More quotes by Frederick Lenz
I realized that my friends in the ashram needed to be celibate because, for them, sexuality was a very tacky issue.
Frederick Lenz
The effort to lift one's self into perfect enlightenment is a profound thing. It has nothing to do with individual will. It's a refraction of the cosmos. The cosmos delights in itself.
Frederick Lenz
Watch out for dark streets in big cities because there are a lot of strange beings that hang out there at night, let alone the people. Don't you remember anything from your other lives?
Frederick Lenz
If you start picking up other people's impressions while you are meditating, then instead of clearing yourself, you are just going to completely glom yourself up to the point where there is no meditation.
Frederick Lenz
Purity is developed through caring. You need to care about light and the matters of light, truth, religion and spirituality.
Frederick Lenz
In this prison camp, the Gestapo state brain-police planet Earth, what is normal is insane and what is insane is normal. But it doesn't pay to tell that to the local politicians or other organizational structures that run the place that. They didn't crucify Christ because they liked what he said.
Frederick Lenz
It is possible to move to an enlightened state of mind from a lower bardo or level of awareness. It can happen, but it is extremely unlikely.
Frederick Lenz
The universe is holding congress with itself.
Frederick Lenz
After this happens again and again, we reach a point were there is nothing but satori, which is what nirvikalpa samadhi is like.
Frederick Lenz
My problem with L. A. was that I could see the air I was breathing, I don't particularly like crowds, and I was much better at snowboarding than I was at surfing.
Frederick Lenz
No one sees life like you do, because you are no one. You change constantly, like the light outside the window.
Frederick Lenz
This is a place where the strong often victimize the weak.
Frederick Lenz
You must learn to meditate and stop your thoughts. You must overcome all egotism and selfishness by serving others. You must cleanse your mind so that enlightenment will find a happy place to reside there.
Frederick Lenz
There are ten thousand planes of awareness within the infinite mind of the diamond mind, your deeper mind.
Frederick Lenz
What I do, the teacher of the nagual, is open up the bubble of your luminosity and allow the luminous being to take short excursions into the unknown.
Frederick Lenz
You see two people together. They're in a relationship. It's really power that holds those people together. And when the designs of power change, those people will separate and there's nothing they can do in the meantime about it.
Frederick Lenz
Reality is not the world as you perceive it. Reality is the world perceived through enlightenment. It's the same world but it's not the same world.
Frederick Lenz
As the kundalini energy increases, as the energy of the psyche becomes more pronounced, which it does as thought becomes eclipsed by silence, all the variant mind states burn away.
Frederick Lenz
A critical part of Tantric Buddhism is a process of turning of the activities and experiences in your daily life into meditation.
Frederick Lenz
True wisdom is to see and understand your relationship with the universe. When you gain that relational knowledge, then you are wise.
Frederick Lenz
