Just listen to your inner voice. You can listen the moment you start stilling and silencing your mind -- and it is not difficult. It is not difficult!  All human beings are potentially capable to know themselves. And the moment you know yourself, then nobody can take away your individuality. Even if they kill you, they can only kill your body, not you. Hypnosis can be certainly used.  If you learn how to auto-hypnotize yourself, you don't have the dependence on the hypnotist. And then you can use that auto-hypnotizing process for meditation. Sex simply drops like dry leaves from the trees. It is not that you have to make some effort. If you have to make some effort to drop it, it will remain with you. And if it is there, meditation is impossible; it won't let you be silent. It is one of the most torturous biological slaveries. It is good to get rid of it by experiencing it with totality and intensity -- don't think of meditation at all. Sex, lived totally, will bring you to meditation; and then meditation will be very easy, because there will be no biological pull against it. Your so-called priests, monks, saints, cannot meditate. The white man has always thought that he is carrying the whole burden of humanity, that he is responsible for everybody's salvation. It is not going to be so anymore. You have not been able to save anything.
