Frederick Lenz

Put a smile on your face. Don't sit in the waiting room of life. Go do something, happily.
Frederick Lenz
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.
Frederick Lenz
As a sensitive person around other people, you feel their desires, you feel their angers, and you feel their frustrations. You begin to believe that these desires, angers, and frustrations are yours.
Frederick Lenz
Your whole life is inside your mind. Your mind is the prism that refracts the entire universe. Everything around you and within you comes from your mind.
Frederick Lenz
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
People on the pathway to enlightenment become very successful in whatever they approach, because they have learned to discipline the mind.
Frederick Lenz
People think they can tame the earth. How absurd! The vanity of human wishes is endless. It is more fun to dance with life.
