L. Ron Hubbard discovered that the mind has two very distinct parts. One of these—the part that you consciously use and are aware of—is called the analytical mind. This is the portion of the mind which thinks, observes data, remembers it and resolves problems. It has standard memory banks which contain mental image pictures and uses the data in…[Read more]

These matters also sadly coincided with TKV Desikachar having to increasingly withdraw from teaching and public contact over this past decade due to his deteriorating mental health. This decline led to his passing away on August 8th 2016 at 2.45am Madras time. We can but reflect on the loss of the light and clarity he offered to all who had the…[Read more]

In the end, I think, if some practice doesn’t make sense in some situation, one should look what else there is available in the alchemical toolbox and choose something new.

What would seem to be missing here is what Carlos Castaneda calls ‘recapitulation’ and L. Ron Hubbard ‘returning’.
