The conclusion of the short series of lectures about how to meditate without exertion. Discusses the purpose of meditation, a complete overview of the daily practice, how to see images internally, and how to understand them.

Although meditation is the central practice of the Gnostics, it is not merely concentration practice or even a revolutionary ethical discipline; the Gnostic method is a Mahayana ethic, dedicated to relieving all beings of suffering.

This lecture continues the explanation of the foundation required for meditation. Buddhism teaches that there are three trainings: (1) Ethical Discipline, (2) Concentration, (3) Wisdom. Ethical Discipline is the transformation of wrong action into right.

How to establish the essential basis for an effective meditation practice. Includes an overview of the ten non-virtuous actions, their karmic consequences, and how to disempower karmic tendencies and turn ones life towards positive results.

An extensive examination of the most important foundations for a strong meditation practice. Includes a detailed explanation of the important scripture “Three Principal Paths” by Tsong Khapa.

Meditation is the central practice of Gnosticism. Yet, to meditate properly requires that no exertion be made. To learn this requires a daily effort to stabilize the consciousness in equanimity.
