It is best to think of karma, not so much in terms of physical action, but as waveforms of vibratory energy.

It is necessary to be occupied almost all the time, to have your mind focused; otherwise, you get very spaced out. There are many variant psychic forces and powers that roam through the worlds. You can pick them up.

You're composed of an aggregate of different forms and energies, the samskaras. These are lines within your own being. When you go into samadhi, these lines dissolve gradually so you become less formed.

Examine everything that you've been taught, not simply what you've been taught in school, but the images that have been held up to you since the time of your birth.

I think one can advance faster outside a monastery if you use the experiences of daily life to advance yourself.

You've got to make a person aware of how miserable they really are and show them how happy they can be. Otherwise, why should they seek this nebulous goal called self-discovery.

The key to happiness, in my opinion, is taking the time to find out what your spirit wants you to do, and doing it.
