Image
One should never become devoted to a teacher, any more than one should become devoted to a statue of a god. There is only one thing to be devoted to, and that is your mind.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Each time you dip into the well of existence it changes you. Rapid mental development is that process. It is a process of escalating your evolution.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The most giving souls are those who give when they don't have to give, who could just walk away from this world and its suffering and merge with eternal existence and bliss forever.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The types of thoughts that you think create a state of mind. The reason you think the thoughts you do results from your level of power.
Frederick Lenz
Image
We need a new imprinting. We need the imprinting of enlightenment, of freedom. That comes through our association with a higher being. So classically what occurs is that one meets a teacher.

Image
Clothing has a great deal to do with the attitudes and energy that others direct towards you. I favor the chic, and tend to avoid the trendy. I think that it's good to be chic when possible because it is more inaccessible.
Frederick Lenz
Image
For every action there is a reaction. Karma can be examined within the structure of an hour, a year, a lifetime, a thousand lifetimes.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Humility feels that there is someone, somewhere who can do anything I can do better - except one thing: no one can be better at being me.
Frederick Lenz
Image
At the end of the dream, on the other side of the rainbow, there's only light.
Frederick Lenz
Image
It's not my light to begin with, in a sense it's the light of God, the light of eternity. So take all you want!
Frederick Lenz
Image
Everybody out there is just doing things for themesleves. So if you don't do that you've got to be crazy ... crazy about selfless giving!
Frederick Lenz
Image
Eternity becomes more beautiful as we age, if we age well. If we age poorly, then we don't improve our minds we don't refine all the aspects of our being.
Frederick Lenz
Image
At the beginning of a meditation session your thoughts will be relatively earthbound. You will think about yourself, your world, problems, difficulties and anxieties.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Most of you are predominantly nagual. You have trouble with the physical life because you have devoted more of your attention to the mysterious side of your being.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The world is filled with people who understand. I personally value people who don't understand. People who understand have nothing more to learn. People who don't understand have hope. Do you understand?
Frederick Lenz
Image
If a spiritual being is naive to the lower aspects of the world, they usually are killed or die young. Did Jesus really know which of the twelve would betray him? I doubt it.
Frederick Lenz
Image
We don't always walk from one state of mind into another. We might just oscillate back and forth for a whole lifetime within the polarities of a certain state of mind.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Death doesn't change anything. It just gives you a new location. The physical mind dissolves. But the overriding state of mind that you die in is the state of mind that you are born into.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The Akashic Records are the impressions from all of our past lives that are available within our causal body.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Eternity gives life to all and sustains all, transforms all on the wheel of dharma - until all attain perfection.
