Ecstasy can be painful when it's intense enough, when the kundalini surges enough. The ecstasy is so complete, it's overwhelming sometimes.

In enlightenment you have to convince a teacher not only that you are worthy of teaching, but then that they should show you some of the secrets.

Satori is a brief flash. Suddenly the light breaks through. For a short timeless time we experience eternity in its unmanifest form. It's comparable to salvikalpa samadhi.

The process of eliminating the samskaras and reaching complete enlightenment is very technical, wonderful, and mystical process.
Frederick Lenz
Image
All beings exist ultimately in a condition of inner enlightenment. Enlightenment is in all things.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Reality is not the world as you perceive it. Reality is the world perceived through enlightenment. It's the same world but it's not the same world.
Frederick Lenz
Image

Frederick Lenz

The world is always ending and always beginning at every moment.
Frederick Lenz
Image
A good teacher will show you the ropes in the world of power. They will give you the wisdom that is necessary to be able to use power. You just don't give a kid a new Ferrari. You teach him how to drive it.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Karma simply means that whatever type of energy you project, or you allow to pass through your being, you will become for a period of time.
Frederick Lenz
Image
I love so and so, how can I let go of them? You don't have to. You do whatever you chose. What you think, you become. Your thoughts are strongly affected by those you are emotionally open to.
Frederick Lenz
Image
A human being can only absorb a small amount of the mystical kundalini, you can be exposed again and again to it, but it won't really make a difference. You can only absorb so much.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You are on a vast wheel of birth and death. You have been through thousands of lifetimes, thousands yet to come.

Ramakrishna didn't suddenly become enlightened. We had years of him meditating, seeking, crying to Mother Kali, going in and out of samadhi but after many years of this process, he was enlightened. He was no longer a finite individual.
