Steve, very nice website. I just read the first material in the link. Some citations I find particularly true:

"Thoughts have the power of materialization.
 Therefore you have to change your process of thought. There is no other way!"

"You have to learn to immediately counteract any
 negative thought. It's an unseen warfare!"

Also, many citations on the evil of TV, darn right! Turyiananda insists on the negative aspect of violence in TV. Personally I despise the banality, the shallowness, the triteness, the absolute uselessness of most TV shows. A few of em are good, usually the ones broadcast at odd times when people are working.
What makes me cringe most is the importance given to so called celebrities. In my eyes those guys are lowly parasites of society which should work hard to show they are worth something after all. I put them on the lowest rungs of the evolutionary ladder, if I meet one they have to convince to me they deserve a place in society. Lol, do I sound drastic? That's what I think actually. of course not all celebs are bad but in my eyes their status is something which should be redeemed by worthy actions.
