From my own personal encounters and studies with both Tantric and Zen Buddhist monks, I have found them to be humorous, warm, charming, and compassionate.

We are going to alter the structure of our beings and also totally change what we are. This is the possibility and inevitability that meditation offers us.

The planes of light give you the power to rise above circumstance, the power to rise above your desires and your aversions.

Compassion and empathy are not the same as feeling sorry for oneself. They are emotions that extend our perceptual ranges.

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.

It has been my experience as a teacher over the years and incarnations that what really counts are not techniques. What really counts is spirit, love. What really counts is a sense of propriety and dedication.

It is the quick path. We turn everything inside out and upside down - which is when it gets straightened out very neatly and in an orderly fashion.
