Some teachers are very accessible. They advertise a great deal, they go out into the public. If they're advanced teachers, doubtlessly they are very inaccessible in terms of physical proximity.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Most enlightened people can do miracles. Some have powers, some don't. Some people who have developed powers aren't enlightened.
Frederick Lenz
Image
We want to know what our self is. We are the sky. Our thoughts are the birds that come and go. You can enjoy the birds and their beauty, but it is the sky that lasts.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You must consider that there is opposition from other human beings and also non-physical forces that don't want you to succeed.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Happiness has to do with how quickly you vibrate, how intelligent you are, how subtle your awareness field is, how deep you are, how aware of your eternal part you are.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If you know that you have had countless lives, then what happens in this life is not quite as traumatic.
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
Self-realization doesn't imply loss, gain, even transition it's only a settling. The separate sounds on the beach, the birds, the waves, the wind. They all come together again, they blend, they harmonize.

Image
If they love another, let them love!
Frederick Lenz
Image
You are awareness. You are mind. You are not from this world. I mean, think about it, could you really be from here?
Frederick Lenz
Image
Mindfulness is paying attention to what is going on. Just look at beauty. Not just the beauty of things you see with your eyes, but beautiful feelings, beautiful awareness. There is no such thing as reality. Reality is what you make it.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Meditation is a refocusing on symbols. It's not emptiness. We are using symbols, doorways to step from one world to another, from darkness into light, from death to immortality.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Help the world in any way that you want to. I have found that the more light you give and spread, the more you will evolve.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Open up to the other dimensional planes so you can penetrate the mysteries of existence and enjoy the wonder of being, the wonder of being you.
Frederick Lenz
Image
There is an art, a science to gaining power. There is a natural force or inclination in all of our beings to accumulate power. The problem that we come into is conditioning.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Meditation is the pathway to enlightenment. Move the ego aside and be still, open, clear, bright and fully conscious.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Meditation will do you a disservice. It will confuse you more than clarify you. It will bring tremendous impurity in you - if you are allowing your mind to wander during the empowered experience.
Frederick Lenz
Image
As you go into light for longer and longer periods, as you progress in your meditation practice, you transform, you become illumined, you overcome all limitation, all sorrow, and all pain. You learn not to be bound by desire, and eventually you transcend death itself.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Things are not necessarily logical. Logic is a secondary source reference. Everything is what it is. We have decided to apply rationale to things. It makes us feel better.
Frederick Lenz
Image
A person without much power is easily influenced by others, whether they are physical or non-physical beings. Their life is easily ruined. They are blown around like a leaf in the wind.
