The world you experience, every day and night of your life, is transient. They only last for the blink of an eye, and then they dissolve back into that unknowable and formless eternity.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Those who seek liberation want to go beyond individualized perception. The essence of their being wants to dissolve back into the cosmos.
Frederick Lenz
In meditation, when your mind becomes perfectly still and calm, you will experience the golden light of eternity.
Frederick Lenz
Do not be selfish and feel new people will take more of the teacher's attention and you won't get it. That's nonsense. With that attitude, you won't get it. The teacher sees that attitude and will have very little to do with you.
Frederick Lenz
In Zen you are learning how to make new realities, to build things inside your mind.
Frederick Lenz
Reincarnation is the dissolution of the self. It's like going swimming in the ocean, no one ever comes out, because one has become the ocean.
Frederick Lenz
Expect forces to interfere with you and expect to conquer them all, if you are serious about the study. Just as there are powers that interfere with those who seek enlightenment, there are forces that will help.
Frederick Lenz
To be enlightened means that you really don't change, and yet you're nothing but change.
Frederick Lenz
Some people meditate because they want to get the larger picture on life. It could get kind of discouraging if this was all there was.
Frederick Lenz
The Buddhist mind is more complicated than the Christian mind. It comes up with endless heavens, endless hells, endless earths, and then we have something lower than hell. We have endless sub-realms that make hell look like Club Med and we have endless nirvana.
Frederick Lenz
Unlock the power of the will. Learn balance and gain the knowledge and wisdom necessary to guide those powers, to succeed in sports and athletics.
Frederick Lenz
You can be alone too in the city streets, among the crowds. We are all alone.
Frederick Lenz
There are people who will think of you in negative ways. You will feel it sometimes. It can actually be physically painful if they're somewhat powerful. You simply have to remove yourself inwardly from these individuals.
Frederick Lenz
Meditate. Look at the candle flame - or whatever object you have chosen to gaze upon - with intensity.
Frederick Lenz
Only a pure heart, a completely pure heart can house eternity.
Frederick Lenz
Winning begins at home. It begins with your thoughts and your actions.
Frederick Lenz
Don't fight with your thoughts or try to suppress them with your will. This will only frustrate you and bind you to your thoughts even more strongly.
Frederick Lenz
The universe is perfection. But there are different views that universe provides for itself to view itself. Beyond all views there is nirvana.
Frederick Lenz
You have to be careful that in giving energy, you do not allow yourself to be excessively drained or used.
Frederick Lenz
Think of your mind as a muscle. The more you use it, the stronger it will become.
Frederick Lenz
If I have led my life totally deliberately, then when I come to the end of the diving board, I can just fall off the diving board and it will be perfect. I won't even remember what happened.
