Love is, in its essence, a free, formless strand of luminosity.
Frederick Lenz
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.

I can throw a great party, but I don't know how to go to one. I can throw a party because when you throw a party you just work all the time. But I could never go to a party because I wouldn't know what to do ... I'd immediately find the kitchen and start to serve food.

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.

Why do you suppose that in the last 100 years technology has evolved a thousand times further than it has in the last 3,000 years? It's the level of souls that are incarnating. The older Atlantean souls are coming back. They have a natural affinity for communication, electronics, medicine, law and media.

Love yourself even when you don't measure up to your own expectations. You have a certain idea of what you should do and what you should be - it's only a silly idea that passes through your mind.
Frederick Lenz
Image
There is wisdom in not letting anyone really know who you are or what you are like. If you define yourself, people hold you in their mind a certain way making it difficult to change.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Perception is, in essence, who we are. We are what we perceive. What we perceive defines who we are.

Unfortunately we've seen meditation insulted in a sense with the image of ritual. You have to dress a certain way, follow a certain type of lifestyle, all that sort of thing, very culty - and that, of course, has nothing to do with the practice whatsoever.
Frederick Lenz
Image
In meditation what you are trying to do is simply get rid of your own junk. You are trying to move all the confusion out of your mind, all the heaviness, all the emotional upsets, all the impressions that you have picked up since your last meditation.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The universe is perfection. But there are different views that universe provides for itself to view itself. Beyond all views there is nirvana.
Frederick Lenz
Image
It is silly to drain others for when you drain others, you also pick up their vibratory force.

Image
Humility is the conscious awareness and acceptance of eternity as your body.

Image
One person will eat meat and it will lower their attention field. Another person won't even be affected by it because they're not in the state of mind whereby they'll be affected by it.
Frederick Lenz
Image
To think that this is the only universe, that the physical creation is all there is, these are the dogmas of our times.
Frederick Lenz
Image
At the time of birth an ordering takes place. The awarenesses come together they become specific until a person dies. At that point all those awarenesses, all that you have ever been or will ever be, go back again, into the great unknown.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You can lie to yourself and fool yourself and rationalize that the choice you're making is what is right and what is true and what leads to liberation, when it's actually only the fulfillment of desire.

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.
