Happy Earth Day Weekend Friends and Lovers!
Once upon a time I worked at a New Age Bookstore and they often held various classes on various subjects and so I benefited in technique and skill in advancing wisdom and knowledge in my quest for self mastery. Here are some writings that I gleaned over the internet that may be of interest to some…
Affirmation
"I am loved and appreciated whether I am with someone or not."
White light is the finest manifestation perceivable by the human eye. When visualized, it imparts to the seer clarity, wisdom and enlightenment. Yellow also imparts these qualities, but with less impact as it is a denser vibration of light. Both have healing qualities, but, as white light is finer and purer, its effects will raise our vibrations more quickly and clearly. When visualizing white light, it is useful to allow the mantra "Light" to manifest as well. By combining the two, you strengthen your practice. Now, whenever you say, or think, the word "light", you will also visualize it. Remember to tie your mantra in with your breathing.
"Love" is also a useful mantra. Combine it with the color pink and imagine your heart chakra opening as with a pink rose, its petals unfurling to declare love to all and everything. Sometimes we need to find our own mantra that means "Love" to us. You will know what that mantra is. It will be found in your own heart.
Practicing these two meditations, while sitting *and* while going about your business throughout the day, will bring more harmony, more healing and more enlightenment into your life and the life of others. Practice it freely. And by all means, enjoy yourself.
In my search for True Power I discovered Wisdom and in my painful enlightenment I was granted Truth and the Truth is there is only One source of Power and that power is within each one of us. Use it wisely!

People can live in happiness or misery. Ignorance leads to misery. Wisdom can produce happiness. We choose Life or death everyday. Every month we are happier and more alive, or we become tenser, more miserable, and more dead. People rarely die in one day, they spend a lifetime dying by poor quality living.
The 3 basic causes of death are:
Ignorance – never thinking about the alternatives to the traditional practice of physical death and never thinking of our natural divinity and spiritual power.
Emotional energy pollution – we have a natural tendency to absorb feelings, emotions, and energy concentrations – good or bad - from the people we spend time with. Most people are ignorant of the energy body and how to cleanse it with simple spiritual purification practices with earth, air, water, fire, meditation, love, energy, and rest. Emotional energy pollution eventually causes energy burn out and death. False and negative information can build victim consciousness and patterns of self sabotage into our life.
Poor diet - Medical science reveals that most people eat themselves to death. Christians, who are supposed to have eternal life, die of cancer and heart disease because they eat too much meat, just like non Christians. Poor diet kills more people than alcohol, cigarettes, and drugs combined. To know this and understand it is basic to wisdom.
The purpose in this article for you; is to give you the benefit of 50 years of research. I have traveled around the world over ten times, studied all subjects and all religions to find the truth about human happiness - to discover the owner's manual for divine human beings. What I am sharing with you now is the best of what I found - the basic principles and practices that ever evolve our health, happiness, and success on all levels. What you do with this knowledge, of course, is up to you. I have done my best to present my ideas clearly and simply.
I will first summarize the basic rules in God's owner's manual for the human mind and body in words that are easy for you to remember:
Mind Earth Air Water Fire Love Respect Rest.
Now I'll expand each of these words to give them a clearer meaning so that you can understand the rules - the principles or spiritual purification techniques that make you healthy, happy, alive and successful. A spiritual purification technique is simple practices that we can do every day that cleans our energy body and makes us feel better. It gives us better energy and enables us to feel peace, joy and love, and to be more creative. It also keeps the physical body healthy and makes it a responsive and pleasurable place to be.
The eight biggies of spiritual purification are:
Earth purification: Earth purification is basically food mastery and exercise. Food mastery means to learn what our body actually needs, how much and how often. It means good nutrition and as well as fasting regularly to give our internal organs a rest. Vegetarianism is a basic requirement for mental and physical health. Having a personal exercise system is important. Walking, yoga, or the five Tibetan rites are good systems. There are many other forms of earth purification like using crystals, hiking, gyms, percussion with drums, dancing, receiving body work like massage, manual labor, swimming, sitting in a forest, etc. Earth includes also our work, having a career that we love and winning the money game. It includes loving and creative service to people.
Air Purification: You can heal your mind and body by consciously breathing Divine Energy. It is a wonderful tool, taught by good Rebirthing Breath workers. You don't have to die to feel God. Your body is the Temple of God. To feel God in your body is the best place to feel the ENERGY OF CREATION. Conscious Energy Breathing is often called a biological experience of God (Geometry of Divinity). It is easy to practice when you learn connected breathing and learn to breathe from the Breath Itself. The Breath Itself is the Breath of Life which is the source of Life – Divine Energy – to the body and mind. Conscious Breathing or Energy Breathing is a healing ability that makes people more spiritually self sufficient. Intuitive Breathing energizes the body and mind; it cleans the blood and the nervous system. Doing it daily or regularly is a basic rule of the owner's manual.
Water Purification: Bathing twice a day is a marvelous spiritual purification practice that cleans and balances our energy body. It is best to bathe immediately after getting out of bed and it is valuable to bathe before sleeping. I noticed that all the immortal yogis I met bathe before sunrise and before sunset. There is special value to this practice, but you should try it when you can and discover by yourself what it does for you. Knowing the quality of the water we drink is also important. Drinking enough contributes to good health. Most health authorities recommend drinking at least one quart of pure water per day. Check your water quality!
Fire Purification: Understanding and using the spiritual power of fire to clean our energy body is as important to mental and physical health as food. Fire may take the most intelligence to use. Fire can burn away the causes of all diseases out of our energy body - our aura. Fire helps to clean our aura. Fire can burn away the death urge and persistent negative emotions faster than anything.
Meditation/Mind Purification: Judging the quality of every thought as it flows through our consciousness, the Buddha called it the supreme technique of enlightenment. Learning to transform our negative thoughts into positive thoughts is a part of this technique. Meditation means to hold troublesome thoughts and feelings in our mind and work with them until we can transform them into harmony with the Truth. The mind is a powerful goal achieving mechanism. We must always consciously select a goal for our mind to work on. Reaching one worthwhile goal after another is success consciousness. Reading and memorizing the scriptures and great ideas is also a part of mind mastery. Mantra Yoga and prayer are great ways to purify our mind.
Love: Maintaining love and fun in all our human relationships is an important part of our owner's manual. It feels good to be an honest and ethical person. Since we do love others as we love ourselves, love is ultimately self-approval. Approving of the Self in us and having positive thoughts about ourselves enables us to give approval and positive feelings to others. Our very Self is the Infinite Creator Spirit or Life Energy. To perceive the Presence of God in us is love. To perceive it in others is love. Love means spiritual community and spiritual family in which we give and receive support for spiritual growth and personal healing. Love also includes community participation and political responsibility. To express ourselves in community and participate in local, national, and international government is the practical way that we love other people.
Respect: Sometimes we discover a very wise or good person. It is wise to spend time with these people and honor them and learn as much as we can from them. Learning from people may be the fastest way to learn. We learned negative emotions and habits from our parents as well as positive thoughts. I have met several immortal yogis who are hundreds and some of them thousands of years in the same body. They are very, very wise and deserve to be called Saints. Being with them is the greatest pleasure of my life. Associating with people who are masters of what we desire to master is an important rule.
Rest: The Sabbath day principle in the Bible is a good practice, but it doesn't have to be Saturday or Sunday. It can be any day of the week. To rest at least one day per week enables us to enjoy the other six days at least twice as much and to accomplish more. Knowing when to take a rest is a great secret to health and success. Resting is practicing the Presence of God directly. It is a continuous source of power, wisdom, pleasure, healing, creativity, and strength. Absolute rest is absolute power – nothing can resist it. Knowing when to rest and practice relaxation is an important point in our owner's manual.
You now have the basic principles of the owner's manual. You can learn more by practicing them and by studying the Bible, the Shiva Purana and all great scriptures. There are many more principles.
We learn the secrets of Breathing from the Breath Itself, we can only learn the secrets of fasting by fasting, and we can only learn the secrets of fire from the fire itself. We learn the secrets of water from bathing, we learn grace through devotion to God, we learn the secrets of the saints by spending time with them, we learn the secrets of rest by resting and we learn the secrets of the mind by thinking. We can only know life by participating. And it is important to be able to just Be!
We can choose ignorance or wisdom. To choose ignorance brings misery and death. To choose wisdom brings purification and pleasure and personal aliveness. Those acts which are in harmony with our divine nature usually make us feel good and more alive. Some acts feel good when we are doing them but produce bad effects later. To know which is which is wisdom!
If some of these simple spiritual practices are new to you, but you experiment with them, you will soon understand why the world doesn't work and why there is crime and unhappiness. They may take a little effort to do, but they are simple and will not produce results for you unless you actually do them. To persist in misery takes self discipline also - discipline with punishment attached.
Meditate on your energy body the next time you shower or take a bath and notice how different you feel before and after.
Build a fire in your fireplace or a campfire in your backyard and notice how it changes your feelings. Just sitting with a campfire one to two hours can heal physical diseases. It will cure depression almost every time.
Find an Energy Breathing teacher or Rebirther and do ten sessions if you'd like to experience a wonderful surprise. You may discover that indeed God dwells in your very own body.
Fast on liquids for a day. Do enough exercise to enjoy your body and notice that you have a body.
Get yourself in good physical condition.
Read a page of scripture every day or experiment with a mantra
Reach out to your neighbors with love and participate in a town meeting.
Try resting in the Presence of God until it becomes a reality for you. God loves you. It is safe for you to fall in love with God.
God says, 'The wise do spiritual practices!"

A mind expanded by a new idea can never return to its former size. Two common words in everyone's vocabulary when combined into one idea become one of the most powerful ideas in the universe. Physical is a very common word. Immortality is also a common word. When you combine them, you get the idea of physical immortality. I've been exposing people to the idea of physical immortality for over 30 years.
Physical immortality means victory over physical death. It means body and mind mastery. Our Spirit is already an immortal master. This simple thought of physical immortality makes us realize that although death may be popular, it is not inevitable. Physical death is optional. The whole purpose of Jesus Christ was to teach us this. But Jesus was not the first nor the last human to conquer death. The Hebrew Bible is about five main immortal humans: Elijah, Moses, Melchizadek, and Enoch. In the beginning of Bible history, everyone lived 500 to 1000 years. India has its immortal yogis. Every continent has its favorite immortals, including native Americans. I've made this one of my favorite research projects for 37 years. Why do Christians die? Why? If Jesus died to save us from sin and death?
The founders and heroes and heroines of most religions who conquered death do not have a local address on planet Earth. When I learned about the immortal yogis who do, I was so excited I couldn't wait to meet them. Since my first trip to India in 1977, I have met over 8 immortals who each have maintained their body for at least 300 years. People have to be at least 300 to qualify for my research. I know of many more that I haven't had a chance to meet yet.
I've met several who are over 2000. These are yogis who have maintained a local address on planet Earth for over 2000 years. I've written books about two of them: Babaji and Bhartriji. People often tell me that after my lecture or book in which the idea of physical immortality got their attention; they couldn't stop thinking about it for several years. It makes so much sense. How could people be blinded by the death is inevitable belief system for so long?
After teaching the truth about physical immortality for over 30 years, I've concluded that the reason people don't like to know about it is because it I involves a little spiritual work and personal changes. Physical immortality is the natural result of a mind filled with wisdom and aliveness.
The three basic causes of death are:
1. Ignorance
2. Emotional Energy Pollution
3. Poor diet.
Therefore, to master death you have to do three things:
1. Master the idea of physical immortality, which involves living from Spirit, our natural divinity.
2. Unravel our own death urge, which we received from our parents and encourage all the people in our environment to do the same. Learn how to keep our energy body & emotional mind clean and balanced through spiritual purification practices.
3. Learn the power of nutrition, fasting and the other simple and pleasurable habits that give us body mastery.
Mastering spiritual practices is less difficult than living a miserable life that leads to the grave. In fact, true spiritual practices are the ultimate pleasures and enrich all the pleasures of living. As I studied the lives of my immortal yogi friends, I began to realize that becoming an immortal yogi is not difficult; it just takes a different focus. People die because they kill themselves.
The greatest enemy of mankind has been and always will be ignorance. And the most evil form of ignorance is self-righteousness - thinking we know enough. Self-righteous people are murdering their own natural divinity and are guilty of murdering the natural divinity of everyone around them. It is the sin of eating of the fruit of the tree of knowledge and naturally yields the personal doom of death. The Bible says, "God is not willing for any to perish, but that all should come to a knowledge of repentance." Repentance means to change our mind. Repentance is neither difficult nor unpleasurable. In fact, it is exciting, inspiring, and produces pleasure, bliss, and ecstasy. If God made the path to eternal life difficult, He/She would be a sadist Who has doomed us to eternal misery. The only thing difficult about it is giving up your addiction to misery. Changing gives us the immense satisfaction of accomplishment.
Simple spiritual purification practices like bathing twice per day, conscious energy breathing, fire purification, an exercise system, a conscious diet, loving relationships, and mastering a mantra are the basic common denominators of the lifestyle of all the immortal masters I have met. These spiritual practices with earth, air, water, and fire can clean the mind faster than the mind can clean the mind. They are healing magic. In the process of mastering these, we must develop a balance between solitude and service.
I've written many books about physical immortality and the practical principles of conquering death and I recommend that you read them all and use my tapes repetitively if you are interested in personal mastery. But every year I try to put this simple truth into one page, in a clearer and easier way for people to understand.
Anyone can read or have read to them one page and have their mind expanded to receive the joy that this great idea brings. It unshackles your creativity and releases enormous reserves of energy and intelligence.
Is physical immortality realistic? Yes, if we honor the following.
The three basic secrets to physical immortality are:
1. To stay tuned into God - Infinite Energy, our Source - all the time. Have pure thoughts and Life.
2. To heal the death urge. Healing the death urge can take us through the most ugly emotions of suicidal and homicidal thoughts - we have to survive the illusions in our own mind and go for wisdom and bliss.
3. To keep our energy body clean and balanced with the simple and pleasurable spiritual purification practices with mind, earth, air, water, fire, and love.
When we eat food we have to clean the dishes, etc. When our home gets dirty, we have to clean it. We also have to wash our clothes. When our energy body (also called emotional body) gets dirty through absorbing emotional energy pollution as we participate with people or in our self-healing process, we have to clean ourselves emotionally and spiritually. It is a daily process. Spiritual cleanliness is Energy and Peace.
If we stay ahead of the pollution - cleansing process, we become more alive every day. If we lose the spiritual purification game, we become more dead every day. Victory or victim?
One of the indicators is the guru belly phenomena. The solar plexus chakra is the social chakra and emotional energy pollution can be collected physically in the form of fat around the navel - it is sometimes called psychic fat.
Another indicator is stiffness. An over loaded body gets stiffer and stiffer every day and every year until we become a stiff - and are buried. When we absorb other people's death urge, we can get depressed, feel suicidal, become prone to anger, be grouchy, or have violent dreams. Victim consciousness in all its forms is a sign of death urge.
I'll finish this page with an idea which is a million times greater than physical immortality, and is the source of personal mastery or misery and death. It is this: 'Energy becomes what it thinks about'. Your personal energy is the Eternal Spirit - God Within - your natural divinity.
This Infinite Eternal Energy is helpless and powerless without thought and yet it is the power of thought. Your unlimited potential is only potential until it has been activated and directed by your thoughts. Energy is directed by thought.
Infinite Power directed by thoughts of weakness can produce infinite weakness.
Infinite power directed by wholesome and healthy thoughts produce infinite wholesomeness, health, and safety - beyond safety - peace and pleasure. Thoughts of death produce death.
Thoughts of Eternal Life produce physical immortality and body mastery. The body is Energy materialized by thought; not passive thinking, but active thinking; thought in motion. Your physical body and emotional body have been built up by millions of thoughts in action. To be a master, you now have to catch the thoughts and change them with the kind of actions that produce the results you like. We are all scientists and our body is the laboratory. Various nutrients have been created by thinking beings to produce certain effects in the body. Some of these cause and effect relationships are simple and some are quite complex. And simple fasting is the direct route to the purity of Infinite Energy. However, it is also possible to starve to death for spiritual purposes. We have to learn balance and common sense. More people die from overeating today than from starvation.
Repentance is fun! Changing our minds is the great, eternal adventure of all intelligent divine beings.
Playing in your Spirit Energy, your Divine Mind, and your Infinitely Beautiful Body is what Eternal Life is all about.
