More quotes by Frederick Lenz
If you respect your teacher, you do better. Respect is only good because it will help you. Real liberated people, what can you do for them? They've got everything. They are everything. They don't need to be worshipped or adored.
Frederick Lenz
You need to turn your room into a place of power. It's a good idea to have flowers around, candles, incense, you know, happy things. Make your room into a beautiful place and keep it impeccably clean.
Frederick Lenz
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
You will gain energy by meditating deeply, by speaking the truth, by learning to be still and by avoiding the crowd, most of the time, not all of the time.
Frederick Lenz
The kundalini of the supraconscious has nothing to do with the shushumna. That light comes down, from the crown center and has nothing to do with the opening. It descends and inundates.

Buddhism suggests there are no elect. Everything rests upon your own self-effort, which is the good news because that means you don't have to wait around for some nebulous God to help you.
Frederick Lenz
Water always seeks the easiest path, the common level of life.
Frederick Lenz
There's a power that brings us to things, and there's a power that lets us move away from things, from people, places, experiences. And what you learn to do in metaphysics is accept.
Frederick Lenz
Some people use the sexual energy particularly during intercourse to take personal power from each other.
Frederick Lenz
Clothing is art. It's an expression of how you feel. I think that it's not so much a question of a certain style or designer, but of finding the type of clothing that works well for you.
Frederick Lenz
An enlightened person is not in touch with all the ten thousand states of mind simultaneously always. It would be very hard to go shopping let alone drive the car.
Frederick Lenz
Most people don't care much about enlightenment and the truth. They'd rather watch the Home Shopping Network, and maybe that's another kind of truth.
Frederick Lenz
Most people are operating out of repetition. If you come to work or school each day with the same mind-state, you probably can't get more out of it than you did yesterday.
Frederick Lenz
The intuitive wisdom that comes from your infinite mind can add to your creativity, success and well-being, and can take you to the threshold of enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
You can increase your capacity to absorb the mystical kundalini. I have 3 or 4 students who are on the path of mysticism, they can absorb more of it.
Frederick Lenz
Power is the ability to translate, that is, to shift from one level of attention to another.
Frederick Lenz
If all the members of a team have synchronized their energy and they have all subordinated their egos to success of the team, then we have a functioning unit. If we have a lot of hotshots who want attention, you won't really play that well.
Frederick Lenz
Advanced Teachers always forgive. It is inevitable that anyone who seek knowledge and power will make many mistakes.
Frederick Lenz
You're bound by the frame. You've become so engrossed in the movie of your life that you have forgotten that you're sitting there watching.
Frederick Lenz
It is necessary to do a very thorough examination of your life and to discover whether the people in your life, no matter how much you love them, are using you or abusing you.
