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

Frederick Lenz
You cannot be born and you cannot die because you don't even exist ... in the sense that you think of existence.
Frederick Lenz
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
The person in the business suit who works on Wall Street, who does their work perfectly, is probably evolving a lot faster, if they also meditate.
Frederick Lenz
Human beings fear light and knowledge and power. There is a weird quirky sort of thing that happens with people. When you log on to the truth and you start to become it, it threatens them because they live with countless falsehoods.
Frederick Lenz
We preceive that God is in all of those we give to.
Frederick Lenz
