The Soul Hole. I\u2019d like to call you the Soul Hole. It\u2019s perhaps the most profound phrase by which you can describe yourself. I invite you to give me a mind that\u2019s open and a heart that\u2019s ready. I would like to end your quest for spiritual food and your pursuit of spiritual drink. I want to dig deep down into your soul. Some of this digging may either be a superficial unraveling, or a deep enough digging to uncover the secrets you have kept hidden in your heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have you noticed that what you see or hear is not necessarily the case? In fact, what you conclude from what you see and hear may not be the case at all. Some time ago, a German scientist dug down fifty meters to find some metal below the earth. The German Institute of Science and Technology promptly concluded that ancient Germans, 5,000 years ago, had a telephone network. The Russians were not impressed by this conclusion, so they asked their own scientists to dig down one hundred meters. They found some glass there, and the Russian Institute of Science and Technology decided that ancient Russians, 10,000 years ago, had a fiber-optic network. The Americans were not easily taken by this new finding either. They too had their scientists dig down two hundred meters and found . . . nothing. They promptly concluded that ancient Americans, 20,000 years ago, had a cellular mobile phone network!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The assumption I\u2019m going to make is this: you\u2019d like to dig deep down, examine your life and arrive at the appropriate conclusions, whether impressive or not. Is that a safe assumption on my part about you? If you honestly examine your life, you\u2019ll realize that there is a spiritual hunger and a thirst inside, that you\u2019d like to see filled and quenched. The complexity of the problem points to a hole in your soul that keeps on leaking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Secret Features<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, let me address some features<\/em> of your soul hole. Are you silently, even secretly hungering and thirsting after things that cannot satisfy?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 You hunger and thirst for peace<\/em>\u2014internal peace\u2014and you cannot find it. There are too many anxieties and fears in your life: fear of the future, fear of the unknown, fear of defeat, fear of failure, fear of bankruptcy, fear of a downward-spiraling working situation or fear of a broken relationship. There is also; fear of tomorrow, the fear of today, even the fear of yesterday and finally the fear of judgment. You wish you could possess a peace that the world cannot give. If this is your soul secret, keep reading or register on this Web site, and I\u2019ll give you a free and permanent solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 You may carry a thirst for meaning<\/em>\u2014the meaning of life. You are not sure what life is about. This morning did you get up, and wonder why you exist? What you are doing here? Where you are going? Where did you come from? You go through the same motions and emotions, and one day you will die. You wonder what the next life looks like. If you wish you could find the meaning of life and perhaps even the key to the next life, you have a soul hole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 You are hungering and thirsting for love<\/em>. \u201cUnconditional love.\u201d Love that has no strings attached, similar to the love you experienced during your first romance or early years of your marriage. Remember when love made your heart skip\u2014not skip beats but actually skip steps? You wish that original love could be awakened. This would be marvelous. Instead you\u2019ve turned into a crusty, selfish, hard person. That\u2019s because you have tried to stifle your hole in the soul and have the need to pursue love again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 You may be hungering and thirsting for forgiveness<\/em> when the guilt lingers. Things that you have done in the past, or are choosing to do in the present haunt your conscience. You have managed to keep others from finding out about your secret life, but your heart bothers you and your mind condemns you. You have succeeded in suppressing guilt well inside your soul, but you wish you could start again or feel clean again. This is due to the hole in your soul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 You are hungry and thirsty for hope<\/em> since life seems hopeless. The lights have gone out. The questions, the demands, and the needs of life seem confusing, and the options are making you wonder if hope is true and possible at all. This is one of the main questions all human beings ask: is there hope? What can I look forward to? These type of questions reveal a secret in your system\u2014a soul hole that needs to be fixed and filled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The hole in your soul is a stubborn secret which refuses to budge. The strategies you pursue are not going to really help you. Some time ago in Hong Kong, a tourist bought a hand-fan for relief from heat and humidity. She paid five U.S. dollars instead of the five Hong Kong dollars, which is about seven or eight times what local people paid. When she waved the fan in front of her face, it broke immediately. The woman immediately went back into the shop to exchange her broken fan. The shopkeeper said, \u201cNo, we cannot take goods that have already been sold.\u201d She was able to convince him to sell her a second fan for three dollars. Apparently he showed much reluctance in selling it for a much lower price. The tourist again began to wave the fan, and within minutes the second fan broke too. With anger, she marched back into the store and created an ugly tourist scene, and demanded another fan for free. The storekeeper asked, \u201cMadam, how do you use your fan?\u201d She demonstrated her cooling strategy. He then replied, \u201cHa-ha, that\u2019s not how we do it in Hong Kong. We hold the fan upright, straight in front of our face and wave our face at the fan.\u201d The soul hole shows up the stubborn secret reality of every strategy you try to fill it as deficient. You end up fooling yourself. At times, you wonder if you have been attempting the wrong strategies. As you shake your head in dismay, you realize you are sweating further as you lose more of life. Would you like your soul-hole fixed?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Strategic Failures<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My wife and I were in Montego Bay, Jamaica in the Caribbean where I was offered an expensive Swiss watch look-alike for $45. Upon examining the watch, I told the vendor that I could get the same watch in Lagos, Nigeria for $8. He immediately replied, \u201cSir, the watch you get in Lagos, Nigeria for $8 is a fake-fake. The one I am selling is a genuine-fake because it has the words \u2018Swiss Made\u2019 written on it. That watch is a fake-fake; this watch is a genuine-fake.\u201d The only difference between the two kinds of \u201cfakes\u201d is one being more expensive than the other!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you type the phrase \u201cthe soul hole\u201d on the search engine of your heart, you\u2019ll find dozens of pages and hundreds of entries talking about the failed strategies you have pursued in order to fill your soul hole. Let me expand on a couple of these fake-fake and genuine-fake strategies for you and examine them very briefly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fake-fake Strategy: One<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One fake-fake strategy is the pursuit of stuff\u2014possessions and things<\/strong>. Stuff to drive with, stuff to live inside, old stuff or new stuff. The only thing that bothers you is that others would like to help themselves to your stuff while you\u2019re sleeping. Unfortunately, there\u2019s no security system that\u2019ll keep you from being stuffed into a coffin or a crematorium some day. Then all of your stuff will be sold off in estate sales, garage sales and antique markets where other people can buy your stuff to add to their stuff. Wealth and possessions and things are fake-fake strategies to fill the soul hole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fake-fake Strategy: Two<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another fake-fake strategy is pleasure<\/strong>. The pursuit of pleasure consumes many, many people. We find pleasure from many sources\u2014both good and bad, sanctioned and unsanctioned, or right and wrong sources. The right sources for pleasure could be any object in God-made creation or man-made creativity. Wrong sources for pleasure are every where to be found. Filth that comes across the pages of your mind and the computer are tempting you to engage and indulge. The problem with the pleasure philosophy is that it provides the benefits right away but extracts a cost over the long term. In fact if you pursue pleasure as the guiding principle of your life, you need to be able to distinguish between price and cost. The price of pleasure is far less than the cost of pleasure, especially if you pick it up from the wrong sources. Pleasure is a fake-fake strategy in attempting to fill the soul hole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some time ago, two thieves planned, connived and executed a flawless robbery. They broke into a hotel in Oslo, Norway where the fine masterpieces of Edward Munch, the Father of Expressionism, were on display. Or so they thought. Seemingly a first-class robbery, the two made off with . . . worthless photocopies. An Oslo museum which once featured Edward Munch had been victimized earlier by thieves with the originals stolen and eventually destroyed. Upon hearing of that robbery, the hotel manager had replaced all his originals with worthless photocopies! Clearly, lost photocopies are worthless when the original is preserved. Your pursuits may resemble the activities of the hotel thieves as seen in your acquisition, your grabbing, and yes, your stealing. You plan, connive and execute so well, but your best work evaporates into vacuous, worthless nothings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Genuine-Fake Strategy: One<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What about genuine-fake strategies?<\/strong> They are a little bit more sophisticated, expensive and intensive. Using knowledge as your means to fill the hole in your heart is a genuine fake strategy. There are all kinds of knowledge: general knowledge, philosophical knowledge, scientific knowledge, religious knowledge, technical knowledge and mystical knowledge. If you have a problem with knowledge, I have a problem with you. Someone once said, \u201cThe only people who have a problem with knowledge are college students. If you think the problem of knowledge is too expensive for you, try the cost of ignorance.\u201d However, knowledge is not good for results. It is necessary for process, but not sufficient to fill the hole in your soul. Philosophical knowledge, for instance, will give you the ability to ask the right questions, but it will not give you the right answers. Religious knowledge is like putting water into your car when you need petrol or gasoline. Scientific knowledge is good for experiments that are repeatable in controlled environments in empirically observable situations, but your soul hole defies science. What about mystical knowledge? In essence mysticism says you cannot recommend one solution to another person because every thing is so private and ends up being of no help to the rest of us. The limitations of knowledge is that it is good for process, but not adequate for result. What you want is necessary knowledge that can be sufficiently available to all, acceptable to all, applicable to all without cost, simply given and received. Knowledge, by itself, is a genuine-fake strategy for the hole in your soul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Genuine-Fake Strategy: Two<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Morality is a genuine-fake strategy<\/strong>. Morality could be both positive\u2014doing good works; and negative\u2014refraining from doing bad things. I like positive morality. We need and want good works in order to address the many needs of the world. You should pursue good works because you can help your neighbor down the road, down the street, across the world and across the seas. However, good works are not good as an approach to fill the hole in your soul. Why? We don\u2019t know how many good works are needed to fix and fill the hole in the soul. Good works cannot secure the heart hole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An Australian professor set a single condition to pass his course: His students had to make a perfect one-hundred\u00a0on the final test, to merely pass. He distributed the dreaded exam and waited for the students to\u00a0finish. A clever student turned in his paper along with one hundred dollars with a scribble, \u201cOne dollar\u00a0per point.\u201d The professor returned the graded test the following week with the mark of 36 and $64\u00a0change. You see, a genuine-fake strategy may earn you a 99, but it\u2019s still not 100. A fake-fake strategy\u00a0may earn you 36, but both 36 and 99 are failures. The question is rather clear: Is there a solution, a\u00a0genuinely true solution that can be offered to you to simply receive? Is there an answer key I can\u00a0recommend to you that is uncomplicated and true, straightforward and right? With much delight, I can\u00a0and I will.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
