Happiness comes from living in the moment, this moment, now, right here. If you are in obscure states of mind, you won't see what this moment is. You won't realize its beauty.

Who has that absolute trust, to fling yourself into mortality, to let it do with you as it will, with all the permutations and possibilities of as it will, be it horror or ecstasy or boredom?
Frederick Lenz
Image

Frederick Lenz
Image

Frederick Lenz
Image
When you visit Nirvana, there is neither existence nor nonexistence. Your baggage never arrives because there is no one there to claim it.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Greed, fear, lust, hate, jealousy, these are part of reality too ... bundles of consciousness wrapped tightly, barbs on which you can injure yourself, volatile energies that serve as separations between yourself and perfect stillness.
Frederick Lenz
Image
There are thousands of worlds, thousands of dimensional planes, billions. Life is endless. It goes on forever.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Reincarnation is a cyclic process. There are endless levels of creation, different universes. In each one something similar is taking place, the evolution of spirit through matter.

The avoidance of that which causes you pain does not produce enlightenment. It produces avoidance. Religion is the avoidance of pain and suffering.
