Letter to a friend

Dear Friend,

Kindly allow me to share some reflections.

No matter where we are at, we continue to learn, grow, and unfold. This process never stops. Even if we have entered the journey of awakening, this process continues. If there are events of samadhi, or even the very rare event of Sustained Samadhi, even then we continue learning. The Universe gives us invitations and opportunities to learn.

In this way we stay humble. The necessity to reflect upon how we conduct ourselves continues. Every atom of our existence must become conscious. We are never above the need for reflection and possible self-correction. Even the greatest Masters look at their lives and consider if there are better ways.

These days Buddhism is very popular.  However,  the Buddha also did not like women. If you look closely at the Buddhist structures, it shows.

I like to think that awakening takes place in a process of evolution. Awakened beings stand on each other’s shoulders.  Therefore, awakening too becomes more refined and intelligent. It does no just repeat or replicate. It grows and evolves!

We can go back into the past and copy old ways of spirituality that in fact have proven to be limited and outdated. Or we can start a revolution today and embrace the spirituality of the future, which is a spirituality that activates the totality of our intelligence.

Intelligence is not just intellectual. It takes place on many levels and dimensions. There is emotional, psychological and sexual intelligence. There is intelligence that is artistic and psychic. There are many ways of activating intelligence that we cannot even imagine right now. The movie “Lucy” with Scarlett Johanson and Morgan Freeman explores this fascinating topic.

My choice of spirituality involves the activation of the totality of our latent intelligence. I cannot be content with anything less. This is my choice.

It is all of our choice. We can become 21st century bodhisattvas and create OUR OWN STYLE along the lines of the greatest, luminous intelligence possible. We can take the chance of risking to be who we truly are.  We can create a new way of being on this planet and a new spirituality.  Or we can just repeat the past. All religions and spiritual avenues of the past have not made humanity any better or more peaceful. It is up to us to choose a greater intelligence, a greater harmony and a greater compassion.

It is time for a new approach and a new way. We can make that choice today. Now.

Recognize you have power

This work of invocation and mantra will ultimately put you into a position of having a lot of impact on the world. You will have great effect on the people around you. You will recognize that you can not only shift your own life, but you will be able to improve the quality of life for the people that are important to you.

Once you recognize this, it is amazing. Once you comprehend how much alleviation of suffering you can bring to others, you have reached a truly important milestone in your life.

The power of invocation is fabulous. At the beginning of this work, you will feel that you are stepping into something intangible. You may feel like shouting into the wind. You will feel doubt and think that nobody will hear you because at school they don’t teach you this.

Please understand that you can have a genuine conversation with a Divine Source and you will get answers that are powerful. They will bring power and transformation to your life. The more you practice this, the more you will see it.

“I call forth the power and the presence of the Divine. I give you my body, hear and soul. Use me as your own.” And then say what you need.

And ultimately, for example, when you say, “I call forth the power and the presence of Yesus Christos. I give you my body, heart and soul. Use me as your own. Banish all negativity on this planet,” --- the moment you say this, it changes the planet.

I don’t just want to present you with teachings that revolutionize your own life. I want you to understand that when you do 10 minutes of invocations, you have a planetary impact.

“I call forth the power and the presence of Yesus Christos. I give you my body, heart and soul. In the name of Yesus Christos, I banish all evil on this planet.”

I sit in my room and I close my eyes and I repeat this. Suddenly I have visions of certain negative entities and I see them begin to fade. Their presence and power is vanishing. They become less and less solid and then they disappear. This is a most intriguing experience.

There are presences on this planet that simply need to go. We don’t need them here with us any longer. The influences that bring war and suffering are no longer wanted. Time to leave humanity, time to leave us in peace.

With this work you won’t just acquire personal power. You can easily become planetary healers. Once you recognize that you have that power and potential, to do invocations, mantras and prayers that make a planetary difference, you will look at yourself differently. At that point you will look into the mirror and see the Inner Tiger revealed. And when that happens, it will be fabulous because we need planetary change. We need more and more individuals that have planetary consciousness. We need more than ants that just live their little lives.

We need human beings that look around and become fully conscious of life on this entire planet. And when we see something that is not okay, we need to get up and do something about that. We need to engage. We need to spend part of our time to clean that up. We do have the power to clean that. You can start cleaning from right where you are, from the very room you are in. You can send out such a powerful emanation that will cause a tangible shift.

Then imagine what happens when you do this work in a group context. Even more power of change and transformation is unleashed. Mantras and invocations are so awe-inspiring and effective.

Unconditional love

Unconditional love is a byproduct of profound meditation effort. Once it arrives, it additionally clashes with society values, which is based on selected and highly conditioned love or affection. You will be loved only if you behave in ways specified by the people and society surrounding you.

Success in Meditation

Success in meditation: You begin to understand how much you don't understand.

The Opening of the Inner Space

It is possible to meditate for a long, long time and not find the Opening of the Inner Space. The opening of the inner space happens when the chi in the meditator starts to overflow.

Or expressed in other terms --- the Silence becomes deeper and deeper until it reaches what I call a "Point of critical mass."

At this point the Silence switches and it turns into the Opening of the Inner Space. At this point meditation is transcended and the world of Samadhi begins, of which there exist also many degrees. As the Inner Space opens, the limitations of consciousness begin to disappear. As the Inner Space continues to expand, one's consciousness is realized to contain all living, sentient beings.

In fact, there is the shocking recognition that EVERYTHING IS LIVING. There is no such thing as a non-living thing.

Lineage Dharma Blessings

Even now beings like Osho and Ramana Maharshi have awe-inspiring influence and bring tangible awakening to human consciousness in ways that profoundly touch my heart. Once a contact with such a source is made, one is spoilt forever, because all the lesser sources will never again do. I am filled with living gratitude at the continuing existence of such Dharma lineages.
