More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Work in a place that feels good to you. Select the best of that which is available. The Zen of working is just to do it, not to worry about it. Feel you would be doing it without the money.
Frederick Lenz
If you want to help people, if you care, go to the cities. The city is where the pain is the greatest - and the cities are a hell of a lot of fun if you like art, movies and plays.
Frederick Lenz
Flaky devotionalism, bowing and scraping and sucking up to the teacher is very phony. It is counterproductive to enlightenment and spiritual development. What is necessary is mutual respect.
Frederick Lenz
Our past affects us, our present affects us, and even our future can affect us. We live in the relative world of time and space.
Frederick Lenz
Look for the things in your life that bring you stillness and happiness, not the things that make you crazy. Look inside yourself and look for that perfect stillness.
Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
This solidity is not true. The apparent solidity is the delusion of the senses and of the self. Everything is made up of infinite, intelligent light.
Frederick Lenz
God is seen as a male whose first creation was another man, Adam, whom we are told was made in his image and likeness.
Frederick Lenz
We sit here on the oasis of human consciousness and the verbal plane trying to talk about something that we just have to go and see and do and feel.
Frederick Lenz
When thought stops, a doorway opens into dimensions that are pure and unassociated. They're nonbinding realities. They're non-samskaric, which simply means that they're beautiful they're ecstatic.
Frederick Lenz
There are many ways to store power. You can visit places of power, special locations on the earth that are charged with power.
Frederick Lenz
The teaching that we receive is not necessarily very accurate. The value systems that our cultures have developed are not every open. They are very restrictive. We live in an age that is not enlightened.
Frederick Lenz
There is illusion, the way you see things now, thinking that there is a tomorrow, there is a today, there is time and that there is life and death. Those are just appearances
Frederick Lenz
As a dialectical teacher, I have had many lives where I have taught Zen and Tibetan Buddhism and mysticism. I teach in many different modalites. But the theme that unites them - is love.
Frederick Lenz
I think one can advance faster outside a monastery if you use the experiences of daily life to advance yourself.
Frederick Lenz
Power itself is simply a word to describe attention, awareness, which embodies all things.
Frederick Lenz
