this perspective oversimplifies and distorts the true essence of karma, reducing it to a mere tool of vengeance. In reality, karma is much more profound and compassionate - a mechanism for redemption, healing, and spiritual growth. Rather than being a punitive force, karma offers a sacred opportunity to make amends, clear past missteps, and ultimately return to a state of unity with the Divine. Understanding Karma Beyond Punishment At its core, karma is not about punishment. It does not operate with a vindictive spirit, nor does it seek to inflict harm for the sake of justice. Instead, karma functions as a spiritual mirror, reflecting back to us the energies we have put into the world. These reflections are not meant to condemn but to en...

The Self is the only reality

By Anelly Aya
  "The Self is the only reality that always exists, and in its light, all things are seen. We forget this and direct our attention to the external world. The hall is illuminated whether there are people in it or not, whether they are performing a play or nothing is happening. It is the light that allows us to see the hall, the people, and their performance. We are so absorbed by the objects or phenomena revealed by the light that we fail to pay attention to the light itself. Like the torches in the hall that always burn, the light of Consciousness or the Self is always present—whether in the waking state or the dream state, where things appear, or in deep sleep, where nothing is seen. What we must do is focus on the seer, not the seen, not on the objects, but on the light that reveals them." — Ramana Maharshi.
