“When we cultivate mystical awareness or transcendent identity--which is a natural outgrowth of meditation and other practices--what happens is that we begin to take a witness position on our own lives, and that includes our minds.

Nevertheless, drugs are no substitute for right diet and wholesome regime, and although magic enables a speedy and potent result to be attained, is is only by means of right understanding and right ethics that the position which has been won can be held.” MeanHas BeensWaitingProcessUnderstandingDifferencesResultsCasesMeditationMagicEffectsPositionDrugEthicsMethodMedicineCriticalDietsSubstitutesRegimesNevertheless Book:The training and work of an initiate Source: The training and work of an initiate
