More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Loneliness is a feeling that is created by our ego. The ego feels separate from the rest of creation. The answer to overcoming those feelings is ecstasy.
Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
The aggregates that we pick up in the human plane will be washed away, and we will become pure spirit, pure light, pure love, and pure ecstasy.
Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
Dreams are real. This is unreal. This world is unreal. Everybody has it backwards. This is the dream. This is an insubstantial pageant. Nothing here lasts - that is how you know it's the dream.
Frederick Lenz

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 live for a very long while, you will have to watch your friends and loved ones die, your body age and lose its beauty and vigor, and your mental capacities fade.
Frederick Lenz
Take your energy - instead of losing it in all the little hassles and all the little battles you could have fought with opponents who didn't matter.
Frederick Lenz
Love is something that we don't control. We have to be ourselves. You can be sexual, nonsexual, asexual, bisexual, or trisexual and it really doesn't have a lot to do with enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
In your thoughts, you need to be selective. Thoughts are powerful vehicles of attention. Only think positive thoughts about yourself and your endeavors, and think well of the endeavors of others.
Frederick Lenz
Please act in and through me. Please let my love increase, if it is your will. I feel that's the right thing but even if it's not the right thing, I'm willing to abide by your judgment.
Frederick Lenz
The dream is real but it does not last - This is an illusion.
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
Zen is a study. It's a discipline. It involves the active use of will to make things happen or not happen. These are the secrets of power.
Frederick Lenz
