How do we find a way out? By realizing that there's no place to go, that there's no way out, that there's no way in. All that exists is the Self.

Naturally, to follow dharma, we have to find out what it is. You have to struggle with it. The answer will not come easily. You will be swayed by your desires, conditioning, and those around you who have ideas about what you should do, what is proper, what is improper.

When you are meditating, after you've meditated on the yantra or candle flame, simply try feeling gratitude. Sit and feel grateful to existence because you are meditating.
Frederick Lenz

Everything that can be and everything that cannot be exists somewhere.
Frederick Lenz

If you are afraid of someone, you immediately give them an advantage and give them entry to your awareness field.
Frederick Lenz

This is the age of electrical energy. The age of atomic energy hasn't really dawned yet, not in the way that atomic energy has evolved in other worlds.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The enlightenment experience is not what you think. How could it be anything that you can configure, anything you can imagine, any way that you think it should be?
Frederick Lenz

My teacher knew that I always had a girlfriend. For some reason, he never said anything to me about it.
Frederick Lenz
Image
It is acceptance of the will of God - waiting, if necessary, forever, happily rising above your desires and above your frustrations to always do what is right. Always do what is right. This is the spiritual study.
Frederick Lenz
Image
In their confusion and delusion, men hate the womb that gives them birth. Not all men, certainly , but enough men to run the world.

We are not really separate beings of light. That's a dream we are having, the dream of multiplicity. Meditation takes us beyond the moment to eternal awareness.
