Life is perception. We perceive through different parts of the body of the universe.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If you live in the city, it is necessary to get out of it on weekends. Then you will realize that most of the thoughts and desires you have are not yours. You will see what is you.

Unlock the power of the will. Learn balance and gain the knowledge and wisdom necessary to guide those powers, to succeed in sports and athletics.

You don't know why, but you know you have to go home. It's an eternal longing. It's Marvell's drop of dew wanting to go back to the sky. We're drawn by a force we don't understand, through worlds, through experience.

Personal power is the ability to go into other planes, to cross that threshold from one dimension to another. Why do that? Because it is there to do knowledge, power, and beauty lie in those other worlds.
Frederick Lenz
Image
How do you deal with meditating when you stop breathing? The trick is to meditate just a little higher and you won't even know that you're not breathing.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Thoughts can increase our understanding of a subject, or they can just as easily constrict or block our understanding of a subject. It very much depends upon the language we are thinking in.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The chakra is a doorway. These are doorways that lead you into other dimensions. But you have to focus on them to the exclusion of everything else.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Meditation is coming back to your original self, if we can use self without a sense of self. It's perfect, clear light, radiant, infinite mind of the universe, as it is, without identifying with qualities
Frederick Lenz
Image
We are not really separate beings of light. That's a dream we are having, the dream of multiplicity. Meditation takes us beyond the moment to eternal awareness.
Frederick Lenz
Image
There are worlds beyond anything you can imagine there are joys beyond anything you have experienced. There are ecstasies that are undreamed of, I assure you.
Frederick Lenz
Image
When you meditate you can stand back from your desire. When you silence the mind and there is stillness, only then can you tell if a desire is dharma.
Frederick Lenz
Image
In the Bhagavad-Gita, a dialogue ensues in the middle of a battlefield, symbolizing the battlefield of life which we are fighting through our illusions.
