Free will exists and operates outside causality. It is not hooked to karma. Free will is like a well that is on your property. You can choose to draw water from the well or not.

Human beings going to their jobs and living their lives are unconscious. They don't know what's going on. They don't know why you are born or why you die.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Your life can be horrible or it can be incredibly beautiful. It can be boring or exciting. It's seldom in between. Your active use of will determines what will happen to you in this and other lives.
Frederick Lenz
Image
We're not really indigenous to this world, this world being a temporal plane of reality.
Frederick Lenz
Image
At the beginning and the middle and the end of all things, there is only the perfection of enlightenment that is nirvana.
Frederick Lenz
Image
It's considered very, very bad karma, if I can cut to the chase, to take power from a teacher and not use it for something very positive.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You may have had countless lives, and many more stretching before you, and what else have you got to do with your time?
Frederick Lenz
Image
Karma is not a receipt of a physical experience, because of what someone has done.
Frederick Lenz
Image
What we focus on we become. If you are just focusing on unhappy things, you will become unhappy. If you focus on happy states of mind, then it will grow in you.
Frederick Lenz
Image
In the beginning we define what is spiritual. But as you go on, you see that everybody and everything is an instrument of infinity.
