INCREASING/MAINTAINING YOUR LEVEL OF "SPIRITUAL ENERGY/POWER"   
 SPOWER.TXT
******************************************************************************
IF THE NAME OF THE GAME IS INCREASING YOUR "SPIRITUAL POWER";

THE GREAT TEACHERS OF THE EAST STATE THAT THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE, ALL BEINGS
IN THE UNIVERSE AND ALL MATERIAL THINGS IN THE UNIVERSE ARE "MADE" OUT OF
SHAKTI PARTICLES (energy). THAT SHAKTI IS PARTICLE AND IS ENERGY.
THIS PURPORTEDLY COULD BE CONCEIVED AS THE SMALLEST "PARTICLE" IN THE
UNIVERSE, I.E. THE PARTICLE THAT ALL QUARKS, NEUTRINOS, ELECTRONS, ATOMS ETC.
ARE MADE OF.

IF ONE WISHES KEEP ONE'S LEVEL OF "SPIRITUAL POWER/ENERGY" AT THE HIGHEST
LEVEL THAT ONE CAN MAINTAIN, THERE ARE CERTAIN THINGS ONE CAN DO ON AN
EVERYDAY BASIS TO INCREASE AND KEEP THEIR SPIRITUAL ENERGY HIGH.

* (THE TEACHERS STATE THAT AT NIGHT, WHEN ONE ENTERS DEEP SLEEP, A CERTAIN
  AMOUNT OF SHAKTI ENTERS ONE'S BODY/SOUL AND CAUSES THE BODY/SOUL TO REST
  AND RENEW ITS SELF. AFTER ONE AWAKES AND ALL THROUGH THE DAY, THAT SHAKTI
  IS USED/DISCHARGED AND ONCE AGAIN IS RENEWED IN DEEP SLEEP.
  WHEN ONE ENTERS DEEP MEDITATION, ONE IS "FILLED" WITH SHAKTI, THE QUANTITY
  OF SHAKTI THAT ENTERS ONE IS "MUCH MORE" THAN ONE "GETS" IN DEEP SLEEP.)

SO FOR ONE WISHING TO HAVE "HIGH" SPIRITUAL ENERGY AND KEEP THE "LOSS" OF THAT
ENERGY TO A MINIMUM, ONE CAN DO THE FOLLOWING:

1.  SPEAK AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE EACH DAY, I.E. KEEP THE NUMBER OF WORDS SPOKEN
    TO THE NECESSARY MINIMUM.
2.  WEAR 100 % NATURAL FIBER CLOTHES AND DRESS SIMPLY.
3.  EAT AS LITTLE MEAT EACH DAY AS POSSIBLE. (BETTER YET BECOME A VEGETARIAN)
4.  EAT AT LEAST A SMALL QUANITY OF RAW VEGETABLES EACH DAY, IF YOU CAN.
5.  WHEN EATING, GIVE YOUR FULL ATTENTION TO THE FOOD YOU ARE EATING. (IF
    THOUGHTS KEEP ARISING WHEN YOU ARE EATING, DO MANTRA WHILE YOU EAT.)
6.  KEEP A CONSISTENT SCHEDULE EACH DAY, GO TO SLEEP AND GET UP AT THE SAME
    TIMES EACH DAY AND MAKE SURE YOU GET ADEQUATE SLEEP EACH AND EVERY NIGHT.
7.  DRINK ALCOHOL IN SMALL AMOUNTS ONLY.
8.  DO NOT USE PSYCHO-ACTIVE DRUGS. (PSYCHO-ACTIVE DRUGS INTERFER WITH
    SPIRITUAL/PSYCHIC DEVELOPEMENT)
9.  GET SOME PHYSICAL EXERCISE EACH DAY. (AT LEAST WALKING.)
10. MAINLY "HANG OUT" ONLY WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE INTO GROWING, CHANGING AND ARE
    ACTIVELY WORKING ON THEMSELVES. (THIS IS CALLED SATSUNG IN SANSCRIT.)
11. "TAKE" SEVERAL "DAYS OF SILENCE" EACH MONTH. (A DAY OF SILENCE IS NO
    SOUNDS OR WORDS UTTERED FOR A 24 HOUR PERIOD.)
12. WHEN NOT HAVING TO DO "MENTAL ACTIVE TASKS", REPEAT A MANTRA CONTINUOUSLY
    IN YOUR MIND. (BEST IS A MANTRA IN SANSCRIT.)
13. WHEN "THINKING-HAVING THOUGHTS", TRY TO KEEP THEM POSITIVE.
14. KEEP YOUR BODY CLEAN AND WELL GROOMED.
15. KEEP YOUR "LIVING SPACE" CLEAN AND ORGANIZED.
16. SHARE SEXUAL LOVING ONLY WITH YOUR PARTNER, ONLY WITH ONE WHO IS AT YOUR
    LEVEL OF DEVELOPMENT OR HIGHER.
17. CHANT FOR 15 TO 30 MINUTES EACH DAY. (BEST DONE JUST BEFORE MEDITATION.)
18. MEDITATE EACH AND EVERY DAY! (AT LEAST ONCE PER DAY, BEST TWICE PER DAY.)

IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED IN LEARNING TO MEDITATE, ASK FOR ASSISTANCE.
