Fortifying The Vehicle – [proper structure]
In this incarnation the vehicle is our body ! In order to create a tool that can be shaped, developed and improved upon throughout our growth in practice and throughout our Earthly existence in general, we need to implement the concept of “Right Structure” 
In our bodies that means correct posture, the mechanics of natural alignment, integrated movement and the natural harnessing of energy created by our connection to Heaven and Earth..all bringing us closer to our final goal on the physical plane; Removing all obstacles.
This principle of “ right structure” is also a main element  
in the development of our character traits and has a major effect on our spiritual practices and mental discipline.
As in our physical practice, we need to be conscious of our behavioral habits and the condition of our mental state. Therefore, in “ refining the clarity” of our moment to moment consciousness or “mindfulness” we must direct the mind in stillness. My master often told me that the way I think directs the way I act. ..
And so, he directed me to practice training my mind to develop positive mental habits, strengthening the inner structure by stabilizing the mind with meditation and to seek emptiness in contemplation of the whole and perceive the whole while contemplating emptiness.
