What matters is that they are curious about life, energy, truth, and themselves and that they haven't sold out to the establishment powers that tell us what to think, what to wear, how to behave, what to believe in and what goes beyond the line of rational and irrational thought.

Image
Life has no meaning. It doesn't need a meaning. A meaning is an arbitrary thought formulation that we affix to it because we are in the mood. Life is its own raison d'etre.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Human beings fear light and knowledge and power. There is a weird quirky sort of thing that happens with people. When you log on to the truth and you start to become it, it threatens them because they live with countless falsehoods.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Enlightenment is a lot like dying. You might wonder why there aren't more enlightened people. It is because they are afraid to die.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Be radical! The reason you feel so miserable is because you put spirituality in a form. You boxed it, franchised it. You decided spirituality was a certain way but then you got stuck in the way.

It really doesn't matter to me whether a person has a lot of money or a little bit of money.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Everyone is afraid of enlightenment, knowledge, completion. People are afraid of being exposed.
