The shushumna is the tube that the kundalini passes up in the subtle body, and on one side is the ida and the other side is the pingala.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Reality is perfect light. It frees you from the limitations of this world, from the ugliness, from the unhappiness of limited perception.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Enlightenment is a lot like dying. You might wonder why there aren't more enlightened people. It is because they are afraid to die.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The ultimate horror movie for a really un-illuminated being is an enlightened person. They are scared of others seeing what they are all about and what they really do. They are scared of truth.
Frederick Lenz
Image
I am simply a human being who is fascinated by the life process.
Frederick Lenz
Image
As the prana current, kundalini and different energies begin to move through you, you will feel yourself moving and rocking. Keep the body still, otherwise that energy will be lost as it expresses itself through the physical.
Frederick Lenz
Image
As you become a powerful person, it becomes increasingly important to have periods of solitude. Take a weekend by yourself. Go up into the mountains or desert and check into a little cabin. Go by yourself.
Frederick Lenz
