Concentration is the ability to pay attention and not be distracted. This is the fundamental basis of entering into meditation itself. Without concentration, meditation is not possible. So, beginners first learn how to concentrate. This lecture explains how. "It is completely impossible to experience the Being—the Innermost, the Reality—without becoming true technical and scientific masters of that mysterious science called meditation. It is completely impossible to experience the Being—the Innermost, the Reality—without having reached a true mastery of the quietude and silence of the mind." - Samael Aun Weor "Without wise concentration on thought, the experience of the truth is impossible." - Samael Aun Weor "If you focus the rays of the sun through a lens, they can burn cotton or a piece of paper; but, the scattered rays cannot do this act. If you want to talk to a man at a distance, you make a funnel of your hand and speak. The sound-waves are collected at one point and then directed towards the man. He can hear your speech very clearly. The water is converted into steam and the steam is concentrated at a point. The railway engine moves. All these are instances of concentrated waves. Even so, if you collect the dissipated rays of the mind and focus them at a point, you will have wonderful concentration. The concentrated mind will serve as a potent searchlight to find out the treasures of the soul and attain the supreme wealth of Atman (the Self), eternal bliss, immortality and perennial joy." - Swami Sivananda This is a lecture from the free online course Fuel for Spiritual Experience: Meditation and Energy Course Description: Spiritual experiences are not difficult to have if you know the laws of nature that manage them.

In Western cultures, the word faith has been misused for centuries; it does not mean "belief," but "trust, conviction, based on knowledge from experience." That is why spiritual development depends completely on faith: spiritual experience. Learn about the levels of faith and how they relate to Triratna, the three jewels: the buddha, the dharma, and the sangha. Includes an explanation of Buddha Amitaba, the Greek Goddess Peitho, and more. "We say that unsurpassed bodhi has faith as its cause. The causes of awakening are innumerable, but if stated as faith, this covers everything. O Śāriputra, the ultimate truth is really approachable only by faith." - Uttara-tantra-shastra / Ratnagotravibhāga by Buddha Maitreya This is a lecture from the free online course Fuel for Spiritual Experience: Meditation and Energy Course Description: Spiritual experiences are not difficult to have if you know the laws of nature that manage them.

The Rune Jera reveals the mystery of the relationship of duality and trinity. "The Tao manifests its power through the three treasures of the light, namely: Shen, Chi and Jing, which are the three principles of the universe. The three treasures of the light manifest in the Heavens, in the Earth, and in the Human Being. Each of them contains their own three treasures of the light. The three treasures of Heaven are the stars (Shen - Atziluth), the sun (Chi - Briah), and the moon (Jing - Yetzirah). The three treasures of Earth (Assiah - Pritvi) are: air (Shen - Vayu) water (Chi - Apas) and fire (Jing - Tejas). The three treasures in the Human Being are intellectual Brain (Shen), Emotional Brain (Chi) and Motor-Instinctual-Sexual Brain (Jing)."

"The language of the Protoplasmic Root Race was the Word of Gold, a universal and cosmic language whose combinations of sounds produced cosmic phenomena of all kinds. Those who follow the path of the Perfect Matrimony come to discover that primeval language again within themselves. When the sacred fire reaches the level of the throat, we then begin to speak in the very pure rising of the divine language, which like a river of gold delightfully flows through the dense sunny jungle. The cosmic laws of Nature were taught to the Gods by their inner Fathers by chanting in this language. The script of the First Root Race was with the Runes. The mallet of Masonry comes from the arrow of the Egyptian God Ra, and this is a Rune. In that epoch, the rituals of the Polar Temple were all runic. The movements of the officials were runic. This is the Divine Script. Let us remember that the Swastika is a Rune. The Hebrew letters are but modifications of runic letters." - Samael Aun Weor, The Perfect Matrimony This free online course was originally given as a series of live non-scripted lectures on Gnostic Radio.

"Ah, Lord God, my holy Lover, when You come into my heart, all that is within me will rejoice. You are my glory and the exultation of my heart. You are my hope and refuge in the day of my tribulation. But because my love is as yet weak and my virtue imperfect, I must be strengthened and comforted by You. Visit me often, therefore, and teach me Your holy discipline. Free me from evil passions and cleanse my heart of all disorderly affection so that, healed and purified within, I may be fit to love, strong to suffer, and firm to persevere. [...]Love is watchful. Sleeping, it does not slumber. Wearied, it is not tired. Pressed, it is not straitened. Alarmed, it is not confused, but like a living flame, a burning torch, it forces its way upward and passes unharmed through every obstacle." - Thomas a Kempis, The Imitation of Christ "Bliss rises when the Vital Heat is fanned, When air from the nadis flows in the central channel, When Bodhichitta flows from above, When it is purified below, When red and white meet in the middle, And the joy of a leakless body satiates one, These are the Six Blissful Experiences of Yoga." - Milarepa This is a lecture from the free online course Fuel for Spiritual Experience: Meditation and Energy Course Description: Spiritual experiences are not difficult to have if you know the laws of nature that manage them.

"I saw the chariot of the centuries, which was driven by three Masters of the White Lodge, and a venerable Elder was in this chariot of mystery. How can I forget such a face? Such a countenance? Such an appearance? Such sublime perfection? The forehead of that Elder was certainly high and majestic, his nose straight and perfect, his lips fine and delicate, his ears small and recoiled, his beard white and with an aureole of light, and his hair of an immaculate whiteness was falling over his shoulders. It is obvious that I could not stop inquiring about him, since he was terribly Divine and formidable. “The name of Him is Peter,” answered one of the Hierophants who was driving the chariot of the centuries. Then after... oh God of mine!... I abased myself on the ground before this Elder of the Centuries, and filled with infinite love and compassion, while speaking in the golden language, he blessed me. Since then I have reflected a lot, and I will never be sorry for having taught humanity the Gospel of Peter, the Maithuna, Sex Yoga. Patar, Peter, said: "Behold I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious... Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner. And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense." - 1 Peter 2:6, 7, 8 But then, what about the Holy Grail? Is it not perhaps the same Initiatic Stone?" – Magic of the Runes, Samael Aun Weor This is a lecture from the free online course The Runes Course Description: Dive deep into the primordial structures hidden in all languages and cultures.
