Consider also:

  1. “Yama destroys the emotions. Niyama destroys the passions. } (Vedana)”
  2. “Asana destroys the static body (Nama). Pranayama destroys the dynamic body (Rupa).”
  3. “Pratyhara gets rid of the Objective. Dharana gets rid of the Subjective.”
  4. “Dhyana gets rid of the Ego. Samadhi gets rid of the Soul Impersonal.”
  5. “In the common practice of meditation the idea is to reject all impressions, but here is an opposite practice, very much more difficult, in which all are accepted. This cannot be done at all unless one is capable of making Dhyana at least on any conceivable thing, at a second’s notice; otherwise, the practice would only be ordinary mind-wandering.”

  • “Making love to Jesse was more like drugs than sex, nothing was static or confined to one role. Under my hands he was a girl, a newborn child, a flowering plant, a sculpture that I was carving inch by inch, the perfection of all my desires. He was not conscious of himself other than as something undergoing change and seeking to minimize pain, he was open to all possibilities.”
