More quotes by Frederick Lenz
If you are trying to aid people in the process of self-discovery, what you have to do is confound them with so many concepts that are contradictory, yet each make complete sense in its own right.
Frederick Lenz
Up until now, women have depended completely upon men for their survival. You're dealing with thousands of years of history, where sexual slavery was the condition. While suddenly the laws may change, to some extent, the conditioning doesn't go away that fast.
Frederick Lenz
My teaching - of what is perceived to be a complex and foreign sounding religious philosophy - has become the target for people's prejudice and religious intolerance.
Frederick Lenz
The abuse of power manifests with phony spiritual teachers and phony gurus who tell you how to run your life and what to wear and what to eat, all that sort of stuff. They abuse. People don't realize that, listen to them and ruin their lives.
Frederick Lenz
There are worlds beyond anything you can imagine there are joys beyond anything you have experienced. There are ecstasies that are undreamed of, I assure you.
Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
There's no risk in doing a lousy meditation or not meditating at all. There's no risk in being convenient and comfortable. There's a lot of risk in the world of enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
People who meditate seek good moments forever. They know that there are other worlds beyond this world. They feel it. I experience those worlds when I meditate.
Frederick Lenz
Try to have a more expanded sense of that which you are. Feel that you are eternity. There's only goodness. There's only light.
Frederick Lenz
Your life is either getting brighter from moment to moment or it's not. If it's not getting brighter, it's because there's no risk. There's no risk in thinking instead of stopping your thought. There's a lot of risk in stopping your thought.
Frederick Lenz
In the training process, the teacher addresses two sides of your being. One is the tonal and one is the nagual.
Frederick Lenz
Naturally, to follow dharma, we have to find out what it is. You have to struggle with it. The answer will not come easily. You will be swayed by your desires, conditioning, and those around you who have ideas about what you should do, what is proper, what is improper.
Frederick Lenz
You must discriminate between those who claim to help you and only want to manipulate you and those who are free, who never manipulate.
Frederick Lenz
They'll kill you in a minute rather than deal with truth. It's more convenient because then they can forget about it and rationalize your death.
Frederick Lenz
Enlightenment means that you're in love with all of life, with not only immortality but mortality.
Frederick Lenz
When we meditate with love we go very, very high , above thought, above form. Your love will cause you to have a union.
Frederick Lenz
Sex can never bring about enlightenment. Only enlightenment brings about enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
How can you possibly overcome your fears, doubts, worries and other problems? You can't. You simply don't have the capacity. Fortunately, the infinite can do all of these things for you. How? Because it is lacking in nothing.
Frederick Lenz
