Quote

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.

There are certain protective forces in the universe that do watch over us, but the innocent die too.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The spirit longs for the world of light from which it came. That longing causes something to happen. It causes the being to grow into light.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You cannot be born and you cannot die because you don't even exist ... in the sense that you think of existence.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Tantra works well for people who are engaged in relationships and sexuality. Sex itself is just an action. It's just part of the dream.
Frederick Lenz
Image
To not realize that everyone we think about affects us psychically, to not realize that life is a field of power, is criminal, in my opinion. If you are a sensitive and evolved being, it is simply criminal.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Thousands and thousands of incarnations and nothing to show for it. You must choose whether to follow the path of love or the path of attachment.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The way to win the race is not to trip somebody else. Simply have more energy. You will not only have a greater chance of winning but whether you win or lose, you'll be happy.

Image
Once we've achieved perfect meditation, we're terribly trapped because that's an illusion...any enlightenment that seems ultimate is an illusion.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The kundalini of the supraconscious has nothing to do with the shushumna. That light comes down, from the crown center and has nothing to do with the opening. It descends and inundates.
Frederick Lenz
Image
I am humility, nothing more and nothing less. I am one blade of grass in a sea of grass. I am one wave in an endless ocean of waves. I am one glowing star in a galaxy of stars.
Frederick Lenz
Image
There's no point in getting frustrated at yourself. Just be truthful.
Frederick Lenz
Image
When self-consciousness stops, there is nothing -nothing left to stop, start, begin or end.
Frederick Lenz
Image
All things are void. So how possibly could there be any obscurations since everything is void, when you're void itself? There's only the void. In the void, there's only shining, perfect clear light of reality.
Frederick Lenz
Image
There is no place to go and no one to be.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Tantra is not for a hedonist at all. It won't work. If you're heavily attracted to sensual experiences, tantra will definitely not be of any use to you.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The strategy of winning is gaining personal power. There are no techniques to learn that will cause you to win. You need power, balance and wisdom to win and to learn from your loses.
Frederick Lenz
Image
When you meditate make sure you stay awake. If you are falling asleep get up and splash some water on yourself or sleep until you are refreshed.

Image
Chanting a mantra at the beginning of your meditation helps you clear the mind and takes you deep within the self. Chanting a mantra at the end of meditation helps you seal the meditation. It helps you bring the awareness of the meditation down into your daily life.

Image
My feeling is that drugs and alcohol take away from the pure experience of meditation. That does not mean that occasionally, a person couldn't have a glass of wine or a drink.

Whatever you want you can get, when you understand the secret of will. But wisdom is needed so that you do not use your will abusively because you'll get hurt.
