The road for Arjuna is unexpected. Sri Krishna says you have to face that which you fear the most that which you're most attached to and eliminate it. In this case he has to fight a battle, and the battle is his attachments.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
In America people have this funny idea about enlightenment and money. Money expresses a level of commitment. Studying enlightenment is like going to a university.
Frederick Lenz
I would suggest your awareness is your karma. How you feel generates your level of attention.
Frederick Lenz
Once we erase ourselves, then there's no eraser. There never was anyone to erase. We've awakened from the dream and the dream has faded.
Frederick Lenz
Are you still carrying everyone who's insulted you, injured you or interfered with you? That's a lot of weight. I'd let it go, personally, and just move on and forget. Be in the moment. Don't even notice.
Frederick Lenz
When you are not following dharma, then you will not be at peace. You will not be happy. The simplest things will seem to be endless obstacles.
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
Life hurts at times. It hurts to have a body at times, hurts to be born, hurts to live, hurts to die, but it can be ecstasy beyond comprehension. You can know that ecstasy. It is inside of you.
Frederick Lenz
While people who are enlightened are worthy of respect, to put them on a pedestal is a mistake. To undervalue them is also a mistake.
Frederick Lenz
Everybody deals with stress differently. Some people drink, some people use drugs, some people watch TV. I have always found that extreme athletics chills me out and leaves me in a very centered place.
Frederick Lenz
I deal with two types of students. Those who have a very deep-seated knowledge of love, which are few, or those in all their lives have ignored love.
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
If silence only conveys the Self, if all words and thoughts are illusions, why do we discuss it?
Frederick Lenz
A number of Guru's feel that there is something wrong or sick about being gay. I think it really doesn't matter what your sexual preference is what matters is the quality of your love.
Frederick Lenz
The inner aspects of reincarnation have to do with where you put your mind. The more expansive state of mind you enter into, the less suffering there is.
Frederick Lenz
What we're seeking to do is internalize perception. Perception is very much involved with the senses and the mental processes and the emotional processes.
Frederick Lenz
I observe many people who say they are meditating, but I sure don't see them meditating. They sit and touch a lot of people, places and things psychically, but they sure don't meditate.
Frederick Lenz
Any area you slough off in your life will reflect in your meditation. Be happy when you could be depressed. Push jealous, fear, and anger out of your mind. Don't feel sorry for yourself.
Frederick Lenz
Don't become a slave to success or failure, family, friends, possessions. If these things come to you in life, enjoy them, but fix your consciousness on that which does not change.
Frederick Lenz
Spiritual balance is how you deal with opposition, outside of yourself and within.
Frederick Lenz
You need your reason to pass through the world and also to experience the nagual, because if you become all nagual, we'll lock you away in an institution.
Frederick Lenz
