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.
I am a teacher because teaching allows me to observe the universe at work, that moment when wakefulness suddenly occurs.
While I am here I would like to experience as many of the beauties of the world as possible and help others to do the same.
Since there were others, a long time ago, who were kind enough to give me a hard time and allow me to study with them, I try and express the same Buddhist courtesy.
I just felt that it was my responsibility, since so many people had taken the time to help me along, to do the same for others.
I teach meditation and the pathway to enlightenment because I know that there are other people who, like i did a long time ago and continue to, want to climb that mountain to the highest light.
I personally don’t subscribe to any particular cosmology or beleif system. I’m a seer.
I am an expert in the world of the supremely happy because I am happy. I’ve never met anybody as happy as I am – that, in itself, should make you unhappy.
I know a lot of ways to happiness! I also know some pretty fast shortcuts to misery.
Humor is one of the primary tools for liberation.
I personally have fun with enlightenment, the study and the teaching of it. I get a kick out of doing it different ways because I don’t think there is a “way”.
My seminars are for you. They are moments, hours and evenings outside of time. A chance, in a highly charged environment, to meditate, find stillness, and remember who you are. A place, with others of like mind, to find and lose yourself in the transcendental light.
I have often discussed the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path in talks I have given about meditation. But, since I also teach Hindu, Buddhist, and Taoist mediation, I have a very eclectic approach to the subject.
One evening you may learn about enlightenment, koans, meditation and personal power.
I teach Zen, tantric mysticism, jnana yoga, bhakti yoga, Tibetan mysticism, occultism and psychic development. I also teach poetry and literature, film and many other different things.
I am very interested in the enlightenment of women. Very few teachers of advanced self discovery work with women, and if they do it’s usually in a very second handed way. They treat women as second class citizens.
While I enjoy teaching people on the basic and intermediate levels to work them up to advanced levels, my real talent is for the advanced students. You could say that I’m like a ninth-degree black belt in martial arts.
The way advanced meditation is taught, the way I teach it, the way all enlightened people teach it, is through transference. We transfer light and power to someone else.
Transmission does not have to take place physically. The student doesn’t have to be sitting across from you. But it’s easier if they are because the vibration of the teacher is strongest in the physical proximity of the teacher.
Many of the people I work with I’ve worked with in other lifetimes. I moved to California because I knew that many of my students from past lives were in California.
