Spiritual balance is the ability to remain happy, to not be hostile to your neighbor when they are being hostile, and not to get caught up in the trivia.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
What we focus on we become. If you are just focusing on unhappy things, you will become unhappy. If you focus on happy states of mind, then it will grow in you.
Frederick Lenz
To talk about realizing the Self is discontinuous because there is nothing to realize but the Self. There is nothing but realization.
Frederick Lenz
When you deal with people, it tends to drag your energy down - if those people are in a lower auric state than you. If you meditate and they don't, then by the end of the day you tend to be more drained.
Frederick Lenz
It is my experience that people who don't participate in society, who don't have jobs, who don't have friends, are just very stuck in irresponsibility and cultism and all kinds of nonsense.
Frederick Lenz
Women must work doubly hard to overcome their conditioning in order to become enlightened. They must erase both conscious and unconscious ideas of sexual inferority that have been programmed into their awareness.
Frederick Lenz
Meditation is the way the mind is. That's why in Zen they call it the natural state, which means you don't have to go and do anything to meditate.
Frederick Lenz
People think that if you are enlightened you are not in touch with the pulse of the physical. Au contraire! The higher you go, the deeper you become, and the more conscious you are of the physical and the sensorial.
Frederick Lenz
Power is everywhere when you can see it and find it. It is nowhere when you can't.
Frederick Lenz
If I enter into your dream and say, wake up! If you awaken, then the dream will vanish. We'll be right where we always were and always will be, everywhere and nowhere - eternally perfect, infinite awareness.
Frederick Lenz
This lifetime right now you have a specific destiny. You are destined to die at a certain time, to make a certain amount of money, to have certain associations and friendships.
Frederick Lenz
Reincarnation is the dissolution of the self. It's like going swimming in the ocean, no one ever comes out, because one has become the ocean.
Frederick Lenz
Search this world and find that being who you feel has the greatest light and become their apprentice.
Frederick Lenz
You don't always have to be the winner, have everybody notice you. It's fun to dance alone sometimes.
Frederick Lenz
There are seven primary centers, junctions, within the subtle physical body. These are called the seven chakras.
Frederick Lenz
Real humility is something that no one else will see. No one will know about your humility, if it's real.
Frederick Lenz
Tantric Buddhism is just a collection of things that work by doing them. And sometimes we add new things. We have electronic music we did not have it in Tibet.
Frederick Lenz
Even enlightened people think of themselves as beginners. They probably think of themselves as beginners more than others do - perpetual beginners who begin again each moment because their subject is endless.
Frederick Lenz
Ideally, you would live in an area that is not necessarily in the middle of the country, out in the woods, because you can isolate yourself there and get stuck in your own thoughts.
Frederick Lenz
All the manifest forms of existence are but illusions. They are momentary displays of consciousness, flashes of lightening in the sky. They are there for a moment and then they are gone.
Frederick Lenz
We have the possibility of being far removed from what we are, of beginning to taste it and feel it. That is direct knowledge. That is truth. Anything else is mere words.
