You have to learn to be very, very gentle to start with – with yourself eventually. Meditation is not something that you force. It is something that happens to you because life gives you a gift.
Meditation is coming back to your original self, if we can use self without a sense of self. It’s perfect, clear light, radiant, infinite mind of the universe, as it is, without identifying with qualities.
Unfortunately we’ve seen meditation insulted in a sense with the image of ritual. You have to dress a certain way, follow a certain type of lifestyle, all that sort of thing, very culty – and that, of course, has nothing to do with the practice whatsoever.
Don’t try to be someone. Be yourself. This is what mediation should teach you.
Try to find a teacher of meditation and meditate at least once a week in a group with people who meditate a little better than you do. It will inspire you to keep meditating.
In meditation, we are going back into the light. All our pain will be taken away, our frustration.
The aggregates that we pick up in the human plane will be washed away, and we will become pure spirit, pure light, pure love, and pure ecstasy.
The light is not quantifiable. You experience it in meditation when thought stops. When you go beyond the limitations of the ego, the light is waiting for you.
Learn the motions of infinity within your mind. Your mind becomes a perfect mirror to the motions of infinity.
What you focus on you become. If you spend an hour or two a day meditating and focusing on light, then you will eventually become light.
The key to all enlightenment is to have personal experiences in the world of light. All you need to do that is to meditate.
Meditation is the quickest path to enlightenment.
This is simple meditation, nothingness and everythingness, the color and the form, death and the void, the end and the beginning, a beginningless end with an endless beginning, Pretty clever if you ask me.
The kundalini is the life force; it is the essential energy of existence. It is the hidden ingredient in life. It is what makes it all work.
Power is the active force in life. It is the force that makes awareness. The general term for spiritual power is kundalini. Kundalini is the energy of life that creates awareness.
The primary energy that is active in all things is kundalini. Kundalini energy is the energy of awareness. It can be used to modify awareness.
The kundalini is the energy that opens up the bands of perception. It is also the power that allows us to travel mentally from one dimension to another, from one experience to another.
The power that enables us to transform our awareness is the release of kundalini. All yoga, either directly or indirectly, all Buddhism, relates to the release of the kundalini energy.
Kundalini is the life force. It is given different names. They call it prana. They divide it into different segments, the apana and the samana; sometimes it’s called shakti. Nice names, it is energy.
Kundalini is almost a misleading word, unless you define it as broadly as I do.
