Knowledge and power doesn't come from an entity, it comes from within yourself. What can these things tell you, to put five bucks on Snowflake in the third race?

You don't really have a choice. You are alive and you will die.

Salvakalpa samadhi is absorption in eternity to the point where there is no real concept of self but there's still a karmic chain. Nirvikalpa samadhi is absorption in nirvana; concepts of self and no-self go away completely.

Life is perfect, it glows.

Through the practice of concentration and various techniques, we silence the mind and we enter into a flow of perfect light. We go outside of the parameters of mind and thought and experience nirvana.

I think the most miraculous thing is learning. I get out of the way and let the students learn. Then you get to watch this amazing thing happen.

So the intelligent use of power is to never interfere with anyone else's success. Use the power you get to just be more successful yourself.
