More quotes by Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
The only way you will advance spiritually is through humility.

Frederick Lenz
That's why we call this a dark age. It's a dark age in the sense that there are so many people on the earth who are un-attuned that they create such a level of white noise, in a sense, that it drowns out things that we'd like to see.
Frederick Lenz
The teacher will perform miracles. Not just to delight and amuse people, but showing them that miraculous occurrences indicate that there is something more.
Frederick Lenz
What is there when the ego is gone? Eternity, love.
Frederick Lenz
When you realize that the ego is making you miserable you don't identify with it. You identify with your soul's humility and the ego dissolves.
Frederick Lenz
If you are happier than you have ever been, then your power is increasing. But is it a fast a rate of climb as you would like?
Frederick Lenz
The top of the band would be happiness, contentment and peace of mind.
Frederick Lenz
Zen is a study. It's a discipline. It involves the active use of will to make things happen or not happen. These are the secrets of power.
Frederick Lenz
