Meditation is the training of the mind to induce a concentrated state of consciousness, focusing attention on an object, whether external or internal, and suppressing the flow of thoughts or mental modifications until reaching the state of less cerebral excitability. This state is characterized by a deep relaxation of the body-mind binomial and a reduction in stress. This Brain Fitness improves the ability to learn, memorize, reason and meditative creativity. Meditation allows us to explore the essence of man, which is Pure Consciousness, pure potentiality, source of infinite creativity, essence of all spirituality. These positive effects begin to be noticed by meditating 20 minutes a day, for the first 2 weeks. The benefits of meditation are numerous, among which we can mention: increased feelings of happiness and improved health, increased personal awareness, development of emotional intelligence and empathy, improved memory, decreased stress, decreased depression and anxiety, decreased blood pressure, decreased heart rate, decreased respiratory rate...

Yoga and Buddhism are fine for maintaining health of body and mind, emotional self-control, and equanimity; but beyond that what are they good for? We do not pay taxes, clothing, food, rent, and all the other costs involved in our subsistence with these systems. Unless we devote ourselves to teaching these doctrines, then: We need to apply laws, systems and practical equations that modify our material and economic reality and make it prosper with maximum efficiency.We have the same tools at our disposal as for the practices of Yoga and Buddhism: will, concentration, imagination, visualization, faith, positive and creative thinking. These are the forces that we must organize and orient ourselves in order to move towards success, to attract success towards us and not to run after it without ever reaching it.

Maitreya postulates that there is no God independently of the human soul, since both are the same manifestation of the Absolute Being on a different scale. It teaches that we cannot possibly prove the objective existence of Divinity, but affirms that the mind potentially possesses the capacity to develop as Cosmic Unified Consciousness, the only requisite being proper techniques and a psychological understanding of the foundation of this reality inherent in the human condition. .Maitreya argues that there are 400 billion stars in our Milky Way galaxy, with around 300 million Earth-like exoplanets capable of supporting life. And on the horizon of the known cosmos, there are another hundred billion galaxies.The reason indicates that we cannot be the only intelligent beings to possess a technological civilization. Maitreya warns that in the face of these stellar intelligences we live in our current state of savagery, where we do not live in harmony with nature, we depredate it to the extreme of putting our own survival at risk and we live in a state of constant violence against each other. .

There is only one universally true Religion: Experience!There is only one universally true Experience: Love!There is only one universally true experience of Love: Action!Jesus asked all of us to share our bread in His name. Sometimes, in these 20 centuries, we have tried and we have been discouraged, but certainly today we are not doing it according to how He asked us...Understanding that the current system of things does not lead to peace, to development in joint harmony and to one's own happiness, is the first step to repent of the World Organization of Injustice, of which we are a part consciously or unconsciously, directly or indirectly. What injustice?: 15 thousand children up to 5 years of age die of hunger, per day...The altar of God, before which we must commune, is that of daily work for a growing Social Justice, so that Jesus' mandate is concrete and effective: share our bread!Truly, we receive our bread of salvation from God, when we share our bread with others and give our bread to others.

In Tibetan Buddhist meditation we find first the effort of relaxation to immerse the mind in the clarity of mental peace and then in the clarity of wisdom through analytical meditation. Thus it is possible to understand the essence of illusion of all phenomena and of the mind itself. This makes it possible to undo attachments to emotional attachments and aversions, cleansing the inner subconscious and freeing the conscious from all past conflict. It is not a matter of repeating a simple technique, but of carrying out a deep self-examination at the level of self-criticism, maintaining the attitude of simple observation.Through analytical meditation, one by one the thoughts follow one another, normally, but they are attentively observed by the conscious and as they arise, they dissolve in the unconscious, without causing subsequent reactions. The subject, understanding that the phenomena and the mind itself are in essence illusory, manages to remain detached from the continuous flow of his own thoughts and perceptions. The work done by attention in analytical meditation is similar to that of the Vipassana technique.

About the physiological effects of Sophia, the technique is basically a method of vital energy control through the respiratory rhythm, whereby the blood is decarbonized and recharged with extra oxygen. This extra oxygen is transmuted into more vital energy, which rejuvenates the brain and spinal centers. It is a unique system within pranayama that allows accelerating the evolution of the brain and the integral nervous system, achieving in 3 years the equivalent of what nature takes 1 million years of slow evolution to produce, to achieve Cosmic Consciousness.By stopping the accumulation of venous blood, the accumulative deterioration of the tissues is avoided. According to yogi masters, during advanced practices this additional vitality input allows transmuting the cells into pure energy. This is a subject that requires serious scientific research. According to this statement, this process would allow the teleportation of yogis through simple mental concentration.

How to perform the Samyama?: First we enter a meditative state, we focus our attention on the object of our selection, we deepen our concentration until the notion of subject and object become undifferentiated. In such a situation and state, through an act of will we modify the internal or external nature of the object, or both at the same time, within the fluctuation of space-time, visualizing such an event, internally experiencing it happening in our own Being that is modified. at par.This perfection of yogi self-control is only surpassed when the state of Nirvikalpa Samadhi Yoga is reached. Through Samyama the knowledge of the real nature of things is achieved and through this its control. This is how the so-called shiddis or psychic powers are obtained, which can cause disturbance and mental imbalance, for which it is advisable to renounce them and concentrate on realizing God, obtaining bliss and the supreme knowledge of Infinite Reality.

Father, forgive us and save us from the fruit of our sins. In your goodness bless us to have the strength to repent of every deed we do against your commandments and to pay the just price for our errors. In your love, Father, save us from your judgment, help us so that from you, in us, may triumph the will to renounce all evil. May the light of your love always shine in our souls and may we never again abandon you. So be it... Om, Amen, Amin, Aum. Because the times foreseen by God for the salvation of the sons and daughters of Man are now concluded, the power for the intermediation of sins has been exhausted, You must know that all protection from on High is being withdrawn from the world and concentrated at the feet of the throne of our Father.The angels are withdrawing as intermediaries of the divine light among mankind. It is now that every human soul must find the source of light within. Choose between hate and love, death and life, confrontations or peace, darkness or light.

The "I" is the root thought behind all thoughts. In meditation it is possible to isolate it and it remains the only witness of perception. By taking a step further and suppressing it, the cessation of the mind and the exit from Duality is produced, this is when one enters the plane of Nirvana. The technique is simple, it requires perfect concentration and relaxation. Difficult, but not impossible. The very cause of the mind, the root thought "I", is at the same time the exit from the state of conditioned existence to the Absolute. There is no practice or theory superior to this. You must experience, if you fail to isolate your root thought I, your concentration is still deficient and your nervous system is impure. You must discharge your accumulated stress. You can do this through the Vipassana or Synaptic technique, also through the Kriyas. When your mind is pure you will enjoy perfect concentration and achieve the goal. You must train to achieve the goal.

As a child, Maitreya listened to the Om and perceived the spiritual eye in the ajna chakra. During his adolescence, at the age of 16, he had a decisive moment for his later spiritual life. He went with some high school friends to see the movie "Brother Sun, Sister Moon" by Franco Zeffirelli and at the very moment when the actor who played the role of St. Francis of Assisi had the vision of God, Yogi's mind entered Samadhi. Leaving the theater in a trance-like state, he was drawn to the coast and went to the tip of a breakwater. There his "third eye" spontaneously opened and the night was illuminated. He saw trillions of beings occupying the firmament and all in chorus were saying "Lord of Heaven, save us!". Then he wondered to whom they were speaking thus, and as he thought this his attention was seized by a divine force from on High. Suddenly he knew that he was in front of the Creator, he saw before him a source of intense light, unbearable to see from the front. Surprisingly, she heard a deep and sweet voice that said to her, "Son, you are Spirit". After these words were pronounced, the whole vision disappeared and the darkness of the night, illuminated by the stars, returned.

In the middle of the oceanic solitude, in a clear night, I raise my eyes to the stars and I feel the upward pull of the center of the Milky Way and, the consciousness that everything exists because the essence of my Being exists, springs up in me. I know that if I were to stop the thought of the universe in my Being, the entire Creation would be reabsorbed into my nonbeing and from there I could return it to the sense of time and existence, within the same instant that I return it to me..... If I submerge my body and mind in the roar of my silence, the universe disappears for me, to fill my emptiness with me, though my body remains; now, if I stop the thought of the universe in my emptiness, it disappears completely, though its inactive singularity remains differentiated in me. From there, I can vomit the universe back into existence under my will. Here, the essence of my Being finds the ultimate level of the differentiation of non-existence; silenced from all thought: I am what I Am....

The light is within you, depend only on it and not on anything outside, nor on any other... Follow the path of the Dharma itself and no other, trust it and no other. Observe the impurities of your bodies and restrain your desires. Reflect that both pleasure and aversion are the origin of pain and suffering, therefore do not cling to them. Observe your soul and realize that there is no such thing as an ego in it, that your self is illusory. Restrain your attachments and thus detach yourselves from all sufferings. If you comply with all these indications, you are my worthy disciples. Practice fasting, prayer and meditation constantly and regularly, without ever abandoning asceticism. If you do this you will always be full of happiness. The most important thing is self-control of the mind, repress your desires and conquer yourselves. You must keep your bodies, minds and souls pure, for you depend on them for everything.

The Buddhist doctrine of Maitreya emphasizes the acquisition of knowledge and the awakening of Full Understanding, acquiring equanimity and the clear vision of wisdom, accessing a state of Samsaric Rational Nirvana, of Non-Duality within duality, transcending all suffering and selfish desire for personal happiness. In Emptiness, Full Peace of mind and Equanimity are more important than the intuitive powers of the soul.It is a matter of attaining Calmness of Mind and use of Pure Reason. Under the first system there is an interaction between the soul and God, under the second it is a philosophical state of the Self itself which, through self-knowledge, has succeeded in realizing its identity with the Absolute.This state of full awakened consciousness does not depend on ecstasy to develop, but on the capacity of ontological discernment, of logical reasoning. It is the product of analytical and applied scientific thought, being within the reach of anyone who exercises adequately the principles of the system of reflection of this aspect of the Root Reality.

1st Irrefutable Axiom: Man is born ignorant. 2nd Irrefutable Axiom: Ignorance is rooted in the perception of separability. This illusory vision is caused by the ego, which in turn depends on the false identification of one's Eternal Self with the physical body. 3rd Irrefutable Axiom: Ignorance has a limit, its end is the beginning of knowledge. 4th Irrefutable Axiom: The acquisition of knowledge is obtained by a double way, following the Path of Full Understanding. The inner path comprises asceticism, concentration, meditation and samadhi, until one realizes one's own timeless Self, One with the Absolute, the apperception of the impersonal God in oneself. The external way is through intense study, reflection, analysis, discernment, deduction, inference, investigation, experimentation, through the empirical and formal sciences. To understand the Self and Nature is the superior and integrating objective of complete knowledge.

It is not important whether God exists or not, what is important is the existence of the consciousness that you can experience directly, in which you can immerse yourself in deep silence and realize that you yourself are God. He is not alien to what you truly are. Your soul in you is God in you. When you penetrate into conscious silence the mind is absent and divinity manifests directly from your soul in you, revealing to you God awake in yourself.at the ultimate level of consciousness the individual self integrates with the Divine Universal Mind. Then one comes to perceive directly all beings, the entire Creation in one's own soul, no longer sees separation or differences between one's Self and all that exists. Nature, all living beings, the entire universe, all that one can experience are connected and interacting with our inner self, life itself expresses itself through us, it flows through our inner self, to reach this high level it is necessary to eliminate the mental contaminations, the impurities of our mind, which prevent us from the pure direct perception of reality as it is. This is the stage of the self-realized, the enlightened one.

What is Positronics? The method is simple, it is about focusing your thoughts and replacing harmful ideas with constructive ones on a constant basis. From the deep study, the paused and meditated reading of this book, blessings of personal spiritual perceptions will be born in you. God who is now conscious in me writes to you here, so that God who dreams in you, remembers through these gentle words the desire to be awake forever in you. The different instances of life test us from infancy, childhood, adolescence, youth, adulthood and old age; relatives, friends, loves, work, accidents, adversities, gains and losses. Our Soul crosses the river of experience and each new stage that appears and begins on the horizon of our perception and heart is a challenge and at the same time, an opportunity to take a firm step further in the deep knowledge of oneself and towards freedom. Each stage of development, each trial of the path is lived from the singular; but it is part of our special general human condition. For this reason, there is an abundance of studies, advice and recipes to preventively remove the stones from the path.

Nirvana in Sanskrit means "extinction". In other words, it is the extinction of worldly desires and ignorance, sources of suffering and ego. Through meditation and asceticism it is possible to reach this state of full bliss, which frees from the cycle of reincarnations. Regarding the latter, Maitreya says: "knowledge has advanced sufficiently so that we can now understand that thought and consciousness have a physical substratum, so that we are getting closer and closer to the understanding of the existence of God as an objective material fact and not as an immaterial subjective potentiality, and therefore, unrealizable and incomprehensible.We can now identify our perception of God, or the Absolute, with the Unified Consciousness Field or Quantum Information Field. The Fifth Force that regulates order in all Creation in the physical universe.God being now a real and not an imaginary fact, we can contact Him in a simpler and more direct way, as we have never done or tried before".

Assuming that women's empowerment would accelerate the pace of social change in rural Nepal, the World Bank urged the Nepali government to undertake a "e;Gender Activities Project"e; within an ongoing long-term water-engineering scheme. The author, an anthropologist specializing in bureaucratic organizations and gender studies, was hired to monitor the project. Analyzing her own experience as a practicing "e;development expert,"e; she demonstrates that the professed goal of "e;women's empowerment"e; is a pretext for promoting economic organizational goals and the interests of local elites. She shows how a project intended to benefit women, through teaching them literary and agricultural skills, fails to provide them with any of the promised resources. Going beyond the conventional analysis that positions aid givers vis-vis powerless victimized recipients, she draws attention to the complexity of the process and the active role played by the Nepalese rural women who pursue their own interests and aspirations within this unequal world. The book makes an important contribution to the growing critique of "e;development"e; projects and of women's development projects in particular.
