Do not be selfish and feel new people will take more of the teacher's attention and you won't get it. That's nonsense. With that attitude, you won't get it. The teacher sees that attitude and will have very little to do with you.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Allow the inherent emptiness within what you are about to do direct you.
Frederick Lenz
The whole quality of your life depends on your state of mind. There are very high states of mind that very few people experience. They are also quite pragmatic and practical and they make you more efficient at living and working in the world.
Frederick Lenz
Programming will aid a person in developing their mind and will aid their meditation. I find that people who have pursued programming are doing much better in their meditation.
Frederick Lenz
When your mind is clear and your third eye is open, you can see and know things that are taking place thousands of miles away from you.
Frederick Lenz
The ecstasy and completion of absorption in God is so fantastic that you can't possibly have lost anything because all the things you've always loved and always experienced came forth from there and exist there and are always there.
Frederick Lenz
We feel crowded by other people we feel crowded by social rules we feel crowded by ourselves, mainly.
Frederick Lenz
A lot of energy is lost to false teachers. Wherever dependency is created, energy is lost.
Frederick Lenz
It's necessary to respect all other ways and other teachings on the subject because even though they may not make a lot of sense to us, they might to someone else. Who are we to say?
Frederick Lenz
Purity is something that can be consciously developed. Expect to have impure moments, thoughts, and ideas. One day they will go away, and then there will be happiness.
Frederick Lenz
With a teacher it is necessary to be sensitive to their directions most of the time they won't say much. You have to be still and silent to understand.
Frederick Lenz
All things are spiritual. It doesn't matter what you do or who you are or what kind of blue jeans you wear, or whether you wear an ochre robe or whether you're sober or asleep or dreaming. It's all the same.
Frederick Lenz
To know that these are people who for a moment, in glory, in light, were true warriors, and you had the chance to associate with them, to live with them, to share with them, words and moments of power - this is the nature of spiritual study.
Frederick Lenz
The scriptures recommend love and service to the enlightened to develop purity.
Frederick Lenz
It is important to monitor your mind constantly. This is particularly important if you are studying with an enlightened teacher, because you are absorbing tremendous power from the teacher.
Frederick Lenz
I am an expert in the world of the supremely happy because I am happy. I've never met anybody as happy as I am - that, in itself, should make you unhappy.
Frederick Lenz
Only real love of the infinite will motivate you. While pain motivates, once we feel comfortable and the pain has stopped, we'll stop evolving. Love is a far superior spiritual vehicle.
Frederick Lenz
There is no beginning and there is no end. Nothing is final. There is no absolute. There is no highest point, nor is there a lowest point. These configurations are ideas. Ideas are primitive constructs, symbolic representations, reflections in a mirror.
Frederick Lenz
If your're not having a very good time with your life, its because you haven't done much for others. You may have done many things but you havent done much for those around you.
Frederick Lenz
Light by its very nature is endless. Therefore you can never say you've had the ultimate experience in light - it goes on forever.
Frederick Lenz
The tonal is so strong, that it even arranges a syntactical place for God and thus kills the mystery, the reality, and paralyzes the being.
