More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Meditation is the art of life. Meditation is not simply a practice. It is an experience, awareness, and a way of perceiving life.
Frederick Lenz
I have yet to see a career that is similar in benefit as computer science for doing the advanced exercises.
Frederick Lenz
If you have done your homework, then the slightest motion from the teacher can cause you to spin into hundreds of different states of mind. That can only happen for the prepared individual.
Frederick Lenz
There are the samskaras, the tendencies from your other lifetimes, ways of seeing, habits that are so strong, they affect you now. They are the operative situations in your life that are created by karma.
Frederick Lenz
I saw Forrest Gump several times. I personally thought it was Tom Hanks' greatest role and I think it was one of the most eloquent love stories of our time.
Frederick Lenz
The shushumna is a tube. It is an astral tube, like a reed. It runs from the base of the spine to between the eyebrows and a little bit above.
Frederick Lenz
Don't focus so much on your relationships. Have fun with them. Or if you don't have them, you don't want them, have fun with that.
Frederick Lenz
If you are truly wise, then you reflect the universe and you are relational in your approach to things. You are a mirror of infinity. That is wisdom.
Frederick Lenz
The ten thousand states of mind that we talk about in Zen are all levels of perception. You can think of each of the ten thousand states of mind as a dimensional plane.
Frederick Lenz
The astral is the supporting ground for the physical dimension.
Frederick Lenz
The tonal is the sense of place. It is order and reason in a world of chaos.
Frederick Lenz
The primary place where most people lose energy is in their relationships with others. That means you lose your energy in your interactions with the people you know best.
Frederick Lenz
So in the path of love - rather than pulling our willpower together, using our discrimination, or working - we just cry inwardly.
Frederick Lenz
Enlightened teachers are not logical. They don't function from levels that are understandable to the human mind. They're not religious. Religions form around them, usually after they've died.
Frederick Lenz
The vast majority of the people who populate our planet live lives of quiet desperation that are all too often quite harsh and painful, lives in which events and circumstances usually don't turn out the way they had hoped or planned.
Frederick Lenz
The energy strands and bands of our being are linked in a certain way and makes us what we are. It causes us to perceive a certain level of the dream of life. But you can reorder those. That's magic, you see.
Frederick Lenz
Everything is part of one web, one matrix of existence, beyond discussion. This is our true self in its undifferentiated form.
Frederick Lenz
When you could get angry with someone and separate yourself from them, don't do that. If you have people who are difficult to deal with, be neither attracted nor repulsed. Go a step higher.
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
A walk in the woods can reveal many things, and it is a good time to practice transcendentalism. Look at a tree and realize it's not just a tree, its roots may go into the ground but it may also go into other worlds, other eternities.
