When you do something half-heartedly, you don't get much of a result. When you do it fully, you get a great result.

Software is a reflection of our own mind. And as our software improves it will not only take on the patterns of our minds more closely, but it will also pick up the energy of our minds in other words, I think that software is alive.

Once you are enlightened, you can do whatever you want without fear or sorrow. You can go snowboarding, get married, stay single, be rich and famous, or live unknown in a high Himalayan cave. It is up to you.

The abuse of power manifests with phony spiritual teachers and phony gurus who tell you how to run your life and what to wear and what to eat, all that sort of stuff. They abuse. People don't realize that, listen to them and ruin their lives.

Image
When you die in this life, you might be experiencing pain, but the structure of your perceptual field will determine your next lifetime. That structure has been determined by the way you have led this life.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Buddhism is the study of changing who we are, modifying or perhaps totally restructuring ourselves as perceivers.
Frederick Lenz
Image
One who practices the yoga of love is like child. When the child has a problem, it cries. When it cries, someone comes and helps the child.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Beyond this world there are myriad worlds, thousands of inter-dimensional planes with different types of beings going through other cycles of existence. Beyond all beings is something that is eternal.
Frederick Lenz
Image
People who practice Zen correctly are not spaced-out or unrealistic. They are balanced and grounded.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If you are finding that you can stop thought longer and longer, I would say your life is bringing power into your being. You are gaining things out from that field behind the house.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Words are a human way of trying to describe things. But they're much more of interference than they are a help in the world of enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
Image
There are other options that no one ever told you about. These are things mom and dad never explained to you your teachers didn't know they weren't enlightened. They weren't luminous beings that stood out of time and space.

Image
I realized after being married for some time that it wasn't enough. It wasn't enough to lead an individual life where I loved on person and we created a world together.
