A realistic recognition of the human condition is that it is corrupt beyond belief. What do you suppose would happen if the police all took a week off?
Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
The thousand petal lotus of light, the crown center, really does not become operative until one is on the verge of enlightenment itself. Then you really don't have to meditate on it. The thousand petals gradually light up.
Frederick Lenz
The most successful way to combat these dark clouds that come between the light of you and that which you love, is to feel that love itself will rescue you.
Frederick Lenz
We have developed psychic powers in other lives. Now we have many problems because of it, many voices in the mind due to this crowded earth.
Frederick Lenz
The gopis seek Krishna, another part of themselves that create ecstasy. The man seeks the woman, the woman seeks the man. The Tantric Buddhist seeks annihilation of the ego.
Frederick Lenz
If you focus on another person you take their energy in your body completely.
Frederick Lenz
Balance is to choose happiness, to feel that the purpose of life is to love, not necessarily to be loved, to be happy, to be conscious, to be aware, to be fulfilled.
Frederick Lenz
Purity is innocence, the innocence of lack of self. Desire is innocent unless it's connected with self.
Frederick Lenz
