Nirvana and enlightenment exist just on the other side of your sensory perceptions and your thoughts.
Frederick Lenz
Image
When we are very young children we know how to feel. It's innate. But as we lead a lifetime, we pick up so many thoughts, impressions, feelings, and ideas, that our sensitivity goes away.

The kundalini runs through you. It runs through the ida and the pingala, the two nerve channels in the subtle body but there's a central channel, the shushumna, which is blocked. When it runs through that, then you can use the mystical kundalini.

Yoga is a science. It is the science of consciousness. Yoga suggests that there is more, other realms, other dimensions, and nirvana - the central nexus where all this comes from.

Fair Game Theory: If you are dumb enough to be drained by people then you are fair game.

Image
Time is a convenient filing system human beings have devised to segregate their experiences.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Focus on the center of the chest, relax. Imagine a rose there. Feel it unfolding. Let yourself go and ignore your thoughts.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Nothing is as it seems - This is an illusion.
Frederick Lenz
Image
All living things have an aura, a rapidly vibrating, invisible psychic energy field that protects them from toxic, non-physical energies that would otherwise be detrimental to them.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Love can be used to drain people. Through eye contact people send a cord out to drain you long distance. Through sexual manipulation, anyone who can make you like them can drain you.
Frederick Lenz
Image
In this prison camp, the Gestapo state brain-police planet Earth, what is normal is insane and what is insane is normal. But it doesn't pay to tell that to the local politicians or other organizational structures that run the place that. They didn't crucify Christ because they liked what he said.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Human beings have become so afraid of the unknown, themselves, and each other that they deprive themselves of that innate ecstasy and love of life which comes with a human body, mind and spirit, by hiding behind the empty shell of their ego.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Power is the ability to translate, that is, to shift from one level of attention to another.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You don't have to meditate. You don't have to practice self-discovery and Buddhism. You should only practice self-discovery if you really have had it with the human world.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Sometimes when you are with an enlightened teacher, you will feel both pleasant and unpleasant things magnified. That happens when you meditate with someone who goes into very strong states of altered consciousness.
