More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Unfortunately the student often feels guilt for not living the type of life that their Teacher suggested, or they feel that they are intrinsically bad and incapable of leading a higher life.
Frederick Lenz
If you can't feel grateful, if you're discouraged or depressed, then think of the fact that things could be a lot worse than they are.
Frederick Lenz
If you learn to lead your life strategically and strongly, you can overcome the opposition. But running away, you never overcome anything. The pathway to enlightenment is for the warrior, the samurai.
Frederick Lenz
Suffering follows the lack of wisdom.
Frederick Lenz
You must have tremendous power of focus to direct your life and not allow all these variant forces, different vibrations, to enter you.
Frederick Lenz
The time we waste never comes again. The opportunities we miss never come again. The loves we lose never come again. Indeed, in this world of constant change we are fortunate that these things never come again.
Frederick Lenz
As my meditative experiences grew, I had wonderful relationships. I met the most wonderful women, who meditated and shared certain understandings that I had.
Frederick Lenz
It is necessary to do a very thorough examination of your life and to discover whether the people in your life, no matter how much you love them, are using you or abusing you.
Frederick Lenz
Theoretically, everyone's inner being knows everything. There is a part of us that is aware of all things. But that doesn't necessarily do us a whole lot of good unless we are conscious of that.
Frederick Lenz
The end of this world occurs when you move from one world into another, from one reality into another.
Frederick Lenz
Zen was a reaction. Just as Buddha came into the world and spoke against the fall of Vedanta, so Buddhism lost its essence and became ritual. Zen was a reaction to that.
Frederick Lenz
My favorite cause is the enlightenment of others. I think that is the best place to put money. You get the highest yield in terms of karma on your money.
Frederick Lenz
An enlightened person is someone who shifts from one plateau of knowledge to another.
Frederick Lenz
Self-acceptance is involved in this process. You have got to be able to look at both your dark and your light side and not get enamored or depressed by either.
Frederick Lenz
Rama is a fairly common name in India. It symbolizes an individual who is interested both in enlightenment and martial arts. I do not claim to have any past life connection with the historical Rama. It's just a name I liked.
Frederick Lenz
There are other options that no one ever told you about. These are things mom and dad never explained to you your teachers didn't know they weren't enlightened. They weren't luminous beings that stood out of time and space.
Frederick Lenz
I think that was E.T.'s central appeal, personally. E.T. is this metaphorical journey, this strange Odysseus from another world, who just wants to go home. Obviously, home must've been better!
Frederick Lenz
There is wisdom to loving.
Frederick Lenz
One should never become devoted to a teacher, any more than one should become devoted to a statue of a god. There is only one thing to be devoted to, and that is your mind.
Frederick Lenz
Sometimes we have to be hard on ourselves. We've got to get on our case, if we are being sloppy, lazy, and indulgent.
Frederick Lenz
