More quotes by Frederick Lenz
The danger to power is obsession - power junkies. You need a very strong mind and humor to balance yourself. If you don't, you will get shredded.
Frederick Lenz
We're not really indigenous to this world, this world being a temporal plane of reality.
Frederick Lenz
For most persons, the mystical kundalini energy is easier to initially perceive, unless you're extremely sensitive. It's more of a rush, a flash. There's an electric quality to it, a burning heat.
Frederick Lenz
Willpower determines success in business, interpersonal relationships, health, whatever it is. All the activities in your life, success and failure in them, are dependent upon your ability to manifest will.
Frederick Lenz
A perfect life is to observe - to realize that you have no control over the events in your life, that there are no events in your life, that there is no life.

Frederick Lenz
Begin to live in other levels of attention all the time whether you're at work, driving or running on the beach. When you begin to be in a more meditative state all the time you will find that it fits rather well with everything that you do.
Frederick Lenz
Your mind is your life. It's your essence and your substance. It's the part of you that has always been and will always be. Its formations change constantly, which is what makes you always new.
Frederick Lenz
It is acceptance of the will of God - waiting, if necessary, forever, happily rising above your desires and above your frustrations to always do what is right. Always do what is right. This is the spiritual study.
Frederick Lenz
Most people don't care much about enlightenment and the truth. They'd rather watch the Home Shopping Network, and maybe that's another kind of truth.
Frederick Lenz
This study is not for the amateur. It's not for the dilettante. It's not for the cult follower. It's not for someone who wants everything done for them. It's not for the one who just wants to stare with that fixed dog-like devotion towards the teacher.
Frederick Lenz
Celibacy doesn't make you enlightened, otherwise every nun or priest in Buddhism or Christianity would be enlightened. People who don't date and can't get any action would be enlightened.
Frederick Lenz
We are many, many selves. We're not just a finite being. The selves don't necessarily speak in words. But they are you.
Frederick Lenz
It is because people exist in varyinig degrees of the dream.
Frederick Lenz
When you meditate, you will care more for those around you and you will be able to do more for them, as your own awareness advances. Everyone who comes into your field of energy is positively influenced.
Frederick Lenz
Never settle for that which is easy and comfortable or the necessity of seeking that which is difficult and uncomfortable.
