Frederick Lenz
Behind the transient reality, there is something else. It is a deeper, more permanent and unchanging reality that we Buddhists call nirvana.
Frederick Lenz
Emotions are there to enjoy life but they are not used in self-reflection because they inhibit a proper reflection. They gunk us up.
Frederick Lenz
