I don't know how much you know about Zen, but you'll know less when I'm done with you.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Beyond the subtle body we have something called the causal body that's more what we are. We are a series of interconnecting awarenesses. It's like a molecular bond, DNA, a double-helix, and we can change that.

Read books that expand you, that are bright. See films, plays, art forms that elevate your consciousness, that bring you into a sense of how beautiful this world is, how beautiful other worlds are, how beautiful nirvana, the transcendental is.
