Enlightened teachers get all sorts of assignments. Sometimes we end up in the higher astral sometimes we end up in the realm of pure spirit sometimes we end up in the desire realms. Sometimes we go down to the lower astral to teach, you don't really teach there, you just sort of are, because everybody is confused.
Frederick Lenz
How can you possibly overcome your fears, doubts, worries and other problems? You can't. You simply don't have the capacity. Fortunately, the infinite can do all of these things for you. How? Because it is lacking in nothing.
Frederick Lenz
Everyone meditates in their own way. Some people sit and practice formal mediation techniques for many hours a day while others spontaneously meditate while watching a sunset, listening to music, or participating in athletics.

Frederick Lenz
Most successful people find out that the attainment of their goals doesn't necessarily bring them the happiness and joy they assumed their happiness is short-lived.
Frederick Lenz
What the teacher does is sweep all of the logic, order and reason onto one side and make that side very strong.
Frederick Lenz
As you pass through bhakti yoga, as you pass through love, you're elated. You're fulfilled and you're joyous.
Frederick Lenz
I don't put much stock in powers that people have to hurt others, in sorcery and all this nonsense. There are murders and there are dictators. That is just a part of life. The intelligent use of power in yoga can assist you avoiding that side of humanity.
Frederick Lenz
If you focus on another person you take their energy in your body completely.
Frederick Lenz
Don't try to be someone. Be yourself. This is what mediation should teach you.
Frederick Lenz
It wasn't until after living in California for many years that I realized that you don't believe what anybody says, ever. Whatever they say, they're just making a movie - they just like the way they sound.
Frederick Lenz
There is something beyond power. The totality of one's being. Some call it nirvana. We have a higher destiny. Before you can scratch the surface, you have to bring your life into order.
Frederick Lenz
The island of the tonal, the way we see life, is there so we can get through our life. It was never intended to become a dictator that would usurp all other views of the world and banish them.
Frederick Lenz
I was very fortunate, and have always been, that the women I met and fell in love with were exceptional, from my first girlfriend to the woman I married when I was 21, to all the remarkable women I have known as either friends or lovers.
