NIRVANA .. MEDITATION
Enlightenment doesnt really change anything, yet it changes everything ; Enlightenment changes everything without changing anything. Before one becomes enlightened, the world appears to be three-dimensional, dull and boring. But in reality, the world is not threedimensional, it is anything but boring. Life is composed of millions of dimensions. To an awakened mind, life and even the most repetitive tasks in daily living can never be dull and boring at all, because infinity exists in all things. Once you have become enlightened, you dont have to live in a monastery, because the whole universe has become your monastery. You can lead a normal life doing whatever you choose. Nothing remains the same from one moment to the next, in this or any other dimension. Nothing in the physical or astral worlds exists for more than a moment at a time. But, nirvana exists continuously ; it is constant. So, nirvana .. which is enlightenment .. is certainly more real than anything physical or

astral, because it never ends. You may think that things do, but that is a trick of your thoughts and conceptions. The universe is made up of end-less dimensional planes. Some planes are more durable than others, and of course nirvana is beyond change. So the closer a plane of being is to nirvana, in a way of speaking, the more real it is. Conversely, the farther away from nirvana .. something is the less real it is. We meditate and practice mindfulness to go beyond the limited concepts that keep us in relatively unreal states of mind. Beyond the limited states of mind most human beings experience, there are more durable levels of perception that exist in the astral and the causal planes. To become enlightened, it is necessary to still the thoughts and emotions, and become empty. This is the beginning of true meditation : to empty the mind of distracting ideas, feelings and ways of looking at things and instead allow awareness to roam through the dimensions and planes of higher light that exist deep within the mind. Enlightenment is the complete awareness of life, without any mental modification. It is happiness, ecstasy and all that is beautiful, perfect and fulfilling in life. Enlightenment, is a

perfect state of mind. It is the direct seeing of reality. We cannot control the weather. As a matter of fact, we can hardly predict it. It is the same with day-to-day life. It is very hard to control life even some of the time, let alone most or all of the time, and it is almost impossible to predict life. But after you have united your mind with nirvana in deepest meditation, you will always be in an enlightened state of consciousness. If your mind has become one with nirvana , through the practice of meditation and mindfulness, you will remain happy at all times. Naturally, it takes quite a bit of time to become enlightened. But it is really not so different from learning any other art : all you need is time, a good teacher and practice. When you first begin to meditate, you should not expect too much too soon. The first day you start studying a foreign language you dont expect to speak it, do you ? But, even after only a few weeks of practicing meditation, you will begin to have more energy, and be a little bit happier. Gradually, as your meditation practice improves, you will experience even greater happiness and have more internal energy at your disposal. Eventually, as you further

improve your meditation practice, you will experience ecstasy and knowledge that is beyond the power of words to describe. Each time you meditate, you create a stronger connection with the world of inner light and happiness that exists within you. Over the course of many years of practice, that connection will become brighter and more ecstatic. But ever from the very beginning of your meditation practice, you will notice that some of the brightness and ecstasy you experience during meditation will enter into your day-to-day life. As your meditation practice improves from month to month, more and more light and ecstasy will spill over into the moments of your daily life. You need to experience the reality of light yourself in your own meditation ; only then will you really understand how perfect life is. Then, of course, you will be happy forever. Only the enlightened are consistently happy, because their happiness is not predicated upon the events and experiences that take place in this world. Instead it is based upon the boundless inner energy they gain from their connection with the world of enlightenment.
