Enlightened teachers are not logical. They don't function from levels that are understandable to the human mind. They're not religious. Religions form around them, usually after they've died.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Opinions are secondary when dealing with reality. They're subjective reflections.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Advanced meditation is facing the immensity of eternity, embracing that which terrifies you and frightens you and loving it because it's God. You are God.
