Your dharma is what kind of work you should be doing, what kind of people you should associate with, whether you should have a teacher or not. Dharma encompasses all things and it is specific to the individual.
Frederick Lenz
Image
There are the samskaras, the tendencies from your other lifetimes, ways of seeing, habits that are so strong, they affect you now. They are the operative situations in your life that are created by karma.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You can know the secrets of life. It doesn't happen to anyone special. You just decide that you want an uncommonly fine life and you will it.
Frederick Lenz
Image
People seem to get caught up in jargon like they get caught up in ashrams and power structures and they never become free. They become masters of jargon and power structures.

The best form of meditation is the sitting meditation. But work is next. Work is a great way to meditate.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You're always looking for the ultimate. It's kind of like journeying to Ixtlan. You're never going to get there, but that is no reason not to try.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If you keep focusing, gradually thoughts will become quieter and quieter, gradually the images will disappear from the mind. What is happening is the kundalini energy begins to radiate and rise, it causes the mind to be quiet.

Diet is highly individual. You have to see what your body wants and what is healthy for it.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You have to look at your own thought forms. Are you sitting around and thinking a lot of negative thoughts? These injure the subtle body. When you hate, when you are angry, you bring that energy through you.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Enlightened teachers and people who help them, have a lot of trouble. People try to interfere with the work and spread awful rumors about you.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If you respect your teacher, you do better. Respect is only good because it will help you. Real liberated people, what can you do for them? They've got everything. They are everything. They don't need to be worshipped or adored.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Be concerned with the welfare of others without any sense of self-importance that one is better because one meditates or leads a certain type of life.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Whenever I work with anyone, it is an opportunity for them to become more professional and do something for someone else.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Who's to say what's right or wrong? The courts and the society can be totally wrong. Nazi Germany, what did they say was the right thing to do? To destroy and burn Jews.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If we give purely, it opens up a doorway in our heart and it gives us the vision to see that those we give to are God.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The Winter Solstice is the time of ending and beginning, a powerful time -- a time to contemplate your immortality. A time to forgive, to be forgiven, and to make a fresh start. A time to awaken.

Image
Buddha indicated that the self, that part of you that incarnates from lifetime to lifetime was causal.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Life is composed of lines of light, fibers of energy, pulsing, still, pure being.

Image
Most people who have been enlightened in previous incarnations normally begin to regain their past-life enlightenment around the age of twenty-nine, when their astrological Saturn return takes place.

Only real love of the infinite will motivate you. While pain motivates, once we feel comfortable and the pain has stopped, we'll stop evolving. Love is a far superior spiritual vehicle.
