More quotes by Frederick Lenz
As a teacher you just look at someone and you transmit to them what they need to know. Not simply a thought form, but you transmit an awareness level.
Frederick Lenz
There are beings who come into this world, from time to time, not simply with miraculous powers, which we call the siddhas, but with a miraculous awareness that is so strong yet so subtle that anyone or anything that touches that awareness is transformed forever.
Frederick Lenz
You can get stuck in being wise. You can get stuck in having a developed will. It is very hard to get stuck in being happy. It is too lucid a state of mind.
Frederick Lenz
The key to selfless giving is that you feel good when you do it and you feel good afterwards.
Frederick Lenz
It's like looking at the sun, that's how infinity is. You can't look at it for too long or you dissolve. The bands of your attention break. But if you look at it in specific ways, you can become something or someone much more conscious.
Frederick Lenz
If you wish to cultivate humility, then you should associate with those who are humble.
Frederick Lenz
An enlightened teacher simply expresses enlightenment in their life by living. It is the student's job to gain the teachings. The teacher's job is just to be perfectly enlightened.
Frederick Lenz
True teachers of enlightenment are hard to find. The popular ones, of course, usually aren't enlightened because how could they be? They just tell people what they want to hear.
Frederick Lenz
I think to be in a monastery or an ashram is not always the answer because we don't fight, we kick back. We don't listen to Sri Krishna.
Frederick Lenz
It is best to think of karma, not so much in terms of physical action, but as waveforms of vibratory energy.
Frederick Lenz
My problem with L. A. was that I could see the air I was breathing, I don't particularly like crowds, and I was much better at snowboarding than I was at surfing.
Frederick Lenz
I'm not blaming men, I'm not blaming women. What's gone by has already gone by. It's history. It's done. There is no right or wrong in higher spirituality.
Frederick Lenz
Let the rain of unhappy and tragic experiences fall, as sometimes it inevitably must, even in the lives of the enlightened masters. If your mind has become one with nirvana, you will remain happy at all times.
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
If you are around a lot of human beings who are filled with jealousy and anger and rage and desire, it filters into the mind. Zen is writing a new program to run in the mind.
Frederick Lenz
Once in a while an enlightened teacher goes out into the world and spreads the dharma. They attract some attention, and it is a great spectacle to see who and why and what is drawn.
Frederick Lenz
The light is not quantifiable. You experience it in meditation when thought stops. When you go beyond the limitations of the ego, the light is waiting for you.
Frederick Lenz
In meditation we get a sense of the countless selves within ourselves, the different forms they take. Those that don't seem positive or helpful we push aside. Those that seem progressive we enjoy.
Frederick Lenz
In real self-giving we are inspired. Whether they acknowledge us or not is not important.
Frederick Lenz
I don't think you see your minds. I think you see your thoughts you see your desires you see your relatives, friends, lovers, enemies. I don't think you see your mind. You think of the mind as the clutter.
