The network of enlightenment is a very wide network. It's not relegated to a simple type of being. It's not the network of the goody-goods.

You must be kind to others. You must foster a caretaker personality of gentleness and perseverance, even in the midst of adversity.

Image
The pageant of life is divided into ying and yang. They're two circles. You can follow either circle and manage to develop enough speed to move beyond this world to other worlds, dimensional realities.
Frederick Lenz

Tantra won't work unless you've been trapped by spirituality. You have to be trapped by spirituality before you can be liberated from it.

Image
What is enlightenment, anyway? I don't know if I can really put it into words, perhaps you can. I can't.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Alow immortality to work through you. Be but a mere instrument. And that instrument should be so absorbed in the perfect perfection of existence, that it knows not even that it is absorbed.
Frederick Lenz
Image
We walk upon the grace of god. Nothing else exists except that.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Many spiritual teachers have done this. They have disbanded their whole community because everyone got angry. The karma, at a certain point, has to go back to the person it's intensified and hurts them spiritually.
Frederick Lenz
Image
There is a still center of the universe. Within that still center are all things, all achievements, all loses, everything and nothing exist there.
Frederick Lenz
Image
After enlightenment your body changes tremendously its very molecular structure changes just because the kundalini is always streaming through you.

Image
You're always looking for the ultimate. It's kind of like journeying to Ixtlan. You're never going to get there, but that is no reason not to try.

Image
Power comes from the navel center. If you meditate for an hour or so a day and you focus on that sphere, you will release a tremendous power that will enter your body. We call it the chi.

Where is truth? Is there truth in what I am doing now?
