Suffering follows the lack of wisdom.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The ego is a false perception of self. It's an idea, a transitory identity that we've picked up.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Meditation is not impractical or unrealistic, nor is it difficult to integrate with any lifestyle or age, in that it's timeless, although it occurs in time.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The effort to lift one's self into perfect enlightenment is a profound thing. It has nothing to do with individual will. It's a refraction of the cosmos. The cosmos delights in itself.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If you start picking up other people's impressions while you are meditating, then instead of clearing yourself, you are just going to completely glom yourself up to the point where there is no meditation.

Life is the power to perceive. Without perception there is no life, and what is most endemic to perception is power.
Frederick Lenz
Image
There is something to this fabric of life that is beautiful. If you find the world unpleasant, I don't think that is wisdom. That is a sign of a lack of wisdom.
Frederick Lenz
Image
When you realize that the ego is making you miserable you don't identify with it. You identify with your soul's humility and the ego dissolves.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If you think of others in a jealous way or if you become angry, immediately pause for a moment. It's going to pull you down and send negative energy. At that moment, pause and correct yourself.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Most individuals on earth are not drawn to the higher light at this time. That doesn't make you superior to anyone else. If you are in the eighth grade you're not better than someone who is in the fourth grade.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Some people meditate because they want to get the larger picture on life. It could get kind of discouraging if this was all there was.
Frederick Lenz
Image
A real liberated teacher never asks for a commitment from a student. That's absurd, a person wants to be there and they want to learn everything they can.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Selfliss giving rounds the edges in spiritual practice. Many people can meditate very well but they're still very egotistical.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Often, in the student's confusion, she or he directs anger at the teacher, blaming them for the pain they are experiencing, or for their own mistakes.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Each of the seven chakras references different dimensional planes. It is a turnstile that leads us into different dimensions. As the kundalini rises, the knowledge and powers of those dimensions will begin to come to you.

Be fair. Don't present your version of the truth to others. Lose your ulterior motives! Be accurate and pure in your presentation of the way, and you will become the way.
