They reach the point where they feel, I can go into samadhi now. I can do everything on my own, and that's exactly where they stay, in the lower samadhis. There are many, many people on this earth who can go into salvakalpa samadhi.

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

Flaky devotionalism, bowing and scraping and sucking up to the teacher is very phony. It is counterproductive to enlightenment and spiritual development. What is necessary is mutual respect.
Frederick Lenz
Image
In sexual contact a doorway opens between people, and it is very possible for someone to be abusive at that time with energy.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The dreams of the self are manifold and endless and they exist in all the myriad worlds and conditions that appear to have solidity. When you're dreaming at night, something seems very real, but when you wake up the dream is gone and so is all that apparent solidity.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Everything that you are or conceive of yourself as being is just an idea. It's an illusion. It's a hallucination.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The Tibetan Buddhist realization is that mind does not have any particular qualities or attributes of its own. It's clear - clear light.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Do not be a sniveler. Do not say you can't be happy, you can't be enlightened. How do you know? It is all chaos.
Frederick Lenz
Image
For men, it's necessary to push aside that marvelous ego that tells you that you are all knowing and capable, and see that you are not.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Eternity gives life to all and sustains all, transforms all on the wheel of dharma - until all attain perfection.

Image
If you use your will all the time, then it runs out. You deplete yourself and then, when you really need it, it's not there.
Frederick Lenz
Image
With a teacher it is necessary to be sensitive to their directions most of the time they won't say much. You have to be still and silent to understand.
