It is best to study from a teacher of ANY subject, as long as you focus on the teachings and NOT on the teacher. All of the real important answers to life's questions lie within your own mind.

A person who doesn't dress well, who doesn't spend time and attention with their physical being, has a very loose being.

Karma is the sum total of who you are, everything you've been. The mind state you are in is karmic. Meaning, it's related by a causal chain of existences, of moments, of particles of timelessness.

Everything has a nothingness. On the other side of physical reality, there is another world, and in that world, everything is something else.

In sanskrit they say: "Tat twam asi" - thou art that. You are God. The bubble of your awareness bursts and you're flooded with immortality.

Without that poise and balance and gentle humor and caring sense, nothing happens at all. It's just egotism and vanity and jealousy and possessiveness.

Kundalini is almost a misleading word, unless you define it as broadly as I do.
