We dream forever unless we awaken. We move from one dream to another, some beautiful, some we're the hero or the heroine, some horrible, some nonsensical, some boring.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
It is only when you realize that you are mortal and yet immortal simultaneously that you begin to realize that the beautiful incongruities of existence aren't incongruous at all, but rather perfect.
Frederick Lenz
If you can't think of an enlightened person positively, don't think of them at all.
Frederick Lenz
If you meditate you will change in ways that I cannot understand. But that is neither here nor there.
Frederick Lenz
The world you experience, every day and night of your life, is transient. They only last for the blink of an eye, and then they dissolve back into that unknowable and formless eternity.
Frederick Lenz
You see two people together. They're in a relationship. It's really power that holds those people together. And when the designs of power change, those people will separate and there's nothing they can do in the meantime about it.
Frederick Lenz
As you learn to accept that the body is transitory, as you watch it with love, but without attachment, the body will develop purity.
Frederick Lenz
Zen is the study of mind in all of its manifestations. The purpose of Zen is to be happy.
Frederick Lenz
When we talk, answer questions, I'm addressing your tonal. I'm teaching you a way or a series of ways of dealing with the world.
Frederick Lenz
The difficult opponent is the best.
Frederick Lenz
When you can successfully stop thought for longer periods of time, you do move into other worlds. This can also happen in the very beginning, if a person meditates with someone who is very advanced.
Frederick Lenz
The effort to lift one's self into perfect enlightenment is a profound thing. It has nothing to do with individual will. It's a refraction of the cosmos. The cosmos delights in itself.
Frederick Lenz
Most people suffer in love because of attachment. Attachment means we're interested in a net return on our investment.
Frederick Lenz
Zen students see themselves as athletes. Their competitive sport is enlightenment only with enlightenment do we compete.
Frederick Lenz
You might wish to try Kali's mantra. Kali is another celestial being. She offers very fast spiritual progress through intensity. Her mantra is Kring! When you chant Kring, chant it very intensely and sharply. Only chant Kring when you are in a high meditation.
Frederick Lenz
All the billions of people who now inhabit our planet are putting a terrific strain on its aura, making it difficult, even for evolved people to become aware of their past-life knowledge and talents.
Frederick Lenz
There's a resonance inside us, a sense of who we are. We're a multi-bodied traveler. We're an essence. We're a feeling, an awareness that has an ancient existence.
Frederick Lenz
The rhythm of life is give and take. It is necessary to put things back into the system. To not do that is to foul your own nest - to use up all the natural resources greedily.
Frederick Lenz
When you go into samadhi, either salvikalpa or nirvikalpa, what happens is you erase, you loosen, the aggregates. You simplify them.
Frederick Lenz
To not follow the dharma, either intentionally or through lack of awareness, creates a very low level of attention. In this low level of attention we make all kinds of mistakes and we are unhappy no matter what good fortune befalls us.
Frederick Lenz
Nature is the endless reflective pattern of existence in eternity. As I sit here watching the leaves and watching their patterns, I'm reminded of so many things I've seen in other planes and in other worlds.
