Does God exist? It is a question every person is faced with. However, the real question is not whether God is. Even the devil knows that God exists. The question that matters is not, “Do I believe in God?” but “Do I love Him?” The following pages lay out several reasons why everyone should love him. Knowing the love of God - God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit - and loving our fellow human beings through that love, is what every person was made for. It is what you were made for. It is your birthright and your destiny. Whatever you believe now, you deserve to know this truth, even if it is a truth that is often ridiculed, buried, and ignored. Christ suffered, died and rose again so that we might know the truth and he instituted the Catholic Church as the place where the truth is to be found. ...

É pela inquietude do espírito que se lança ao mundo em busca de si mesmo, em busca de revelações, de porquês. É nesta empreitada, ao se encontrar com o novo, com novas formas de vidas e de seres, que se questionam e se fundamentam os verdadeiros valores. São estes valores que direcionam àquilo que um dia será chamado de “o novo eu”. Um novo ser que violentamente se confrontará com seu antecessor, até que apenas um prevaleça ou um terceiro se derive dos restos alheios, torto e descontrolado, a ponto de exigir as mais atitudes extremas daqueles que sempre estiveram ao lado com as mãos estendidas. Atitudes mal interpretadas que levam a um perigoso caminho sem volta: aquele da contradição existencial....

Like a dumb waiter he drops, searching for further purgation. A birthing breed of angel vision blooms in the ashes of his cataracts. The secret world within unfolds as his inner light ignites. Aztec pattern lines shock electric at all sides. Wallpaper trappings of crying cherub limelight sing organic smile symphonies of tears and Incan stucco into cluster groupings of Sephiroth Argus eyeballs – staring hallucinating mind frames into Mozart paradigms of ‘Ode to Joy’ perception processions, while brain hemispheres synch worldly pleasures around themselves, colliding emotions into sacred Renaissance sustenance, tickling thoughts like a chimney sweeping feather duster of forget-me-nots and lilac pansy posies breaking their bosoms apart with sacral chakra springtime morning espresso shots. All the Templar hidden holy grails clink and clack around his head during the last supper’s engagement party, becoming ritualistic first of the season dinner motifs, ringing supper bells, pin drop crispy, around Grecian Olympia ribbon dance twirling songs a’ spire sparkler popping into peaking discussions filled fat with Romanticized Latin.

ТАЛАНТЪТ Само него, таланта, получиха в дар - и как мощно го пожелаваха, и как вярно му се отдаваха, как на отшелници заради него ставаха и след най-страшен разгул, как го хранеха и как го пояха - с кръв и с късове плът, голяма плата за него плащаха, главите си на тепсия поднасяха, но него никога не изпуснаха, нито заровиха, защото – Божието -Богу.

Journey to the West is one of the Four Great Classical Novels of Chinese literature. It was written in the 16th century during the Ming Dynasty and attributed to Wu Cheng'en. The novel is a fictionalized account of the legendary pilgrimage to India of the Buddhist monk Xuanzang, and loosely based its source from the historic text Great Tang Records on the Western Regions and traditional folk tales. The monk travelled to the "Western Regions" during the Tang Dynasty, to obtain sacred texts (sūtras). The bodhisattva Avalokiteśvara (Guanyin), on instruction from the Buddha, gives this task to the monk and his three protectors in the form of disciples — namely Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing — together with a dragon prince who acts as Xuanzang's steed, a white horse. These four characters have agreed to help Xuanzang as an atonement for past sins. Journey to the West has a strong background in Chinese folk religion, Chinese mythology and value systems; the pantheon of Taoist immortals and Buddhist bodhisattvas is still reflective of Chinese religious beliefs today. Enduringly popular, the tale is at once an adventure story, a...

Calendar symbols of one sort or another occur on a surprising variety of monuments, both of early and late periods. The most important of these monuments for the study of the workings of the calendar system in detail are certain remarkable picturebooks or manuscripts, made on folded strips of deerskin, or on paper made of the fibre of the maguey (Agave americana). These manuscripts are usually spoken of as "codices." Only a few of these native manuscripts survived the introduction of European civilization into America. Those which were preserved were taken to Europe as curiosities, and often preserved through mere luck. The ones still extant have received a great deal of attention since the early part of the last century. All but a few of the originals are still in Europe, and are at the present time considered priceless....

This genuine sci-fi artifact comes from another world and is a companion piece to the Skyraco ePulps. This souvenir collectable is a must-download for any Skyraco fan across the Earth. The Skyracos Dicta was compiled from the notes of Ozgood Price, the first and most famous Skyraco.

You may even discover something about yourself once you look inside......
