To His Holiness the Dalai Lama

It is my duty to make a strong attempt to reach you, regardless of the very strong odds against this letter ever reaching your eyes. There is no real choice in this matter. It is a spiritual compulsion, which prompts the writing of these facts. It is also far more than just my personal hope that these meager words will have the power to convey to you what must be conveyed. There is every probability that the entire course of human history, (and perhaps even all life on this planet) hangs upon the thread of a person such as yourself being able to See the importance of this message.

Let me give you an example of what I mean by this. I read a quote from you recently to the effect that, "no one knows for certain what consciousness is". As a matter of fact, most people in this modern age seem to assume that consciousness cannot be known. Yet, I can assure you that not only can consciousness be known, but also that it's exact essence is clearly known.

Consciousness is composed of three elements. These elements are known as INTENT, AWARENESS AND ENERGY. Intent is the foremost among these, which guides the other two. Awareness provides a focusing agent for energy, and energy, (chi, ki, prana) then carries out what both intent and awareness direct.

Within this simple basis of knowledge, there is contained such spiritual power and potential, that the entire course of human history could indeed be changed drastically for the better. I implore you, I beg you, to consider carefully this knowledge of all knowledge, this science of all sciences. It is none other than the greater master and self-knowledge of intent, awareness and energy, which would propel the human race toward the next great threshold of evolution on this world. There is literally no other focus or knowledge, which can make that claim. Never in the entire written or un-written history of our race, has there been a more essential revelation than this. As you know, the primary basis for self is NOT thought, emotion, memory, ego or self-image of any kind. The primary basis for self is consciousness itself, and this fact is the foundation for self-realization and spiritual Mastery, such as what the Buddha expounded. But to go further than this would be to say that the human being is in fact, (as consciousness, atma or soul) intent, awareness and energy, and that within the greater mastery of these can indeed be found the shortest route to Mastery such as what the Buddha represented.

Some may call these statements presumptuous. But I will not apologize for having such realizations as these, nor for bringing them forward to the world. I endeavor neither humility nor egotism, but rather, simple matter-of-factness. For in truth such realizations ARE a matter of fact and nothing more.

The question now arises…will you hear the intent and content of this letter? Will you See the sweeping implications of this knowledge, and converse with me regarding the myriad details and subtleties which govern its' use and Mastery? If a person such as you were to reveal this knowledge to others, they would listen…to me they will not. Given this, I must at least try to suggest an in-depth dialog between us regarding such matters, and to promote the necessity of conveying such knowledge to the world at large. Like you, I am dedicated to the expansion of consciousness and the self-realization of all people. Let us find such time and common ground to speak of these matters, not so much for our own sake, but for the sake of the welfare of all life on this planet.

Love and Clarity to you, my brother,
