Emotions are there to enjoy life but they are not used in self-reflection because they inhibit a proper reflection. They gunk us up.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Anyone who seeks enlightenment is going to encounter opposition, whether it is from their society or from non-physical forces or friends or whatever it is. Be strong enough to go through that and win.

All happiness is inside your own mind. Chances are, you have not discovered that. Meditation is about experiencing the happiness inside your mind.
Frederick Lenz
Image
A mantra is a thought. Use a mantra to help you still your mind initially and then move into silent meditation.

Everyone meditates in their own way. Some people sit and practice formal mediation techniques for many hours a day while others spontaneously meditate while watching a sunset, listening to music, or participating in athletics.
