Real spirituality and love is always manifest. It always goes to those who are with us and around us.

Life is an endless experience of God's. God doesn't even exist in nirvana, yet God exists in all other realms.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You perceive yourself as being solid and physical, limited to a body. You are made up of light, endless mind. The way you see life is a limited state of mind.

Image
When you go to a power spot, and you think negative or depressing thoughts they tend to grow stronger. Whereas, if you think more positive, happier thoughts, they tend to increase in strength.

As a student of enlightenment your attitude should not be to become enlightened. It should be to learn.

When there's nothing but humility, there's nothing but spiritual oneness.

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.
