What do the Dalai Lama and Carlos Castaneda have in common? The effective use of energy and awareness.

In Roger Cantu's new book, POWERFUL MENTAL DEVELOPMENT, readers take a journey through the land of power, energy, and awareness. After many years of studying the teachings of some of the most enlightened people in our times, Roger Cantu has created a step-by-step guide to helps us gain control over our time, life, and mind.

"This simple method encompasses an effortless practice of meditation and self-discovery," says Cantu. "This method teaches the readers how to have an alert, poised mind, a happy mind, a relaxed and balanced mind. You will be more successful at work, in school, and in all phases of being." The essence of this method is the study of the development of different states of mind and their effects on our awareness and experiences. This type of mental evolution is the main theme in POWERFUL MENTAL DEVELOPMENT.

"Mental evolution means to understand and experience the different patterns of your life," says Cantu. "The mental pattern that you are experiencing right now, combined with your past patterns, creates new patterns that will ultimately affect your future. As you learn to practice POWERFUL MENTAL DEVELOPMENT, you will discover that you too can see beyond the normal level of awareness that most people experience. You will see that we are made up of intelligence and light."

"With the practice outlined in POWERFUL MENTAL DEVELOPMENT, you will learn to still your mind completely, to stop your thoughts from bothering you, and to become more conscious. The curtain of darkness will part and you will find a new life, one you have never experienced before."

POWERFUL MENTAL DEVELOPMENT includes quotes from books by the 14th Dalai Lama, Sri Sathya Sai Baba, Rama, Carlos Castaneda, Lama Ole Nydahl and others. The book also includes personal experiences and anecdotes with some of these great teachers.

Some of the topics included in this book are: the journey of self-discovery; merging the heart and mind; meditation techniques; increasing your energy; how to develop willpower; the essence of happiness; wisdom, knowledge and kundalini; career development; mindfulness; stress management; overcoming fears; success in sports; karma -- the law of cause and effect; and personal power.

He has a degree in Psychology from Chapman University, Orange, CA. He has traveled through India studying Buddhism and Hinduism from different points of view.

All I can say is I have started reading a few sections, which appeared relevent to me straight away - especially the part about confronting your fears with the roaches !! Exactly the same for me (coming from the UK to Oz was quite a shock !!). Definately a book I would recommend (and have done) to my friends. Great work, and I love how you have made it so simple to understand. Kind Regards, David.

First of all, this book is not about Lama Ole. The reviewer above failed to notice that the author met Lama Ole recently. The author includes Lama Ole as one of his spiritual teachers, but that's it. This book is about Rama, meditation, and self-discovery. As far as a book on self-discovery is concerned, this book is great. The author has quotes from the Dalai Lama, Carlos Castaneda, Rama, Lama Ole, and many others to explain his concepts and ideas, but in no way he is misrepresenting any of them.

From the Dalai Lama to Lama Ole, from Rama to Carlos Castaneda, this book is filled with wonderful knowledge about power, meditation, and higher states of consciouness. I really enjoyed reading this book.

This is one of the best books on meditation and self-discovery I have ever read. The author explains in simple terms what you need to know in order to get in touch with your inner self. I read this book from cover to cover in one night. I could just not put it down. This is a great text book for people to learn how to manifest realities within your mind, and then manifest them on the outside. I highly recommed it to everyone.

This book was written in a simple to undertand language that explains the complex methods of meditation and self-discovery. I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in a wonderful basic guide to meditation, Buddhism, and mental development.

"Powerful Mental Development brings you an understanding of personal
power through the experience of meditation. You will find a new life
through this book."

This man is misrepresenting Lama Ole and his work. He does not have all the qualifications he says he has, or permission from Ole to be associating Lama Ole's name with his work in the way he has. I find his website to be very self aggrandizing, and suspicious. Diamond Way buddhism in no way endorses his work or has any association to the teacher Rama whom this author praises. I mean this man no harm, but I am disturbed by this kind of incorrect information circulating on the web.

This book help you to clean the Third Eye, but better if next edition appears in a soft texture.
