    Yoga ist der Weg der Reinigung. Er beginnt mit dem Körper und führt zum Geist. Wenn der Geist rein ist wie ein Kristall, dann durchstrahlt ihn das innere Licht, das ist Samadhi. Buddha nannte diesen Zustand Nirvana. Im Zen heißt er Satori oder Kensho. Jesus nennt ihn Himmelreich. (S. 76)

    Seeker doesn't find the truth; The truth finds the seeker. A seeker tries to push the door of truth. He beats it, kicks it but it doesn't open. He tries to pull it but there is no handle to pull. Then he waits and waits. Finally the truth opens the door from the other side. Finally the seeker meets his true self which lives on the 'other side'.

    When the Buddha declares there is escape from sorrow, the escape is Nirvana, which is not a place, like heaven, but a psychological state of mind in which you are are released from desire and fear. And your life becomes harmonious, centered and affirmative. Even with suffering. The Buddhists speak of the bodhisattva - the one who knows immortality, yet voluntarily enters into the field of the fragmentation of time and participates willingly and joyfully in the sorrows of the world.
