As I travel around the globe I stay with and meet a lot of wonderful people. Some of those people are happy to have tasted my Super Intelligent Powerballs. I call them the Brahmananda Balls, which is a combination of Brahman (the Divine ground of all matter) and Ananda (bliss)--meaning Eternal Bliss Balls. This recipe is very versatile. You can make it pretty much any way you like, so long as a few core principles are followed.

I use to use spirulina, ginseng, royal jelly (from bees), and bee pollen. Read on to see the list of powerful ingredients that goes into my Swamp Water now.
In this audiocast we shall take a look at the veil of concepts in the mind and the experience that resides behind that veil... freely accessible to those who dare to go beyond it, for those who dare to let their concepts go. Awareness and bliss are forever present, forever at hand for those who open their hand and let go of what it tightly holds.
