Frederick Lenz
Image
There's no place to go. There's nothing to attain. There's nothing to be reached. Love itself is all that you want.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Our life interferes, our mind, our thoughts. Meditating is not just a practice of asserting will and learning to control the mind, it is also developing control of one's life and gaining wisdom.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You must learn to meditate and stop your thoughts. You must overcome all egotism and selfishness by serving others. You must cleanse your mind so that enlightenment will find a happy place to reside there.
