Path to Happiness…open letter!

This is an open letter to all seekers of a better way. A better way in this life-time for the here and now! My whole life has been searching for that better and more complete life. Understanding that this life is more than the daily struggles to exist on this planet for how many years…and in the end…be sitting in one of those retirement homes for the impaired and aging. I have seen those homes…, my grandmother was in one of them…, and it shortened her life…as it shortens any who enter those depressing doors.
Is this what we all struggle for so long…only to end up empty handed and empty hearted…and spiritually demoralized?
Well…it doesn’t have to become that way…to change for the better using the Neo-Think method. And that it all comes down to a methodology or road-map to climb those stairs towards greater awareness and understanding. I have spent most of my life searching for a way out of this sorry situation…and after number hits and misses. I thought I found it in Buddhism…but after nearly 20 years studying and practicing. I found that somehow it failed in making any real changes…in the direction I wanted.
By chance…(nothing by the way is by change…!); I found Neo-Think…or rather Neo-Think found me. What is it that saying…that which you seek…is seeking you!
I have found the true path to happiness that we all seeking…whether we know it or not!
May your path be found as well…towards that greater understanding…happiness, health and purpose!

The journey of a Buddhist to a Neothinker…

A journey I started over 30 years ago…seeking something greater than myself when friends started dying from AIDS virus.
AIDS and resulting deaths of friends…lovers; made me search for way in terms of understanding; and of attaining some relief from the daily assault on myself and rest of my tribe!
Discovering Buddhism helped me manage that pain and separation; and gave me not only hope but of a way out.
A way or path towards liberation…or at very least transmuting the suffering going on…inwardly and outwardly.
So I spent twenty years following Sogyal Rinpoche, author of Tibetan Book of Living and Dying.
I had my daily practice and went to monthly classes…went to the Clearlake retreats yearly. And even to France to attain further teachings; this time in the Ngondro practice.
However, there reached a point recently…where I felt I couldn’t go any deeper into the teachings. I suppose it had more to do with lack of faith…maybe lack of application. But I couldn’t integrate the teachings I received or all the practices that were designed to elevate.
That is where Mark Hamilton came into my life with first his three volumes…giving me a road map; a way of getting out of this sorry mess. Not only getting out of my existential dilemma; but of achieving something greater…a way of expanding my consciousness to much greater degree!
So thank-you Mark Hamilton for your continue guidance; and empowering mentoring!
