Secret History Of the World By Jonathan Black

  When i picked up the book "The Secret History Of the World" I thought it will reveal how world seems in the favor of some nations and how they have managed to make a good grip on everything going on here on this planet.

I had no idea that book written by Jonathan Black is about something really different in which I am less interested . I was little disappointed at first but once I stated to read it I felt quite fascinated with all the details about historic characters from myths and real world writer had discussed.

But I felt little disagreement later when at the end of each story regarding specific  character writer  had said something which was upsetting to me.

I don't know if any of you guys has read this book or not. May be few or no one at all.

According to Jonathan Black War between good and evil begins since universe has been created. Since beginning even when there lived "thought beings" who were most initial form of the "Consciousness" and were not confined in skull like human consciousness of today they had been fighting for survival and dominance on world. 

Those thought beings were emanation from the "Cosmic Mind"  who had full support of good and bad spirits to fulfill their cause. 

Writer after mentioning many famous historical characters from myths pointed out  many real life people who had influenced the history remarkably throuout the centuries. He said that those people gained tremendous success because they had unusual powers which they adopted by taking part in " intiation" a mental practice to achieve altered state of consciousness, kind of super natural power. 

Writer says that when consciousness sequeezd into the solid body of matter humans  lost connection with gods through spirit world. And to reestablish this connection ancient people invented secret schools that would teach intense ways of meditation such as living under ground for so long etc. This would make students mentally rich and strong unimaginably including having super natural powers. With such unique and extraordinary mental powers those people could achieve exceptional success in their lives. 

While taking all this writer mentioned a thing that seemed true by my personal experience.  He said that as humanity advanced and special people with spiritual teachings disappeared era of "yoga and meditation" started with the Buddhism. It opened way for each individual to peak inside and approach the inner universe where he can meet his maker directly. 

He said with many other including scientific references that regular meditation opens up the gland fixed above the left eye. And with that one realizes great enhancement of deeper understanding of the life. 

If you remember I have mentioned many times about improvement I have been feeling in my mental approach and performance overall since some years I have been doing yoga and meditation regularly.  I can never be thankful enough for this because when after the death of my parents I felt lost and broken these things saved me from sinking in the dark well of sorrow and despair. 

But I can't appreciate when writer seems to convince readers that they should learn magic because it is important to achieve success against evil and this is magic that allows us to manipulate the laws of Nature. 

I am a simple person with blind faith in "Creator" I  don't know whether I am born with it or not but I am very much assured that my maker has led me towards this faith step by step by showing his miracles. I may be know nothing but one thing I know with absolute certainty that leaning magic will make my God angry. And this is something I can never do surly. 

What do you say please share. 

Posting through tablet so  forgive if mistakes annoy you. 

Still raining. Though after putting plastic on roof has been great relief thankfully. 

Had no power and net yesterday. Appeared today so thought should post. 

See you soon guys take good care of yourself! 

Misery Caused By Sudden Long Nonstop Rain And Good News By Younger Son

It is raining outside. Actually some of it is raining inside as well.

Asia is going through a heavy rainfal and our country Pakistan is facing this  constant and grave rainfal since mid June.

Rains started in the second week of June and has been continued since then unstoppablly.

Two provenances Balochistan in neighborhood and Sindh (ours) are effected with sudden such lengthy spell of heavy rains as both providers are not used to have such weather at all in ages sadly.

Weather forms most of us and life we lead in daily manner. Heavy rains and for months are not in any existed schedule here. Winter are mild though summer are extremely hot but with little rains which hardly stays for while such as few minutes or half hour. So routine of living is designed here in which people's attitude is is like "task it easy" type. No extra efforts are put for survival. And caution for heavy lengthy rains are not in even imagination of anyone.

Homes and roofs are made commonly for sunny mild days. Roads have the same story and so is everything else including swerig system and market  place accessibility. 

It is is third month of non stop rain and needless to say that haven't seen sun properly since June. 

I think it is not hard to imagine that what kind of of difficulties people going through right now. Power is disappeared most of the time. Comes in periodically during night sometimes. Net is playing on and off too. Due to absence of the sun soalor battery is unable to recharge. Still providing energy enough to make a fan run which is treat in such humidity. 

As you know that we had built two rooms in upper portion of the house for storage . It is these two rooms who has saved us from trembling water. Although uncovered part of our house is is trembling. We had to remove everything from rooms made under uncovered roof and shifted it to  other parts of the house including bedroom. 

Despite the all misery rain is causing to us it is joy to have shade of   clouds that protecte from the scorching sun of terribly hot summers we have here every year. 

It is painful to learn about serious and big loss caused by the to the people of surrounding small villages specially because mud dam near by broke out and made areas around flooded. 

Roads of our small city have turned into rivers which restraining all kinds of market activities. People finding hard to shop utilities let alone the fruit or vegetables that city imports from other parts of the country. 

Can't say how long it will take to get into dry sunny normal days as more rain has been predicted next week. 

Feeling bad for those though who depend on the daily earnings! 

Hubby has brought few labor to and is trying to fix the trembling problem asap. But I doubt it because rain is ready to wash away everything labor has apllied. Sigh. Let's see what happens though I am thankful for having space left for us to stay in the house God is great indeed. 

On the happy side my younger son has been settled in the hostel. He has completed his first week as orientation week in Hubib university. He said he had fun week with new friends while playing various exciting practical games including scavengers in which he solved most of the riddles and won his group third position. Administration arranged a dinner on the last day of the week.His proper studies will start from 22 My son shared some photos of the cherish times. Sharing with you hope it will cheer you up dear friends! 

Photos From Ayub National Park Visit ,An Extended Version Of Pleasure

 

Visiting Ayub national park is kind of permanent part of our holidays stay in Islamabad . And it is because of it's serene  healthy environment and a happy feel that comes after visiting a beautiful public place. Ayub National park is claimed to be one of the largest park in the Asia .It covers 313 acers . It offers citizens of twin cities (Islamabad and Rawalpindi) a pleasant joyous domain where they can spend some wonderful time with manmade natural habitat for plants and other species co-existing with man. It seems also an effort to provide animals a safe place to grow . I realized during this recent visit  after covid that many enjoyable changes has been made by authorities. It is never easy see animal friends and sweet birds confined no matter how nice and big the cage is but still i was relived to find them wandering in extended portions . My younger son missed his elder brother who had been joining him always but thankfully he was consumed by many interesting activities soon and over all we had a pleasurable  three hours there .Sharing some photos hope you will like them .

 parks are crowded mostly after sunset so when we entered at 5 pm almost people were rare which made ticket purchasing easy and quick . 

an amusement carriage you can see above the head of my younger son ,children and elder were enjoying the ride despite it was hot day though bearable with pleasing breeze 

my younger son joined some kids of his age waiting for entry and then he visited the ghost room which he later said was not scary at all but he had to scream so boys don't find him weird 

we both waited for our son on bench while having water and enjoying soothing guts of breeze ,improved and less crowded park looked amazing !

can't say he or she but you see in photo below she was sitting peacefully ,actually we saw there was a group of some naughty teenagers who were holding stick and teasing  the animals ,twice they were standing beside so we ask them to stop politely ,my younger son was first to say this and then we both joined him, despite kids looked difficult they stopped immediately and the magnificent creature went back into her decent mood smoothly ,it was our first experience to see such mischievousness in all hose years  

it hurts to watch these elegant feathery friends walking within restrictions but surety that it is for their safety and growth brings peace of mind 

 

there are so many species of birds in park and i captured many of them but images are not fine enough to share sorry 

if remove the fence it could have been a beautiful capture i think ,agree ?

 a stage was posing for ladies ,i found it interesting ,both ladies looked at me while i was clicking but their friendly smile encouraged me that they are fine with it 

 we  watched these lovely couple for while as they looked little anxious as they were wandering not relaxingly but in kind of rush ,it can be huger may be 

 extended area and bigger confinement offers lengthy walk and it can make one tired specially overweight people 

 Oh don't you thing the baby Zebra is so CUTE :) he later got up and joined his mom close by though 

now this is perfect pose for a king of the jungle isn't it :) i wish my camera was good enough to catch her expression perfectly ,what is she thinking ? any idea ?

same kids i mentioned ,but they stopped when we requested thankfully , i think some extra guards needed to stay close by so can stop such mishap .

Hubby could not find device but good news that hubby and i am feeling quite better and a bigger good news for me that my laptop is allowing me to comment through it what a relief ! thank you dear Jenny for help .you are so sweet !

It is 14th of August , 75th Independence  day of our homeland so Happy birthday to Pakistan! 

that is it precious people,please keep taking great care of yourself in all means physically and spiritually ! blessings to all of you!

Meeting Sister After Twelve years , Comments revelation From Spam Box And Is It Covid Query

I wasn't sure sure why i am not feeling well though i took all the medicines regarding my flue ,cold and motions . Motions disappeared with first two doses but feverish feeling and flue seemed to stay inside somewhere in the corner and when i would quit medication it will start to reappear slowly . My eldest son pointed what if it was covid again . He told to buy a device that helps in checking covid at home . I am not sure if device is available here or not .It Is first Islamic month of Muharam and our small city of Khairpur remains almost shut down for first ten days for Shea community religious activities that attribute to Imam Hussain (a,s) the grandson of our prophet Muhamad (p,b ,u,h) who was martyred for the sake of  Islam by Yazid. People belong to Shea community celebrate their brutal murder of Imam and his family by mourning and lamenting while wandering in streets . This goes for one month and ten days though area is less occupied after first ten days of the Muharam. Tomorrow is tenth and  we are looking forward to open the city so can get back to routine mobility and shopping particularly. Hope hubby can find the device and i can check whether it is covid that taking so long to heal? 

Since we are back from Islamabad heat of this city is giving quite tough time and i think it is more because i am not feeling well already to bear it.More rains in surroundings but we have only cloudy weather . 

I was reading about comments dropping into spam box through many friend 's blogs so i checked mine week before .There were  143 comments among which almost 50 were from blogger friends . It seems that comments started to drop into spam box from January as dates showed ,how annoying and unjust it is . Thank you for being kind and helpful as without your help i would have remained totally ignorant about those precious comments from all of you!

My younger sister contacted me in January 2022 ,after twelve years. It was the same day when my nephew left for Saudi Arabia . She called and asked for some financial help through various excuses .One about her serious health issue made me think about helping her though i knew i had no option as my eldest son had helped in great way recently already . So there was no chance i would ask him again. I told hubby and he said "though we know this hardly earned money will go as waste i will"  and he sent her half lac immediately . I too knew but i wanted to do it only for once to prove that i am with her despite of all her she did to me always. As i said always we all see this world with our unique perspective and for me world is place where we come for really short while . We all live through standards set by our observations and experiences. According to my personal experience doing good selflessly brings peace of mind and sense of harmony with Nature ,so  i keep doing it. 

My one of the most beautiful sister invited me at her home in Islamabad where she lives with her husband and four kids ,two elders from second and two from one with whom she is since eight years. We whole family were shock to see that she did  not look the same person she was bold ,energetic brilliant and funny . her health seemed in danger when she told that doctor has told her to avoid drinking and smoking completely as her both kidneys are damaged . we met few times and i tried to use every minute in convincing her that she should adopt a healthy life style if not for herself but for children the smaller ones specially . But she replied clearly that "you should know your lectures are not for me so save them ,this is life i choose and i am going to stick with it and don't say when you know nothing .then she tried to justified her bad habits in way that her in laws are greedy and cruel and husband does not care about her much blah blahblah. if i will get in details i need ten posts so i save it for another time . her final denial to my advise saddened me deeply . it is painful to see your loved ones crawling towards cliff and reject to hold your hand . She was like this always . till death i will keep wondering Why ?????

when i heard one day that she had meet her first husband and handed over elder kids to him i felt some heavy rock has been removed from my chest ! i hugged her and kissed her forehead that she liberated her elder children from this hell at least . this one is taken on Eid day when we both went to village and visited grave of our parents together . Sadly and unfortunately she was not in her senses because of excessive drinking but i grabbed my peace that she was with me at that moment at least. in life i wanted to have a loving family since always but both of my siblings are not with same mindset . they are self centered but i still love them as they are children of my dear mom and father ! 

both kids of my sister (in middle) sent this image after settling down in the house of their biological father . their life has changed dramatically ,they have their genuine father with them who is very rich and established  man of Sawat in northern area. on left and right are sitting their step siblings . Their father according to them is happy to find them and tries to bring them all they wish immediately . this all makes me grateful and thankful to God and my sister who made it happen .whatever reason she had but this transformed the life of these kids for better hopefully !

"Dua" and "Naqash" both sent this photo to their mother in which they are standing with their step mother .i hope things stay positive between them and future of these kids who had suffered lot because of thier own mother may see soem light and peace in future amen!

taken on Eid evening before having tea ,in yellow the pretty little girl is my niece and in blue is son of my cousin .

Please pray for his father who had accident some days ago .A car rushed in and hit his legs .Driver ran away . The husband of my cousin is on bed since two weeks . I hope and pray that he gets well soon as he is the only bread earner of the family .

That is all for now dear people . See you soon ,i am visiting your blogs by cell smart phone or older tablet  but it makes me slow  as it is hard for me to read thin writing or typing fast .

Thank you for bearing ,in my  thoughts and prays all of you always!
