Most people abuse power. They use power to dominate others. They use power to destroy others. Ultimately when you do this, you lose it.
You can take power from others; you can steal it. It is not a very high-grade power. It will give you a certain amount of access to a better life; but it corrupts the individual.
The person who takes power will never be happy with those things they gain. They have lost their essential balance and innocence. And without innocence, nothing can further, as they say in the I Ching.
It is silly to drain others; for when you drain others, you also pick up their vibratory force.
People who want to go to power places all of the time and want to be around powerful people, they don’t last long in the study.
I don’t put much stock in powers that people have to hurt others, in sorcery and all this nonsense. There are murders and there are dictators. That is just a part of life. The intelligent use of power in yoga can assist you avoiding that side of humanity.
Angry people, unhappy people, people that seek to injure others, these people all have something in common. They waste energy. They don’t conserve it and they don’t know how to increase it.
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.
When you manipulate others your attention level drops and you become prey, for you have dropped to the plane of manipulation.
Jealousy, anger, fear – these are ridiculous emotions that drain your power. You need to control them by being content, trusting that life knows what is best, accepting with an even mind whatever is presented to you.
How do you overcome the negative karmas and problems and misery that occur to people who abuse power? You stop abusing power.
Some people travel to other dimensions in their astral bodies when they meditate.
The world is wonderful. It is beautiful when you are in a correct level of attention.
In lower levels things are dark, gray, experiences are shallow. You become alienated from those around you.
When you go into the other worlds, when you go into the luminous dimensions, it’s very different than here. You really have to have your act wired. You have to be very strong. Your mind has to be in the right shape. Otherwise, when you get out there, what you will see will drive you mad.
If you go too far, it’ll blow your mind. I mean it’s strong out there. If you go out too far beyond the bounds of attention, there are things in the universe, in the universes of mind, in the inner worlds, it’s best sometimes not to deal with unless you’re very, very far along.
The sights of infinity can be too strong. They can scorch the soul. It’s best to take infinity on a little at a time.
I suggest that you do not get involved in channeling, tapping into spirits not physically present. Your own mind has the ability to properly reflect and determine what is correct and what is not.
Today it is very popular to do a thing we call channeling. People are trying to channel entities and have these beings come through them. In my estimation this is downright ridiculous and dangerous.
Don’t get involved with non-physical beings. This current pastime, this rage, is dangerous. Many of these people who are channeling entities are going to become very sick, physically and mentally.
