More quotes by Frederick Lenz
One day after many, many lifetimes, we get wise. We decide that the fun in life is to give.
Frederick Lenz
In the world order, if the nagual dominates and not the tonal, then we'll live in times of fear and superstition.
Frederick Lenz
Even sickness becomes an experience that we pass through in happiness because our happiness is not dependent upon how our body feels, but how our spirit feels.
Frederick Lenz
The more completely you concentrate, the stronger your mind becomes.
Frederick Lenz
Kundalini is seen as a serpent that can shoot up the shushumna, past the chakras, opening them all and bringing you into different states of awareness.
Frederick Lenz
I know some teachers say that you shouldn't display the psychic powers and other powers referred to as the siddhas, but as far as I'm concerned, it doesn't really matter. There are no absolute rights or wrongs in spiritual practice
Frederick Lenz
It is only hard work that brings about results, doing things for others. Forget about your problems. Take responsibility for your life and make it into something beautiful in the midst of changing circumstances.
Frederick Lenz
When we talk, answer questions, I'm addressing your tonal. I'm teaching you a way or a series of ways of dealing with the world.

Buddhists don't feel that enlightenment is particularly unusual. We feel that it's the natural state. Enlightenment simply means perceiving life directly as it is in all of its infinite, ever changing wonder, in all of its varied, myriad states of mind or as pari-nirvana, or whatever.
Frederick Lenz
More men will continue to attain enlightenment than women, unless women change their use of the second attention.
Frederick Lenz
The kundalini energy is often compared to a snake that is coiled up. Because it is coiled up it can spring very quickly. It can jump and extend itself very far.
Frederick Lenz
When most people see a tree, they don't see a tree at all. They see an idea that they have developed of what a tree is.
Frederick Lenz
You don't have to meditate. You don't have to practice self-discovery and Buddhism. You should only practice self-discovery if you really have had it with the human world.
Frederick Lenz
The teacher will perform miracles. Not just to delight and amuse people, but showing them that miraculous occurrences indicate that there is something more.
Frederick Lenz
In pranayama you don't worry about taking breaths, you focus on exhalation. If you exhale properly you will inhale. The more deeply you exhale the more deeply you will inhale.
Frederick Lenz
By perfecting the practices of zazen and mindfulness, by learning patience and love and by realizing the essential emptiness of all phenomena, you will discover nirvana.
Frederick Lenz
I'm only here for a while, so I'd like to do what I can.
Frederick Lenz
What matters is that they are curious about life, energy, truth, and themselves and that they haven't sold out to the establishment powers that tell us what to think, what to wear, how to behave, what to believe in and what goes beyond the line of rational and irrational thought.
Frederick Lenz
In my very early childhood, when I was only 3 or 4 or 5, I would enter for many hours into meditative states in which the world would become light and energy and I would transcend the boundaries of the senses.
Frederick Lenz
There is no deterioration and there is no creation. There are projections, moments of existence. Each moment is perfect.
Frederick Lenz
