AJWAIN Seed: This seed is quite famous in Egypt as it has many healing powers
Ajwain probably originated in Egypt and the eastern Mediterranean area. It is very widely cultivated in black soil particularly along the riverbank in Egypt and many other countries like India, Iran and Afghanistan. Ajwain seeds consist of moisture, protein, fat, minerals, fiber, carbohydrates, calcium, phosphorus, iron, carotene, thiamin, riboflavin and niacin.
Ajwain is also useful in toothache, earache and rheumatism, as we can use the oil as eardrops and use the oil as a massage for neuralgia.
Also in pharingitis, an infusion of seeds mixed with common salt is an effective gargle in a sore and congested throat and hoarse ness of the voice due to colds or shouting.
In an acute attack of common cold or migraine headache, put ajwain powder in a thin cloth and smell this frequently. It gives tremendous symptomatic relief according to some ayurvedic experts.
Culinary Uses
In the kitchen, ajwain seeds are almost exclusively used in Indian cuisine. They are mainly found in pulse dishes such as dhal, as well as vegetable dishes and pickles. The sharp flavour of ajwain has the ability to cut through rich flavours and densely spiced foods.
Ajwain goes well with fish and curries. It has a strong aroma when crushed. Otherwise, the seeds have little aroma. It has hot taste and burning feeling on the tongue. Ajwain is a good digestive. Mixed with buttermilk it is a good anti-acidic agent.
Add a pinch to rice as it is cooking, for aroma and flavor. Ajwain can be combined with other spices such as turmeric, paprika, cumin, black pepper, fennel and coriander

Abraham: NO GAIN IN PAIN - Esther & Jerry Hicks
Abraham - Source translated by Esther Hicks - explain their teachings regarding empowerment, which center on learning to follow Inner Guidance rather than any outside authority, and recognizing that this guidance comes to us in the form of our emotions.
Further, since the Universe is truly benevolent and unconditionally loving, Abraham teaches that if we seek joy and do our best to feel as good as we can in every moment, then we will align with Infinite Divine Intelligence.
In this workshop excerpt, Abraham elaborates on this concept by focusing on the misconception of many that in order to achieve gain we must suffer pain, and that only through struggle can we be free.
In doing so Abraham helps us to remember that our enlightenment and success in life comes not from ignoring our emotional guidance, but through ease and allowing.
Recorded in Albuquerque, New Mexico on August 28th, 2007.
For nearly 25 years Esther & Jerry Hicks have produced books, audio recordings and videos based on the Teachings of Abraham, and their latest book, entitled "The Vortex", is currently on the New York Times bestseller list.
Esther explains that when she speaks for Abraham, she is interpreting blocks of thought from Non-Physical Source Energy - which she also sometimes identifies as her "Soul". Esther doesn't use the word "channeling" to describe her process, since she is not in a trance and is not hearing a voice in her head. Rather, she has trained herself to verbally interpret the same unerring Inner Guidance that is available to all of us.
For more information, please view our YouTube video entitled "Abraham Explains Who They Are", or go to http://www.abraham-hicks.com and listen to the audio entitled "Introduction to Abraham", and explore the wealth of other information available there..

Which song is it at the end? :)
@TheDeenaG The song is "If You Want It (It Can Happen) by Francine Jarry, from the CD "Joy, Joy, Joy" - available through Abraham-Hicks.
Although I'm new to Abraham I find myself perceiving life on such a profound truth of love and realization. Can some one enlighten me more on who Abraham-Hicks is?
SlimD11: Esther and Jerry Hicks are best-selling authors who have been conducting "Law of Attraction" workshops for almost 25 years. Their work is based on the teachings of "Non-Physical Source Energy" whom they call "Abraham" and who communicates blocks of thought to Esther which she translates. Although some call this "channeling", Esther and Jerry do not. They have nothing to join except a mailing list, have no interest in "followers", and don't even sponsor an Internet discussion forum.
