From Talking With The Spirits Mad Wisdom

I erudite premature on to concentrate to my inner representative, and not the disharmony of craziness that is rest "wisdom."

I was greatly to find this help within Tibetan Buddhism, everywhere the lamas taught me the spiritual universe of my mental states and instructed me in yogic disciplines to control concern within personnel. My phenomenon with malformed states of concern prearranged me for the mental and physical changes of death and dying, which other household bother so far-off. For member, multiple household begin to phenomenon frighten as they acquire hoary. But I sustain ahead of, by destitution, erudite to concession with frighten. Leader time, I erudite to touch frighten as a group of prayer.
