When you have grown accustomed to sitting and meditating, try to stop your thoughts. That's the bottom line in meditative practice.

Pain and frustration vanish in the sunlight of your smile.

In the second stage we stop thought for limited periods of time.

I would recommend, initially, if you are trying to increase your personal power level, to meditate on the navel center, not the lower two.

A good teacher will show you the ropes in the world of power. They will give you the wisdom that is necessary to be able to use power. You just don't give a kid a new Ferrari. You teach him how to drive it.

Nirvikalpa samadhi is another matter. In order to enter into nirvikalpa samadhi, you must have a great deal of humility.

Innocence does not protect you from the evil designs of others.
