The universe is made up of an endless ocean of life itself. It is an endless ocean of itself. And for a time it binds itself together in particularized forms. Those forms have perception and they perceive themselves as being separate.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Suffering follows the lack of wisdom.
Frederick Lenz
Selfless giving is a choice. The primary choice we make is not what to give, how to give, where to give. What we are trying to do is become perfect givers.
Frederick Lenz
Love can be used to drain people. Through eye contact people send a cord out to drain you long distance. Through sexual manipulation, anyone who can make you like them can drain you.
Frederick Lenz
We seek absolute neutrality in Buddhism. We don't want to be drawn into anything in particular. We don't want to be pushed away from anything in particular.
Frederick Lenz
The aggregates that we pick up in the human plane will be washed away, and we will become pure spirit, pure light, pure love, and pure ecstasy.
Frederick Lenz
Have a healthy respect and love for yourself, but don't be taken out by your ego.
Frederick Lenz
The study of Zen is a retraining. It is a series of new ways, not just one way, to learn to use your mind more efficiently.
Frederick Lenz
In poetry, and in my study in graduate school, I was drawn to a particular poet, Theodore Roethke. I did a dissertation on The Evolution of Matter and Spirit in the Poetry of Theodore Roethke for my Ph.D.
Frederick Lenz
Consider a very natural process, menstruation, and how the association has been created in which this process is dirty, degrading.
Frederick Lenz
I think it is very important to view life in terms of winning and losing until complete enlightenment has occurred.
Frederick Lenz
When you meditate, you will care more for those around you and you will be able to do more for them, as your own awareness advances. Everyone who comes into your field of energy is positively influenced.
Frederick Lenz
Death is simply a change in perception. It is not an end to perception as a finite being.
Frederick Lenz
You're looking through the kaleidoscope of God and seeing God's face in so many ways, as friends, as strangers, passersby, country roads, jammed freeways, the cancer ward, the maternity ward - all the faces of God surround you at all times.
Frederick Lenz
The aura of billions of people coats all experiences like a thick cloud of smog. Just to live on the earth is to live in that smog.
Frederick Lenz
The later stages of the enlightenment process are trickier, and it is really essential to have a teacher then. You need correction, direction, and most of all you need a master's auric empowerment.
Frederick Lenz
Who wants to be stuck in being religious and being spiritual either? That's not freedom. You've just exchanged handcuffs for leg irons - which doesn't mean that you should avoid enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
There comes a time in life when you just buckle down and have a good time with what you're doing. It doesn't matter much what you're doing. What matters is how you do it.
Frederick Lenz
To run away from life and desire is impossible because you are life and you have desire. Accept that this is part of your physical condition and see that these aspects are not really indigenous to what you are.
Frederick Lenz
A person with power has control of their emotions. A person with power can stop fear, stop depression, or they can augment a positive emotion.
Frederick Lenz
It's up to you to avail yourself to knowledge. Knowledge doesn't need you. The idea of a compassionate God was formulated, obviously, by someone who didn't want to do any work.
