Sathya Sai Baba Miracles, truth and misconceptions
2009-01-20 11:22:00 Dr. Acharya Yogeesh of the Hindu-Jain ashram was very negative about Sathya Sai Baba’s miracle claims, such as the production of ‘holy ash’ (vibuthi). He is a fairly standard type guru and is not very convincing when he tells that one can “never trust anyone” except oneself. In fact, he did not forward any new ...

5 Misconceptions about truth & lies
2008-05-21 05:59:00 Lots of people reflect on what's good for them or not. Its not always straightforward to distinguish between truth and lies. Consider these 5 ideas which may prompt you to reflect on your own misconceptions:1) How do you feel? If you act purely based on your sense of truth, then you would expect to feel nothing but love, happiness, inner peace and contentment. If you are permitting your mind to wander, to believe or defend injustice, suffering or rationalize discomfort, then you hypothesize the opposite of love about society. You are also lying to yourself that it doesn't matter.2) Where does drama originate? Any drama or crisis you experience is grounded in lies, mainly about yourself. It begins when you decide you aren't something you really are or, you choose to ignore what you want to be based on what you decide you should be. If you evolved to believe you are perfect, lovable and nurture unwavering faith without lies, your...

Your Soul Purpose - 4 Misconceptions
2008-05-02 14:47:00 By Linda Gabriel http://ezinearticles.com/?exper-t=Linda_Gabriel Have you ever asked yourself, “What is my soul purpose?” If so, you are not alone. Not too long ago, the question on people’s minds might have been, “Is there a purpose to my life?” Now, the focus seems to have shifted. We know there is a purpose to our existence and we want to know what it is. One powerful way to connect with your soul purpose, is to begin understanding what your soul purpose is not. Here are 4 common misconceptions: Misconception #1: Earth is a school and my soul is here to learn “lessons”which are a sort of punishment for having failed the “last time.” Right here, right now, let’s please retire the dreary concept of soul “lessons.” It’s not the idea of learning that’s at issue. In fact your Soul loves to learn - that’s what Souls do! However, if you didn’t enjoy school as a child, the idea of being here to...

Biggest Credit Myths, Mistakes, and Misconceptions
2008-04-15 02:36:00 Good credit is well worth the effort it takes to both achieve and preserve it. If you have good credit, the following tips will help you keep it that way. If you are looking to improve your credit, however, now is the time to get started. Give us a call. We'll review your credit and find out exactly where you stand. In the meantime, if you plan on entering into a loan transaction in the next 6 to 12 months, you simply cannot afford to make the following credit mistakes: Don't fall behind on existing accounts. This includes your mortgage and car payments. One 30-day late can cost you anywhere from 30-75 points. Don't pay off old collections or charge-offs during the loan process. Paying collections will decrease your credit score immediately due to the "date of last activity" becoming recent. If you want to pay off old accounts, do it through closing, and make sure that 1) you validate that the debt is yours, and 2) the creditor agrees to gi...
5 Penny Stock Trading Misconceptions
2008-04-14 17:10:00 Thanks to my talent for self-promotion, I’ve been exposed to a crazy number of investors, traders and market theories. Here are a few misconceptions that keep popping up and are in desperate need of correcting: 1.You can’t short sell stocks under $5, you’re a liar and a fraud! Ridiculous, of course you can! There’s no SEC rule against it, many crappy brokers just don’t allow it—hence their “crappy” title. If you want to learn PennyStocking, shorting low priced stocks is essential—that’s why I use Thinkorswim, I’m proud to do all my trading there—they rock! 2. Smallcap and microcap trading is a joke, if you want to prove yourself as a trader, trade large stocks, currencies or futures. Also, what kind of a trader is afraid to use leverage? Thanks in no small part to the misguided, and ultimately harmful, teachings of yet another entertainment outlet masquerading as journalists, Traitor Monthly, many people think trading is about making the most, being the best...

Most Common Misconceptions About Cats
2008-04-12 05:48:00 Cats are as common as dogs, but somehow there are a lot of people who dislike cats more than they do dogs, but when asked why, their reply would be, oh, I just hate them, no particular reason. Why is it that some people dislike cats? Are they misinformed? Do they have misconceptions about the furry felines? Given a chance to change their opinions on cats, it is certain that they will find these animals just enjoyable as dogs as pets.Since cats and dogs are the most common house pets, they are frequently compared and judged. Through these constant comparisons, misconceptions about cats are formed, and people will realize some not-so-attractive qualities about cats. But a cat shouldn?t be compared with a dog, as a dog is an affectionate animal, and requires constant love and attention, whereas a cat has a more independent character. That would be appealing to some people who prefer a pet which isn?t so demanding.Let us now rid ourselves of the misconceptions we might have towards cats...

It can be of great assistance while you're learning, because W3C validator not only points out the errors in your code, you can also learn how to fix them.However, passing validation alone doesn't mean that you're page is built according to web standards.I once compared validation and spell checker. If you run this sentence through spell checkerDog fox brown lazy over jump.it will find no errors. But does that sentence make sense? No. Similar thing happen to your document when you're not using proper html elements for structuring your markup and not paying attention the the logical flow.I can't stress enough the importance of semantic markup.2.

Three Biggest Misconceptions Regarding China IP. One Trumps All.
2008-02-21 01:28:00 IP Dragon has a very short, but highly relevant post, entitled, "Catherine Sun Debunks Misconceptions About Chinese IP Protection." The post relates to a less than three minute video of Foley & Lardner (a Milwaukie, Wisconsin mega firm) attorney, Catherine Sun. Ms. Sun sees the following as the three biggest misconceptions: 1. IP is not enforceable in China. 2. Keeping brands and technology within the U.S. will keep them safe. 3. Counterfeiting products are of poor quality. I absolutely agree these three misconceptions are exceedingly common, but I think number 1 trumps them all both in terms of being the most common and the most destructive.

Diversity Misconceptions
2008-01-30 23:36:00 I had a conversation with a few different people (recruiters, hiring managers, company executives, etc) regarding diversity. As you would imagine, having earned the CDR designation garners a lot of attention and is often the start of conversations.Well, I've noticed a trend in these conversations. Because I have the designation, the fact that I'm a woman, and also African American and Hispanic, it is assumed that I have some ready to tap into pipeline to "diverse" candidates. Well this is partly true. But it makes me feel as though I am being stereotyped because of my race(s) and gender. True, I have worked hard over the years to establish key relationships with minority (I hate that word) associations, alumni groups, fraternities and sororities, etc. But I find it insulting that people often look beyond my skills and see my race and gender as a trump card in diversifying their companies.Diversifying may not be an accurate term. Some of the people I speak with express their ...

Orlando Jones to Star in Misconceptions - SendMeRSS
2008-01-16 00:42:00 Orlando Jones to Star in Misconceptions Written by David MorganOrlando Jones, aka the original 7-Up Guy, has been keeping a relatively low profile over the past few years, though his IMDb page assures us he's been keeping busy. Now he's been cast in Misconceptions, an independent dramedy from writer-director Ron Satlof. According to THR: The story centers on a religiously conservative married woman (played by A.J. Cook of Criminal Minds) from the South who receives a message from God telling her to act as a surrogate mother for two gay men. Jones will play Terry, the hopeful parent who comes to the woman's home to micromanage her pregnancy and in the process causes havoc.The cast also includes Sarah Carter, Sam Ball, David Sutcliffe and David Moscow. Moscow will play Jones' life partner. Ira Pearlstein co-wrote the screenplay with Satlof. The premise sounds a bit like a bad sitcom pilot (or KKK propaganda- "the blacks and the gays want you to carry their ...

Non-Muslims Referred as 'KAFIRS'
2007-12-02 20:41:00 Question:Why do Muslims abuse non-Muslims by calling them ?Kafirs??Answer By Dr Zakir Naik:?Kafir? means one who rejects.?Kafir? is derived from the word ?kufr?, which means to conceal or to reject. In Islamic terminology, ?Kafir? means one who conceals or rejects the truth of Islam and a person who rejects Islam is in English called a ?non-Muslim?.If non-Muslims are hurt - they should accept Islam.If any non-Muslim considers the word ?Kafir? i.e. ?non-Muslim? as an abuse, he may choose to accept Islam and then we will stop referring to him as or call him a kafir i.e. a non-Muslim.The End.No More Post
Vast Difference Between Islam And The Actual Practice of Muslims
2007-12-02 20:39:00 Question:If Islam is the best religion, why are many of the Muslims dishonest, unreliable, and involved in activities such as cheating, bribing, dealing in drugs, etc.?Answer By Dr Zakir Naik:1. Media maligns Islam1. Islam is without doubt the best religion but the media is in the hands of the westerners who are afraid of Islam. The media is continuously broadcasting and printing information against Islam. They either provide misinformation about Islam, misquote Islam or project a point out of proportion, if any.2. When any bomb blasts take place anywhere, the first people to be accused without proof are invariably the Muslims. This appears as headlines in the news. Later, when they find that non-Muslims were responsible, it appears as an insignificant news? item.3. If a 50 year old Muslim marries a 15 year old girl after taking her permission, it appears on the front page but when a 50 year old non-Muslim rapes a 6 year old girl, it may appear in the news in the inside pages as ?Ne...
Why Are Muslims Devided Into Sects / Different Schools Of Thoughts ?
2007-12-02 20:24:00 Question:When all the Muslim follow one and the same Qur?an then why are there so many sects and different schools of thoughts among Muslims?Answer By Dr Zakir Naik:1. Muslims Should be UnitedIt is a fact that Muslims today, are divided amongst themselves. The tragedy is that such divisions are not endorsed by Islam at all. Islam believes in fostering unity amongst its followers.The Glorious Qur?an says:"And hold fast,All together, by the ropeWhich Allah (stretches out for you),and be not divided among yourselves;"[Al-Qur?an 3:103]Which is the rope of Allah that is being referred to in this verse? It is the Glorious Qur?an. The Glorious Qur?an is the rope of Allah which all Muslims should hold fast together. There is double emphasis in this verse. Besides saying ?hold fast all together? it also says, ?be not divided?.Qur?an further says,"Obey Allah, and obey the Messenger"[Al-Qur?an 4:59]All the Muslim should follow the Qur?an and authentic Ahadith and be not divided among themselve...
Was Islam Spread By Sword ?
2007-12-01 13:31:00 Question:How can Islam be called the religion of peace when it was spread by the sword?Answer:It is a common complaint among some non-Muslims that Islam would not have millions of adherents all over the world, if it had not been spread by the use of force. The following points will make it clear, that far from being spread by the sword, it was the inherent force of truth, reason and logic that was responsible for the rapid spread of Islam.1. Islam means peace.Islam comes from the root word ?salaam?, which means peace. It also means submitting one?s will to Allah (swt). Thus Islam is a religion of peace, which is acquired by submitting one?s will to the will of the Supreme Creator, Allah (swt).2. Sometimes force has to be used to maintain peace.Each and every human being in this world is not in favour of maintaining peace and harmony. There are many, who would disrupt it for their own vested interests. Sometimes force has to be used to maintain peace. It is precisely for this rea...
Muslims are Fundamentalists and Terrorists
2007-12-01 13:31:00 Question:Why are most of the Muslims fundamentalists and terrorists?Answer:This question is often hurled at Muslims, either directly or indirectly, during any discussion on religion or world affairs. Muslim stereotypes are perpetuated in every form of the media accompanied by gross misinformation about Islam and Muslims. In fact, such misinformation and false propaganda often leads to discrimination and acts of violence against Muslims. A case in point is the anti-Muslim campaign in the American media following the Oklahoma bomb blast, where the press was quick to declare a ?Middle Eastern conspiracy? behind the attack. The culprit was later identified as a soldier from the American Armed Forces.Let us analyze this allegation of ?fundamentalism? and ?terrorism?:1. Definition of the word ?fundamentalist?A fundamentalist is a person who follows and adheres to the fundamentals of the doctrine or theory he is following. For a person to be a good doctor, he should know, follow, and pra...
Ruling on drinking Coca Cola
2007-11-27 16:07:00 Question:I have been told by one of my friend that drinking coke is haram because if we see it in mirror the way its been written it becomes "LA ALLAH LA MUHAMMED" witch means no ALLAH no Muhammad, and she says who ever drinks it is not a Muslim, please kindly let me know how true it is, and is it really haram or not, thanks.Answer:Praise be to Allaah.What has been said about Coca Cola, that there is written on it the words ?La Allaah la Muhammad? or ?La Muhammad la Makkah? and that this can be seen by looking at the writing in a mirror, is not true, so there is no shar?i ruling that follows from that.You should keep away from over exaggerations and illusions that have no basis.Any food or drink that is proven to be harmful is haraam, but if there is no such proof then the basic ruling is that they are halaal, and they cannot be deemed haraam on the basis of mere conjecture and speculation.But if the company that produces it is hostile to Islam and supports its enemies, then it shou...

Three Common Mistakes made after Prayer
2007-11-25 15:03:00 1. Greeting and Shaking Hands after Prayer: [1]Abu Hurairah (radyAllaahu ?anhu) reported that the Prophet (sallAllaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said: "If one of you meets his brother, then he should greet him with Salaam. Then if a tree or a wallor a rock should come between the two of them and then he meets him again, he should greet him with Salaam again." [2]In this hadeeth, the Prophet (sallAllaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) has commanded the Muslims, when any of them encounters his Muslim brother to greet him with Salaam. This is because of what the greeting consists of from the growth of unity, eradication of hatred and the bringing about of love. The command in this hadeeth is only a recommendation, meaning it is strongly advised and encouraged, and not obligatory.And there is no distinction in this matter between one that is in a masjid or outside of it. Rather,the authentic Sunnah indicates the prescription of greeting those who are present in the masjid with Salaam, regardless if they...
Choosing a School and Friends for your Child
2007-11-25 15:03:00 Choosing a School:The father should strive to carefully choose a good school for his child, thus selecting the one that is of the finest quality and not necessarily the one that is closest to him. He should also ask those involved in the field of teaching and educating, who are sincere and honest, as to which of the schools is the best.School has a deep impact on a student since it is there that he spends a quarter of his day ? which is in fact the best time of the day. In the school he learns and is educated, and that is the place where he finds friends and companions.So based on this, the father must keep a close connection with the school by going to visit it, staying in contact with it by phone and asking about the state of his son or daughter. He should be concerned with asking about his child?s character, behavior and friends before asking about his grades.He should also follow up on his child?s educational development and studies, and check his notes and homework and be aware...
