In Buddhist Yoga, we refer to our mutlilife karmic traits as samskaras. They are the internal karmic patterns that make each of us who we are.

Words are deceptive. You think you understand something because it's explained to you and now you are under no obligation to do anything because you understand it.

Don't become a spiritual bigot. Don't feel that just because you meditate and you are striving for enlightenment that you are in any way superior to any other person. Be even. Be easy. You will last longer on the pathway to self-discovery.

If you are seeking power and knowledge, you need to go to places that are healthy and happy and radiant. Avoid places that aren't.

If you are afraid of someone, you immediately give them an advantage and give them entry to your awareness field.

It is not necessary to wrap people up. The reason you're doing it is because you don't have enough power. If you had enough power, you could unlock your own personal power - you wouldn't need to control others.

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.
