Start meditating with your eyes open, focusing as a warm-up, then focus on a chakra, then just let go and merge. Don't sit there and think or move into sleepy states of awareness, but move into high-powered states of attention.

Perception is, in essence, who we are. We are what we perceive. What we perceive defines who we are.

There's a place where everything comes together and where it's all the same. That state of mind, in which all things are the same, is the state of mind of Tantric Zen.

Smile sometimes when things aren't going well, and maybe realize when they aren't going well, they are.
