Frederick Lenz
Image
We hide in relationships. We hide in material possessions. We hide in ambitions, secret desires, hates, frustrations, jealousy, self-ptiy, in our insecurity - and more than anything our vanity and our egotism.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Many people who help me encounter a lot of resistance from other people and from forces.
Frederick Lenz
Image
In the high mountains and desert beings can affect you. Most aren't malicious, but some will lure you to your death.
Frederick Lenz

A real liberated teacher never asks for a commitment from a student. That's absurd, a person wants to be there and they want to learn everything they can.
Frederick Lenz
Image
God is limitless awareness. There, now I have told you everything I know about God ... a lot of good it did you.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Personal power is a feeling that everybody is looking for called satisfaction. It is different from enlightenment, but you need personal power to become enlightened. Personal power is not the end of the process.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If I can have an effect on influential women and men, if they seek me out because they are interested in self-knowledge and the fun of meditating, then I'm glad to help. That's why I'm here.
Frederick Lenz

We see the one light, the one unified reality that we see in others, is the same reality that is within ourselves. We are one with all of existence.
