Meditation is the quickest path to enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
Image
In pranayama you don't worry about taking breaths, you focus on exhalation. If you exhale properly you will inhale. The more deeply you exhale the more deeply you will inhale.

Image
Pain and suffering only occur in temporal time. They don't occur in the world of forever. They only occur in limited transient time, which is a state of mind.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The place that you gain the most power is within your own mind. Stopping thought generates power. That is why people meditate. The longer you can stop thought, the more power you gain.

Awakening the mystical kundalini prematurely is dangerous, because unless you have refined your being, you'll get all screwed up, entities, weird powers ... strange things. That is why I don't teach anyone how to open up the chakras.
Frederick Lenz

You identify with your self. You have a personal history. You have commitments. There are things that you want to experience and other things that you want to avoid.

The universe is complicated and we're not going to get it all in one night or one incarnation or one infinity.
Frederick Lenz

Image
Zen doesn't believe in the reconciliation of opposites because from the point of view of Zen, there is no point of view.

Image
Emotional control is essential for attaining higher levels of mind. The thing that the teacher looks for in a student is the degree of self-control, not coldness that someone has.
Frederick Lenz
Image
It is implicit in the self that the self will automatically evolve if you can dissolve it. It re-patterns itself after archetypal formations that exist deep within the mind.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If you are psychic, you can see into the minds of others. You can use that opening to aid somebody. Sometimes someone's trying to tell you something and they don't even know what it is.
Frederick Lenz
Image
What is enlightenment, anyway? I don't know if I can really put it into words, perhaps you can. I can't.

Image
The stars in the sky last for billions of years. That's nothing to the mind, nothing. It's an instant, a millisecond. The mind shines radiantly forever. But we don't see the shine because of the clutter.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Yes, there are siddha powers. Yes, you can heal people, transform attention. You can flood the sky with light at night so you can't even see the stars. But the greatest miracle is the spirit - it is light

My problem with L. A. was that I could see the air I was breathing, I don't particularly like crowds, and I was much better at snowboarding than I was at surfing.
