Finally he accepted Islam and became muslim. Read his research story..................
By Dr. Amtul Qudoos Farhat
"We (Allah) rehearse unto thee a portion of the story of Moses and Pharaoh With truth, for the benefit of a people who would believe. (Al Quran 28:04) We sent Moses with Our Signs to Pharaoh and his chiefs, but they unjustly rejected them. Behold, then, what was the end of those who created Disorder!" (Al Quran 7:104)
"This day shall We save you (O Pharaoh) in your body, that you may be a Sign to those who come after you! But indeed, many among mankind are neglectful of Our Signs." (Al Quran 10:92)
Pharaoh who denied the prophet hood of Moses died more than 3000 years ago. More than 1500 years after the Pharaohs death, the Holy Quran prophesized that Pharaohs body has been saved. In the 19th century, the prophecy of the Holy Quran became fulfilled when Pharaohs mummy was discovered.
The word Pharaoh:
Since the term Pharaoh has been used for multiple kings of ancient Egypt, it should be established as to which Pharaoh the Holy Quran prophesizes about and whether this is the same Pharaoh whose dead body was found in the 19th century. According to the book Reading the Past-Egyptian Hieroglyphics, published by the British Museum, Egyptians did not call their rulers Pharaoh until the 18th Dynasty (1552 - 1295 BC).The title Pharaoh was coined to designate the king from the new kingdom onward. In the language of the hieroglyphs, Pharaoh was first referred to the king during the reign of Amenhophis IV (1352-1338 BC). Prior to this period Pharaoh was used for majestic buildings and palaces. The ruler of Egypt in the time of the prophet Moses, may peace be on him, is called Pharaoh in the Holy Quran. The Book of Exodus, In the Holy Bible also refers to him as Pharaoh in at least 120 places.
Dynasties of Pharaohs:
The period of the New Kingdom (1600 BC-1150 BC) / (1552-1068 BC) corresponds to the Mosaic Period. The kings and Pharaohs who ruled during this period include: Ahmose, Amenhotep (Amenophis), Tuthmose (Thuthmosis), Hatshepsut, Akhenaten (Amenophis IV), Tutankhamen, Horemheb, Seti (Sethos), Ramesses and Merenptah. Since the prophet Moses lived around 13th century BC so one of these rulers must have Been the Pharaoh of Mosaic period. the ancient kingdom of Egypt is divided in to periods and dynasties:
1 Dynasty 1 The Early Dynastic Period 3000-2600 B.C. The first & second Dynasties
2 The Old Kingdom 2600-2100 B.C. The Third to Eighth Dynasties
3 The First Intermediate Period 2100-2050 B.C. Ninth and Tenth Dynasties
4 The Middle Kingdom 2050-1800 B.C. The Eleventh and Twelfth Dynasties
5 The Second Intermediate Period 1800-1600 B.C. The Thirteenth to Seventeenth Dynasties
6 The New Kingdom 1600-1150 B.C. The Eighteenth to Twentieth Dynasties
7 The Late Dynastic Period 1150-330 B.C. The Twenty-First to Thirtieth Dynasties
The Pharaoh of Moses a Transgressor according to the Quran:
When Moses and Aaron, may peace be on both, were commissioned to prophet hood, they were directed to deliver the message of Allah to Pharaoh, the arrogant and the transgressor. They asked him to liberate the Israelites from his bondage and there are several mentions of this communication in the Holy Quran:
We are the Messengers of the Lord of the worlds. (26:17) (20:25) (20:44)
And We did send Moses with Our Signs to Pharaoh and his chiefs, and he said, I am truly a Messenger of the Lord of the worlds. (43:47) (7:105)
Indeed, Pharaoh behaved arrogantly in the earth, and divided the people thereof into parties: he sought to weaken a party of them, slaying their sons, and sparing their women. Certainly, he was of the mischief- makers. (28:05)
Pharaoh proclaimed to be the lord himself and challenged the supreme authority of Allah. He said: Who then is the Lord of you two, O Moses?(20:50) What then will be the fate of the former generations?(20:52)
O chiefs, I know of no God for you other than myself; (23:39)If thou takest a God other than me, I will certainly put thee into prison.(26:30)
O my people! does not the kingdom of Egypt belong to me and these streams flowing under me? Do you not then see? (43:52)
His people didn't accept the message because of fear of persecution, according to the Holy Quran:
And none obeyed Moses save some youths from among his people, because of the fear of Pharaoh and their chiefs, lest he should persecute them. And of a truth, Pharaoh was a tyrant in the land and surely he was of the transgressors. (10:84) (20:80) (23:47)
Pharaoh challenged, If thou (Moses) hast indeed come with a Sign, then produce it, if thou art of the truthful. (7:107) And We did show him (Pharaoh) Our Signs, all of them; but he rejected them and refused to believe. (20:57) (10:76) (17:02)
Moses explained to him again: Thou knowest well that none has sent down these Signs but the Lord of the heavens and the earth as so many evidences; and I certainly think thee, O Pharaoh, to be a ruined man.(17:103)
Pharaoh invited wrath of God and in doing so he was a transgressor. He called Moses a mad man,a magician,a liar (40:25) and threatened to kill him (40:27).
Exodus: (Bibles 2 nd Book/Taurat)
Dr. Maurice Bucaille writes about Exodus in his book, the Bible the Quran and Science examines whether Moses dealt with one Pharaoh or two different ones in his life time. He writes, This hypothesis, which starts with the Bible, is complemented by the information contained in the Qur'an. Modern data are added to these two Scriptural sources and it is thus possible, through a confrontation between the Bible, the Qur'an and today's knowledge, to situate this episode from the Holy Scriptures in a historical context.
The Holy Quran tells how Israelites under the guidance of Moses and Aaron planned to cross the Red Sea, and how they were chased by Pharaoh of the time and his hosts and in doing so, they all drowned:
We brought the Children of Israel across the sea and Pharaoh and his troops pursued them out of tyranny and enmity. Then, when he was on the point of drowning, he (Pharaoh) said, I believe that there is no god but Him in whom the Children of Israel believe. I am of those who submit to God. What! Now! And indeed you disobeyed before and you were of the mischief-makers. This day shall We save you in your body, that you may be a Sign to those who come after you! But indeed, many among mankind are neglectful of Our Signs." (Al Quran 10:90-92)
The Holy Quran reveals detailed account of the last moments of Pharaoh while drowning. It reveals that Pharaoh accepted and submitted to the God of Moses Who promised him to be saved in body and made a sign for the world.
This is the prophecy which no other scripture had revealed. Not even the historians of the time had any clue. The mummified bodies of all the Pharaohs lay concealed in the Valley of Kings (KV7 & 8) along the banks of the Nile at this time and even the plunderers of tombs did not know who was buried in them. Their discovery took place in the 19 th century.
The Old Testament also gives the account of Pharaoh as follows:
"And the waters returned, and covered the chariots, and the horsemen, and all the host of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them; there remained not so much as one of them. (Exodus 14:28) For the horse of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and the LORD brought again the waters of the sea upon them; but the Children of Israel went on dry land in the midst of the sea. (Exodus 15:19) Unlike the Holy Quran, in this account of the Old Testament, there is neither any clue of the last moments of Pharaoh nor of the destiny and fate of his mummy in years to come. All it mentions is that all of them drowned.
According to Dr. Maurice Bucaille:
When the Qur'an was transmitted to man by the Prophet, the bodies of all the Pharaohs who are today considered (rightly or wrongly) to have something to do with the Exodus were in their tombs of the Necropolis of Thebes, on the opposite side of the Nile from Luxor. At the time however, absolutely nothing was known of this fact, and it was not until the end of the Nineteenth century that they were discovered there. As the Qur'an states, the body of the Pharaoh of the Exodus was in fact rescued: whichever of the Pharaohs it was, visitors may see him in the Royal Mummies Room of the Egyptian Museum, Cairo. The truth is therefore very different from the ludicrous legend that Father Couroyer has attached to the Qur'an.
Who was the Pharaoh of Moses: Ramesses II or his son Merneptah?
The name of Pharaoh whom Moses gave the message of God has not been mentioned in the Holy Bible or the Holy Quran. Scholars have placed Moses at various points within the New Kingdom from Tuthmosis II (1493-1479 BC) to Merneptah (1212-1202 BC). The Academic American Encyclopedia situates Moses in the 13th century BC and the Exodus taking place in 1250 BC. By historical and religious consensus Moses was born and brought up by Ramesses II son of Seti, the first (1301-1235 BC) who ruled for more than 65 years.8 According to Encyclopedia Britannica, as it describes Ramesses II the Great, He was the third king of the 19th dynasty (1292-1190 bce) of ancient Egypt, whose reign (1279-13 bce) was the second longest in Egyptian history. In addition to his wars with the Hittites and Libyans, he is known for his extensive building programs and for the many colossal statues of him found all over Egypt. Merneptah, the warrior king of Palestine was his successor who ruled only for few years (4-8 years).
Holts World History:
A Dictionary of important people, places and events, identifies Merneptah as the Pharaoh of the Exodus. Similarly the Egyptologist Pierre Montet in his book Egypt and the Bible also concludes that Merneptah was the Pharaoh of the Exodus. The Hutchison New Century Encyclopaedia also believes that Merneptah was most likely the Pharaoh at that time.
According to Father de Vaux's theory:
There was a single ruler during the period of Moses life time. (The Ancient History of Israel) and that unquestionably makes Ramesses II the Pharaoh of Moses. Actually, as early as Eusebius of Caesarea, Ramesses II was identified as the Pharaoh of Exodus. The most popular and authentic film on Christianity "The Ten Commandments" released in 1958 cast Yul Bryner as Ramesses II, the Pharaoh of Exodus.
According to Encyclopedia Britannica:
The reign of Ramses II marks the last peak of Egypt's imperial power. After his death Egypt was forced on the defensive but managed to maintain its suzerainty over Palestine and the adjacent territories until the later part of the 20th dynasty, when the migration of militant Sea Peoples into the Levant ended Egypt's power beyond its borders.
So far historians agree that the Pharaoh of Exodus was either the Ramesses II or his son Merneptah. Both of them were cruel and despotic to Israelites and bodies of both have been found and displayed in Cairo Museum for visitation. For the purposes of the Quranic prophecy, it does not matter whether Ramesses II or Merneptah was the Pharaoh of Exodus. Since the bodies of both, Ramses II and Merneptah have been found, confirmed medically and displayed for visitation for all mankind in the Cairo Museum; bearing testimony to the fulfillment of the prophecy of the Holy Quran 1500 years ago!
The elegance of the Quranic prophecy:
This day shall We save you (O Pharaoh) in your body, that you may be a Sign to those who come after you! But indeed, many among mankind are neglectful of Our Signs." (Al Quran 10:93)
Hadhrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad writes in his book Revelation, Rationality, Knowledge and Truth: All that the Bible mentions of Pharaoh and his pursuing army is that each of them was drowned without exception. '
"Then the waters returned and covered the chariots, the horsemen, and all the army of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them. Not so much as one of them remained. But the children of Israel had walked on dry land in the midst of the sea...' (Exodus 14:28-29)
Evidently, according to this Biblical statement, all bodies were claimed by the sea, Pharaoh being no exception. The rout was total. As against this, the following is the statement of the Quran referring to the same event. The difference is so obvious:
And We brought the children of Israel across the sea; and Pharaoh and his hosts pursued them wrongfully and aggressively, till, when the calamity of drowning overtook him, he said, 'I believe that there is no God but He in Whom the children of Israel believe, and I am of those who submit to Him.'
What! Now! While thou wast disobedient before this and wast of those who create disorder.
So this day We will save thee in thy body alone that thou mayest be a Sign to those who come after thee. And surely, many of mankind are heedless of Our Signs.
It should be especially noted here that contrary to this Quranic statement, the Biblical account does not as much as hint at the possibility of the retrieval of Pharaoh's body: '... not so much as one of them remained.' (Al Quran 10:91-93)
Hence, till the time the Quran mentions the saving of Pharaoh's body with the purpose that the posterity may learn their lesson from it, no human source of history had ever referred to it.
When the Quran was revealed, the tombs of the Egyptian kings lay buried deep under layer upon layer of desert sand. Little was known of the science of mummification to the people of that age, certainly not to the Arabs. No books or tradition, religious or otherwise, had ever hinted at the rescue of Pharaoh's body let alone mention its subsequent preservation. This account of the Quran is unique also in the sense that it does not merely reveal some past events which were till then unknown to the rest of the world, but it also prophesizes that the future would testify to the truth of the Quranic statement. It was implausible enough to conceive that the body of Pharaoh having drowned in the conditions described by the Bible, could be retrieved. The phenomenon of such a body, even if retrieved, would present no small problem for the purpose of mummification.
Yet, this is what the Quran claims. No man could have dreamt of making such a statement contrary to the available historical evidence at the time of the revelation of the Quran. The contrast between the Quranic and the Biblical description is very glaring and speaks volumes about the elegance of the Quran and its special status among the scriptures.
Discovery of the mummy of Ramesses II:
It was discovered in 1881 among many other royal mummies in the Royal Cache in Deir el-Bahri (DB320) on the Theban west-bank. It was contained in a closely contemporary anthropoid wooden coffin and was superficially intact. The mummy was unwrapped by Gaston Maspero at Bulaq on June 03, 1886. A hieratic docket recording its rewrapping and reburial in the tomb of Seti I (KV17) was found beneath the outer bandages and a shroud decorated within an image of the goddess Nut.
The examination gave hints to the original burial. The linen fragments, woven in blue and metallic gold were discovered within the body. A microscopic examination of sand particles associated with the body suggested that pharaoh was embalmed in the north of Egypt, at some distance from the Nile. This is because no aquatic-plant pollen was found in the body. He was suffering from severe dental problems and was plagued by arthritis and hardening of the arteries. He died at about 90 years of age.
According to the recordings of hieroglyphics on the linen covering the body of the Ramesses II, he was originally buried in the tomb KV7 in the Valley of the Kings. It was removed from the actual royal tomb for safety reasons by Egyptian priests in the 10th year of the reign of king Pinodjem (around 1070 B.C.) and transferred to a holding area. They re-wrapped it and then placed it inside the tomb of queen Inhapy. Within three days it was again moved to the tomb of the high priest Pinudjem II. His mummy can be found today in Cairo's Egyptian Museum:
The pharaoh's mummy features a hooked nose and strong jaw, and is below average height for an ancient Egyptian, standing some 1.7 metres (5 ft 7 in). Microscopic inspection of the roots of Ramesses II's hair at a later stage proved that the original color of the king's hair was red suggesting the origin from a family of redheads. In ancient Egypt, people with red hair were associated with the god Seth, the slayer of Osiris, and the name of Ramesses II's father, Seti I, means follower of Seth.
In 1974, the mummy of Ramesses II was flown to Paris for examination. He was issued an Egyptian passport that listed his occupation as King (deceased). The mummy was received at Le Bourget airport, just outside Paris, with the full military honours befitting a king. In Paris, Ramessess mummy was diagnosed and treated for a fungal infection. During the examination, scientific analysis revealed battle wounds and old fractures, as well as the Pharaoh's arthritis and poor circulation. For the last decades of his life, Ramesses II was essentially crippled with arthritis and walked with a hunched back. Recent studies however excluded ankylosing spondylitis as a possible cause of the Pharaoh's arthritis. A significant hole in the Pharaoh's mandible was detected while "an abscess by his teeth was serious enough to have caused death by infection, although this cannot be determined with certainty. When Ramesses' mummy returned to Egypt, it was visited by the then-President Anwar Sadat and his wife.
Mummy of Merneptah:
The mummy of Merneptah was discovered in 1898 along with eighteen other mummies in the tomb of Amenhotep II. It is believed that he was originally buried in the Valley of the Kings. The mummy was unwrapped and identified in Cairo by Dr. G. Elliott Smith on July 8, 1907.
In 1975, Dr Maurice Bucaille received permission to examine the bodies of mummies. The primary medical examinations (1974-1975) of Ramesses II and Merneptah were carried out in Egypt by a team of ten doctors and dentists. They made certain discoveries which cast new light on a variety of old questions pertaining to Pharaoh Merneptah.
The forensic evidence was given by Dr Maurice Bucaille, a French surgeon and Archeologist who gave the forensic report that Merneptah died of asphyxiation/ due to drowning. He had no knowledge of Islam or the Holy Quran and its prophecies at that time. Knowing that this is the prophecy of the Holy Quran being fulfilled, drove him to learn Arabic to read and understand the Holy Quran himself. He ultimately became a Muslim. Merneptahs body bears the traces of fatal blows. It is reported that these marks may have been caused during his drowning or after the recovery of his body, that had washed ashore; the Egyptians mummified him like all the other Pharaohs. The tomb's location has meant that it has been very badly damaged in the flash floods that periodically sweep through the valley.
Dr Maurice Bucaille in his book The Bible, the Quran and Science also suggests that the reigning Ramesses II died when Moses was in Midian and the Exodus took place in the reign of Ramesses II's successor, Merneptah. Salt crystals in the mummy of Merneptah favored him as the drowned 'Pharaoh of the Exodus' some critics have pointed out that all mummies showed evidence of these embalming salts!
Dr. Maurice Bucaille suggests in his book, the Bible the Quran and Science that Ramesses II was the Pharaoh of the Oppression and Merneptah the Pharaoh of the Exodus. He writes: All the evidence points towards the fact that Moses was born at the beginning of Ramesses II's reign, was living in Midian when Ramesses II died after a sixty-seven year reign, and subsequently became the spokesman for the cause of the Hebrews living in Egypt to Merneptah, Ramesses II's son and successor. This episode may have happened in the second half of Merneptah's reign, assuming he reigned twenty years or nearly twenty years. Rowton believes the supposition to be quite feasible. Moses would then have led the Exodus at the end of Merneptah's reign. It could hardly have been otherwise because both the Bible and the Qur'an tell us that Pharaoh perished during the pursuit of the Hebrews leaving the country.
Ramesses II as the Pharaoh of the Oppression as well as the Pharaoh of the Exodus:
In this section we present the views of Hadhrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad, as described in his book, Revelation, Rationality, Knowledge and Truth. He favors Ramesses II as the Pharaoh of Exodus, from the Quranic description and suggests that he probably survived near drowning at the time of the Exodus and lived for sometime afterwards in a poor state of health and was mummified after his death. His support is based on following rationale:
1. The support for Merneptah comes from Bible according to which Moses, may peace be on him, was informed by God during his exile in Midian that the Pharaoh in whose reign he had committed manslaughter was dead. Therefore he could now return safely. This scenario seems logical and acceptable superficially but on reflection, death of a king does not absolve anyone of his crime. In the Holy Quran God does not even remotely hint at the death of any Pharaoh to dispel fear of Moses. Instead he is told not to fear because God would protect him and his brother irrespective of the Pharaoh who ruled the land. . So the biblical reasoning does not hold much water, Moses had to face the trial who ever was the Pharaoh at that time.
2. We also know from the Holy Quran that Moses was accused of his act of manslaughter by the Pharaoh to whom Moses returned. He was hesitant to take action because of the Divine signs which Moses had displayed. Evidently, his escape from punishment was certainly not due to the death of one Pharaoh and the enthronement of another.
3. According to the archaeological evidence Ramesses II who died at the ripe old age of ninety years had spent the last thirty years of his life as a bedridden, senile, tottering old man probably suffering from an extreme arteriosclerosis. His poor health could be a direct consequence of his near-drowning, resulting in an insufficient supply of oxygen to the brain for an extended period.
4. The exile of Moses to Midian and his entire stay there lasted only eight to ten years. Therefore on his return to Egypt Ramesses II could not be more than forty to fifty years old. Archeologically and medically we know that Ramesses II died at the age of 90 years.
5. The life of Moses and Aaron after their return to Egypt is described by the Quran and the Bible as very eventful and their confrontation with Pharaoh seems to be drawn out over decades. The Holy Quran mentions nine signs which includes years of drought and scarcity. Allah instructs the Israelites to build a township, something which would take years rather than days. All the signs narrated could not have been packed in few years time. Logically it was a prolonged period. However historians estimate that the entire reign of Merneptah from the day of his crowning to the day of his death lasted only eight years or less.
6. Moreover, history describes Merneptah as a warrior king who repeatedly attacked the Palestinians year after year. Both the Quran and the Bible are absolutely silent about the Pharaoh of Moses having carried out such expeditions into the land of Israelites.
The good works of Moses, may peace be on him, are all so apparent in our contemporary society. His name and wonderful influence will live eternally in the scriptures, the Holy Bible and the Holy Quran. Ramesses II or any other Pharaoh for that matter, leave no followers to applaud them. Their works have minimal influence in the contemporary world. Ozymandias was another name for Ramesses. 'Ozymandias' is also a sonnet by Percy Bysshe Shelley, published in 1818. It is frequently anthologized and is probably Shelley's most famous short poem.
The 'Younger Memnon' statue of Ramesses II in the British Museum thought to have inspired the poem by Shelley.
Here is the poem by Shelley:
I met a traveler from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone?
Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed.
And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away

Putin Wants World At War; Talks On Discouraging The Leader Surface
It is common knowledge by now that Russian President Vladimir Putin may be on a quest to dominate the world one way or another. NATO and the U.S. made it clear that they plan to stop Russian aggression, but experts argue that the situation will ultimately depend on the calculations of Russia. Will Russia tip the world balance?
Putin Wants the World to Be at War
Russia is tipping the balance in Ukraine as its forces continue to mass up near the region. Despite opposition and concerns, Moscow made it clear that it will be making a move on Ukraine regardless. Its troops will reportedly conduct a series of military exercises near the region, but some experts and Western officials believe Russia could only use these drills to mask an attack.
"But, at a time that should otherwise be a moment of national celebration, a serious crisis with Moscow is flaring up. So serious, in fact, that on Tuesday the Russian President Vladimir Putin, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Francois Hollande were forced to hold a three-way phone call to try to de-escalate the situation," the Independent said in its report about the situation in Ukraine.

The rise of conflict stems back to Russia's accusations after the Kiev tried an armed incursion into Crimea. The death of three Ukraine soldiers did not help the situation. While diplomatic efforts are ramping up, the report argues the crisis is just on the brink of becoming out of control.
Deterring Putin is Better
Another report from Newsweek claims that American and European leaders should understand that the key to solving the situation is to deter Russia than go to war.
"Bolstering NATO, improving intelligence and strategic information operations, putting a credible deterrent in Eastern Europe and supporting Ukraine's security and independence, is a realistic program that Washington, Berlin and Brussels can and should get behind," the report said.

Agricultural biotechnology, and crop science in general, includes plant cross-breeding techniques, trait selection, and genetic engineering in some cases. Biotech crops can make farming more profitable by increasing crop quality and may in some cases increasing crop yields. Where biotech crops are grown in proximity to related plants, the potential for the two plant species to exchange traits via pollen must be evaluated. In fact, according to the USDA National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS), biotechnology crops as a percentage of total crop plantings in the USA were about 88 percent for corn, 94 percent for cotton, and 93 percent for soybeans. Herbicide-tolerant crops are particularly compatible with reduced-tillage commercial agriculture systems that help preserve topsoil from erosion.
USDA researchers seek to solve major agricultural problems and to better understand the basic plant biology relating to crop science. Researchers may use biotechnology processes to discover things that may not be possible by more conventional means. This includes introducing new or improved traits in plants, animals, and microorganisms and creating new biotechnology-based products such as more effective diagnostic tests and farm animal vaccines. The USDA Economic Research Service (ERS) conducts research on the economic aspects of the use of genetically engineered plants, including the rate of adoption of biotechnology by farmers. Beyond major requirements within the sustainable agriculture department, you may consider Lower Columbia College online physics degree as an adjunct to your primary course of study.

Let Go
Let Go –
The quote in the picture is one of my favorite wisdom proverbs. Letting go of things is as important, and as difficult, as learning and gaining knowledge and wisdom. What I have learned over the years, however, is things have a way of coming back that you are gone and forgotten.
Earlier this week I was revisited by thoughts of someone who hurt me long ago. I have dealt with these thoughts before and have let go of them. These persistent thoughts though, like toilet paper stuck to the bottom of your shoe, have a way of following me wherever I go.
I recognize them for what they are; ruminating. "Ruminating is simply repetitively going over a thought or a problem without completion. When people are depressed, the themes of rumination are typically about being inadequate or worthless. The repetition and the feelings of inadequacy raise anxiety and anxiety interferes with solving the problem." Psychology Today (https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=3&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwilur2Iy6rWAhXFWSYKHYxNA4QQFgg5MAI&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.psychologytoday.com%2Fblog%2Fdepression-management-techniques%2F201604%2Frumination-problem-in-anxiety-and-depression&usg=AFQjCNFQ4v7E8XRgsUr7_j6GKQIIws-W_A) Rumination is a sign of or leading to a rise in my anxiety and a rise in anxiety leads to a depressive episode. I know this and yet the thoughts, at times, keep coming.
Usually, after a bit, with the thoughts tumbling over in my head, and the re-realization there is no satisfactory conclusion I let go again. I used to hope they would be gone for good but it is not meant to be. So I try to let them be an exercise in wisdom discipline and pray I get stronger each time I release the weight.

Dig –
A few weeks ago I broke the wooden handle on my shovel. This week my wife bought me a new one. It's a Kobalt and guaranteed "unbreakable". I did bend it a little today uprooting a stubborn bush. So unbreakable? Perhaps. Un-bendable? Nope.
It was, still is, a gorgeous day outside. Tomorrow the heat and humidity are supposed to come sweeping in but we enjoyed the moment of this day by working way too hard. We're both exhausted but it's a good tired.
As I dug holes for bushes and trees, filled the back of the truck with dirt and planted some grass with my new shovel I thought about the digging we do in our lives. Stillness, mindfulness, reflection are basically the same discipline with its goal to remove anything that stifles the life within us.
Digging around isn't easy on the outside or on the inside but it's necessary if we are to make old things new, ugly stuff beautiful, and go deep enough that growth, life, is possible.

Not so Fast
Not So Fast! –
Today, on my way to a meeting in Shelbyville, Tennessee I was cruising along at a crisp 60MPH when I spied a flashing construction sign which read; "New Signal Light Ahead. Be Prepared to Stop!" I was confused because I've never known this road to be extra busy but began to slow down as I rounded a curve and sure enough a new traffic light had been installed. It was red when I first saw it and stayed red…for a long time! I thought maybe the light was broken and we should begin proceeding carefully but none of the other vehicles moved. Finally, it turned green and as I reached the new light there were two signs which read; "Stop Here On Red." "Maximum Time for Red Light: Three Minutes." When you're traveling three minutes can feel like an eternity and certainly did as I waited for the green. For the record, the light was red on my way out-of-town as well. Grrrr!
Practicing stillness is important. I do it every day when I meditate, pray and at various other times, especially when it's been hectic. Stillness is a central discipline to gaining wisdom and experiencing life. However, I'd prefer to dictate when I will and won't be still. I'd like it to be my decision. I surely didn't want it on my way to a meeting, driving down a country road. Yet, here was a time of stillness forced upon me but instead impatience, confusion was the result.
To truly know stillness is to carry it with you. It shouldn't need to be conjured up on a timetable. Being still is more than a way of life it's a way of being. It's also a lesson and a discipline I'm still working on.

Toxic –
There's a funny, not so funny, saying that goes; "The world would be great if it wasn't for all the people!"
I spoke with someone today who's going through a difficult time. His relationship with someone important is slipping away and he can't do anything to stop it. I know this because he told me all the ways he's tried to stop it and nothing has worked. As we talked I reminded him of the troubling, but truthful news, that if someone decides not to be a part of your life anymore there's not much to do but accept it.
Sometimes people stay in toxic relationships because what you know is better than what you don't. However, sometimes one-half of the poisoned couple chooses to end it. Most of the time, even when it's for our own good, it's difficult to let go of someone we've shared a significant portion of our life.
Wisdom teaches us to keep an open hand on all things and with some things to turn your hand over and empty it. Relationships, be it marriages, partners, friends or co-workers should be built upon trust, love, kindness and mutual growth. When they go bad and there's no hope of restoration it's best to let go and move on.

Sore –
I am sore today! Yesterday we spent most of the day trimming and hauling away a big limb from one of the four huge trees in our yard. Today I am paying for it with sore arms, back, and legs. I don't think I've developed any muscles but trying to lift some of the pieces we sawed off yesterday gave me an appreciation of how strong the wind must've been to down the limb and how strong the tree was to support a limb of such great weight. It took a lot of energy, strength and time to remove most of the obstacle.
I spoke with a few friends today who are also trying to overcome a great obstacle. They are, like we did yesterday, dealing with it one piece at a time. When you're faced with a huge challenge there is a part of us who'd like to get it over with NOW! However, life doesn't usually work according to our time schedules. We must take each step, walk each mile, and hope the journey ends well.
I imagine a person who lifts and cuts wood as their job must be strong. I also know that those who face tremendous battles will develop the strength and energy necessary to see it to the end, what the end may be.

The Disease of Busyness
The Disease of Busyness –
Yesterday I attended a webinar on the importance of silence in the discipline of mindfulness. The two speakers, both doctors of psychology, wrote their thesis on the; "the silence in between" the notes in music. These pauses in between are just as important as the notes which are being played.
Too often we construct our lives with what we think makes us successful or at least look the part. We craft an existence that has no place for silence. We believe busyness is a sign of importance. Eugene Peterson says; "Busyness is the disease of our time."
When there is no place for silence, reflection, taking the time to breathe in quiet and breathe out the noise which pollutes our lives we die on the inside, in the deepest parts of our being where only silence can fill.

Honk! –
This morning, on my way to an appointment, I was driving and approached a side road with a truck and car stopped. At my speed and proximity to both vehicles, I figured they would wait until I passed. The truck began pulling out in front of me and I immediately took my foot off the gas and thought; "You don't have a lot of room there friend!" I slid my foot back to the gas pedal because there was no way the car would go…it did! "Not smart!" I thought as I hit the brake with my foot and the horn with my hand. What he did wasn't safe and I wanted him to know I was not happy. I don't blow the horn often simply because you don't know what people will do. I've seen too many news reports of road rage and you take a chance each time you honk your disapproval at someone's driving. I watched to make sure the driver wouldn't turn around but I'm not sure he even knew what he did wrong.
Continuing down the road I reflected on the need for honking, the need for all of us to be told when we do something wrong, unsafe, not smart. Similar to hesitating to honk we are often too timid, concerned with the other's reaction, offending and ticking off the receiver to give a reprimand when it's appropriate.
The truth is that each of us makes mistakes, could do a better job at times, don't look before we leap, and need to be held accountable for the consequences of our decisions. It's never fun to realize we did something wrong. Too often we equate mistakes and missteps with failure. However, it doesn't have to be this way. Correction, discipline aren't meant to keep us from trying again but to teach us a better way so that we can succeed the next time.

What We Know
What We Know –
Wisdom begins when we realize we know nothing.
Philosophers tell us that everything changes, doesn't stay the same. Mountains wear down, skies fall, mighty trees topple and the greatest among people are but a wisp of wind, sound, and fury signifying nothing.
Reducing our ego is one of the hardest wisdom disciplines. One of my favorite wisdom proverbs says; "Take compliments and criticisms with equal value." Too often we believe the good and ignore the not so good. It's easy to focus on what others like about us. We wrap ourselves in the words of friends, families, even those whose positivity drips off their tongue like poison, people who see us mere objects to use to further their objectives. Ego builds us up only to be pulled out from under us by someone with a bigger, stronger ego. We fight back and when one take on another, no one wins and out of control egos only destroy never heal.
Humility is wisdom's greatest and most difficult lesson. Saying; "No" to puffery and stroking; "Yes" to a self-awareness that leads us to a place where our egos are not bruised, or quickly heal, from a careless word, a selfish act, a purposeful plan to defame, defraud, demolish. Wisdom tells us; "Smaller egos take less time to heal because the wound isn't as big."
Socrates once said; "There is true joy (bliss) when we realize we know, and are, nothing."

P.O.S.'s –
Beth and I spent most of the day taking care of P.O.B's (Piles of Beth or Brian). It's those ever-increasing places at home that seem to collect stuff we put down when we come in the door, lay down when our hands are full, place somewhere; "only for a moment." However, before you know it a couple of months have gone by and we've continued to add, never subtract, from the piles and they seem to take over the house. So today we began tackling them, going through, getting rid of what's now not needed, putting up what is actually still useful in our lives.
As we worked from room to room we also talked about things which we could've conversed about weeks ago but hadn't. We teased each other, laughed and broached topics that were sensitive and allowed ourselves to be vulnerable, not defensive.
Wisdom tells us that our lives can quickly become P.O.S.'s (piles of stuff). They fill our minds and lives, clutter our spirits and if we're not diligent, suffocate the light by which we navigate. It's not easy to sort through the messes but living with the chaos proves much harder the longer we try and exist in the junk and confusion.

Mind Your Feet
Minding Your Feet –
Earlier today I stopped to get gas. I got out of the truck, inserted my bank card into the machine slot, chose my fuel type and began to pump. As I stood there I thought I might as well put my wallet back in my bag and began stepping over the hose which was connected to my truck and the pump. As I tried this, which I've done dozens if not hundreds of times, somehow one foot or both feet got caught on the hose and down I went. WHACK! right onto the cement. It happened so fast I don't remember much but I must've screamed when I started to fall because a kind gentleman stopped to see if I was ok. I assured him I was although I wasn't actually sure. My arm was hurting but my pride was hurting more at that particular moment. I finished getting gas, gingerly climbed back in the truck and have been nursing my right arm, which took the brunt of the fall, ever since.
It was a painful reminder not to get ahead of ourselves as we walk the road of life. When I went to put my stuff in the cab I just assumed I had cleared the hose instead of looking to make sure. Minding our feet is imperative if we want to stay upright, keep going and make it home.

Space in Between
Space in Between –
It is such difficult discipline; pausing before you react. A man I had worked with in jail has popped up at twice at a rehabilitation center where I lecture. It's common to see the men I work with in one place again in another. Many who have addictions have a difficult road staying clean and multiple jail sentences and rehab stays are not out of the ordinary.
He spotted me before I saw him and made a beeline to where I was to say he was there. I asked him the question' "What are you doing here?" and before he could answer I said; "Have you been making good choices?" He shook his head no and we chatted a little about what he's been up to. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to talk with him following the lecture due to the tight schedule they keep at the rehab center.
In all my classes and one on one sessions, I talk about the discipline of; "the space in between." It is the wisdom lesson that when something happens, an action, we have space between and before we give a reaction. The smaller the space between action and reaction the greater chance our reaction will be negative. The larger the space in between the greater the chance our reaction produces a positive result.
In a world where people too often speak and act without thinking, we are reaping a local, national and global community torn apart. We don't stop and reflect on how what we say, what we do, has positive and too often negative consequences.

Old Dogs, New Tricks
Old Dog, New Trick –
I just witnessed our Siberian Husky, Trooper, suppress a desire he almost always embraces. Our property is next to a piece of property which belongs to a church. A family was at the church and a little girl bolted out a door and began to run across the property. Trooper was a mere 30 feet from the little one and I ran towards him as soon as I spied the girl. I knew what was going to happen.
I knew what was going to happen. Trooper was going to run after her and most likely scare her, trip her, run all around her, sniffing, wanting to play. He has done it before, more than a few times, and it's always frightening for all involved. I yelled; "Trooper, no! No! No!" He never moved, was perfectly still and when I called to him, he looked at the running girl, paused, and came trotting over to me. I praised him for being a good dog and he'll have a special treat with his dinner tonight.
The old saying goes; "You can't teach an old dog a new trick." This may be true but I witnessed today a dog who's learned a lesson he's been taught for a long time and it seems to finally have sunk in.
Perhaps there's hope for me and others as well.

Intersections of Life
Intersections of Life –
On my way to the county jail, there is a long stretch of highway that has only one traffic signal which hangs about midway to the jail. There are flashing lights which tell drivers to prepare to stop. Each time I approach this intersection I begin to look for the flashing lights. I know that if I get past the sign with the flashing lights I don't have to worry about the traffic signal turning red and having to stop. This afternoon I approached the sign, it never flashed me and I was able to sail on through the traffic light.
After finishing my class at the jail I had to run and errand and I turned on the road which would take me to my destination. It wasn't long before some flashing lights caught my attention. They were warning me of construction ahead and to be ready for delays. It only seemed like forever until I was able to make it through this particular intersection.
It seems the road of life has a way of balancing out. For every unexpected joy, there is sorrow. For unplanned blessings there are hardships. For every intersection you sail through another one will take and test your patience.
The secret isn't figuring out how to hit all the lights green, non-flashing, but to accept both with equal measure. It's not an easy discipline to learn but one which will relieve much suffering.
Memories and a Christmas Cactus
Memories and a Christmas Cactus –
My riend Mary, before she passed away, gave us a Christmas cactus. This year it's finally bloomed. The simple beauty reminds me of her. My Facebook places memories on my start page and two days ago they were of the winter we brought Mary up to our house in Pennsylvania and she stayed with us for the winter. Mary, it seems, is making her presence known to us this Christmas season.
My wife had a birthday yesterday and we had a fun time joking she was rolling down the hill to a big age milestone. We also talked seriously of life and its quick passing. Death, whenever it comes, is closer than ever.
Wisdom teaches us to number our days. This is not a morbid discipline but a joyous one. Each day is precious, not one is to be taken for granted. We are to enjoy and embrace every day as a gift, like the Christmas cactus blooms and pictures which seem from a lifetime ago.
Blessed or Cursed
Life is never predictable.
I was talking with someone yesterday about having "blinders" on when it comes to certain people. Some folks we see in a mostly positive light. We emphasize the good, minimize the bad, expect the best and see their potential. For others it's the opposite. We are blind to their goodness. They are viewed by us in a mostly negative way. We don't expect the best, focus on their weaknesses, anticipate what and how badly they'll mess up, hurt us and take advantage of our generosity.
Blinders often come from good relationships or broken ones. We put them on and rarely question if we see the whole picture as it pertains to certain people, cultures and our worldview.
The discipline of viewing life as blessed rather than cursed can be one of the hardest and most important wisdom lessons we learn and put into practice. This is true especially when our journey has been difficult and we've seen "more than our share" of heartache, pain and loss. To look for the good, the beautiful, the "miracle" of everyday life influences each breath and every moment.
@BrianLoging (Twitter)
The Space Between
Some people drive us crazy! Others makes us want to put our fists, or heads, through a wall. For whatever reason there are folks who rub us the wrong way, frustrate, anger and cause us to react in ways we don't want to or would normally do. However, we find our words and actions harsh, brash, careless, harmful and detrimental to connection and harmony.
It is especially important, as we deal with people with whom we struggle finding common ground, to remember the discipline of the "space in between". This practice centers on the realization that there can be, should be, a pause between what happens to us and our response. This gap is used to measure our words, evaluate our actions and choose those which do not harm ourselves or the other.
A lesson wisdom tries to teach us that, if learned, will save us a great deal of regret and heartache.

If you think Sam Burgess is doing it tough at the Rugby World Cup, spare a thought for fellow former league convert Nick Zisti.
A member of St George's 1996 grand final line-up, Zisti is the only player in history to have made his professional rugby union debut at a World Cup.
At Twickenham against Jonny Wilkinson's England no less.
"I felt like I was running around like a headless chook. I didn't know what I was doing," Zisti told AAP as he recalled his incredible tale from 16 years ago.
Zisti was playing on the wing for Italy and the 67-7 loss was just the start of his baptism by fire.
In his next game he came up against the All Blacks and Jonah Lomu in full flight.
"Unbelievable," he said.
"They just killed us. They put a hundred points on us.
"All I can remember is running back and forth trying to cover tackle.
"I saved a couple of tries, I remember I tackled Jonah once."
It was the highlight of his 1999 World Cup experience.
"I've never seen a more phenomenal athlete than Jonah live. He was incredible," he said.
Zisti empathises with Burgess, the South Sydney grand final hero dropped this week for England's final match against Uruguay, a scapegoat for the hosts' embarrassing elimination before the knockout stages.
But his own introduction to the 15-man game was even more of a whirlwind.
After scoring 19 tries in 18 games for the Dragons from 1994-96, then being the Hunter Mariners' highest pointscorer in their only season in 1997 and finishing his NRL career at Cronulla, Zisti joined the Bradford Bulls in the English Super League.
But just a handful of games into his three-year deal, he received a note at Bradford asking him to call the Italian Rugby Union, who needed players for their impending entry to the Six Nations.
"They flew me over from Leeds to Rome – hush hush – on our day off and I was pretty much sold from the moment I arrived at the airport," said Zisti, who qualified through his Italian grandfather Nicola.
"The weather was better and there were people riding around on scooters."
Bulls coach Matt Elliott granted Zisti a release in March of 1999 and he immediately went into World Cup camp, then straight into Italy's probables side against the possibles.
Then smack bang into England at Twickenham.
"It was surreal," he said.
"I think they thought because I was physically stronger coming from league, and that I'd played in big games, but they actually never saw a tape of me before I went there.
"It was massive news in Italy. I couldn't read the articles but most of the articles were saying: where does this guy come from?
"It was like I was an alien from out of space who was just flown into the Italian national team."
After struggling with injury and losing his place in the Test team, Zisti regained it after bagging a 90-metre try in Rugby Roma's big win over the Michael Cheika-coached high flyers from Padova.
As fate would have it, he returned for the Azzuri's Six Nations clash with England.
Marking up in the centres on Mike Catt, Zisti did enough to retain his place for one last Test against France.
"That was probably the highlight of my career," he said.
"It was at Stade de France, the soccer World cup was the year before and I was sitting in the change rooms thinking how Ronaldo had been in there."
Two weeks later, Zisti broke his leg as Rugby Roma went on to win their first Super 10 title in years before going broke.
Spurning an offer to join Racing Club in Paris, Zisti returned home to Sydney after speaking with Cheika to play for Randwick.
It was not to be.
After 14 knee operations, he lasted one training session.
"But I feel incredibly blessed," said Zisti, son-in-law of premiership-winning NRL coach John Lang.
"When I was 15 my dream was to play under-21s for Souths and then all of this other stuff happened.
"When George Piggins approached me one day and said Souths were looking at me to play first grade I nearly fell over.
"I didn't dream of ever playing for Australia like most kids. I didn't think I was going to get past 21s to be honest.
"I was very lucky."

COMPANY NEWS; Credit Card Bill Signed by Reagan
Published: November 5, 1988
WASHINGTON, Nov. 4— President Reagan signed legislation Thursday to give consumers more and faster information about the costs of credit cards.
The bill will require banks, department stores and other credit card issuers to supply details to their customers about interest rates and other charges. The measure calls for card issuers to disclose not only the rates but also how the charges are calculated and how long a grace period is allowed before they begin to accrue.

A Chat with Diana Hufford Personal Training Sherman Oaks
What services does your business offer and what makes your business stand out from the competition?
Slow motion high intensity strength training is one of the safest, most effective and most time efficient ways to workout. Training sessions are 20 minutes long, but your body feels like it did much more and you get the rest of the week to recover and do the things you love to do outside of the gym!
Exercise is challenging. How do you keep clients motivated and engaged?
I like to vary the exercises we do from time to time and I have a gentle yet firm way of pushing people. Your body can always do more than your mind thinks you can. I also provide nutritional support as needed at no additional charge.
What was the inspiration to start or run this business?
I've been an athlete and a runner my whole life. When I was running my second marathon, I developed knee and hip pain that almost kept me from finishing the race. Shortly after, my best friend turned me on to slow motion high intensity strength training and it healed my injuries and changed my life.
What do you love most about your job?
I LOVE it when a client tells me that their clothes are fitting better or they can now stow their luggage in the overhead compartment without assistance or that their back pain is lessened. That's what keeps me doing what I do.

So many times i have found myself on cross roads. they are not dead ends , they are not T junctions either. they are just that – cross roads.
worse still , they never seem to have a marking or a general hint of a direction on them.
i am not trying to build an analogy to .. in life you would find yourself choosing one of the two paths . an easier one would tempt you , the difficult one would seem challenging. more often than not , you would reach where you are supposed to reach , once you choose the path that you are supposed to choose… or something to that effect.
yes .. i am NOT saying that. however close to how i feel and believe in the journey of life getting defined by those mind boggling mix of words . i ll still maintain . all i am saying is – i dont even get to see a marking on these 'many directions' that i can possibly take to classify them as 'the easy way out' or 'the road less traveled' .
i wish i could somhow decrypt the various cues that i guess life keeps throwing at me – when these 'out of the blue' developments come surging at me.
its like i am sipping my coffee , doing my own thing and there it is . a phone call. that just might change where i would be the very next day. and some years down the line.
like i take a trip to some place , dreaming and hoping of a life that i ve planned . and am back soon to where i was . oh yes, with newer hopes ( the old ones i sort of left behind ) . And humming to myself … "and what it boils down to , its going to be fine fine fine!"
does that happen with people often? i dont seem to have met such people though.
i guess i am getting in to a total talkathon here.. some people never learn the knack of talking to the point. 🙂
so long then!
