Quote

Your life is either getting brighter from moment to moment or it's not. If it's not getting brighter, it's because there's no risk. There's no risk in thinking instead of stopping your thought. There's a lot of risk in stopping your thought.

A Buddhist is working not just to get paid, but working to advance spiritually. You shouldn't create a syntactical break in your mind between your career and your religious practice.
Frederick Lenz
Image
An enlightened master is a perpetual source of the cosmic light because his mind is always merged with nirvana.
Frederick Lenz

We label things through value systems that we have developed. But nothing is or is not unless we feel it is that way. We give ground to reality by creating it.
Frederick Lenz
Image
We want to see the universe in its absolute, pure, naked, perfection. We want to know its wonder. We want to know the totality of ourselves. That's done in steps and degrees and not in one day.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Light by its very nature is endless. Therefore you can never say you've had the ultimate experience in light - it goes on forever.

Clothing has a great deal to do with the attitudes and energy that others direct towards you. I favor the chic, and tend to avoid the trendy. I think that it's good to be chic when possible because it is more inaccessible.
