You can now learn how to visualize success and learn spiritual concentration at the same time. A small number of people understand completely the meaning of concentration; still less men and women actually know how to concentrate. The true meaning of concentration is to collect all of your attention at one point, but if your mind is distracted how can you concentrate? How can you concentrate if your attention is spread over a large area which diminishes its power, but becomes strong when focused on one object. Aim the rays of the sun through a sizeable lens to concentrate to a fine point, heat is created of such strength that it will burn most anything in its path. Likewise, unleashing the full power of concentration by scientific techniques, the causes of failures will similarly burn up. A lack of concentration is the root cause of most disappointments in the lives of people.
Do you know what the gateway to heaven is? It is the dormant power of concentration within you. There are caves of power that lie entrenched and unexplored right inside you, what if you could be trained to knowingly be in command to use the powers within you, you can accomplish much more than you ever thought possible. Therefore the gateway to heaven is concentration. Until you have constructed a sanctuary of silence within yourself and broken down the walls with which your environment has surrounded you, you will never unearth the gateway to power. You may shed some light on your insight of concentration by reading books on the topic, but the study of books will not provide you with the power to concentrate. Our development comes from personal experience.
Spiritual Concentration

To those who want to advance to the inner circle and learn the techniques of concentration and actually get a response from God must learn how to attain concentration and then put it into practice to gain its remarkable power. The inner circle consists of those who are constantly steadfast and try day after day, week after week, month after month and year after year to expand their minds and consciousness and will discipline themselves.
Not only is there a spiritual inner circle there is a spiritual hierarchy that govern and protect this planet. It was the hierarchy of spiritual avatars who so befogged the mind of Hitler and his minions during WWII with their invisible forces that he mistakenly chose to attack and invade Russia instead of conquering drained and weakened England from terrible losses at Dunkirk.
For those of you in Rio Linda spiritual avatars are not the one’s portrayed by Hollywood. When you want to learn about medicine or science you need a creditable teacher. When you are in the forest of spirituality or theology you must have a proper guide to understand the mysteries of God and the science of yoga meditation.
Impressive men and women put forth a good deal of time to go deeply inside themselves to find the true answers to meet their troubles head-on with the right solutions. To be like them you have to be able to put your entire mind on one object at a time. Then and only then when your attention is absolutely free from thoughts and sensations you are able to focus at one thing at a time. When you focus on God alone that is called meditation.
That should be the true goal but to advance in meditation you must go deeply inside yourself; detach your attention from your five senses of touch, sound, smell, taste and sight that stimulate and stir up thoughts which are your greatest enemies. Most people have no idea how to get into a state of silence let alone a state of absolute immovability. One must have complete forgetfulness of the body to go deep into meditation. As long as you are conscious of your body and you move around even once to scratch yourself, you can break the magnetic field and may have to start over to gain depth.
The spiritual masters tell us it is possible to get a real response from the Infinite and formless God. The master explains that God is spirit and will not usually talk in words but manifests His awareness as divine perceptions through the comprehensible vibratory sounds of Om or Aum and comprehended only by devotees with heightened concentration in deep meditation along with a steady increase of deep peace which is more restful than sleep. This experience of inner calmness transforms itself into a feeling of joy that percolates up your spine. Those who reach this level may call themselves “Sat-Chit-Ananda” by definition means ever blissfully conscious of your eternal existence. This is what real God communion is.
You may think to yourself “why is it so difficult?” The master explains to the student or disciple God will not manifest in any way unless you are totally free from the swarms of restless thoughts that streams into your consciousness. Your inattention indicates the worldly thoughts have not been removed from your mind. He will not respond and why should He if your mind is elsewhere. The master describes God as the duel God whom the Romans called the jealous God of two faces connected with doors and gates. A perfect explanation is His light is similar to a candle flame that can not tolerate the wind of restlessness. Free yourself from any uneasiness and his flame will blaze steadily in the sanctuary of your meditation. You have to be mentally alert with heart-felt sincerity when offering devotion to the Divine to get a response.
Next is the cultivation of concentration upon your spiritual eye. Your eyes must be turned upward to the center of your eyebrows. The moment your eyes go down you can fall asleep and lean forward like many do when concentration is not locked up at the point between the eyebrows. One of the true signs of advancement is seeing cosmic light and that light is right between the eyebrows and if it turns opal blue with a gold ring you are seeing Christ Consciousness. If you see that light in meditation beneficial changes will take place in your mind. When advanced enough upon penetrating that light you may see the five pointed star. However to enter the star in the spiritual eye one must have mastered the breathless state of yoga by learning the techniques of Kriya Yoga.
To learn Kriya Yoga you may read the book titled “Autobiography of a Yogi” by Paramahansa Yogananda, a spiritual classic that explains the actual meditation technique and is freely given by the Self-Realization Fellowship in Los Angeles California or the Yogoda Satsanga Society of India in lesson form, mailed to your home.
Most people who start meditating in the beginning only see complete darkness and get so bored they quit because they see nothing, feel nothing and hear nothing and are reluctant to make the required spiritual effort in the struggle to sit and meditate keeping themselves identified with the demands and comfort of the body when attached to everything.
Remember the words of the prophets “The harvest is plenteous, but the laborers are few.” What does that mean? The laboring devotee must grow spiritually on the soil of his meditative live. Very few people will live a disciplined life without interruption and meditate for the rewards of God-contact in this short season of life. If this is you, you must reconsider your values and realize you did not come into this world to lose yourself but to find your true self and not by blind beliefs nor an undeserved heavenly visitation or by hoping to be in His presence by the merit of death can the Lord of the harvest be attained. At the end of life the material man discovers he is without God-realization as well as the riches of worldly life that he sought after to protect and defend.
There are universal laws we are supposed to learn from our parents, but most fathers and mothers unfortunately do not know spiritual laws and we certainly won’t learn them at school. How are we supposed to be spiritually educated? We must become our own psychologist, psychiatrist, lawyer, and own doctor to understand these laws. We are warned by the masters if we violate universal or cosmic laws, we bring undue suffering on ourselves from the law of karma or from what is called by the masters the “unseen controllers” that record all of our actions twenty four hours a day. There is nowhere we can flee to escape our actions and man would do well by bringing himself in accord with universal laws.
Did you know in early times the sages of old threatened dire punishment to whip dark minds about universal laws. They had to use threatening words to make the people change. Unfortunately fear was the only way dark minds could be moved. As we look at those dark minds who lived in the past with total dismay, future civilizations will look at us in the same way. How could we with all of our intelligence have existed in such an uncivilized and primitive way.
This information was not collected from the National Enquirer but from a line of spiritual masters who spoke from a state of cosmic consciousness to offer us divine strategies while gradually on earth to build the great power of observation and discrimination.
