The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola
These are the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola, a plan of contemplation to be carried out over about a month. St. Ignatius of Loyola (1419-1556) was the founder of the Jesuits, and was canonized by Pope Gregory XV in 1622. He published the Spiritual Exercises in 1548. TheExercises were intended for use during a retreat; and are a central part of the first year training of Jesuit novitiates. However, one does not have to be a Jesuit-in-training to take advantage of theExercises: Increasingly, lay people and even non-Catholics follow this path.

Prozac Nation
Pretty cool at times I must admit, but she (Ricci) just can't find stable ground through out all the film. Apparently the last part though she likes the Prozac though, she also gets high from pot and drinks.
I don't get the moral. Is prozac good or bad? Watch it to figure that part out.

The Spiritual Meaning Of Colors
Why are we attracted to specific colors and what do they mean spiritually?
Visible Light Frequencies
According to David Icke, we are only capable of seeing a limited range of colors and we are unable to see the frequency range beyond visible light. Icke believes that certain races of extraterrestrial beings called Reptilians operate on a different frequency outside visible light and manipulate our current reality through Illuminati families.

Release The Past
By H. Alderman
In this context, spiritual pride is the belief that one person is better than another because they have studied longer; or their perception of the Universe is more correct that another perspective offered; or simply arrogance towards another who is on a different path.
Before I start I will state here that spiritual pride in the context of being proud to stand up and assert yourself in Love and Light is not what I am talking about here: I am talking about the ego’s spiritual pride.So do you have moments when your ego asserts itself when the subject of spirituality steps forward?
The ego is but a defence mechanism for while we are working on this Earth, however over time as humanity has evolved so has the ego. Just look at the materialism and fear that is in the world today. The ego lives off fear, and wants nothing else but to keep its hold over us.
What if I told you that by being mindful of your interactions with others who seem to be spiritually proud in a negative way is simply an indicator of your spiritual pride and attitude?
