In Buddhism we meditate. We make our minds quiet by learning to focus on the chakras, release internal energy that we call kundalini, and bring ourselves into high states of consciousness.

On the path of love we feel that if we love today, it's only because God is loving through us, because there is a special grace present with which we can love.

Practice mediation and concentration exercises, and begin to think more about regaining your sensitivity by avoiding draining situations. Not because of fear but because of intelligence.

It is not advisable for persons who are in the early stages of meditation to mediate on the two lower chakras. You will unleash powers and forces that will throw you into very powerful altered state of consciousness that might not be pleasant at all.

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.

Image
Work sustains us as bodies and it consumes a great deal of energy. The conservation of energy is the component theme of Buddhist practice and yoga. That is why people live in monasteries.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You are an endless conglomeration of awareness. You're not one singular self. You're a corporation.

Image
Karma is not a cop-out. The esoteric meaning of karma is that you are who you are, because of what you have done and who you have been.

Buddhism is the study of power initially. It takes a certain amount of power to even know your potential - to have the sense that you can change the way you perceive.
Frederick Lenz
Image
While it is possible to create all your own energy, most people feed off the energy of others. If you could see on multiple planes of attention you would be astonished!
Frederick Lenz
Image
Buddhism is the study of the way the mind works. One has to be able to hold a large number of relational concepts simultaneously in the mind. It is necessary to grid, to literally unlock realities and dimensions with the power of your mind.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Opportunities, creative ideas or the lack of them, happiness, frustration, brilliance, talent, success and failure - all are determined by the state of mind that you're in.

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