Yogic Mystic, Mark Griffin, the founder of Hard Light Center of Awakening, was a student of Swami Muktananda of the Siddha Lineage, who in turn, was a disciple of Bhagawan Nityananda. Griffin, who teaches in Malibu, CA, exists in states of Nirvikalpa Samadhi and identifies meditation as the core of his teaching. He presents ancient knowledge of the various strands of Yoga dating back to the Vedas in contemporary terms, both mystical and scientific. In the summer of 2008, Mark offered a series of teachings centered around Spiritual Power -its importance in the pursuit of enlightenment, its acquisition and its use, which are presented in this book. Power is possibility. All possibilities are related to the presence or absence of power. There's different kinds of power. There is the power of the City, which is social power, higher and lower classes, economic power, having a lot or having a little. That's one kind of power. There's also a kind of power that is just sheer force. Sometimes it's quiescent, sometimes it's wrathful and swift. We will be studying the unseen power of spirit. It is the true power. It is awesome. It is terrifying. And it is exact. When you get involved with power, everything that you bring to the situation is manifest. You come to understand who and what you truly are. This is why it's a little bit dangerous, and why you want to have as much training as possible when you come in to more and more access with power. There are deep challenges to attracting, gaining, storing and integrating power. This is what spiritual training is about, and this is the basis of our work. Mark Griffin
