More quotes by Frederick Lenz
You can be in a state of mind for a few seconds and forget that you were ever in any other state of mind. That's what we mean by illusion.
Frederick Lenz
Take a yoga class, study different forms of self-discovery. Some people are crazy and fanatical, avoid them. People who are balanced and calm and introspective, associating with them will raise your energy level.
Frederick Lenz
You must realize you are not the doer, that you are not the action.
Frederick Lenz
The causal structure determines the rate and method of evolution, your awareness of the universe.
Frederick Lenz
Many sections are taken up with political discussions and how the way of the ruler, the merchant, the householder, and the army interact with the Tao.
Frederick Lenz
A child is imprinted not by simply teaching. But their attention is like soft clay. The attention field of adults is stratified. They are like hard clay and we push them on each side of the child's attention field.
Frederick Lenz
If I used justice, you'd all be dead. The karma that you throw at me when you don't like me - if I just let it come back, you'd all be destroyed in no time.
Frederick Lenz
Spiritual Balance is the obvious answer to the obsession that sometimes accompanies religious practice, occult practice, philosophical understandings - the assertion that one is right - that something that you're doing is better than something somebody else is doing, the way you're doing it is better than the way someone else is doing it.
Frederick Lenz
Nothing is any particular way. It's your state of mind that creates reality.
Frederick Lenz
Meditate well so you can be a good instrument of eternity. You could have a mediocre meditation today, but you're not going to. Today you might run into someone who you might talk to about the dharma.
Frederick Lenz
Psychic awareness leads to a true perception not only of events, but just of life itself. It is its own raison d'etre.
Frederick Lenz
The trick to keeping your meditation practice alive, not simply consistent but wonderful, is you need to bring a certain will or force into every meditation.
Frederick Lenz
In Nirvana, it is you, my friend, who goes away. You take an eraser and erase yourself. It's like the Road Runner cartoons where in the middle of the cartoon, the hand of the artist appears on the screen and erases the Road Runner.
Frederick Lenz
The end of this world occurs when you move from one world into another, from one reality into another.
Frederick Lenz
We need to preserve these sacred locations for ourselves, for the species of plants and animals that coexist in harmony there, and for the future generations of humankind that will need to be refreshed, renewed and healed by them.
Frederick Lenz
Who has that absolute trust, to fling yourself into mortality, to let it do with you as it will, with all the permutations and possibilities of as it will, be it horror or ecstasy or boredom?
Frederick Lenz
We must control the tendencies within our being that are destructive, when we want to slam somebody else, hurt them, injure them, or push them out of the way. A reverence for life needs to be developed, in which all things are sacred.
Frederick Lenz
Most people don't why they are born or why they die. They have no understanding of the forces in life that pull them and push them to their death and another rebirth in this or another world.
Frederick Lenz
Even after only several weeks of practicing meditation, you will begin to have more energy and be a little bit happier. Eventually, you will experience ecstasy and knowledge beyond the power of words to describe!
Frederick Lenz
Learn to accept the transitory nature of existence of the body and the mind see eternity in everything, this world, the other worlds, and nirvana.
Frederick Lenz
