As spirits we have always existed in a generalized form, since we are all part of the universe. As individual spirits, we have existed for a timeless time.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
It is possible to renounce everything and attain enlightenment. But most people don't want to renounce they wish to run away from responsibility and hard work.
Frederick Lenz
The universe is made up of vibrating, pulsing light. When our attention level drops, we don't see that. Instead we see what appears to be a solid material world.
Frederick Lenz
You reincarnate forever because you exist forever. You can't die. You can't be born, your essence that is. You are on a big wheel.
Frederick Lenz
If you are unhappy - be that way in your bedroom - but whenever you come out into the world, in real selfless giving we push all of that aside and we smile, love and give to others.
Frederick Lenz
In Old Zen, the Zen Master would do literally anything to break down the concept of what the study was. He would present conflicting codes all the time, just to shake this fixation people had on how to attain liberation.
Frederick Lenz
Enlightenment is not about being political. It is not a social club. Ashrams often turn into that, I know. Societies of enlightenment often just become cliques.
Frederick Lenz
There is a lot of opposition. You will experience it. But the joys that come from the study, more than compensate for the opposition, in my opinion. It's a personal choice.
Frederick Lenz
Throughout the day remind yourself that you are moving through eternity. Be focused. Be centered. Be in the now. Know what is going on in the world. Read a newspaper once in a while.
Frederick Lenz
You don't want to become so sensitive that you can't interact with people in the world. If you get to that point, you are not practicing psychic development. You are running away from the world, and you've made yourself weak.
Frederick Lenz
If you just keep giving constantly, if you don't really take thought of your own welfare and your own awareness, but just give, beyond exhaustion - then your life will always be a constant progression.
Frederick Lenz
Every day work on your humility through your meditation, giving more of yourself, giving those things you don't want to give.
Frederick Lenz
The people that hurt you are the ones you love because you are the most open to them.
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
If you must go to a negative place of power, go to them in a very conservative way. You must go to them when your power is up. It is like going to war. You have got to be ready if you are going to survive.
Frederick Lenz
All success in sports and athletics, from the Zen point of view, comes from the mind. No matter what kind of shape your body is in, there is disharmony in the being.
Frederick Lenz
The danger to power is obsession - power junkies. You need a very strong mind and humor to balance yourself. If you don't, you will get shredded.
Frederick Lenz
If you have done your homework, then the slightest motion from the teacher can cause you to spin into hundreds of different states of mind. That can only happen for the prepared individual.
Frederick Lenz
The self plays among the waves of existence. It surfaces, it comes up for a while, and then it disappears again.
Frederick Lenz
Chaos is not disorder. Chaos is the totality of existence. You could call it God. You could use the term, the Tao. I like chaos. It means more to us in English. Chaos is all things, wild and wonderful, connected perfectly by the life force.
Frederick Lenz
As you feel more and more love, begin to smile, let go, be free.
Frederick Lenz
