Image
The challenge of power is how to use it and not abuse it. When you abuse it, it reverses on you and it hurts you.

The sensual world cannot be avoided. We're in it at every moment. We are part of it.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The kundalini energy enables us to do things that would not happen otherwise, to apply an occult pressure, to use energy to create effects perhaps thousands of miles away.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The Buddhist mindset seeks to eliminate the self. That is to say, what we want to experience is life, not self. When there's less self and more life, we're very content, and when there's more self and less life we're quite unhappy.

That's my sole purpose in life is to sit here today and tell you that you can do this, in any life. You can do this in one of your past lives, in a future life, or right now. I prefer now.
