More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Yoga means we accept responsibility for the tasks in our life, and we know that being a king, being an enlightened teacher, being someone who sweeps the streets, we know that nothing is a greater yoga than anything else.
Frederick Lenz
The dream appears to be real. It does really seem we are here in this world but this is not so.
Frederick Lenz
I think I've learned more from women than anyone else, and perhaps from love - what a wonderful testing ground, what a wonderful place to see and sense our limitations, to know that the pain reflects your state of awareness and not being able to hide from it.
Frederick Lenz
Most people suffer in love because of attachment. Attachment means we're interested in a net return on our investment.
Frederick Lenz
I studied with a number of different teachers. But really, I've never studied with teachers. To be honest, the only thing that's ever interested me in life is eternity. Nothing else makes any sense to me.
Frederick Lenz
A great deal of energy is lost in the study by people who interact with non-physical beings. They get into your mind and your body by approaching you in the dream plane, promising you powers, playing on your desires. They sap your life force.
Frederick Lenz
Enlightenment is part of everything and so our minds have to be very big to encompass all things, to understand all things - To see the tao in a grape, the act of sexuality, meditation, work, play, taking a shower, brushing your teeth, being sick and hurting.
Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
Intelligence is something that is not just thinking, it's feeling. Ultimately, the highest reflection of intelligent life is cooperative life in which all benefit.
Frederick Lenz
When you read Boethius and some of the Renaissance philosophers, they talk a lot about the other spheres. There's a music of the spheres. There's a music that's actually in the universe, they believed, that's out there in different dimensions.
Frederick Lenz
What does it mean to be psychic? Essentially it means to feel, rather than think all the time.
Frederick Lenz
Universities are very clarifying places of power, because everyone is focused on trying to figure out exactly what to do with their lives.
Frederick Lenz
There are many universes, countless universes, and many of them are invisible. We call these the astral planes, but they are as real as this world is and they're filled with beings that have life spans.
Frederick Lenz
I was very immersed in the world. I'm very worldly. I love world. I was immersed in my career, in school, in teaching.
Frederick Lenz
The idea of the walls of monastery was to keep everybody else out because you wanted to develop a certain type of life. Most people in the world had different ideas on the subject.
Frederick Lenz
The universe is holding congress with itself.
Frederick Lenz
Go directly to Nirvana. Don't pass go - or you'll have kids, you'll grow old together, you'll be born into another realm where you'll forget that there was even nirvana.
Frederick Lenz
You need to become a winner to go beyond winning and losing.
Frederick Lenz
Where is truth? Is there truth in what I am doing now?
Frederick Lenz
The first task is to discover the dharma by introspection, by constantly questioning yourself and asking yourself, What is right?
