Frederick Lenz
Image
People focus on things that vibrate very slowly during meditation and because they are so open they make themselves really sick, psychically.
Frederick Lenz
Image
We have to remind ourselves that we are not the transitory body, we are not the person who is having experiences, we are not affected by action or inaction.
Frederick Lenz
Image
There is a popular conception about karma, and that is that as you sow, so shall you reap. That's only true if you're a farmer.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Yoga is a removal of the conscious awareness from the world as you know it - the world that you've constructed - through your focus within your mind, to something else.
Frederick Lenz
Image
This is the most exciting study there is. It is the only thing I know of in life that makes you feel consistently better, whether it's success or failure, whether they love you or hate you.
Frederick Lenz
Image

Frederick Lenz
Image
It is possible to move to an enlightened state of mind from a lower bardo or level of awareness. It can happen, but it is extremely unlikely.
Frederick Lenz
Image
With Zen we do it more through slight of hand, a very subtle and delicate shift in consciousness, which shifts the world. It's kind of done from the inside out.

If I have led my life totally deliberately, then when I come to the end of the diving board, I can just fall off the diving board and it will be perfect. I won't even remember what happened.
