In 2008 the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) won both the presidency and a small majority in parliament in an election deemed generally free and fair by domestic and international observers; John Evans Atta Mills was inaugurated president in January 2009. There were instances in which elements of the security forces acted independently of government authorities. Human rights problems included the following: use of excessive force by police, which resulted in deaths and injuries; ethnic killings and vigilante violence; harsh and life-threatening prison conditions; police impunity; prolonged pretrial detention; arbitrary arrest of journalists; corruption in all branches of government; violence against women and children, including female genital mutilation (FGM); societal discrimination against women, persons with disabilities, gays and lesbians, and persons with HIV/AIDS; trafficking in women and children; ethnic discrimination and politically motivated violence; and child labor, including forced child labor. RESPECT FOR HUMAN RIGHTS Section 1 Respect for the Integrity of the Person, Including Freedom From: a. Arbitrary or Unlawful Deprivation of Life There were no reports that the government or its agents committed politically motivated killings; however, use of excessive force by security forces resulted in the deaths of several armed criminal suspects and other persons during the year.

  • Health and Healing
    ECK WISDOM © ECKANKAR 2020 droits Tous réservés on Health and Healing EXCERPTS HAROLD KLEMP THE PURPOSE OF HEALING The purpose of healing transcends the cure of a bodily condition. There is a spiritual reason the illness occurred. The process of spiritual healing teaches us something about ourselves we didn’t know before. When the eyes are in trouble, we have to ask, What am I not seeing about my spiritual life that is causing me difficulty with my eyesight? You see, the approach assumes responsibility for whatever is wrong. Once we’re willing to shoulder the blame for our thoughts and actions, the inner force can begin to heal us, even as our understanding of the causes becomes known to us through our dreams or other means. It’s pointless to debate the merits of medical doctors versus chiropractors or herbalists. Your karma differs from that of other people. You as an individual have to find the healing modality that is right for you. Even that can change with time. Your state of consciousness today is not the same as it used to be or it will be in two weeks or a couple of years from now. As karma surfaces, it works out through the weakest point in our body. As quickly as we can release our attachment to whatever is hurting us, we allow the karma to pass off quickly, and our health stays balanced. The key to stay in tune with Divine Spirit. Trough the Spiritual Exercises of ECK, you can be aware of the hints as nudges and whisperings of the Holy spirit as It tries to guide you to the next step to take at any point.

  • Criticism and Study of the Astrology of the Eckankar Based on the Teachings of Islam1 Dr
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL & SCIENCE EDUCATION 2017, VOL. 12, NO. 4, 817-840 OPEN ACCESS Criticism and study of the astrology of the Eckankar based on the teachings of Islam1 Dr. Abdolreza Mahmoudi 1*, Dr. Maryam Shamsaie 2, Hashem Kakaei 3 1-Assistant professor of Islamic Education Department, School of Medicine, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran. 2-Assistant professor of Islamic Education Department, School of Medicine, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran. 3-Instructor of Islamic Education Department, School of Medicine, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran. ABSTRACT The subject of astrology in the School of Eckankar has two main bases of Karma and reincarnation. Karma or the very law of action and reaction can be called the moral basis of the Eckankar. The totality of this law is accepted by the reason and tradition. But yet what casts doubt and therefore a serious damage to this law would be a tight connection between Karma and Incarnation in the School of Eckankar. This is because the ECK believes that Karma is incarnated through the transmigration, and moves from a birth to another one and this long way is continued up to the constellations. Therefore, in this writing and while explaining the Karma and accepting it in its totality, various typed of incarnation are explained ,and then it will be studied and criticized based on the teachings of Islam. KEYWORDS ARTICLE HISTORY astrology, Karma, transmigration. Received 3 April 2017 Revised 29 April 2017 Accepted 4 May 2017 Introduction The Sanskrit word “Karma” means “work”. This word first appeared in the “Rig Veda” hymns, (Tulle, 2007), and was used as the religious work and especially offering, and means so to say a law which determines the outcome of man’s deeds, and (ibid, p.310) brings about the cycle of reappearing.

  • Basic Beliefs of Eckankar
    Basic Beliefs of Eckankar Harold Klemp, the spiritual leader of Eckankar, describes the basic beliefs of Eckankar as follows: he teachings of ECK define the nature of Soul more carefully than do other current religions. Each person is Soul, a particle of God sent into the lower worlds (including earth) to gain spiritual experience. Purified by the spiritual exercises, he comes into contact with the Holy Spirit. His goal is spiritual freedom in this lifetime, after which he becomes a Co-worker with God, both here and in the next world. Karma and reincarnation are primary beliefs. Key to the ECK teachings is the Mahanta, the Living ECK Master. He has the special ability to act as both Inner and Outer Master for ECK students. He is the prophet of Eckankar, given respect but not worship. He teaches the sacred name of God, HU, which lifts one spiritually into the Light and Sound of God, the ECK. The ECK (the Holy Spirit) purifies one of karma (sin), making it possible for him to accept the full love of God in this lifetime. Then he gains wisdom, charity, and freedom. Personal experience with the Light and Sound of God is the cornerstone of Eckankar. Of all the religions on earth today, Eckankar offers the most direct teachings on the Light and Sound of God. These twin pillars are missing in whole or in part from the rest. People who truly find these two aspects of God undergo a complete spiritual change. Life becomes fresh and new again, as it was in early childhood.

  • The Theology of Eckankar: Its Critique and Study Based on the Islamic Teachings
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL & SCIENCE EDUCATION 2017, VOL. 12, NO. 4, 799-816 OPEN ACCESS The theology of Eckankar: Its critique and study based on the Islamic teachings Dr. Abdolreza Mahmoudi Assistant professor of Islamic Education Department, School of Medicine, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran ABSTRACT The present paper deals with theology from the point of view of the school of Eckankar and its critique based on the Islamic teachings. Three major topics are probed into in the school of Eckankar, i.e. the definition of religion, the origin of religion, and exclusiveness. On the topic of the definition of religion, Eckankar essentially regards as a religious experience in its common sense in the western culture. Therefore religion is an experience that the individual passes in him, and observing rituals such as going to the church are not regarded as faithfulness. From the point of view of Islamic teachings such an attitude causes the reduction of the values of the epistemic role of religion, while in Islam the epistemic aspects are very strong. On the topic of the origin of religion, once again the Eckankar School regards religion as the individual’s personal experiences .Therefore, based on the multiplicity of the individual’s religious experiences; religions will be multiple as well. Islamic teachings regard personal experiences as based on divine nature, but does not agree with the religious multiplicity as multiplicity in the legitimacy as regarded by the Eckankar School. The concluding part of this of this paper is the topic of religious exclusiveness of which the Eckankar School is a fervent advocate, but yet there are many contradictory points in the contents of the speeches of the supporters of this school.

But some people are more open to the Light of ECK than others. They are more spiritually attuned beings. Walt Disney was one such individual. He was an artist in a world of moneymakers. Disney’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, the first full-length cartoon feature, marked a turning point in film animation. Up to this point, cartoons were very short, running only a few minutes in length. Disney was faced with the creative challenge of making a cartoon that was ten times longer than usual. He had a good enough understanding of human nature to know he would run into resistance to something new. In film there was a growing trend toward longer presentations. But a cartoon?
