Quote

Most people are not in the world of awe and wonder. They're in the world of deadness. Their perceptual fields and bodies are completely self-reflective, and all they see is themselves wherever they go.

The people who imprinted us are not completely happy and they are not completely powerful. So naturally, we have to fight our whole life against that imprinting.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The challenge of power is how to use it and not abuse it. When you abuse it, it reverses on you and it hurts you.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Who wants to be stuck in being religious and being spiritual either? That's not freedom. You've just exchanged handcuffs for leg irons - which doesn't mean that you should avoid enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
Image
They've got lots of theories, books, sciences - I've read a lot of those books. Most of them are pretty unhappy.
Frederick Lenz
Image
There is a difference between willing and forcing. Willing something simply means you are not being lazy. Forcing something means you are trying to do something inappropriate or in an inappropriate way.
Frederick Lenz
Image
It is acceptance of the will of God - waiting, if necessary, forever, happily rising above your desires and above your frustrations to always do what is right. Always do what is right. This is the spiritual study.
Frederick Lenz
Image
In self-giving you must be so careful of egotism. You must be so careful when you are aiding others in their liberation not to have a sense of self.

Image
The key to gazing is stopping thought. Gazing is a soft focus you are touching something with your luminosity. If you could but look into the mountains you would see a diffuse glow.

Image
The practice of mindfulness is monitoring your mind all day and all night. It's enjoyable to just remove things that make you unhappy from your mind, to clarify your emotions.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Thought is the ultimate tonal. Each thought is like a dike that blocks out the nagual.

Some people travel to other dimensions in their astral bodies when they meditate.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You are on a vast wheel of birth and death. You have been through thousands of lifetimes, thousands yet to come.
Frederick Lenz
Image
I studied with a number of different teachers. But really, I've never studied with teachers. To be honest, the only thing that's ever interested me in life is eternity. Nothing else makes any sense to me.
Frederick Lenz
Image
It's a good idea to be in the physical presence of the enlightened teacher because it's not physical. You can hear the ocean from quite a ways away, but if you're standing right in front of it, it's easier.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If your intent is that athletics and sports are tools or devices to reach higher levels of mind, then your workout sessions become meditation.
Frederick Lenz
Image
There's no place to go. There's nothing to attain. There's nothing to be reached. Love itself is all that you want.
Frederick Lenz
Image
When you could get angry with someone and separate yourself from them, don't do that. If you have people who are difficult to deal with, be neither attracted nor repulsed. Go a step higher.
Frederick Lenz
Image
People want to will their self realization. They want to know what the right thing to do all the time is. There is no right thing. There's no code. There are certain basic recommendations.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Turn your life into a field of power and energy to draw from.
Frederick Lenz
Image
We pass through hundreds, thousands, perhaps millions of existences. In each lifetime, we're exploring another part of our own self, which is eternity.
