News!: Story of a Nun

Upon becoming a nun, Sister Mary Elizabeth has said : From then I lived like a hermit. We had two recreation times a day, about half an hour, when we could speak, otherwise you were on your own in your cell. You never worked with anybody, always on your own . I wonder if it is any where like in a Buddhist meditation retreat where one isn't encouraged to speak but meditate most of the day, either sitting or walkng.

Ghost!

What is a ghost ? Do you believe in ghost? Is there a place in religion for ghosts? Just this morning, I was discussing ghosts with some people and I recalled someone whom I know who claimed to be able to see ghosts since a very young age. A ghost is said to be the apparition of a deceased person, frequently similar in appearance to that person, and usually encountered in places she or he frequented, or in association with the person's former belongings. By that, I suppose the ghost will be a nice ghost just like the ghost portrayed by Patrick Swayze in the 1990 romantic movie of the same name which also starred Demi Moore and Whoopi Goldberg. Now, if a ghost is nice, need a person fear it? Just have a view of this video! Do people fear ghosts or do ghosts fear people? Related Post: A Ghost Story
