When I'm in the second attention, when I stop looking through eyes that have been formed for me by others, I see something else. I see power.
Frederick Lenz
Image
I don't feel that men have been wrong. I don't feel that women are wrong for using their second attention to combat sexual repression. That's just how it's been.

Consciousness, like a complex system of software, has thousands of levels of nested, self-accessing subroutines
Frederick Lenz
Image
If are in a situation with too many people in your life and you want to go into higher attention, look in the mirror. You are being blocked. Do something about it. It might be hard.

Meditation is like taking a shower. You are going to wash all the dirt off that you have picked up since your last shower and be clean.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Look at how beautiful life is, and just keep looking until you see it. You don't see what is in front of you because you're so distracted by your thoughts.
Frederick Lenz

Image
Death is not the end of who we are. It is only a brief pause in the endless cycle of our lives. Each of us is a spirit that cannot die.
Frederick Lenz
Image
A human being is bound by emotion, enslaved by their desires. A person is never really at peace with themselves because they live in the spectrum of human consciousness.
Frederick Lenz
Image
A mantra is a very powerful word. It vibrates like music does, only not on this plane but on other planes of reality. It creates a powerful force. It starts the kundalini moving.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Most people are operating out of repetition. If you come to work or school each day with the same mind-state, you probably can't get more out of it than you did yesterday.
Frederick Lenz
Image
All the joys in all the worlds of all beings who have ever been or will ever be, will never equal the perfection of one moment of absorption into the stillness of nirvana.
Frederick Lenz
Image
What is evil? There is no such thing. In Buddhism we don't recognize evil and therefore we don't give it any power over us.

Love more deeply and without the sense of what you love being your personal possession.

Spiritual balance is the principle that allows the mind to be still. You cannot expect the world to settle down, everything to work out, in order for you to be happy. You have to get control of your mind.

Image
While I enjoy teaching people on the basic and intermediate levels to work them up to advanced levels, my real talent is for the advanced students. You could say that I'm like a ninth-degree black belt in martial arts.

In order to effectively interlock with higher spheres of mind and attention, you must have tremendous balance and control. You learn that it is more fun to have control than not to.
