Frederick Lenz
Men are really not all that interested in sex. For most men, sex is a very simple experience.
Frederick Lenz
Some people get tired of continual perception of the finite universe. They feel the perception of the universe over and over in variant forms is kind of an unhappy condition, because it doesn't last.
Frederick Lenz
What we seek to do in Tantric Buddhism is to liquefy ourselves. Life will automatically bring us to the next stage. You don't really have to know where you're going - It's like breathing.
Frederick Lenz
Power comes from the navel center. If you meditate for an hour or so a day and you focus on that sphere, you will release a tremendous power that will enter your body. We call it the chi.
Frederick Lenz
Determine where you are and where you wish to be. Then use all of your self-effort to make that happen, following the guiding principles of all the Buddhas and bohisattvas and seekers of the dharma, of enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
You need to turn your room into a place of power. It's a good idea to have flowers around, candles, incense, you know, happy things. Make your room into a beautiful place and keep it impeccably clean.
Frederick Lenz
The network of enlightenment is a very wide network. It's not relegated to a simple type of being. It's not the network of the goody-goods.
Frederick Lenz
Nothing is any particular way. It's your state of mind that creates reality.
Frederick Lenz
Everyone experiences desire. Desire is not bad. There is no good or bad from the point of view of karma. There is only structured reaction.
Frederick Lenz
Love yourself even when you don't measure up to your own expectations. You have a certain idea of what you should do and what you should be - it's only a silly idea that passes through your mind.
Frederick Lenz
We learn that those around us are an extension of ourselves, both animate and inanimate. All things have a life and form. We learn to love them all.
Frederick Lenz
I realized that my friends in the ashram needed to be celibate because, for them, sexuality was a very tacky issue.
Frederick Lenz
If you accentuate yourself, thinking or acting like you are important, then you must want to look good to someone in this world. In order to impress or sway anybody in this world, you have to be in this world yourself.
Frederick Lenz
In the study of Zen you can learn how to strengthen and clarify your finite mind. Your finite mind is like a muscle when exercised it becomes stronger.
Frederick Lenz
Two people can be work at the same job, side by side. One person is working just for a paycheck. Another is working to perfect their being. Some people think that the material world will make them happy.
Frederick Lenz
Sexuality, for the person who practices tantra, is a marvelous way to experience illusion. Illusion is just another way of seeing things. There are no illusions because there is no self.
Frederick Lenz
It is implicit in the self that the self will automatically evolve if you can dissolve it. It re-patterns itself after archetypal formations that exist deep within the mind.
Frederick Lenz
Tantric Zen is not being kinky nor is it being conservative and austere. It is eclectic. It is a real mixture of all things.
Frederick Lenz
Celibacy doesn't make you enlightened, otherwise every nun or priest in Buddhism or Christianity would be enlightened. People who don't date and can't get any action would be enlightened.
