Within silence all things are contained. What appears to our eyes to be life is but a thin curtain, a gauze penumbra, which stultifies our vision, which prevents us from seeing the truth.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Most people lead lives of frustration and disapointment. They enjoy temporary pleasures and long-lasting suffering.
Frederick Lenz
Thinking is usually a waste of time and energy, since thinking is essentially a rehashing of what we already know. As a matter of fact, thinking is an easy way to confuse yourself. The more you think, the less you know.
Frederick Lenz
Learn to let go. You do it a little at a time.
Frederick Lenz
Everything that you are or conceive of yourself as being is just an idea. It's an illusion. It's a hallucination.
Frederick Lenz
It's far better to love impefectly than not to love at all.
Frederick Lenz
Fair Game Theory: If you are dumb enough to be drained by people then you are fair game.
Frederick Lenz
Spiritual balance is tai chi. It is the center of things. It is the place where yin and yang meet. In the chakras, it is considered the heart chalkra, anahata.
Frederick Lenz
Reincarnation is a hopeful understanding of life. It is an accurate understanding of life. In each lifetime we grow, develop and evolve.
Frederick Lenz
Everyone is psychic. People just don't know that. They think so much. They worry so much. They're so caught up in unhappy emotions. They're not still enough.
Frederick Lenz
There is a beautiful flow to the study of Zen. If it is not making you happier, then you are not practicing correctly.
Frederick Lenz
Clothing has a great deal to do with the attitudes and energy that others direct towards you. I favor the chic, and tend to avoid the trendy. I think that it's good to be chic when possible because it is more inaccessible.
Frederick Lenz
If you meditate, you can experience the other worlds, the far-flung eternities and dimensions - and you are not stuck in any one of them.
Frederick Lenz
If you are unhappy - be that way in your bedroom - but whenever you come out into the world, in real selfless giving we push all of that aside and we smile, love and give to others.
Frederick Lenz
Ecstasy can be painful when it's intense enough, when the kundalini surges enough. The ecstasy is so complete, it's overwhelming sometimes.
Frederick Lenz
An enlightened person is not in touch with all the ten thousand states of mind simultaneously always. It would be very hard to go shopping let alone drive the car.
Frederick Lenz
When you cause something to happen it causes a shift in your awareness. Shifts in your awareness ultimately will result in a pattern shift in your life.
Frederick Lenz
When you are not following dharma, then you will not be at peace. You will not be happy. The simplest things will seem to be endless obstacles.
Frederick Lenz
When you meditate you feel joy, harmony, peace, stillness, ecstasy, laughter, certainty, courage, strength, awareness and immortality. In the beginning you will feel these things vaguely, a distant knocking at your castle door.
Frederick Lenz
If you respect it in others, you respect it in yourself.
Frederick Lenz
Other networks seek to interfere with the natural process of chaos. Enlightenment is chaos, complete beyond conception
