Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
Salvakalpa samadhi is a tremendous acceptance and liberation, but it is not complete absorption in nirvana, in that consciousness.
Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
Perhaps you're not the next Buddha. Perhaps you're not the Maitreya. Perhaps that's not your job in this incarnation. Perhaps you have to enjoy life and learn about life through whatever way that you find yourself going.
Frederick Lenz
At the time of death, whatever you have focused on the most will determine your next life.
Frederick Lenz
The kundalini energy is often compared to a snake that is coiled up. Because it is coiled up it can spring very quickly. It can jump and extend itself very far.
Frederick Lenz
Mystical power, as you know, has a whole different flavor to it. It's much more raucous at times it's much more poignant at times. It involves more of the emotional body.
Frederick Lenz
Humanity actually has the gall to feel they are more advanced than they were technology somehow defines intelligence. If technology enables you to kill more people, that doesn't define intelligence. An intelligent species survives.
