When you draw from the endless awareness of nirvana, you are no longer a slave to fortune. When pleasant experiences come your way, you can enjoy them. But if pain and misfortune befall you, you can rise above them and remain unaffected.

The only reason you feel pain is because you're so busy looking at yourself instead of looking at the wonderful patterns of light. If you become absorbed in the wonderful patterns of light, then there's no pain.

If you are going to experience the ecstasy of enlightenment, it is not just going to be a phrase. You've got to work during meditation. So back to the navel center!
Frederick Lenz
Image
In Nirvana, it is you, my friend, who goes away. You take an eraser and erase yourself. It's like the Road Runner cartoons where in the middle of the cartoon, the hand of the artist appears on the screen and erases the Road Runner.

When it reaches a blockage, water find the easiest path around the blockage, or it continues to assemble, and flows over the blockage.

Image
An enlightened person is someone who shifts from one plateau of knowledge to another.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You can just stay in oblivion, going through your days and your life and your experiences, staying with your friends, family. If that suits you, it's good. But for some people, it's not enough.
Frederick Lenz
Image
When we dream, we create. All of life is a dream or a series of waking dreams. We dream our surroundings. We dream our friends, our relations. We dream our bodies. We dream our dreams.

Image
There is deception. People who think they are enlightened and it's just ego.
Frederick Lenz
Image
In lower levels things are dark, gray, experiences are shallow. You become alienated from those around you.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Very often, in order to bring about stillness we have to be tirelessly active in the outer world. You might suppose this would agitate the mind. It will not, if it is the dharma.

Watch out for negative power places on the earth, if you can see they are reddish and they twist your feelings. They don't vibrate at a rate conducive to humanity.
