Unlike the experience of nirvana, traveling to other dimensions will not take you beyond suffering, nor will it help you experience the limitless ecstasy of creation.

In order to pass into other dimensions you need to really understand what is out there. A teacher of mysticism is able to explain how to deal with these other worlds and universes.

This moment there is all that will ever be or has ever been. All the events of all of our lives are going-on simultaneously. There is no beginning and there is no ending. There's only this moment.

As you become more aware of your own imperfections, you simultaneously become more aware of the overall perfection of the universe.

In Zen we strive to bring both the mind and the body into perfect combination, so that there is no intrinsic difference between them.

Power doesn't make you happy. Actually, power without knowledge and balance is problematic. Power is something that will automatically follow when you have knowledge. The two are really the same, in a certain sense.

In the beginning what is necessary is to feel that there is something worthwhile to be attained otherwise we won't do it.
