Frederick Lenz
It is not bad living in a monastery. I've done it many times in many lives. But I think you can do a better job outside the monastery, if you have the necessary component parts.

There's no point in getting frustrated at yourself. Just be truthful.
Frederick Lenz
Men are suppressing woman politically, philosophically, socially, through denying them education, equal rights, equal employment, and just by setting up a description of the world in which a woman views herself as a vessel, as someone who's only there to have children, as someone who can't succeed, even spiritually.
Frederick Lenz
In the second stage we stop thought for limited periods of time.
Frederick Lenz
You could sit around and feel sorry for yourself or you can go out and do things for others.

I've never seen a society that thinks about sex so much and gets so little!
Frederick Lenz
When you meditate with an enlightened teacher, you will feel something from them. They just dissolve completely, absorption in nirvana, where they don't even have physical contact with this world anymore.
Frederick Lenz
The essential premise of Buddhism is that there is enlightenment, there is nirvana. Beyond this world, beyond all worlds, there's something radiant, perfect and eternal.
Frederick Lenz
Love is not reasonable. If we could assign it to the reasonable world, it would not be useful.
Frederick Lenz
What we are seeking is the nexus of all possible worlds and states of mind, which is within us. The source of yin and yang is within you.
