There are many ways to meditate. When you meditate, you are learning how to feel again.
Frederick Lenz
Image
We have the possibility of being far removed from what we are, of beginning to taste it and feel it. That is direct knowledge. That is truth. Anything else is mere words.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You cannot compel someone to love. Love is like the wind. It comes when it does, it stops when it does, it changes direction when it does. Who are you and I to criticize the wind?
Frederick Lenz
Image
The ego holds us to this world. The ego is the feeling that you are. But you are not, nor have you ever been, nor will you ever be.
Frederick Lenz
Image
A person who wants to progress more rapidly and wishes to overcome unhappiness sooner, should try to find an enlightened master.
Frederick Lenz
Image
People focus on things that vibrate very slowly during meditation and because they are so open they make themselves really sick, psychically.

In meditation all the fake dull thoughts that you think, all the ridiculous philosophies, the necessities, all the things that won't matter a bit when you are dead - fade away.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Will is guided by wisdom. Wisdom comes from introspection, looking inside yourself, probing, studying the wisdom of the teachers, the masters and bringing that into your mind.
Frederick Lenz

It is better to agree with a wrong idea than to press a right idea on other people.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Be enlightened for you, just for you. No one else knows or cares. They crucified Christ, you know. They don't take real well, on this planet, to the people who see things differently.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Self-realization is a strange term. You don't actually realize your 'self'. If anything, you go away. The caterpillar enters the cocoon of meditation: A butterfly emerges - metamorphosis.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The spectrum that most people exist in this world is very mundane and very unhappy. Certainly human beings are capable of experiencing great joy and happiness.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Two people can be work at the same job, side by side. One person is working just for a paycheck. Another is working to perfect their being. Some people think that the material world will make them happy.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If we really reflect and discriminate, we'll find that all things are created by our perception, that all states exist within the mind.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The way advanced meditation is taught, the way I teach it, the way all enlightened people teach it, is through transference. We transfer light and power to someone else.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The pageant of life is divided into ying and yang. They're two circles. You can follow either circle and manage to develop enough speed to move beyond this world to other worlds, dimensional realities.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Just as your physical body is composed of tissue, organs, bones, and different parts, so your subtle physical body has many different parts.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The trick to keeping your meditation practice alive, not simply consistent but wonderful, is you need to bring a certain will or force into every meditation.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You have been imprinted by people in this world who take power from others. Most people drain each other. Or, what is worse, they are draining you right now, psychically!
