Life is the power to perceive. Without perception there is no life, and what is most endemic to perception is power.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You don't want to become so sensitive that you can't interact with people in the world. If you get to that point, you are not practicing psychic development. You are running away from the world, and you've made yourself weak.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Men are suppressing woman politically, philosophically, socially, through denying them education, equal rights, equal employment, and just by setting up a description of the world in which a woman views herself as a vessel, as someone who's only there to have children, as someone who can't succeed, even spiritually.

Most people suffer in love because of attachment. Attachment means we're interested in a net return on our investment.

When you meditate deeply, you will see beyond life and death. You will see that you can't die and you can't be reborn. You are existence itself.

Tantra is for the person who has gone beyond the rules. They've learned the rules so well that now they can go beyond them.

If you stay in the attention you are in, then you can predict everything that will happen to you for the rest of your life.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The meaning of life changes as you change dimensional planes. The way human beings perceive the world is only one simple method of seeing. There are many ways to see life. Life has many meanings, and self realization is the understanding of all this.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If you ever want to study acting you should be around an enlightened person for a while, because all they do is play roles, since they no longer have a self.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If a spiritual being is naive to the lower aspects of the world, they usually are killed or die young. Did Jesus really know which of the twelve would betray him? I doubt it.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Just being around the awareness field of the male or female imprinter, the child is imprinted.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If you suspect someone is draining you, generally you should not confront them, but be nice, relax them, and then see what they are doing.
Frederick Lenz
Image
A well known Los Angeles newspaper referred to a small group of gentlemen who live up on a mountain and practice Zen as 'the Zen cult'. The cult phenomenon is definitely journalistically 'in'.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Think of your life as a field. The field is the field of action. What a mystic does is set up their life as a field of power.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Enlightenment is really worth seeking. It is the only thing that gives you permanent happiness. When you experience the ecstasy of enlightenment, everything is alright.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Most people don't care much about enlightenment and the truth. They'd rather watch the Home Shopping Network, and maybe that's another kind of truth.

Image
Love comes from ourselves, not from someone else.
Frederick Lenz

It is one thing to teach a dynamic Oriental philosophy and religious code it is quite another to put such a discipline to the test by successfully living it in the face of ridicule.
