Meditation can be a very long path. If you are a serious student, you will practice for the rest of your life. Sometimes it takes years to make significant headway. Frequently, students just sit in silence wondering what is supposed to happen... if they do it long enough, eventually the change in consciousness will come. This is why some choose to forsake the rest of the world; this allows them to focus entirely on their inner journey. Of course, there are other ways. There are quite... more...

What is enlightenment? How does one design a path by which he or she can achieve enlightenment? Enlightenment is a vague concept, and that might be part of its power.

Since 1997, Herbert Benson, of the Harvard Medical School, has reaffirmed that "Sixty to ninety percent of [doctor-patient] visits are prompted by conditions related to stress."

I teach a variety of different skill-sets from a variety of traditions. The goal of the whole thing, however, is liberation... freedom. Currently, most of the people in the world are slaves to their programming... neurological slaves. Whatever patterns are in their nervous system, are basically who they are.

Usually, the customer must say "yes" to themselves (internally) several times before they will a... more...
