Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
A better name for nirvana might be endless love. Love not even in the sense that we see it if we're watching the romantic movie, but love in a sense of no absence.
Frederick Lenz
If the Zen master sees that it will cause a person to progress, he will ask that person to do a task. The task is charged with power if it's performed properly. It's a koan between yourself and the Zen Master.
Frederick Lenz
Zen doesn't believe in the reconciliation of opposites because from the point of view of Zen, there is no point of view.
Frederick Lenz
There are ten thousand states of mind. The culmination of the states of mind you have gone through will create your next lifetime.
Frederick Lenz
The future is certain for those who follow dharma. Those who don't follow dharma are pushed back again and again into the net of rebirth. They are drawn back to the same planes of attention, or lower. It could happen to you!
Frederick Lenz
It is my belief that one of the most exciting things about the World Wide Web is that they allow minds, as Spock might say, to meld. The transfer of consciousness through a variety of mediums is nothing new.
Frederick Lenz
It's a civil war, and Arjuna knows a lot of people who are on the opposite side of the battlefield - they've been his friends.
Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
