The pathway to enlightenment is joyful. It may sound harsh. I suggest just the opposite. It is rather easy compared to the possibilities of staying in pain and illusion.

Pure and simple, balance is happiness.

Frederick Lenz
Image
The wisdom of samadhi is quite different. Higher level wisdom cannot be written down. It cannot be spoken. True wisdom is the knowledge of the universe that is beyond physical expression.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Zen is not a religion. There is no room for a cult. There is no dependence on a teacher. There is only learning how to use your own mind and making it strong.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You may have had countless lives, and many more stretching before you, and what else have you got to do with your time?
Frederick Lenz
Image
What the teacher does is sweep all of the logic, order and reason onto one side and make that side very strong.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The tonal is so strong, that it even arranges a syntactical place for God and thus kills the mystery, the reality, and paralyzes the being.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Paradise is not the place you go when you die. Paradise is when your mind is in a perfect state.

Image
Don't just sit there. Go do something and don't expect that it's going to be fun unless you make it fun. You have got to work on things. That is when you are happy.

The third eye is located between the eyebrows and a little above. The heart center is located directly in the center of the chest. The naval center is about two inches below the navel.
