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.

Without purity it's impossible to realize God.

They might see that you are going to meet a beautiful woman or a beautiful man. They will come to you in dreams and tell you this is going to happen because of them.
Frederick Lenz
Image
We need a new imprinting. We need the imprinting of enlightenment, of freedom. That comes through our association with a higher being. So classically what occurs is that one meets a teacher.
Frederick Lenz
Image
We seek to unify ourselves with the endless light of truth, of God, of nirvana. We recognize the infinite playing through all beings and all forms, but we only have to concern ourselves with ourselves.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If this is the only life, then everything assumes too great an importance. We have to get everything out of life and we overdo it.
Frederick Lenz
Image
It's not going to be easy. It's the earth. What creates power in your life is when you perfect your mind, your career, and your associations with others.
Frederick Lenz
Image
By perfecting the practices of zazen and mindfulness, by learning patience and love and by realizing the essential emptiness of all phenomena, you will discover nirvana.

Men are suppressing woman politically, philosophically, socially, through denying them education, equal rights, equal employment, and just by setting up a description of the world in which a woman views herself as a vessel, as someone who's only there to have children, as someone who can't succeed, even spiritually.

Power is everywhere when you can see it and find it. It is nowhere when you can't.
