Just as the subtle physical body holds together the physical body, the causal body holds together the body of awareness.
There is no end and there is no beginning. There is only eternity. Eternity can be warm. eternity can be cold and ruthless.
When I talk about subtle bodies, causal bodies and things like that, it is a good idea not to take it all completely literally. It cannot be put into words.
The more lives you have, the harder it is to change, yet the stronger you are. It's a kind of funny dichotomy.
A lot of people have this live or die attitude with mediation. It has to be all or nothing. I don't think it should be. It's a study that you follow for the rest of your life.
If you are trying to aid people in the process of self-discovery, what you have to do is confound them with so many concepts that are contradictory, yet each make complete sense in its own right.
As you gain control of the mind, you gain control of life and you gain control of your time. It all works together.

You don't need anybody to tell you what is right or wrong. What you need, perhaps, is someone to show you how to come to those understandings.
Be the exceptional being who separates themselves from the herd and the fate of the herd.

A soul mate is not necessarily someone with whom you set up housekeeping. Your soul and their soul have a multi-incarnation attraction.
You see two people together. They're in a relationship. It's really power that holds those people together. And when the designs of power change, those people will separate and there's nothing they can do in the meantime about it.
