A man’s presence — his depth of awareness — is his most valuable asset

Right now, you are knowing who you are at depth or you are avoiding it. You are relaxing and embodying your souls purple on earth or you are resisting your calling

Fear is lack of trust in now. Fear is saying “no” to some aspect of the present moment

When he knows himself to be self-radiant awareness, conscious and lit up, awakening as man, he blooms in perfect harmony with the immense energy of reality

We are designed to outgrow everything — including our desire to experience and improve the realms of money, sex, and intimacy

Live completely. Know your deepest purpose. Give the gift you were born to give

Sexual polarity fades unless in moments of intimacy one partner is willing to play the masculine pole and one partner is willing to play the feminine

When you deny your true core you deny the possibility of true and real love. Love is openness, through and through. A person who defines their own essence and hides their true desires is divided and unable to relax into the full openness of love

As long as life continues, the creative challenge is to tussle, play, and make love with the present moment while giving your unique gift

Love with an open heart even if it hurts

Only when the front of your body is relaxed and opened, you left breath full and deep, and your gaze unguarded and directly connect with another persons eyes, can your fullest intelligence manifest spontaneously in the situation

A man must love his father and yet be free of his fathers expectations and criticisms in order to be a free man

Where a man’s edge is located is less important than whether he is actually living his edge in truth, rather than being lazy or deluded

A fearful man who still leans into his fear, living at his edge and putting his gift out from there, is more trustworthy and more inspirational than a fearful man who hangs back in the comfort zone, unwilling to even experience his fear on a day to day level

Eternity must be a man’s home, moment by moment. Without it he’s lost always striving grass been a puff of smoke. Amendments do anything necessary to cleanse, and then stabilized, this ever fresh realization, and organize his life around it

Make your life in the ongoing process of being who you are, at your deepest, most earful levels of being

What happens when you simply? Effortlessly, allow attention to subside into its source

If you were like most men, you have strong strong habits that rivet your attention to the events in tasks of the day

Feel the truth of who you are

Your purpose must come before your relationship

If a man prioritizes his relationship over his highest purpose, he weakens himself, dis serves the universe, and cheats his woman of an authentic man who can offer her full, undivided presence

Unless you know your mission and have aligned your life to it, your core will be weakened

The next time you notice yourself giving in to your woman, postponing your mission and denying your true purpose in order to spend time with her, stop

In any given moment, a man’s growth is optimized if he leans just beyond his edge, his capacity, his fear. He should not be too lazy, happily stagnating in the zone of security and comfort

Few men are willing to give their deepest genius, their true endowment, the poetry of their very being, with every thrust of sex and life. Most men are limpened with doubts and uncertainties. Or they hold back their true drive because of fear

The secret of success is to discipline your life so that you support your deepest purpose and minimize distractions and detours

Every moment of your life is either a test or a celebration

The most erotic moment for a woman is feeling that you are Shiva, the divine masculine: unperturbable, totally loving, fully present, and all-pervading. She cannot move you, because you already are what you are, with or without her

The most loving women are the women who will test you the most. She wants you to be your fullest, most magnificent self

The masculine means what it says. A man’s word is his honor. The feminine says what it feels. A woman’s word is her true expression in the moment

The masculine grows by challenge, but the Feminine grows by praise. Praise her freely

A man gets resentful and frustrated with his woman when he is too afraid, weak, or unskilled to penetrate her moods and tests into love

The whole point of an intimacy is to serve each other in growth and love

One of the largest gifts you can give your woman is your capacity to open her heart when it is closed

Both of you will grow more by your giving than by tolerating

A superior man sees his woman’s moods not as a curse, but as a challenge and an amusement

If you’re not skillful enough to serve her, or she is not willing enough to receive your gifts, perhaps you were with the wrong woman

One of the deepest feminine desires in intimacy is to be able to relax and surrender, knowing that he man is taking care of everything

The game of life is to find each situation workable, to transform each occasion through the magnification of love, to give your fullest gift in every moment, and to have no attachments to the outcome, knowing it’s all going to rise and fall and rise again

Self-discipline is not self-suppression. Suppression is when you resist and fight against your desires, keeping them as buried and unexpressed as possible. Self-discipline is when your highest desires rule your lesser desires, not through resistance, but through loving action grounded in understanding and compassion

The divine masculine is consciousness

Do not allow yourself to be swayed from your truth, from the direction of your heart

The money is secondary. If you were poor buy totally conscious, happy, full of integrity, fearless, humorous, loving, and giving of your fullest gift to the world and to your woman, she wouldn’t complain about lack of money

The deeper issue is that you didn’t do what you said you would. You gave her your word, and you didn’t follow through. She can’t trust what you say. And this hurts her, deeply

Your word is a demonstration of your purpose

When she complains about you watching TV, it is usually more a complaint about your whole life, your lack of persistence and clarity

Although she would never admit it, she wants to feel that her man would be willing to sacrifice their relationship for the sake of his highest power

Women want to know why when you ask for something

If you have discovered the purpose springing from your deepest core, and if your entire life is aligned by this deep purpose, your woman will feel the truth of your choices. Though she may not always like your choices, she will love them, and she will love you for having the courage to live your truth

The feminine responds to the moment of energy, forgetting her man’s history of past behavior

Restore love and happiness in the present moment, don’t justify your little mistake by referring to your long line of successes

You become more responsible by knowing your deepest purpose, and then arranging your finances and spiritual life from that knowingness

To truly ravish your woman in love, you must yield yourself in the worship and trust of her heart, which, in truth, is your heart

If your purpose is to become ever more free of your self-burdens and give your true gift to the world, then a spiritually mature woman — who won’t let you slather in your comfy habits of security and distraction — may be an excellent ally for your journey

A superior man circulates the energy of arousal throughout his body, taking particular care not to let it stagnate in swollen fantasies or appendages

The superior man knows that he is only truly happy when giving his gift, fully and to the last drop

Women can attract you, heal you, and inspire your gifts, but they will never satisfy you absolutely. Never

You are that which you seek, but you have left your own deep ness and are looking elsewhere

The principal bodily key to mastering the world and women is maintaining a full and open front of the body at all times. The best method is through full and relaxed breathing, drawing energy down the front, and freeing attention from neurotic self-concern

If the front of your body has accumulated tension, throughout the day and throughout the years, you will hardly be able to sit up straight. Your belly and chest will be tight. Your thoughts will center on yourself. Your energy will remain constrictive in your head and awareness limited to self-concern

Your belly and lower abdomen are special places of power. If your breath does not reach these areas, you can’t recharge your batteries. You will feel weak and unsure of yourself. Your effect in the world will be minimal, less than your full potential

Inhale deeply, through your nose, and breathe through whatever tensions you notice in your body. Inhale deeply into your lower belly. Then exhale

Whenever you notice that you are mulling over your own problems, knotting energy into your body as tension, take that energy and create a gift for others

Instead of tending your muscles as you become sexually stimulated, learn to relax them

Feel your partner more than you feel yourself

Throughout the day and during the sexual session, practice breathing so that your inhalation moves energy down the front of your body and the exhalation moves energy up your spine

Your woman’s core is fulfilled by love. Your core is released from stress by aligning your life with your mission

Your success depends on your commitment to discovering your deepest truth and aligning your life with it

Take away anything that dulls your edge. No newspapers or magazines. No TV. No candy, cookies, or sweets. No sex. No cuddling. No reading of anything at all while you eat or sit on the toilet. Reduce working time to a necessary minimum. No movies. No conversations that isn’t about truth, love, or the divine
