An analysis of how Sophia's gazing into the veil of the Treasury of the Light, in a mistaken way, creates her own suffering; how this is related to our impressions within and outside of meditation; how this is related to Dzogchen's five colored lights, five wisdoms, and five poisons.

If you cannot see internal images at will, then you do not know how to meditate.

If this statement surprises you, then please consider the roots of the word meditation.

People today mistakenly believe that the word Gnostic refers only to a few groups that were active in the Middle East almost two thousand years ago, and left behind the so-called gnostic gospels or gnostic scriptures. In reality, those groups were not isolated or unique. They were part of a worldwide tradition found on every continent, whose roots are not in the physical world at all.

In fact, Jesus, the greatest gnostic of all and the inspiration for the so-called gnostic scriptures and the modern Christian tradition, is a master of Kabbalah and Judaism. He is a master of Egyptian, Indian, and Tibetan teachings. That is why we find so much of them in his teachings. Therefore, the so-called "gnostic" and Christian scriptures are not separate from those other traditions. All of these teachings are rooted in the same source, so it is a mistake to try to isolate one from another. That only leads to confusion and misunderstandings.
