More quotes by Frederick Lenz
I am the happiest person I've ever met. This is what Buddhist Yoga and a healthy dose of reading the Declaration of the Independence, The Constitution and the Federalist Papers and anything else I could get my hands on has given me.
Frederick Lenz
A great deal of energy is lost in the study by people who interact with non-physical beings. They get into your mind and your body by approaching you in the dream plane, promising you powers, playing on your desires. They sap your life force.
Frederick Lenz
The tantras are ancient sacred books of India and Tibet. The tantras detail specific means for attaining liberation.
Frederick Lenz
They say Casanova made love to over 10,000 women. Do you think it changed him? It probably aged him a little bit. But I doubt that it changed him. If it had changed him, he would have stopped somewhere along the line and done something a little different.
Frederick Lenz
It will take about a month for that awareness to be fully absorbed and modify someone's attention field. During that period of time, a person who studies with me will meditate on their own, and apply those things that they have learned to their daily lives.
Frederick Lenz
I don't think you see your minds. I think you see your thoughts you see your desires you see your relatives, friends, lovers, enemies. I don't think you see your mind. You think of the mind as the clutter.
Frederick Lenz
There is no evil, there's no bad there's no good. These are human ideas. There's no creator, there's no creation there's no God, there's no nirvana, there's no perfection. These are ideas.
Frederick Lenz
I don't believe in anything, yet I believe emphatically in almost everything. It all depends on what seems appropriate at the time.
Frederick Lenz
You can't die. Bodies come and go but your spirit is eternal. You're the stuff that life is.
Frederick Lenz
You can't just sit in emptiness. Even the enlightened don't sit in emptiness. We call it emptiness - but we move our mind into a world of light.
Frederick Lenz
To be fixated on Sahaja Samadhi is to be fixated. To be fixated on the idea of being not fixated is fixation too. All these ideas and definitions about enlightenment become silly.
Frederick Lenz
Purity is developed through caring. You need to care about light and the matters of light, truth, religion and spirituality.
Frederick Lenz
Let us say your wife, husband, boyfriend, girlfriend makes you happy. If they leave, you're bound to be unhappy. You are the slave of the thing that makes you happy. You are a junkie and human relationships can be expensive habits.
Frederick Lenz
The planes of light give you the power to rise above circumstance, the power to rise above your desires and your aversions.
Frederick Lenz
Most teachers of self-discovery have two types of students. They have students they deal with in a more exoteric way than the esoteric students. Esoteric truths are presented to usually a smaller group of students.
Frederick Lenz
Each one of you has created a sense of self. That's what the tonal does. Each one of you is taught a system of maintenance that has been developed by humankind from your birth till your death.
Frederick Lenz
Chaos is not disorder. Chaos is the totality of existence. You could call it God. You could use the term, the Tao. I like chaos. It means more to us in English. Chaos is all things, wild and wonderful, connected perfectly by the life force.
Frederick Lenz
Pilgrimages are journeys to places of power. People sometimes make pilgrimages to the caves where Milarepa or other great yogis meditated.
Frederick Lenz
The best form of meditation is the sitting meditation. But work is next. Work is a great way to meditate.
Frederick Lenz
Since there were others, a long time ago, who were kind enough to give me a hard time and allow me to study with them, I try and express the same Buddhist courtesy.
