Tonight is not the end of the world. This is our hot tip of the evening.

Start meditating with your eyes open, focusing as a warm-up, then focus on a chakra, then just let go and merge. Don't sit there and think or move into sleepy states of awareness, but move into high-powered states of attention.

If the chi is being wasted by useless activities, emotions and associations that drain us, then we don't have enough power when it comes time to perform.

Learn not to judge your meditation. Just meditate, do your best, set a minimum period of time and meditate.

Nature soothes us. Nature heals us, and something more, the woods are a place of power.

There are worlds beyond anything you can imagine; there are joys beyond anything you have experienced. There are ecstasies that are undreamed of, I assure you.

Taoism means streching your being, becoming both a man and a woman and joining within yourself, to be the heavens themselves, to stretch your awareness beyond the breaking point until all opposites are reconciled within yourself.
