It is very important to always hold the thought of an enlightened teacher in your mind in a very positive way. When you direct negative energy towards someone who is powerful, it has a terrible bounce-back effect.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
You don't have to do anything to meditate. That's what makes it so difficult. Everybody wants to do something.
Frederick Lenz
Karma is not a receipt of a physical experience, because of what someone has done.
Frederick Lenz
Transform yourself. It is not the opponent that will change, or the Frisbee. They will change in relation to your change. You must change.
Frederick Lenz
Physical circumstance will not cause happiness. Or if it does, there is the fear of loss. Now you are a slave to it. You have become bound to it.
Frederick Lenz
Learn how to focus - that creates a lot of power. Focus on a candle flame for 15 minutes or a pretty colored rock, or one point, or a chakra.
Frederick Lenz
We want to be all things, not just to gain power over things - how infantile!
Frederick Lenz
It has been my experience as a teacher over the years and incarnations that what really counts are not techniques. What really counts is spirit, love. What really counts is a sense of propriety and dedication.
Frederick Lenz
People don't really want to be happy. They go out of their way to be miserable.
Frederick Lenz
Personal power is the ability to go into other planes, to cross that threshold from one dimension to another. Why do that? Because it is there to do knowledge, power, and beauty lie in those other worlds.
Frederick Lenz
The United States is filled with power places. The majority of them, however, are to be found either along the West Coast and in the southwestern United States or along the Eastern Seaboard.
Frederick Lenz
If you are in a state of mind in which all things are one, then you can spend your time in lingerie shops.
Frederick Lenz
Flaky devotionalism, bowing and scraping and sucking up to the teacher is very phony. It is counterproductive to enlightenment and spiritual development. What is necessary is mutual respect.
Frederick Lenz
Power has destroyed many people - not really. Power doesn't destroy anyone. People apply it poorly and it can ruin their lives. Power is like fire. Fire is neither good nor bad. It's how you use it.
Frederick Lenz
The mind is infinite. It is not relegated to the brain or to thought or to emotion. It is made up of an endless series of realities that stretch on into infinity.
Frederick Lenz
Please act in and through me. Please let my love increase, if it is your will. I feel that's the right thing but even if it's not the right thing, I'm willing to abide by your judgment.
Frederick Lenz
Don't worry about your future lives, past lives. Button up your shirt! Stand up straight! Go out and do something. Go out and have some fun. Be alive, change, dissolve, explode!
Frederick Lenz
We see an enlightened teacher to gain a sense of humor, to learn balance and proportion and of course to learn wisdom.
Frederick Lenz
A better name for nirvana might be endless love. Love not even in the sense that we see it if we're watching the romantic movie, but love in a sense of no absence.
Frederick Lenz
You need to turn your room into a place of power. It's a good idea to have flowers around, candles, incense, you know, happy things. Make your room into a beautiful place and keep it impeccably clean.
Frederick Lenz
It is more important to repeat a mantra several times with total absorption than to parrot it for hours on end.
