It is most important to have time alone. To be alone is not to be alone. It is only possible to truly feel immortality when we are by ourselves.

In the beginning, when you are meditating, just ignore thought. Shine it on. Then after you are comfortable sitting there, try selectively eliminating negative thoughts, thoughts that agitate the mind.

You identify with your self. You have a personal history. You have commitments. There are things that you want to experience and other things that you want to avoid.

The experiences you'll have, the people you'll love, the jobs, the joys, the sorrows, the way you'll die. It is all predestined, unless you will a change.

Unfortunately, in self-discovery, you get the culty types who want the father figure or mother figure to tell them everything to do. They don't want to do any work. They want to hang on your energy and try to drain it.

In the West people are basically oblivious to power, solstices, enlightenment and everything that matters.

Focus your attention around the naval area, feel that spot. Visualize it. Do whatever it takes. When thoughts come in and out of your mind, pay no attention. You just stay right on that spot!
