Combine meditation with career as a yoga. You will find that your practice will not be any less powerful than a person who lives in a monastery. You might even excel because practice in a monastery can get very one-sided.

What we're seeking to do is become transparent. A transparent window on reality. But that takes time to do. We're starting with a very solid, objectified view of ourselves and existence

The only bad meditation is when you don't meditate.

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
There's a power that brings us to things, and there's a power that lets us move away from things, from people, places, experiences. And what you learn to do in metaphysics is accept.

When you practice selfless giving, you're in balance and harmony with everything.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Take a deep breath and exhale slowly. Mentally picture all tiredness, tension, and fatigue leaving you. Visualize that a wave of golden light is entering you at the top of your head and passing throughout your entire body.
Frederick Lenz
Image
I must play my role, great or small - that is humility, without self-importance, without self-indulgence.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The dreams of the self are manifold and endless and they exist in all the myriad worlds and conditions that appear to have solidity. When you're dreaming at night, something seems very real, but when you wake up the dream is gone and so is all that apparent solidity.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Most successful people find out that the attainment of their goals doesn't necessarily bring them the happiness and joy they assumed their happiness is short-lived.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Power is emotionless yet one with personal power will experience more emotions.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You identify with your self. You have a personal history. You have commitments. There are things that you want to experience and other things that you want to avoid.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Women have very powerful second chakras, and the goal is to move that energy up and use it.
Frederick Lenz
Image
My god, life is beautiful! Look at the colors! if you are blind, look at the colors of your mind.

Selfless giving does not imply superiority. Selfless giving is about love.
