That's my sole purpose in life is to sit here today and tell you that you can do this, in any life. You can do this in one of your past lives, in a future life, or right now. I prefer now.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Physical circumstance will not cause happiness. Or if it does, there is the fear of loss. Now you are a slave to it. You have become bound to it.

Image
The best form of meditation is the sitting meditation. But work is next. Work is a great way to meditate.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Love can be used to drain people. Through eye contact people send a cord out to drain you long distance. Through sexual manipulation, anyone who can make you like them can drain you.

Image
The mystical kundalini goes the other direction. It starts at the base of the spine, at the root chakra and goes up.
Frederick Lenz
Image
There's a power that brings us to things, and there's a power that lets us move away from things, from people, places, experiences. And what you learn to do in metaphysics is accept.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If I have led my life totally deliberately, then when I come to the end of the diving board, I can just fall off the diving board and it will be perfect. I won't even remember what happened.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If you ever want to study acting you should be around an enlightened person for a while, because all they do is play roles, since they no longer have a self.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Purity is developed through caring. You need to care about light and the matters of light, truth, religion and spirituality.

Image
Yoga is a removal of the conscious awareness from the world as you know it - the world that you've constructed - through your focus within your mind, to something else.
Frederick Lenz
Image
When you are afraid of someone, they can gain power over you, meaning they can drop your energy level.
Frederick Lenz
Image
None of this matters a bit. Yet, of course, it matters at that moment. So we try to be mindful of the moment but it's fleeting.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Very often, in order to bring about stillness we have to be tirelessly active in the outer world. You might suppose this would agitate the mind. It will not, if it is the dharma.
