More quotes by Frederick Lenz
I consider those persons to be my students who come and meditate with me on a regular basis, who, in spite of the hardships and difficulties on the path of knowledge, still continue to try, and who respect me as I respect them.
Frederick Lenz
I find it ironic to read stories about myself which have never occurred and are simply so absurd that they are comical. At other times, it is very painful to be so misinterpreted and vilified.
Frederick Lenz
The throat chakra is the center that is aesthetic. It gives an appreciation of beauty.
Frederick Lenz
Nirvana is the center of things then there are the outer bandings of attention. The universe is a mind. At the center of its mind is nirvana.
Frederick Lenz
There are phony teachers who profess all kinds of things, and I think you will figure out real fast who they are. They just don't feel right.
Frederick Lenz
The shortest distance between two points is your mind. It's not a straight line.
Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
Someone else would come, another self that was a little more refined, that had a little more purity, a little more humility, because I was quite egotistical, I thought I was quite wonderful.
Frederick Lenz
When you are enlightened, your physical body will still feel pain if you get hurt, but you will not be overwhelmed even by extreme physical pain, because your mind is filled with light, love and understanding.
Frederick Lenz
You stand on the edge of eternity, with a vista that is so incredible, so powerful, so perfect that it's overwhelming. You are so overwhelmed - you no longer exist.
Frederick Lenz
By disciplining and training the mind to focus on one thing, we gain control of perception we learn to grab it and put it someplace we want it to be.
Frederick Lenz
Life is wonder, endless, ceaseless wonder. If your energy level is low, then everything is gray, two-dimensional, boring, frustrating, and unhappy.
Frederick Lenz
I am very interested in the enlightenment of women. Very few teachers of advanced self discovery work with women, and if they do it's usually in a very second handed way. They treat women as second class citizens.
Frederick Lenz
There are other options that no one ever told you about. These are things mom and dad never explained to you your teachers didn't know they weren't enlightened. They weren't luminous beings that stood out of time and space.
Frederick Lenz
You can't just sit in emptiness. Even the enlightened don't sit in emptiness. We call it emptiness - but we move our mind into a world of light.
Frederick Lenz
Karma is not a cop-out. The esoteric meaning of karma is that you are who you are, because of what you have done and who you have been.
Frederick Lenz
Continually reorder the mind and the mental structures, the ability to think in prescribed ways, to analyze in prescribed ways, and to stop thought for periods of time.
