A soul mate is not necessarily someone with whom you set up housekeeping. Your soul and their soul have a multi-incarnation attraction.
Frederick Lenz
Image
There's no place to go. There's nothing to attain. There's nothing to be reached. Love itself is all that you want.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Purity is developed through caring. You need to care about light and the matters of light, truth, religion and spirituality.

If I used justice, you'd all be dead. The karma that you throw at me when you don't like me - if I just let it come back, you'd all be destroyed in no time.

Frederick Lenz
Image
Karma will lead you to a larger more expansive happier view or a dinger darker view. That view will enable you to make choices and have experiences.
Frederick Lenz
Image
All of the previously described techniques can be practiced with your eyes open and closed. Most people find that it is easier initially to practice meditation with their eyes closed.

Image
Every person I've known has had an effect on me, as have people whom I've not met in the physical in this life, but whom I've met inwardly, teachers from other eras - Sri Ramana Maharshi, Sri Ramakrishna and Lao Tse.

Image
Free will exists within each of us. Most people choose not to use their free will, so consequently they rarely alter their karmic patterns.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The Buddhist message is a message not of the negation of life, but one of affirmation.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Tantra works well for people who are engaged in relationships and sexuality. Sex itself is just an action. It's just part of the dream.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Sex can never bring about enlightenment. Only enlightenment brings about enlightenment.

Image
We hide from ourselves by being with others.
Frederick Lenz
Image
We try to fulfill ourselves, even though our inner voice tells us to become all that we are - still, we run from it.

In the western philosophy you can't perceive infinities at every moment. It's not there to do.
