Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
Our adult personality is a mirror image of who we were in the last stage of our life in our previous incarnation.
Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
Every person I've known has had an effect on me, as have people whom I've not met in the physical in this life, but whom I've met inwardly, teachers from other eras - Sri Ramana Maharshi, Sri Ramakrishna and Lao Tse.
Frederick Lenz
