No, A Hug Isn't COVID-Safe. But If You Have To Do It, Here's What To Keep In Mind

Some people who live alone may by now have gone months without touching or hugging another person. While avoiding close contact with others is one of the key measures to prevent virus spread, the irony is we probably need a hug more in 2020 than ever before.

How Does One Attain True Wisdom?

There is a difference between wisdom and knowledge. One could say that wisdom is knowledge that has been brought into one's heart and experienced as true.

Complete Union: Honor The Soul First

When a woman and man join, the coming together of bodies is the least of the meetings taking place. While the five senses are engaging in intense sensations, the minds of the two people are merging with all of their desires, aversions and thoughts.
