In no way can words convey the nagual. But they open up the possibility. They allow an admission on the island of the tonal.
Frederick Lenz

An enlightened teacher is able to put a tremendous amount of power through a person who seeks knowledge and escalates the evolution of the individual.

You must learn to meditate and stop your thoughts. You must overcome all egotism and selfishness by serving others. You must cleanse your mind so that enlightenment will find a happy place to reside there.

Humility is the conscious awareness and acceptance of eternity as your body.

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
To meditate with full effort, produces infinity, freedom.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Advanced meditation is facing the immensity of eternity, embracing that which terrifies you and frightens you and loving it because it's God. You are God.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The one thing you can give God that will truly impress God is freindship. God is an eternal companion who is with you all the time - never judges, just is.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Use your mind to discriminate. Choose to advance yourself, to bring more purity into your being.
Frederick Lenz
Image
I must play my role, great or small - that is humility, without self-importance, without self-indulgence.
Frederick Lenz
Image
I like extreme athletics, extreme meditation and extremely beautiful women. Perhaps I'm an extreme person, or it's simply my Karma. But I must tell you, as if you hadn't read about me in a newspaper or seen me on a magazine format television show, there are extreme risks involved with all three.

Turn your life into a field of power and energy to draw from.

Sexuality, I think, is a little bit different, for me, than it is for most people, in that there's almost no body awareness whatsoever. It's just light, but that's how everything is for me.
