If you use your will all the time, then it runs out. You deplete yourself and then, when you really need it, it's not there.

Zen is a very quick path to enlightenment and development of the mind and all its facilities.

A lot of people trash their subtle physical body with psychedelic drugs. While they do certainly give you experiences in altered levels of attention, you pay a price for it. They definitely screw up the subtle physical. Hatha Yoga can be good for that.

Image
A mantra is a very powerful word. It vibrates like music does, only not on this plane but on other planes of reality. It creates a powerful force. It starts the kundalini moving.

Image
Rama is a fairly common name in India. It symbolizes an individual who is interested both in enlightenment and martial arts. I do not claim to have any past life connection with the historical Rama. It's just a name I liked.

Image
I am very interested in the enlightenment of women. Very few teachers of advanced self discovery work with women, and if they do it's usually in a very second handed way. They treat women as second class citizens.

Image
If you are with a fully enlightened being, a jivan mukta, liberated soul, the quality of light is so clear, that you don't really know that it is there until later.

Image
Consistency is nice, I think, personally. I like to be consistently happy. I like to be consistently more aware and more conscious of the truth.

Tantra and adventure are very, very connected. Perhaps the greatest enemy for one who's journeying along the spiritual path is complacency.

Be a perfect flow of energy in whatever you chose to do. This is perfect action.

Enlightened teachers get all sorts of assignments. Sometimes we end up in the higher astral sometimes we end up in the realm of pure spirit sometimes we end up in the desire realms. Sometimes we go down to the lower astral to teach, you don't really teach there, you just sort of are, because everybody is confused.

Personal power is really the issue. It is only through tremendous attention to detail that you will be able to gain personal power and searing self-honesty.

Image
We have developed psychic powers in other lives. Now we have many problems because of it, many voices in the mind due to this crowded earth.
Frederick Lenz
Image
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.

A good teacher will show you the ropes in the world of power. They will give you the wisdom that is necessary to be able to use power. You just don't give a kid a new Ferrari. You teach him how to drive it.

Image
Aum is the most powerful of all mantras. It is good to chant Aum seven or more times before and after each meditation. Chanting Aum puts you in harmony with the vibration of Eternity. Aum opens the gateway to the infinite highway of light.

As you meditate, you'll develop a sense of humor so that you can laugh at yourself, which you need to do in this world.

Fulfillment of desire taken to extremes doesn't necessarily make us happy. It tends to make us rather cynical.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Don't create a plastic image of what it is to be spiritual and try to become it. You won't be capable of it and that will frustrate you. Even if you could do it, if it's not really what you're like, you'll be miserable.

Its funny how human beings tend to think that they're the masters of the earth never realizing that the earth, for a time, simply tolerates its tenants and then, when the mood strikes, it shifts its continents around.

Who needs to go the horror movies? Just go outside or turn on the TV. Buddha called it the nightmare of the day. Welcome to incarnate experience.
