Self-discovery is a very advanced art. What we're doing basically is screwing around with what you're made up of. We're taking awarenesses, feelings, ideas and impressions and changing them.

When you go into samadhi there is no breath at all. The kundalini is perfectly stabilized. Usually it stabilizes in the solar plexus area.

Nirvana is a state of perpetual bliss and ecstasy, unaffected by the transient ups and downs of its own creations.

People who are drawn to meditation have had lots of incarnation in the world of experience, and we know the score. We know that experience is great, but it's not enough.

Flaky devotionalism, bowing and scraping and sucking up to the teacher is very phony. It is counterproductive to enlightenment and spiritual development. What is necessary is mutual respect.

If you choose to draw from the inner well of free will, then you can make choices that are outside your current karmic patterns.

No one sees life like you do, because you are no one. You change constantly, like the light outside the window.
