Spiritual evolution is a movement from the states of mind that reflect life less accurately to the states of mind that reflect life more accurately.

In the Far East, studying yoga is comparable to a mixture of attending one of the best Western universities, and of being an intrepid explorer.

The level of evolution in this world is not exactly high.

Be still, Be joyous, Celebrate creation, preservation and destruction; For these are the seasons of your life: Of your knowing and being.

There are different pathways - be it Zen, tantra, karma yoga, or jnana yoga. Different ways have been devised to do the same thing for different types of people according to their temperament.

No self-effort in the direction of enlightenment is ever wasted. Even if you don't become fully enlightened in a given lifetime, you will be much happier and more aware.

There is always going to be pain. There is always going to be pleasure. But what is not always going to be there is balance, happiness. That is a personal decision.
