More quotes by Frederick Lenz
When we erase perception, then we erase that which perceives perception. The universe dissolves and we see that it was never real to begin with.
Frederick Lenz
Dharma is the Truth that all of existence is. It does not disagree with anything. It is the perception of existence in its purest formlessness.
Frederick Lenz
Now, stopping thought is only the beginning. As Brahmananda, who was a disciple of Sri Ramakrishna, once remarked: The inner life begins with samadhi. This is an awesome thought, I realize, for the average person who meditates, that it could begin with samadhi.
Frederick Lenz
Many people excuse themselves by claiming that they don't have to do work anymore because they are beyond it. They are simply afraid of getting their hands dirty. Getting your hands dirty washes your being.
Frederick Lenz
Reincarnation is simply changing awareness. What you are reincarnating into are different states of mind. The whole show is on the inside.
Frederick Lenz
There is a spirit that guides us, if we will listen. It speaks softly. In order to hear it we must still our thoughts and meditate.
Frederick Lenz
If you follow anything far enough in the universe, it will eventually lead to light.
Frederick Lenz
Everyone is growing and developing. Everyone has to go through a trial and eror process of finding what is right.
Frederick Lenz
What a man must do is realize that his continued belief in the inferiority of women is going to produce a type of karma that is going to hold him back, and already has.
Frederick Lenz
We are made up of nothing. There is no self. We are whatever we decide we are.
Frederick Lenz
Feel the wind. This wind blows from world to world and from life to death. This is the wind of dharma. Be in love with the wind. It is an intimate lover. It enraptures you. It blows you through eternity.
Frederick Lenz
Those who practice lower sorcery hurt themselves the most because they interact with negative thoughts and apply power to them they devastate their own consciousness and their own lives.
Frederick Lenz
Everybody out there is just doing things for themesleves. So if you don't do that you've got to be crazy ... crazy about selfless giving!
Frederick Lenz
Love is not reasonable. If we could assign it to the reasonable world, it would not be useful.
Frederick Lenz
At the end of your life you will probably end up in an old-age home, or in a back room in one of your children's houses, left only with a handful of fading memories and a body racked with great pain and suffering.
Frederick Lenz
The judgment that you pass today will only hinder a person in their spiritual evolution. All you do is say to the person, psychically: This is what you are. You're fixed. You can't change.
Frederick Lenz
When you combine a media - bent on exploiting tabloid-type stories to boost ratings and circulation by innuendo and titillation - with unhappy or opportunistic individuals who have nothing going for them in their own lives, you get a bitter brew.
Frederick Lenz
Nirvana is a step beyond. You dissolve into the universe. The universe dissolves into you until there is no longer a difference. There is no sense of individual self as perceiver.
Frederick Lenz
The work that most people do in the world tends to deaden them, deadens their mind, uses up their energy and they get a paycheck and old age and not much energy. You get the check and they get your energy. That energy is translated into corporate dollars.
Frederick Lenz
Think of your mind as a muscle. The more you use it, the stronger it will become.
Frederick Lenz
