You can go to India and you can see gurus go into samadhi. But when they come out of samadhi, they're nasty. They're egocentric. They don't have a deep regard or understanding of what life is. It's just a little trick they can do, a one-trick pony.
Frederick Lenz
Tantric Buddhism is just a collection of things that work by doing them. And sometimes we add new things. We have electronic music we did not have it in Tibet.
Frederick Lenz
When you go into samadhi, either salvikalpa or nirvikalpa, what happens is you erase, you loosen, the aggregates. You simplify them.
Frederick Lenz
Love more deeply and without the sense of what you love being your personal possession.
Frederick Lenz
If you think it makes a difference if I have ten thousand sports cars, ten million girlfriends and lead a very flashy life ... I don't think you should work with any teacher because you don't know what it is all about yet.
Frederick Lenz
We are all incarnate Buddhas. We just have not realized it deeply. We have not moved the mind - what our friend Don Juan calls the assemblage point.
Frederick Lenz
