Enter into the activities of the world, without getting overjoyed by success or totally put out by failure. Whether they love you or hate you, it doesn't much matter. What matters is stillness.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
None of this matters a bit. Yet, of course, it matters at that moment. So we try to be mindful of the moment but it's fleeting.
Frederick Lenz
It is called enlightenment, nirvana, God, truth, call it what you will. There is no activity other than the eternal activities of the universe, perfect being, the awareness of all suchness, knowledge.
Frederick Lenz
Enlightenment is part of everything and so our minds have to be very big to encompass all things, to understand all things - To see the tao in a grape, the act of sexuality, meditation, work, play, taking a shower, brushing your teeth, being sick and hurting.
Frederick Lenz
It is your causal body that is the real you. At the end of each incarnation, it carries the knowledge and karmic patterns of that lifetime, in addition to all of your other previous lifetimes, into your next lifetime.
Frederick Lenz
You can just stay in oblivion, going through your days and your life and your experiences, staying with your friends, family. If that suits you, it's good. But for some people, it's not enough.
Frederick Lenz
Christ was crucified because he threatened the tonal of the time. He was killed because he threatened the established order of the political regime.
Frederick Lenz
It's just not working. One nation trying to destroy another, one race trying to destroy another, one religion trying to destroy another - It's the same old story over and over again.
Frederick Lenz
We forget about the space between the stars, the pure and perfect space that's also the eye of God. To penetrate the mystery is to become the mystery to penetrate infinity is to become infinity to penetrate light is to become light.
Frederick Lenz
If you follow anything far enough in the universe, it will eventually lead to light.
Frederick Lenz
Men are really not all that interested in sex. For most men, sex is a very simple experience.
Frederick Lenz
I've never met anyone who's serious about enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
When you realize that the ego is making you miserable you don't identify with it. You identify with your soul's humility and the ego dissolves.
Frederick Lenz
Enlightenment has nothing to do with physical knowledge. It is the experience of existence. Existence is infinite. There are countless universes and creations taking place simultaneously.
Frederick Lenz
It is only if you have the courage to follow your heart that you will succeed on the path of love.
Frederick Lenz
There is suffering and there is joy. Your life is very short, and then you're back again for another and another, forever, unless you step off the wheel.
Frederick Lenz
Perception is the ability to be conscious of self and that which is other than self. Without thinking about it, a distinction is made between who we are and what we perceive.
Frederick Lenz
If you look deeply inside them you'll only see eternity whereas with most human beings, when you look inside, you'll see all kinds of different things.
Frederick Lenz
Obviously there is a lot more ecstasy in the spirit than in the flesh but the flesh has its moments!
Frederick Lenz
Karma will lead you to a larger more expansive happier view or a dinger darker view. That view will enable you to make choices and have experiences.
Frederick Lenz
At an early age I found the world a very natural place to be. I was always in a meditative consciousness as a child, which children are.
Frederick Lenz
