The way you increase your energy is by letting go, ultimately. There is something inside you that knows what it should do, and you fight it all the time.

I think it is very important to view life in terms of winning and losing until complete enlightenment has occurred.

Read books that expand you, that are bright. See films, plays, art forms that elevate your consciousness, that bring you into a sense of how beautiful this world is, how beautiful other worlds are, how beautiful nirvana, the transcendental is.

Buddhism is the study of power initially. It takes a certain amount of power to even know your potential - to have the sense that you can change the way you perceive.

Focus on beauty all day long. Realize how incredibly beautiful your life is. How incredibly beautiful it is to feel, to look around, to be, to experience all this wonder.

You have to refine your being. You have to go through all of the stages and steps of erasing yourself through service to others with purity, humility, integrity.

The essence of your awareness field definitely goes on after death. It goes through death, it goes into non-physical states for a time, and then eventually is pulled back and it reincarnates.
