When the time comes for a change, you will find it occurring without having created it yourself. You may think that you are the doer and that you are creating the change. That's nonsense.

Image
Only the fool wants to go into battle to beat someone for the satisfaction of beating someone.

Image
Linus Pauling would have us believe and perhaps correctly, that enough vitamin C will have us live another 20 or 30 years, I think the strongest power in the world is not vitamin C but the power of our own thoughts.
Frederick Lenz
Image
As spirits we have always existed in a generalized form, since we are all part of the universe. As individual spirits, we have existed for a timeless time.

Image
It's not what you do - it's the intensity of your feeling that determines how far you go in the spiritual life.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Zen was a reaction. Just as Buddha came into the world and spoke against the fall of Vedanta, so Buddhism lost its essence and became ritual. Zen was a reaction to that.

My teacher knew that I always had a girlfriend. For some reason, he never said anything to me about it.

You can focus on Jesus or Buddha or Krishna, Ramakrishna, Lao Tsu, Yukteswar, Yogananda, Vivekananda, any of the great spiritual teachers who have lived, or on a living teacher, and draw light from them.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Light by its very nature is endless. Therefore you can never say you've had the ultimate experience in light - it goes on forever.

Image
In our culture we are taught to be accessible and open it signifies a good person. In mysticism it is the opposite, people can scan you and drain you.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The universe is perfection. But there are different views that universe provides for itself to view itself. Beyond all views there is nirvana.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The mantra is a very preliminary exercise for the student to begin to grasp a sense of focus. When they are used by persons who have reached very high levels of attention, they can open up doorways to other worlds.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If you have power, you might be able to heal a person. You could actually get inside their cell structures and create a change.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Selfless giving means forgeting about yourself. It means letting go and doing something crazy.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You may not need a teacher or you may be drawn to one - everything is individual. But the main thing you need to do is meditate and learn to stop your thoughts and enter into the ocean of infinite awareness. You will be directed from there.

Yoga makes you free. It makes you happy. It gets you out of the traps that create human misery. It makes you vibrate faster.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If you go too far, it'll blow your mind. I mean it's strong out there. If you go out too far beyond the bounds of attention, there are things in the universe, in the universes of mind, in the inner worlds, it's best sometimes not to deal with unless you're very, very far along.

The 1990's will be a determining period of time for another cycle. If humanity during this time chooses to throw away a lot of the mirages and illusions it's fooled itself with, we will enter a very bright and golden age. It won't happen in one day.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If you are not happier every day, if you don't see a progression of development, then you are certainly not practicing yoga or Buddhism and therefore you cannot be amassing any positive karma.
Frederick Lenz
Image
When you realize that the ego is making you miserable you don't identify with it. You identify with your soul's humility and the ego dissolves.
