You don't know why, but you know you have to go home. It's an eternal longing. It's Marvell's drop of dew wanting to go back to the sky. We're drawn by a force we don't understand, through worlds, through experience.
Frederick Lenz

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
The causal body holds the structure. The causal body is the coding. So you are not just scattered all over the ten thousand states of mind.
Frederick Lenz
Opinions are secondary when dealing with reality. They're subjective reflections.
Frederick Lenz
I entered a spiritual community when I was 20, which I was in for 11 year, with very strict meditative practices, with an Eastern teacher. It was very much like a religious order.
Frederick Lenz
Success and failure are terrible traps.
Frederick Lenz
Sometimes it is hard to see in life. If the fog rolls in we can't see anything. Most people get caught up in life that they forget the purpose of life is to be happy.
Frederick Lenz
I've never seen a society that thinks about sex so much and gets so little!
Frederick Lenz
Meditate on enlightenment. Read the exploits of the great teachers, the great saints. They'll inspire you. Their power is there.
Frederick Lenz
If you are not as happy as you used to be, chances are you are not meditating properly. You may be trying to skip steps. You are using power incorrectly. Your motives are not pure. You don't vibrate quickly.
Frederick Lenz
From my point of view, which is the point of view of no illusions, there is only winning and losing. You might as well be a winner.
Frederick Lenz
If you're very liberal, then you should go and find a very liberal Zen teacher, a liberal interpretation of the doctrines of the Soto or Rinzai schools.
Frederick Lenz
Why waste your time being around people who drag you down? You don't live forever, at least in this life.
Frederick Lenz
We want to be all things, not just to gain power over things - how infantile!
Frederick Lenz
The world has an ending and a beginning. It begins with you and it ends with you. The end of the world occurs when you make a major transition in attention.
Frederick Lenz
Through the study of Zen you can learn to move from lower to higher states of mind at will. Higher states of mind offer you a much more accurate picture of reality.
Frederick Lenz
I too have experienced the extreme pain of living, but I have also experienced some of its remarkable ecstasy.
Frederick Lenz
When thought stops, a doorway opens into dimensions that are pure and unassociated. They're nonbinding realities. They're non-samskaric, which simply means that they're beautiful they're ecstatic.
Frederick Lenz
Zen is the study of mind in all of its manifestations. The purpose of Zen is to be happy.
Frederick Lenz
You'll find that you will be able to reorder the island of your tonal so that it's in good shape - logical, orderly, neat, and well-defined.
Frederick Lenz
If you meditate and continue to have fun with yoga and Buddhism, you will amass knowledge and will move to a higher incarnation. In your next lifetime you will be much wiser, much happier.
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.
