Just remembering what you did in previous lives doesn't mean a thing. It's nice to remember that you had higher states of mind, but that won't necessarily get you there. It might even make things painful.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
We feel crowded by other people we feel crowded by social rules we feel crowded by ourselves, mainly.
Frederick Lenz
The dream is so thick the Maya is so thick. There's no magic as long as there's all this thought. So the first condition for the practice of higher magic is the stopping of thought.
Frederick Lenz
Nirvikalpa samadhi is another matter. I don't feel that's really up to us. That happens at a certain time when our being has gone through countless changes and refinements.
Frederick Lenz
As we go within the self, we discover that all the voices of our past lives are still there. As we peel ourselves, which is a process very much like peeling an onion, we discover that there are many selves within the self.
Frederick Lenz
Krishna says meditate and you'll see the various ephemeral worlds, the various ephemeral beings, all of them going through the same thing some are rich, some are poor, some are more knowledgeable, some are less knowledgeable - in countless myriad universes, forever.
Frederick Lenz
Some people think God should in some way come to you and assist you, should answer your prayers. Why? It exists in perfect ecstasy beyond the dualistic consciousness. It's totally oblivious to you. It has no interest in your life or your death - it doesn't matter.
Frederick Lenz
As the kundalini energy increases, as the energy of the psyche becomes more pronounced, which it does as thought becomes eclipsed by silence, all the variant mind states burn away.
Frederick Lenz
Physical perfection, working out, adds to your spiritual perfection if that is your intent.
Frederick Lenz
As you pass through bhakti yoga, as you pass through love, you're elated. You're fulfilled and you're joyous.
Frederick Lenz
If one becomes enlightened, as I did in past incarnations, we leave the structural universes behind. We don't even have past incarnations because the form that had those incarnations has dissolved into the clear light of reality.
Frederick Lenz
Psychic perception is a much more efficient and accurate method of seeing and knowing reality.
Frederick Lenz
To realize the Self involves an action, it implies that there is something to realize, that there is time, a temporal world, and that Self is not yet realized, but will be realized by the actor through action.
Frederick Lenz
You can focus on me or on any spiritual teacher. Spiritual teachers who have left the body, who are no longer on earth can help you too. When I leave the body someday, I can help people just as effectively if they focus upon me.
Frederick Lenz
Take short walks in the park down a happy trail.
Frederick Lenz
There is no final stage in nirvana. Nirvana is beyond definition. It is not quantifiable.
Frederick Lenz
Say, for example, you develop the ability to make parking meters disappear. It's probably easier to put a quarter in it. That would be the wisdom on the subject.
Frederick Lenz
If you stay in the attention you are in, then you can predict everything that will happen to you for the rest of your life.
Frederick Lenz
Some people speak of the Akashic Records as if they were on an IBM mainframe that's out there somewhere near the Restaurant at the End of the Universe.
Frederick Lenz
Nirvana and enlightenment exist just on the other side of your sensory perceptions and your thoughts.
Frederick Lenz
Just as when water is frozen in to a form as ice and then melts - so at the time of death, there is no death. The spirit simply changes form.
