Quote

We seek to unify ourselves with the endless light of truth, of God, of nirvana. We recognize the infinite playing through all beings and all forms, but we only have to concern ourselves with ourselves.

You're an emanation of enlightenment. Enlightenment, which is the universe, has created the hallucination that is you in a form that shifts.
Frederick Lenz
Image
To be enlightened means that you really don't change, and yet you're nothing but change.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If you know that you have had countless lives, then what happens in this life is not quite as traumatic.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Everything is subtle. Everything has a million sides. Everything is a manifestation of god. Everything is light. All beings are infinite. All things are perfect, in their own way.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The shushumna is the tube that the kundalini passes up in the subtle body, and on one side is the ida and the other side is the pingala.
Frederick Lenz
Image
People can insert thoughts into your mind. This is more dangerous for psychic people. Use concentration exercises and read to combat this boredom is an easy way to be drained.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Our spirit grows and develops traits in each incarnation that it passes through, and then collects and carries the essence of those traits into future lifetimes. In Buddhist Yoga we refer to our multi-life karmic traits as samskaras.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Love is something that we don't control. We have to be ourselves. You can be sexual, nonsexual, asexual, bisexual, or trisexual and it really doesn't have a lot to do with enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You don't know why, but you know you have to go home. It's an eternal longing. It's Marvell's drop of dew wanting to go back to the sky. We're drawn by a force we don't understand, through worlds, through experience.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Your self is the universe, and you perceive the universe through a state of mind.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If we give purely, it opens up a doorway in our heart and it gives us the vision to see that those we give to are God.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Any of the exercises that you start out with will get the kundalini moving. You don't have to stay with them for the entire period of meditation.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The teacher has nothing to do with people who use their mental powers to block the enlightenment of others. These people lack control. What can you teach someone who lacks control?
Frederick Lenz
Image
A teacher can show you the ways. But no one can do it for you. You have to take what you learn from them and go out and live it. You have to change your life.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Without enlightenment, everything in life is harsh. Sooner or later you see everyone you love die, unless you die first, of course. This causes you to suffer.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If you keep focusing, gradually thoughts will become quieter and quieter, gradually the images will disappear from the mind. What is happening is the kundalini energy begins to radiate and rise, it causes the mind to be quiet.

We're at the end of the cycle. You've all known it since childhood. In the Hindu division of the ages, this is the Kali Yuga, the dark age. At the end of a cycle, Vishnu takes incarnation as a person. Vishnu is that aspect of God that preserves and protects life. When Vishnu leaves, Shiva comes.

Image
Right and wrong are concepts that only have meaning in this world, so by sorting existence on those characteristics, we are defining ourselves to exist only in this world.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Just as there are primary colors from which all of the others come forth when they're combined, so there are primary vibratory qualities of energy and light within us.
Frederick Lenz
Image
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.
