Reciprocity, a symbiotic relationship, is a relationship in which two people have worked out certain terms. I am using you in certain ways you are using me in certain ways. That is a balanced relationship.
Frederick Lenz
There is a lot of opposition. You will experience it. But the joys that come from the study, more than compensate for the opposition, in my opinion. It's a personal choice.
Frederick Lenz
Inside you is eternity. A human being is not so simple. We're told that we're Ted or Sally or Willie or whatever and that we grow up and have experiences. That has nothing to do with what life is. You are eternity.
Frederick Lenz
This is simple meditation, nothingness and everythingness, the color and the form, death and the void, the end and the beginning, a beginningless end with an endless beginning, Pretty clever if you ask me.
Frederick Lenz
Seeing occurs, of course, through stopping thought. Thought is the fog. When thought stops in meditation, at any point, when there's no thought, we see the other shore.
Frederick Lenz
Some come to a teacher for power. They still have all the desires, angers and jealousies of an unevolved person. Consequently, they become destructive both to themselves and to others.
Frederick Lenz
Consciously join with and become part of the power that is in everything around you.
Frederick Lenz
While we're in the dream, these are useful notions.
Frederick Lenz
Through the study of Zen you can learn to move from lower to higher states of mind at will. Higher states of mind offer you a much more accurate picture of reality.
Frederick Lenz
There's a source, there's a perennial source from which all things come forth. We call it the Godhead, Nirvana, the Tao, enlightenment. It's big it's bright it's perfect, as are all of its children, as are we.
