If you keep imagining a desired version of yourself with consistency in detail and duration, the universe has no choice but to give it to you. Imagination is the power of self-creation. Read more… … More Have an imaginary friend, and let it be your best self
The direct path toward spiritual realization is easier than advertised. All that one needs to do is to sit and do nothing! It’s the hardest habit to overcome, to do nothing, but it’s the easiest thing to do (or not to do) once we find the zone. Read more… … More The Direct Path to Spiritual Realization
I am lost in some strange neighborhood of my mind; there are so many buildings and high-rises in every direction that I have lost my sense of orientation. I don’t know how I ended up here. It is strange like a dream: I have somehow naively accepted the inception and reality of this place but … More The Garden of Eden: Paradise Buried Alive
