It's suggested that enlightenment has some tremendous compassion, some driving necessity to help humanity. I don't think that's the case at all. I think humanity wishes it were the case since it's humanity that writes the various scriptures.

Ask youself: Am I loving as deeply as I am capable of loving?

Image
You can make all the changes to the island of the tonal you want, you can take excursions into the nagual, but to push yourself into the reordering process is absolutely foolish.
Frederick Lenz
Image
When we see a hero, on the one hand, we applaud them on the other hand, there is something in a lot of people that wants to tear the hero down.
Frederick Lenz
Image
How do you know you're even here right now? Perhaps you're not. Perhaps you're far, far away and this is just a dream.
Frederick Lenz
Image
A mantra is a thought. Use a mantra to help you still your mind initially and then move into silent meditation.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Salvakalpa samadhi is a tremendous acceptance and liberation, but it is not complete absorption in nirvana, in that consciousness.
Frederick Lenz
Image
For every action there is a reaction. Karma can be examined within the structure of an hour, a year, a lifetime, a thousand lifetimes.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Unfortunately the student often feels guilt for not living the type of life that their Teacher suggested, or they feel that they are intrinsically bad and incapable of leading a higher life.
Frederick Lenz
Image
In their meditations, the high priests and priestesses of Atlantis had seen that the Atlantean civilization was going to end cataclysmically.
Frederick Lenz
Image
There is suffering and there is joy. Your life is very short, and then you're back again for another and another, forever, unless you step off the wheel.
Frederick Lenz
Image
I began to go into samadhi, not just occasionally, but every day many times a day until I reached a point where I could no longer distinguish between ordinary and non-ordinary reality. For me it is all the same. I am in a state of continuous absorption in the Self.
