Welcome to the CRADLE 2 THE GRAVE: The newly established forum that is dedicated to being a BAZAAR of sorts, for KNOWLEDGE of a plethora of idea(l)s. We, the “SAGES”, chose this name for a multi-leveled purpose.....
First, the name is a tribute to a mandate uttered by one of the greatest men in history (PBUH), and bellowed throughout the Ages:
“Seek Knowledge from the Cradle to the Grave.......”<br>
The name also serves as a more personal metaphor........
No matter how far we advance physically, mentally and spiritually, we all remain CHILDREN; of the UNIVERSE, of LIFE, and of the CREATOR. We remain “children” to the day we pass form and return to the ESSENCE, hence the title: “Cradle 2 The Grave".

1. baby’s bed: a small bed, usually on rockers, with enclosing sides, used for a baby
2. starting place: the place where something begins or develops in its early stages

This is a place designed to nurture our personal growth and development. Hopefully it will serve as a place for most to gain nourishment for the Body, Mind and Soul.
This is the Cradle–OUR CRADLE.
We bid you Welcome, and EverLasting PEACE, in every and all Univesal Languages.
DECREES OF THE CRADLE
As with the UNIVERSE itself, all things must maintain Order, in order to have balance and harmony.
These are the rules and regulations for the CRADLE:
*Always seek to make posts within the appropriate topic, and create topics within the appropriate sections. We realize that some topics may overlap in content, due to the seemingly ubiquitous nature of some topics, as well as the interconnected nature of the world in which we live. However, please strive to x-cercise best discernment in post/topic placement. In any event, the “SAGES” will monitor post/topic placement, in such a manner that ensures an efficient and fluid site.
*The INTERNET is a broad and vast megacosm of literature, idea(l)s and information. Much of that info would be a welcomed accretion to the site. However, we ask that members do their best to provide a credible source along with the documents, literature, websites, etc. that they cite, for the benefit of other members, who might wish to authenticate the merit and value of this information for themselves.
*Please refrain from disrupting the discussions in any irreverent manner. Humor and levity is most certainly welcome, as it tends to break up the monotony and adds “flavor” to what can become rather serious-minded discussions. But, we must take care that we do not allow it to become a distraction or obstruction to the site’s goals.
*Profanity is not necessarily prohibited, but please refrain from going on cursing tirades. Doing so not only darkens the atmosphere of the site, but is also counterproductive to the overall aims of the site.
*Members who intentionally and perpetually disrupt and disrespect the site and other members will be warned and/or banned.
Our motto here (as it should be in life) is: Do not abuse those who love us, and do not love those who abuse us.
*Please feel free to report any and all issues to the “SAGES” (Admins and Moderators) via Personal Message, The PROBLEM BOOK (section dedicated to issues of any/every sort), and/or e-mail, and we will work to correct all matters as swiftly as possible.
PEACE and BLESSINGS:
The SAGES.[/center]
